I'm not sure!!! Only know because my dad brought down all my old fishing stuff in the holidays as Isaac wanted to go fishing (until he realised that it meant sitting still for more than 2 minutes!)...as he dropped them off he left with the parting shot, "You know you won't be able to use those weights and hooks anymore!"

Once I'd explained what actually involved in fishing i.e. sitting still and possible having to hold a fish, the rods etc stayed in the garage!

 

[Mrs M]

Use phone boxes.
I had to venture into one a while back in a minor emergency when I'd forgotten my phone.
