Which way are we looking?



This quiz is a lot easier than the one I posted on Saturday. I suspect that several of my readers from the UK have sailed these waters and will get it right immediately.

Oops. That's a clue.

So the questions are...

1. What are we looking at?

2. Which way are we looking?

3. Where was the photo taken from?

4. What did Tillerwoman and I have for lunch?

5. Where is the nearest phone box that isn't a phone box?

Wow. My readers are so wise.

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Yes
4. Actually dressed crab - and mussels - on the quay in Swanage.
5. I have no idea either, but O Docker will probably work it out!

Well done. Five gold stars for JP.

OK, you brought it up.

It happens you're not more than a few hundred yards from a phone box that isn't a phone box.

BT has a map of all of them on the web page about their 'Adopt a Kiosk' program. There's a veritable exchange of them in Swanage (I'm assuming exchange is the correct collective term for British phone boxes).

I hope whoever thought of this program at BT got some extra clotted cream for his or her efforts - or whatever British telephone workers are rewarded for brilliant ideas.

It allows the phone company to appear a sensitive, feeling, community-aware utility-with-a-heart while saving a bundle in removal and disposal fees.

You are looking seaward.
You are looking the right way.
The photo was taken near a plant.
I don't have any idea about the lunch, but I hope that you and Mrs. Lord T enjoyed it.
the nearest phone box that isn't a phone box is 27 feet in front of me, but I don't know how you could know that.
