Chris, have you tried looking on Google Earth to see if your box is visible from space? I think all the photographing was re-done last year.

I'm at work so I can't have a look as my pesky security settings don't allow the downloading of google earth.

I was going to make a comment about removing the word "the" before TARDIS in your post, but there isn't one anyway ;)

The breaking strain is fast approaching, guns and riots.
Politicians gamble and lie to save their skins,
And the press get fed the scapegoats,
Public Enema Number One.

Hi PBN
Yes you can see my tardis in google earth, and Robert's first red phone box. Type in TN8 5DY, and as I remember, scroll slightly west, and a little north. A row of gardens north of the football pitch, a liitle blue square up by the house.
Thanks

Hi all
With the money I received from Robert for my birthday, I've finally gotten around to having some new transom signage made up.

I know they've gone wrong on the font, don't ask me how, they had the file with the right one, and yes, the blue background is a tad too light, but after three years, my pedancy had waned, and I quite the results.

And at last, I can read the legend, properly, in the dark

To me, it gives the ol' lady the "Earl's Court" kind of look.

Many thanks

Hi Chris, Ive never commented on this but I have to say she is really magnificent.
so let me get this straight,A thing that looks like a Police box standing in a junkyard,It can move anywhere in Time and space ?

Hi Chris, been a while. How are you?

The new signs are looking great, and Elsie has certainly grown up since I was last here!

Out of interest, how has the old girl stood up to the great British weather after all this time? From the pictures she seems to be as good as new.

why doesn't the Guide mention them? - Oh, it's not very accurate.
Oh? - I'm researching the new edition.
