A COLD CALL FROM THE PAST!

It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas.

This truly atmospheric picture was captured in the past couple of days in Dungloe.

It shows local lad Karl Wallace, 11, of Toberkeen, Dungloe on a public phone.

We think the great thing about the picture is not just the snow, but the fact that there isn’t a mobile phone is sight but rather one of the few remaining public phoneboxes left in the county.

In fact the timeless portrait could have been taken 20 years ago.

We doubt if the same portrait will be captured in another 20 years.
