little pigeon taking a break in the heat…

This sign always reminds me when the fax came out…
they are still widely used around the world,

For a certain generation,in the 80’s that horrible beeping noise followed by reams of paper flopping out of the fax machine will never be forgotten.

This photo doesn’t inspire me, but it certainly made me giggle at my memories…

Well spotted and captured, sitting on the taxi phone ad ;-)

We were still using fax machines when I retired from the NHS 8 years ago although it was getting used less often.

A sign that so well displays the passage of time and how life changes. I remember being awed at the technology of the fax machine. I found it an amazing mode of communication at the time. I still do, actually.

I thought the fax machine was pretty redundant these days so you have surprised me. I never used one but occasionally used the fax number by mistake instead of the phone number……the pigeon is reminding everyone that he came first!

pigeon post versus fax !!!
Fax machines , always seemed to jam in my days , and used lots of paper and ink !!!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

She has found the perfect spot to watch all the coming and going without being right out in the open. And the sign is living proof of how things have changed!

Perhaps waiting to use the telephone?
