Ah, he was referring to 'fags'. I was really struggling with that one...

(Been a few years since I have been to the greatest city on earth, do they still have the phone booths? In the states pay phones have become extremely rare thanks to cell phones. Wouldn't be surprised if other cell phone heavy countries in the world also did away with them, but the red phone booths are such an iconic part of London, it'd be really a shame to see them disappear.)

Here and there, but their numbers have dwindled in the last 20 years - initially through modernisation (they were replaced by more 'contemporary' glass and steel booths in the 80s and 90s), and yes, phone booths in general have become less important thanks to the mobile phone (cellphone) scourge!

Covent Garden would seem to be the best place to look for them now... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_telephone_box
