Hi Everone,
My name is Andy and I live near Northampton, which is pretty much in the middle of England.
I've been a member of this forum for a while now, but today is the first time I've posted.
I've tended to mostly post in the groups on Facebook until now, I know there are lots of people who don't do facebook, but I find it very useful for my many hobbies.
I guess I've been collecting phones for around 25 years, but certainly more so in the last 5 years or so since i joined our THG
I have a large collection of probably nearly 1000 phones, most of them are on display in my bedroom, which is not really a bedroom, but a phone room with a bed in it!
It looks like there's an awful lot of reading to do in this forum
I look forward to reading all about your collections
Andy
Hi Andy!

Welcome.
1000 phones? :o
We need photos! :) Start a new thread in 'My Telephone Collection' (Collector's Corner). We would love to see your collection and your display.
Lots to read here, remember to use the handy 'search' field (above). Enjoy!
1000 phones? No wonder prices here in the UK have risen!!! ;D
Here's a photo, though it's an old one. You can see the bed in front of the window :)
WOW, Now that's a lot of phones in one room! :o
Is that a chrome 3 slot I see?
Yes it's a chrome 3-slot, it looks nice, but it's a bit of a bitsa or a frankenphone :-)
Welcome Andy, that's a nice collection of phones you have, thanks for the picture.
Welcome Andy....impressive collection. Can you post some pictures that just hit areas of your collection so we can see the phones?
A bed in the phone room, Dr Freud might have an opinion 8) ....Doug
Here are a few random shots from the past
I'm currently re-arranging my displays to fit more in
I hope I can add more than one photo at a time

You take 'how many phones can I squeeze into one room' to a whole new level - you have them hanging from the ceiling too! ;D (Better than Toby Jugs any day)!!!
*You can add up to six photos per post.
Give your collection photos their own thread (as per my reply above) so we can all find them easily in the future. :)
I tried, but I could only seem to load one photo at a time?

Write your text in the text box.
Tap on 'attachments and other options'.
Add a photo via 'choose file'
To add another photo to the same post click on '(more attachments)' which is directly underneath 'choose file'.
Repeat to add up to six photos.
(See screenshot below)
:)
ah I see
Thanks, I'll give it a try
Andy, Welcome, and a great collection.
D/P
Thank you :)
Hi Andy. Welcome to the obsession, er... hobby! Amazing collection. I think this is the forst time I have seen a collection that rivals Dougs!
Thank you Harry
Wow - and I thought my collection of just over 100 phones was a good size! Clearly I need to up my game.
Just need to have a conversation with top management (ie the wife) about where they are going to go. I'm sure it'll go just fine.......
;D
Welcome and thanks for the pics you have put up. they're the first I have seen that magnify portions of the picture after first expanding them.
