Phone charge

[El Dude]

An American photographer on vacation was inside Westminster Abbey taking photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read '£1,000 per call'.
The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by what the telephone was used for.
The priest replied that it was a direct line to heaven and that for £1,000 you could talk to God.
The American thanked the priest and went along his way.
Next stop was in Lincoln
There, at the cathedral, he saw the same golden telephone with the same sign under it.
He wondered if this was the same kind of telephone he saw in London and he asked a nearby nun what its purpose was.
She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for £1,000 he could talk to God.
"O.K., thank you", said the American.
He then travelled to York , Durham and Liverpool
In every Cathedral he saw the same golden telephone with the same '£1,000 per call' sign under it.
The American, upon leaving England decided to travel to Wales to see if the Welsh had the same phone.
He arrived in Cardiff, and again, as he entered the cathedral , there was the same golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read '50 pence per call.'

The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign. "Reverend, I've travelled all over England and I've seen this same golden telephone in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to heaven, but in England the price was £1,000 per call. Why is it only 50 pence here?"
The priest smiled and answered, "You're in Wales now, son" ..............






"It's a local call."

Nine actually; six Church of Wales and three for the left-footers.

Oh..... and in the interests of multi-culturalism , two mosques including one in Cardiff which dates from 1860, the first one in the UK.

Just up the road from me, a Buddhist temple which has its own sacred elephant.

And the occasional chapel as well!
