Can you hear me now? standing on the bench

In the charming village of East Prawle in the UK, the only way to get a phone signal is by standing on this bench and facing west. [This is London via Mad4Mobile Phones].

"East Prawle, population 200, has two pubs and a small shop and its remote coastal location makes it popular with tourists.

After complaints from elders, stating that the bench was always full of muddy footprints, the parish council has voted to move the bench and install a £100 podium in its place.

It is believed the bench's unique quality was discovered by a holidaymaker who spread the information around nearby campsites."
