Then I go to a Boots store and print out 6 passport sized photos from my phone for £0.32 - simple! If I can't find a wall, I'm just cheeky and sit in the photo booth itself and take the photo with my smartphone still! | |

Not very central but land expensive enough that the supermarkets didn't waste space on photo booths. I went hunting for one and was told that two had been removed in recent years. | |
