> An American photographer on vacation was inside a church in Oldham taking photographs
> when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read '£10,000 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 £10,000 you could talk to God.
>
> The American thanked the priest and went along his way.
>
> Next stop was in Manchester .
>
> There, at a very large 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 Oldham and he asked a nearby nun what its purpose was.
>
> She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for £10,000 he could talk to God.
>
> 'O.K., thank you,' said the American.
>
> He then travelled to Blackburn, Burnley, Rochdale , Littleborough and Todmorden.
>
> In every church he saw the same golden telephone with
> the same '£10,000 per call' sign under it.
>
> The American, upon leaving Lancashire decided to
> travel to Tyneside to see if Geordies had the same phone.
>
> He arrived in Newcastle , and again, in the first
> church he entered, 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. 'Father, I've travelled all over Lancashire and I've seen this same golden telephone in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to heaven, but in Lancashire the price was £10,000 per call.
> Why is it so cheap here?'
>
> The priest smiled and answered, 'you're in Geordieland now, son ... it's only a local call.'
