> A photographer travelling in London on vacation was inside a church taking photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read '£10,000 per call'.
>
> The American asked a priest what the telephone was used for.
> The priest replied that it was a direct line to heaven and for £10,000 you could talk to God.
>
> The American thanked the priest and went on his way.
> Next stop was in Canterbury cathedral where he saw the same golden telephone with the same sign under it.
>
> He wondered if this was the same telephone he saw in London and 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 travelled to Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Glasgow and Edinburgh and in every church he saw the same golden telephone with '£10,000 per call' sign.
>
> The American decided to travel to Hartlepool and in the first church he entered there was a similar golden telephone, but the sign under it read '40 pence per call.'
>
> The American asked the priest 'Father, I've travelled the UK and seen golden telephones in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to Heaven but in other churches the price was £10,000 per call. Why is it so cheap here?
>
> The priest smiled and answered, 'You're in Durham now, son......
> It's a local call'.
