Why are there British red telephone boxes in Lille?
I'm currently living in Lille, northern France, and I've noticed a few of the old British red telephone boxes here, e.g. there is one in the centre of the town, in Rue des Tanneurs, just off Rue de Bethune/Rue du Sec Arembault. I was wondering if anyone can tell me why they're here and how they got here please? Thank you! Additional Details There is also one in the grounds of a building in Roubaix, near Lille. Two British phone boxes in the same area of France seems unlikely to be a coincidence to me.
It's a question of fashion. All the North of France is "occuped" by lots of British people and it's the way to greet 'em (I'm @ Lille too)

some of them were auctioned off, so its not suprising that they may be seen in other countries.

I saw one in Buenos Aires a couple of years ago. I suspect that they are now all over the world. I know many were bought by Americans (no surprise there) and I did here tell of a company that was converting them into shower cubicles although I have never actually seen one of those.
