I found one good parts supplier who does mail order, the number was on the wall of the office, but I think someone chucked it. :-(

IIRC, the name of the company was Healeys, or Healeys Tools, or something similar. They were recommended by Bosch as a distributor of their parts.

Er, (020) is London.

Ahh that's why it was familiar :-) The address though is distinctly foreign!

None. No country code starts with 0. They all start with + (if you do not have a + key on your phone you will not be able to dial direct. Call 155 and ask the international operator to dial the + for you).

You could also try here, I think it may be the company Lurch was referring to,

That's the one, I was just about to have a look for it! I'll make a note of that and stick it back on the wall.

Been there done that. ;-)

Healy's as mentioned below.

They have a link to their Ebay shop on the site where you can buy some of the backing pads straight away.

Where can I find that link to the Ebay shop, I've looked through their web site?

Ok, thanks found it now.

Not so. The + is just a placeholder for a particular country's international access code. 00 in the case of Britain.

Perhaps they have a London phone number diverting, or using Voice over IP, to their foreign office.

This *is* a wind-up - isn't it?

I think so :-) Been reflecting on this - the change to the new telephone codes for London must have coincided with a change of job where I never call London anymore. Strange.

But the international access code is not part of the country code.

Slightly :-)

I remember reading a text describing the antics of some phreakers who intercepted calls to the DQ positions in America.

"The number you need is 4127 and a half. Do you have a half key on your phone"

and

"Is that person black or white? Only we have different directories"

I've got one of these wonderful keyboard with extra keys for every imaginable function (help, print, shopping, finance, chat, email, etc -- which I never use) but no key labelled 'any'.

The old Wang terminals had a dedicated 'help' key and I heard of one secretary who phoned the helpdesk in anger. She'd been pressing the 'help' key for half an hour and no-one had come to her assistance.
