I rang the local British Telecom telephone sales office to enquire if the
new exchange (a TXE4A, I believe - judging by its inability to provide
dialtone on offhook in about 50% of occasions) in the St.Albans (where I
live) supported TouchTone dialling. The person I spoke to said, and I
quote, "What's TouchTone dialling?". Sigh.

Hugh.
