True but many numbers give big clues to their geographical location.
I certainly like to know if a call is from 7PAD dington, 8HAR row or
8COL indale
Even though it's not so clear any more, a lot of that is true.
7BER mondsey, for example... though the only number I watch out for there
is sadly not a 7237 but a 7232.
Of course, HENdon became, through all the changes, 8201 - presumably
because they tied it in with COLindale.
The Hendon Exchanges became 202 (Sunnyhill) and 203 IIRC. 201 is a
newcomer, as is 209.
