Let me be a pedant back at you - there is such a number, the spacing

Yes yes it isn't written in the 'approved' format, but thousands
(millions?) of Londoners do the same and manage just fine.

And many of them get very confused when I tell them my WC1 address and
020 3xxx xxxx number, because to them it's 'not a London number'...

Same problem here, in leafy Surrey. Non geographic numbers might seem
good to some people, but I don't like them.
