AFAIAA, Magrathea don't offer access to 112/999, but this is no great loss given that mobile phones are cheap, ubiqitous, and work pretty much everywhere in the UK. Even hermits have them :) Given the recent London experience should mobiles be used as a backup to proper land lines..??????
112/999 takes priority over regular calls. There doesn't seem to be any evidence that calls to 999 from mobiles were any more prone to failure than those from landlines. -- Fashion is what you adopt when you don't know who you are. - Quentin Crisp
