On this french keyboard # is right middle row [ sequence jkl;'# ] - easy!
Same on the U.K. PC keyboards. For some peculiar reason they decided to put # on an extra key over on the right next to the enter key with ~ on its shifted position. Shift-3 is then £ (pound sterling).
The other thing I dislike intensely about the U.K. layout is that it's retained the original PC keyboard quirk of having \ located between Z and the left shift key. It's a horrible location. I use a U.S. layout keyboard at home, and whenever I have to go and do anything for one of my outside contracts I'm forever hitting \ when aiming for shift.
Funny you should mention that. BT now charges 20 pence per call to the speaking clock. I can call a time service in America for less than it costs to call the local one. Crazy, ain't it?
We must be getting close to another complete repaint of the vans and corporate logo fiasco!
At least they haven't started coming up with daft names like
Embarq or deciding that putting everything in lower case --
at&t -- somehow looks "cool & trendy."
