@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social In the UK it'd be "Have you got a postcode for that?"
But sometimes you get operators who do know what they're doing. Like the last time I called 999:
Them: "Which service do you require?"
Me: "I don't know - there's a cow in the river."
Them: "OK, I'll call the pinder. Which bridge is it near?"
Me: [names bridge]
Them; "Thanks, I'll get onto it, bye."
(It's not that rare for a cow to get into the Cam. The pinder is the guy who knows how to persuade the cow to move to somewhere it can be rescued.)
