732.0. "Urgent Request for Address Verification" by MAJORS::ROWELL (I left Hotel California !) Tue Jul 27 1993 10:22

    
      My Mother-In-Law recently recieved a letter written on the behalf on an
    old friend of hers. It seems that this old friend is rather ill, and
    in hospital, with what sounds like not long left. My MIL wishes to
    contact the person who wrote the letter.
    
      The letter has an address on it, but is difficult to read, and I
    was wondering if someone could verify the address, and perhaps find the
    telephone number for me.
    
    The surname is RASHBROOK. I'm sorry, but I don't know the initial.
    The address is  2254 Cooperidge Drive
    		    Saanichtow B.C         ( I think. This is the word we
    					     can't make out. )
    		    V0S 1M0		   ( Is this correct ? could be
    					     VO5 IMO ?)
    
    Thanks for you help,
    Wayne.

732.1I can help a little ...PEARS::HUBERTue Jul 27 1993 13:0215
    Can't help you on the telephone number -- but I know the area quite
    well - I grew up there !:-)
    I don't know where Cooperidge Drive is but the village is 
    SAANICHTON, B.C., and it is V0S 1M0.
    
    Saanichton is on the west coast in the greater Victoria region 
    on Vancouver Island.
    
    You might want to try international information for the number. I know
    the area code for that area is 604 and the first three numbers of
    the seven numbers will in all likelyhood start with 652-????.
    
    Hope this helps,

    Call - 604-555-1212 for directory assistance in area 604(all of British
    Columbia). Tell the operator your story and in all likelihood, they
    will either help your or direct you to someone who can.
    
    Cheers!

732.3Much appreciatedMAJORS::ROWELLI left Hotel California !Wed Jul 28 1993 14:396
    Thanks for your help. As we are in the U.K., finding the telephone
    no. may prove too expensive for my MIL, but I'll give her the phone
    no in -1 anyway.
    
    Thanks again,
    Wayne.

    Wayne, you can call the operator (in England) and ask for International DQ
    (Directory Enquiries) for Canada and they are often very helpful ...
    and have been know to call Canadian DQ *for you*!
