Basically between two villages. No houses, no pubs nothing (apart
fromÂ* a field on fire).

You know the names of the villages and that is all.

Could the phone operator not work it out?


Â*Would they be able to work with What Three Words ?


Field on fire next to the road between Branton and Auckley?

Assuming that I have the app installed how do I use it when I am on the
phone making a 999 call?


Switch to speaker mode and switch to the app, you can then use the app
while talking or just ask the operator to hold for a few seconds while
you check and then put the phone back to your ear.
