Today we ate lunch at our usual Friday Chinese restaurant. I noticed that the phone number is:

8231 2231

This is, according to the rules of the game (which I made up, and which include that 13 or 31 is an acceptable permutation of 22, as indicating a temporary division of 4 objects into sets of 1 and 3, or 3 and 1, before returning to the natural 2:2 division) reducible therefore, or translatable into, or substituted by 8222 2222. Even the 8 reduces to pairs of 22: 2+2+2+2; or 2x2x2: so in fact the phone number is nothing but a string of twenty-twos. The restaurant's name is T-Chow, pronounced T-Tchoo, shorthand, I now suspect, for TwentyTwo.
