Good news!
Technology is wonderful when it works, and unreasonably frustrating when it
goes wrong!

David,
This is all fascinating stuff and I appreciate your offer of further help!
What has transpired is equally as fascinating in some respects and ... well
here goes!
Last night, when I was pressing buttons on the handsets, which were making
their usual healthy beeping noise, I was getting no signal between the base
and handsets. I checked the manual and tried, without success, to get them
communicating again. Whilst pressing buttons on the handset, I noticed our
radio controlled alarm clock (which has lived fairly near to the phone for
years) began to beep. Later we discovered the alarm time had changed very
considerably and more than you could do by hitting the button in error!
"Interesting," I thought, something weird is going on in some communication
now between the phone and clock!
I determined my next step was to unplug phone chargers today and then try
again. Before I could get round to doing this, we got side-tracked with
other things to do and had a cake cooking in the oven etc; then someone
flicked the light in our kitchen and everything in the kitchen appeared to
fuse! This meant a reset of our fuse box ... and is something we're soon
going to have checked out. Anyway, after doing this, a friend realised that
the display on the phone was no longer showing that flashing light and, when
I tried it, there was the dial-tone back again! I was very happy!
I later discovered that we had had a minor power cut yesterday afternoon, as
my friend had at her home, which I didn't notice at the time, so that had
obviously thrown the phone out in the first place.
As they say in the States, "Go figure"!
David, I don't know if the phone has any volatile memory but I had wondered
about an internal battery going ... but, thankfully, this was not the case
here.
Sorry for the rather long-winded, strange, explanation! <Smiles>
I'm sure glad to have my cordless back and working so that I can move around
and talk on the phone at the same time! How accustomed we become to this
freedom!
