I had a superb meal in a Lakeland hotel recently. We're going back
ASAP, but in the meantime I emailed them for their menu.
I got this reply;
"Thank you for your kind report! We are glad that you enjoyed your
meal with us. Do you have a fax number as we've got a bit of a blip
in the system here and are unable to email the menu."

I use telephone broadband. Is there any way I can use it for fax, and
simply give them this number?

No, you need to use an ordinary 56k type modem. Your PC may already have
one. Cable it directly to the phone soclet, not via a broadband filter
then use a Fax programme to send and receive faxes. If you use W98 or XP
there is one there somewhere but its pretty laborious and while it can
send faxes I am not sure if it can them.
