we have loads of coloured books but none will give you the code as we don't use codes over here just names.

Most gadgets use weather.com feeds.  So go to weather.com and enter your city.  Look in the URL and grab the code

So if I go ther and enter London, I get http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/businesstraveler/local/UKXX0085.  The code is UKXX0085.

That worked fine, but think it's quicker to just type place name.
Manchester is UKXX0092
