if I book on the phone will I still be able to use avios to discount my fare (I am avios rich and cash poor at the moment....).

ta.
Yes it's normal ba.com doesn't like to book b2bs even if they are MCT compliant - MCT would be 35 minutes for this so it should be bookable. You will have to call to book it as a return. The terms and conditions for part pay with avios do say you should be able to do it either on ba.com or by phone with BAEC so that should work.
