When I was in Cambridge, I used a very short address that worked every
time. (Sidney Sussex, Cambridge). I've never had the opportunity to
have such a short address again.

That could cause problems with an item posted in Massachusetts.
Especially as there appears to be a Sidney Sussex College in New York,
New York.

I might reasonably expect an international correspondent to add "UK".
