Postcodes define points for deliver of mail, not a large sprawl of buildings covering a large chunk of central Cambridge. 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. surname,suburb worked for us when I were a nipper, though mostly we put the road in, and later, a direction. Presumably your surname isn't Jones and you didn't live in Wales. Even the road wouldn't help much in some parts of Wales. My father-in-law during WW2 had an entire platoon of soldiers all named Jones. I don't know how he managed to keep up with them. |
