 A217 , do they have a clue ?? - Crankcase

>> I dunno. No expert myself. But this is an example of what I get; (
>> I think this will work)


Thanks - both helpful and odd. At least it helped me to see where on the screen the blasted thing appears.

If I drop a pin pretty well exactly where you did, yes, postcode appears.

If I drop a pin outside my old office in Cambridge (Tennis Court Road/Downing Street intersection), then nope, no postcode for me.

If I drop a pin outside my house, or anywhere (so far) in my village, which is about ten miles from Cambridge, no postcode for anything.

So whatever the Google algorithm is, it produces differing results across a pretty small area. I'd not want to rely on it.

Thanks also for the Whatsapp explanation - I learned a few things, but it's confirmed it's not really something I'd have a use for.

I know my sister was "told" by her kids that they all use it and she should too. She actually read all the terms and conditions (she's like that with with everything, and installs/runs virtually nothing) and refuses to have it, though I don't know on which details she based that decision.

My second sister is the opposite, cares nothing about any kind of security and will chuck anything anywhere without a second thought, I believe. I think she even has Facebook.

And my third sister is likely to say "what's a mobile phone, oh I can't be doing with all that technical stuff", but then she's the eldest. I don't know if she actually has a phone come to think of it (and I don't know the numbers of the other two.)
