Londoners!!
******RANT MODE ON!************
When giving out your address please say that you live in London ffs!
I've had 3 people email me their addresses this week (non clinic related) and every one has just said for EG
1 main street
Sw8 3rl
Or the like!
Do you think every one outside the m25 should automatically know all London post codes !!!
*****Rant mode off*******
Just me?

Not just you. But it's normally people from the US, who assume you know what all the two-letter state abbreviations mean, for example.
As for London, the other annoying thing is "Londoners" saying the STD code for London is 0208 or 0207. NO IT FECKIN ISN'T! It's 020. the '7' or '8' are part of the number!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So your number is 020-7123-4567 NOT 0207-123-4567 ... How feckin' hard is it, especially as you bleddy live there!!!!!!!!!!!!

why the **** should I have to google someones address when I have already asked them for it! Is it that hard to right an extra word or are they ashamed of coming from the dirtiest place in the world to name it!!
It's almost like text speak otherwise known as being too fe**ing lazy to right one extra word that tells us normal folk where in the country you live!
(not moaning at you Dedrater!)
