trivial amusement of the week...

something I discovered (...well, it's almost friday...)
1) go to: http://www.royalmail.com/paf/ (the postcode translator)
2) into "The Address Finder", feed the postcode obtained from:
http://www.uk-dso.odedodea.edu/menwith/
3) fail to be surprised at the result "no address found".
...assuming that this is not a cockup, it makes one wonder what other
"unpublished" postcodes exist, whether they are covered by the OSA,
what restrictions the royal-mail operates under, what'd happen if the
post got deregulated, etc...
