I agree I use an electronic map, it has both road atlas and A to Z built in at the push of a couple of buttons :laughing:

Just tapped the postcodes into google maps on my iPhone, ch4 0pd is Fairfield road, looks like a housing estate.

The second postcode, ch4 odr, the pin comes down on the main airport building just off the A5104 Chester road.

The distance between the two is a about a mile, gotta love google maps :smiley:

Just because it comes up un-named road doesn’t mean it won’t take you to where you want to go. I just put the second one into my TomTom iPhone and it came up un-named road but when I looked at the turn by turn instructions the penultimate road was Chester road which is what some of you lot have got. If you put the postcode into Google maps the pin drops just off Chester road down another road which is un-named on Google maps too.

sometime I did, but not always, in an ideal world all delivery addresses would be complete and accurate, but in my experience they rarely are either.
Quite often when I have loaded from Italy the address might be for example

TKX Central distribution
Watford
California Drive
WF10 5QH

And it is only because of the instructions coming from the UK agents that I knew the delivery was around Leeds area and not Watford, however, the post code was always correct.
