Because Americans have no concept of north, east, south and west?
Huh?? I never said Americans didn't have a concept of N, E , S , W!
I was just pointing out (in case they didn't know - and why should they?) that if you looked at a map of England; North Yorkshire is at the top and Somerset is at the bottom.
You cannot be suggesting that word North can only be used to describe somewhere in the North of the country?

Sorry, but don't really understand where Postcodes come into it, and what you mean, I was merely trying to keep it simple, in case jeddeth had no idea where, on our little island, it was:
The point I was trying to make was that the designs were sent to specific builders from the home office, and therefore in different parts of the country they would be pretty much the same, maybe I should have worked out the approximate mileage between them ~shrug~
I know some villages around here that have cr*p council (HA now) estates, and many village estates are still 'social housing', but
in general you are right, even some of the houses in knowle west (bristol) have been bought! don't know why, suppose some wanted to climb aboard Maggies 'Own yer Own' bandwagon.
