Ports and post codes

[vilakins]

I just saw on teletext (TV text news) that NZ is building a new prison in Port Vila. :-P Apparently the two existing ones are "on their last legs". I think Vila would prefer them that way. For that matter, he'd also rather it was the other sort of port that was named after him.

And NZ has just revamped all its post codes. [rolls eyes] I now have to order new address stamps and stickers. Oh joy, though a better system was needed. So, those of you who have my snail-mail addy, my post code is no longer 1005, but 1072.

Even with postcodes, we'll still get the occasional letter addressed to another number 9 in the area

Ah the dyslexic postman gets around. We have one who can read numbers but not letters, the appropriate numbers on the Hill get the letters for all the other streets that have those numbers in.
