as I said, Free the Postcode & NPE Map are working on getting that data.
I'm currently on http://www.npemap.org.uk (Thanks by the way) I'm
getting some of them, its going to be pretty poor with regards

There are some rubbish listings too like 'Armed Forces' I mean how the

Oh well only another 130 manual entries to do :-(
