    Re post code, we are wealthy acheivers, flourishing families, well off managers detached houses.

    In nice person interest we are -74 % Jewish.....which seems a bit odd.

    Is there away to check which houses on a map share postcode so I can test some of the other stats to the best of my knowledge?

    For our nearest neighbours the stats suggest as out on several things.

    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    That was really before my time/before I was reading that thread.... I don't think I read that thread. I don't even know what thread you mean.

    Or, I have Alzheimer's.

    Thursday: Baked 2 spuds - could only manage 1.
    Saturday: Ate that 2nd spud - really need another one.

    How does that happen???

    It won't be your house/postcode, it'll be an area where your postcode is in the centre probably. Must be a mix/match between populated streets and rural fields that means it works.... so in your case it's probably a 1/2 mile radius or something.... not that half a mile would get you much either.

    Sme where in my head I have recollection of reading or hearing it was 'about' a hundred houses in a postcode. No idea of where I might have thought that from.

    If its half a mile I know everyone (but one) and stats are definitely out. :)

    But I am even posher...although I don't own a house so it probably doesn't count.

    On the other site, my postcode has "comfortably off, prudent pensioners, elderly singles in purpose built flats".


    Errrrr.....
