they must have known - living in a place like that you soon get used
to explaining no, your address lookup won't work or don't bother
asking me for my postcode, you won't find it whenever someone asks
for your address.
I seem to remember some banks won't let you open accounts if your road
isn't in their map.. good incentive for someone to map their street!

I had to pick up an eBay purchase in Haverhill (Suffolk, UK) today and relied
on my Suffolk street atlas to get me there. Unfortunately the place the
seller lived wasn't listed. They lived in ** Walk, and being a Walk
this generally leads between two streets that cars can access. So their
address wasn't in the index of the street atlas.
I was tracking my journey though, so looked at the OSM data when I got home.
Their address was already in there. I should have thought to look before
setting off.
