That's a good question. I've just had a look at the ACTMAPI site that used to have house/block numbers, but they've dissappeared. I'l keep searching.. Nick On Mon, Jun 13, 2011 at 9:24 PM, Franc Carter franc.car...@gmail.comwrote: On Mon, Jun 13, 2011 at 7:37 PM, Nick Hocking

Ah-ha. I think there is a simple answer. Despite being a really long road/s I don't think anyone actually lives on it. There's always space between it and the houses, so I'm not sure there will ever be any 33 Horse Park Drive Cheers Nick PS - ACTMAPI site must be under change, even the road

Hi - one for amusements sake One of my pet peeves is the way that some streets have (over time I hope), been chopped up in to separate segments in a way that finding a house number without a gps is maddening. I'm curious - what's the worst case of Dissected Street Syndrome(tm) that people have
