I wonder if the author posted the letter from a local post box. It could be that locality improves the chances of it reaching its desired address. E.g I wonder what happens if the letter was posted from a more remote location in the UK.
- Symbiote 4y agoAny post office anywhere in the UK would see the "SE" and know the letter should be sent to London, however that happens. Most people who live in Britain recognise the first part of postcodes for large cities and neighbouring areas. I'm sure post workers know all of them, they're mostly mnemonic. Kids in gangs use postcodes to define their territory, they're that easy to use. The small format is also seen on the back of many business letters as a return address.
