International Addressing Guide

Say you want to send a letter to Gibraltar. You've never sent a letter to Gibraltar ever. Never fear, the internet is here. I present "Frank's Compulsive Guide to Postal Addressing". It has answers to all of your questions, links to other postal guides and so much more. I'm still working slowly through the information it presents. Wow.

Thanks, uh, Frank, I guess. Fun fact: cancelling postage is called "franking"; so your compulsion is a true calling.

As someone who used to read the Post Office Guide for fun, I found this fascinating too. I'm disappointed to hear Ireland has got postcodes now.

Just a little nit-picking, though; franking is marking an envelope to show postage has been paid. Cancellation is marking an adhesive stamp to show it has been used, which is not quite the same.

I relish your correction. No, seriously! I really do. Thanks Alan!
