Really what Prefixes ?
My Sis is on the way from Insch AB52 to Weymouth DT4
1ST leg last night was a stop on that A74 at a service TravelLodge
Abington services ML12 went 207 miles thats around a real 30 mile
difference. Scotland is way to hilly but lookin on Google maps
Aberdeen to the place name for ML12 if u dont go the Mway
its bang on. I really could do with adding routes in it tho.
I have joined in the FreeThePostCode movement then we can all
have our own north and easting fixes to our post codes without
the PO copyright nonsense.
Every phonebox in the UK has its own pcode that  helps
for the routing as would road junctions.
Thanks for that.

I dont envy your trip well maybe the 1st 200 miles
thats ok. Did u take the route roughly indicated by
the red lines on the 2 attached pics ?
Every problem I get with this is from the east coast
in  JockLand switching over to Glasgow south to
pickup the A74 (M)
I will have to alter the the northing and easting above
Hadrians wall I guess to incude a % for up and down
hills

Nope

A99/A9 to Inverness
A9 to Perth
A9/M80 to Glasgow
M74/A74 to Penrith
A66 to Scotch Corner
A1(M)/M62 to Hull

roughly.

They all do that A74 (M)
Ok its quicker but if u went the red route its
80 miles less.
My daughter does your neck of the woods a lot
she visits path labs in the north and Scotland.
Now she has gone national for some reason and
the feed back from her is mostly spot on.
Postcodes in close proximity are the worse
like London W1 W2 N1 from the SW part of
W1 to the NE part of  N1 goes about 10 miles
the nearest distance is a footstep
The 80 mile defecit on your trip was not the hills
but you went the long way around coz its quicker.
Feedback from couriers was always a good thing
in the past as you got things from regular routes
after many different people had done it with tachos.
For any Mexians reading this tachos are attached
to the speedos in trucks so the cops can spy on
drivers and not somthin you eat.

OK, so now we agree your software is pretty accurate - when are releasing the source?

Roy u mean when will I turn it into a dead balls accurate component
of the UK pcodes and lookup tables FOR SALE ?

Sis just came through via text with AB52 to ML12 207 miles then
ML12 to B36 Frankley services 123 miles then B36 to DT4 172
Miles then DT4 to SP6 44 miles
I could post a missile in a letterbox with this but I need to know
whats under the co-ords.
I'am working from lat-long converting that to decimal lat-long
then into northing and easting.
Northing and Easting is great for us as an island u take the 0.0
position in the Atlantic SW of our islands then go North and East
in 1 mtr increments. All you need is the lat-long of everyones
doorstep and u have the whole thing.

Oh did u crack the password on the tables yet ?
