Hi all,

 

Good to see those who came to the social in Coleshill last night. As
I mentioned, I've got the locations of all the postboxes and post
offices in the UK (taken from this FOI request
<http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/postbox_data_in_central_colle
cti_2> ) in Scraperwiki here:

 

https://scraperwiki.com/scrapers/uk_postboxes/

 

(Ignore what it says about the error, all the data is there). If
you're not familiar with Scraperwiki, you can query the data and get
it back in a variety of formats by clicking 'Explore with API'. It's
basically SQL, so if you know what you're doing with SQL, then you
should be good.

 

If anyone wants any pointers, let me know. Will be interested to see
what people do with it!

 

Cheers

 

Stuart
