	I wanted to create a similar shapefile like this
	(http://old-dev.openstreetmap.org/~random/postcodes/) for my area.
	The first step is to extract postcodes in OSM.
	The problem there several postcode variations in the database
	
	addr:postcode
	postal_code
	is_in:zip
	
	Some are in node (POIs) others in ways (building).  Any advise on
	extracting this data as input to makeShapeColoured.py?

	cheers,
