Depends if Noddy's written the postcode properly.
Eg DL = Darlington, DS = Dorset.
Another classic is W5 =West London, WS =Walsall and B5 = Birmingham, BS = Bristol
If Noddy sent his cheque with a dodgily written postcode, and didn't put his own addy on the back of the letter, then it's sitting in a sorting office waiting to be claimed.
