Huh ?

The postcode system cares nothing for counties and nothing in outer
Greater London has a London postcode.

Would you say that people think Kingston & Richmond & Twickenham are
"not in London boroughs" ?



Nope but "Essex Man" & "Essex Girl" jokes are often aimed at residents
of Ilford & Romford
