House numbers

[TicklyT]

The worst ones to find in my exerience are ones in the high street.... Now where is number 95B? is that one of the offices above Tescos, or is it behind Pizza Hut? It is very rare to find any numbers at all on any buildings that any shopfitters have ever been near

I can't look for the company name because they haven't actually moved in yet.

Give them a ring to find out where they are?
Good idea! - except they are not able to answer the phone because I was going there to install their phone system

In Austalia I noticed houses had the number painted on the kerbstone outside

great idea.

Great idea...trouble is in this country everyone will park over them...

The worst problem is at night, specially parked cars on both side with my hazard warning lights on in the middle of the lane and cannot even see the house numbers but since I have bought this , it's a god send. It's a little heavy but worth it

Roughly, how long will a fully charged battery last Masona?

Don't know yet, will let you know at the of the week or before when the light is dim. I have losted my mobile phone tonight from the belt holder, must have been from the Christmas trees carrying, the light found it quick

Right here we go, house number I want is 895 London Road, driving along 891, 893, 1081, 1083. Whhhaaatttt postman said "895 is another mile down the road"

Spare a thought for the American delivery people. Depending on state, some roads have odds and evens both sides and some addresses have mahoosively long numbers like 112340. This is usually house number 340 on 112th Street. Some states the house number is in feet from a landmark down the road.


Just some useless info there whilst i'm bored

Froggies also use that method, "House number" is the distance from the end of the road

You know this JohnD? I have spent almost every holiday over the past 20 years in France and I never knew that. We live and learn.

my chum in Normandy pointed it out. I don't know if it applies in all departments.

It lasted all week and it's still fully charged but I only use for a few seconds just to see the house number, according to the instruction, a powerful 100w bulb provides up to 20 minutes continuous use.

This road was on my round for delivery, full of pot holes, now try and do 70 mph there then further up the road on 2nd piccy, you must slow down to
30 mph, I couldn't even do 5 mph

And this one here is last year Christmas ready to be taken away, it started growing again after 2 weeks and now rooted into the top of the pebbles into the earth, I have never heard this before specially when the bottom of the tree is cut square

It's not a target

it's a limit

 

[masona]

Okay, up to 70 mph
