The application form for the auction site in the UK prompts you to
such geographical inaccuracy. It's almost like using Encarta to tell
the history of Earth - pretty rough overall. For instance, I am
about 60 miles from London, but I had to put London (not Cambridge)
as the area.
Anyway John, I don't know if you are from the West Country, but
Bristol is close enough... it's "over there" :>)).
All the best

Whoever he is, he has no sense of geography at all! Says he's located in
Helston, Cornwall [~25 miles due east of Lands End] but gives the
country and region as "United Kingdom, Bristol". Bit like saying that
New York City is located in "United States, Boston, MA".
