I think it's about time some people living outside the City of Brighton and Hove knew which town or county they're residing in.

I have observed that many of your writers who live in Southwick or Shoreham give their address as Brighton.

Do they not understand they live in West Sussex and not East Sussex?

There are boundary signs at Portslade and going into Fishergate, West Sussex.

The same kind of signs are quite clear on the sides of the roads, even when coming towards Brighton on the Old Shoreham Road and the bypass.

Perhaps it is time the postal numbers were checked out by whoever was responsible in the first place.

I am told that these postal numbers are very confusing to many householders who live on or near the West Sussex boundary.
