I've tried to post this twice now, third time lucky ;)

I've added the GB_POSTAREA table with some 3000 primary postal area
entries, all with XY coordinates which can be used on www.multimap.com

This is a PHP based management interface to Firebird, so we can add
information directly into the database, but I plan to allow a more
controlled entry at some point in the future.
