Geocoder returns incomplete postcodes, better handling needed #20

Sometimes, the Geocoder will return an incomplete postcode (ie SE4 instead of SE6 4NX) and thus cause the area lookup to fail. Some method of ensuring valid postcode will have to be implemented.

Currently an error message is displayed to signify an erroneous postcode.

Sorry, but unless I can somehow get to the Postcode Address File, I can't fix this.
