Odd results for 'east London' in search #330

'South London' works very well, but 'East London' brings up: http://www.fixmytransport.com/issues/browse?name=east+london.

I suspect this is because there's no 'East London' in the gazetteer and it's dropping through to a 'sounds like' search, assuming that there's a typo. Probably it shouldn't do this quite so eagerly, or at least present the results in a 'did you mean' type way.
