I did because 'er indoors told me about it and I said I’d read that it’s actually shit and she asked why and I had to admit that I didn’t know.

Well my idea is for 5sqm. Much more accurate. Fuck you 3 words.

Can someone write me a program for it please?

Think end of the road used it for lineup announcements.

Don’t. Give. Afuck.

Think it’s quite useful in parts of the world without robust address systems and rapidly developing neighbourhoods. Similar with mobile wallets which haven’t really taken off in places like the UK but have been transformative elsewhere.

I have a mobile wallet.

Yes, and I made an EP which was all inspired by geographical locations and used the What Three Words map references as track titles.

(I actually did, this is not a weird joke)
