Crown Dependencies
The Channel Islands and the Isle of Man established their own postal administrations separate from the UK in 1969. Despite this, when they were subsequently postcoded they adopted the UK format, with Guernsey postcoded in 1993 using area GY, the Isle of Man postcoded the same year using area IM, and Jersey postcoded in 1994 using area JE.

Famous quotes containing the word crown:
“no thread
Of cloudy silver sprinkles in your gown
Its venom of renown, and on your head
No crown is simpler than the simple hair.”
