Where I live, the numbers on each street start from the end nearest the City
centre with even numbers on the right, odd numbers on the left (there's that
odd equating with left again which we had such an interesting discussion
about).  The houses on the right side start at the end of the road with
number 2, but there are two rows of houses running at right angles to the
'Drive' on the left side.  I live at the corner of the 'Drive' and the
'Gardens' but the house fronts onto the 'Gardens' so I live at number 2,
whilst my next-door neighbour, whose house, though further along from the
beginning of the street, is the first one fronting on the right hand side of
the 'Drive' lives at number 1. To add to the confusion, the house opposite
is number 20!
