Very good if you put the town/city on it. It may be delayed a few days as the machines will sort it to the postcode on the parcel, but eventually a human will recognize it ha's been misrouted and send it on to the right office.

Best to not use a postcode if you are not absolutely sure it is correct. The mail centres only look at the postcodes.
