Subject: [PATCH] Loosened Regex on GB postcodes

The space is casually ignored by customers. It doesn't really matter, and won't cause any delivery / billing issues.
Other option is formatting the postcode input to contain the space. (The second part after the potential whitespace is always [0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2})
