the site is for local people so the visitor will more than like know where they
live, the hard bit will be if they actually know what the county is called that
they live in.  Some people are easily confused by this!

When they ahve discovered that they have lived in Sussex for the last 10 years
and select it they will be presented with, wait for it.... a list of Towns and
cities that are in.... Sussex.  At this point they will either see that their
town or city is listed if it is they can select is along wioth the business type
if it's there (web designer)

The county list remains just in case they discover that they actually don't live
in Sussex at all and that they really live in Suffolk!  Also the county list
stayes because it is in selected mode otherwise without it the towns and cities
would be populated with 'all' the towns and cities for all the counties and no
one would know where to start.  For instance there are 6 towns called the same
and all in different counties.

If a business is in more than one town or county not a problem it gets listed as
many times as the company is unique. Does this making sense?
