    Whether it be by car, plane, bus or train. In the UK's case, much of our road and rail networks are centred on London, and for some journeys there are no real alternatives than to travel via the capital.

    Rarely ever. High prevalence of large airports, two of which are within a reasonable driving distance.

    I think this applies more to European countries than the US.

    Not often. I only ever go to Madrid just for visiting some of my girlfriend's family members, really not a fan of that city.

    Rarely. Only when I go the airport. All South,West, East and North-bound trips allow me to avoid it.



    Wake up and smell the coffee.

    Never, no real reason to go to Canberra unless you're a politician or buying fireworks. It's a detour from the Hume Highway between Melbourne and Sydney, the only cities of importance in the country.
