If I have to go to the UK, generally I have no problems flying
into it, as long as it's not one of the London airports involved. After all, once arrived, all that can happen is they throw me out of the airport for being a prick so no problems there
However, when it comes to escap... err, leaving the country, I have to choose between a two to three hours flight for about £30.- or a six to nine hour train ride for about £300. Well, there is no question, the train wins hands down every time
