Well with Rimmer Towers only about 15 mins (if I go the back roads from LGW) it certainly has an edge it's also a nicer place to be compared with LHR (natural light etc etc) on the downside esp in the summer chock full of folks going on their holidays with loads of bags and not a clue where to go and therefore impeding the Rimmerian progress. If its short haul and I can't go from LGW and there aren't other factors then it's LCY (about the same drive time as LHR and a far better and quicker experience and fewer ATC holds out and on the return I know lets play the 'how many times round the Biggin or Stableford or whatever hold' game) or even when FlyBE start the new routes Southampton (maybe a little longer on the drive) but much quicker car park to a/c and vice versa so it's still quicker than LHR. Which has been rightly noted earlier is a bit of a khazi
