@Londonsteve, I’d love to take the train for international journeys but it ain’t going to happen any time soon.

To get to Vienna, I need to change in Cardiff, Paddington, St Pancras, Brussels and Frankfurt – six trains, any of which could be delayed. With luggage. I can’t buy a through ticket, and some of the trips aren’t available for sale until the cheap tickets have sold on the other legs. And it still costs me £400 to get to Paddington.

Or I drive to Heathrow or Bristol and fly direct.

Which is better. Erm, let me think…
