The one that started it all was Oslo (Torp) which is also 54 miles
away it seems; but Frankfurt (Hahn) is 65 miles, Stockholm (Skavsta)
56 miles, Stockholm (Vasteras) 54 miles, Paris (Beauvais) 42 miles.


Clapham (Junction) 2 miles, Islington (Highbury &) 1 mile


Ha! You have a point John...


Mornington Crescent 26 miles (yes, really; Mornington is a road near
Welwyn).

....but oh dear, we could go on all day about this!

Loughborough (Junction), 116 miles.

Which reminds me, given the potential for confusion it has unwittingly
spawned, I must find out why Loughborough Road, on the edge of
Brixton, was so named...
