London Airports

Today takes me through London airports for the first time in a long time.

It is easy to remember why the London's airports are alternately the best and the worst in the world.

The good is – of course – the multitude of connections, options and the ability to access almost any part of the City. This presupposes that 'The City' is where the action should be. Which is arrant nonsense, but until the revolution we are stuck with this.

The worst is – of course – the jobsworths and the pathetically under-resourced connections, which mean that any transit through the airports is doomed to meet with 'computer says no!' and a singular inability to deliver on expectations.
