According to Mapquest:

London - Gleneagles:  434.2 miles ( 698.7 km)
Edinburgh - Gleneagles:  42.0 miles ( 67.7 km)

So it would appear that your geography is not quite up to form either!
42 miles is definately quite near. Especially as Edinburgh is the
nearest large city with the infrastructure to support the protesters!

> But you can cause more damage in Edinburgh. Huzzah!

Actually, a large influx of people would cause more damage in
Gleneagles than it would in Edinburgh, which at least has the
infrastructure to support them. But you don't seem to be thinking about
this at all.
