I had a Glaswegian waiter in Edinburgh tell me he doesn't go back to Glasgow much because it's "too far." It's a 59 minute drive.

Europeans have a different concept of space. I've done many 5-hour-by-bus daytrips to New York from DC. But that's longer than London-Edinburgh on the Liner, which Brits will tell you is a journey.
