800 miles ish north so defo down xx00xx00xxWww@Enter-QA@Com

I just say: 'I am going to London!.' Geographically it is 'down' compared to most areas of the country - which is why they will all soon be flooded!

'Up'/'down' - it's neither here nor there!.

Mind you, undergraduates often say that they are going 'up' to Cambridge or Oxford Universities!. Couldn't be a 'degree' of pomposity and superiority involved, could there!? Some will get their 'comeuppances' when they are 'sent down'!

Can't see the fuss over/about/with/from and other prepositions, as such small words!

Even the BBC newsreaders now say things like, "Crowds were protesting at fuel price increases!." One cannot protest AT an idea but only AGAINST it!. Of course, to be confusing, one can protest AT a venue!. I hope that you are gravitating towards my explanation and that you are not suffering from, rather than 'with', undue anxieties!.

I just hope that submarine commanders do not become confused when they order "Three degrees up bubble!." or "Three degrees down bubble!."!

Then there is the problem of cross-London travel!. I usually go 'across' London!. I wonder if other passengers go 'below' London!?

Thank you for bringing this up!. I am sure that we will all find our own level!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
