Of course there are Canadians living in Niagara Falls, Ontario who are about half a mile from the United States, but I would prefer not to tell many of them that they were American!

Distances may sometimes seem trivial but they can mask a wide division. From up here, Australia and New Zealand seem pretty well the same, but I doubt that Mike would agree!

After all the population of England alone, let alone Scotland and Wales, is much greater than either of our countries, probably about the population of both put together. So you have to expect that smaller distances have greater cultural influences in such a concentrated island.
