The Dots, or, What if it were capital cities only?

What if we focused just on capital cities? That's pretty brass tacks. That would look something like this:

UK & Ireland

  • London
  • Cardiff
  • Dublin
  • Belfast
  • Edinburgh
    Then onto the European mainland

  • Brussels
  • Amsterdam
  • Copenhagen
  • Stockholm
  • Helsinki
  • Berlin
  • Luxembourg
  • Paris
  • Madrid
  • Lisbon
  • Bern
  • Rome
    Out of the west, into Eastern Europe

  • Warsaw
  • Prague
  • Budapest
  • Vienna
  • Bratislava
    And then into the Balkans, to finish up

  • Sofia
  • Belgrade
  • Podgorica
  • Skopje
  • Athens
  • Istanbul
    Well… that’s 28… still rather a lot, isn’t it? Enough? Too much? Doable? Sheer madness to attempt?
    Time for more hot water.
