Maybe if you live in Edinburgh it might *seem* nearby...... but its actually about 60 miles and 90 minutes from Bletchley.
But well worth another Big Geek Day Out, as they've got the original Thomas the Tank Engine there. By coincidence, 19th July (i.e. the day after the Geeks hit Bletchley) is "Thomas's Big Adventure" for 2009 - the only day of the year the Fat Controller lets him pull a train the whole length of the Nene Valley line.
