It's not a TBB glitch as it's been happening several days a week for over a month, and only affects certain nodes even along the same route (say Edinburgh CMTS 13 but not CMTS 14)

VM seem to have some very slow routes for some reason. Edinburgh to Manchester is a ~250 mile path, and takes only 5ms. Birmingham to London is about 100 miles but taking 8ms for you. Manchester to London, which is about twice as far, only takes 6-7ms for me.
(Incidentally VM also have a very slow route to Amsterdam)
Despite having over four times as far for my data to go, it only takes 15% longer (18ms) to reach London from Edinburgh than it does for you. My TBB monitor actually has the same minimum ping as yours, despite being 4 times further away as well, which is really odd.
