    Hmmm... they sever any means of flying fresh produce into the UK and scatter volcanic ash (good fertiliser) across our countryside. I think this is all a conspiracy from the UK agricultural sector....

    Re: Iceland is at it again!

    Living in London I'm amazed at how clear the skies have been the last few days. Probably just the prevailing weather conditions, but you have to imagine that the total lack of air traffic has to contribute something to the lack of haze on these warmer days.

    Last time I noticed anything like that was when I was in L.A. just after 9/11. No planes = clear blue skies. I thought I read something a while back which said one contrail could spread across half the visible sky in under an hour....

    Ban all planes!

    Re: Iceland is at it again!

    I'm going on a gliding course next week, good job it doesn't affect us

    Spoke to a lady at the gliding club yesterday who worked in travel insurance. We were joking about how long it would take for most of the human race to die off after an apocalypse due to flapping around helplessly. Most of the people stuck abroad aren't actually doing much to help their situation apparently, they're all hoping that the insurance will cover it - sadly most insurance packages don't include volcano cover - when it's the airlines that should be refunding passengers.

    Re: Iceland is at it again!

    I have a couple of friends who are in various European countries at the moment who can't get home. I feel bad for them since they will be missing out on so much study time right before the exams, but they are in a nice hot country so I doubt it's that bad.
    My parents are meant to go away in 2 weeks to Spain, I might have to cancel all those parties .

    Ouch. Good luck with that .

    I honestly would never have thought that a volcano in Iceland could cause this much disruption for Europe.

    Re: Iceland is at it again!

    I see good ol' Dan Snow son of Peter is off to Calais for a D-Day style pick up of stranded Brits. The intrepid explorer announced his intentions on the news this morning. He did admit that others had already reached Calais with the same plans.....they clearly hadn't been delayed with the hulabaloo of announcing their plans to an adoring public. That Dan, what will he think of next...a similar rescue in Australia or Bora-Bora.
