Volcanic Ash again
Well it looks like Mrs Liam might have an extended break in the UK (Burton on Trent) as the Volcanic Ash has returned,she is due to fly home tomorrow evening but currently there will be no flights to Ireland until at least 1 PM tomorrow. Probably be extended as that was the pattern a few weeks ago. Last time the ash was about we missed a weekend trip and competition in Dusseldorf, this time her mother has been taken into hospital and we haven't told her yet until we know what the problem is. Hopefully she will get home tomorrow and thankfully she is staying with friends so no large hotel bills,I hope.

Now that's really cheered me up
Mind you best human interest story from this volcano business..................... Apparently there's a 40 odd year old Icelandic volcanologist who has made the study of this previously fairly dormant example his obsessive life's work. Unfortunately for him when it erupted he was .............. out of the country with no flights back |
