Help, volcano, stuck in Europe

well done mate

Oh yeah and good work digby, I hope they appreciate your efforts back at base.

(I also sold tickets on my rented bus to other stranded people to cover the cost of me and my team (cash only), just to break even not for profit)

So, perhaps you should have another go? This time for profit.

I've just found out, that one of my wife's mates have a pilot licence. Apparently his phone is constantly busy. Hope it's not him who crashed in Hampshire today.

Just watch out for the Lolcano.

Fuckin' classic!

digby: I'll call you next time my flight is cancelled ok? I was going to paris, visit my gf and make babies and now i'm stuck home, reading a bike forum.

Ride it! I said ride it!

"they were forced to dump the bicycles"

No, they were not. They should go all the way.

lolcano.

P&O this way =>

See you at dover.

Is anyone else enjoying the silence of the skies?

It is interesting that the news only seem to be talking about stranded holiday makers but what about all the food etc we ship by planes? Are we going to run out of bananas by Wednesday?

There was some guy who owned a fruit importing business on the radio on friday asaying his business was in tatters, and he had piles of fruit rotting.

Its odd that when the BA people went on strike for a day or two the papers and the tories were going mad about the cost to the economy, and everyones still pretty chilled about this.

Maybe there is no cloud and its a conspiracy, and theres a mass air war going on. Or a nuclear blast. maybe we've bombed iran and everyones keeping quiet about it.

I wish I was stuck on holiday : (

I miss my planes.

my bananas are still green anyway.

god save us all, no bananas!

The Dalai Lama:

Similarly, our planet is our house, and we must keep it in order and take care of it if we are genuinely concerned about happiness for ourselves, our children, our friends, and other sentient beings who share this great house with us. If we think of the planet as our house or as our mother-Mother Earth we automatically Feel concern For our environment. Today we understand that the future of humanity very much depends on our planet, and that the future of the planet very much depends on humanity. But this has not always been so clear to us. Until now, you see, Mother Earth has somehow tolerated sloppy house habits. But now human use, population, and technology have reached that certain stage where Mother Earth no longer accepts our presence with silence. In many ways she is now telling us, "My children are behaving badly." She is warning us that there are limits to our actions.

Slightly interesting fact, but Ireland's most profitable export is in fact, bananas.

Who'd've thunk it?

not anymore!
