I saw some of the pictures in the local news, it looks pretty bad. Or it could be the news finding the really bad places to show, which is what they tend to do.
sorry for the divert, but lived under etna for a while and always had to sweep the veranda of ash. it made for the best sunrises over the sea looking east. sorry for the off topic
It's ok Robert, we don't have to worry about some enigmatic force yelling at us Sounds like you have some experience with these things. The number of uk people visiting the forum has been lower than normal too.
Don't worry, we're not buried under a mountain of ash! It's just that we've hit the first pocket of good weather this year, so everyone's out riding. There's also been a two week school holiday, so some folks have taken the opportunity to go on vacation (and get stranded abroad because there are no flights back to the UK...) The most visible effect of the volcano thing here is that it's given us some spectacular sunsets.
I never would have guessed your location from your screen name. It sounds like things are not quite as bad as the news reports make out, but it is still affecting transportation in a major way.
Haven´t seen any ash in Sweden. Just cancelled airtraffic for some days, but i don´t jump that high anyway! Johnny
