Oh! no - not again!

Post by TomUK »

Another Icelandic volcano is causing alarm. The Bandarbunga volcano is under orange alert with airlines. Earthquakes in the region have caused instability. Let's hope it doesn't cause the havoc that the last unpronouncably named one caused.

So it went up from an orange alert to red alert, now it's reduced back to orange again. There was a sizeable 5.7 earthquake earlier today, but further north. 'Experts' say eruption unlikely. The term 'experts' is a bit worrying. We fly out on Sunday. After that it can do what it friggin' likes.
