So planes have been grounded because Anne Robinson has been flossing her vagina? That will come as cold comfort to some (clearly not that close) friends of mine who have been at Bristol Airport all day intending to fly out to Barcelona on a long stag weekend.
(Edit: Happy ending, after 12 hours and still no flight, one of them found out there is a Barcelona down in Cornwall, so they've hired a mini-bus and gone there instead.)

This feature is quite distinct from inherent toxic debt, liability for which is not, as scientists had expected, limited by sovereign immunity.
Hope this note clarifies the matter.

offlineMemberExcellent news : We are all doomed according to the Daily Express.
Daily Express : Volcanic ash is deadly.
Such lazy journalism, I would have expected a story on 'What Princess Diana would have thought about the volcano'.

offlineMemberNature's poetry is sublime: Icelandic debt brings the UK to a financial standstill, while it's volcano not only drifts ash all over the place, but also delays the national funeral of a widely-disliked neo-Con nutter, snatched from his duties by a forest similar to that in which the victims he was to commemorate, were executed.
There is such a neat loop the loop in this story, I will not even attempt a limerick or bout rhymé, but rather a retake on ...what was that Icelandic epic entitled? Beowulff?
