Eyjafjallajökull
So, on Saturday I have Ryanair tickets that were supposed to take me to Edinburgh to see a certain bearded Welshman in a certain adaptation of a Victor Hugo novel. I also have a mini-coach trip booked to Skye while I'm there, and generally a week of entertainment all planned. (Oh, and picking up my Maki Ichiro Sayonara Book of Doom). Right now Monday flights are decidedly cancelled - and everything else is up in the air because the bloody volcano is still spewing out dust. I am very, very annoyed.
(On the other hand, according to his Twitter, said bearded Welshman is currently stuck in Egypt... lose/lose?)

Hope everything sorts itself out soon, and you get your week's break!

I am still much in awe how a volcano eruption can paralyse Europe air traffic and cripple that of other continents to boot. On the other hand, the photos from Iceland are amazing... and I really have to learn how to spell the volcano's name.

(It's funny, when you stop to think about it, how we so blithely assume we're the ones running the show on this planet - until Mother Nature gives us a reminder we can't ignore about who's really in charge of things.)
Sorry to hear the eruptions have derailed your vacation. Could you do some last-minute planning for a week of fun not involving air travel? It might make you feel a bit better. You definitely deserve to have a fun vacation!
