I was going to say 'Do keep up there at the back' as this is now old news, but allowing for timezones I suppose it's new news for you.

I did post this much earlier than it appeared, but my chair was accidentally sitting on the PC cable, so it got blocked for a bit.

Re: UK Airspace closed!
My mum and dad were due back in NI from Australia today. They arrived in Heathrow 12 hours ago. They are in their 70's and it looks like they might have to sleep on the airport floor tonight if they can't get booked into a hotel:(

The irony is, the skies around heathrow have been empty since lunchtime yesterday and will continue to be until tomorrow (Saturday) BUT the weather is beautiful. There isn't a cloud (ash or otherwise) in the sky. |

There isn't a cloud (ash or otherwise) in the sky. Thankfully my mum and dad managed to get booked into a hotel near heathrow but they won't be going anywhere until at least tomorrow morning. Another slight irony is my OH is in London working for a band who just happen to be called ASH:eek: |

Assuming we are talking about the same band. |
