Peace and quiet

I know I shouldn't be happy considering the economic damage to the country and the thousands of Britons stranded abroad, but I've enjoyed the most peaceful, quiet and relaxing weekend completely devoid of the constant drone of jet aeroplanes flying overhead as they approach or depart Heathrow.

It's been fantastic to be able to sit in the garden and hear the birdsong for a change.

I reckon we should throw the Labour party down the volcano to appease the volcano god. Mind you, it'd probably spit them out with disgust.

The economic fall out from the volcano is going to be another blow to the the fragile British economy especially if the grounding of the aircraft continues into weeks rather than days.
