Planes, Diggers and Trucks


It seems a bit silly but getting woken up at half six this morning not by crying children but heavy duty vehicles is not funny. Notably when they park up then do not move again for a couple of hours. Maybe they are worried about actually waking local residents again.

On a lighter note ash clouds from Grimsvotn volcano in Iceland have been causing disruption in British and European airspace again. It seems that the authourities have again cancelled flights to and from Scottish airports, which means my Mum and Dad are becoming twitchy about thier holiday to the USA in nine days. I am sure that they will fly out on schedule, but it has been great fun winding Dad up about it.
According to the Daily Telegraph though Ryan Air flew a passenger jet through the cloud and has proclaimed it perfectly save to fly. But it must be remembered where that airline is based and owned. Say no more..
