Well, typically, the name would refer to the dragon. jh Send a noteboard - 18/04/2010 08:30:03 PM
Of course, given that they now they are afraid that Eyjafjallajökull is going to wake up Katla, things are likely to grow very hairy on Iceland. Let's hope the ashes fall down Somewhere Else™ if that happens.

My first reaction when reading this was "... the volcano is going to wake the dragon from The Brothers Lionheart?"


On iceland, it would refer to one of the big bad volcanoes. Not a small one like Eyjafjallajökull...

There are worse places to be stuck than Rome Camilla - 18/04/2010 10:40:29 AM 668 Views
Tim said you were stuck in Rome. I wasn't sure if you were there or Norway. Alas. Rebekah - 18/04/2010 10:39:55 AM 704 Views

Nope. Not in Europe anyway. I suspect Lesotho might be too far to go to get it. Rebekah - 18/04/2010 10:43:31 AM 662 Views
You are really not being very sensible here. jh - 18/04/2010 10:48:34 AM 681 Views
Oh, I am being sensible. The wish to get home is really just a sham. Camilla - 18/04/2010 10:53:46 AM 717 Views
Can you even get Eurostar tickets anymore? Legolas - 18/04/2010 12:53:52 PM 666 Views
Yes. There are tickets on all trains on Tuesday. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:11:49 PM 650 Views

Not so fast. The dirty French have told him he's not allowed to rescue people. Tim - 18/04/2010 03:43:52 PM 661 Views

SNCF says about 1/3 of train drivers are striking, but there are extra international services. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 04:24:57 PM 284 Views
I had never heard of such a thing. What a fun idea!! Tashmere - 18/04/2010 03:54:15 PM 622 Views
It seems there may be hope for people in Calais after all! (Daily Mash link) Tim - 19/04/2010 09:32:42 AM 709 Views

If you can get to Amsterdam, there are ferries to Newcastle. Spriteling - 18/04/2010 11:37:41 AM 780 Views
And if you get to Newcastle, I'll pick you up if I can get the car from my sister in St Andrews. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 11:40:08 AM 262 Views
That is beginning to sound tempting. *NM* Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:11:04 PM 288 Views
Just saw your blog update about the bus to Germany. Are you definitely doing that? *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 04:16:23 PM 278 Views
Nothing is difinitive yet, but it looks like that is our best option. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:19:00 PM 607 Views
Oooh. I didn't know that. That sounds like it might be more sensible than Eurostar. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:10:33 PM 643 Views
Here is the website for the ferry: Spriteling - 18/04/2010 04:27:30 PM 1068 Views
There is no room, sadly. It would have been a good idea. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:35:41 PM 646 Views
There appear to be luxury cabins for £242. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 07:05:41 PM 270 Views

Do you have travel insurance? Or an HSBC Advance Account? Tim - 18/04/2010 04:38:54 PM 1780 Views
Re: Do you have travel insurance? Or an HSBC Advance Account? Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:41:44 PM 642 Views
It's nothing to do with the card you pay with. Travel insurance is a freebie with the Advance A/c. Tim - 18/04/2010 04:50:08 PM 2330 Views
oooh Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:52:15 PM 627 Views

There's a volcano named Katla? That's awesome. Legolas - 18/04/2010 08:24:59 PM 668 Views

It's under a huge glacier. We really don't want it to erupt. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 10:05:52 PM 275 Views
