a couple of things ...

Getting a bit worried again by the volcano in Iceland whose name I cannot pronounce !!!  I can spell it though - Eyjafjallajokull.  Airports in Northern Ireland and parts of Scotland were closed yesterday and this morning because of a fresh cloud of volcanic ash from that volcano.  I hope that isn't extended south to Heathrow over the next few days.

Also in the news is this item about an Indian man who claims to have spent the last 70 years without food and water.  But why would he want to do that when almost everything I eat is nutritious, provides me with the energy I need ... and tastes good.
