Balpin Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-15995845 If this goes off, it will be big time, apparantly. it is a massive volcano, and always follows that one with the unpronouncable name, that caused all the disruption. It has caused massive crop and pastoral failures in past centuries. This is all we need, on top of the failure of capitalism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadingNorth Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 The amount of ash Katla is likely to throw out - if it does indeed erupt - would make Eyjafjannajokull look like a small family barbecue. I hope nobody was planning to fly anywhere for the next twelve months... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxman Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Bugger. Does this mean I have to postpone booking foreign holidays next Summer? Maybe I'll just book at week at Holiday Inn in Rotherham, I'm sure my girlfriend won't mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f0rd Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 if Katla goes off, there could also be flank failure, and if that reaches the sea it creates the possibility of a tsunami down the Irish channel. I wonder how much planning went into all the Nuclear Reactors down that coast for a tsunami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balpin Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 I shall book an early holiday, and with any luck be stuck in the Canaries all Summer. I shall be a beach bum. What a shame. Come on Katla!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If teneriffe goes off, isnt that meant to be even worse? The entire side of the island falls into the sea, cusing wide spread devastation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on Katla!! Wouldn't it be incredibly unlucky if you managed to get to the Canaries and the volcano they are monitoring erupted and wiped the Canaries out?

HeadingNorth Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Good old cut and paste If it was cut-and-paste it would have included the punctuation marks. I'm not likely to forget the name of that volcano; it cancelled our holiday in Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only in the south, so it doesn't really count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
