Just wondering how the volcano in Iceland is effecting everyone up north?
The only difference that we have noticed is, that there are less planes in and out of Toulouse, mostly because no-one else is moving!
I've been watching the news and it must be awful if anyone is trying to get anywhere urgently. We are meant to be having family visiting, but who knows, they were meant to leave today, but are waiting until tomorrow to discover what is happening.
Anyway, good luck to anyone who needs to travel anywhere by plane. On the French news, there are even people stranded in the Reunion Islands, because their plane was coming from Paris (which is closed) and back via Touloluse (which remains open!).
Just goes to prove how integrated all these planes are. Its apparently the first time that they have totally closed down flights, this didn't even happen on 9/11 in Europe.
We've family near Heathrow, London and they have said that it is really quite eerie, with no planes flying at all and that they can actually hear the birdsong!
Oh yes, and SNCF (railways) in France are on strike all week-end! Time to sit back, enjoy the sun, the garden and have a glass of wine....

Who is quite glad that she isn't planning on going anywhere too far this week-end!
