I am getting fed up of people whining about not going on holiday, I get their frustration and I sympathise, but there's only so much of it I want to hear on the news. I do have great sympathy though for those stuck abroad who can't get back, the time, cost and loss of wages could be very significant. My brother finally made it back from Holland at midday, think it took him nearly 24 hours by ferry and train and now he's got to drive for 4 hours, but he's just glad he could get back. Got another friend who has been trying to get back from Majorca with half a dozen relatives including young kids, they've just been told no chance until Friday!
Thought the sky here this morning looked a little redder, but I've washed the car so I'm hoping for no ash settling!
