London Closed
Heh, reminds me of when I was driving back from work and saw the sign on the A406 light up with "ALL UK AIRPORTS CLOSED" and thinking WTF. I work in an importing/exporting business, and so should have heard about the airports closing! But no. And I have no radio in my car, and don't buy newspapers or watch TV - I check BBC news website every other day for the top 5 stories but that's about it. So for the rest of the drive home I'm thinking of all these wonderful scenarios of what could have happened to shut every UK airport, and whether my colleagues at work on airport runs were okay. Only to then get home, log onto the web and find it was all because of a dumb volcano. Was still rather strange to see the signs with "All UK airports shut".
