    TALES OF THE UNEXPECTED

    Recent Volcanic disruptions were certainly unexpected and not even Roald Dahl could have written a more twisted story. I wonder did you hear the infamous theme tune if you were one of the unlucky stranded passengers. We don't want to do our airline friends out of business but wouldn't you rather be sure of reaching your destination when you want, without potential disruptions caused by an event of God or any other force of nature? It's not a ground breaking solution - stay in the UK and better still hop in a car, train or bus and head to the Athens of The North this Summer. Your customary welcome awaits you.
