[sicily scene] need we rescue our friend

Two big lava flows burst out of Stromboli's side on Tuesday, sending up vast plumes of steam as they plunged into the Mediterranean waters below.

Authorities said there was no immediate risk to people living on the island, off the coast of Sicily.

Do we need to mount a rescue operation for Welshcakes? Will the lava destroy her latest culinary delight?

  1. I'm sure she'll be OK James. Quite bizarre all this volcano talk. Whilst on the trek last week we came quite close to http://volcano.und.edu/vwdocs/volc_images/africa/ol_doinyo.html

    or mountain of God as the Maasai call it.

  2. Once again, fascinating, Jeremy. I'll be over there later.

  3. Thanks for your concern and the link, James. It's on the other side of the island so it's not affecting us down here. So you can all still come to dinner!
