Iceland's most active volcano, Grimsvotn, has started erupting, scientists say.

Hmm lets see how this pans out - I was stuck abroad last year when this kicked off - had to slum it in Dubai and then South Africa for a couple of weeks, I just hope any board members dont get affected too much by any disruption!

Fingers crossed it wont cause the same chaos as the one in April 2010, my KLM flight from BHX - MNL was delayed by 9 days, and messed up my internal flights/hotel bookings in the Phils.

It's worth checking your travel insurance too. I lost around £300 on my internal flights and late hotel cancellation fees. My travel insurance only coughed up £150 as that is the maximum they would pay out for delayed departure.
