A new start for Mooloo
Comments

BBC news site, 5 day ash forecasts (a bit like weather forecasts) indicate that airports in SE England MAY have to be closed from Sunday.
I wouldn't worry her yet ... Maybe tomorrow!Signature removed for peace of mind0 -
Thanks. Please lets keep an eye on this together and I'll make a decision tomorrow re texting her - lets hope she can receive texts in Italy!
Checked her airline website and ok for tomorrow so lets keep fingers crossed!I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -
Sorry, didn't mean to alarm anyone, they seemed quite confident about closing when I heard it on the radio this afternoon, although obviously it can change at any time.
Molly, I think it might cost her to receive a text abroad. If you know what network she's on you could check their T&C's online.
I personally think that if Mooloo's flight does happen to be cancelled/delayed the family should rally round and take care of DGD, after all, it's what Mooloo's been doing for all of them for the past few years“You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.”0 -
Mooloo joked about this when I last saw her...lets hope there is volcanic ash she said...jokingly! However I think it could potentially be a difficult situation for her and would hate there to be any more hassle. I agree that her family should rally round but there is only Biggest who can care for DGD over a longer period of time and she has work commitments. i know her (Mooloos) parents are off to France next week so Im not sure they could help. Probably not helpful speculating. I looked at Met office and it potentially could happen. I guess biggest will be in touch with Mooloo , but I think if it definitely looks like it going to happen I will text her and then she is aware although I dont want to ruin her holiday with the worry of it! What does everyone else think? I dont want to make a mountain (even with volcanic ash poring out of it) out of a molehill?I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.

I think it is a good idea Molly. Then they can make solid contingency plans just in case.It's what is inside your head that matters in life - not what's outside your windowEvery worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory. - Ghandi0

Any word on what is happening to Mooloos flight?0

I texted Mooloo and she seems to be having a nice time although she did say she has been badly bitten by mosquitos and resembles elephant man! Anyway there is no real news re her flight. Stansted airport is still open and might still be tomorrow morning but next update is at 7 so will text her then. Any info you glean please post it!I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.

Thanks Jackie - Molly is wonderful. Not quite herself though hence the ride yesterday. I also have Poppy who is a younger and fatter version of Molly but also beautiful. How is Coco?
Ooh this ash cloud is an awkward beastie - i wish is would just dissipate. It all seem so unpredictable.I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
