Betty LaRue Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Just reading about the volcano eruption in New Zealand. A tragedy. Isn’t that where Spacecadet is presently? I hope he is safe. Betty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betty LaRue Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 That’s good. Let’s hope he didn’t see the pre-belches and decide to head that way. In my life, sometimes I’ve run toward danger. To help. Instinct, rather than engaging caution. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Crean Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I was stood on there almost exactly 5 years ago...16/12/2014 Was a bit scary at the time knowing that it was active... Seems like the authorities should have stopped visitors a month ago when the volcanologists were warning of increased activity. Very sad 😢 Phil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty LaRue Posted December 14, 2019 Author Share Posted December 14, 2019 I rather expect there will be a lot of criticism over this. Decisions were made that morning that put lives at risk. I’m surprised there hasn’t been a bigger hubbub already, unless there is and I’m not hearing about it in my part of the world. It seems that the victims were scalded by hot water, best I can tell.

Ed Rooney Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I doubt that Mark (Spacecadet) is anywhere near that volcanic island but he certainly has been out of touch for a relatively long time now. ??? I've walked the edge of live volcanos in Costa Rica, Hawaii, and Bali. I don't think they have any here in Liverpool. But they do have the full English breakfast.

My latest 6 are "awaiting QC" Maybe the party's over, or they're still hoiking out a few to check. Well, they'll be awaiting till 2020 because we're off to NZ. Bye all.

I was born in a tropical climate (the West Indies) but was brought up mainly in Quebec, in and around Montreal. When I was a kid, I didn't mind the frigid winters at all. Now, after decades in balmy Vancouver, I'm a wimp, and only visit Montreal in September or October when the weather is usually ideal. Mexico at this time of year sounds like the wise way to go. ¡Buen viaje! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
