The team is awaiting news on when we will be able flying out to District 7870 following the volcanic ash from Iceland which has brought England to a standstill.
All flights from the UK are currently grounded until at least 1am Sunday morning; BBC news are reporting this morning things look like they could get worse over the weekend due to the wind!
Ruth is currently at Heathrow Airport awaiting news and trying to arrange alternative flights for us all. Due to the backlog of passengers our departure date is unknown and there is the possibility we maybe traveling our separately.
We want to send our best wishes to District 7870 that were all prepared for our arrival. They are saying that an occurrence happens like this once every 200 years and that England has not seen so much disruption in the country since World War II.
We will keep you all updated!

I'm going across the Atlantic as a GSE member in 11 days... please keep us posted on how these problems were handled for you! E.g., do you have to cover the expenses related to rerouting, lodging etc yourselves, or will Rotary pay for it?
