nah its my constitutional right to make curry to rid our country of tyranny :)

edit: is it just me or is there a lot of this sorta thing happening tho, etna erupting , several earthquakes all over the place, makes for lots of tectonic distrubances. massive storms in the uk as well. coincidence or something more sinister???

etna is always erupting, and there always seems to be earthquakes along the areas where plates are moving

the weather has indeed been curious for the last 30 years
this may be due to our industrial practices or perhaps a surfeit of curries

i guess im just hoping for the end of the world so i dont have to go to work tomorrow.
were possibly just approaching the peak of some natural cycle which results in weirder weather etc.
