Silent Spring - but in a good way (mobile podcast #013B)
Continuing my exploration of the volcano ash travel crisis, I reflect on the silent skies above the UK this springtime. Podcasting guru Neville Hobson also adds his voicemail, reflecting on a silent London.
There’s also a round up of travelling friends who’ve been posting about being caught up in the air travel chaos on Facebook, including a voicemail report from Ingrid Beazley of Dulwich OnView who is stuck in the US after a museums/ heritage sector conference.

I’d love to hear about your experiences of the air travel ban - have you been enjoying the quiet in the skies above your area? Or have been caught up in the chaos, trying to get to your destination? You can send me an email or voicemail via my Contact Page

I wasn’t caught by the air travel ban but two of my dearest friends were/are — one now stuck in Singapore, the other in Tokyo, both trying to get back to the UK. But this chaos is also an opportunity for inspiration and strength. :)

How true, Kenny - “But this chaos is also an opportunity for inspiration and strength.”
