Ay caramba, Mexican volcano erruption

Interesting thing in the news today, about a volcano 40 miles from Mexico City.

Looks like it could be a significant natural disaster in the making

Makes me happy that we have no real volcanic activity in the UK

No, but you have Slough.

Me, I'd take the volcano every time.

I worked in Mexico City back in 2005 and that volcano was constantly spouting steam - It has apparently been "about to erupt" for the best part of 50 years. It really is a very impressive sight though. With regard disaster, Mexico City is built almost enirely upon a lake basin and the subsoil/base is extremely fragile
