'Tsunami' waves around two metres around the UK coast is a more considered result if La Palma blows big time. Big 'if' lots of variables but hey let's get hysterical and doom laden.

Crumple - you will without doubt die one day. Perhaps dwell on that simple fact rather than running around screaming that the sky if falling on the rest of us.

I consider my death, along with the mystery of life, every day. If my 'shrill warning Meerkat call' saves one life I've succeeded. What are you doing up on a hill anyway?

Not gunna happen, Crumple. You've cried "wolf" way too often for anyone to listen to you. Not that anyone ever did to begin with. The most you can expect for your bleats is a half pitying, half mocking smile.

As a founding member of the Luton Lava Palaver Club it is clear to me that the planet wants to breakup. From readings I have from my Crust Monitoring Probe (CMP) this Canary volcano will very soon trigger off a whole series of fractures and underwater crust disturbances which will cause 200mtr high tsunamis and this may well effect your television reception.
