EVER CLOUD HAS A SILVER LINING…
 
The volcanic ash cloud has caused misery for many over the past couple of weeks, with people finding themselves stranded abroad, missing weddings, funerals, parties, holidays and important business meetings. Thankfully, us English with our stiff upper lips have still managed to get on with things and have a good old laugh at ourselves, despite the drama caused by Kjyafjallajokull. 
 
Here are our top three stories to come out of the ash-cloud chaos that made us Komodo’s chuckle:

 

Groom misses stag do after volcano ash cloud – Stag dos rarely go to plan, with drunk and disorderly goings on, dressing up, and go-go dancers, you can guarantee that the stags will make it a night to remember for many years to come….usually. As a result of the ash cloud, one groom, Gareth Hale, was unable to make it to his stag do. But, determined that the groom wouldn’t miss out on any of the nights’ shenanigans, best man Gavin Bell decided to take a cardboard cut-out of Gareth on the stag do, so as to be included in all of the photos.

We now have cardboard cutouts of all Komodo’s to replace our fellow team members when they are on holiday.

The human race is powerless - Everything happens for a reason, right? The Echo reported that John Manwell, a Liverpool general election candidate, said that the volcanic ash cloud was a sign from God. He then went on to say that the eruption couldn’t have happened at a more appropriate time, with Gordon Brown, David Cameron and nick Clegg due to appear on their first televised debate of the general elections – which we totally agree with. According to Mr Manwell, “Ash is a clear biblical symbol of repentance” and a reminder that “the human race is powerless compared to God.”

Celebrities to sign with the Pope for ‘Ash Aid’ - The Spoof revealed that Twilight stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were to sing with the Pope in a charity record for ‘Ash-Aid’. Commenting on the news, Pattinson said “It’s nice to have a break from being crepusularly cultish, sulkily sexy and ferally famous” whilst languishing on the mock-roccoco chaise-longue and chain smoking Woodbines.

To our dismay, we later realised that this story was in fact false…but oh what a collaboration this would have been!

Our favourite story to come out of the ash chaos by far!
