Erm, yeah. That didn’t take long. After the earlier post I started looking into flight prices and have booked myself a 1-way ticket on Iceland Airways to Reykjavic. I fly out on January 4th for a few days and will likely head to Copenhagen after that for a the weekend, before getting an expense-paid flight to Geneva and on to Chamonix to work again.
As you do.

In the wake of Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling classing Icelanders as terrorists in a bid to grab invested British cash back from Icelandic banks, I’d like to say the following. I have posted it as a comment on this BBC story, but given that I somewhat insult both the UK and US governments I don’t know if they’ll use it…
For the sake of full disclosure, I have money invested in Kaupthing – one of the banks that collapsed in Iceland recently. It was bought out by ING who I’d moved from in the first place. Gah.
Anyway:
Icelanders – please don’t hate us for the actions of a small minority of people. That would be like hating everyone in the US simply because their country is run by a bunch of inept, power-hungry goons.
I’ve yet to visit Iceland (if you moved a little closer so the air fares were lower I’d be there like a shot) but I’d like to think that as a people you’re as understanding as we are. Trust me, we don’t like the muppets in charge of our country any more than you do. If anything, this should bring us closer.
