Dr Mumbo

A tale of two volcanoes

Quote from the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry on the impact on business of the volcano flight disruption in today’s edition of the Australian:  

“A specific dollar figure is just not possible.”

Headline from today’s Australian Financial Review:

“Airspace closure costs $216m a day”

Still, Dr Mumbo’s favourite headline came from the Weekend Australian.

In an in-joke nod to a famous headline from The Times which will have made sense to about 12 readers, Dr Mumbo fortunately included, The Australian reported: “Haze over Channel: Continent cut off, thousands stranded.”
