Volcanic phrases

When I worked on phrasebooks I don't think we even included the word volcano in the dictionary section of our phrasebooks.

And whilst emergencies might have included the rather wordy and pretty useless:
'Please stop the bus my child is going to be sick'

They certainly didn't include:
'The volcanic ash has grounded my flight'.

Phrasebook publishers amongst you. It's time to think about a European VolcApp phrasebook for the next eruption.

I know people must find them useful but phrase books never said anything I wanted to say!
