Just been and had a sniff.
No smell of sulphur detected here in Norfolk or any volcanic dust.
Bright,
sunny, clouds with about a third blue sky.


You know that it's excellent fertiliser?


I didn't. Presumably if it is dark the ground will warm up and be of benefit
to plants.


It won't be that heavy, from the sound of it, except perhaps up
in Shetland.

The reason is that it contains lots of useful trace elements.
