The Almighty Ash Cloud!

Ok. Here's the thing.
You know about that recent ash cloud affecting airspace and disrupted all air traffic, that comes from the unpronounceable volcano in Iceland? ( Ok, I checked, it's called "Eyjafjallajökull". Don't ask me how to pronounce, I dunno... -_-" ).
Here we are, thinking how 'fortunate' we are not to have been affected since we were not the ones stranded in some airports for days, with no proper beds, washrooms and comfort to make do with.
I'm telling you now. We ARE affected okay!
Why, you ask?
'Coz I was over at a japanese restaurant for lunch today, and we scrolled through the yummy pictures of all the sashimis and sushis (our favourite, of coz, was salmon). And then.... sigh... the horrible news came... Every dish related to salmons were not available! So disappointing.... NO SALMONS!! Not having salmons in japanese restaurants is like, practically not having a ball on a football field in a football match! And you can't play without the bloody ball! (Okay, maybe I exaggerated, you can still eat stuffs like unagi, hotate, idako, and loads more)... but hey, salmons are essential too okay!
So anyway, we had our disappointing lunch, and went to pay at the counter, where we couldn't resist asking 'So what happened to all the salmons?'.
The guy over at the counter said "Ash cloud".
We were like "What?? U think we stupid ah? To fly from Japan to Malaysia, where got impacted by ash cloud wan?"
Guy said, "From Norway! Not Japan!"
So yeah, now we know we're also victims to the ash cloud! :((
