The Eyjafjallajokull eruption and resultant disruption to air travel in Europe has brought to the surface the inherent nature of the 'I want it now' classes. Formerly known (in New Zealand and Australia) as 'The Whingeing Poms' they are unfortunately universal and can be found in any country and from any background. It has been so disappointing watching the news over the last week and seeing these WP's sitting at airports and complaining that they cannot go, return or whatever as if the world owes it to them to make it right and then complaining further about the various airlines unreasonable attitude in not flying them, accommodating them or making other travel arrangements! Fuck! What a lot of useless bastards the human race has become. Where is the pioneering spirit, the sense of adventure or, simply, the mature recognition that nature is more powerful than civilisation?
