Significant likelihood of a volcanic eruption in the coming days. Models show a 15-km long magma intrusion, located just northwest of Grindavík. A hazard area has been defined based on the location of the dike, as shown in the map. https://t.co/9vYBBjNcX9

The really good thing about the superb performance the Warriors turned on tonight is that they did it in front of the fans who've kept turning up at Mt Smart, all year, win or lose, even in the worst weather. What a great thing to do for the faithful.

@Writagal @NationalTheatre Oh that sounds amazing! ❤️❤️❤️

@farmgeek @publicaddress I wonder if it’s a sideline push to manage future climate change concerns completely outside of govt/local govt and on to the private sector “oh the INSURER won’t cover your new build/renovation because it’s in a flood zone/slip zone/somewhere - oh well tough biscuits”

@dalainz I never liked vacuuming until I got a Dyson… that said, how’s the new home?? 😊

[Elouise Quigan @elequigan]

There’s cleaning the house,

And there’s “oh my god there is so much I haven’t cleaned since last summer and we’ve got company coming over tomorrow, I must do the windows, the sideboards, the cupboards…” cleaning the house.
