The Anonymous Widower

A Real Heroic Story

Britain are not noted to be great at ice hockey, but they at least qualified for the World Championships in Slovakia.

However, they then found that they couldn’t get there because of the Icelandic volcano.  But here in the UK, we’re don’t let a little dust get in our plans, so they took a coach all the way. This is from the BBC.

Great Britain won their opening game in Group B of Division One at ice hockey’s World Championships, beating Croatia.

GB made a 26-hour bus journey to hosts Slovenia after the Icelandic volcanic eruption cancelled their flight, arriving two hours before face-off.

Well done to the team and they showed that we must just get on with it. 

Rumour has it, that the team have decided to sleep in the bus!
