A local fair for local people

I haven't been thinking much about the London Book Fair, even though it's next week, because my role tends to be less to do with moving and/or shaking and more in the line of holding people's coats. But it has been drawn to my attention that with no flights entering British airspace recently there might be a marked shortage of foreign visitors to the fair. Presumably it will be a strangely quiet, strange provincial LBF. I think we'll still be able to do all the things we planned to, but what about you? Is this a disaster?

It isn't a disaster for me as I live a couple of hours train travel away so I'll still be able to get to the LBF as planned. There are a lot of twitter updates using the #LBF10 hashtag which show what a disaster the ash cloud is for a lot of people though.

I have been wondering about that too - given that this year LIBF has a South African market focus, does that mean that all the publishers and authors from there are stuck down South?!
