New Island

Apparently there was some volcanic action in the Indian Ocean earlier this morning and we now have a 'new' island - already named San Serife!!! The American Geological Survey have put out an alert for Sunami warnings to the eastern seaboards of the African continent, southern Indian states, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Burma and Malaysia as well as the Western Seaboard of Australia.

You're obviously not old enough to remember the Grauniad prank regarding the Island of San Serife back in the 1970s.
