Iceland has descended into chaos this week, with the Kroner spiralling out of control. Yesterday the King of Iceland pop, Bubbi, played an impromptu concert in front of the Althingi to help restore order. Things went from bad to worse as several homeless people stormed the stage and declared a New Order. The Icelandic Police turned up and began firing tear gas and plastic bullets into the crowds, breaking them up and then baton charging the disorientated protesters. Several protesters broke away from the carnage and returned fire with an ex-Russian T55, that had been looted during last weeks piracy outbreaks. The Police were forced to withdraw to the safety of the Althingi and began firing anti-tank rounds from the upper floors. A large caliber gun was manhandled to the square and fire was brought down on the Police force. The Althingi was in such a state of disrepair that it collapsed and killed most of the occupants. The surviving Police officers were dragged out of the rubble and the crowd set upon them, pulling them literally to pieces. All foreigners were being shipped out to Denmark for safety and the last I saw of Reykjavik was a burning heap of rubble, smoke spreading over the battered city as more conflicts between the Icelanders and Police escalated into all-out war.

I suppose that means you're on your way home then.
What a surprise, another country you couldn't manage to stick it out in for more than about two months.
Did you have a go on the T55?
No man, I'm still here. I'm hiding in the hills.
Iceland...the best country in the world:p
Good, that means you'll be in pole position when the looting starts! Speaking of poles, I hope you get the King of Pop's head on a pole.
Shit, none of this has got into the so-called mass media. You're probably the only foreigner still in the country, dude. It's your duty to let the world know what's really happening.
You're like that guy in that film about Vietnam... oh no, wait I'm thinking of a different film. You're like that guy in Home Alone. Macaulay Culkin.
Rotherham Council has got all our money tied up in Icelandic bank accounts.
Who will empty our bins now?
By the way, I was going to say "frozen in Icelandic accounts" just then, but thought you might think I was making a deliberate pun which I wasn't.
That would be almost as bad as confusing the country with the frozen food shopping outlet for comical effect, which I also haven't done.
