Probably inland, somewhat elevated and not too dry (for fires) or too flat (for tornado formation).

Sorry that I don't know the answer, but I imagine some people must have mapped this already.

Where I live is 30 km from one of the world's most active volcanoes, 20 km from a tsunami-prone coast, in a region regularly hit by landslides, floods and storms.

The distances from the volcano and the tsunami risk mean we are pretty safe. The volcano means we are on a gentle north to south slope which means our neighbourhood doesn't flood. There are no hills or steep slopes nearby so there are no landslides. And storms tend to dash themselves on the land to the south.

Sometimes being smack bang in the middle of all these theoretical risks can end up being a risk-free place to be.

Didn’t we already establish that you’re too fat to move anywhere?

If it makes you feel any better I have a torn tendon in my foot that’s stopping me moving anywhere.

Until the next earthquake?

Was in the Philippines early last year when a volcano erupted not fear from Manila, could smell something in the air.

I completely forgot about the earthquakes.

Last one here that caused damage to my house was in 2006.

I think that's the last one there's ever going to be. So it's OK.

Yes. I also forgot things like dengue fever and typhoid.

What was your username a “few years ago” when you claim we were “good friends”?

Merseyside is safe. Why do the insurance companies get the premiums so wrong?
