Thread Name: BS: Tsunami
Subject: RE: BS: Tsunami
When the huge tsunami hit the Indian Ocean in 2004, people in Portobello (beachside suburb of Edinburgh) did fundraising with the slogan "What if it happened to Porty?" - with none of it more than a few feet above sea level, the result would have been like a lot of those places in Sri Lanka or Indonesia.

With this one, my first thought was Lochgilphead - same geography as Palu, at the head of a firth, and similarly vulnerable if anything went splat in the Firth of Clyde.
