Good move Kevin. Patience is a virtue. Besides, I'd miss you on here. No delivery is worth risking your life.

Or anyone else's. There are people on the road today who have to be there. I'm not one of them. If it wasn't for iPF I would be bored out of my head, so thank you guys, on behalf of the good people whose lives are a bit safer today because I'm not out there.

U.S. Coast Guard Vice Admiral Robert Parker has just confirmed HMS Bounty is sunk.

Sadly it appears two members of its crew may be missing. May the sea be merciful.

Have been watching the news.....they are saying the boat split and the captain is still missing.

1 fatality from a tree falling on a man......

a crane is dangling from a building in New York which they fear will fall.

There is record flooding and the Fire department in NY has been evacuated by boat.

Over 3 million without power already and they say 60,000,000 people will be affected by this!

Just shocking news.....stay safe everyone.....my prayers are with you!
