Yes that is a tragedy, but thats an extreme exception; for most it certainly won't be that bad. 2 hours ago, crazyfool1 said: Ffs get a grip or the elderly or vulnerable , those with medical needs … those whose businesses and livelihoods can get ruined Yeah, I'm fine with those people being worried, not saying we can't make exceptions. I'm just laughing at all the nerds in panic mode because it's a bit wet and windy outside. Y'all are acting as if we've got a hurricane coming 🙃 Anyway, I'm not some tabloid reader so pls stop with the sensationalism 😂😂😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clear instructions should have been issued to delay deliveries until it was safe to go on the road. Customers would surely understand. These vans don’t look the most stable of vehicles either.

We had 15 vans go out today … sails on wheels would be an apt description… I’ve asked for an email of our ops manager for home shop … I just hope both the morning loads and afternoon ones all return safely to store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far this “storm” is nothing but a load of warm/cold air. The previous storms this year and earlier this week have been far more severe and damaging but they didn’t get the same level of coverage probably because it didn’t affect those precious souls in the SE.
