No reports of engine starts from fence yet so delay or cancellation seems likely

And not one for the faint of heart, either. Some of the language on there is 'fruity'. At least it was when I was a member a few years ago..

Yep ! 'FB' is one of the more common examples of initialism. Not to be confused with 'Fighter Banter' or 'Flipping Bulls**t' although the latter by virtue of its content can easily be mistaken for FaceBook. :whistle:
