    Thanks Goat - yes I’ve been doing some ‘googling’ and I believe Titanic also had triple expansion steam engines. I should probably have mentioned the size of it since it’s hard to judge scale from a...

    I also don’t enjoy being layered up in multiple or over thick suits. Having dove in 15 ish countries I know what I like, and it’s warm water! Preferably 30° plus. It’s not just about the cold either.

    I’ve enjoyed all the Fallout series of games and despite the slating (mostly deserved) that F76 as had I’d say it’s worth trying now it’s not the £60 I paid. Even if you just explore the map, which...

    Happy Christmas! Yen or Triss? Don’t be greedy! Also, the choices in this game (even quite early on) really do influence the final outcome, you’ve been warned!

    Enjoy it.

    But it doesn’t need to painted - both skirting and silicone are white. Caulk will split and look terrible.

    [edit] Obviously if the skirting isn’t staying white then that’s a problem.
