text: I don't know why Bethesda insists on some personal plot point as though anyone cares. The fantasy of the post-apocalypse is not to go finding your family members. The fantasy is to get away from your previous life. To start over. Cast off shackles. Making us go looking for family members is antithetical to the post-apocalypse. We should just be wanderers in this new world. That doesn't mean you can't have a strong plot, and it doesn't mean you can't form bonds with characters. But it does mean you shouldn't drag those elements with you from the old world. The entire point of the genre is to start afresh.
  They should just take a page from the modders' playbook and give you a "choose your own start" deal. Do you want to be a raider? A mayor? A BoS guy? And just go from there.
  eh, I knew the journey would be HUNDREDS of hours, so I wasn't in a hurry to find the kid. It will happen, and I have my theories on who he is, but yet the timeline doesn't seem to match up on everything......oh well. I will have a hell of a fun time in my explorations to find said family member.....

  England Under 21's were in town tonight and thanks to our links with the FA, Blyth Bombers were in the stands to cheer them on. With a 6pm kick off, the kids were all desperate to escape school on the 'B' of the bell and for their dad's to hack it through the rush hour traffic into Sheffield city centre. For those of you who support one of the Steel city's clubs and go to evening matches, traffic is a well known enemy of the pre-match pie and Bovril. It was busier than expect
  For those of you who were snuggled up, warm at home with the fire on, there were some of us hoping the snow would disappear and the kids could burn some energy - You should never keep a 7 year old from their football match! Many parents struggle to get the kids out of the house and away from the Ipads, however, it could be worse! Spare a thought for those parents, grand parents, carers, friends and relations who are on the way to junior football matches at 8.30 on Saturday an
  
  I am a newbie poster but a long time lurker on this forum (I’m not sure if lurker is the right word, but I’ve been reading all your posts for a long time). I have just taken the plunge and purchased a beater 24 foot trailerable trimaran. It needs lots of work but it has good solid fiberglass amas and main hull. I plan to re-design the folding mechanism, and possibly the cabin if I get real enthusiastic. I’m sure that I will have lots and lots of questions for ya’ll, but for starters, I’m trying to find out something about the boat I bought. It is a “Texas Trimaran” or “Tex-Tri” I believe it is late sixties or early seventies vintage. A Google search comes up with very little on these. Has anyone ever heard of these? Any comments on the basic hull design? Is it worth the energy to bring this thing back to life? Also, any ideas on home built folding mechanisms? I’d like to come up with something relatively simple that can be folded/unfolded on the water. The Corsair/Farrier design is nice, but may be too difficult to make on my own (I am trying to do this on the cheap).
  How about some photos of the boat as she sits right now... inside and out from several angles? Really can't make any comments, except in a very general sense, without knowing what the issues might be.
  I've inserted a Snapfish link to a photo album of the boat. I hope the link works ok. It’s a 24’ Texas Trimaran. These were built in or near Corpus Cristi Texas in the late 60’s and early 70’s. This particular boat hasn’t seen the water for ten years and has rotted a back yard since then. The hulls and amas are solid fiberglass. The deck and cabin are plywood/fiberglass. The folding system seems to utilize wood 4x4 technology , and I am amazed by the flimsy hinge and locking mechanism. I can’t believe that this system held up in any kind of weather. All of the fiberglass seems pretty solid but the wood deck on the amas, and some of the wood in and around the hinges is rotted. I want to redesign the folding mechanism so that the amas can be folded/unfolded while on the water. Any comments would be very much appreciated.
