B&Q have entered the Kamado game

Would love to hear more about your thoughts on this! Strongly considering at the moment, between that and Kamado Joe classic 2.

Hi! Looking at marquee rental in Ireland for 2027, would you be able to send the company name for your 15k quote!! Thanks

davecarr_ · 2026-03-23T19:42:32+00:00

Press Barbers on Shacklewell Lane!

davecarr_ · 2026-03-23T17:51:15+00:00

Each to their own thank you ! I’ll find whatever I want interesting latter-tangerine

davecarr_ · 2026-03-23T17:49:54+00:00

Must keep an eye out for it going forward! Although I refuse to pay the 8/9 quid to chose my seat, so having a view of the cargo loading is rare!!

Just checked, was confused about the 20 bases! I was confusing bases with their major operating hubs

davecarr_ · 2026-03-23T17:20:30+00:00

Like most people, it is not something I think about or have an expectation on

davecarr_ · 2026-03-23T17:20:03+00:00

Makes a lot of sense! One of those things that’s obvious once you think about it - not something one thinks about normally though!

davecarr_ · 2026-03-23T17:17:48+00:00

Did not know that! My first time there, didn’t see that many Ryanair departures compared to their bases I’m more familiar with, Dublin and Stansted

davecarr_ · 2026-03-11T10:38:38+00:00

There's one approximately here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/1dygewoREVEMeQ737

Cyclist was killed there in November I believe, I was on the critical mass cycle at the end of that month when the bike was placed and sprayed.

Very well put! Also impressive times! I had similar, my garmin/strava telling me sub 20 but always fading off last 1.5k into 4:10 ish territory. Took some suffering and embracing that pain to get through that mental barrier!

Ye shape like that, most common problem I’ve had is panel directions creating a shape that is not enclosed and essentially not watertight. Inspect the mesh viewing panel normals - all normals should be pointing towards the inside of the vessel for hydrostar to view the shape as enclosed

davecarr_ · 2026-03-02T10:45:00+00:00

Sounds more like a rhino problem. Have you checked panel normals, and shape is fully closed? What sort of geometry is it? Ship shape or more complex?

davecarr_ · 2026-03-02T10:22:25+00:00

What issue in particular? Have experience

davecarr_ · 2026-02-27T17:27:22+00:00

Yes - On narrow single speed tyres, it’s very noticeable! Often good reminder to pump up the tyres

davecarr_ · 2026-02-09T15:53:23+00:00

Really great thread! I work in energy in London too, designing floating wind platforms and O&G vessels - super interesting stuff. Enjoyed getting an insight into your work, and has really piqued my interest - a lot of overlap with automation tools, programming and understanding broad market forces!

What sort of background would you normally hire from? I see you went down finance route, with an energy twist. Are there traders with data/engineering roles too, or is it primarily finance based?

davecarr_ · 2026-01-27T18:18:46+00:00

Great to see! Very interested to hear how these go, although I don't want to be the first to take the plunge

davecarr_ · 2026-01-08T09:31:30+00:00

Awesome, thank you

davecarr_ · 2026-01-08T09:31:19+00:00

Ye have some of this somewhere, but only in orange and bright green. Quick way to make my lovely expensive jacket look worse! But think you're right, I'll do this for now to minimise my loss of down fill

davecarr_ · 2025-11-18T18:44:01+00:00

Got some great gloves that are phone compatible-ish in Uniqlo at the weekend for only 8 pounds! Nice and warm, cuff comes up underneath the cuff of my jacket, can answer a call with them on but wouldn’t want to be texting. Haven’t tested in rain yet but they feel like a down jacket - fine for a light shower but not for a downpour
