Kitchen backdrop seals cracking

Hi I had this kitchen installed December 2023 and the backdrop seals are coming away in two places, above and below.

The tiles were installed afterwards by another tradesman and the quartz is 30mm

As I understand it the bottom where it meets the worktop is silicone and where it meets the tile is just tile grout?

This seems like a simple job but I want to do it properly and would like to know how and what to use to patch. Caulk, grout silicone a mix? Or something else?

Thanks in advance

Flue Extensions for Dome Gen 2, Uk

I’m using the Dome Gen 2 XL underneath a lean to pergola in my garden.

I didn’t anticipate how close the flue would be to my polycarbonate sheet roof. It’s not covered in black soot and I need a solution fast.

I live in South of London in UK. Does anybody know the best place to buy parts for a solution?

I either need to extend the flue go through the roof OR use some sort of bend and go around it.

I’ve attached some examples one from the Gozney studio and another from a guy called Frank on Facebook.

DomeXL Gen 2

How are you guys cleaning the very front of your dome gen 2 stone? I had a bad spillage yesterday so I left the oven on full for 30-40 minutes after I was done cooking to pyrolytic clean itself.

The oven got to 550°c on stone and air temp and annihilated most of the grime except the very front of the stone which protrudes past the front door slightly. I left it at this temperature for some time but it’s still black.

I took a reading of the stone temp in this front section and it was around 450°c so it wasn’t exactly cool…

I’m really trying to not damage anything but also hate that my week old oven looks like this.

Dad & Daughter Hair Advice

Hi I’m a dad of one daughter (soon to be two..!) current one is 2 years old.

I have very curly thick short hair and my partner has dead straight relatively thin hair and so does her mother (very important fact).

My daughter as you would expect has something in the middle, definitely moderately curly hair.

Something I did not expect as a new dad was my partner and her mother completely not understanding how curly hair works and the maintenance, products and care it needs. They often do her hair in very unflattering styles or put the wrong or too much product in or the opposite and leave it really dry and bushy.

As somebody with curly hair I’ve tried to take over her routine, by the correct products for her and do her hair myself whenever possible. This often gets met with criticism and when I have bought it up they disregard it thinking they must know best as they’re all female. But this really is not the case.

When we go out I often feel slightly embarrassed when other parents see her hair as to me it screams that as parents we’re unable to manage her hair properly.

Has anybody else been it a similar or related boat or able to share some advice?

Simple one, I need a way to keep on top of earnings calls, statements and noteworthy announcements.

What are we all using to do this?

Yes I can subscribe to something individual, yes I can read the news or read T212 feeds, but any strategy, app, website, calendar I can subscribe to or similar which amalgamates this?
