3) Making a candle (it is unfortunately stuck in the mould still, but I felt accomplished!)

Try putting it in the fridge, it might loosen it.

Mine for today -

• having the windows open for an hour this morning before the rain started
• taking a home cooked meal to my godmother
• kicking up the leaves on the pavement as I walked home
• curling up in the chair this afternoon with a cup of tea and a book
• blocking a couple of draughts through my living room window with bubble wrap (still waiting for secondary units to be installed! :rolleyes:)
