Muscle power

Lots of making today, these are own label candles for Echo Beach but made some for PA too while the melter was on.

This afternoon was end of month admin and starting the lengthy process of checking the costings for all of my inventory. The cost of my materials has been going through the roof so some of my products will need to go up in price unfortunately :(
I also spent over 4 figures on materials today - eek! 

Then the guy arrived to connect us to fibre optic. Most of the 2 hours was spent drilling through one of our very deep stone walls (his language was quite colourful at times :) but, result. Finally, we're on the grid like most normal people. Being the very end of the Penicuik line, 5 miles away, it's been a hideous service (1 megabit/second download speed when we first moved out here). Should finally be able to stream things without them constantly cutting out and (fingers crossed) uploading shouldn't now need a coffee/lunch break to accomplish.
