    [​IMG] Got something odd today - a Cold Weather Payment from the DWP, so even though I'm not getting DLA or IS anymore I'm still getting payment because of the cold?

    I really don't get the system sometimes.

    Does mean I can pay ebay fees now though. I've started selling Tarot readings on ebay, the money will go towards the electricity at home and also towards setting up a few other bits around home. If I get enough from it I've go ahead to buy the resources I need to make and sell candles and other craft bits to sell on or even make gift packs. He said no to making soaps though because he's convinced I'll make it explode :lol:

    [​IMG] When making the lye water it can reach 200°C in less than 30 seconds. It can cause burns chemically as well as the temperature and that's enough to put Kev off letting me play with it :lol:

    It's not like I'd be running round with it naked in an unstable container! Sheesh!

    The soapmaking books I have all recommend getting plumbers' lye due to the hazards involved with making your own.

    [​IMG] Other half is a plumber and has no clue what you're talking about :p

    It's hardly hazardous mixing your own if you're sensible about it and follow directions properly. Unfortunately there are too many idiots about that don't bother reading any safety guidlines or advice.

    Lye in crystalline form is used as a drain de-clogger, at least here in the US. That's why it's called plimbers' lye, since it's one of the few pure lye products you can buy off the shelf.

    In a great mood! GSP beat up Koscheck for 25 straight minutes and maybe fractured the guy's orbital socket. THAT'S entertainment -- anyone else watch it?

    A fifth elder scroll ? Interesting, I didn't like Oblivion much, but Morrowind was fun. I hope it'll be more like the third.

    What's this ? Freezing rain ? Ah come on... That is not cool
