Oozing Goo - The Lava Lamp Syndicate

Well summer has started with an early blast here in Australia - here's the weather for the week in degrees celsius starting from last Friday: Friday 34, Saturday 36, Sunday 37, Monday 37, Tuesday 38, Wednesday 39, Friday 39, Friday 39, Saturday 34, Sunday 29 - phew!

Prime sun fading weather as you can see:


The heat seems to get more and more intense every year - either that or I really am getting old and can't hack the pace any more!

Anyway, I hope all you folks up there in the northern hemisphere enjoy the coolness of Autumn - just spare a thought for us sweaty Aussies next time you think it's too cold - I'll swap you anytime ;-)

Actually this bottle started out as a red and blue believe it or not, except it was a bad dye run and the wax was pretty much chocolate brown - looked pretty disgusting when it was on really... so I've been fading it through hopefully to a caramel / orange / yellow... shouldn't take long in this heat...
Cheers! Yeah I couldn't believe it when I saw it flowing... Ah the heat... it gets scary when the air con safety switch cuts in at 40 degrees and the unit turns itself off! Great piece of engineering that is :-\

We also have regular rolling black outs in summer here because electricity demand is so high, so far so good though ;-)
I think it's so intensely hot because we don't have much ozone layer in this part of the world anymore... plus I must be getting soft in my middle age!

Btw that bottle actually started out a lot darker than this. I started fading it last summer, and when it's running on its base it turns a deep caramel with gold hilights running through it. It hasn't actually burnt as far as I know... It's still a bit too dark though so I'm hoping that it'll end up a deep gold with orangey hilights once I've finished fading it. I'll post some pics once it 's done :)
ive seen it all now, gosh it must be very hot to get the wax and liquid warm enough to blob
