Manda - that is incredible - at first I thought it was covered in real cheese, and the bottle was made from cheese too. >dum<

Well done you!

Hi Manda, the heat melting it must be a real pain.
However, I do know of a way to stop that happening but it can't be written I would have to tell you in person. +elf+
