Quick! I can’t shake the feeling I’ve left a candle lit when I went out

On my way to an interview, I’ll be out until 8/9pm.

It was a brand new Aldi jo Malone dupe one in a glass pot, on a stone draining board, a plant nearby and a soda stream about 6 inches from it.

I remember blowing it out, I’m sure I do, but I can’t shake the feeling I haven’t.

If I go back home now I’ll miss the interview (already rearranged once so this is last chance saloon, I won’t get the job). The only person with spare keys won’t be home until midnight.

Do I go home?! I don’t know what to do

Thank you Smile

I didn’t light one this morning (because I now know candles are not for daytime Wink) so it’s a much more relaxing day Grin

Excellent work OP.

Congratulations! Even if you had left it lit it was unlikely to cause any damage on a stone surface. I've left them burning all night before, thankfully nothing happened other than wasting almost an entire £60 candle Blush

Huge congratulations- i would definitely call that a success! (Ps I light candles in the day all the time !)

@Ithinkwerealonenowtiffany sending you positive vibes for your Interview too! X
