How to change space between body and floating blocks in Essential?

Is it possible to change the space shown with an arrow in the picture? If so, how? It's not a big problem, but it's just a waste of space.

This issue only seems to affect the Home Page of my course, as the course pages seem to be fine. 

It all started when I used .block {width:80%; margin-bottom: 5px; padding: 2px; } so the blocks would be smaller, in Essential blocks are humongous!

I've tried using #block-region-side-pre and post, body, #page, body and #page-content margins to no avail. Help!

Home page block and content

Oops, sorry - missed the 'in Essential' bit of the title

But what version of Essential and what version of Moodle please?

@moderator - this may be better moved across to the Themes forum where Gareth is more likely to see it. Thanks
