here is another example page
Do not edit the Twenty Ten theme. It is the default WordPress 3.1 theme and having access to an unedited version of the theme is vital when dealing with a range of site issues.
Create a child theme for your customisations. Once your child theme is active, we should be able to help with the customisation.

I have a child theme that didnt help much
You are not using a child theme. You are using a modified version of Twenty Ten.

oh hahah - well I will create a child theme but could you just tell me where to go in the main theme and then I will do that in the child?
Try increasing the right margin on #content. It's currently only set to 280px - which is less than your sidebar's width.

WordPress handles all of that automatically.
