 * I’m trying to work out a way to reduce the padding/margin between blog posts 
   on my home page. For clarity, see image showing areas in question. Is there some
   CSS code I can add to do this?

 * Hello morts81,
 * => Put below css code into Additional CSS textarea (Dashboard >> Apperance >>
   Customize) then click on Save & Publish button.
    => If there is no Additional
   CSS option then put below css code into your current theme’s **style.css** file
   located at wp-content/themes/your_current_active_theme/ folder.
 * `
    body.home .posts .post{ padding-bottom: 5px; } body.home .column{ margin-top:
   20px } body.home .column h2{ margin-top: -25px; } @media only screen and (max-
   width:480px){ body.home .column h2 { margin-top: 0px; } body.home .column h2 {
   margin-top: -45px; } }
 * **Note : All Changes you done in style.css or other file are gone when you update
   theme. So prefer [Child Theme](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)**
 * Hope this will helps you.
