One of the bed room windows has an old metal Venetian blind which doesn’t drop down to cover the entire window, so didn’t block out the blinding sun. Consequently, we were awake at sunrise every day. A blackout blind would be cheap and easy to install. Also, garden is very unkempt, so we did not feel inclined to sit outside which we would have liked to have done. Bathroom could do with a revamp.
