Our Neighbour Has Built A Single Storey Conservatory With Windows That Look Into Our Kitchen Window?

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

We have a large kitchen diner with 2 windows, one of which looks directly into our neighbours kitchen (left side of the room) (so the blind is always closed), then one on the right side that looks into the garden. The neighbour on the right has just built a conservatory with normal windows all the way round.
Because the conservatory has been built about 3 or 4 foot from the 3foot fence (which belongs to the neighbour and has been erected in our land, not where it should have been), her windows look directly into our kitchen, into the only window that we could open the blinds on. The woman next door owns her house, we rent ours from the council and she hates us for it. She has told me that we are council scum because we don’t own our house, so we can’t speak to her about anything. She’s really nosey and is always looking in now.
Is there not a law about invasion of privacy? The council are not helpful, as usual, so I need to give them the facts! Trouble is, I don’t know them yet!

I’m Looking For Something That Will Block The Sun Out Of My Baby’s Room, Window Tint Or Something? Any Help?

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

The sun shines bright into his room and I would like something to put on the window to make it darker. Is there something that is like a window cling that will block the sun out of his room? I’ve tried hanging a black blanket up but now that he’s walking, he could pull the whole thing down along with the nails that is holding the blanket up and it’s not safe. Is there something that will block the sun out without being hazardous to my walking baby?

Hi, your real lucky to have a sun room. I would hang some big beautiful Boston Ferns, below you could put some Azaleas,Gardenia ,some Gerbera Daisy’s, African Violets,And a big Ficus Benjamina, or corn stalk plant. There are lots of summer flowers that would grow very well in small containers. Marigolds, Petunias,Daisy’s Blue Lobillia.( Hope I’ve spelled those correctly) Bye.

What Would You Call Those Ties That You Use To Tie The Material Of A Gazebo Onto The Frame?

Monday, February 15th, 2010

those inch wide material ties? the ties on my gazebo have snapped/rotted (I left the gazebo up all year) & I want to buy the material strips so I can sew some back on – but I don’t know what to call them!
I’m searching on ebay but I don’t know what to call it. A roll of that strong material/ties is what I am looking for.
What do I call it?
Hope that makes sense,
thanks :)
