    So.....
    Voile didn't work
    Duvet cover didn't work
    Blackout blind doesn't work

    What about sheets of newspaper blue-tacked onto the glass?
    or a laptop.....

    I just tried that but I can't see the on-off switch on the front of the monitor now. And it makes the screen greasy.

    I now have the hooks and dowelling to do this thing. I'm not getting instant, simple, cheap sources of shading material people.....
