    we never managed to get a blackoutblind which fitted to make complete darkness so I hemmed some blackout fabric the size of the window frame and attached velcro to it. The other 'sticky' side of the velcro was stuck to the window frame, so that the blackout lining can go up and come down as necessary. the sticky velcro is easy to remove from the frame if you move house or no longer need it. Very mse - cost £3 in total to make, and black out lining doesn't have to be hemmed so easy if you are a non sewer. Plus it meant we could have the blinds we wanted, not worrying about whether they would shut out the light of not.

    Does D have Eczema? I have a terrible memory so not to sure if you said he has.

    D can have eczema really severely although it is mainly triggered by his allergies. As long as neither he nor I eat any dairy or soya then it is much more manageable
