Do you close your lounge curtains at night ?

I have just got back in after a long cold but invigorating walk with the boys I love walking at night - with oh!

We are surprised at how many people sit in their lounge at night with the curtains open and all the lights and tv on
You can see straight into their homes - clearly !!

So when you walk into your lounge at night do you close the curtains or leave them open ?

As soon as the light fades we close doors, curtains and batten down the hatches at night - especially in the winter

I close curtains etc so as to save energy on heat loss. No wonder people complain about their fuel bills when all their heat is escaping out of the windows

We shut all the blinds as we don't like curtains as such.

Thankfully living where I do, not many (if any) people pass the house. Even if they do, they've still got quite a distance before they can see in through any of the windows.

I'm just amazed at the lack of privacy You can not only see all their possessions but half naked bodies

Only by people walking along the beach, but I still like to close them at night as it stops the dogs barks at the nosey sods who feel that they have to look over the fence.
