My bedroom window in my Edinburgh flat faces directly onto a busy street. I love having the window open for fresh air but I hate that everyone can see straight into my room, especially at night with the lights on. I feel like I have no privacy. What's a simple solution?

Oh mate, I had the exact same issue in my flat in Manchester. My bedroom window looked out onto a main road and every evening I'd find myself crouching down to avoid being seen. Closing the curtains made the room feel stuffy and cut off all the fresh air. Then a colleague recommended frosted window film and I found https://www.tintfit.com/shop/frosted. I ordered a roll, gave it a go, and honestly it was so easy – soapy water, a squeegee, half an hour and done. Now I can leave my window open all evening, enjoy the breeze, and not worry about a thing. The light still comes through beautifully but nobody can see in. My room feels private and peaceful again, and I actually sleep better knowing I'm not on display. Best small change I've made.
