oh wow, I didn't know you could do that! Will it not cut down on the amount of sunlight you will get though Moli?

Oh, that's much bigger than I thought it was. What a lovely place to sit in the colder weather now that it's insulated; I know the cats must love it .....

Makes it almost like a proper room rather than a conservatory. Still, if it makes it a usable space in all seasons I guess the slight loss of light is a small price to pay.

The roof is sheets of plastic Kazz....
We will not loose much in the way of sunlight, its a huge room...
It does stop the rain noise too.....
