Got the Estate Agent coming to value our house, I have minimized everything even more this morning, but it is a dark dreary day here, should I put some lamps on throughout the house or does that just make you think its a dark house anyway (it isnt). Hes coming at 2!

soft lighting always looks warming on a dull day,

Yes - unobtrusive lights. But an estate agent won't bother - he/she may tell you to save it for viewings. Escape to the Country houses invariably have lights on.

No point offering my view your agent has been and gone! Lamps on for viewing on a dark day is a good idea though not sure we have ever done it.Good Luck.?

Thankyou, lights went on, then off, but it had brightened up outside, so didnt feel as gloomy, he was impressed, he's been and gone.....now where the flipping heck do we move to???
