      Our block of 36 is three levels and three sets of 12 apartments, with all kitchens, toilets-bathrooms facing into a big concrete driveway / walkway. The toilet-bathrooms have frosted glass of course, but from our kitchen we can see three other kitchens and walking down the stairs we could see into all 12 kitchens in our section if they didn’t have blinds.

      We have venetian blinds which we keep angled to let light in but stop, for the most, part others seeing in. We believe we’re perfectly normal in wanting a bit of privacy in the kitchen.

      But three apartments in our section either don’t have blinds or keep them open the whole time. Weirdly, perhaps, all three are let to young women aged in their 20s or early 30s. 

      We’re a family of four. It’s embarrassing. Fairly often you see the girls in their bathrobes or something flimsy for lounging around, but a few nights ago one was fussing in the kitchen in her knickers and a t-shirt. They don’t seem to care. They never seem to look out or up to see who’s looking in.

      I’m not a peeping tom or a pervert but I feel like one and shouldn’t be made to. It doesn’t seem right. What can we do to get them to put their blinds down, or get some venetians or material blinds which will let light through but avoid embarrassment?
