I have just been nosing a planning approval for a local house, which
is to have a first floor bedroom added and a dining room. The dining
room is to be added at the back, to what was the French windows to
the garden.

The other end of the lounge is a wall with a door. Which basically
means the lounge will have no windows at all, no light apart from
that which comes through from the new dining room. Which means it
will be awfully dark in the lounge. I thought (living) rooms had to
have some natural source of light?

You just have to call it a home cinema ...
