Divorce because I betrayed her trust - PART 6

[DaB35]

Advice please!

W has responded this afternoon (2 days after I emailed her) saying:

"Hi,

I'm happy for you to pay me for the other sofa. I'm also fine about the clock and potentially the light fitting, the only thing that worries me about the light is if it effects [sic] the house sale?

I'm trying to fill in the form but i'm a bit stuck on the financial bit. <question about self-employment earnings> I haven’t actually sorted out my earnings since April, for obvious reasons [slight dig there at me!].
Would you be happy for me to take an average earning from last tax year, it will be more than this year anyway as i've had to shut <business name> down for a bit because i've not really been coping with all the pressure.

W."

Initial query (UK people especially) - does replacing a 'nice' light fitting with a standard hanging bulb without cause the house's value to drop?

First draft response:

"Hi W

I would have thought that changing a light fitting shouldn't affect the sale dramatically.

I am sorry to hear that you have had to close <business> temporarily, and that you're finding it difficult to cope with everything.

<Brief explanation of how to record self-employment earnings - 1 or 2 sentences at most>

Have I validated enough, or should I elaborate a bit more?
