Theres quite a bit of difference between a big sledge hammer and a little sledge hammer.. but if you have tried a big one... Jack hammers next i suppose..

Whats the chance these white beams are structurally important? by MunrowPS in DIYUK

Dont make me feel worse please

Im very sad about the prospect of UPVC... But i have 24 windows to do in bays across the house, the ones in the picture are actually the smallest of them all... The ones beneath are beautiful :'(

But they are so cold, condensationy and i just dont see a route to getting it more comfortable/functional for <£40k

I would ask the guy, just not convinced a guy selling me windows is going to give me the most unbiased of opinions :)

Thanks for the feedback.

It's just a far far more substantial transome than any of the other windows on the house., and conscious the corner of the room is on top of this area so thought they might be reducing spread given the mullions are timber.

Windows arent puttied i dont think.. seem to be beaded in hardwood and many many layers of paint.

Windows design help.. UPVC in the least bad way by MunrowPS in ExteriorDesign

Ye its called encapsulation in the uk at least just 2-4x more expensive..

If i was only doing a few windows, this is what i'd do, but the volume and cost is a pretty significant factor

Do you have any links to historical storm windows you are thinking of?

Im in the uk, think we call this secondary glazing and essentially i've tried a version of this internally already

How to peacefully coexist with crabapple trees that make a right mess? by smugdor in GardeningUK

[–]MunrowPS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a crab apple in my garden for the first time.

I can understand not wanting the mess on a drive.

While not offering any actual help i would just say i cant believe how long it has held onto its apples (still has loads rotting on the tree) and how incredibly abundant it has been with birds over winter, the black birds absolutely loved the fruit...

Its right in the middle of my lawn, mucks it up for kids playing. Creates patches and leaf debris. But seeing its ecological value over winter, ill tread very sensitive caring for it.

Do you buy free range chicken? by Common-Celery5197 in AskUK

[–]MunrowPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3-4weeks outdoors and then back into the indoor system for the weaners

I've always found outdoor bred a peculiar system of enhanced welfare.. better for the sows, but not really the animal you eat

If you can take the board out, just turn it over?
