Windows

I'm not quite sure why but I have a bit of an obsession with the window design over here.  Not only do our house windows look good, but they are double glazed and have not one, but two different ways of opening.  So here for your viewing pleasure is a snapshot of our bedroom window in all it's double-glazed glory.....

Key:
1. Handle down - window closed
2. Handle up - window open a smidge
3. Handle horizontal - window open fully

And anyone studying these pictures in detail will have noticed that something is missing.  Yep - fly screens, the reason being there aren't any flies.

Well actually that's not strictly true - there are flies that hang around the cows and their pats in Mill Meadow, but it seems that English flies are far more well behaved than Australian ones and stay where they should.  So - at the end of the day....

J the flies bug the cows and sit on their pats 

 and 

we get open windows and don't need corks in our hats J
