Owning your own home

Thanks. If it were a main room, then I'd have got Everest to add it to the quote. But it is only going to be a box room/spare room (when I can get time to finish the clean and decorate) so the windows just need to not look gross and be able to shut. The one on the right has a gap at the hinge as I think the mechanism is worn out. But if I can push it to from the outside by leaning out the left one, I'll just lock the handles closed and be done with it.

It's interesting as the gap meant that's how most of the smoke left the room so it was the mankiest spot. It seems nicotine/tar stains are worst in the points where either there was no air movement (so it hung around like the literal bad smell) or where the air left the room (door/window gaps - where it gets concentrated/funneled).
