Random thoughts which flit through the transom of your mind.....

[IDMark2]

I was thinking the other day 'I wonder what definitions for the word 'transom' there are, I must look it up when I get home.' and completely forgot about it until today for some reason. Quite random that.

I think TBM was trying to describe his fantasy haircut but didn't quite get the right word ending for it.

A mullion is a central structural vertical part of a window, the transom is a structural horizontal part. Astragals are the infill non-structural supports for smaller panes of glass. The jamb is the side piece against the wall. The cill is the bottom piece to throw the water off the bottom of the window away from the wall... here to help 24 hours a day.

There is now no doubt that there is a lot about windows in @Archie_tect 's mind.

I was looking at some listed buildings the other day and wondering what the 'missing mullions' were!

Actually I was hoping to meet an Astragal up here on the moon...
I'll get my module.

If you never go, how do you know?

I was reflecting on the twin dogs of time baying and howling at their chains.

I may feck off out and lighten up a bit.

I once bought a meal for 10 people in Djibouti and it cost 1,100,000 Djibouti Dollars (with a tip).

So that was $ 199999 for the grub then.

I was wondering what sort of mind-bending drugs were consumed by the people who "styled" the Nissan Joke Juke.

Yeah, but what about the reveal?????

 

[young Ed]

Nice thought.
My fav that we owned was a LWB Defender 90

the LWB version is the 110 and the 90 is the SWB version, so the question is which did you have?
or did you have both?
Cheers Ed

 

[Archie_tect]

Well, technically, the reveal isn't part of a window...

 

[Archie_tect]

...though I do prefer splayed reveals as they reduce the likelihood of disabling glare.

Dammit!
It was definitely a LWB as we kitted out the inside where the rear folding seats were, with proper seats.
Also added chequered plating, high level air intake etc. So it was a 110 LOL
