Making the Most of Your Windows

About Me

Hello, my name is Terry and this is my window blog. I started this blog as a way to explain and explore my passion for everything to do with windows. My friends think my love of windows is a bit strange but to me it seems completely natural. Windows let in the light of the world and allow us to look out and view the rest of humanity. They are important. I am not a window professional but over the years I have learnt a lot about different types of windows. I hope you find my blog inspiring and useful.
