Oh, there's nothing wrong with the quality so your windows must be
clean:)))
Those back windows are the original ones. House built in 1934 - they
don't make glass like that any more. :)

I think those pre-war houses were made of really good stuff all round.
It was before the builders started to cut down wherever they could. I
know what you mean about the glass. you're right!

For one thing the timber was well seasoned in those days, so you tended not
to get as much warping as happens to modern wood.
