I've got a sloping ceiling so the windows are those loft ones. They pivot around the middle of their length so fully opened they're like a seesaw and go to level, meaning they're only ever a quarter open. I can stick my head out and look over the roof for a breeze hit but that's about it. Nice while it lasts but I can't spend all day hanging out of the window. It's like 9/11 in here. The heat build up as you walk up the stairs to get to my flat is extraordinary but stepping in the flat is worse. Bloody South facing bastard.
