We have a mix of sash windows and  and casement. I fitted limiters to the ones in the big bedroom at the back as although it is only 1st floor, it is 2nd floor really so a 30+ft drop. The limiters only allow the windows to open about 3" - they are easy enough to unscrew to clean the windows.

I remember when I was about 8, we moved from a ground floor flat to a house. Our cat tinker started exploring. The next thing we knew was she went upstairs and jumped out of the window  :scared: - luckily she was unhurt and never tried that again  :evillaugh:

I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable to the race would not remove my hostility to it.  Mark Twain
