Wood verses aluminium windows double glazed retro fitted.

Chris Soutar from Soutar-able Glass

Now is a good time while the weather is more settled to update your tired windows with double glazing for a warmer cozier home.
Aluminium window frames are a natural conductor of cold and tends to draw in the damp hence wet sills and weepy windows,when double glazed this greatly improves the installation and can eliminate weepy windows.
My favorite are timber windows.wooden frames are natural insulators and when combined with double glazing provides great installation. Timber also can be repaired if damaged or rotten. If painted and sealed properly should last a long time.i do timber windows as well as double hung windows re weighted .
For a free friendly quote timber or aluminium windows call Chris 021642428 or vist my web site www.soutar...
I have 40 years of glazing experience and endeavor to do the best possible job for you, with pride in my work
For September 10% of timber windows.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition

Ernest Rutherford Retirement Village

The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.

For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.

What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
