No, *you* just spent a minute on the radio condescendingly explaining that ‘windows’ have nothing to do with ‘wind’.

Answer to your question, "What is higher than King?" Emperor. The Emporer is higher than the Empress because of genitalia, obviously😉 just as the King is higher than the Queen for the same reason of having the crown 👑 jewels between legs😂
That's a windup surely.
Didn’t Trump say “ They’re building homes Without Windows “ ?
He’s not wrong. You could do the whole thing on a Mac.
Missing the context is an absolute pane.
Nicely framed pun.
Quite.
We're in the middle of a loft conversion. I can tell you that windows (well, to be more precise, big holes in the roof where the windows will go) definitely do have something to do with wind blowing through the house!
Bet they're using Linux...
Stop gaslighting me.
That’s nothing. I just spent a minute listening to some guy saying windows have nothing to do with wind.
Did you remember to tell us if that chap's girlfriend got the job?
A very cryptic message unless there's something here I can't see. Anyway, love the show, James.
I was probably too many years old when I realised it was a windscreen in a car & not a window screen. 🫤
madoken.jp/en/series/31...). Comes from the old norse forward eye as the literal translation. A hold for light AND control of air or wind.
This may be a wind up.
wind ow t.
I mean. They can stop it.
There will be a lot of "Actually..." in this thread x) Love the show, James.
Nordic for wind eye
Nordic isn't a language
You're not a pink statue
I never said it was, it's just that I knew the root of the word was from somewhere in the region.
I mean you literally did
I care, duh. what you have there is a chart with some germanic languages, an inuit language and a uralic language. the word you wanted was Germanic. You don't have to get sand in your fanny because someone corrected you
The World loves a pedant:)
excuse me for providing the correct information, the world would prefer to be wrong than be called wrong I guess
Well spent minute 😆
Context???
🤣🤣
No pane no gain
No I didn't...
James, you are a voice of reason in a world gone to what "Charlie Brown" used to say "Good grief". And as "Sally" said "East is east and Mark Twain wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer".
10 or 11?
Clearly you have triple-glazed units. Plenty of wind comes through our windows, even when they are closed.
At least you saw straight through them.
Or female deers.....
Intriguing 🤔
Why don’t houses have windscreen wipers?
WinDoh 😂😂
I didn’t I swear!
Why would you?!
Ah, but wind screen wipers?
Screen wipers are no made o wind. 👍😁
Hmm 🤔 is this more Trump Don Quixote talk of windmills
Given that the word comes at least in part from the old German word WindAuge (eye of the wind), I'm not sure I would want to defend that view.
In the period when glass-making was pretty much a lost technology, the holes which would formerly have been glazed remained useful but draughty
They don’t?
Even stained?🤔
Oh yes... Wind's eye.
What about “ows”?
I know a lot about wind
Only about the best winds though.
But they DO keep the wind out 😂
Which version are you running?
Is this a wind up?
I've got no context and completely lost 😂
I have to say it did make me laugh out loud. Brilliant.
Actually comes from old norde 'vindyr' meaning wind. Who said it doesn't? Who's *you* ?
🤨 I guess I needed to listen in today to understand that.
Me too. I’ll listen on “catch up” tonight ☺️
I know. I listen on catch up. Looking forward to this mystery (hour?) becoming clear.
