My sash window won't open because of old paint has glued it shut. Any
idea how to unstick the window? I could use paint stripper then repaint
but I'm hoping for a less labour intensive solution here.

If they're anything like mine a blunt chisel and hammer and a bit of
brute force. I restored all of mine using a DIY kit from
http:\\www.diysashwindow.co.uk they were in a right mess, work a treat
now
