I honestly don’t think of Europe as a small town, I promise- I’m just saying I’ve been in many brilliant countries across Europe and I swear to you that I’ve never seen a screen. Where is the spider protection, I ask you?!
This should be particularly important, I think, in the Scottish Highlands, land of midges, who want nothing more than to feast on your flesh. Still, not a screen in sight, although I must admit you certifiably need a very fine screen to prohibit those pesky wee bastards. There seems to be a sort of gentlemen’s alliance though because it seems that the midge rarely enters a human dwelling, maybe out of fear of pure Scottish fury, but mark my words … they sit and wait.
I will digress also that in our defense, Scots do use midge nets when camping unless we’re on our 10th Tennant’s, in which case it’s really no bother
You just reminded of the time when I used to live in Germany. I had my window tilted open for a few hours that day, and when i was going to bed I found the biggest fucking spider I’ve ever seen right next to my fucking pillow! Why is no one talking about how big the spiders get in Bavaria?! It’s ridiculous! Those bastards get huge! Nothing compared to what i currently see where I live in the US.
It is truly bizarre how Europeans never use screens, make it make sense!!
We had them in Italy. But we also didn’t have these weird windows. Also stop acting like Europe is a small town on an island.

Its not like the few mosquitoes we have would be smart enough to enter my room through the sides of a lightly tilted window.
