To finish an old crossword and put me out of my misery ...
Can “CLOTHING” be “Something worn by stupid person talking at the window”.?? I have
- L - T - I - G
The something worn is obvious. CLOT = stupid person but I can’t tie HING with “talking at the window”. Or is it just Glasgow slang for THING?

HING is Glasgow slang for hang (hang out the window) to talk to neighbours.

Hmm... I went through hing - hang too but it didn’t sit comfortably that “at the window” = “hang”.
I’ll live with it.
Thank you.

It is relevant to tenement properties where you could "hing oot the windae"and talk to someone in the back court or at an adjacent window.

Geri, Stevie's right - and Hing = hang out, lean out of a window is in my Chambers Scots Dictionary.
