2. simple (simplify)
3. green
Each week I have to find photos I have taken recently (or yesterday) which each time starts with another letter. This time it is H. I have the choice between a lots of H's but I want to make a story out of the 3 words.
Near Waterloo is an old house which had been transformed into a museum for fountains and the whole history of water. How the people tried to stay clean and how difficult it was to get water before we had bathrooms and all the facilities of today.
This is the house
and a very simple way to wash.
outside stood a fountain in the green water !
Imagine you would have to wash your bedlinen in this very first washing machine ! You would have to fill it with water, heat it with coal or wood add soap and then turn the wheel around ! This was a machine used beginning 1800.
And today what do you do ? You choose the program, push a button and watch a film on TV or go shopping or clean your house while the machine does everything except putting the laundry in the closets !
