"I'll give you back the rubber duckie if you promise to wash behind your ears". The monkey jumps up and down, jabbering and chortling with glee ... no-one tells an elephant what to do

I met this man in Remera Cell, Rutsiro district in western province of Rwanda washing his clothes in the lake. He told me that in this area to get pure water is a big issue and many of them use water from the lake Kivu in their daily life.
As I was transferring the clothes from the washing machine to the tumble drier, I dropped them on the floor 😟
Happily, the floor wasn't dirty so I just bunged them in the drier 😜
A friend of mine wished a washing line on a cosmetic bag.....
Now this cosmetic bag is finished - pew! Especially these cute red pants were a little tricky....
This has to be one of the coolest old things I have ever seen. You have to wonder if it still works.
Probably taken at the Hahn home on Harrison Street near 24th, San Francisco. I think that's Bob Ehlers and Dorothy Hahn. Date stamped April 18, 1947. Photographer was Al Richter.
Previous washing machine was as almost old as I am. Unfortunately she broke day ago, so we bought new. Tadah! Our new washing machine all white with shiny lights. ;-)
We each only brought a handful of changes of clothes, and they got dirty quickly, so we needed to wash them. This is how we did it. We definitely got a sense of how everyone used to wash clothes a hundred years ago, but the majority of people in the world even today still use this method. It really gave us a sense of how lucky we are to have modern conveniences like automatic washing machines.
We got some water from the giant water container, then poured some detergent into the water. We then scrubbed (and scrubbed and scrubbed) our clothes trying to get all the dirt out. We then used a fresh bucket of water to rinse them off. We then set them out of the clothesline to dry.
It felt to us like this was taking forever. Even some of the LDP students remarked how slow we were at this. One of them claimed he could wash his entire wardrobe in just 2 hours. I suppose once you've done it awhile, you get used to it.
"They have painted and sung
the women washing their hair,
and the plaits and strands in the sun,
and the golden combs
and the combs of elephant tusks
and the combs of buffalo horn and hoof.
The sun has been good to women,
drying their heads of hair
as they stooped and shook their shoulders
and framed their faces with copper
and framed their eyes with dusk or chestnut.
The rain has been good to women.
If the rain should forget,
if the rain left off for a year—
the heads of women would wither,
the copper, the dusk and chestnuts, go.
They have painted and sung
the women washing their hair—
reckon the sun and rain in, too."
~ Carl Sandburg, 1878-1967 ~
Lake Pichola in Udaipur, Rajasthan, India being used for washing of all sorts - clothes, hair, body.
My washing machine begun acting up, it was really loud and the drier would not work. I called a repair guy, he fixed the drier part, but he said the roaring form the machine is happening because the bearings are gone. The replacement would const about 200€ so I said thank you and begun taking it apart :-)
It is still work in progress. At the moment my washing machine is distributed throught my whole apartment :-D
