Oh I have the same problem when I go to the sportshall for an exercise
class with DW and I am to do the exercise by "following" the example of
the leader. And so when I have the wrong leg lifted or I'm up and the
leader is down, my explanation is that all the instructions are in
swedish and too fast so i don't understand them [not that I do in
english either]

but for the record, we have all the books for our viking machines in
english and swedish so that DW and I each have our own! but then when
she has a question, it is the swedish one that gets handed to me with
the comment of ok this is what i'm doing and here's the picture!

but she is my Swedeheart (DW not the symaskin)

Since I am of Swedish decent,

i pretty much think all Swedes are decent :-)
many are downright nice and then there are the sewers and quilters who
are just specially wonderful!

and the report is that there are many more people of swedish descent in
USA than Sweden!

[and if it weren't for a swedeheart coming into my life 8 years ago, I
wouldn't be reading the quilting, sewing, and yarn newsgroups, nor would
i have two looms and my own viking 936 serger or things like hanging
round the cutting table and hancock fabrics and kibitzing about
sergers.... all her fault and I love her for it. so last month I spent
a day at the Virginia Episcopal Seminary showing stoles I have woven and
one in process on the loom, only a tabletop rigid heddle loom]

If you opened the door when the machine was full of water ....
disaster a la Frank Spencer!!

You can drain the water off mid cycle - but then you would have to
start all over again.

Hej Jessamy

We want to send flowers for death of long-time friend in Enchede.
Do you have suggestion for local florist?
After many years of sending flowers in Sweden, I have concluded it is
better to go to local florist than to try one of the large, impersonal,
take-your money 'internationals' such as tele-flora.

Now that I have translated, I found a google hit for Bloemist Enschede
but which seems to be a national concern Florient Expressen. and also

Is there an on-line telphone directory for Enschede or Nederlands (
telefoon stratenlijst enschede)

after swedish, reading dutch is not so far but I am sure I can't
pronounce it and don't do so well in Swedish.

tack för hjälpen

Yes, they do lock, BUT, there is a pause button! When the pause button
is pressed the machine stops, one can open the door and add additional
things.

I have used this feature during the first 5 or 10 minutes and it works
well, I have never tried to use it after those first 10 minutes.

Also, the Whirlpool says nothing about left over water/gunk, no little
door to drain (like the LG). If there is condensation on the glass
window at the end of "wash day", I let the door stand open until it
evaporates. Pinkee Squeeek-A-Lotta has shown no interest in exploring
the interior, of course she sleeps 23 out of every 24 hours and spends
the other 1 hour eating, begging for treats and using the litter box.
;~)

I use the machine once a week (unless new fabric has been acquired)
and have never noticed a musty/moldy odor.
