Counting one's blessings

       

A home owner in The Netherlands bought and moved into a house. After 3 months, he checked the electrical installation (he has an engineering background) and counts his blessings. The picture shows a connection box for a washing machine which was a ticking time bomb. It was only a matter of time before the poor connection caused a fire, for example when the washing machine is running at night and residents are sleeping.

When seeing this picture, I immediately agreed within my own family not to run the washing machine or dryer when we're out of the house.
