  1. When visitors come to my place, they cannot look at the time to go back because there is NO wall clocks Even I have bought 2 designs (including this one) online and delivered, but I have yet to install them because there is no 'decent' wall for me to hang them One side of the wall already has the wallpaper, the wall at dining area has a big Luo Pan, then one wall has opening for windows Left with the wall behind sofa but I am thinking of hanging a big picture frame. As the movement of clock hands is 'noisy' type, I can't stand the 'tick tick' and it is therefore not suitable for bedrooms. I am a light sleeper and can only fall asleep without sound and NO lights!! ....so, anything I don't like, I won't give to children too, .....hmmmmm.......this clock may end up in the kitchen
  2. Sharing my Rain Shower..... We are using gas water heater and so far no problem with the supply of hot water to 2 toilets, even at times we were using at the same time. Here is my rain shower at the common bathroom. http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?s=...st&p=624636 Things to look out for: 1. If you look closely at our rain shower, it has 'flat' top. Don't buy those with angle bent type which will affect the height if yours is restricted by beams or low ceilings. 2. When installing the rain shower, do consider your height and the preferred 'rain drop' effect. My children are very tall, hence, when the plumber came, we insisted that he raised the height 2 inches higher than normal installation. I hope you get what I mean.
  3. Sis Marshy ....and you saw this picture frame of the Vanishing Trades of Singapore with the Uncirculated Coins and Stamps Fyi, this frame was hung up on the wall just days before your visit I initally kept it inside the box in the store room, then I took it out & place on top of the fridge. Later, I find it quite wasteful because got $$$ wor, then I decided to hung it on the wall!
  4. hmmm....I'm starting to Really long time didn't travel to PP...looking forward to seeing you in person ...
  5. May also worried if GE falls on 21 May then we have to reschedule our gathering..,..really hurting to wait for 'gahmen' announcement!
  6. Can can, you can come over to my place any weekends. Can pm me & we will contact by SMS. As for next gathering, we are meeting the Boon Keng's gang tentatively on 21 May if it not a polling day Probably followed by another one in Sengkang?
  7. Hello, sis Jupiter If I happen to be around your work area, I meet you for coffee & cheesecake ok?
  8. Oh...like this ha....then your vote is very important wor. I remembered the last time I didn't get a chance to vote, walkover lor.
  9. 100% very yummy! If GE is on 21 May, then no choice lor.... We plan for another day...
  10. I think I have peeped at most blogs including yours sometimes in September before I registered my account when my reno was about to start. Thereafter, I was overhelmed with keeping my reno blog "live" with daily updates following my rigourous inspections on quality & workmanship, and sharing my knowledge on feng shui blog. Now, with my extreme makeover successfully completed, I like to share my experience & therefore started to 'kaypo' at other blogs Now, we are friends right? Your avatar is so cute .... this shows you are not the boring type!
  11. I thought 7-May is better date based on Tong Shu Polling station usually opens from 8:00am I guess you can Q-up before it opens. By the way, could your estate is 'Walk-over' no need to poll leh?
  12. Hi, froggy Thank you for visiting.... LOL...when I put on the socks for the chair legs, I never thought it looks cute on it until sis Marshy commented yesterday!
  13. I have PM you my contact and do call or sms me when you are back to parents place. That fishball mee stall used to sell a plate at $1.50 when I just moved in to my place in 1999. Now, it is selling at $2 / plate, still the cheapest as compared to the $2.50 for Wanton noodle. My blum runners is working well....only 2-months old wor....cannot have problem otherwise my ID will get another round of hardtime from me Actually, the carpentry workmanship is quite good! Anyway, we seldom open the drawers.....all just for 'show' only....hahahaha
  14. I should have thought of taking a photo of him!! Haiz.....talk & talk until I remembered to bring all food out except my camera. Nevermind, we meet again at May's place!
  15. Tell me earlier mah...then I can order frappies for you Daiso sells many cute stuffs and I got the 'socks' @ $2 for 4 pieces / pack.
  16. Actually, my late father was also 'gahmen' body....in the CID. When we were younger, our neighbour used to warn the other neighbour we "Arm Pai Char Bo Kia", meaning 'Detective daughter' dun play play .. :lol
  17. Your baking skill is The pantry area I am happy that I have a classified area now. When I relocated the sink, I can only think of turning that area into 'mini garden' where I can place the wooden bench which I can't bear to throw away (only this bench & few IKEA stuffs which you saw in my house which I recycle). Now, I spend my time reading books in that corner as it is very windy & have good views (unlike the converted tiny living room)..... . Then, you spotted the legs of our dining chairs wearing 'socks'..... The corners of the chair legs are quite sharp and have to prevent it hurting the 'human' legs and scratching the floors
  18. I actually did not notice the 'big' windows; only knew that we have 'wide' windows from corner to corner. Come to think of it, our windows are really big & wide! Here comes the 'pantry' which supposed to be the 'mini garden'.....now becomes 'pantry'
  19. GE falls on 21-May? Wow...you also work for 'gahmen' huh? Usually GE falls on a Saturday.....then plan your housewarming on Sunday lor...surely a very safe day!
  20. Hey, Merydith Thank you for dropping by.....so we were once neighbours huh?
