Huh you guys serious about booking multi-purpose hall for this?? Hmmz, I was thinking along the lines of SOMEONE's flat, esp those that can see fireworks one...hehe... volunteer?? Its more cosy to be at home rather than in public; cannot talk loudly, cannot do anything or if crowded also cannot sit too long, etc. Somemore we are still going to have potluck right? Easier to have at home... No need ice-breaking games lah, just come along! Everyone is very friendly one, ultimate objective is to know more neighbours mah! As long as you come with the sincere intention to make friends, it will be fine. Kopi kakis already established liao, usually every sat afternn or evenings. I will pm u my contact...

Yes, need to drill holes to attach the curtain rods, otherwise how?? Also check out spotlights; saw that its quite economical also...

From the beginning, none of us knows each other! I guess that makes it even easier to break the ice; if the group is already formed then one will feel paiseh to join in. I shall add in your name ah...hehe... CNY Lou Hei 2008 Date: 16th Feb 08 / 17th Feb 08 Venue: (TBC) Attendance List: 1.

Hmmz about the dates, its quite tricky, but I believe everyone would prefer weekends right? How about 16th or 17th Feb 08? Most of your CNY celebrations would have been over, those who go overseas to 'tao nian' would be back, etc. Anyone want to suggest other dates...?

Is there a need to post twice? Esp for things that are not true... Had a casual talk with a HDB officer the other day, told me that its on PURPOSE that there are no BBQ pits on the roof gardens of MSCPs; not just in Tanglin Halt, but others as well. This is to prevent fire hazard and also because the roof is not easily accessible by fire engines. Also the block is very near the roof garden, the smoke would affect the lower levels' residents. And I was like...what the...?? If they had bothered to check, several condos in Singapore with sky terraces also have BBQ pits on them! And that's like 20-storeys or higher lor! So they meant to say people who stay in condos got stronger life or better resistant to smoke/fire ah...? Civil servants...trust them for being overly-conservative, mann... Anyway, seemed like all are spoiling for a gathering huh?? Well if want to do then let's do it big! Hmmz, the next big thing is Chinese New Year! I posted before liao, anyone still keen for Lou Hei?? We can do potluck, no need to pay money or whatever, just bring your own food!

One day, a father spoke to his son; Father: I want you to marry a girl of MY choice. Son: "No, I will choose my own bride!" Father: "But the girl is Bill Gates's daughter." Son: "Well, in that case...OK" Next day...father approaches Bill Gates; Father: "I have a husband for your daughter." Bill Gates: "But my daughter is too young to marry!" Father: "But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank." Bill Gates: "Ah, in that case... OK" Finally father goes to see the president of the World Bank; Father: "I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president. " President: "But I already have more vice- presidents than I need!" Father: "But this young man is Bill Gates's son-in-law." President: "Ah, in that case... OK" This is how business is done!! Morale of the story: Even if you have nothing, you can get anything. But your attitude should be positive.

I second the idea to give to STOMP instead of the police. Especially so if the violence is short-lived, by the time the police comes they would have stopped; if you call a few times the police might even label you as nuisance caller. Can you do video instead, to show that its night-time? Eg start filming away from the window and walk towards it, so the sounds become louder and more real in the video.

Welcome to our neighbourhood!! Do come along for meetups and get to know everyone, ya?? We are all friendly people, dun worry...

****, I just killed the one that came to my home the other day!!

If I were you I will swerve in immediately and let him kiss my bumper head-on, so that my insurance claim sure successful. Side impact is only a 50-50 case. Anyone who saw my bumper before will know that it is badly in need of a thorough paint job. Oops, see men's ego at work again...haha...

Yeah, anything goes, man. Its just your conscience that you have to answer to...

Let me put this very bluntly for you: Nobody will know, only your consicence knows. Like I mentioned in the above post, is the agent the effective cause for this transaction? If he is, then pay him. If he is not, then don't pay. Effective cause simply means he is instrumental for the transaction to take place. You are correct here, but remember we are talking about the buyer disappearing after first viewing, do not have your contact and came back to find you via your personal ad. However, there are alot of cases where both seller and buyer are not in a hurry, they decide to wait until the exclusive agreement is over so that they both do not have to pay any comm.

If its wasn't stated in the contract that you signed and you had never seen it before, then tell them go fly kite. Usually from what I know is that the T&C are all within the same sheet of exclusive agreement that you sign. The onus is on them to prove the case to small claims tribunal, ie you are aware of and had agreed to the T&C. Dun worry yourself over this. This is very true. Even if the exclusive agreement had ended, but the seller/buyer approaches each other and close under similiar conditions (eg price, move-in date, etc) as per negotiated together with the agent, then they still have to pay comm. The objective is to prove that the agent is the effective cause for the transaction to go thru, ie bringing the seller/buyer together.

Totally agreed.

But hor, then again easier said than done lah. As Singaporeans, I think we are programmed from birth to fight for our "rights" whatsoever consequences, me not excluding.

My driving motto to share: At the end of the day, its not about who is right or wrong, but about whether can avoid accidents or not. So what if you are in the right of the way? Once an accident happens, everyone lose. Even if you can claim against the other driver, your car damaged also still heartpain mah. If its bad, someone may even lose their life. Totally not worth at all to fight for your "rights" on the road - let's fight for our lives instead.

Just make sure dun have that kind of situation in HK serials where they met downstairs or at toilet then quarrel before coming into the room!! *touchwood* Why not try to find similiar topics/hobbies that both parents like, eg fathers play golf, or both mums also like the fishhead bee hoon at Holland, etc. Then when sit down together you can start something like, "Mum, Mrs xxx also like the fishhead been hoon one leh!" If they are savvy enough they will know how to continue the topic themselves...

Wow I really wanna go see simplehuman after your description! Anyone interested in Brabantia, shiny silver 20L?? Less than 4 months old!!
