Hi Crystal, Please also take note of the timing of open your new door. I remembered mine is around 4pm to 6pm, so I went to my new flat early but wait outside until the time is right. Also, for renovation date, you also need to see you and your spouse ba zi too. I remembered mine is in the morning with the timing too. Bring 1 new hammer tie with red string and hammer the living room floor and say renovation started, huat ah and all heng heng all! If your contractors want to help you, then remember to ask your contractor come at the specific hour to start the reno. Best regards. Happy

Hi Pur, I still need to slowly ready your post, but then saw your last para. 1) Mine sliding is (I think so) not chrome..kind of aluminum for all the side. Something like U shape. Also, remember when you close the sliding door, the door will hit the side wardrobe right? So you must have a soft cushion attached to the sliding door. So that when you close the door, it will not have a loud bang. 2) I dont have any handles for my wardrobe. 3) Ask your id for to do one secret compartment. Just below the drawer. At least you can hit your valuables thing. She will know.

Hi PUR Hold on the your payment, that is the only resort. Dont pay up even your id ask for it as most of the things have not been recitified. I am sure you have the measurement right? Maybe you can write it down in excel or words, email 1 copy to her. Assuming all your reno is completed, dont give the last payment, check for defect and told her you need to check before giving her the last payment. Hope that helps. How about your electrical? I mean you lights installation? If you cannot find 1 or dont trust your id, I can recommend my electrician to you. Also not from my id too. He also fixed tioletry items too. His rate is ok and consider cheap. Do let me know if you need any helps. Happy

Hi Linggie...plse invite me, afterall, I just a few floor from you. Mine is 108, you are 106 right?

I think it is better to put cardboard on the floor right? Why do double thing especially sway sway laminate spoilt and need to replace? Who bear the cost of replacing?

My mum regret not overlay! All hbd tiles are terrible. They use very very cheap materials. Even the common corrider tiles also terrible. Easiler get dirty! Not standard at all!

Hi SOX, Which block you live in? Mine is blk25b. Happy

There is a YoungNtuc forum where all young parents topics: http://www.youngntuc.com.sg/youngntuc/viewforum.php?f=169 I am also regular over there to discuss topics on parenting. Do come in to have more details.

Yes Agreed with Jeda. And also for school bus fee, normally you place deposit for 2 months for Dec and jun holiday also need to give 2 months in advance.

Normally they will let you see a list whether you want to stay in class A,B etc... And you need to place a deposit when booking for a room and delivery. Afterthat, all is medisave liao. I remembered for my cases, after deducting the mediasave, and the cash deposit I placed, they actually refund me back the money. Yes, having kids means more expenses. Really headache too especially stages after stages, it requires financial needs.

1) oic....my undermount is cos I do concrete support for it. So, if water leak inside it is ok as I did a concrete stand at the sink and stove area. 2) Door bell, hmmm I installed it myself but the wire inside seow seow. When switch on the kitchen light, the door bell ring! I asked my electrician (who recently came to do some of the lighting: not from my id), he told me other places also like that. 3) Door lock, I find many of our neighbours use those squarish type where just mounted on the metal gate will do. Well, you may walk around your area and see your neighours door lock.

Yes definately save alot of money. And also children very fast grow up, no point buying so many cloths. Of course for outing or during cny, then buy lah. Wear at home can dont need to buy.

Hi JAZZ....aiyo...you make me scare liao. Mine is undermount...hopefully all is ok. Planning to have extra 3 point plug in the MBR and extra 2 lighting point at my living room. Might also install a tube underneath my top kitchen cabinet too...

This is what I heard, dont know true or not. Male sperm swim very fast, sprinter, but they exhaust very fast and die very fast too if cannot find any egg. Female sperm swim very slow, but a long distance runner, can swim and swim and swim, and even reach the egg while the male too exhaust, unable to.

You need to write down the list of what you want for your renovation. That will be easy to compare.

Oh yes, very near, jsut across the street.

Hi PIGGY Oh is it? I stayed in blk25B. How about your cousin? Do hope to see your reno pics! Good luck and enjoy your renovation! Happy

Hello PIGGYBEAR I am staying in Jalan Membina, very near to you. Last time, stayed in blk 29. The layout is the same as you but without the utility room. Do post pic for us to see. Good luck! Happy

An old saying say: Hands-me-down will have the effect of calming down the babies and make the babies good and obedient and will not be that naughty. I am not sure how true is that but my 2nd and 3rd child all wear the first child clothing and also from my sis in law too. Save alot really!

I think nowadays dinner and dance should change to Dinner and Lucky draw.

My daughter in k2, monthly school fees $180. My son in primary school, monthly schhol fees $5.50. Sometimes, need to buy books and money for reces. And outing too, need to pay for it. And also extra lession in school, you need to give extra pocket money. Primary school daily pocket money $1.50. Extra lession another $2.50. All money lah...I lost count how much I already spend.
