  1. Hi, Yes its just one light. But its a downlight affixed on a false ceiling at the foyer. and its just one of its kind in the house. Can't test it out and taking it down will mean have to cut it out from the false ceiling...thats why I am in a dilema... Now really regret having done so much false ceiling at home
  2. sorry side track a bit...I got a pblm with my lights...think the ballast fused again for the 2nd time Actually when the first time they were fixing it up, the ballast fused then the light shop says this ballast shouldn't fused so easily...can last 10-20yrs one....says is the electrical guys fault...but they change a new ballast for me ultimately due to goodwill....now after few mths moving in....fused again.....what should i do leh ??? Should i take down the whole light bring back to the light shop or call my ID to get the electrical guys to come look at it.
  3. should also pity us who pays the extra $0.30
  4. Hey you still gotta buy the modem mah. unless they got promo give you free lor. And do check on the "activation fee" cos i got charged for that. I have been using their digital voice phone. no complains so far except that you gotta remember on and off the electricity when going out or coming back home after work. Else, its draining electricity if you on the modem 24x7.
  5. Why don't you go try and let us know....you gotta sponsor yourself for this trial thou !
  6. I think now after your marketing/publicity campaign for them, even if they put the towkay and friends's photos on their glass door to market themselves also no use liao lor...haha.. So many hair salons in tpy central..i think even every 2 months go cut once, only take one year to patronise all of them.....anyone got any recommendations which is good other than kimage??

It was first day of the lunar 7th month and my friends and I were going out for supper at 2.30am. For no reason the lift stopped at 16th flr At least now i am not afraid to go to 16th flr
  11. I think your new avatar more cute
  12. Did you send this to email: 75_bsec@pap.org.sg ? I wonder if he has anyone to screen this email queue and filter the messages...siGhz... I read again the mission statement of BTP TC [Our Mission Statement: "Our mission is to provide a clean, green, well maintained and healthy environment for the residents, through close co-operation with the residents, grassroots organisations and related government agencies."] Are they in line with their mission????
  13. Congrats you finally started your reno ! Best of luck and do flood them with your knowledge so they won't puray puray with you
  14. Hi Hana As per my hubby (a tpy kid) the mutton soup is the one at the basement foodcourt in HDB Hub. Taste still as nice Hey Jacky Its really nice to see the collated photos...really brings back the memories of my first MRT ride organised by my primary school when MRT was first launched, my first class outing to TPY KFC after we has our inter-school games in TPY sports complex....i believe the TPY Park is also a very famous place in TPY....most of our parents who took their wedding day photo at the Toa Payoh park (I see the same spot, same bridge, same pond...same banyang tree in my parents, my husband's parents, my classmates parents' wedding photos
  15. I got my racks from them as well. depending on the size and shape of your storeroom, they will measure your storeroom and will recommend to you what is suitable. Mine cost $180. two 5-tier side-by side rack. Hope it helps
  16. He didn't say how long or contract term...but only say it will increase your phone bill by $1++ per day cos they need to create / link your phone number to the CID number....so its machiam like a monthly subscription fee...if you interested in the brochure I can pass to you this evening Hey...thanks for the info. My husband not interested leh....he says the logo only attract more bees to eye on the unit...but of cos i think if there are elderly at home then its good lor cos one button can attract ambulance. Anyway i keep asking them who is the "they" who sent him here he just say is "they" so i guess the they is Tyco Sales Department lor hahaha
  17. Hey I got someone from tyco knocking on my door on Sat to ask me to install a "FOC", fully subsidised ADT alarm system...the mass installation is on Tue and Wed. Anyone signed up for it?? He claim "they send him here cos of the recent high crime rates in our neighbourhood". But I keep peeping at the invoices and found there are payment to be made. ard $40+ per month.
  18. Just some of my input, I do notice that the new neighbours who bought Tv, fridge, washing machines, fans, lights, etc etc just discard the boxes at the lift lobby. This is really serve as some "guidelines" to those who have evil intention that there items for them to prey on, on that floor. Hope these people will seriously do their fair share to bring those boxes downstairs to the disposal area. I mean the big rubbish collection area and not the small rubbish bin in front of the lift lobby. I think a gentle reminder to the delivery guys helps.
  19. My bill came. the amount water + electricity + gas told up to $100+...but i only gotta pay $50+. Same as last month...electricity alone already $70+ looks like I gotta switch on less lights
  20. The drop was cos of the rebate or was it a reduction as compared to the previous month bill?
  21. Hi Jacky Cos my ID ask me to use Tar pin to clean the paint stains, then we we went to the pain shop there are tar pin and Tina..dunno which to use lor...My metal gate also got paint splashes, which report to the building services centre, they claim they did the clean up...like real only...Dunno if I scrap will the paint on the gate drop or not. Carpentry pple told me before cannot use too many times to clean else will spoil the glossy laminate on carpentry also. SigHz Scrapper buy liao..but dun dare to use cos scare will scar the door...every scratch is every cent lost. motor lot - siGhz..this is the dunno how many complaints I receive from my guests who drive "Why HDB sunday no free parking de" "Why don't have floor level lifts de. i gotta carry my baby pram down the steps" "Why your block so stupid de...MSCP not linked to your block de" "Why the design so stupid de...gotta take 3 lifts before reaching your storey..why didn't you take block B,C,D instead" "Why I need to make so many rounds before I find one secluded corner to park my bike? Only ard 60++ lots in the whole MSCP???" Aiyo, when you hear so many "why....de" you also a bit sian right ?? Anyway just a word of advice to you guys who have guest who drive, you can advice them to park at blk 85's MSCP (sorry arh...selfish singaporean advice) cos your guest will have to walk a long way to put coupon if they intend to stay long at your flat for blk A and E residents...then somemore Sunday NO FREE PARKING...the other side is free...WHY LIKE THAT DE??? *btw i wrote to HDB to complain deck 2A, 3A, 4A are quite dark during day time cos we are quite blocked on both sides. If suay suay one day kenna robber dun know i can even see the robber's face or not.
  22. Hi, Any motorcyclist here who purchase season parking but encounter no parking lots?
  23. Jacky, like to check should I use "Thinner" - pronouce as "Tina" or "Turpentine" - pronouce as "Tar Pin" ??? I got paint stains on my bedroom door and metal gate Tks
  24. Wahha almost same as mine leh. bill comes up to $150+ leh for last month - TV about 4-5 hours per day - Starhub digital setup box on 24hrs everyday - Digital Voice Modem on 24hrs everyday - 1 tower fan on for ard 4 -5 hours - 1 wall fan on for ard 8hrs everyday - washing machine every alternate day - fridge (2 tick for energy saving) 24hrs everyday - storage heater about 20 mins per day - Water dispenser on 24hrs everyday - sometimes forgot to off my foyer light (the ultimate was 10hrs for 1 of the night) We were so suprised when we saw the giro deduction amount. How could we have consumed so much water and electricity
  25. I suggest you don't leave the key with them. get a cheap padlock and pass them the key. you don't want your keys to be duplicated by evil minded pple. Well unless you intend to change the gate and main door lock. Usually, (at least for my case) they took a few trips to rectify the different kind of defects Hope it helps
