the solid top u memtioning isit those corian top, granite top n etc for kitchen? i will suggest that u get it if can...same points as what F4 mentioned....

n in the event u staying more than 5 years?? too late to get it done up again?

yea, there was a post asking about changing the top... I don't know if I should do it later but think will already spoil the wood le...

-------------------

anyways, remember the ugly gas pipe, was given the suggestion to cover gas pipe by using light holder along 1 side of the living area instead of cornices

additional cost of around 5-600 (before less cost of 2 basic lights $60x2 which is initial plan)

hmmmm... cost cost cost... headache lar...
