Wow ... totally no space.

I think you shoudl ask Edmund to custom-made for you a knife tray. Should be quite cheap <$50 and you get the exact size for all your knives (add scissor and some other stuff also)

last nite, went A lightings to let them check on 2 lights which my electrician said was faulty...end up it was cos uncle electrician did not push the bulb in enough.... :( told Edmund and he was very sorry that we had to run the trip for nothing. but ok lah since i had to get the T5 lights anyway and we learnt what to expect in future when we change the bulb ourselves. hahaha

on the way to my new home to put the lights, Edmund sms me " Are you going up tonite? I've a surprise for you."

It got us very excited and we started guessing what could the surprise be....when we reached, we were very surprise to see the door open and the lights on...what greeted us when we walked in was...........................
