True that...but not all can be in black and white.

Imagine, prior to start of certain works, we have to stop for abit and wait for the black and white to be drafted then both parties sign in agreement and so forth...too much paper and trees wasted leh. :(

hahaha...end of the day, trust, patience and understanding very important ingredients in reno! :)

Agree. Not everything can be stated in black and white. If there was an intention to cheat in the first place, so what if everything had already been stated in black and white? And yes, we are governed and maybe protected by the law but if there is any screw up arising from a transaction, there can only be one outcome-more resources will be expended in the process.

Trust and Understanding go hand in hand and I think biz people (contractors in this context) appreciate this relationship.

Cheers.

HDB Structural Eye-Sore

IMG_0171.jpg

See that TV point (apparently this airs malaysian and indonesian channels) between the wheel barrow and stacks of cement?

Well this apparently runs from top to bottom in my block and it was situated right in front of the main door. HDB could have designed it by putting it behind the door or closer to a pillar or what but nooo...the smart alec who built this decided to put right in front of the door. Is he trying to prove a point? Maybe back in the 80s, having a TV is a luxury and the first thing u want visitors to ur house to see when u open the door is the tv point.....and a tv cable running to ur TV? :dunno:

Not acceptable! :curse:

I asked Mr Yeak to remove that but he said cant coz otherwise, the flats above me cant view the channels. I was thinking who'd be viewing those channels but i decided to be a goody2 neighbour and not force the issue. Box it up then i told him. Can be done, thankfully. Phew! :sport-smiley-004:

Lets see what it looks like after the box up...:rolleyes:

Preparing the base for box up of ugly TV point
