For those that have finished renovation but yet shifted in, pls be careful. My neighbour's flat was broken into, the thief cut off the bicycle chain lock at the gate, and stolen their appliances which they newly bought. He advised me to lock both the gate and door as well instead just using the bicycle chain when reno is completed.

According to the NPP, this is not the only case of break-in in 79. Hmm.. staying beside the NPP may not be that safe too... talk about security, heard some of you getting castle lock? Is it more secured and how much?

- dat is y, new items shd not b brought in2 e unit too early.

- best is near or after handover. Except those necessary items which wil speed up e whole reno process.

- if gota bring in e new items early, then gota plan properly where 2 temp. store them.

- eg. is 2 hav a room solely for new purchase items. Lock e rm at all times.

- best is arrange a delivery day wen no sub-con is working. Nobody noes abt e items in e rm except owner, ID & deliveryman.

- lock e bedrm of new purchased items with e installed lockset.

- lock e metal gate with thick chain with lock if stil got some outstanding works.

- if not, makeuse of watever lockset 1 can use, metal gate, main door, bedroom door + chainlock/padlock at metal gate.

- Castle, Yale, Duro etc r some of e better known brands of locks which hav a high security rating for locks.

- it pays to buy a lock which is more expensive.

- do u wana spend slightly more now or loose even more later? :wacko:

e above is my personal views, it stil gota depends on 1self.

;)

Gossip of e day

- Dog outing? :huh:

- mayb can organiz a 'doggy beauty pageant', dress up e doggy in bikini etc :notti:

- so many dog owners & luvers in 79, y dun some1 b e chairperson, organise 1 lah. :P

Neighbourhood

- paint shop dnstairs got sell ICI & Nippon paint.

- for those neighbours who wana touch-up e paintworks in ur nice hm, can try getting frm them. Friendly uncle, reasonable price. :yeah:

- 2 massage & foot reflexology parlours had somehow invaded in2 e 79 neighbourhood.

- 1 is beside e small ID firm, 1 is beside foodpark.

- 'special service' anot, i dun noe. Those who had tried, mayb can update. :notti:

- peak hrs, driveway beside foodpark, illegal parking had resumed again. :angry:

My unit

- my unit got a crackline in 1 of e walls, frm floor 2 ceiling. It was not there during day 1.

- its not hairline crack, its those ugly snake look-alike 1-2mm crack.

- if i had done my reno, most likely my contractor wld b e scapegoat.

- gota ask hdb Building Services Centre 2 rectify ASAP. :(

:rolleyes:

Just a note on the Starhub activation (only for those who missed the activation period in Blk B; probably only me :( ). StarHub has assured that as long as you are going to sign up with them, the signal activation fee will be waived (which makes cents to me).

I know a friend who imports his own brand and is marketing it himself. I'm not very sure about the brand though. If you are interested, PM me. I can pass his contact to you.
