hahaha me too but i bought them drinks~ hahaha~

No doubt I am a 'bad' & fussy customer, but I am a very nice house owner! I buy the workers lunch everyday! Even I can't make it back on time, I will ask one tiler to pay for the lunch & claim from me.

Then, on Xmas eve, I ordered Pizza delivery for the workers as I had lunch treat with my colleagues.

I even buy boxes of chocolates for all workers including the tiler Boss. So, until now, you visit my blog & understand why the tilers are willing to redo the groutings so many round, and the boss even came personally last Saturday!

My hubby gave everyone 'Ang Bao' cos it was CNY period when they started work... Henry even asked 'How come, wo mei you?' Wah lau...earned so much our money...of cse don't have lah... Strictly for workers...

Buy some for me too?? I sick at home and cannot go out buy food.

Went up to our unit in the afternoon, there is 1 worker doing work in the MBR toilet... I quickly take this chance use the "Kung-Fu" I learn from Sisters here (no la Not Deh La, I Man how to Deh him ??).... I ask him whether he want coffee or tea ??

and I went to nearby coffeeshop "ta pao" kopi and char siew bao for him

here's the result

We choosed these rustic tiles and earth tone tiles, the rustic tiles are smooth to the touch while the earth tone tiles have rough surface finished....

won't know the end result until shower area, basin n WC in place... hope it'll turn out to be nice

earth tone rough surface tiles on the wall with ventilation windows :

also on the opposite wall of those rustic tiles , dunno what are those "post it" notes for

Sorry for the poor picture quality as they were taken at night and without strong flashlight with my BB

i think that's to create a very thin but even separation between any 2 tiles.

The Chinese tiler who was working on the kitchen and living room wall and floor tiles used it... think it was better... than the msia tiler who did my bathroom...

i read from another t-blog... if gaps between tiles too thin, sometimes the tiles won't seem leveled/smooth. need some gaps in between them so that leveling is better and the "cutting" feeling on the feet will be less obvious. so i guess it takes good skills to know how thin the gap can go
