Was grinning from cheek to cheek just now but now scratching my head! There was supposed to be pops of green in our master bedroom BUT green doesn't seem to go well with pink?

  • Was browsing through the forum and realized there are many many many 3-roomers here. Can't help to think that 3-rooms are 'in the trend' now. Though the layout for the different 3 room configuration

Thanks for the encouragement...we can't really heave in total relief till we hold the physical keys in our hands on 24 April!

When is your TOP? How long would the delay be? I think the new BTOs are around Boon Lay or Seng Kang area. If Boon Lay, it is rather close to where we currently stay now!

congrats! i see that you have confirmed alan as the contractor!

We took the plunge today by confirming Alan as our contractor! It was indeed a BIG leap of faith due to the recent drama staged by our sellers. Well, we can't confirm all these until after the 2nd appointment. Our current rental cannot be extended any more.

Anyways, we took Alan's advice and visited Poh Seng to look at kitchen sinks. We have earlier shortlisted Blanco silgranite sink and we can only choose a certain design due to the kitchen tap we bought from Amazon. Alan advised us to save money (thumbs up for him since he knows of our tight budget) and choose other brands whose composite granite is of similar quality. And so we found our cheaper alternative to Blanco, unless we can source successfully for our 1st choice: copper sink but that is incredibly hard.

We also made another key decision today. We will stop sourcing for basin & WC on TB. At Poh Seng, we were given a crash course on our local sanitary fittings which is quite different from china measurements. So with sadness, we say bye to our original wish of brightly colored sanitary wares and settle for pastel-colored ones available here :o

And to celebrate this 'milestone', we bought this:

Thanks to Mangoo who first bought this & Bleucheeze for 'hunting' the last ones in Singapore. We bought the last green unit, possibly in Singapore LOL...

CONGRATS! Told u Alan is good and will advise us to save money. He nagged at me a few times for wanting to change/add this and that :P Who served you at poh seng huh? Why nobody give me a crash course on anything. hurhur. I'm amazed Mr E actually agreed to the floral bedsheet. :good::jammin:

Poh Seng was Mr Seng as recommended by Alan but they seemed so short-handed. Spoke to the lady (maybe she is Celina) who told us the difference between Singapore & China sanitary dimensions. Both kept asking why we want those old-fashioned color sanitary wares.

Then we went next door to GR which I read good reviews about them. Met Benny whose service was awesome and his Baron color sanitary stuff is more suitable for us so think we will buy kitchen from Poh Seng & toilet wares from GR.
