I think my mom is super happy about me helping to clear her cabinets... So that she can buy more stuff. She actually has this machine that polishes or cleans or ionizes rice grains (sorry I still can't decipher what that machine does but mom swears that our rice which has been processed by it is the super best quality with great health properties ...)

Anyways just bought this:

i'm still searching for spoons, soup bowl & dessert plates.

It is very hard to get a full set but when you really get hold of it, wow the satisfaction is beyond description right?

2 VERY visible pipes in the common bathroom = super-duper freaking ugly!

To top it all, check out the 'crowning' glory of the middle pipe:

There are 3 of us at home so parents bought enough Dumex to exchange for this and some plates of assorted sizes. So now, we really do not need to buy any crockery

Is this the milk powder Dumex brand? Ha

Your mum's toy is VERY interesting!

boxing up the queen will be like creating a full-height boxy compartment in the toilet & taking up some space... must see the designing 功力 of ur ID/contractor liao...

This queen a bit hard to be boxed up! It is not just thick but wide-spreading like a tree or an upside-down octopus. It is like to do a vertical box-up and a false ceiling. That will make the common bathroom really puny. Thinking of leaving it open and follow what retch did - paint it black. But then it will look quite sci-fi, urghhhh!

Hmmm.....

You can paint it and try to re-purpose the area for something you need in the bathroom. The trunking can be the fixtures to hold some bathroom fittings? ;p
