kids rolling over bed = give more children. Kids bursting covering of potty bowl = .... i don't want to know...

think happy thoughts, think happy thoughts!

what's that part about getting some kid to jump on it?

i was idly googling blum drawers just now and came across a blog on blogspot. The little girl in the banner looked sooooo familiar... eh fannie, you're maintaining *2* blogs? wah, you very energetic leh =p

rierie, the two of u can compromise bah? My mum uses her own special mixture whenever she mops our flooring. Normal magiclean with one cup of dettol inside! Tested and proven!

I'm so happy that for me both sets of parents not so superstitous. They probably don't even know what's "an chuang". Heng ah. =p booy, you sure it's *just* the bed that's tempting you guys?

Ah Soon call him "Fei Zi". Plump plump, medium to dark skin, friendly and no specs. I don't know if he's the one joseph called to come my place lah (but should be since he's the one who do up the wiring before the L-boxes went up) but i'm just gonna shoot anyone who had an electrician turn up at their place in the afternoon for wiring works good, ivy and bodo seems to be off the "hitlist" =p

really sianz 1/2. Left my workplace in tuas today to go all the way to TPY. Abit excited, abit apprehensive (mbr light a little bit challenging cause 1. got oover 30 little different sized crystal balls to hang, 2. I ask for weird orientation for the square light which i'm not sure if my electrician can handle) but guess what happened? No prizes cz it's something that happens with every other reno item so far >_<". Not a single ghost in sight. Padlock on my door not even touched since sunday night. Sianz, so called joseph. He tells me Uncle last minute pull my electrician away to finish up at someone else's house so that can HO fast. Ok, whoever who stole my electrician better own up now. Then had to go meet my wife for dinner before returning to my parents' place for the night. Tuas -> TPY -> redhill -> CCK in the space of 4 hours for no good reason is not funny lor... ...

same as above lor. My place is stalled at the plastering finished and painting finished stage. Today install lights, tommorrow clean-up, day after that 2nd trip install aircon, and then wait for carpentry le. But still got things that need touch-ups lah. like my grouting, some places at my hacked walls not plastered properly etc.

the boy's wardrobe looks very unique with that laminate! nice!

huh? why cannot sleep on it?

no problem, i'm keeping an eye out for it too =p Heh, just now accidentally pressed joseph's number by mistake. so just asked him by the way if the electrician is at my house already. He told me only coming in the afternoon. >_<". Aiyo, i hope he can finish the work leh. I don't want to end up force him to do overtime... My MBR light looks very difficult to set up lor. Plus i think the orientation i want it in also very challenging...

concealed wiring is great when you're the one doing the planning for the wiring. it's a bl**dy pain in the a** rewiring concealed wiring done by someone else... >_<". Do you know i have no choice but to go to my main door in order to switch on my dining lights?? And i can't switch off my entrance lights from my living room, have to go all the way to the main door to do it.... >_<". Plus there's no way i can check which switch is connected to which socket without using a test pen... But my own fault lah, for wanting my lighting layout to be so diff from the hdb given 1 >_<

Congratulationz!!

don't need to understand too much. Just get what info you need and ignore the testosteron and estrogen flying around the thread =p And yes, welcome to the reno journey!

gotit. thanks for the help blackcar and bigcat!

Nope. =( Joseph say will do that some time later. He's gonna redo and try for chocolate colour. I'm not sure how it's gonna turn out but just see lor. In the meantime, every occasion i meet uncle or joseph i will always bring up the grout lines so that they cannot forget it =p @booy & poseiden_gal: haha. p_g you're right, it's darker than expected, but i still like it! Not really hello kitty land lah, but white with a tinge of passion in it. for mbr, i like... =p. Not dark enough for you ah, booy? You're looking for blood red liao lah haha =p Hopefully, tommorrow can post lighting photos le. Keep my fingers crossed that my electrician can do everything the way i want it even if i'm not there to supervise.... >_<"

Haiz, i realised that most of these megastore salesmen really poor product knowledge one leh. Both Courts and HN. Today checked both stores out for plasma TV. Asked them what difference there was between the Panasonic G11 and S10 and the courts one said DVB-tuner, the HN one say one full HD the other HD ready. WTF lor. 1 give me the least impt diff, the other totally sa lah. Lucky i already did my homework off HWZ forum and panasonic website and actually know the answer le. (G11 got neopdp panel. Higher tech to give it better brightness at lower electricity cost. Also have some image tuning functions which all the other panasonic plasma tvs don't have) I just want to see if they can justify to me the price difference within their own store. that's why i'm thankful for the existence of the internet, RT and HWZ. Don't know how my parents survived back then =p I know what you mean abt feel like not keeping your word to your kids f4. Don't worry, explain to them nicely about the bad uncles in HN and they will forgive you one =)

Haiz, told the wife abt guy77's open house and was hoping to psycho her to go but end up we spent the whole weekend at our place pasting up instructions all around the house. Cz monday the electrician coming to install the house and both of us can't be there. Have to tell him light placement, and control arrangement. Somemore got additional stuff like shifting power points etc for him to do somemore... >_< I hate HDB and their concealed wiring.... Really glad that your reno seems to be ending (or is it ended le) =) Btw guy77, i noticed you were talking about samsung washing machine WA95VP in an earlier post. I'm looking at that one too. Did you get it in the end?

hey hey hey. *that's* nearly exactly what i told Ah Soon to do for my kitchen sliding door! Except for the box up. I think it's a good idea but why do for only a section of the tracks only? Why not do the whole length? Will share the picture with my wife and see if she likes the idea.

Ahh. So i have to plug it in to a normal power socket (and then hit the power socket switch to on it) or run an electrical wire from a switch to it? That's what is was asking. Reading your post it seems you mean the latter but better clarify instead of assume =p

haha. last nite kena alot of pm mah. now should have slots le =p

if you still want to know, pm me =p

Thank you for taking the trouble of diggin up and posting that jaskel. See people, this is what creatures under the bridge do for kicks. For getting my goat and making me act really gullible for the first time in years, kudos to y'all.

I think i better stay away from you two $$ facer le. very soon the two of u going to upgrade and start charging us for conversation with u le. Like a shrink! =p
