haha...me at anchorvale, froggy at fernvale. there are more like Professor, 15may etc. If u like peace n quiet then it's the correct place to be lor. I lived here for the past 8 years and I like the quiet surrounding, jus that I had to get used of having lessor neighbourhood shops as compared to my mum's place at Yishun.

welcome fellow sengkangers! wish u a shun shun reno!

hv u checked contat, yontat and door plus?

by the time u get a corner flat, u will still need grilles for ur kids....

welcome welcome. hope u like sengkang!

i prefer neither. I will opt to go online streaming to get my movies. u watch what u wan at your own time! for us, we are likely to get the discovery channel, playhouse disney channel (my son lor!) and AXN and if I can AFC! is going to convince hubby AFC is a better choice than taiwanese variety since we can catch those at his mum's place. wahahaha~

woah, another new sengkanger! welcome! which part of sengkang?

thanks babe!

thanks, lilith...haha... i thought better list it down in one post still so in case anyone ask, they can jus drop by that post to take a look. Also as a reminder to myself of what is pending still. Lilith, got to ask u something. I rmb last time u were intending to upholster ur sofa and sis New recommended u a Malay upholster. how are his charges? I have an exisiting wooden bedframe which I am now worrying that it might not fit into my decor and is seriously considering to upholster as the bed is still pretty solid. but if cost is alot then I may get a cheap bedframe from Hommage instead.

would it be expensive to upholster? I have a exisiting bedframe which I now worry will not match with my decor. I am thinking to upholster it but if too expensive, I might as well buy a new frame....

Went to check on the starhub cable tv packages and realised AFC is within one of the basic groups... shall agressively try to convince hubby to let me choose AFC as one of the basic group cos we might likely get starhub's Home hubbing pack which includes 4 basic group channels together with the broadband and Digital voice. Ooohh, soon I may be able to join u gals in drooling at great food and good looking chefs!

Thanks yuene! DAY 8-TILING CONTINUE today went up my place late afternoon. not sure if the tiler had worked today but noted new progress. The pebblewash in the living room to cover the crack floor is done! drop down kerb at common toilet is done and waiting for tiling to commence. for study and son's room, half the room are done. am pleased with what I saw but cos we went down late and was raining, so the house was too dark for us to take pics with our iphones. shall go back and take pic and load on another day. on a separate note, got my shoe cabinet and wardrobe for study room from Hommage liao. happen to see a sample of my dining set which Eric brought in as display. LOVE IT~!

I went compass point. but hor shd be all sea horse having this promo leh. u go c lah, but hor they max max max hold for u exactly 2 months only. nothing more! so do not attempt to book ur sofa if u cannot meet the required delivery date.

El: Thank you. hope it will turn out to be as nice as yours. infinite: wah, u faced the same prob as I for key collection. these ppl think others have all the time in the world to wait for their orders....machiam we owe them one. too bad ur situation is diff from us or u can give a ultimum like me... too bad then...was hoping we can finish together...but nvm so long swee swee that's the most impt rite?

El:omg, u jus had to find something to find fault with yishun right? pinktini:hahaha, i no gaming rm only study rm. gaming is restricted to PC games in study and Wii in Living room. when majong session is up, study rm is out of bounds as well england:ok lor, i look forward to seeing the completed project lor. for me, ya, reno in progress. now at tiling stage. i'm posting pics up on daily basis unless otherwise. feel free to check it out. sorry, i dun crazy over world cup....i support whichever team my hubby buys to win...

wahahaha...glad i helped u get a good discount then! same heater we hv! btw, hollow tiles is caused by bad workmanship. this is impt, when ur tiles are all done. take a stick or something to tap on every tile to make sure it does not sound hollow. hollow ones must get ID to redo for u.
