  1. wow, your house is still in good condition... and is that marble floor i see? looks good!
  2. wah many big rats hahahahaha yea should be doing things like cookies in future... hubby complained that cheesecake troublesome to bring to office so dun want wor.....
  3. i feel for you, bro... it's quite obvious that this narrow cabinet won't be able to fit in an LPG cylinder. how can they still insist that it's possible? don't they have dimensions on the drawings?
  4. hahahaha... good cost saving indeed~ just like why i ended up buying the portable induction cooker... can by 10~15 sets of the build-in ones!
  5. oh... okie la... everything no matter how good, sure there will be some missed cases...... not perfect all the time.... reminds me of your Cellini incident hahahahaha
  6. like what forgotten says, if you are staying in the HDB yourself, no problem for you to have your aunt/uncle staying with you... cannot let own relatives stay in your own house mah....??
  7. that's very good info... can share what should the honey/borax ratio be?
  8. bro, you can come my house to eat, still got a bit left but i think i won't make cakes in near future... cos hubby said "can you make some other things and not cheesecake?"..........
  9. yea and i really hate the traffic jam that comes with the heavy rain during evening rush hour....
  10. aiyo haha... cos nothing much going on mah~ sorry can't advise you cos i used contractor and no drawings de~ haha
  11. i think his unit is at corridor and (going to be) near the lift.... so need grilles de....
  12. anyway, thanks for sharing about tap cleaning... else i won't be inspired to read up hahahaha
  13. paiseh no particular link... i went to read on chrome cleaning in those home maintenance sites, where they say specifically no abrasive cleaner should be used for chrome surface etc. then i look at the individual cleaners and sieve out which are the abrasive type of cleaner... hahahaha... that's why i also stopped using cif for taps after reading~ (cif is cream abrasive cleaner, guess something like facial scrub for ladies hahahaha) i think glass more sturdy... should be okie ba? like cif can be used for ceramic sink but not chrome... (now i know why my parents'old taps were grey cos my mom simply LOVES cif ) now i also get lazier liao... just use water and sponge... my cleaning stuff all stored in kitchen so a bit far (and lazy) to bring all the way to MBR toilet..........
  14. hey bro, wanna share something about cleaning taps and toilet accessories with those magic cleaning sponge. i'm another one who likes shiny taps so went to do some reading up after seeing your post here this kind of melamine cleaning sponge, being a form of abrasive cleaner, is not good for chrome taps and accessories in long run as it will damage the chrome surface and the taps will turn grey as time goes by... unless you are prepared to change taps when it turns grey la~ chrome surface should be cleaned by water (maybe with some mild cleaner too) and normal sponge or cloth. it does take more effort to make it shiny though... i saw some toilet cleaners that can be used on chrome surface in NTUC but yet to buy one to try~ anyway, just fyi ya~
  15. wah so many pple are coming ah~ yea surely.... get prepared for "rainy days"~ talking about (real) rain, now my side is really raining heavily nia.... sian
  16. wah, now that they redraw the boundary (well, as usual..) you must be feeling very cheated... according to my colleague who stays in Toh Guan, the rubbish disposal charges are higher compared to Jurong and Clementi though, due to the different contractor used (discovered this when we talking about utility bills)~ but the difference is like $3~5 la, not $8
  17. i do know pple who rent out whole flat legally. yet to personally know anyone that does so illegally... LOL hmmmm how about for cases where the owner doesn't stay in the HDB anymore, but let his friend stay there FOC? yea... such is life...
  18. yea i know that's what he meant... but would like like to re-iterate the potential mess involved LOL
  19. huh! and i must say, the part of Jurong under Holland-Bukit Panjang Town Council is much cleaner - you can check out the difference between Blk 101 and 201, equally old flats just a street away! this is what i observed when i went flat hunting.... and we are paying more for SC & C for a dirtier estate? i didn't know the Holland-Bukit Panjang Town Council side is cheaper so didn't think much about it last time NSP already announced that they will field a team at Jurong GRC~
  20. i heard the fish soup stall at the Blk 347 market is not bad (same side as the bak kut teh), but dunno whether got bittergourd or not cos never tried personally~ it's the big market at Street 51/52
  21. i thought a lot of forumers using Baron... mine is Baron too... not good mah?
  22. the rental range is $2.5~2.7k as stated in the article... yea surely there are pple who only think about making money and ignore all rules and regulation~ i hope more of such pple get caught~
  23. my window contractor also same price for all... alu or white powder coated same price de~ oh i'm refering to the windows itself, not the grilles... changing windows require hacking so you can't really do it when you stay there... the wall will be gone also so need to do plastering and re-paint...
