  7. I agree going with tour agencies are not very enjoyable. Have to wait for everyone, when people are late, the schedule is screwed. My husband and I did a comparison after collecting itineraries from various tour agencies when we planned a trip to Melbourne. Although they say "7D/5N" etc kind of crap, in reality, if you look at the itinerary carefully, one or 2 days are F&E, then another day they term it as "OPTIONAL TOUR" which obviously means u need to top up. In the end we went free and easy, book air tickets and servicedapartment, when we landed in Melbourne then we booked day tours that appeal to us (can mix and match as u like). We really enjoyed ourselves. When we went to bangkok, it was mostly F&E, with "half day free city tour". Like ****, after we went to visit one temple, ask us to see gems, When we refused, the local thai chinese tour guide gave us a threatening attitude that we just gave him like $20 to shut him up. Never go for "free half day/one day city tour" if it comes with your F&E package. It is a lesson we learned. On the other hand, the half day city tour we took in Melbourne was ok, at least didn't try to trick tourists. We got to understand a city a bit more and felt more confident to re-visit the places we passed by a bit rushedly during the half day tour. Total spendings on F&E experience in Melbourne? Cheaper than if we went with tour agency... and we stayed longer too with that amount of money, plus we ate at restaurants more than half the time anyway, and you get to choose what you want to eat (I didn't visit a foreign land to go and eat chinese food, so thse tour agencies advertised chinese meals actually put me off)
  8. Wow if you are the kind that turn on aircon often, 70+ is really good. for me, we switch off all applicances from the electrical socket, but din unplug. turn on air con only once in a while (like once or twice a week for a few hours). when air con not in use, switch off from compressor side. No tv... 2 lap tops and 1 computer, my husband, me + our tenant PUB bill abt 50+ a month..we cook a few times a week (i.e. not everyday)... daytime all working, no one home. 4 room flat
  9. yup i experienced his before last yea. I'm same block as u (27B)
  10. it's a good shop. we got out bedroom stuff from there (bed+side table+dressing table+chair) good service. wehn they first delivered and we weren't satisfied with the quality, they took it back and gave us another set promptly. have been using the furniture for one year plus... so far so good.
  11. mine is $57. N air con, no TV. actually occassional air con (1-2 times a month) 2 people staying. Washing machine, 3 times fortnightly. evertyhing switched off at the mains when not in use. (habit)

  13. haa.. i once saw a lady driver drive down the entire carpark floor, only to decide she wanted a lot all the way back, so she reversed ALL THE WAY BACK at top speed... siao
  14. maybe work? my hubby works in the construction line and he also gets calls at all hours of the day!
  15. when the resale prices go up, the new HDB prices also go up... read the news... it's pretty obvious there is no such thing as welfare or free lunch in this country
