roseberry 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2008 hihi shutiao! wow...the progress looks good. so nice to have things started. mine still stuck. this servicing centre is really inefficient. they hack of the parquet 3 weeks ago and have yet to start working on the new ones. you doing a walk-in wardrobe with the space after hacking off the wall? We initially intended to hack off the wall but didn't go ahead with it eventually cos afraid of future complications if we wanna sell the house next time.
