Far Far Away........@ The West Of Singapore Ah!

Recommended Posts

Hi peeps...........thank you for all your kind support and comments that my reno is going Fast and Furious :P

Unfortunately...........my renovation has met with a speed bump......... :P

Seems there is some misunderstanding between my ID and my carpenter............a classic case of i think, you thought, nobody confirm.........den both also execute order........den both order sala........den point finger at each other.............. :curse:

Luckily the carpenter as you all know is on my relative-in-law, so i talk to him and found out what is going on and thankfully things is moving again..........

Right am still left with some minor carpentry work, touchup of painting den can do Chemical Wash liao :P YEAH!:P!!

Settled my curtains @ Jimmy Textiles and i guess that's it............once carpentry is done...........time to call in the furniture, appliances, curtains..............and TADA!:)!:jawdrop:!:jawdrop:!:jawdrop:!:)

Stay tuned for more pictures.............ya ya i know i long time never put liao heehee :)

Yesterday was my lights installation by myself and my dad..........unfortunately........we managed to only install 7 out of the 13.

The drilling part was super crazy..........because we had a underpowered drill :dunno: Broke 2 drill bits den in the end fed up and bought 5 extra ones. what to do wor? 8|

The most siong on is the Living Room and Dining Room lights as they were pretty heavy the the screws the gave us was not long enuff :bangwall:!! :(

End up had to improvise........den we only had 1 ladder thus had a super hard time wiring the lighting up and screwing it in as it was very heavy..

Luckly, subsequent one was pretty light thus was able to leave it hanging by 1 screw which we wire up and screw the rest in.

But once the lights it up..........wah.............very very nice...........can help but feel proud............or maybe because i had a very siong day of installtion heehee :bangwall:

Delivery was really good........the delivery guy gladly opened up every single light to check for damages and no problems at all........except..........i forgot about the outstanding and had to rush home to get my cheque book :(

haha but the guy was alright and waited for me downstairs while i collected by cheque book.

But yesterday when i was installing the lights, got 2 aunties just walk into my hall without asking and take a look and went out..........!@#$% wah lao think i transparent isit? So Rude!:bangwall: :bangwall:

I think i better @ least close my metal gate liao..........

haha!:unsure: so it was you he was referring to.

So your lighting you ask your eletrician to install? Cause when i install myself...........trust me.........i would gladly pay the money to get others to install for me :P

Error wise there is nothing much except 1 of the bulbs blown when i switch on and the glass edges was a bit rough around the edges........but they are minor and no point going back to DK lighting for it.....jurong to geylang quite far also leh heehee

Reno not yet finish but nearing the end stage liao.........:notti:
