ivy 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2009 I very kay poh... will pop by your place later......... when I go over to mine to see the feature wall......... Oh.. thanks for the 'strrong' pair of eyes.. my box up wall very slanted........ but Uncle said due to the original wall. It is like that. I agree... old houses like ours wall slanted. This also happen to one of my rooms. sure sure, but not sure got things to see yet. If you are going you gotta take the 2nd single lift right up to level 6, turn right, use the central staircase to go down 2 levels. Cos they are doing up the lift now so a bit inconvenient. ohhh ok ok in that case no choice but to accept the wall. ahahahaha i hope i wont hear him saying the word tok to me. got more pics on your reno? wonder how uncle is coping. just realised one of my friend called for kitchen quote. and 1 of my neighbor is discussing replacing their windows for bath/WC and if price is right might even do the toilets. so exciting! I'll pop by during lunch time later to see how is the progress of the tiling. Don't think much can be accomplished in half a morning. if got progress will take pics to show. This morning on my way out of the carpark, I spyed uncle's green van coming into the carpark again!! Saw that he brought another uncle, think maybe the tiling supervisor or what. I think uncle very "heng" lor, whenever come to my carpark always kanna caught by me. hahahhaha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aubrey 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2009 hahaha i think like that uncle cannot escape me much! my unit is just next to the rented one! unless he crawls to get to my place else its quite impossible. i feel like doing the same, rushing over from tanjong pagar (office) to home (bugis, waterloo st) just to have a look during lunch. so exciting! and i dunno how u guys do it, manage to go on RT, take care of reno, take care of family and still do housework. as it is, just managing reno and housework is killing me, sometimes so lazy to go on RT.

growler 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2009 ivy: Think Uncle went to my place first before he went to yours. My hacking starts today and he was here with 3 workers (2 indian + 1 malay) at 9am sharp. He left at around 10. As my area is very near yours, likely he popped there after he finished giving all the instructions. Will post the pictures of day 1, including Uncle @ work on my blog soon Now's half-time break and the workers went for lunch. Hopefully they can finish all the hacking by today !
