ivy 0 Report post Posted April 7, 2009 hi Ivy, Can ah soon speak english or he can only speak and quote in chinese? was going to get his quote but he seems too busy and may not understand english much from the bits i gathered here.... he can't speak english. he will write down the quote in chinese and if u can't read chinese he will get his son to type the quote out in english. however, the son seems to make alot of mistake in the english quote. My shoe cabinet become study cabinet haha. but he will keep his chinese quote as reference. you speak mandarin? if not, then if u need help to communicate with uncle ah soon to obtain the quote maybe we can help? Uncle ah soon very nice, so I dun mind helping if u need assistance. the worrying part is when reno start then u will have to communicate with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ivy 0 Report post Posted April 7, 2009 cooolll!! twin brothers! I cannot imagine having another person that looks exactly the same as my hub. hahah! sorry to disappoint u but they look the least bit alike. They are faternal twins. Even if they are standing side by side, you won't even guess that they are blood brothers, let alone twins. hahahaha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ivy 0 Report post Posted April 7, 2009 Just saw this too! That's so cool!! They dun look alike but do they behave alike? haha I think twins are interesting.. mm in some ways they do behave alike. e.g both dun like to iron their clothes before they put them on and when u ask them they will give u similar reply : "after u wear it, it will straighten on its own!" exact same answer hor! both are thrifty and very cost conscious etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
