zerochristy 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2009 Guy77> Ya its nice… even it do look simple but it it simple with something “classy” as you mention Pinkpetter> Entertaining item.. plants also entertaining mah… haha while you do “business” you can look at it. I was actually looking at round glass bowl I can put charcoal in it than I will add fake orchid. Posidon_gal> Ya its quite a lot of money to us. We also “neow” too… than now everything need money hor I will not pay this amount. I wrote an email and call uncle that the VO price will be paid only we came to agreement to pay a “certain” amount. Hahah we did not ask Uncle at all the price... cause we pretend that he will do it for us FOC so we told him that he did not pre-imform us the price so we cannot agree to the price he quote at all. For those he got tell us price we will pay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wah I tell you something which make me mad this morning. Opp. my house got a kid going to school today at 6.55am than he press my house door bell. I open the door and saw the boy waiting for the lift... as for the grandma stand at the gate. I ask whats the matter.. then the boy did not answer than the grandma smile. I ask the grandma directly what the matter Than she say "oh your doorbell very big so he press lor" I reply "If nothing dun anyhow press the door bell " Than I close the door... and carry on my bfast. Now I was wondering if I should take out the battery or put something on the doorbell penal so once someone touch it will get elect shock Wah I really got mad till want to tell aunty if she like me to press her doorbell at 3am in the morning Edited June 29, 2009 by zerochristy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I forsee u will get kids like this pressing your doorbell for fun leh... Ya I also thinking of taking out the doorbell battery liao. I am ok w/o the doorbell... if I expect someone to come sure they will call me first what. Think tonight I will got home and take out the battery myself. Else put cctv actually we have been think about it but hubby put down the idea. This family take things for granted.. they use the common area to store some of their things. Than the town council come and check one day issue a letter to the 4 units on the floor to ask to remove the barang within 3 days upon received of the letter. Some of the item also belong to a indian family beside me. But till now no action have been done. Hope one day town council come and fine them I told my hubby not to open the door wide... have to close the door I dun like pple kaypo and peek into my house.

rierie 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2009 book cabinet – second you thoughts about Ikea. For us, we custom made ours. Mainly because htb say he wants the cabinet to go all the way to ceiling..less maintenance work for him (no dust on the top and he can guarantee no xiaoqiang and lizard can hide there). And we want sliding door for the cabinet. We went to source for the cabinets with these requirements and realize that actually the price is about the same. Door bell – where got this kind of aunty one??? Must at least apologize mah! One way to prevent this from happening again might be to make your door bell higher? Make it out of reach for that kid.

No la we will not buy from Ikea.. it will not last. We dun intend to make bookcase so next time I still can shift the bookcase to one of the room and convert the study room to another kid's room. As for Door Bell, did not even apologize I dun really like the aunty lucky she is not my MIL Anyway make less contact with the family is the best.. dun smile la. Hahaha They last time even put their plants at my gate area and I told my hubby to tell them to get it out of out area.

Marcussy 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2009 Wa looks like you are not having a good time with the neighbours...but I will suggest that you try your best to still be on cordial terms with them. You don't know what pattern then will try next time. Some people may be pissed by you not smiling at them also. Although ultimately you stay in your flat, you are also buying the surroundings. Just like marriage is not just the couple's problem, but will still involve the families. Hope u can resolve things with them soon. And more pics! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
