i guess regarding the an shen part the best is check with both sets of parents and see what's their thought. I believe different folks have different practice. just like the "an chuang" process, most crucial is the elderly folks at home won't get upset over what the youngsters are doing.

really paint alone ahhh? very tiring de leh. gather a few friends to help u lah.

merryman,

guess it depends on luck lor, my colleague brought his aircon from courts, he says 3hrs everything finished, no problem.

my aircon installation ard 4hr, from 9.30pm - 1.30pm, somemore i waited for a month before they came to install cos they say saturaday installation need to wait one mth while my friend waited ard 2 weeks nia.

i do agree with ivy. old folks have thier belief in doing certain things especially they view such things as the most impt for a house.

as for painting...u wana try the paint? can ask BD if he is keen to try paints and get him to help u!

Hi Cannotist

reading your t-blog brings back a lot of memories cos i had stayed there (@ Blk 7 - the 1-room flat) for 22 years b4 shifting to Woodlands. Nice quiet place, tho' not very accessible lah. Ur block is nearer to St. Theresa's Convent right cos i saw that in your pic.

Edit: When I was staying there, there were not many buses going there but not sure how's the situation like. But i remembered taking bus 195 at the bus-stop near Radin Mas CC to Tiong Bahru MRT Station.
