reizzz 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2010 the ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh part is for ur wifey to do. the hubby normal reaction will be to start shooting away with his iphone or camera while the wifey is still busy with the ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-ing....lol i think so. like the pebblewash, when my wife saw it she was like wahhhhhhhhhhhh for quite long. and she stood there and admire for like 10 minutes. hahah... but it is super fun to go up and see that there is something new about the house! hee... he initially told me solid table top will be up only end of this week...but... he got it up on tuesday! heeee..... good. like that then the handover date might be earlier also. hahaha Or like when you have a walk-in Heineken beer fridge lor! Then you can also go AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH hahahahhaha Come to think of it, maybe I should change my walk-in wardrobe to that...idea... change your WIW to a beer fridge ah?

reizzz 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2010 (edited) just received another mms from edmund. the reason for this - we have very weird and busybody neighbours. everytime when we were in the unit inspecting on the work progress or discussing with edmund, almost without fail, somebody will try to walk into our unit to look around. just this past weekend alone, an uncle walked into our unit as if it's his own home! my wife and i were just standing in the living room discussing on some matters and that uncle treated us as invisible when i asked him what was he doing, he replied saying that he's just living below our unit and he needed some cement or putty to plaster his tiles as they fell off. in my heart i was like - wtf, can't he just go down to the hardware shop and get some? to cut the story short, i allowed him to take some of the cement lying around. just to avoid any unhappiness even before we move in. but from the way he moved around, i think this is not the first time he came into our unit. not long after the uncle left, a couple came by. they stood at the living room windows, whispered among themselves for a good 5 minutes and laughed suddenly. all these while we were still around and only when my wife looked at them then they left in a hurry -_________-" forgot to add - the uncle even asked us if we are the tenants. only when i told him we are the owners then he said he's living below us -__-" Edited September 13, 2010 by reizzz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your neighbours are really... -__-||| The notice is quite funny though! yea. i almost LOL-ed in the office. anyway, nothing much is going on for my unit at the moment. when we were there on saturday, a guy came and installed the bedroom doors. patching was finally over (much to edmund's relief) and painting is nearly done on all the walls but will need a coat or two more to cover the old paint completely. the wall in the photo will be the feature wall. will be placing a faux white fireplace and a victorian mirror there.
