hi carrotcakegirl! i have one question, do you have any idea if the wall beside the main door (where the circuit breaker is), is hackable? coz i actually have the intention to hack away that wall but not sure if the circuit breaker can be located elsewhere, like maybe beside the household shelter, any idea? :unsure:

Finally the day has come, the day that we've been waiting for!

3rd Oct 2012-Our Keys Collection Day!

Our Blk's PCD stated 4th qtr and estimated to complete by end of September - for the last week of September I kept on login into HDB webite eeeeveryday without failed. Hahaha!

On Monday 1st October 2012, I received a phone call from HDB asking me if I can come and collect the keys on Wednesday 3rd Oct 12??? Without thinking much, my answer is a BIG YESSSSSS!!!!

Couple hours after confirming the appointment date and time via phone call, FINALLY the status has changed!!!!!! weeeeeee :dancingqueen:

Me and hubby took 'last minute' leave on Wednesday... OMG! It feels like overwhelming joy!!

We are the early bird!!! reached Etiqa Sdn Bhd@HDB around 0800hrs to buy fire insurance before collecting our new home keys. Then we headed to McDonald's for a quick bite!

Tick tock tick tock!!!! let the pictures do the talking :D

Hi kaylinpickles,

Yess, that wall is hackable.. my initial plan was to hack that wall too! but to relocate the power distribution point will cost you super X !! :deal:

But to relocate it beside the bomb shelter i dun think possible.. cuz we can hack drill and etc.

You from Champions Court too? :dribble:

If you have the same floor plan/unit layout as mine... maybe you can relocate it near the kitchen entrance.

:yamseng:

Hi Cynta28 - thank you for welcoming me :) I'm from w'lands too! :yeah: drive 62 near the Admiralty MRT haha :rofl:

We paid $7 for the basic insurance but I think it's advisable to purchase better coverage/premium ya :good:

Hi carrotcakegirl

Thanks for the jb contact. Managed to order from them.

Did you face any problem at the custom when the officers saw the 12 cartons of bricks in your car?

Hi Nexer,

Waa!! Save $$$$ :sport-smiley-004: how many cartons you order from them? you self collect or deliver to JB? So far my smuggling mission went smoothly.. ahaks!

brought back 2 cartons on every weekend with 2 cars, all thanks to my aunt and uncle :yamseng: and sometime we went to JB on weekday (night after office hour to top up fuel and dinner) we continue smuggle lil bit more :sport-smiley-018: and the remaining cartons left at my parent's crib in JB and the smuggling continues for about 2 weeks heh :notti:

I think now Hafary or Lian Seng Heng got no business already selling their CraftStone/Bricks products :bleah:
