Did Ah Soon lose YOUR quotation?

Ah Soon called to tell me that he has lost some of his quotations today due to some nebulous events resulting from bad karma (which resulted from him making so many people wait for his quotations [but this is bad cos more people will have to wait for his replacement quotes - more bad karma!])

Anyway, he told me that the quotation of someone I recommended (from Blk213 Yishun) was one of the ones lost! Good grief and fiddlesticks!

Ah Soon appealed for me to give him the guy's contact so that he can get back to the guy about it and generate a new one for him soon. Tricky part is, I don't know who I recommended. (There's just so many~!) Tricky business without proper tracking. Whoever it is who used my name to ask him for a good bargain, please call him back.

So I went back to google up mentions of Ah Soon at renotalk (so many people asking for his contact were directed from there) - and there's just so many mentions of Ah Soon!

Apparently after I blogged about Ah Soon (and posted mentions of him in renotalk) he became the hottest favourite in Renovation Town.

Hottest favourite, and infamous too for being the best pilot in Singapore at flying people's aeroplanes. Hardyhaha.

Happenings. and, oh, Ah Soon.

It has been a long time since we last blogged about our renovations....but I'm not going to talk about renovations now. Need to talk about Ah Soon.

I digress to summarize stuff cos we all like to talk about ourselves - our motely crew of 2 in our tight ship has been sailing some epic journeys after the ones dealing with renovations in our nest (Finding the Right Contractor and Finding the Right Contractor II)

In a similar taste we went to great lengths (again) for the best deals:

1. Finding the Right Hotel in Singapore (in the likes of renovations, we went to soooo many wedding shows and talk to soooo many Banquet Catering Teams - more than 20. Final call - Hotel Rendezvous.)
2. Finding the Right Hotel in Vietnam (long distance research + coordination is hell. Final call - Park Royal)
3. Finding the Right Photographer in Singapore - in progress
   
4. Finding the Right Photographer in Vietnam - in progress
   
5. Finding the Right Honeymoon package (SGD$150. Return tix. Melbourne. No spelling mistooks. Beat that.)

...If I live to tell the stories about each of them, then I will. But I have digressed. I'd better get to my next blog about Ah Soon, which is why I even started to blog this post at all.

Updates

Things have been moving pretty tight since the last post.

Weekdays (after work) and weekends have been devoted to sessions of housewarmings and recce-ing of hotels for our wedding in Oct this year, that there's hardly time for anything else!

Will need to take and post pictures of the house in its final completion soon, as I seem to be owing that to this blog.

Ah, and yes, we got our wedding bands~! We're probably the first couple to get our wedding bands AFTER the ROM, but I must say it is worth the wait. =)

Open House on 20/12(Sat) - 21/12(Sun) ~!

KFC is finally done up~!

Well, almost. We are still waiting for a dressing table and our lovely dining table to arrive on 19/12/2008. (Just in time for Christmas!)

We're also in the process of purchasing knick knacks like utensils, crockeries, decorative stuff, but it should be ok...

As such, we are opening our house to anyone who wants to visit on 20/12-21/12~!
Renotalkers are welcome~! =)
Fellow renovators are welcome~! =)
Anyone is welcome~! =)

Burglars are not.

Contractor overloaded~!

Ah Soon shouts to me

'Don't recommend anymore people to me now~! I'm fully booked till after Chinese New Year~!'

So I say to all,

Sorry, won't respond to anyone who needs Ah Soon's service BEFORE Chinese New Year. He is too overwhelmed with work to even come my house to drill a few holes for my own fixtures. Sob...

Storeroom rack

Getting my storeroom rack from Yee Sin. http://www.yee-sin.com/

Opting for an L-shaped configuration like the one below, I was quoted $325 for a 5-layer wall-to-wall configuration, using 12mm indonesa plywood boards.

Latest pictures of KFC are in~!

95% of the renovation is done.

Here are the pictures in advance. =)
