That's one reason why I have it in the glass shelf rather than open shelf... haha...

Anyway, gotta be prepared to "let go" my lego too if God intend to let me hv a kid.... haha...

Mum will probably be screaming : "Dun touch Daddy's Lego!".... :lol::D

RedDEvils..... if u mean the Lego... haha... u go it wrong... "Let go" as in not selling away... but as in if I have a kid, then I muz face heart pain and see it go rip apart.... but then again, if I have a kid, I may consider selling it and get normal blocks for him... too heart pain to see collector items being destroyed by kids... haha... even my nephews do not touch my lego.... Anyway, will remember u if I selling them next time lah....

Flubberina... Cool sis! I'm always proud of those who go out into the mission field... but guess my calling is pretty much the field in our own home country... maybe starting with my new neighbours... ;) God bless and do let me know if u hv the intention to go South Africa.... I will arrange something w my friends... Call me when u are back, ya? By then, u should see a matured tank liao lah...

Hey seamonkee

love the furniture? Where did you get the pieces? Esp the rattan sofa and the dark wood kitchen table.

Niiiiccccceeeeeeee...........

I got it at Balestier... This shop call Rainforest Living... It is behind Balestier Plaza.... U tell them what they want, they custom-made and then bring it in from Chiangmai...

Previously, it was this bare... compared to above.... just for comparison.... :)

Paid about $4k for the two sofa seater and three seater...

Package includes the cushions, side table...

My $4k also include the two sets of dining table benches which are customed made....

The sofas u see are not made from rattan but rather weaven water hyacinth.... it is the "in" thing now I heard... but cool that it fits my theme...

U can also get them at The Nature living but The Rainforest shop is cheaper...

One thing I discovered about dried hyacinth is that it not treated properly, they will harbour boring beatles that will deposit their poops everywhere. :sick:

I threw away one couch after I repeatedly treating it with wood worms killer to not avail! :evil::angry::evil::angry:

Hope it will not happen to yours. :angel:
