With every good news, there's always a bad one accompanying it. Guess, it is the Law of Polarity - we just need to focus which one favours and enriches our life. While it is good to rationalize the bad and to let it go, to focus on the good will certainly keep our spirits high.
Today, we decided to go down to SP Services Ltd, at Somerset Road, to check the availability of city gas for our new flat. We didn't know that we need to do that. Thanks to an encouragement of a friend who insisted that we should enquire, we found out that there is no piped city gas available at our block. Ah, that is such a disappointing news.
Looking back, we have taken (living in) Hertford for granted. Little that we knew there are some places in Singapore that's yet to be piped and city gas ready.
We are not used to gas carnister and it will be a new lesson and lifestyle for us. We informed Chiauw and she needs to redesign the kitchen cabinet to house the gas tank.
The good news .. yay! we save a lot of money today. Chiauw found an Italian-made island hob below $1,000 and purchased it on our behalf today. Those island hobs that we have seen, for a powerful exhaust capacity of 1,000 m3/h, cost about $2,000 and more. I am waiting for her to email me the specifications.
Another piece of good news today:
Mr Wong, the house agent, calls to inform me that he had gone down to HDB Branch Office to report on the yellow marks on the ceiling of the guest toilet. We reported to him, our seller and HDB Officer during our 1st Appointment with HDB. Chiauw noticed the marks during our previous inspection and she feels that these marks are sign of an early water sippage. Mr Wong mentioned that the HDB technical officer will go down to check on it.
Should there be a problem, I believe our seller needs to attend to it as we have not officially gotten the keys yet.
