Hi Micky and Val,
I intend to go to Australia (Melbourne, Sydney & Brisbane) because i feel that there's more things to see than New Zealand.. dunno why, but NZ gave me the kind of feeling like it is always scenery and farms
My colleague went to the Chan Bro's travel fair last mth and he told me tt it cost nearly $3 k each to go to NZ during Dec. The off-peak period for NZ only starts from 14th of Jan but it also wud cost ard $2.6k (i think). Thus he has changed his mind and decided to go to Africa (cape town etc) for his honeymoon . Me too, i also changed my mind after hearing the price... Australia wud be cheaper and within my budget

angelia...will yr hubby have the hair combing session at his place? i was told by an auntie at chinatown shop dat if groom dun have, then bride also no need...follow the groom procedure
my FH and yr hubby same from msia, i tink they dun have so much customs to follow as compared to singaporeans
if u are having the hair comb session, muz get an elderly person wif good life to do it for u, not necessary yr mom

Dear all, pardon me for barging in... Just want to say Choz cakes are pretty tasty. Alas! cannot keep long coz they dun use preservative.
Angelia, for my "shu tou", it was done by my dad... coz my mum busy trying to take pictures of us... Hahaha, so funny then, both of us gotta freeze for her coz a little clumsy in early morning.

<FONT COLOR="ff0000">Apple</FONT>...all the towels, toothbrush, toothpaste, potty, basin, bedroom slippers, needles and pin etc are prepared by the bride's side as <FONT COLOR="0000ff">Jia Zhuang</FONT> to bring to the groom's family, something like to accompany the bride when marrying to the groom lor
the groom's family is to prepare <FONT COLOR="0000ff">Ping Li</FONT> like those hard liquor, dowry, pig trotters and oranges etc. for GUO DA LI....someting like paying "deposit" hehee
i tink doesn't matter who prepare, but groom and bride are to get the tings ready separately

Potty? Who uses potty now? When my bro got married, my SIL's mother also gave her a potty. Now, it's sitting there looking really out of place. Can I just get my dad to give me a toilet seat cover? More use.
Dad didn't tell me what to get. So I assume he will get all these things ready. Hopefully.

Apple...hahaa u so funni!
if all the things we buy for Guo Da Li will be useful to us in the future, i guess everyone will not mind getting them! hehee
it's juz a custom to follow lor, anyway i bot a small potty and a basin...my FH get a red color tray to put those oranges, not buying the big basket...no place to put in future...

Yeh.
Maybe like what Angelia said, I should probably get a small one for my kid next time.
Anyway, I'll just leave it to my dad. When I asked him the other day, he claims he doesn't know anything abt the stuff to get. Aiyah, doesn't matter to me lah. No potty, won't die.

Not sure about timing, don't recall seeing my SIL come in with a potty & the rest of the stuff. Perhaps a few days b4 e wedding.

Hi
Me too...
I also put on weight like never before. Dunno whether is it due to age. My face is getting so round and showing double chin.
Really can't get used to this look. Used to be so skinny, everyone tells me to eat more...
Anyone has a good & effective way of dieting?

Hi aclim & Micky,
Yup my fren told me NZ is quite boring which is why I change my mind abt NZ.
u mean the off-peak starts from 14 Jan 02 onwards? Huh tat means we'll lugi hor? Dunno whether this applies to all travel agency. But Chan Bro package tend to be more ex right? Maybe you can ask ard other agencies...Btw, are you aware roughly how much does the Australia package costs?

hi aileen,
yep, my dinner will be from Wah Lok cantonese restaurant. The food tasting wasn't that satisfactory, so I hope the actual dinner will be better *fingers crossed*
My dinner in M'sia will be 1 wk after S'pore, to a crowd of abt 10 tables. Like u, I wished it to be just a small, peaceful dinner... but then the elders don't think so leh. Hope u don't face the same situation

wah, u sll so "gan-cheong" ah?! okie, okie...
<FONT COLOR="119911">the hot choc cake is simply heaven!! thx <FONT COLOR="ff6000">jowie</FONT> for get me to "die die oso must try". no regrets!!
we were startled when one of the waiters put a trolley of samples & started explaining... hehe.. but i caught him saying something like "show u the menu card later" so i kind of "switched off" & not listening hard to catch his "slang".. poor hubby was sitting upright fearing he'll miss out anything.. after that, when we were given the menu card, he sure was relieved!! hahaha....
we had the prime cut, share by 2 of us. also a lobster bisque (shared by both), spinach with sauteed mushroom, layonise potatoes (onions with potatoes). the food are all so nice.. esp the onions.. i dun like to eat onions, but guess i took quite a lot last nite
the prime cut is really juicy!! had a hard time trying to finish all the food.. so we waited for the 2nd choc cake (additional 30mins) so that we can "rest" for a while.
same as <FONT COLOR="ff6000">jowie,</FONT> the staff sang hubby a bday song, with a complimentary cheesecake, which we "takeaway" together with the bread.. kekeke...
our total bill came up to be $222.38 cos we had a glass of merlot each.. kekeke...
dun mind going there again, but last nite both of us a bit unused to such high class place.. this is the 1st time we been to such a nice place with such service & we not sure what to do.. worried we embarassed ourselves!!
