[his_fairlady]

thomas.. i cant join all of u for the wedding fair... i will be working late till wee hrs tonite.. & wkends have other stuffs to do..
nvm la.. all of u just update me wats happening over there =)

 

[thommy]

HFL: sure!

 

[bluerosie]

wow carlton seems not bad eh...but max is 35 tables right.

 

[happy106]

Thomas, Jaq> Esplanade room - min 10 and max 16 tables.
Empress room - min 23 tables and max 35 tables.

With the new ballroom in the new wing, it's another 35 to 40 tables room.. cannot rem now.. The new ballroom can link with upgraded empress room to form a big ballroom that contain around 70 to 80 tables.. However, dunno how seamless the linking can be.. Becos new ballroom is high ceiling and no pillar.. and the empress room will need to undergo some reno to link up the deco with the new ballroom.. But empress room will still be of a lower ceiling and has pillars..

 

[bluerosie]

when's the reno ready for empress room wor?

 

[thommy]

Thanks Booy for the info...

 

[happy106]

Jaq> Once the new ballroom is ready, the will hold all the weddings in the new ballroom.. Then the reno will start for old empress to upgrade it.. The coordinator says it will be in 2010.. 1st or 2nd quarter.. Might be a bit tight for you..

 

[bluerosie]

booy:so meaning they will open the new ballroom by end of this yr?

 

[happy106]

Jaq> They are expecting to open the new ballroom at around Nov to Dec this year if there is no delay in the reno...

 

[bluerosie]

ah...if delay then jialat liao lor...think better dun risk... lol..

 

[happy106]

If you have more than 35 tables, then it's dangerous indeed...

 

[bluerosie]

diaoz...another venue strike off..LOL

 

[thommy]

Jaq: hahahhahahahhahahaha.................u really gg to DIY this time ler keke

 

[ylng3r]

Booy: which hotel are you talking about?

 

[bluerosie]

void deck liao la...zzzzz

 

[thommy]

ROFL~!

ying: Carlton Hotel

 

[happy106]

Jaq> Lower your req a bit.. hee.. Then no need void deck..

ylng3r> Carlton hotel has 2010 package out till Mar 2010.. You can consider if your AD is shifted to early 2010.. =)

ROFL?

 

[ylng3r]

Jaq: void deck? so jia lat ma? lol.

ROFL: Roll on Floor Laughing?

Booy: hahaha we shall see what the master say 1st.. if Mar 2010, will be same as my birthday month le.. then Feb 2010 New year.. kind of rush for me..

 

[bluerosie]

March2010 gd mahz, still can get angbao for CNY in 2010 then use that to pay for wedding expenses..HAHAHAHAHA =X

 

[ylng3r]

Jaq: then HTB will have excuse not to give me birthday present wor..

 

[blue_diamond]

Thanks Sharelen and HFL,

In fact, i do have friends who are in property industry as well...so was thinking what are some of the option that i can have....

Just find that paying that 1% is abit siong also...tt y trying to find way to save on that...anyway...since she is not my agent also ah.....

Well, that alot of pple who believe that the value will drop in 2009. I have started looking for a flat since sept 2007 till now...

I was joking to my wife...i also dunno y i got the courage to say Yes also...cos i have really view more than 30-40 houses in same areas( think i shld be blacklisted liaoz)...hehehe..

My plan was thinking of getting the flat in 2009, hoping that the price will drop. However, looking at the market, even if the price will to drop, there may not be any seller for flat in the area which i want as well...some more unit which i like.After some thoughts, i decide not to time the market, rather to get a plc which i think is reasonable for the price i pay.Cos as a seller, they will be less unwilling to sell if they know that the market is bad.I just hope that the market dun drop too much at my area...if not i sure super heart pain...hehehehe

For the unit i got, it 5 mins to MRT, 15 Mins bus ride to bugis or town area.There 2 kindergarden ard 2 mins walk, 3 mins to Hongwen area, 5 mins to wet market and seng siong...so i just hope it will be a good catch lor.

 

[bluerosie]

y|ing3r:Noooo ask for bigger pressie..!!!hahahaha combine Vday cum CNY, wedding cum ur bday mahz ;p

 

[ylng3r]

Jaq: then can only get 1 present wor... LOL

 

[happy106]

ylng3r> Then see what shifu says... Like what jaq says, ask for a bigger pressie by combining all the occasions.. so dun worry too much abt a mar date.. hee..

Jaq> The CNY AP is so miserable.. hard to pay much for the AD stuff manz.. sob...

Blue diamond> Think yours is quite a good buy.. I also previously looked at Boon Keng area, but didn't manage to find a decent unit at a low price.. In the ends, I bought bishan unit, paying a 20K COV..

I dun think 2009 pricing will drop a lot.. Dun worry too much for now, since you have already bought your home... =)

Those who are going the wedding travel show this weekend, let me know if there are any PG and VG booth besides travel booths. Thanks ya..

 

[blue_diamond]

Hi Booy,

Thanks for your comforting words...in fact gg to sign the option tmr..hopefully no screw up and everything will go on smoothly...

Dun mind me asking ...how much did u pay for yr unit?4 or 5 rm?

 

[his_fairlady]

Blue_diaomond.. u start searching ur lovenest since 07?? wow.. tts long.. i just started onli.. wonder will it be too late..

 

[vaquita]

hello people i'm back. think i've been MIA for a long time or maybe it's the amazing speed our archive is ballooning

what's the topic now? i see people mentioning about diane. what happened? seems quite serious. hope it's not serious. just came back from a badly needed break to clear my head and the PIL nonsense.

it's a bit belated, but happy new year BTB2010! here's wishing all of us having a smooth wedding prep hehe...

P.S. thomas, are you still the only GTB here? =P how's your FIL?

 

[ylng3r]

Who have carlton price list, which valid till 31 Mar 2010? can send me? [email protected]

Thank in advance

 

[happy106]

Blue Diamond> Mine is a 4 room bishan 16 year old flat.. 12 storey.. 405K valuation and 23K COV... Paid a higher COV because of location near bishan MRT and new circleline marymount MRT.. Plus the previous owner only stayed for 5-6 years.. the house only need minor reno..
