np... SSHG
he is actually my good friend's friends husband. he is also a very active grassroot leader. I think he really enjoys helping people. I actually booked him about half a year ahead, as I needed to fulfil HDB's requirement. cos we wanted to hold our simple wedding reception at our own newly acquired nest, then of cos i have no banquet receipt whatsoever to produce to HDB.
I approached another female JP whom many told me she was good, but she was so sarcastic towards me when I told her I wanted to book her about 6 months in adv, she commented that "how'd she know I am not lying to her, and I will surely go through with the wedding?" when all I needed was a verbal agreement for her to be my JP. well.. maybe she had some bad experience before, but it really didn;t warrant that tone and voice that made me feel really disrespected. she didn't have the right to do that!
anyway, once again, i find Raymond with very good attitude... you just let him know what you want when you meet him before hand... all would be well.. And not forgetting.. CONGRATULATIONS!
