  1. Six long year's waiting.. finally tomorrow is my key collection date! Why? My FS master says tomorrow is a very auspicious date ... for me-:) Good luck to my brothers at Tanglin SERS! They get theirs around close to the next General Elections! Appended by Cecil Lee: "Hi Cat! I thought HDB does not allow cats? You very special Ah?"
  2. Rule 1: The boss is always right! Anyway luckily.. "he's" not my boss! And I really don't know it's gender! For this reason: Rule 1 does not apply to me-:) Location: Redhill / Henderson / next to City Vue SERS Hey! Look carefully! Are you blind???? I was not run-over! This was my home for the past 6 years. Know why????
  3. Watch out for the future review... a 99 years leasehold development where Singapore Press Holdings seems to have diversified into the property segment... From the above streetmap: the layout of this condo looks conservative and mostly straight rows...
  4. Mayfair Gardens at 2 Rifle Range Road – Keep in view for further review when more details are available. Intermission… No, it’s not a golf club. But it’s definitely cooler! I have fond memories of the summit of Rifle Range Road and its rich history, including the origins of the Singapore Gun Club and the Singapore Rifle Range Association. When I was young, my dad, who was a member of the Singapore Gun Club, used to bring us to the Gun Club Range. The Singapore Gun Club was located on top of a hill. The club had a store modeled after gun shops in the US. If you’ve seen shows like Rambo II, you’ll know the type—members could simply go in and buy all kinds of ammunition and accessories, much like how we visit an Apple store today. He practiced shooting clay pigeons for leisure, not in competitions, using his personal shotgun. My father had a gun permit, and yes, he had a special cabinet built at home to store his guns. This was registered with the Singapore police at the time. Even when he wore a shotgun vest and fitted a rubber sleeve to the wooden butt of his shotgun, you could still see bruising on his shoulder afterward. That’s how much explosive power a twin shotgun can deliver without built-in recoil absorption. Watching him practice was always enjoyable, aside from the loud noise. Many weekends, after shooting, he would use a linseed oil-based lubricant to clean his shotgun. He also had an air gun. Even today, whenever I smell linseed oil, it reminds me of his guns. Once, his company's factory by the river at Jalan Papan off Corporation Road was infested with crocodiles. He bought special waterproof shotgun shells and I went with him to watch as he shot some of the crocodiles from the platforms. My father also enjoyed bat and bear hunting in Malaysia. He once bought a Winchester heavy-duty flashlight that used D-cell batteries and could be strapped to the forehead. It was the forerunner of today’s powerful searchlights, and it was a thrill for me to secretly play with it back then. Sorry for digressing—now, about the location. It’s a leasehold property with a 99-year term. For those considering a home at Rifle Range Road, you can share this story about the Singapore Gun Club and the existence of the Singapore Rifle Range Club. By the way, the Singapore Gun Club is still around today. Would you believe that I am now very familiar with Rifle Range Road and its grounds?
  5. Other key indicators summary More
  6. Photos taken today Client says: “It’s a pretty long six (6) years waiting..” Developer says: “No choice.. all internal partition walls are solid prestressed concrete.. that’s why! Quality never comes fast or quick!”
  7. Spice @ Spices Location: Redhill Market #01-89 closed on Mondays (like today) Mum says their powdered spice mixes many times better than that of Geylang Serai market.. Furthermore can keep in the fridge for couple of months when needed. Operating usually from the mornings to around 2pm plus. Understand from the elderly couple running the stall that it was his former mother’s-in-law stall like around for I believe 70 or more years! For dry ingredients: $1 or $2 per packet..
  8. Part 10: Links to similar type of Sha Qi or poison arrows: The Luxurie And La Fiesta
  9. Luxurie was mentioned, here
  10. Nothing exceptional...acceptable...but not Everyday food. As the gravy is often sweet... Not marked on my photo... close-by (on the opposite lane of the red arrow) Their mee goreng also so so.
  11. Epok Epok Central closed today. Location as shown roughly by the yellow arrow Reopened on another day. A simple $2/- nasi lemak meal Their chilli is just right (Malaysian style) well balanced not too sweet and “light”. Key to this stall’s nasi lemak. Looks spicy.. but really none at all..
  12. Ali Baba as shown by the earlier green arrow. Their prata gravy is thick. They do sell mee goreng. But not my first choice for mee goreng. In 2022, this store is closed. And replaced by a Malay store selling assorted items, lontong etc..
  13. Handmade fishball noodles. They make their fishballs fresh in the stall every day. Once they are sold out, usually by 1 p.m., the stall closes. Their speciality is a half piece of tau pok stuffed with handmade fish ball meat. The location is shown in the first thread as the stall marked with the blue arrow. You can request for extra spicy, like I always do. $3 for standard or $4 for large. This was the $3 flat rice noodles. My usual thin noodles were sold out by 12 p.m. today. Another visit to the stall. Their special is half a tau-Pok stuffed with fish cake $4/- mee pok, spicy plus if we add the small red chillies... great! A simple comfort food:- Around 2021 onwards, prices are Small $4.50, Medium $5.50 and Large $6.50
  14. Cecil , while I checking my past email , then I realized that we engaged Robert to pick Our wedding date , then you helped us on our first house then now 2nd house..
  15. Hope I have better luck now! I forced the developer to change a new name. The developer has renamed my girlfriend's home to "CASA AL CAVALLO!" OH NO! NOT AGAIN! This time HORSE means "CAVALLO!" in Italian! *FAINT*
  16. My girlfriend stays at "Casa Al Horse.. sorry I mean Casa Al MARE!" My sign is a RAT. And my geomancer told me that RAT's worst pairing is a "MARE" I mean an adult female horse! "Stop horsing around! I waited at your main gate for nearly 3 hours already!"
  17. Part 2: The site of Casa La Mare in 1966: In 1966, the site where Casa La Mare sits on can be considered as virgin land. This site was midway between Kampong Loyang to it’s East and Pasir Ris Hotel at it’s NW. Pasir Ris Village was at it’s 8’oclock. The Hotel is no more today.
  18. Part 1: Sales Brochure Resources Casa Al Mare's in English is simply translated as “Beach House." Do you know this development’s name in Italian simply means = Beach House. (Since it makes sense given that indeed it will be close to the beach.) What if the developer had used “Casa La Mare” instead? It will then literally means “House the sea” or more appropriately = House by the sea. Next time if someone comes to you and makes fun of this development's name. Tell them instead that "Mare" DOES NOT mean an adult FEMALE horse that is more than four years old. Else it would instead be called a Filly if it is below four years old. Imagine "Casa Al Filly" hahahaha.. Anyway, one really does not need to understand Italian to buy the place right. All it takes is $$$xxxxxxx. The main entrance faces both the main entry to the public carpark (beside downtown) & the Pasir Ris Park. Even today, some people are still not comfortable with a unit directly above the swimming pool.. And in I-Ching, it implies "difficulty"...
  19. Interlude... since no site plan or floor plans available, yet. Sorry for the side-track = If you are hungry after your visit to the Parc Esta showroom...
  20. Revisited the waybackmachine.com = an independent site. And a summary confirmation of the audit trail showing clear evidence of the start of Geomancy.net in 1998:-
