I have not blogged for some time like 3 weeks now because since going back to Muar , have not had 1) time 2) nothing much to report really on the progress of the house . I will have a discussion on the house in Muar with the contractor this Saturday in terms of what…

This is not about the house reno in Muar because I have nothing much to report on that . Got mum’s silver catering items re-chromed and the items look brand new. The items looks fab . I am keeping one of the items which is the smallest one .
