See I made myself a new cupboard! We have been dying for more storage space ever since we moved into this small house and now we are even more desperate as Cameron’s gadgets seems to overtake all our other kitchen stuffs.
I bought 2 big pieces of chipboards from Wickes 2 weeks ago and battered them with screws. The cupboard top is a worktop removed from the kitchen to make way for my new fridge. I have just finished the cupboard with wall papers today.
Well, I was thinking of buying initially but couldn’t find one tall enough to fit the IKEA racks. The closest one cost about £100! And I have only spent less than £20 for this. At some point  I will give it a door…

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me…

A brand new ebay WC.

Eng’s newfound project…bathroom DIY. He removed the yucky old WC and replaced it with a new one that he bid from ebay for £135. Sounds like a disgusting job doesn’t it? Surprisingly, no creepy crawlies, no undecent stench and no messy areas. You must be thinking why on earth do we need to DIY in a developed country. Well these countries are well-known for their expensive services and high labour costs. Imagine paying £150 just to change a WC, Eng rather does it himself (with some advise from friends). That’s the reason why most people living in the UK, States and OZ tend to develop a substantial level of DIY skills. However, there are still demand for plumbers and electricians and they are quite well paid. Anyway, I’m so pleased with the 1 piece WC which is neat, comes with dual flush and a soft close cover, haha our new throne.
