Tiling Completed!

The tiling works at the open area between B120 and B121 were finally completed last week! Yippee!! Now we can open our windows a little more once again.

This is how the place looks like from our unit. Much cleaner, brighter and quite refreshing!



Just a few observations:

I am very glad that they have decided to retain those circular stone stools which had served as the 'seats' for us since we moved into this neighbourhood more than 2 decades ago. I was afraid that they might decide to do away with these since they have now installed new benches. But they haven't. Phew!

Notice how the workers have had these circular stone stools lined up neatly in a row (of 6) and in an arc (of 4) just outside the RC? They look so cute, don't they?

The 'stage' is obviously a feature intended for use by the RC people. Although we are unlikely to benefit from it (see my earlier post about the RC's parties which we had attempted to be/feel part of but which we probably will never ever try to participate again), this is nevertheless an improvement. An overdue improvement. But it is better late than never, hor?!

I have seen some people trying out the pebble-studded foot reflexology path a few evenings ago. Surprisingly, they were not limited to the elderly. Some curious 30-40 year-old parents and their waddling toddlers were amongst those checking out this new feature. Hahaha.....

We are not likely to use this - imagine sharing this with a barefooted OL?! - but it is a commendable effort, I think.

Perhaps, I'll try to take some photos from the ground level some time soon.

Oops!

This morning I saw a new layer of black glossy tiles on the surface of the 'stage'! And its sides (ie the 'walls' of the stage) have also been enhanced with some textured surface!! Wow...

AND we thought it was all ready?!

Let's check it out soon.
