Second Ramadan

It was a Sunday. The plan was to have berbuka at my Sister’s in Kajang. And that was after spending the best part of the afternoon at Viva Home Centre getting stuffs for the new converted bedroom.

At Viva, we spent much of the time at the newly opened SSF Home Furnishings. Certainly there were plenty of neat items to look at. All at reasonable prices. But unfortunately we had problem with the service. At how slow they were.

I was still unable to get myself a replacement workbench after the last one was sold away as they were too big. That would mean another hunt next weekend.

The children appeared to enjoy themselves, but since Irfan had school tomorrow, we had to return early.

More Furniture Hunting

The plan to bring the two boys along for furniture shopping was a complete disaster. In less than 5 minutes at the Lorenzo outlet at Jalan Ampang, Idlan had started sulking. Before long, we had to send the boys home.

45 minutes later, rather than returning to Jalan Ampang, we decided to head out to Viva Home Center again. And this time, we made progress. Anita got what she wanted. And a few others would be on order in the next couple of weeks. Exciting time.

There was also time to have a quick look at some cats at the main lobby. Apparently there was an exhibition all weekend. On cats. Exotic ones.

In the end, we managed to salvage the day. Delivery dates were arranged. And we are both looking forward for the furnitures. The hunt was at least halfway over.

Viva Home Center

It had been a long day, sorting put the flat. I spent the afternoon after work doing measurements of the hall and rooms.

Anita then asked me to take her to Viva Home Center at Loke Yew. The place was certainly much bigger than I thought. A new place, opened right next to a main artery from the center of town to Cheras. Even on a Saturday, the road was full. Luckily, the mall itself was rather quite.

We had the chance to look at some of the furniture shops and some of the outlets were surprisingly affordable. We were still browsing and decided against making any purchase, but at least we had a good idea in terms of budgeting and the design which we wanted.

Parking at the place was ample, and I didn't have to pay any parking fee. I was not sure either because it was free, or free in the first couple of hours.

The Viva Home Center was not all furniture though. Thy have a supermarket, chemist, video shops as well as a decent selection of eatery. The place was too big for us to enter all the shops in under a couple of hours. So, we may have to return next time. It seemed that Saturday evening was not a bad time to come at all.
