DAYS OF OUR LIVES CONTINUE IN BRUNEI DARUSSALAM

In the later part of February and early part of March 2013, we came home in Brunei Darussalam very happy to see the completion of our new verandah,  relocation of the YURI parabola to the roof of the house, latest progress of our new detached house having many hassles selling it, planting of the grafted sweet lime, Petlon jackfruit, langsat duku, neemtree, coconut, replanting of red hedges along the road and pruning our potted plants....   we continued to enjoy looking at our birds and harvesting fruits.....   we also attended our brother/brother-in-law second daughter's engagement ceremony.... we had farewell lunch with my former Financial Controller of Halaqah Sdn Bhd, Mrs Josephine Suaverdez....   and few days before we left for Melbourne, we sold our detached house for $250,000.00 with $10,000.00 agent commission and our old carport has been started to be renovated to become a two-storey verandah.....

 

DAYS OF OUR LIVES CONTINUE IN AUSTRALIA

In the later part of January and early part of February 2013, we came home in Melbourne excited about our fruit trees ripening such as  plum, eggplant, apricot, red pear, tomatoes, grapes, nectarine, nashi pears, and gala apple.....   most hedge plants, 2 pines and persimmon were dying lacking water....   lawn weeds and grasses were to be cleaned....   hedge plants and other vegetable beds were covered by weed mats for better water retention too....   we usually went to the Airport flight landing point for an ice cream or crepes.... Akustimin and Akustiman were giving Mum's belated birthday dinner and lunch respectively....  and finally, a new HP UltraBook computer with 8 RAM, 500 GB, COREi7 and Window 8, was bought interest free for 12 months at $1,387.00....   we left Melbourne for Bandar Seri Begawan that day with plenty of ripened grapes for the birds as amal jariah since our boys are not interested to eat them....
