Got a call from Harvey Norman on the compensated fridge - Toshiba, about 1.5k lesser than our original fridge. We will writing to Harvey Norman to compensate cash or voucher instead.

Harvey Norman [update 1]

Got a call from Harvey Norman this morning about the contractor agreeing to compensate us with a new refrigerator - however won't be the same brand, nor to the same amount & neither to what we requested [if we do have that option]. 

Got to wait for few more days before knowing what will be the outcome. 

Will update again later. 

Baby Bugs + Our Kids

Heard the meowing for couple of days, Retna told me there was a new born kitten behind the house.  After several days of consideration, decided to go to back and collected the kitten.  

Baby Bugs [name given by Elijah, was struggling between James, Thomas..... until we told him she is a girl], brought back to out house on Thursday.   

Besides to having her be out children's first cat & second companion after Jackie [our existing dog], we let Jackie to experience her feminine side of being a mother.  Off course Retna's intention is to train Jackie not to harm cats as our neighborhood is occupied by many cats. 

I noticed few things after Baby Bugs came to our house, especially on our children:- 

1. They play "softer" now, not as rude 

2. Brings joy to the children and also letting them play with an animal that is much smaller than Jackie.  As you can see from the picture, Jackie is many times bigger than Baby Bugs 

3. They speak much gentle, they learn to apologise to each other, this is new 

Share your moments of joy with your animal friends in the comment section.  

Cheers. 

Beware [2] Harvey Norman

Our Whirlpool refrigerator has been sent for fixing for the 3rd time now.  Look at the pictures in the right, you can see clearly that the fridge is badly dented.  

We got the extended 5-year warranty from Harvey Norman.  This is the 2nd time we are using the warranty service by Harvey Norman of which the first warranty was done by Whirlpool.  

We have filed our complaint in the past on about the Harvey Norman contractor professionalism [the unit being carried back without any wrapper nor bubble wrap & the top part of the door was badly dented when being transported back to us the last time].  We thought it has improved, obviously it got worse.  

Saw the unit transported in a mini van of which no wrap-around nor bubble wrap and badly scratched.....  Guess what the technicians actually told us that they will get us a replacement unit as they thought this fridge cost RM1k plus....  I told them it was above RM3k.  They were trying to convince Retna that these dents are small matter, we should take it as the fridge is working now.....  :-( 

Preparing some documents to be submitted to Harvey Norman.  Will update again. 

    

Beware [1] Mid Valley > Child Molester!

I was at Mid Valley on Thur, Mar 6, 08 with my mom, Ariel & Elijah searching for places to fix Retna's glasses and at the same time to search for a pair of small portable pc speaker for my MacBook. 

While waiting for 3M Trading [level 2 IT World @ Mid Valley], Elijah wanted to go to the toilet, so my mom took him.  My mom waited for him while he was in the male toilet, she heard Elijah screamed, "Stop, don't catch me.  I will call my father," my mother went in there & saw the Malay male [mid 20s was holding Elijah's arm].  He ran out when he saw my mom.  

[The toilet entrance is between Amarin Thai & Machines]

We then went to the customer service counter, of which there was no one presence, so called the general line of which went into the automated voice reply.  

This immediately brought up two very important messages:- 

1. It is not safe, even in Mid Valley 

> Have heard many incidents in the past about the security in Mid Valley.  Never bother too much until this happened 

2. Child Molester, is everywhere 

> My mom [a Parkinson patient] was having difficulty in identifying the "molester", or he could just look normal, like all of us 

> Do not let your child enter the toilet all by himself or herself 

Praise & thank God that Elijah is safe. 

Cheers.
