Baru-baru ini air menitik dari siling rumah saya di Denai Alam, Shah Alam. Saya tahu mesti ada paip bocor yang terletak di atas siling. Rumah di Denai Alam menggunakan paip ABS jadi lagi senang bocor dari paip PVC ataupun hansen.
Untuk masalah paip bocor saya akan panggil tukang paip / plumber yang saya biasa guna iaitu Rudy. Rudy adalah orang yang boleh dipercayai selain itu harga pun berpatutan.
Saya pernah dapat tukang paip yang cuba menipu nak caj mahal dan baiki benda yang tidak rosak tapi cakap rosak. Sejak itu, saya hanya panggil Rudy dan sanggup tunggu walaupun tahu dia banyak jobs.
Nama: Rudy
Telefon: 011 3310 8757
1) Paip ABS bocor pada bahagian elbow paip.
2) Tukar ke hansen, tak nak pakai ABS takut senang bocor lagi
3) Pembaikan mengambil masa dalam 1jam 30 minit.
1) Paip hansen 7 kaki, socket PVC x2 dan socket hansen x1 dan elbow hansen x1 : RM75

I have a rusty IKEA bathroom trolley that I have used for so many years. I was planning to dispose it but decided to refurbished it.
The wheel is so rusty that it was detached from the trolley.
It took me around 1 hour 30mn to do this restoration.
1) Remove any rusts using scouring pad
2) Replace the four wheels with rubber cap of 19mm width
3) Spray with silver color on rust that unable to be removed
1) Mr DIY Silver Spray Paint: RM7.30
2) Rubber cap: RM1.20 x2: RM2.40
Total: RM11.70
So instead of buying new of around RM120++, I just spent RM11.70 to refurbish my rusty trolley.
Every year, we do our annual teeth scaling at 1st Dental Clinic Bukit Jelutong, Shah Alam.
There is no particular reason, I think the major reason is that 1st Dental Clinic is the earliest dental clinic in Bukit Jelutong & we visit there every year because they have our dentist records.
We do our teeth scaling every year to ensure not much carries stick to our teeth š and to ensure our teeth are clean.
Dien (scalingĀ & polishing – 9 years old) – RM60
Lisha (scaling & polishing – 14 years old) – RM70
Deef (scaling, polishing and filling one tooth – 13 years old) – RM190
Myself ( scaling & polishing) – RM160
My wife (scaling & polishing)Ā – RM150
Total: RM630
It took around 1 hour to complete all five of us.

Baru-baru ini, tiba-tiba air mengalir dari tempat terletaknya tangki air rumah saya.
Memandangkan banyak juga air yang mengalir saya memanggil “plumber” yang saya baru kenal. Saya namakan dia plumber #1.
Setiap kali, ada kerosakan saya akan minta plumber atau handyman untuk tunjukkan gambar dan video benda yang rosak.
Plumber #1 mengatakan selepas check tangki air bocor dan menunjukkan video lantai penuh dengan air. Saya tanya tak nampak pun air bocor dari tangki. Dia cakap ada bila rasa pakai tangan tapi tak dapat nak ambik gambar.
Dia cakap untuk replace tangki air yang bocor RM2,500. Dia bagi murah RM2,200. Saya tanya dia kenapa tak boleh tampal.
Plumber #1 cakap kalo bocor kat bawah tampal tak tahan lama. Mula-mula saya tak nak ambil, saya nak tunggu hari Ahad je bila plumber yang saya percayai @ Rudy available untuk membuat pemeriksaan. Tetapi memandangkan air banyak jugak mengalir saya membuat keputusan untuk mengupah plumber #1. Cuma syarat saya dia keluar duit semua dulu dan dah siap saya bayar.
Saya cakap terus terang saya baru kenal dia jadi kepercayaan tu tak ada lagi.
Selepas dia balik tak lama lepas itu, dia telefon saya, tangki boleh tampal. Saya tanya dia balik, tadi cakap tak boleh tampal. Plumber #1 cakap dia ada kawan expert boleh tampal hanya RM1,000. (dalam hati saya tampal selalunya orang minta RM400 je)
Selepas dia cakap cam tu saya terus cakap cancel kerja repair saya minta second opinion. Kemudian dia cakap dia bagi RM850. Saya bertegas tak nak proceed.
Plumber #2 iaitu Rudy siap ambil video dan bagitau yang paip yang bocor dan tangki air tak bocor antara buktinya panel kayu tempat duduk tangki air adalah kering.
Hati-hati bila ambil plumber baru dan tiba-tiba nak caj mahal. Lagi baik dapatkan second opinion. Biorlah lambat dari rugi beribu ringgit.
Plumber #2 – Rudy hanya kenakan bayaran RM180 sahaja vs plumber #1 RM2,200.
Alhamdulillah, saya tak kena tipu orang.
No telefon plumber #2 – Rudy

I installed XAMPP then after installation the XAMPP control manager appeared after that. If you restart your computer, I wonder where I can launch it because XAMPP is not appeared in LaunchPad.
Applications folder of XAMPP also has so many files.
Go to Applications -> XAMPP -> xamppfiles .
Then click on manager-osx.
Key in your password and then the XAMPP control manager will appear.
