Legal action? -
i'd suggest violence but it's only for psychological gratification

bit difficult when this person is a friend who has given you other projects also, but this was for the church, and they promised that I would get to do the project and pay my full fee then, its been nine months and still waiting for the church board to ok the project... sigh...Originally posted by honeymouse:I heard many stories like that..... can you do anything about it??

Hmmmm.... as you know church funding can be rather tight sometimes as they need to get every members of the church to agree first. Which church do you attend over there?Originally posted by breytonhartge:bit difficult when this person is a friend who has given you other projects also, but this was for the church, and they promised that I would get to do the project and pay my full fee then, its been nine months and still waiting for the church board to ok the project... sigh...

We live in Ringwood North, about 20-30 min drive from Glen Waverley.
Krispy Kreme donuts? We're over it now. Think the queue has died down too. -

Krispy Kreme donuts are more economical if you buy by the dozen. I'm NEVER falling into that trap again though!
The first time I went to Krispy Kreme, I had missed it sooooooooo much because it had been four years or more since I last had it in the States that without much hesitation, I bought a dozen different ones.
Went home, ate one, told myself, freeze the rest and ration for the next two weeks.
Fat lot of good planning did. Sometimes, the stomach growls louder than the brain!
Kept walking to and from the kitchen, kept opening and closing the box to look at the lovely donuts, ok, one more won't hurt!
And as visions of my obese and morbidly obese patients' generous proportions flashed through my mind, I continued to chew, thinking, "Yeah! Must not eat until I become like that!"
In the end, I finished a dozen donuts over four days! ONE PERSON!!!! Whatever happened to two weeks?! 
After that, no more!! I no longer walk past any Krispy Kreme shops! They are dangerous, I tell you!! Delicious, but they are that way cause they are fat-laden and my favourite term - a diabetic's nightmare that will send you straight into a diabetic coma!
I shall never abuse you again with another high cholesterol-high glucose assault, my dear beating heart! -

what four days??? I finished a box of originals in half a day.. .talk about glucose rush... hehehe... they are so light and fluffy... and so easy to eat... I prefer the originals. They are the best...Originally posted by Rhonda:

donut factory in singapore is soo crowded.

Say, Brey, which flights do you think would have a higher chance of being pretty empty?
- Weekend or Weekday flights? I'm thinking Fri/Sat/Sun/Mon.
- Daytime departure flights, 9pm departure, or departing Midnight.
I just can't figure it out and make a decision. I've yet to book my flight home, btw! -
After Krispy Kremes, you won't bother to go for any other donuts.Originally posted by stellazio:donut factory in singapore is soo crowded. -

my god brother brought 4 boxes down about a month ago... all finished now... -
we should open a krispy kreameOriginally posted by stellazio:donut factory in singapore is soo crowded. -
Ooooh!! Nice godbrother you have there!Originally posted by breytonhartge:

You may want to consider taking legal action because with the $1K paid, there's stilla balance of $24K which is pretty substantial!Originally posted by breytonhartge:tried to.. but still no avail... -
Yeah! Although Singapore has so much unhealthy food already that opening a Krispy Kremes here would just result in higher fatality rates for cardiac cases!Originally posted by breytonhartge:we should open a krispy kreame
My American friend told me once that the reason why Krispy Kreme donuts are so 'light' is because they are drenched in lard! Don't know if that's true or not, but in this case, I choose to exercise selective deafness! -
monday flights will be the emptiest... worst ones are fri/sat/sunOriginally posted by Rhonda:Say, Brey, which flights do you think would have a higher chance of being pretty empty?
