On & After 080807

0808 of 2007 has come & gone....

A good day it was then. Ordered our new fridge the day b4 & it was delivered on 0808! A Panasonic NRB282G. One of those in the "Magic Top" range. Freezer compartment is at the bottom instead of the normal top in 2-door refrigerators.

Here are different views of our Magic Top fridge...still empty at that time...hehe... :

Yea...empty as in pics but sorry...not anymore...ha ha!

As you can see, there are lots of shelves & trays. However the location & size do not permit easy storage of the variety of items/containers/foods that inevitably ends up in our fridge. Me had to remove the 3rd tray in the refrigerator compartment to accomodate larger containers. Now we have a "spare" tray...hehe...

Btw I wonder if you guys have ever heard of this. It seems that a new fridge that has been transported some distance by road, should NEVER be connected and switched ON until after abt 6 hours. If that advice is ignored, seems the new fridge would sort of go "Boom!!". First time me heard that when informed. Wonder if there is any truth in that.

To be on the safe side, me "obediently" followed said advice! Well, the good point is our new fridge is operating fine...since then. Keeping fingers Xed that this one would last as long as its predecessor did. 1979 till 2007! And was still going strong when carted away .... would have loved to have been able to keep it tho. However, being the "tiny, little" home we have now, it would have been redundant. A sheer waste of space, energy & $$$...

Btw me also noticed a small discrepancy in specs of new fridge. Advertised as a 310 Litre model. In flyers. In adverts. Even in the DO & Invoice. But in reality, fridge is only a 279 Litre one. How in heaven's name did who knows who ended up with the view that 310L = 279L or vice versa. What is wrong with today's world?

Besides that, nothing much to tell. Made a few minor purchases via Auction at lelong.com.my. Awaiting delivery. Every purchase is a risk. One never really knows what one is getting.

As I always believed, no news should be regarded as "good" news. A routine day is also a "good" day.

So time to wish one & all a good day...you know what I mean, right? Be happy.
