[WTB] Fabric Playpen for Dog

JayLew — Sun, 10 Feb 2013 23:47:21 +0800

Hi, I'm looking for a fabric playpen for my dog as it is easier to transport around. I've searched Malaysian websites and petshops but only seen metal ones.. hoping someone here knows where to get one? Besides ordering from the US la.

Thanks!

International Bank in Guangzhou, China

JayLew — Wed, 29 Feb 2012 11:21:31 +0800

Hi all,

I've been searching but I can't seem to find relevant responses. Am sorry if this topic seems redundant..

Anyway, I'll be going to China soon for a business trip. Just to look for some goods, won't be spending too much, first trip there so I'll be mainly just scouting around.

I'm wondering which bank I should use in order to withdraw my funds that will be in a Malaysian bank? Need I open a China bank account? Or will an international bank like HSBC work just fine? I'll want a back-up card just in case one account fails me there, it'll be a wasted trip then.

Also, are debit cards such as Maybank, CIMB debit cards usable overseas?

Your assistance is very much appreciated.

Thanks,
JayLew

Loud digital metronome?

Hey,

I'm looking for a loud digital metronome, I currenly have the wind-up type which is pretty inaccurate(the tempo gets faster after a while due the the metal 'thing' dropping as it tick tock tick tock.

The digital ones I've seen such as Joyo are pretty soft, which is fine when I play my guitar, but I use it for the piano too, and it'll be drowned out then.

So.. any loud digital metronomes to recommend?

Where can I get a guitar 'refinish'?

Hey, I found an old guitar in my house, a Yamaha G-65A. I was wondering if it could be done up like this site did it: http://thejetmedic.com/G65A.aspx

It'll be AWESOME! If I can get mine to look like that.

Any place to recommend? Not too expensive, though it'll probably be worth it. Thanks!

Suitable Cage etc for Winter White Pearl Hamster

JayLew — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 01:00:58 +0800

I've just bought a WW Pearl hamster, and it's pretty young I think, a few weeks old..

I've not bought a cage for it yet, as I'm worried about what kind of cage to get for it. At its current size it is pretty tiny, so will it manage to squeeze between the bars of a metal cage? I've noticed that Habitrail cages have metal bars that look pretty far apart.. will my hamster squeeze through them?

Now my hamster is in a plastic aquarium, but I want to look for a cage.. the aquarium is too small for it. I supposed I could consider a glass/plastic aquarium, but the cleaning up is really messy, plus it'll be way harder to put in a wheel and bottle for it..

Another question.. what kind of bedding do I use? I've been reading online, pine cannot, cedar cannot, cat litter wood pulp(dusty) cannot.. even corn cobs(something about it turning moldy and expanding in hamster's tummy) cannot.. like that.. I just give it toilet paper can ah.. seeing everything also cannot!
