Bring it back

Finally Capetonians can spend the weekend on the beach doing absolutely nothing and go back to work and make it sound like they did something - simply by saying, "We spent the WHOLE weekend on the beach". In Winter it's criminal to say that you did nothing all weekend. You sound, and feel, useless. But somehow in Summer you get away with it; as long as you do it on the beach. Brilliant concept!

Of course a weekend of beach time will eventually lead to a quiet Millers to get the ball rolling at around 5pm - probably at Caprice. I was impressed with the turnout. A good mix.

Both Tiffany and Emma were absent so we were served by Sylvann. She was good, I'll give her that. Is she the next Tiffany or Emma? I don't know. It's too early to tell. She has the guts to go the distance, but will it be enough for to step up to the plate and put her hand up? Only time will tell.

I chatted to Sox, the Caprice DJ and, due to the Camps Bay environment, I thought it would be fitting for him to play Corey Hart's 80's tune, "I wear my sunglasses at night". some of you might remember it. I'll give you an extract:

I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, so I can
Watch you weave
Then breathe your story lines
And I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, so I can
Keep track of the visions in my eyes

While she's deceiving me
It cuts my security
Has she got control of me
I turn to her and say

Don't switch the blade
On the guy in shades, oh-no
Don't masquerade
With the guy in shades, oh-no
I can't believe it
'Cause you got it made
With the guy in shades, oh-no

"Don't switch the blade on the guy in shades". Is that not just one of the most amazing lines you've ever heard?

This song HAS to make a comeback. It's tailor made for now. It's also great in the gym. If you're wondering what Corey Hart looks/ed like, please cast your eyes over these amazing pics.

Corey, wearing his sunglasses.
Probably at night.

Back to the waitresses. I was chatting to someone the other day and we were discussing the legal ages for things. You can smoke at 16. You can have sex at 16. You can only work when you're 17. When you're 18 you can drink alcohol and drive a car. But you can only be insured when you're 21. So you can't get pissed at 17 - but you can earn money, chain smoke and have sex all day. At least it teaches you what sober sex is like, before you turn 18 and forget altogether. So then at 18, when you start getting pissed, chain smoking and having sex, we'll throw in a car and a driver's license for good measure. Interesting.
