Got this little pearler last week. I want you to see it. It’s really special.
Stunning!
Hi Seth,
I hope your Hollywood adventures are going swimmingly! The cold, wet weather has returned to Cape Town this week – but I’m counteracting the appalling weather by contributing to the South African red wine sales, so it’s not all bad.
Some time back I sent you a pearler of an image which I found in Woodstock – the Obama “Yes We Can” Haircut. Ring a bell? I was on my travels again with a colleague around the city last week and after leaving Wembley Square we made our way towards Buitenkant Street. The car was brought to an abrupt halt when I noticed a message that had been spray painted onto a wall pointing towards a window. It was too beautiful not to be photographed.
And Seth – notice how the crack dealers are now aiding the SAPS in “cracking” down on crime. Its so beautiful how, only in Cape Town, one can sell crack to those who truly need it but then always voluntarily make yourself available to the Po-Po. No hidden agendas.
I love this city.
Come home soon Seth!
Best wishes,
Kate R
God, I love that kind of stuff. Reminds me of that one on Ocean View Drive. Have you seen it. Someone sprayed something like “crackhouse” on the side of the house. It’s still there I think, on Ocean View Drive, near Glen Garriff (send pic on your way to work tomorrow if you know it).
So ja, crack houses aren’t just for Woodstock – the Atlantic Seaboard digs them as well.
Charming.
UPDATE:
It seems this little crackhouse is actually next to Wembley Square in Town/Gardens and it really is a crackhouse.
I love that kind of shit!
