Ok I won’t push it. Just hear me out. Everyone knows The Secret was a well-packaged variation of a well practiced technique and mind set. So listen to this.

After a stunning meal at The Grand in Camps Bay on Friday night (with emphasis on the food, rather than the service) and a solid toot at Caprice, Saturday’s weather followed through without effort. A stunning day was had at The Entrepreneur’s pile, as we indulged in some surf and turf spectator action; with the […]

This weekend brought another dollop of sunshine, beauty, weed, sex and general spice. Not least of which being this pleasure craft of sorts spotted in the bay.
