This aricle has been brewing for some time and may have been touched on before. I remember some time ago I gave my ten cents with regards to phone calls that come in from Private Numbers – you can read about those here and here. the majority of you agreed. Today’s discussion (the comments section […]
So some friends from L.A. rolled into town for a week and managed to pack in quite a bit. They stayed at the new One & Only hotel (review pending – the jury is still out) at the V&A Waterfront and headed out each day, ticking off the various adventures to be had. It was […]
We’re pretty passionate about cellphone rules (check out article Latest Cellphone Rules), here at 2oceansvibe and have even included them in our Cape Town Rules section of the site. Following on from that article, I have noticed more and more people struggling with private numbers. I’ve found that some people are still unable to ignore […]

If you call me with a private number or a number I don’t know, I will not answer. FACT . If you don’t leave a message and call me again, I still will not answer. FACT . You can do this as many times as you wish over as many days as you want and […]
As the trend for zero tolerence when it comes to cyclist’s wearing their helmets in public grows, it is interesting to note that some establishments have now made it law. This, found on the menu at Pirates in Hout Bay. 2oceansvibe and Cape Town as a whole, applaud Pirates I must say, my […]

I trust your fellow office workers, colleagues and clients understand the Cape Town January Rule? You know, the (no longer) unwritten rule that […]
Sunday breakfast at Caprice presented us with a front page article with full-size pic, featuring the handicap parking zone in front of the Camps Bay eatery of choice. It seems ANC national executive, Tony Yengeni, had been caught brazenly parking in the handicap zone; whilst unashamedly dining not 10 metres away. Why punish yourself? […]
I went to test drive a bottle of rosé at Caprice this evening. I was expecting something special but, instead, I got the view you see below. I have always been careful not to punish the ill-informed – but then there is another, rather prominent side of me that wants to punish those who suffer […]
We’ve seen a number of embarrassing moments at Caprice, when it comes to the yellow-marked handicapped zone in front of the main entrance. My personal favourite being the time a troop of slicksters emerged from a brand spanking new black Mercedes-Benz. The driver was stopped by another patron as they made their way into the […]
It is with some amusement that I read the words “Private Number” or “Unknown” on my cellphone’s display. The phone is set to ‘silent’, returned to it’s previous position and ignored. Unknown numbers will, quite simply, not be answered. Ever. The non-answering of these calls has become something of second nature to me. It’s honestly […]
You know, just when I thought everyone knew the rules, some arsehole always seems to phone about business, or schedule a meeting, after one o’ clock on a Friday. Absolutely bizarre! Who ARE these people? Can’t you see everything work related ceases to exist after one on a Friday? Can’t you see that even the […]
