QUESTIONABLE SEA POINT SIGNAGE
03 Aug 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
A 2oceansviber stopped at the BP garage in Sea Point the other night and looked up to see this sign looming over the forecourt. It seems that part of the sign was out, making the vibe even more questionable than before! Not sure this is the type of thing we want to encourage on […]

Taken very recently at the entrance of a bar in Thailand. That’s a lag! There are tons of hilarious things that people spot in Thailand. A lot of it is sent in to 2oceansvibe. A lot of it doesn’t make it to the vibe. But this one does, because it’s GENIUS! It’s pretty […]

THE HARBOUR EDGE KNEE JERK
21 Jul 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 45 Comments
I spent the night at The Muse ‘s place at Harbour Edge on Sunday night. We woke up in the middle of the night at some Godforsaken hour, with the intercom ringing. It’s an incredibly loud sound that it gives and, for a moment, I genuinely thought we were under attack. It went on for […]

06 Jul 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 12 Comments
I cruised into Woolies on Saturday with The Photographer (who just won a bronze lion at Cannes for this, I might add) and spotted something I had never seen before. “Suck me sideways!!” I yelled, “look at THIS!!” Woolworths have now erected a “complementary sanitising wipes” station next to the trolleys.

TECHNO BABIES AND FRENCH COMEDIANS

You’ll recall previous sightings (here ) of crazy-ass dogs and ears […]

A frothy phenomenon unique to Cape Town’s Sea Point Promenade, are the lager-like foam blowholes; the result of the pressure from the ocean waves blasting through a series of storm water vents positioned on the lawns. A stunning visual treat, slowly becoming more of a drawcard for the tourists flocking to these shores. Photo […]

REVOLTING KLOOF STREET STUDIOS STATUE FALLS OVER IN STORM
18 May 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 6 Comments
Whilst it may not contain as much symbolism as, say, the US army pulling down the statue of Saddam Hussein, I think this might be a silent victory for a number of people who work and frequent the area surrounding Long Kloof Studios , Kloof Street, Cape Town. This weekend’s storm was so big and […]
