As the folks pack up in Oz and head off to Provence to add the final touches to the bastide, a moment was spared to scan a page from an Australian magazine and email it to me. This time, it was an ad for Christmas “gifts for him.” which included the BBQ Brand and the […]
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 […]
After the hurricanes that hit Cape Town this week (see earlier posts including trucks getting blown over outside Caprice), I am pleased to announce that everything is back to normal. This, taken today at 15h00. Utter splendour And where exactly was that taken, I hear you ask? Watch this space..
During Mo-vember (the month formerly known as November) I’m growing a Mo. That’s right I’m bringing the Mo back because I’m passionate about tackling men’s health issues and being proactive in the fight against prostate and testicular cancer. So not only do you get to support a worthy cause, but you get to humiliate me […]
Don’t make the mistake thinking that one-piece costumes are just for grannies. Enjoy this latest shot of Victoria’s Secret model, Alessandra Ambrosio HURTING it in a one-piece. Alessandra Ambrosio – murdering it Fine for girls. NOT FINE for guys.
Given that it is the best chocolate on planet Earth, the scarcity of Daim Chocolate bars in Cape Town is becoming more and more alarming. Every time I can’t find it in its usual haunts (Giovanni’s, Carlucci’s etc.) I pretend that it must just be a one-off. But then, on the fifth time, I get […]
It’s pretty radical stuff being thrown around here, my friends. In short, Bob Skinstad will be hosting tonight’s Luv Sport show via Skype, FROM BERMUDA! It’s what we call “progressive broadcasting” and it’s a first for SuperSport, let alone you. Tonight, 21h10, Supersport 1 (channel 201) Not only will you be able to keep […]
At last, visual evidence of the truck that was blown over outside Caprice yesterday. I can’t believe the photo is right here in front of me. I heard about it and just waited, patiently, for it to land on my lap. It’s so good. The winds are so powerful. They make me so CRAZY! […]
This is Angelina Jolie earlier this week at the premier of her new film, Kung Fu Panda. The girls will enjoy admiring Angelina’s legs, posture and dress.

You know that steep road that joins Kloof Road with Kloof Nek Road? Just up from Bacini’s? Ja, that’s the one. Well, anyway, it’s blocked off because a tree committed suicide over the road. I swear. Check it out. Hectrique!The winds experienced today are what we call “crazy” I think that guy standing […]
Best Man speeches can go either way. They can bomb, or they can kill. Some best men miss the mandate and spend their time regaling stories of the various skanks the groom nailed in his singles – Cringe City. Whilst others are just sublime, like when The Rock completely fucking murdered it on The Outside […]
Some buddies of mine (including The Film Guy) have started this very cool Cape Town concept, called Taxi Jam. You can check out their website here. In a sentence : Taxi Jam is a selection of South Africa’s finest creative talent performing in an intimate 5 minute taxi ride. It’s pretty fucking cool and I […]
Like taxis, we have come to tolerate our lycra-engulfed brethren and now realise that the only defense is to simply divert young childrens’ attention away from the bizarre behaviour and stray balls on display. Sunday morning gave us some extreme examples of how the Shimano Warriors’ anti-social behaviour has gone WAY past the edge of […]
You may have caught the news that Amy’s husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, has been freed from jail and has gone directly to rehab. But that’s not what we’re focusing on here. We’re focusing on Amy and I think the best thing would be to get a visual update. I made up a saying a few years […]
I’ve never been to the Diemersfontein Wine Farm before and, given that it was the first of it’s kind, I had never before indulged in the Woolworths Wine Festival. And what a treat it was! Positioned next to the town of Wellington and owned by Woolworths co-founders, The Sonnenberg Family, the farm is one of […]
It goes, “Ey stranger. Long time. Do you remember who i am and what i look like or do you enjoy deliberately ignoring someone when their (her spelling) literally sitting behind you at Caprice“ Weird. She starts off semi-normal, and then seems to get a bit of a wobbly towards the end. I get a […]

I’ve never really caused a scene about Jessica Biel, but couldn’t let this picture that appeared in my inbox go to waste. Yeah, she fine.. Jessica Biel – fine! Justin Timberlake is tapping that at the moment, you’ll be interested to know. Leonardo’s sloppy seconds, I might add. Ooooh!
You might have read the stories in the press surrounding the crash of Johann Rupert’s Ferrari F50, at the hands of his son, 22 year old Anton Rupert Jnr. We didn’t publish anything here as we didn’t feel their scandalous tone warranted a mention. What we will publish, however, is Johann Rupert’s response, […]
Whilst the likes of De Grendel wine are making use of niche marketing opportunities and, as a result, are thriving in today’s ever-changing market place, Distell prefers to block their staff to the outside world. This, while the front page of their website proclaims, “Distell is Africa’s leading producer and marketer of fine wines, spirits, […]
We’ve chatted before about this lovely game the Atlantic Ocean plays from time to time, called “lake-lake.” That’s what it is doing today. It usually comes with an ever-so-thin haze in the sky, causing the ocean to look almost metallic in colour. Camps Bay – todayvery kak Yup, that’s the one. So anyway, […]
One of our favourite supermodels, Heidi Klum, is in a bit of pooh over her chosen Halloween costume. Heidi Klum extends her reach Enjoy this from NDTV: Supermodel Heidi Klum has stirred a controversy by dressing up as Hindu goddess Kali for a Halloween party, with some Hindus seeking an apology from […]
This is the new Maserati and it has a stunning two digit CA numberplate. For those of you who don’t know, short CA numberplates are INFINITELY cooler than ANY WP numberplate – a single digit WP numberplate PALES in comparison to even a double digit CA numberplate. Do not be confused. I would FAR rather […]
A few weeks back I told you about Holly Madison and Hugh Hefner coming to an end and that she was possibly having something with professional freakshow, Criss Angel.

I was a little peckish the other morning so I popped into the Vida e on Kloof Road. I felt like something different and asked Msizi if the Prego Roll was any good. He said I would enjoy it. So off I went. The Prego Roll – by Vida eInsane As worldly and […]
We’re at the end of October and, before the boys start growing their moustaches for the month of Movember (NOTE: WE ARE ALL GROWING OUR MOUSTACHES FOR THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER – FACT), I thought we should play something upbeat. Well, as usual, the real reason why we’re playing this tune is it gave me […]
Capetonians’ favourite pastime of driving absolutely motherless will come under strain this weekend as word is getting out about this weekend’s road block “blits” that will be hitting a blurry road near you. Apparently this season’s road block activity will be the most hard-core ever performed. Ever. In the Milky Way. This is not […]
The Volvo Ocean Race is an around the World sailing challenge that happens every three years. It is a MASSIVE undertaking with nine or 10 legs in total and takes over nine months to complete. And they’re in Cape Town in a couple days time! They will undergo repairs and the sailors get rest until […]
Con-Man’s best friend, Anne Hathaway, can be found in the latest Vogue spread. I thought I’d show you some of the pics. I don’t know why I feature Anne Hathaway on these pages. There’s just something about her. Her face bone structure, perhaps. Something like that. Or her full lips. I’m not too […]
