Lip my stocking Not for, like, EVER. But for now, for a little bit, it’s fine.
Let’s be honest, when you see the headline “Anne Expecting Bundle of Joy,” who do you think of? It doesn’t LEAP into your mind, does it? It’s not like Madonna, or Angelina, or Victoria, or Paris, or Lindsay, or Britney, or Kate. Personally, I IMMEDIATELY thought of Anne Hathaway . I was like, “Jesus, baking! […]
You don’t want to get excited about something as big as this until you have actual proof, in your hands. Or, on your hard drive. It is common knowledge that the TBG (Tall Blonde Guy) has been out of town on a three month hiatus (been DYING to use the word “haitus” for a while […]
This reminds me of the cars in LA that park on the street. Sent in by Fergus, after a recent trip to Lagos. Note front right flat tyre.. Bad owner. Naughty owner. Owner probably doesn’t even know! We should steal it.
I see. And a bit of tartan on the top? Fine. Rack looking good. Knees a bit knobbly. Still fine though. You would.
You would never be expected to get your head around it, so don’t even try – I would never put that much pressure on you. Puff Daddy has just launched his new fragrance called “I AM KING” which falls under his Sean John clothing brand. He felt it necessary to make a 5 minute mini-movie […]
We recently covered a couple cases of various individuals wearing helmets in public (here and here). The phenomena and social inadequacy seems to have spread further – this time, air travel. Pete L’s mate sent him these pics he took somewhere in the East, boarding a Vietnam Airlines plane. Come now Absolutely no problem […]
Sunday brought the final day of the Movember initiative – which was celebrated with a day of bowls at the Fresnaye Bowling Club. A stunning day for it, what! But it wasn’t just a DAY at the bowling club, it was a chance to walk away with The Balls of Glory. The […]
I am absolutely FINE with these new pics of post-baby Jessica Alba in the new 2009 Campari Calendar. I just LOVE Campari’s vibe – the logo, the colours.. And the UMBRELLAS! Like you see in those old Bond films. At those coffee shops, with men and women dressed in linen, wearing boating shoes.. […]
So yesterday I received an email from one of my special readers, informing me of the shit storm brewing over at gotravel24. Someone had written an article entitled “I Love Camps Bay” (good one) and gave a breakdown of why they enjoyed Camps Bay and the various places to see and things to do. The […]
Spotted this in Kloof this morning on a way to a meeting with incredibly powerful people. I thought I would follow through and check out the Bible reference. This is what Matthew 6:33 beholds: “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” […]
I read and enjoyed the original Is it Just Me or is Everything Shit, which I was given as a gift, and it remains satisfying reading for guests and the various Heads of State who visit The Safe House. There was also a local one that was published in the last couple of years called […]
I made up a saying a while ago and it goes, “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.” Once again, another one of my sayings are proven, as you will see below. Earlier on we brought you breaking news of the bus on fire on Hertzog Blvd. in central Cape Town. Those pics came, as usual, from […]
Oh my good Lord! We have just received these pictures live from one of our many MANY intrepid readers who send in shit that matters. Taken in Cape Town city off Hertzog Boulevard, this, like, JUST happened. Check it out. Feeling hot hot hot.. Spontaneous combustion? There’s not much more that you can […]
Now, I’m sure we’ve chatted before about this. Or maybe we merely touched on it. And this is the subject of numberplates. The CA plates versus the WP plates, to be more specific. There seems to be a bit of confusion amongst foreigners and locals alike, when it comes to the various plates. People refer […]
I received the following email from The Good Doctor, who also happens to be one of the intrepid organisers of South Africa’s Mo-Vember cause: “Men are being called to participate in a playful awareness month to highlight health issues specific to men, and raise money for the CANSA organization, simply by growing their moustaches during […]
I am “between” laptops at the moment and am using an old beast (not too old – running XP) I had locked in a cupboard far far away. Apart from the trip down memory lane, courtesy of the old pictures and videos I found on the hard drive (not very good quality – the size […]
With a fridge filled with Jack Black upon arrival, I realised The Cape Grace were on the right track and should therefore experience even more of the 2oceansvibe. That is why I ordered Butlers Pizza on Friday night for myself – and threw in another human-height pile of pizzas for the Cape Grace staff. […]
Pavlov’s dogs learnt faster than this. Nice helmet Your friend’s balls are also very impressive Our social etiquette teachings are clearly far from over, as the exact same two cyclists from the last improper cyclist behaviour article are spotted again at Giovanni’s – and again the one fellow doesn’t understand the no-helmet rule. […]
The other morning’s festivities, which included The Muse getting her car clamped at my current residence, The Cape Grace Hotel in Cape Town; resulted in a great response from the 2oceansvibe community. Including this BEAUTIFUL photograph, taken by the equally beautiful Nicole B. Absolutely fine Now that’s the kind of sign The Muse […]
Yes, interestingly enough, I managed to get my hands on the Country Road 2008 Summer Catalogue . And, I tell you what, I was glad that I did. Please enjoy the absolutely ANGEL they are using for the entire ladies section! Helloooo, my laydeh! Hey!? Are you ok with that? And please, there […]
Whilst Martin Johnson is probably still reeling from the pounding he got on Saturday, it seems rugby in England has managed to excel in other forms. Remember in August when I told you about the inaugural Rugby Expo? Ja, well it happened – and it was a RAGING success by all accounts. With […]
2oceansvibe Character and ex-KFM morning-show disc jockey (try saying that with a straight face), Nic Marais (AKA The DJ), has gone off to study law at Yale. People are usually pretty impressed when I tell them that, after they ask me why he is no longer hosting Cape Town’s biggest breakfast show. That’s when I […]
I had so much to tell you, which I will be focusing on later. As you know, I moved into my suite at the Cape Grace hotel on Saturday. “Our 2 Bedroom Suites epitomise luxurious home-from-home comforts and are ideal for families or friends travelling together. These spacious suites feature two private en-suite bedrooms and […]
It’s very important that you know that the 2009 Pirelli Calendar was introduced to the public in Berlin, just this week! Models – hanging outElephants – enjoying it Now for those of you who need to polish up your GK, this is exactly what the Pirelli calendar is all about (Wikipedia): The calendar […]
Whilst one may deem it a tad rude, one should also remember that it does still fall into a category which we call, “quality humour.” Clever [thanks charl]
November 20 (Gloomberg) — The Somali pirates, renegade Somalis known for hijacking ships for ransom in the Gulf of Aden, are negotiating a purchase of Citigroup. The pirates would buy Citigroup with new debt and their existing cash stockpiles, earned most recently from hijacking numerous ships, including most recently a $200 million Saudi […]
Pray First. Ok, and then what? [thanks lotte]
I really wish we had these things in my day in London. My God, we hoarded a lot of crap. I remember carting a life-size Scooby Doo cardboard cut-out from digs to digs, all over London – along with the other crap (larva lamp included). I never did see the irony in boasting that the […]
