CAPE TOWN DAIM CHOCOLATE SHORTAGE CONTINUES
23 Mar 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 8 Comments
Those of you who know and understand the orgasmic flavoursome proportions of Rotherham-diet-approved Daim (also called “Dime” in some countries) chocolates, have probably been sharing the pain that has been running through my body for the last few months. I had a fix for a while, after receiving this incredible bag of mini-Daims from Los […]

YOUR NEW VOICEMAIL MESSAGE
23 Mar 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 5 Comments
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 […]

WELL DONE CAPE TOWN
20 Mar 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 5 Comments
Apparently yesterday was an absolute joke at the Roeland Street Fire Department in Cape Town. Witnesses have confirmed that the support from various Cape Town brands was so overwhelming, they could have “opened a small shop if they wanted.” This, following the radical fires that hit Table Mountain on Wednesday night / Thursday morning. THAT’S […]

Those of you who know and appreciate Eddie Izzard will be very pleased to hear that he is on Twitter. This announcement comes only a week after I told you that Christopher Walken is also on Twitter and twits (tweets? twats?) the most hilarious tweets (twats?) on a daily basis. Eddie Izzard is on Twitter […]

NEW BABOON BREED IN NOORDHOEK
09 Feb 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 4 Comments
This one really tickled me. Sent in by a loyal reader. The guys who put up signs in Noordhoek have clearly been having one too many pots at The Toad before they head off to work! Very graceful baboons Now available in Noordhoek I’d get on the blower to Noordhoek mayor “The Insurance Broker” […]

READER BELIEVES MICHELLE OBAMA WORKS FOR HIM
09 Feb 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 10 Comments
We received a very solid and backed up theory sent in by 2oceansvibe character, Iron Mike . Whilst the jury is certainly still out as to whether or not Michelle Obama is masquerading as his Domestic Executive, his points are particularly strong. Hi Seth, I know two things about you: 1. You are connected […]

GUMTREE ADVERTISER WILL PAY FOR DRINKING BUDDY
05 Feb 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 7 Comments
This Gumtree ad has been spotted and should attract the right candidate as a starting point to “living the holiday.” Finally, an end to the corporate world you are getting so tired of! For me the best part is without a doubt the last line – “No chancers please.” I wonder what would […]

PLUMBERS AND FISH SHOPS
05 Feb 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 2 Comments
I took my camera for a ride on my scooter the other day and took both these shots on Sea Point Main Road within 5 minutes of each other. THAT’S how crazy it is around here. He’s a plumber – get it? And this little BEAUTY of a fish shop. The name is […]

GET YOURSELF OUT THERE
04 Feb 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
It’s all about how you package yourself. You got to start thinking about Brand YOU . Take Sunny here, for example. He’s taken it to the next level. And not only has he put a picture on the side of his car, he’s put FIVE. Different styles, different gestures. All saying one thing, “I’m flexible […]

SANDY BAY BEACH FREAK OUT
29 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Did you enjoy that sub-heading? “Lewd conduct the order of the day!” Hah! Who talks like that? Anyway I got an email from The Fruit Farmer, who has an amazing skill of finding local content with a bizarre twist. Always humorous, he gave me a link to an article and asked if I felt the […]

BICYCLING MAGAZINE HAS A STYLE GURU
28 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
It’s so cool that Bicycling Magazine has a fashion/style editor, called “STYLEMAN.” It’s even better that a recent issue rasies the question we brought up with regards to cyclists wearing helmets whilst dining in restaurants/cafes and eateries around Cape Town. You’ll find STYLEMAN’S reply might hamper his chances of working for Vogue. www.bicycling.co.za […]

THE END OF THE ROAD
27 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
We’ve brought you a pant load of number plate articles and we’re getting what I call “license-lash” when you’ve seen too many stupid numberplates and you can’t do any more. Unless, of course, they’re EXCEPTIONAL . Unless they’re BEYOND human thought. You’ll remember (here, here, here, here and here) my main issue being about people […]

THE DROP KNEE HANDSHAKE
27 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Ok, I’ve been feeling the pulse of Cape Town and am very pleased to see more and more people (girls, and boys alike) have realised the coolness of the “Slap, Snap & Fisties” handshake. Again, your belief in 2oceansvibe has resulted in you being happier and, more importantly, cooler – the way I like to […]

MASS MEDIA HUMILIATES CRYING CHILD
26 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I’ve obviously misunderstood everything in my life thus far. Because – for me – the idea of there being a photo of me crying on the first day of school, plastered all over the front page of one of the countries biggest selling newspapers, does not appeal. I was ever so slightly disturbed when I […]

BUTLERS PIZZA DELIVERED TO HERMANUS
23 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
It’s quite evident that I spent last weekend in Hermanus. I told you about the sea rescue and I told you about the cock guy with the flashing blue light on the way there. But what I did NOT tell you, was about the Butlers Pizza that I ordered and had delivered to Hermanus, over […]

TAXIJAM HOOKS UP YOAV SADAN
22 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
A couple months back I told you about Taxijam, the incredible new underground music video concept featuring artists playing in the back of a local taxi. Started by 2oceansvibe Character The Film Guy (Richard) and his cousin Simon, it’s gaining rapid momentum and has featured the likes of 2oceansvibe’s favourite The Dirty Skirts and our […]

CAPE MINSTRELS TRAFFIC CHAOS
21 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I thoroughly enjoyed this tongue-in-cheek story about Capetonians and our beloved Cape Minstrel annual carnival. With teeth.. CAPE TOWN – author unknown Over 300 Cape Minstrels are in hospital this morning after taking part in a traditional street carnival to celebrate January 2 without realizing that the day was not a public holiday.

HERMANUS SEA RESCUE DRAMA AT LANGBAAI
19 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I tell you, it’s been QUITE a weekend in Hermanus. When I stopped to do some writing at the end of it all I didn’t think I had anything to write about. But, if you think about it, two people nearly drowning and being rescued by a Capetonian IS something we need to chat about! […]

ANOTHER JACK OF ALL TRADES
16 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
This is the third Jack of all trades article we’ve written, following the incredibly well received original two (here and here). I assure you the following image is genuine. Surely there are laws as to what can and cannot be written on flyers given out in public? “Get promoted” – just like that! […]

NEW COOL WAYS TO SAY HI
16 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I was hanging with G-Man at his pad yesterday and we decided that now would be very good time to introduce you to a new way to say hi. We think you’re ready for it. High-fives are out (just ask Ryan Seacrest), and so are fisties. That’s why we’re going for the ” SLAP, SNAP […]

THE MISSING LINK – CA 2
12 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
So we’ve chatted about various car number plates on these pages and, in particular, the pretenders out there, specifically those who include CA at the beginning of their WP plates (here and here). As suggested before, the idea is to get as close as possible to the purest of the pure – the single digit […]

SEA STATUE ADDS SPICE

Well this is just great! I received an email from Warren L, telling me about some statue on a rock and this accompanying iol article. Large statue keeps beachgoers guessing January 08 2009 at 11:05AM By Michelle Jones Alien. Tribute. Mime artist. Religious statement. Mummy. A gift from God. These are just some of […]

LA PERLA, CAPRICE, AND BEYOND
08 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I’ll be honest, it’s actually 10 at night and I’ve timed this article to come out in the morning, to grace you with more pearls of glory. Good morning! It all started at 1pm, you see. At La Perla. A boys lunch. It was me, “The Big H” and “The Dude” (fresh from his Kika-Sack […]

GROOT CONSTANTIA ATTACK
07 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Just when we thought 2009 was going smoothly, this happens! The bizarre helmet religious war continues, as we take in images from this, an unprecedented attack at a Groot Constantia wine tasting. Readers are warned that the following image may cause vomiting. An incredibly thick-skinned cyclist parades indoors with his helmet on Now […]

WHAT MADE YOU DO IT?
06 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Wow, I tell you, I didn’t expect it to go this far. And don’t think that you’ve seen this one before, because you haven’t. Not on these esteemed pages anyway. You will remember our various car articles and, in particular, this one about the Ferrari driving around with a CA 1 WP numberplate. That was […]

THE FIVE TYPES OF NEW YEAR’S EVE PARTIES
30 Dec 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Personally I have made no plans yet for New Year. If I was in Cape Town then it would definitely be either Caprice or The Mount Nelson. But I’m in Hermanus and everyone is looking at each other for answers. That includes the two youngsters who were a tad premature with their New Year celebrations […]
