PARADISE, LILOS AND JUMPING CASTLES
20 Oct 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
It’s been a while since I visited Beta Beach, and quite some time since the mad-man attacked me with an umbrella (pronounced “madmin” for extra annoyance). So Saturday was spent getting back into the groove. Saturday – very kak The prize for making a mockery of the day goes to this intrepid fellow who nailed […]

2OCEANSVIBE GETS HACKED
07 Oct 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I received an sms on Saturday night from Jason as I wandered around the Rocking The Daisies festival (click here for 24’s photo gallery), figuring out how to break through security and dance on the main stage when Goldfish were playing. It turns out someone else was induging in a little security breach of their […]

NUCLEAR POWERED AIRCRAFT CARRIER ARRIVES IN CAPE TOWN TODAY
02 Oct 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean… This is pretty hard core news. Iol reports that the National Nuclear Regulator has given permission for the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) nuclear powered aircraft carrier to drop anchor in Table Bay. Sick! Maybe we can plug Eskom into the boat and power Cape Town for a couple of years. […]

TIK TESTS AVAILABLE AT CAMPS BAY 7-ELEVEN
02 Oct 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I was surprised, amused and concerned (all at the same time) when I spotted this TIK test in the local 7-Eleven. Or, “Friendly” Store as it is actually called. It doesn’t make a difference what the place is called; it will never deter from the fact that it has always, and will always, have the […]

SHOTGUNS, LA-Z-BOYS AND R5.7 MILLION
01 Oct 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Don’t know if you caught this in The Times last month with the sub heading, “Accused said he was going to sort it out ‘the Irish way’“ A Western Cape pensioner who shot a man in the knee in a fit of rage over slow service has been handed a R5.7-million bill by the […]

DANCING MANNEQUINS
22 Sep 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I’m not sure if it was their intention, but I could barely breathe from laughter as I watched a guy in a hoodie dancing in the window at the Apple Store in Cape Town’s V&A Waterfront shopping centre, a few weeks back. I knelt down on my knees and thanked God that I had my […]

MYSTERIOUS BOAT
22 Sep 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
This weekend brought another dollop of sunshine, beauty, weed, sex and general spice. Not least of which being this pleasure craft of sorts spotted in the bay. Now I’ve seen a lot of incredibly spicy boats and yachts along the shores of Camps Bay and Clifton in my time, but this is the first time […]

LAMBO GETS FOAMED
01 Sep 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I assume you caught the news that the Cape has been pummeled with high winds, seas and foam content. I do enjoy the funny foam that the sea sprays over Sea Point. I also enjoy the way people embrace it. Funny man Nice one. But then check out this Lambo owner who emboerrissed […]

CAPE TOWN MAKES MONOPOLY WORLD EDITION
25 Aug 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Earlier on in the year there was much excitement during the voting process for the new Monopoly World Edition game board. Cape Town was a contender and the likes of 2oceansvibe and other influential media outlets pushed people to vote. Well I think everyone can give themselves a pat on the back – Cape Town […]

GOOD COP, BAD COP
14 Aug 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I laughed out loud when I received this in my “inbox” from Shawn B, taken at the Canal Walk car park. And punished.. That’s quite emboerrissing. Emboerboer. Emboert. Brrt. (high pitched)

THE WALKING-READING CHICK
13 Aug 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I dig this chick’s vibe. I check her nearly every day walking from Camps Bay along Victoria Road to Bantry Bay and back. It’s incredible – she hardly ever looks up and never walks into anyone. Like those people that read at gym whilst cycling or running, only more tricky. And cooler. And healthier. […]

I’VE GOT AN AUDI R8 PARKED DOWNSTAIRS
19 May 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
A local company has decided, for one reason or another, to lend me a brand new Audi R8 for a while. The guy called me on Friday and asked if I would mind. I’m usually hesitant to take up these kind of offers, as you don’t know what they want from you in return. But, […]

THE “KEEPING IT REAL” TOUR, 2008
07 Apr 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I decided to embark on a journey – a holiday of sorts, to the "other-other side." Whilst the Southern Suburbs crew refer to Cape Town city and the Atlantic Seaboard as "the other side" and vice versa, it becomes confusing telling your friends in either of those locations that you’re on "the other side," when […]

A MAD-MAN ATTACKED ME ON BETA BEACH
18 Nov 2007 by Seth Rotherham / 2 Comments
After a wonderful night at Caprice, following their ever successful Caprice Volleyball Day, we were treated to another pearler from our Lord Jesus Christ in the form of today’s perfect day (late 20’s, no cloud, no wind. Very sexual). I packed the perfect beach bag and took Libby (my scooter) down to The Strip to […]

SPRINGBOK OPEN-BUS PARADE MAYHEM
29 Oct 2007 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
John Smit’s phone doesn’t have MMS so he was unable to send us a pic at this exact point in time, as the Springbok bus is currently making its way around Cape Town. I asked if he thought it was going well and he replied, "so far I would say it’s going well." Clearly tongue-in-cheek, […]

VINYL RECORD PLAYERS ON THE COMEBACK
17 Oct 2007 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Umm, I’m listening to a record at the moment. No, I mean it – a record. A vinyl record. Not the kind that DJ’s use when they "mix" and "scratch". No, no. I’m talking about the one used on the classic home vinyl record player. It feels nice. I bought it last week after accepting […]

PRIORITIES
11 Oct 2007 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
It’s all there – you just have to get to it. Like with your car or something like that. I don’t know – make a fucking plan. Took these pics for you around 13h00 today, Thursday 11 October, 2007 – the Thursday everyone has been talking about since Monday…. Where are you?

“MY BAD” IS YOUR BAD
28 Sep 2007 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
"Where were you yesterday? I waited an hour for you. I thought we agreed to meet for lunch?" "Oh, God, yes I totally forgot. Sorry. My bad." I fucking beg your pardon? YOUR bad? What in God’s name are you talking about? What the fuck is a bad? Is this some sort of experimental social […]

SETH RECEIVES MESSAGE FROM GOD
17 Sep 2007 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Is it just me, or does this stuff happen to all of you? It’s like The Truman Show or something. I feel like I’m being hit with these mind-blowing human-interaction incidents WAY too often. Just a couple of weeks ago I received a vision in the form of an angel wearing my orange Polo jersey […]

2OCEANSVIBE DECLARES SUMMER OPEN
17 Sep 2007 by Seth Rotherham / 2 Comments
Oh yes! Crack open the shampiz, blow the dust off your shades, rub in the piz and promise not to behave – summer is here my baby and there’s nothing you can do about it! It’s quite evident that summer has begun Camps Bay was pretty empty when I found myself tip-toeing onto the beach, […]

WHEN YOU’RE ON TOP OF YOUR GAME
28 Aug 2007 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I received an mms on my phone (Well, it’s the HTC TYTN, so it’s more a lifestyle than a phone) from The Marketer on Sunday morning. It was a picture he must have just taken on his phone (also a lifestyle). It looked something like this (click to enlarge) : "Octopus" – read the message […]

THIS SEASON’S MUST HAVE ITEM
28 Aug 2007 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
We’re doing stealth-cool this season, boys and girls, and those in the know have already agreed on this season’s most sought after item. The Carlucci’s shopping bag. With the overflow of Louis and Chanel on the Atlantic Seaboard it will be the hard-to-find locally exclusive, absurdly cool, distinctive symbol of of things understatedly hot – […]

THE SUNSET IS NOT THE POINT
23 Aug 2007 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Everybody knows that it is not often that one truly captures the sunset in a photograph. People who show holiday photos of sunset after sunset, do not realise that they mean pretty much fuckall to the person they’re showing them to. It means the world to the guys who went on holiday. Like this photo […]

THE CAPE TOWN FRIDAY RULE
17 Nov 2006 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
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 […]
