“Living the holiday” is more than just chilling out at the beach, it’s about engaging with pre-approved people and companies who don’t add stress to your life. … So back to the story, I was approached by a company called Ammo a few weeks ago with a mobile payment solution they have developed, allowing you to pay for goods and services with your PHONE.
The marketers and advertisers out there have tried all sorts of methods to get horny youngsters to wear a condom. This is the first time I’ve seen them using graffiti to get the message across. And I think they did a bloody good job. This ad was shown on French TV channels. Reminds me of […]
It’s not often that I give away trade secrets on how to be an awesome individual. But when I see the lack of knowledge resulting in pain for you, my treasured 2oceansvibers, then I realise that I have an obligation to tell you. Take for instance my special tuna mayonnaise that I make The Dude […]
My buddy David Grier is in the mix again – and this time is slightly different to his earlier vibes, when he completed the first ever joint continuous run of the Great Wall of China, some 4000km in 98 days. Ja, I thought that might refresh your memory! So check this out – he’s taking […]
Well we’ve hit the 100 day mark, before the 2010 World Cup kicks off in South Africa. There is so much to look forward to and we, here at 2oceansvibe, are electric with antipasta anticipation! Sorry, I was in Italiano mode back there, because I’ve managed to get my grubby little paws on these shots […]
Iron Mike sends me stuff from time to time. He’s improved a lot, although he has, on more than one occasion, been guilty of the cardinal sin of sending me content that has already featured on 2oceansvibe. Punishable by death, if I so wished. But it’s hard to put out a hit on Iron Mike, […]
That’s how we were rolling at the BMW International Polo on Saturday, as we drowned in oysters and champagne. It was my first polo game, as we watched SA demolish take on Italy. Everyone was there, from Ryk and Vanessa to Michelle and Roxy – not to mention my buddies Julian and Wimpie from Top […]
It’s like this the whole time when I don’t cruise with a BlackBerry. Things like this panoramic photograph which I took and stitched on my iPhone, happen the whole freaking time! Go to Newlands. Field looks awesome. What a vibe. Want to capture it. Hey, should I capture it with my free internet access, or […]
I gotta say it, Spling isn’t far off the mark with their observation of SA’s top online shopping destination, Kalahari.net – stating “Kalahari Gets a Whiff of The 2OceansVibe.” Spling asks the question : When was the last time you spotted a gorgeous woman wearing nothing but cut-off jeans? I don’t think I ever have… […]
I certainly won’t be missing an opportunity to meet the great man and hopefully raise our concerns and get his views on various cycling topics often raised here on 2oceansvibe. You know, from cycling through red traffic lights, to balls exposed in front of children and the wearing of cycling helmets whilst dinging. But, you […]
You will recall the other day we mobilised the troops and asked you to head through to Food24 and vote for Lee Ann and Kirsten in the “Hot Chef” competition. This is the vibe we went for: Oh my goodness look at this! Kirsten and Lee Ann, our little spunks from Miss K Food Cafe […]
Cape Town’s obsession for meetings is a worldwide trend, but, given the existence of this website I’m about to show, so his the hatred for unnecessary (the majority) meetings. Catherine S sent in this absolute beauty: www.meetordie.com So I filled in the details of a typical waste-of-time-are-you-really-this-bored meeting that gets thrown around this town. Meetings […]
We had an absolute blast yesterday at the Waterfront as the likes of District 9’s Vanessa Haywood, Just Jinjer’s Ard Matthews and scores of fans surrounded Bob’s wooden cage, as Ard serenaded him with their latest single, Milk & Honies. The performance was broadcast live streaming on 2oceansvibe and a big thanks goes out to […]
Seriously. Live At Don Valley Stadium Sheffield 1993. We were THERE, man! Well, not really. Not that is makes a difference when you wrote half the song.. If you’ve got love in your sights Watch out, love bites When you make love, do you look in the mirror? Who do you think of? Does he […]
With the Rotherham Diet gaining massive momentum across South Africa, a lot of people ask me how I “roll,” when it comes to fast food. I usually stumble around the question, trying to give examples of how, exactly, I roll – always wishing I had a visual clue. Luckily, thanks to The Cool Hunter and […]
Is this REALLY news? I would be celebrating and popping the champagne, if the news came as a surprise. But it doesn’t. I mean, is it wrong to expect these kind of accolades from 2oceansvibe brands and sponsors? Are we not perhaps numbed by the success of the associated brands and advertisers and people on […]
Really? Well suck me sideways! I gotta be honest, it doesn’t get much easier to find deals around Cape Town. My boys at www.nobucks.co.za have absolutely NAILED IT with their website which documents where and when various booze and food specials are going on around Cape Town. I simply clicked today’s date and it gave […]
Finally – the day is upon us! After months of staring at the clock, we are days away from Sunday, which sees Just Jinjer playing LIVE at Kirstenbosch for the Summer Festivals vibe they’ve got going there. The band came back from playing Durban this last weekend and guys are saying it was the greatest […]
2oceansvibe Character, “The Surfer” (Anthony Fox) is fast becoming the number one surf photographer in South Africa as we see his latest reel appearing on non-other than online surfer’s bible, Magic Seaweed. 32 photographs were showcased in a thorough photo-report format. It was pretty well received to, with over 120,000 views in the first two […]
Aaah yeah, that’s right… it’s all happening on MARCH 19! You know the party is going to be big when the venue was chosen specifically for its size – so as to accommodate the sheer number of people! What am I talking, you ask? Oh nothing, just “THE VIBE” – a party in Camps Bay […]
It’s not altogether surprising that former 2oceansvibe Weather Girls model, Genevieve Morton, has been spotted in the newly released US Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue. She did absolutely kill it in that episode (here and here) we did in Camps Bay. The 2oceansvibe Weather Girls is the same show which recently featured Peroni model, Landi Swanepoel. […]
Oh my God! You.are.going.to.plutz! Louis Vuitton have announced the launch of a new women’s gifts catalogue with a romantic twist – just in time for Valentine’s Day! The timing couldn’t be better – I mean it’s one thing knowing where you will be spending Valentine’s Day, but what does one buy? Now that’s a different […]
If you’re in or around your early thirties, you’ll have fond memories of Will Smith’s hit TV series, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. There’s no mistaking those opening lines, “Now this is a story all about how my life got twisted and turned upside down.” Everyone new the words to that song. Seriously, it […]
Did you buy a SAX Appeal Magazine today? If you did then you can get R20 off your next Butlers pizza! But it’s only for the next week to you better move your arlee! Oh, and if you didn’t get a SAX appeal, you can order one with your next Butlers Pizza – also for […]
To do it right you need some essential skills. For me, my “skill set” is pretty vast, to say the least. To begin with, I’m pretty quick off the mark. I beat Craig Lorden (The Lord) in a foot race in London a few years ago, and Craig is well known for his pace. I […]
Some time ago I was nattering about those maximum security prisoners in the Philippine city of Cebu (one L, two P’s… interesting) who did a mass dance formation vibe to Jump by the Pointer Sisters (the ultimate running/gym song – FACT), as well as Thriller, by the late great Michael Jackson. Shamon! Anyway, they’ve done […]
You’ll remember how recently I told you about my new Ferragamo shades I got from Sunglass Hut. Well I’m both excited and embarrassed to tell you that they have been sidelined for the moment. I’m sure I will go back to them at some point, but for now I simply have no option but to […]
2oceansviber, Craig H, directed me to this absolutely stunning little website. It’s called The Oatmeal (theoatmeal.com) and it seems to cover the most random (yet well-researched) topics you could ever imagine, all presented graphically, in the most beautifully designed cartoons. Take for instance, “Five Reason Pigs Are More Awesome Than You:” Then they proceed to […]
If only she was just “The Peroni Girl,” then it would be less confusing. Unfortunately Landi Swanepoel is also “The Guess Girl,” so please pay attention if you don’t want to get left behind. This week brings us the first 2oceansvibe Weather Girls Show of 2010, and boy do we have a cracker for you! […]
This is very funny. I’ve been sent it by about five billion people so far. I better get it up, before my inbox explodes. Not bad. Not bad at all.. [thanks warrick]
