Ciro and Gavin test drove the new BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe. So if you’re in the market for a car in this category, or if you’re ever so slightly interested in what BMW have done with this diesel engine (performance in line with old M5s!) and why you consider the 4-door, check out this quick review.

It’s a big, rich wine and it’s a bargain. I prefer the latter to the former, but it’s such a deal I thought it worth writing about. Everybody loves a good bargain. That’s the appeal of flea-markets and second-hand shops. I recently found awesome steam-punk styled salt ‘n pepper grinders for R100. The joy of […]
SARU have released new laws regarding concussions and side-of-the-field assessments. How exactly will this work and does it not open up the chance of abuse?

Malta. Middle of the Mediterranean Sea. Occupied for hundreds of years by marauding Ottoman Turks, Crusaders, the British – you name it. Some country you know has probably made an attempt at conquering the cluster of three islands – Malta, Gozo and Comino. Malta is not a destination that you think of when contemplating a […]

Two wines delivered to me recently seem to show the two sides of South African wine at the moment sits. At least on the supermarket shelf side of things. The one showed progression, innovation (sort of), deliciousness and consideration; the other was a lesson in the typical, the normal and the unsurprising.
Okes, it is time to impress. It’s National Braai Day on 24 September, and my good friend, Jan Braai, who started the initiative for all of you, has written a book called Fireworks to help you braai more like he would.

It seems we are on to a good thing with these little wine trip columns. So here is another one. It’s in a similar area to the last one, but just a touch further down the road. This week I’ll be giving you a guide to the Hemel en Aarde Valley.
Michael O’Leary of Ryanair – the world’s most profitable airline – says that Ryanair does three things well, no more, no less: “We arrive and leave on time, we give good fares [read: competitive], we do not lose your bags”. It’s a winning formula!

I kind of dig the flat screen keyboard on the iPad, but a lot of people don’t. I like watching movies and reading mags on the iPad, other people don’t. Some people like using it more documents and presentations and writing emails etc. If YOU are one of those people, then you will LOVE this […]

2oceansvibe’s bi-weekly sports columnist, Sean Wilson, considers the records Hashim Amla and the Proteas may have been able to achieve had they been playing a “timeless” test match. Haroon Lorgat, the recently deposed ICC CEO, suggested that the future World Test Championship may be decided by means of a “timeless” test (i.e. the contest will last […]
Look at our man Victor, all grown up! South Africa’s favourite beard isn’t falling out of the international spotlight anytime soon, apparently.

With fellow brand ambassadors like Shaquille […]
John John Florence is one of the most exciting surfers to emerge on the professional surfing scene in recent years. Kai Linder got the young Hawaiian into the 2oceansVibe Radio studio in Cape Town to find out what he’s been up while he’s been in South Africa.
It is patently obvious that the brand of rugby that the Bulls play is not the way forward for the Springboks. It is vital that Heyneke Meyer ensures that the personnel he selects for the Rugby Championship can play a game that includes intelligence and momentum created from flair and creativity.
Everything must go digital. That’s what it feels like anyway. I reckon if the Luddites were around today they’d probably have blogs. I have had two digital vinous experiences over the last week or so that I thought were pretty interesting. The ubiquitous “digital”. You want to go on a trip? Blog about it. Hey […]
