What a fun show it was this morning! We gave out a ton of Havaianas slops and Sunglass Hut vouchers, we celebrated the life of Michael Jackson on this, the one year anniversary of his death. And by celebrated, I mean we played two of his tracks on VINYL – because that is very much […]

I’ll be honest, I’m settling into the iPad quite nicely and starting to incorporate it into everyday life.

The 2010 World Cup is well underway and emotions are running high – and it’s not just to do with the football! The latest entertainment industry skandaal to circulate the internet and the airwaves is the case of SA band, The Parlotones.

All protocol was relaxed as we granted one photographer and virtual-tour expert (Panascape) unprecedented access to my suite at the Cape Royale hotel.

“They” come out with hundreds of thousands of new apps every month and, very often, they’re rubbish – often making use of some of the iPhones hardware unnecessarily. Not this time.

We don’t use the word “magic” enough. Our folks do – but we’ve kind of dropped it.
