Not for one second do I claim to operate in a typo free zone, but neither do I fall into the “traditional” and “mass” media category – a place where “serious” journalists operate. At the same time, you would be very hard pressed to find a headline typo on these pages. Which brings me to […]
Wine fans throughout the country are urged to pick up the latest copy of Wine Magazine and to cast their eyes over to the back page of this, the April issue. That is where you will find us, in all our glory, raising a toast to you. You should find the interview suitably amusing. * […]
Look, I’m aware that I give “hope” and that I’m a “role model” to many hot men and women around the world, but it never struck me that I was a “leader” as well. Hell, that’s bloody marvelous, man! Get yourselves a copy of the latest issue of Leadership Magazine and quietly enjoy our little […]
I’ll be hanging with Bob Skinstad (also known as The Character Formerly Known As The Loose Forward) during his 8am-9am Saturday morning slot on KFM (94.5fm). That’s tomorrow morning, for those of you who are still slightly sleepy. We go way back, Bob and I, and the banter is bound to get you going as […]
Our most recent Mango Airlines Magazine competition on 2oceansvibe is coming along beautifully – rewarding every correct entry with a FREE Butlers pizza and a FREE voucher for the Euromillions Lottery! You will recall we told you the following: We’re giving away a free Butlers pizza and a free Euromillions Lottery voucher to everyone who […]
Quite happy to have their two cents featured in the comments section of the “defamatory” articles we wrote, Darnell International have involved their lawyers and are now demanding that the articles (here and here) be taken down. Here is the letter from Darnell’s lawyers: Click image to enlarge letter The fact that it is number […]
They also love it when a plan comes together.
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 […]
It is completely BEYOND me that any “traditional media” publication could do a first-hand report (with photographs) on a lottery winner and not check the lottery numbers against the winning jackpot numbers. And not just to check the numbers, but also to have the most basic of fuck-up-sensors in their heads, telling them to check […]
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 […]
A stunning moment the other night on SuperSport, as ex-Manchester United goal keeper, Gary Bailey discussed Former England football captain John Terry and his game in general. A wry smile shined across Gazza’s face, acknowledging fully the double meaning in his words – what with John Terry’s sexual appetite for his team mate’s girlfriends and […]
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. […]
The beauty of this Man TV series for me is not the show itself, but more the fact that it is shot in Cape Town; and in Cape Town “everybody knows everybody.” So it’s one thing that we can watch a “reality show” about these guys on TV but I’m more interested in things once […]
The Advertising Guy lives in Los Angeles and he has a buddy over there in the States, Greg Szmurlo, who has made a website to do with his three favourite things – Tom Selleck, Waterfalls and Sandwiches. It’s called Selleck Waterfall Sandwich. And when I say it is “to do” with those three things, I […]
That’s right my beautiful angels. It’s the 9th of February, 2010. You know what that means… 9 02 10.. 9021Oooooh!!! I can’t say much more than that – it’s just so fucking awesome.. Happy 90210 day! [thanks simon]
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 […]
Gotta love the Aussies – anything for a bit of tail, especially during working hours. Not shy to take a risk, one financial desk worker had a browse over some naked pics, while a colleague of his was doing a live broadcast in the next room – with the TVcamera’s getting a full view of […]
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 […]
Just got sent this video showing the hilarious Corne & Twakkie (of “The Most Amazing Show” fame) snatching the mic on stage (a la Kanye West!) and doing what they do best at Kenilworth race course this weekend! Heart FM’s Phat Joe was meant to go on next but ran for the hills after being […]
The New York based VICE Media company has launched a new broadband television network called VBS.TV. The footage they’ve got has been blowing a lot of people’s minds. They’re not shy to get down and dirty in some of the world’s most dangerous environments – like Liberia and Colombia. It’s basically identical to www.2oceansvibe.tv, except […]
In case you missed the headline board on the roads last week. The Times seem to be finding their sign boards just as restrictive as SMS and Twitter – making use of the acronym “LOL,” which, as you may well be aware of, stands for Laugh Out Loud. They want you to know that they’re […]
You’ve heard the rumours and now you can take it as gospel – SA’s first REAL edgy reality show launched last week. MAN TV, the 13-episode reality show following four single men around Cape Town as they try to pick up chicks and explain what goes on in their heads is sure to impress. I’ve […]
Please, dear God, do not see this as the start of a trend. We do NOT post lost dog ads on 2oceansvibe. But I just thought the rareness of receiving a lost dog ad in my inbox would be enough reason for this “one-off.” It’s very “niche,” don’t you think? And I am SO niche […]
A new website, by the name of www.stephaniekohler.co.za has gone viral in South Africa’s Twitter universe. From what initially like someone’s own personal webpage, the person to which the domain name refers, “Stephanie Kohler,” has nothing to do with the website whatsoever, other than being the target of an online attack. Retribution for alleged fraudulent […]
In November I alerted you about the Seth Rotherham feature in the ELLE Magazine. I didn’t publish it in full on these pages, as the magazine was still in circulation. It is now off the shelves and has coincidentally become one of their most successful issues ever. Weird.. especially with that issue of YOU Magazine […]
Have you ever typed your name into Google, followed by “is” and then a space? You really should, it’s fairly hilarious. Google uses historical searches for similar phrases and gives quickview suggestions are what you more than likely want to search for – thus saving you nano seconds of your time. It’s those little things […]
Boom! Just like that, your day has changed for the better. But not just this day, I’m talking about the days 28-31 January, 2010, which sees God’s favourite TV show coming to Cape Town. That’s right, my sweet smelling friends, Jeremy Clarkson and the crew are stopping by as part of their Top Gear Live […]
To say 2oceansvibe is fond of Rachel Bilson, would be an understatement. I’m not going to get into the reasons why, or the moment we all fell in love with her on TV Series – “THE OC,” we all know what happened. We all felt it. And now she is growing up. Perfectly.. Actress/hot thing […]
No I’m not joking. It’s got Lily Allen on the cover and page 78 is all mine! Feel free to tear it out and rub it all over your body. God knows, you won’t be the first.. I’ve been doing it for days! Besides photos including that now iconic pic of me as a child, […]
Well they can keep going the angle that they’re heading because Cosmo have pleased me NO-END over the past few days. It was just last week that I found myself perched in the front row at the Cosmopolitan Swimwear Party & Fashion Show (that link includes photos), and now (just last weekend) they go and […]
