Apparently yesterday was an absolute joke at the Roeland Street Fire Department in Cape Town. Witnesses have confirmed that the support from various Cape Town brands was so overwhelming, they could have “opened a small shop if they wanted.” This, following the radical fires that hit Table Mountain on Wednesday night / Thursday morning.

I really do hope that Randall Abrahams doesn’t think all the negative press is a compliment to how well he is playing his “nasty” character on SA Idols. I must make it radiantly clear that this is not the case. Unlike in the US, where people “hate” the nasty judge, Simon Cowell (they do actually […]

I only watched the Oscars last night, as the live broadcast (early yesterday morning) was on during my dealings with Mercedes Benz. In case you missed my Twitting, I dropped off my car and was put into an A-Class Merc as I joined a lift club from the Culemborg Orbit Motors to The Safe House. […]
