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 […]
Time for a bit of culture, my love! For those of you who don’t know who Kehinde Wiley is, you’ll probably recognise his paintings, before you do his face. One things for sure – the guy is one of the world’s most sought-after artists and has a long list of famous clients, including the likes […]
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 […]
Yesterday I “tweeted” something about the magical road that transports you from the new Green Point circle (next to the stadium) directly to the Waterfront (the preferred back entry near the Radisson hotel). There is no easier route to get to the Waterfront. Even if I was driving into town from the N2, I would […]
So we had that whole 2010 World Cup Draw vibe, hey? Wow – very cool vibe! Why did 2oceansvibe Character “The Barndog“ have to be one of the main okes on the stage and involved with the picking of the balls? I’ll tell you why – because it’s like that, and that’s the way it […]
Well done to Lee Casalena, who has created this excellently excellent virtual tour of the Cape Town Green Point stadium. Including images of workers scratching their heads and a pair of white people in hard hats. I see a lot of chemistry between those two.. If it (the virtual tour) doesn’t work then you may […]
They’ve come in from all over and well done to the peeps that took them. Whilst there certainly were many duplicates in my inbox, the following images are made of pics I received sent in from three different sources. Please enjoy these pics (there are more, make sure you see them all by following the […]
We’ve shown at least one pic of each new stadium which has been built for the 2010 Football World Cup. Then we went into detail when we showcased the Durban stadium for you (much to the delight of Fred Hatman) and we even reported on Cape Town’s own Green Point stadium turning on the lights […]
And just like that, someone flicked the switch! For the first time seen by the public, the Green Point World Cup Stadium turned on the lights. And boy was it beautiful! Green Point Stadium switches on the lights.. She’s a beauty.. But then I got word @fromjoanne that there were even more pics out there […]
Wow, we managed to get hold of a pantload of pics, inside and out, of the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban. Including changing rooms, bathrooms and other facilities! The Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban But you need to see all the pics. They’ve been very clever with this stadium. They’ve alternated the colour of each […]
Can you even cope for a second with the fact that Kika-Sack have finally bowed to public pressure and added the colour pink to their range of Kika-Sack balls? Pink, ‘cos you are so very.. I know – it’s too awesome for words! And to celebrate the pink vibe, we’re giving away 50 […]
Victory, we all know, is sweet at the best of times. Victory against the Wallabies, on the other hand, is similar to three courses of dessert followed by…you guessed it, dessert. Perhaps the only thing better than beating the Aussies at rugby is beating them at cricket, and after two wins against the All Blacks, […]
At first I thought it was an ad for Kika-Sack balls, but then realised that they have created some kind of world cup dance. Like the Macarena, except impossible for anyone over 50 to join in. Pretty rad. I might need to practice those moves. Who knows – maybe there will be another […]
Paul from 1800 restaurant downstairs at the Cape Royale (click that if you haven’t seen this place yet) made a call to my room on Sunday night – “Thanks for the Butlers Pizza” he said, “the staff are all feeling the vibe.” Aah, good, the 10 larges had obviously arrived! Wonderful. They’ve got a lovely […]
You know when cameramen at sporting events do little pans of the crowd and zoom in on interesting people? Like at the tennis they often zoom in on royalty and celebrities. And at Newlands cricket they often zoom in on smoking hot drunk UCT students. Ja, well, I’m not sure if you caught the day […]
Manchester United centre back (“I’m bringing centre back, yeeeah!” – sorry..), Rio Ferdinand, seems intent on taking some attention away from his now ex-teammate Cristiano Ronaldo, who recently hit the headlines for tapping Paris Hilton (here). Here we see Rio Ferdinand on holiday in Israel this week, throwing out one helluva vibe, complete with tank […]
Andrew R sent this to The Marketer who, in turn, sent it on to me. What happens from there is that I immediately think of YOU and I put together this little article so that you can enjoy with me. You like that? Ja, I bet you do. Going Going GONE! Very cool. My […]
Whoah, there hasn’t been an auction on the Camps Bay strip since the place next door to Caprice, now occupied by The Grand Cafe, went for around R40 million sometime last year. And now, the highly sought after building on the other side of The Grand Cafe is going under the hammer. I spotted them […]
It’s all happening, people! The FIFA 2010 World Cup tickets are going on sale this week. I think I need to get a few, just in case the Mozambiquen connection doesn’t pull through (boys, I trust all is in order?). Tickets are currently priced between R140 and R6,300. And I say “currently” because […]
I was very impressed when the box of 2oceansvibe Kika-Sack balls arrived at my door. With the 2010 FIFA Soccer World Cup hitting town in the not-too-distant future, I couldn’t think of a better branding exercise. I mean, check how cool are these little guys? 2oceansvibe branded KIKA-SACK balls I know! How stunning? So […]
I thought this would be a nice touch. Just a quick tour from the sky of the Green Point stadium. I just did it now for you. This morning. I just popped up and filmed it for you. Because I care. I’m lying, obviously. Someone else did it. Thanks for that, chum.. CLICK HERE […]
Now this is a treat! Last week was Newcastle United’s new interim manager, Joe Kinnear’s first official press conference. Please, oh please, have a little squizz over this – it’s seriously mind blowing. This, from guardian.co.uk: ‘I have had a million pages of crap written about me. I’m ridiculed for no reason. I’m defenceless’ […]
I am very pleased to announce that there is a new name for the 2010 mascot – the Liger with the dread locks. His name WAS Zakumi. But FROM NOW ON the 2010 mascot will be referred to as, “AmaScot Scot .” AmaScot Scot The genius and necessity of this change is two-fold. You […]
