10 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I grabbed a burger at Hudson’s last night and ran into the owner, Dave. He informed me that the place above Hudsons, The Saasveld Lodge, still had availability for the World Cup. So if you’ve got mates coming to town who aren’t able to make use of the ridiculous deals being offered at my primary […]

You can only imagine the zone you can get into, listening to some vinyl, with a joint in one hand and your new iPad in the other – on the day that Google Maps goes live with “Google Street View” for Cape Town. My God, I have traipsed every square inch of this city, all […]

FLAGS – LET’S HAVE THAT CHAT
07 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 6 Comments
Ok I think we need to get the flags on the car mirrors, gang – at the very least. A word of caution – check the size before you buy them. I bought my first pair and they were too small. They will now be given to The Muse, whose MG has smaller mirrors than […]

DOES THIS WORLD CUP MAKE ME LOOK FAT?
01 Jun 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 3 Comments
Bafana Bafana continue to improve our vibe ahead of the world cup – this time by owning Guatemala in a record 5-0 win. Sure, there may have been three penalties in the mix (two of which were moderately questionable), but the other two goals were genuinely gnarly. Anyhow, while most of the country and all […]

AWESOME BLUE BULLS SUPPORTERS – PART II
25 May 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
We urge you not to send a barrage of Blue Bulls supporter images, as we are now fully aware that anything we can imagine, is possible, and has happened. Last week’s footage of a Blue Bulls supporter’s home was pretty mind-blowing and yes, we have received the images of the Blue Bulls wedding. But now […]

“INTRIGUING” IS ANOTHER WORD FOR “WEIRD”
21 May 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Sorry about that, it’s kind of bright, I know. As you can see, London have gone for a bit of an intriguing vibe for their 2012 Olympic logo. And by intriguing, I might actually mean, “epilepsy-inducing”. So, in a intriguing strange kind of way, it’s kudos to London’s Olympic organising committee (queerly named Locog) for […]

COOKING YOURSELF – A NATIONAL SPORT IN FINLAND

ESPN is a great repository for sporting news. Especially news from the Baltic states. Take Finland, for example. Finland is the home of Sauna (that’s right, with a capital “S”). This relaxing past tie has been exported in various forms and varieties the world over, such is humankind’s love for a good, cleansing sweat. But […]

With the Soccer World Cup just 24 days, four hours and 20 minutes away, it’s so comforting to know that our beloved RSA is getting the accurate international press coverage that we deserve. I mean, take this, for example, courtesy of Chicago’s WGN news.

PRAWNS DECLARE HOLY WAR
11 May 2010 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
It was one thing dealing with the prawn invasion taking over Cape Town and the world, as it is usually carried out with a humorous twist. But the notion of actual monks joining in on the action, and presenting their cause as some kind of holy war, does raise some major concerns. We received the […]
