The […]

Wow, and there I was thinking we were confused! With our London taxis on the roads and people singing Ole Ole at the sports stadiums, we certainly are a melting pot of cultures and have become professionals at ‘borrowing’ foreign nation’s ideas, pastimes and even sayings.

Occasionally, when I’m not rocking out to AC/DC, I look around and realise that there’s more to life than three-chord, blues based hard rock.

It’s been a while since we caught up with South Africa’s only Victoria’s Secret supermodel, Candice Swanepoel. And once again we are reminded why, in fact, we like her so much.
