I’ve always got time for has-been seasoned professionals of the game. It’s those conversations that start with ‘I remember the time’ that trigger something in my brain which puts me into nostalgia mode. That’s the mode where the little leprechauns in my head pull up small ottomans closer to their leprechaun-sized couches and kick back […]
There is a saying I made up a few years ago when I used to smuggle my cat, Homer, through customs. I used to tell my friends, “Don’t let the cat out the bag.” Since then, it’s use has slowly evolved and now people use it as an actual saying. They mainly use it to […]
My skill-set is widely discussed and it’s a given that long-distance running comes as easy to me as horse whispering. It was for that exact reason that I accepted Runner’s World Magazine’s invitation to do the Two Oceans Marathon. They were clearly aware of the fact that I do the same course most weeks – […]

SA #1 and future World Surf Champion, Jordy Smith , gives us another reason to like his vibe. He’s obviously got TONS of surfboards in his “quiver,” but I did not realise that each of his boards has a girl painted it. A different girl for every board. He doesn’t call them his “boards,” he […]

Invictus attempts to capture the Zeitgeist of the New South Africa in its infancy and watching this film gives us some idea of just how far we’ve come as a nation… I mean, we’ve got a new flag and cop cars aren’t yellow anymore!? Invictus is based on the real-life glory story that has made […]
Skattie.com have finally gone and done what everyone was asking for. They’ve put together a comprehensive list of South African personalities with Twitter accounts!

I honestly didn’t think I would ever be getting excited about an afrikaans rapper coming to Cape Town. But hey, look at global warming” – things change.. The uninitiated may want to check out the article we did on SA superstar Jack Parow a short while back. The guy has basically exploded onto the local […]
A combination of emails I have received, as well as the responses (comments) to the brief 2oceansvibe review of The Killers concert, suggests an overwhelming negativity to the way in which Big Concerts organised the event. OR THIS ONE They (Big Concerts) obviously received the same backlash, as they felt compelled to release the following […]
Branson Unveils Virgin Galactic SpacePlane – Having just pipped 2oceansvibe’s space programme, I gotta give it to Sir Rich – it’s looking damn impressive. “SpaceShipTwo was presented to the world in Mojave, California. The vehicle will undergo testing over the next 18 months before being allowed to take ticketed individuals on short-hop trips just above […]
Please don’t let the same thing happen as what happened with The Killers concert in Cape Town. You know what I’m talking – those of you that woke up too late and couldn’t get tickets. The 2010 L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate is on January the 9th which is one month away. That’s right, South Africa’s premiere […]
This thing is getting completely out of control now! TONIGHT’S LOTTERY COMES TO ONE POINT ONE BILLION RAND! Are you joking? It reminds me of that big one which was won the other day. It was a little bit more cash, but it doesn’t really make a difference – a billionaire is a billionaire! Don’t […]
Apparently you can check some angels tanning topless somewhere in this photo. Honestly – it’s so high res that you can move the pic around and zoom in a long way. It’s virtually crystal clear on full zoom. I couldn’t find them (the topless angels). But I think what we should do is look for […]
I feel quite bad that I chilled at Pearl Valley until just before the concert. It kills me that we drove in at the last minute and got VIP parking and grabbed a beer before being escorted to the Heineken VIP tent and then into the Golden Circle. I genuinely do feel bad. CLICK HERE […]
A bunch of amateurs were flying a SAA plane yesterday, as they landed in George and skidded off the runway. Not ideal.. [source:unknown] As we cross to NewsToday for more: A South African Airlink plane overshot the runway at George Airport on Monday and landed near the N2 highway, the Western Cape Safety and Security […]
Tiger’s Litter Tiger Woods and The Porn Star – Seriously, it’s reached a point where you can make the headlines up. Not that I made this one up. It is now officially alleged that NUMBER 7 has come forward with revelations of her and Tiger’s sexual escapades. He’s basically bonked everybody. It won’t be long […]
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 […]
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 […]
I got an email a few months back from a 2oceansviber, telling me about this pair of twin brothers who were making some seriously cool music. “Locnville” was the name. I get a lot of people emailing and telling about their friend’s “awesome” band and sadly now take “heads ups” with a pinch of salt. […]
David Beckham – Kicking it.. David Beckham And New Mohawk Doing Good in SA – Having just lost his grandfather, often-mocked yet actually super-cool, David Beckham, put his family tragedy aside as he met children at an HIV clinic in South Africa this week. He put on his best smile for the youngsters, pregnant ladies […]
No one week ago we gave you the AWESOMENESS that is/was the Liesbeek River feature on Google Earth, citing “underage orgies” as a common occurrence at said river. That has apparently been changed. Not that it has stopped other SA Wikipedia nuggets, including this one, describing the town of Underberg, in Kwazulu-Natal. Enjoy that last […]
I’m not usually one for getting star struck, but even I rolled out of bed this morning, irrigated the Gobi desert in my mouth, and rang myself to call in sick with football fever. It’s the 2010 World Cup draw tonight and the last time I was this excited was when I realised a mince […]
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 […]
I wasn’t really sure what to expect when I visited the Reddam House Grade 7’s yesterday at 08h45. That will probably explain why I was tweeting you so many awesome photographs (here and here) this morning as I made my way from The Safe House to Reddam House Private School in Sea Point. Reddam House […]
Marisa Miller shows as the “Fantasy Bra” Victoria’s Secret unveils $3 million diamond bra – It’s called the Victoria’s Secret Fantasy bra and was designed by Italian jewelry house, Damiani. Looking at the picture, the fantasy is all there, but I don’t know how fantastic it will be after I buy it and Marisa is […]
It’s not so much the “wow” factor of a paraglider landing on Camps Bay Beach opposite Caprice, as much as it is an excuse to remove yourself from whatever you’re doing and to submerge yourself into the ridiculous day we’re having today. A quick video wouldn’t hurt. Check it out: Some of you would have […]
