There has been perhaps too much beaching following my stay at the Cape Grace Hotel and the kind people at Le Quartier Français in Franschhoek quite rightly assumed that I might need a good rest, special pampering and fabulous cuisine. A long weekend in their finest suite was proposed and, I’m the first to admit […]

Again, another fine example of quality:     I see he had a little fight with the marker pen? The mark on his face and the pen lying in waiting just next to the wall suggests there is more to come..

Did you enjoy that sub-heading? “Lewd conduct the order of the day!” Hah! Who talks like that? Anyway I got an email from The Fruit Farmer, who has an amazing skill of finding local content with a bizarre twist. Always humorous, he gave me a link to an article and asked if I felt the […]

Personally, I’m fine with it. My bathroom habits are few and far between. It’s all a bit tedious, really. Like brushing my teeth – Christ, it bores me! And going for a number two – seriously, I don’t have that much time. I’m in and I’m out. I take a magazine from time to time, […]

I mention a lot of cool eating and drinking establishments and shops on these pages. Everyone from Caprice and Miss K, to Vida e, Butlers and Woolworths. There is a reason for that; I’ve bought into their brands and I feel it is safe for you to do so as well. They are brands that […]

It’s so cool that Bicycling Magazine has a fashion/style editor, called “STYLEMAN.” It’s even better that a recent issue rasies the question we brought up with regards to cyclists wearing helmets whilst dining in restaurants/cafes and eateries around Cape Town. You’ll find STYLEMAN’S reply might hamper his chances of working for Vogue.   www.bicycling.co.za   […]

Look really carefully and you’ll see Lindsay Lohan in this picture. Lohan – emaciated   That’s too thin, girls. Now I know we don’t want to look like a tuckbox, but you have to find a middle ground. We’re not asking for too much. Honestly. You know, even THIS is fine!

We’ve brought you a pant load of number plate articles and we’re getting what I call “license-lash” when you’ve seen too many stupid numberplates and you can’t do any more. Unless, of course, they’re EXCEPTIONAL . Unless they’re BEYOND human thought. You’ll remember (here, here, here, here and here) my main issue being about people […]

Ok, I’ve been feeling the pulse of Cape Town and am very pleased to see more and more people (girls, and boys alike) have realised the coolness of the “Slap, Snap & Fisties” handshake. Again, your belief in 2oceansvibe has resulted in you being happier and, more importantly, cooler – the way I like to […]

My weekend was pretty basic. Saturday was an absolute pleasure as people thought there was too much mist to go to the beach. Thus leaving the entire beach empty for the more intrepid, like myself. It was actually boiling hot with a very light sexual mist in the air. Like that lighting they use when […]

I’ve obviously misunderstood everything in my life thus far. Because – for me – the idea of there being a photo of me crying on the first day of school, plastered all over the front page of one of the countries biggest selling newspapers, does not appeal. I was ever so slightly disturbed when I […]

A number of people have emailed me this video so I thought I’d pop up the YouTube clip, rather than receiving anymore 3Mb files. You do know that 90% of the clips people send around are also available on Youtube, right? No problem. Ok, this is pretty hysterical. It features a particularly overweight gent dancing […]
