After the hurricanes that hit Cape Town this week (see earlier posts including trucks getting blown over outside Caprice), I am pleased to announce that everything is back to normal. This, taken today at 15h00. Utter splendour And where exactly was that taken, I hear you ask? Watch this space..
She’s got a good hold of that pump. She’s a pro And how do we know it’s her? Her foot has never been the same since the accident Because it SAYS SO on her shirt! Duh!
During Mo-vember (the month formerly known as November) I’m growing a Mo. That’s right I’m bringing the Mo back because I’m passionate about tackling men’s health issues and being proactive in the fight against prostate and testicular cancer. So not only do you get to support a worthy cause, but you get to humiliate me […]
Don’t make the mistake thinking that one-piece costumes are just for grannies. Enjoy this latest shot of Victoria’s Secret model, Alessandra Ambrosio HURTING it in a one-piece. Alessandra Ambrosio – murdering it Fine for girls. NOT FINE for guys.
Given that it is the best chocolate on planet Earth, the scarcity of Daim Chocolate bars in Cape Town is becoming more and more alarming. Every time I can’t find it in its usual haunts (Giovanni’s, Carlucci’s etc.) I pretend that it must just be a one-off. But then, on the fifth time, I get […]
The Barndog sent this in and I remember him telling me about this dog. It’s quite a famous dog, actually, name Spice. Spice chills the fuck out on the sofa in a restaurant in Durbs called, you guessed it, Spice. The photo was taken from his table. I think it’s absolutely fine, as a view, […]
It’s pretty radical stuff being thrown around here, my friends. In short, Bob Skinstad will be hosting tonight’s Luv Sport show via Skype, FROM BERMUDA! It’s what we call “progressive broadcasting” and it’s a first for SuperSport, let alone you. Tonight, 21h10, Supersport 1 (channel 201) Not only will you be able to keep […]
At last, visual evidence of the truck that was blown over outside Caprice yesterday. I can’t believe the photo is right here in front of me. I heard about it and just waited, patiently, for it to land on my lap. It’s so good. The winds are so powerful. They make me so CRAZY! […]
Finally, our prayers are answered! Someone has realised the humour in publishing upside down photos of dogs. We’ve all had a good chuckle when stumbling upon our canine friends fast asleep, upside down – them, blissfully unaware of how ridiculous they look as the flesh and flaps and eyeballs begin to slide. So someone has […]
Zone took this photo today, sent it to me, and asked the question: “There are pigs in Military Rd opposite Relish, ironically where I am beckoned to drink this evening. What does this mean for us? “ Pigs cruising the pavement in Cape Town City/Stad That reminds me, did you ever read the […]
I see the topic of Luke Watson’s September 2006 Sports Illustrated quote coming up more and more. You know the one: “Playing for the Boks would be a great honour. It has the potential and it has the ability to become one of the most powerful emblems this world has seen. It stands for […]
It had to happen. It’s just too much for the freaks’ brains out there. You know, actually auditioning on live TV, and in direct contact with “superstars” like Paula Abdul, Simon Cowell and Randy “Swazi” Jackson. Now look what you’ve done – this, from the New York Post: An “American Idol” reject who was […]
It’s not really called Hurricane Lionel, but it’s pretty serious anyway. Cape Town is blowing away. This, taken at Caprice. HECTIQUE!
ALL, If you keen am jumping onto Sian’s (Lloyds birds) birthday drinks – we share the same bday and as a female she always organises hers first, so I have no choice but to latch onto hers, until her and Lloyd break up. Or one of them die. She has arranged Relish (was Wafu but […]
This is Angelina Jolie earlier this week at the premier of her new film, Kung Fu Panda. The girls will enjoy admiring Angelina’s legs, posture and dress. Whilst the guys’ comments will begin with things like, “God, can you imagine….[censored].” Jolie and a clearly FAKE Panda Nice. She’s in bloody good nick. Click […]
You know that steep road that joins Kloof Road with Kloof Nek Road? Just up from Bacini’s? Ja, that’s the one. Well, anyway, it’s blocked off because a tree committed suicide over the road. I swear. Check it out. Hectrique!The winds experienced today are what we call “crazy” I think that guy standing […]
Best Man speeches can go either way. They can bomb, or they can kill. Some best men miss the mandate and spend their time regaling stories of the various skanks the groom nailed in his singles – Cringe City. Whilst others are just sublime, like when The Rock completely fucking murdered it on The Outside […]
A lovely series of shots showing The Queen’s husband, The Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip, letting one go. Aah, I enjoyed that. He did to, it seems. [thanks fred]
Oh my God, I SINCERELY hope the ex-pats in London have taken the 22 bus DIRECTLY to Harrods to lick the new Veuve Clicquot Champagne bar from floor to ceiling. There is a VERY good chance that heaven looks like this. The lilies in the corner are exactly how I dreamt it How […]
I spotted this at one of our faves, Imod. Check it out: That’s pretty much the standard we’re trying to keep here. [thanks jonty]
Some buddies of mine (including The Film Guy) have started this very cool Cape Town concept, called Taxi Jam. You can check out their website here. In a sentence : Taxi Jam is a selection of South Africa’s finest creative talent performing in an intimate 5 minute taxi ride. It’s pretty fucking cool and I […]
I woke today and thought of this. I feel you need to feel it. The unmistakable Ving Rhames. Just remember that..
Like taxis, we have come to tolerate our lycra-engulfed brethren and now realise that the only defense is to simply divert young childrens’ attention away from the bizarre behaviour and stray balls on display. Sunday morning gave us some extreme examples of how the Shimano Warriors’ anti-social behaviour has gone WAY past the edge of […]
You may have caught the news that Amy’s husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, has been freed from jail and has gone directly to rehab. But that’s not what we’re focusing on here. We’re focusing on Amy and I think the best thing would be to get a visual update. I made up a saying a few years […]
I’ve never been to the Diemersfontein Wine Farm before and, given that it was the first of it’s kind, I had never before indulged in the Woolworths Wine Festival. And what a treat it was! Positioned next to the town of Wellington and owned by Woolworths co-founders, The Sonnenberg Family, the farm is one of […]
It goes, “Ey stranger. Long time. Do you remember who i am and what i look like or do you enjoy deliberately ignoring someone when their (her spelling) literally sitting behind you at Caprice“ Weird. She starts off semi-normal, and then seems to get a bit of a wobbly towards the end. I get a […]
Jeremy Clarkson is in the dwang, as Labour MP, Chris Mole has called for the BBC to sack the popular Top Gear presenter, following some remarks he made on his show. Jezza Clarkson – generally doesn’t care a toss And wait till you find out what he said.. This, from wheels24: BBC asked […]
