The apes are here
[permalink]

Some of you may have noticed the ad on the right of 2oceansvibe with the picture of an ape on it. Do yourself a favour and check it out. It's positively genius. I didn't properly grasp it until the guys behind it sent me a T-shirt. It's fucking brilliant. They've taken the 'C' out of Cape Town and their first series of T-shirts have a stylised ape doing various things pertaining to Cape Town names and sayings. They have printed the first 6 designs and tell us there will be more to follow. They've got the ape in various poses like "Ape Point", "Ape Doctor" and "Keep the Ape in Shape". They sent me the Ape Point T-shirt (great quality and good cut - for a change) which has the ape (with his expressionless face) pointing to the side. Hilarious. I will wear it till it disintegrates.

The apetown.co.za website claims that the idea behind it was the fact that in Cape Town we are surrounded by baboons and monkeys everywhere we turn. They talk about Apetonians. They neglected to mention the monkeys that work at Eskom who have had us in a fucking blackout for a few weeks so far. Thank God my high-tech laptop has enough standby time to kill a civilian.

Well done Ape town. You've hit it spot on.
