You’re the guy!!!” And he’ll be like “Yeah!!!” […]

THE GROCERY STORE MUSICAL
I’ve only really been compelled to break out into song in the Sea Point Spar, home to thousands upon thousands of overseas models living in the area.

THE TELETUBBIES DO THE HAKA
Iron Mike sends me stuff from time to time. He’s improved a lot, although he has, on more than one occasion, been guilty of the cardinal sin of sending me content that has already featured on 2oceansvibe. Punishable by death, if I so wished. But it’s hard to put out a hit on Iron Mike, […]
