He has it all, old “Ali”. The “Herbalist of the Year 2009,” we are told. And my GOD is he skilled! There are simply too many skills to mention. He’ll increase your penis size and make sure you win in court! “No matter what stage” of the court proceedings, he goes on to say. This […]
I got a DM (Direct Tweet) with a web link from @thegoodcount the other day. All it said was, “You owe me a six pack” plus the link. Wow. Now I get a lot of crap in my inbox from you lot out there and I’m quite well tuned into what is and isn’t rubbish. […]
A friend of my buddies over at TheBombSurf, Gary Green, has written a book called Stand At Ease – a hilarious account of Green’s time in the South African Defence Force. Simon Burrow, over at LivingStylishlyWell.com (somewhere in the French Luberon Valley – poor thing) also served his time in the army, and gave it […]
Yesterday’s story about the secret businessman who had a dream and went to Table Mountain to gave his Audi R8 to two car guards, has become the talk of the town. With this morning’s e-TV revelations that he also gave away his house, we simply must find out more! 2oceansvibe got hold of a telephone […]
It’s a bit of a joke really – the LEICA D-Lux 4 camera. The very same camera that you will own if your photograph wins the L’Ormarins Moment photographic competition. If I may.. The LEICA D-Lux 4 Shame, it’ll be awkward for your friends when you’ve got the best camera. But that’s just the way […]
No, I am not spicing you. The unidentified man bought the car (and Audi R8) in December (probably from Audi Centre Cape Town) for around R1.4m and reckons that he had a dream, telling him to come to Table Mountain. So he rocks up at the mountain, asks the car guards who has drivers licenses […]
Everyone is raving about these “Authentic Sessions” at Cafe Caprice, featuring local musicians and DJ’s in the DJ box, spinning tunes that they feel have been an influence on their music and their vibe in general. 340ml are playing tonight – apparently it’s gonna be “off the chain.” Zebra & Giraffe on Friday (don’t tell […]
Please, dear God, do not see this as the start of a trend. We do NOT post lost dog ads on 2oceansvibe. But I just thought the rareness of receiving a lost dog ad in my inbox would be enough reason for this “one-off.” It’s very “niche,” don’t you think? And I am SO niche […]
Living the holiday.. Snow monkeys: Japanese Macaques Living The Holiday – In sub-zero temperatures, Japanese macaques soak in the warmth of a volcanic hotspring at Jigokudani (Hell’s Valley) in Nagano Province, Japan – the only known place in the world where monkeys bathe in natural hot springs.

2oceansvibe’s disdain for cycling fraternity’s need to expose their balls (especially when there are children around) and wear their cycling helmets in and around public retail outlets is well documented. It comes as a surprise to see that surfers are falling into the same public disgrace trap. SURFERS! Of all people! I was under the […]

And if you don’t know who the straight cross-dressing Eddie Izzard is, then just CLICK HERE to get a whiff of what you’re dealing with. Eddie Izzard Tonight tells us: That Eddie Izzard will […]
Bzzzzt.. my head nearly exploded trying to compute that headline. Sorry, did you say Megan Fox and Armani and underwear and pictures in the same sentence? You’re Goddamn right I did! BANG! Megan Fox for Armani underwear Fashionistas and most-males alike may recall the news that Megan Fox was taking over the Armani underwear gig […]
Seriously, give yourselves a big hand! I got in touch with the guys behind the Levi’s Get Rid Of Your Jeans For Good campaign we all jumped on at the end of last year. Remember the one which had Levi’s paying you money for your old jeans? Ja, that one. So anyway, I was dying […]
Incredible phrases and names on our local taxi’s have always amused me. Classics like “Dance with my father” and “Good luck to those who hate me” will be remembered forever. So will this one, I’m sure, as we witness the beauty of misunderstood and/or misspelt phrases being printed on taxis – always funny. Awesome.. Seriously, […]
Let’s chat about the current “vibe” I’m going for.. I’ve been getting a lot of attention about two things lately. My new shades, and the shirts I’ve been throwing around. People say that I have been “killing it” and they want to know where the goods are from. Look, that’s fair enough.. So instead of […]
The cult movement in support of ass flavoured products seems to be escalating as the essence of ass is being used in foods as far afield as Knysna! It’s obviously moving up the coast, as it wasn’t a few months ago someone spotted ass flavoured cup cakes in Hermanus. Unlike the ass flavoured products featured […]
I didn’t think it would work, when I was first told about @yourlunchrun, the new Twitter account guy whose Twitter page tells us, “Don’t have time for a run? I’ll do it for your lazy Ass. Just enjoy the ‘time out’ and even send requests to make it YourRun – GO!” Apparently he heads off […]
With the signature 2oceansvibe slogan telling us, “Work is a sideline, Live the holiday,” there were two very obvious things that needed to be addessed. First was the launch of 2oceansvibe Jobs – a website which showcases all temporary, freelance and part-time jobs available in Cape Town and beyond. No permanent 9-5 jobs will be […]
A new website, by the name of www.stephaniekohler.co.za has gone viral in South Africa’s Twitter universe. From what initially like someone’s own personal webpage, the person to which the domain name refers, “Stephanie Kohler,” has nothing to do with the website whatsoever, other than being the target of an online attack. Retribution for alleged fraudulent […]
Hello there, shapely girls.. Curvy Models – The Shape of Things to Come? – As always within the fashion industry, your dress size dictates your validity and of course whether or not you are added to the catwalk line up or left at home experimenting with the latest diet fads in an attempt to ‘fit’ […]
I don’t need to remind you about South Africa’s premiere social event happening on Saturday – the annual L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate Horse Race at Kenilworth Race Course in Cape Town. And if you haven’t got your ducks in a row, best you pop down to Computicket right now to secure your tickets. Rather I should […]
In November I alerted you about the Seth Rotherham feature in the ELLE Magazine. I didn’t publish it in full on these pages, as the magazine was still in circulation. It is now off the shelves and has coincidentally become one of their most successful issues ever. Weird.. especially with that issue of YOU Magazine […]
Any Capetonian worth their salt should know about Olympia Café in Kalk Bay – where a complete disregard for decor is met head on with possibly the most incredible food you will ever experience. And the staff believe it too, as we (The Muse and I) arrived at the front door last weekend, just in […]
Yesterday’s Good Morning Headlines made mention of the Burj Dubai, the tallest building in the world, which officially opened on January 4, 2010. The Burj Dubai [photo: boston.com] But it’s not just the tallest building in the world, it’s also: Current records • Tallest skyscraper to top of spire: 818 m (2,684 ft) (previously Taipei […]
Yesterday I “tweeted” something about the magical road that transports you from the new Green Point circle (next to the stadium) directly to the Waterfront (the preferred back entry near the Radisson hotel). There is no easier route to get to the Waterfront. Even if I was driving into town from the N2, I would […]
President Jacob Zuma and his new bride share the first dance Your President Got Married Yesterday – Whilst press were apparently barred from attending Jay Z’s wedding yesterday, The Guardian did a fine job collecting a series of photographs from the event. Including Zuma dancing, and falling and all kinds of general tomfoolery. [guardian] Johnson […]
I put “on it’s head” in inverted commas to indicate a quote, presumably by someone with authority. Given the topic of wine pairing, one would hope, at the very least, that the quote came from someone within the food or wine industry. In truth… it didn’t – I made it up. Yup, that’s right. Much […]
The 2oceansvibe slogan, “Work is a sideline, Live the holiday” is widely accepted as the ultimate ideal. In order for work to be a sideline, one needs to avoid full-time 9 to 5 employment at all costs. Unless you’re working for yourself. But in order to get your own thing going, you need spare time. […]
Yesterday we brought you images of the gang of individuals stalking Springbok Captain, John Smit, at every book signing that he goes to (for the launch of his new book – “Captain in the Cauldron.“ They were up in arms over some things that were said in John’s book and have been following him around […]
