This week’s Jack Friday competition was, despite the cold weather, a fiery contest. The quality of the tweeted entries is taking a sharply upward curve, so much so that this baby claimed the runner’s up place, courtesy of @PharSideUK.

Check out the First Lady of the United States freaking out in glee over the Bos Ice Tea on her lunch table in Woodstock yesterday. Ja. You know it.
When we said that we were going to revolutionize the South African work place by lobbying for shorter (read: “nonexistent”) Friday working hours, we weren’t kidding around. Proof? Thanks to the help of our friends at Jack Daniels, and the marvelous Last Word hotel group, we got ourselves a yacht. The Princess Emma, to be […]
Today is the 17th of the month. Instinctively, you know that that means. The Petrol gauge is flirting with the wrong side of the half-mark. The improvised wine-collection is running dry. The packet of cigarettes is looking dangerously roomy, and the Salticrax are beginning to look more austere than opulent. And as the cash-coffers dry […]
Sounds pretty remarkable, doesn’t it? You see, it all started when I was cruising around Schipol Airport and noticed that they were selling the iPad 2 for MORE than what you can buy one from at Digicape. Digicape are selling the iPad 2 with 32Gb and 3G for R6,599 – no spice. Can you believe […]

With Digicape taking care of the vibe since 2008, it’s a given that the 2oceansvibe Media compound is Mac ‘verskrik.’ It is for that very reason, and the fact that the world agrees with us (Apple is now worth more than Microsoft and Intel combined) that we wish to give you this video and full […]
My extensive collection of sunglasses is well documented, and I can tell you right now, without hesitation, that this new pair of Persol “Steve McQueen‘s” from Sunglass Hut is EASILY one of my favourites. They are the epitome of ‘classic’ and the contrast of the light tortoiseshell frames against the blue lenses make me so […]
Our weekly Jack Friday competition is beginning to build up a head of steam. And what with the winter weather approaching, it’s only appropriate that this entry, tweeted by @BrettLivesHere should claim the prize. Yes, today blossomed into a gorgeous day, but one really can’t be faulted for breaking out the pinstripe man-pyjamas and skaapie pantoffels. […]
So while the likes of DSquared2 are tarting up the MINI Countryman (here), I see they are looking at launching a MINI Roadster quite soon. I couldn’t get confirmation from MINI SA about this, let alone when they will be bringing them to SA. But if they do…. Mmm mm! We got hold of a […]

2oceansvibe had to turn down business from two different brands this last week. A lot of the haters out there don’t realise that. They don’t think it happens. It does. Constantly. That is why the lovers keep coming back here – because any exposure for any brand is genuine and they don’t mind the advertising. […]

Two years ago I sought the counsel of a brainy acquaintance of mine on the subject of my flagging and flaccid career as a broadcaster. In his study was a device that was to be the prop that formed the basis of his argument. Here was a gizmo that allowed this pale and interesting fish to tune into digital radio in far flung territories at the flick of a dial. This, he said, is the future of broadcasting. Go forth, he said, as casually as he might buy some more Japanese stocks.

How many of you caught the story, posted earlier in the day, about a Cape Town advocate who swore at a Cape Town High Court judge, and stormed out of the court room? Look, in no way do we condone his behaviour. Insulting references to another man’s female relatives, most especially The Mother, should never […]

We’re so proud of the 2oceansvibe Weathergirls and the way they’re quietly destroying the globe with their beauty. Take for example our very first Weathergirl, Genevieve Morton, who finds herself in the pages of the US Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue! I was paging through the latest issue on my iPad (thanks Digicape) and got such […]
Every human being worth their kidneys knows that the healthiest drink available is pure, clean water. Sure, and we enjoy water. A lot. But there are two immediate problems with this vibe. Firstly, clean, drinkable pure water isn’t always available when you want a drink. And secondly, sometimes you don’t want water. Water has no […]

I was doing my thing in London in the late 90’s – you know, hanging at the Met Bar, getting fussy about pin-stripe suits and enjoying the exchange rate (20 to 1 when I left, can you believe it!). But one thing stood out during my time in London, and that was the chairs my […]
