I did the right thing and got the new iPhone 3Gs from www.digicape.co.za. Look I’ll be honest, it’s fucking amazing. Then, do you know what I did with it this morning? I’ll tell you what I did with it this morning.. I used this beast of a phone and I shot a video of the […]
It should be noted that yesterday I had not only my first run of Summer, but also my first swim! In the ocean, that is. It was most refreshing. I swam to Robben Island and back. Why lie? So anyway, summer is well and truly here and I’ve already lost count of how many summer […]
I think a massive round of applause is due for the 2oceansvibe Weathergirls featured in this year’s highly anticipated Sports Illustrated SWIMWEAR EDITION – including Elbe van der Merwe, Lyndall Jarvis and Genevieve Morton! But there could only be one cover girl, and, although she has not yet been a 2oceansvibe Weather Girl, this year […]
Courtesy of Olmeca Tequila, Pussy Natural Energy Drink, Cape Royale Hotel and 2oceansvibe. What’s more, the only beer being served was Jack Black beer and the only wine was De Grendel Rose. Just because. All the professional behind-the-scenes pics are right here. The boys…the boys! You’ve seen that face somewhere before? The venue – shame.. […]
Hi gang! Hope all is well in the land of joy, sex, money, fast cars, champagne and suntans. Firstly, I just want to say that I’m still recovering from Friday and most of my voice has returned. Welcome back, voice. Thanks again to the peeps at Olmeca Black Tequila, Goldfish, Top Billing and Pussy Energy […]
INCREDIBLE scenes over the weekend outside Vida e in Green Point, as we see a “prawn” approaching a car guard. A “prawn” approaches a car guard outside Vida e, Green Point The car guard is not quite sure about that prawn – as we notice continued multi-species integration on the streets of Cape […]
I’ve been toying with this Pussy Natural Energy Drink for a while. You’ll remember the first mention of the energy drink was in one of the 2oceansvibe Weather Girls shows with the smoking hot Genevieve Morton (here and here). You see, the guys at Pussy (www.pussydrinks.com) were trying to get me to drink it for […]
Pattie Maes from Media Lab gave this TED talk, regarding a new invention/development they’re working on called “Sixth Sense.” Before we get to the video, I thought I’d fill you in on the vibe. ‘SixthSense’ is a wearable gestural interface that augments the physical world around us with digital information and lets us use […]
Cycling helmet attacks in the Southern Suburbs and beyond are a rarity – a rarity that surely adds to the draw of that particular semi-rural lifestyle. Well that’s all changing now, as the helmet attacks in public spaces are becoming more and more common that side of the mountain. This revolting display was taken at […]
One of the 2oceansvibe readers were cruising around Gumtree, trying to find a place to rent. As one might expect from a 2oceansviber, she wasn’t shy to peruse some places in Clifton. That’s when she stumbled upon this little BEAUT! 3 bed, Fully Itatlian Furnished Clifton beach house Ad ID: 139760893 Hi All you […]
It was too easy yesterday. I popped into Vida e on Kloof Road and then waltzed over to Mabu Vinyl, just opposite (in the road leading into the Vida entrance – Rheede Street) to pick up some records. I called the owner, Sugar, from the South of France on the day that Michael Jackson died. […]
BLATANTLY ignoring Vida e’s polite public-led request (here) for cyclists to remove their helmets when frequenting their establishment; it seems that THESE cyclists couldn’t care less about the general public’s wishes regarding their grossly inappropriate, anti-social and imposing behaviour. This, sent in this morning by a 2oceansvibe reader and concerned fellow citizen. Camps Bay […]
I MUST show you the Heidi Klum T-shirt I bought in Avignon whilst donning those white Ray Bans I mentioned the other day (from the new Ray Ban Colorize collection at Sunglass Hut). It is, quite simply, one of the most awesome T-shirts of your life. Check it out: Please excuse the pout But, […]
It hasn’t been that long since we published pics (here) of Hilts and her now ex-boyfriend, Doug Someone-or-other, dry humping each each other in Cannes; and would you believe it, they’ve broken up! Paris Hilton in blue More getting out of car NSFW here PEOPLE reports: “In response to the inquiry on whether […]
Dying for a fresh coffee, I hunted down the new Vida e Caffe which has opened in London. It’s on the corner of Regent Street and Air and is about 200m from Piccadilly Circus tube station. I was pleased to see that everyone’s favourite barista, Msizi, was there, as well as one of the partners, […]
One would think that in a city which is still suffering the heartache and memories of the 9/11 attacks, people would be more mindful when walking into stores and laying on a full-on helmet attack? This, from Kerrin N in New York City: Hi Seth, Greetings from Brooklyn (New York, not Millerton), I […]
You’re rude and you’re coming across as a tool. Kindly remove your helmet. [thanks rob]
I visited HQ (Headquarters) Restaurant twice last week. Serving just one kind of salad and one kind of steak, I enjoy on the simplicity of the experience. And so does the TBG (Tall Blonde Guy) it seems! HQ Restaurant On my second visit last week I ran into Matt, who, slightly out of […]
I am still a bit shell-shocked after my harrowing visit to the Waterfront this morning. I went to get some passport photographs and decided to pop into the Waterfront iStore shop who (I was under the impression) sell most Apple Mac products. I was looking for an iPod shuffle, as my normal iPod is too […]
A stunning day had by all! Andrew from the Hi-Five Scooter Club organised a scooter rally that took place on voting day (GO DOLPHINS!), yesterday, which kicked off at the Waterfront Vespa Shop, next to the Caltex station. A rally that was put together to highlight the perfect match that is scooters and Cape Town, […]
Mark C spotted an honourable mention (here) in a recent mybroadband investigation into South Africa’s biggest websites. It certainly made for interesting reading and something perhaps YOU should read as you navigate this ever-changing SA media landscape. It was noted : SA’s biggest websites and blogs South Africa is currently experiencing strong […]
This fellow can be found at Vida e in Camps Bay. I enjoy him. Soso Unlike his coffe (which is amazing), his name is “Soso .” No, I am not spicing you. I just hope that when people ask him what his name is, he holds out his hand flat and, before they […]
“Kudos” obsessives will definitely give the audacious driver of this Vespa “kudos” for his/her parking ON Camps Bay beach . It is SO brazen, SO radical and SO brilliantly rude, that we should do nothing but stand and applaud. In the words of Montell Jordan.. “THIS IS HOW WE DO IT!” Stand up from […]
Very clever little vibe this. Spotted on Gumtree (here), this guy, Jannie, is advertising his Playstation 3 for R1,160,000 and is throwing in a free apartment. BRAND NEW SONY PLAYSTATION 3 – R1160 000.00 If you buy this SONY PLAYSTATION 3 you get the following for FREE! A very stylish Up Market 2 […]
Spotted this on thecoolhunter.net So cool.. So…very….cool.. The 1934 BMW R7Be….strong. Check it out: Think back 70 or 75 years to a time when design began to break away from the traditional and elaborate rationalism that ensued for hundreds of years. As the styles of Art Nouveau, Art Deco, Streamline and Zigzag […]
You might recall the incredible Kika Sack record set by The TBG and The Dude a few months back. 57 kikas in a row, to be exact (check out the footage here). So anyway, the Vida e boyz got involved in the action and attempted to break the current Kika Sack record. Check it out: […]
Talya G alerted me to a tweet on Matthew Buckland’s Twitter page (no, I do not say those words with a straight face) showing a paraglider who clearly missed his mark and ploughed straight into the wall, smashing a window at the restaurant above and landing, BANG, in front of Vida e. Not sure of […]
This Gumtree ad has been spotted and should attract the right candidate as a starting point to “living the holiday.” Finally, an end to the corporate world you are getting so tired of! For me the best part is without a doubt the last line – “No chancers please.” I wonder what would […]
Are you guys a little chilly over there? Well I want you to know that we ARE thinking about you. In fact, we discussed some of the ex-pats today, as we sipped on a Gelado iced coffee from Vida e . Isn’t that weird? I mean, we were sitting on the beach in the HOT […]
I mention a lot of cool eating and drinking establishments and shops on these pages. Everyone from Caprice and Miss K, to Vida e, Butlers and Woolworths. There is a reason for that; I’ve bought into their brands and I feel it is safe for you to do so as well. They are brands that […]
