Man versus Chicken

In South Africa we can always rely on Nando’s for a comical fix, always keeping abreast of current trends in South Africa and milking them for every cent they are worth – here is to Nando’s getting it right again. Playing on the Old Spice advert which reeks of masculinity, as it rightly should, Nando’s […]

EFC Africa

So last night was pretty exciting and well worth a mention, even more so because Cape Town fighter, Don Madge, took top honours. At Carnival City in Jolburg, the great and infamous Extreme Fighting Championship Africa went down. The Benoni Ponies were going wild in the audience, I’m almost sure there were more fights going […]

Boots&All

Finally, we are back to the Super Rugby. With the brief, albeit strenuous reprieve that most franchises got over the last 2 weeks there are going to be a few who are chomping at the bit to get this weekend’s matches under way. Down under matches have already kicked off, thanks to a 12 hour […]

Cape Town Moonlight Mass

Bike is packed and ready. Excitement levels are buildings. Friends have been gathered. No rain expected. Moon is massive. I think tonight’s Moonlight Mass is going to be something pretty special. Report and photos to follow later. If in doubt grab a bike and head down to Green Point circle at 9pm tonight and get […]

An open letter to our President Jacob Zuma

Aside from the huge international rugby match (SA V Samoa) we have coming our way this weekend, we also now have this to discuss around the fire and there will be more than a few of you who will think this man should be given a “Bells”. Kenny Kunene, playboy, party boy extraordinaire, the kind […]

Little Act of Kindness #2

But, then there are those that we do without even thinking twice about. I fall into the latter category. I am smoker and have been for a […]

Paying it forward

“Jirre fok, dis bleedy fokken koud!” – This is something that many of us South Africans will hear plenty of times over the next few months. Most of you reading this are like me – privileged, white, middle class and sleeping with a roof over your head. Unfortunately there are people out there who aren’t […]

Criminalizing curiousity

Blame my background in law for this, but picking up this morning’s paper really got me in a tail spin – I was almost certain that we lived in a democratic state and through the Constitution, the supreme law , we are all recognized as people with rights. But apparently not. There are movements being […]

A dismal Stormers season

Sport and loyalty are synonymous with one another – passion evokes loyalty and loyalty keeps us committed. Loyalty is one of those things in life that you don’t just happen to stumble upon, its innate. The bond of affinity between your loyalty and what you are loyal to, very rarely has a formulaic calculation attached. […]
