As I haven’t posted anything in a while, I will write something that I’m truly passionate about: Ice-Cubes! Not just any ice-cubes – the ones you find everywhere. I am talking about ice-cube designs, that are so powerful that they start conversations. And here they are, my top 10 most awesome ice-cubes designs…in the world!…
What is the most proudly South African thing you can any day of the year, but especially a Sunday – a braai. And what is a braai all by your lonesome with one or two strings of boerewors and a shriveled up tasteless chop – sadness. A braai is an experience that should be shared…
Since there are many beer festivals in Cape Town happening during the next few weeks, we had a look at some beers you should think twice about drinking. I don’t think these are available in South Africa but you have been warned – drink at own risk! 1. Beer for Dogs Those hoping to get…

During April 2010, a photographer named Sally Davies went to her local McDonalds and bought herself a Happy Meal. However, she had no intention of eating it…she only took photos – 180 of them for 180 days. Now, I’m no expert but if I go for a holiday and leave a sandwich on the kitchen…
I love going to the movies and do so about once or twice per month even though the ticket prices are somewhat rediculous. I’ve been told that tickets in Europe are around 15 Euros so we shouldn’t be complaining here in South Africa. Also, I don’t buy into the Hollywood hype of some of the…
