Yes folks, we sit at work in out hot pants and we melt in front of our laptop’s… not cool!

I fancy myself a bit of a photographer and if you know me you’ll also know that the pictures I take are breathtakingly beautiful.

I moved down to Cape Town a couple of months ago and I haven’t regretted it since.I miss the incredible thunder and lightning storms we had up there but that’s about it!

So, my Jelly bear and I went to our local spot for some drinks and to watch that great ball of fire disappear into the sea…

Sunset Over The Atlantic

Now why would I want to move back to Pretoria?

The way I feel has absolutely nothing to do with Phil the Thrills 3.4 birthday party last night which ended up at my mates club at the Old Biscuit Mill, decoDance.

Incidentally people there are like a hundred million roadblocks out there so be reponsible and work with the authorities on this one. Don’t be a chop about it basically.

Anyway… I digress… where where we? Oh yes, we were here…

What a Shite view

Click the image for a larger version. I was only kidding, seriously, it’s not that shite. What was REALLY KAK was when there was a Jacob Zuma picture adorning the lamp post that Tamryn very cleverly did not get into her picture. Something I can’t do.

‘Cos I have a piece of shit camera.. and I NEVER blame my tools.

So we looked over a little and this jumped out at us.

Anyway there are tons of these vendor dudes that show off their wares along the strip and this guy was a most undustrious dude. Not only did he make a flippen massive wire motorbike, he also CHARGED for the picture, before telling us his dream was to make a wire Mandela in the Waterfront. So my obvious first thought was… ummm youre making wire motorbikes at the Blouberg Beachfront, what exactly is stopping you from making wire Mandelas at the Waterfront?

Nice Bike

I think these guys are well versed in what to say to ellicit that extra buck. Incidentally brutha maaaan, while talking about extra bucks and all that, what’s under the hat? This doesn’t take away from the fact they are obviously super talented.

Then, and in final reference to my all time favourite music video (for now that is) we spotted these birds trying to get on the boat.

Birds and a Boat

Not just any boat mind you, THE boat. The one from the video… which is just out of shot… promise [video here]

It’s really so kak.

Damn you Samsung Omnia DAMN YOU!! How dare you spoil such a beautiful shot!

This ones a little bit better. Can you see the boat? That’s NOT the one Im referring to, the one I refer to below was BIGGER, and slighty over to the right. Kinda Robben Eilandish.

What a lovely Catamaran

Iwas having a conversation with a really pretty young thing I had just met… when she said to me… hey…. look what kind of boat is that? She pointed over to what was VERY CLEARLY a cargo carrier sitting in Table Bay. I thought about this for a second then told her… it’s a Catamaran.

She was obviously trying to make conversation.

Using my absolute niceness that I hold within me, I eventually told her “No I’m only kidding thats a container carrier, would you like a tequila?”

All this got me thinking about one of my favourite music vids of all time. This is it.

I love a bit of satire on a monday morning evening. I just love the fact that these guys can take the piss out of anything and make it sound good. Its pretty funny too. I actually remember the first time I saw an RnB/HipHop boat scene. I thought then… Ummm ok these okes are on a boat now what? (talking of WHAT check this out.)

Nice to see I’m not the only one thinking these things.

For the more risque amongst you lets revisit another one of their offerings shall we? Remember Jizz in my pants? Another powerful song from The Lonely Island. Go here, but be warned, not for the prudes amongst us. Featuring Molly Sims. Gotta love it.
