Nonthuthulezo the Princess

So we've sat on the fence with this whole Zeno Xenophobia thing. Awesome news just in is that the Sandvlei caravan park is being primed for the next refugee camp. This is mainly due to the Community Centres that are currently housing the 7000 homeless have mostly been booked for weddings with non-refundable deposits. I saw the 6 marquees go up on Friday, but they are still empty. Must remember to get the Lauren Hill and Wyclif Jean cd's out the box.


So when I had the weekly chit chat with my domestic, I had to ask how things were in her area.

Me: have there been any problems close to home?

Princess: No it's fine, we have a nice community. But it's terrible, that our people can be so selfish.

M: I know.

P: It's really sad for me to see it, how people can forget that only 30 years ago they all came from the Transkei and did the same thing. They're really selfish and I'm embarrassed.


Bless her soul, she's an absolute star.

More Top brands at bargain prices

So the folks up at North Sails know their stuff. We don't have space to list all the things they won, but they won it all (more or less). And when they try their hand at other things it's good. Like their North windsurf range (the entire thing is available to view on snailman's garage). I hear their kite stuff is top notch too.

fashionista grey

So when you can get your hand on some of their accessories, it's unlikely to end in disappointment. Even if it is a pair of their woolly gloves going for a mere twenty. Don't know how well they'll handle the saltwater, but the shop assistant at Pep said they would.

The Fire Sale

It's probably considered a disease because I'm not the only one with it. And i got a real bad case too.

Firesales - just can't avoid them. The CapeStorm one is legendry, and the firstAscent one did not disappoint either. So very kak news in that muizies' Bike Store, the Bike Haven has had to close, for now. Justin Berry is a very cool guy, but they been robbed 3 times in the very recent history. This despite the fact that the copshop is just the other side of the field.

Sitting Ducks

So in a bid to avoid bankruptcy and clear some stock, they had a daylight robbery sale. After punishing my Wellgo SPD pedals for nigh on 7 years, I opted to stick with the brand. I haven't been overly impressed, so was in a real quandry on Saturday. Go for Crank Bros Candy C's or a Ritchey SPD set? At below cost? Well even my fast disappearing budget wanted 'em both, so we'll see which set gets the nod.
