Finally the universe aligned and I got the opportunity to go see Steve Newman (along with Greg Georgiades and Ashish Joshi ) at the House of Nsako in Brixton, Johannesburg. Venue: The venue was surpisingly pleasant given the slightly dodgy neighbourhood and other nearby establishments. The host is fabulous and took my friend who arrived a bit...

The Dome Report
I did it. I hooked up with Nico, who has been there before and has some multi pitch climbing experience. We stayed in the Game Breeding Centre / Mokopane (Potgietersrus) Zoological gardens self catering unit, which has a couple of rooms each with two beds. Some share a bathroom, I got the one with en-suite...

Holy water
(Thanks Marshall) A train hits a bus filled with Catholic school girls and they all perish. They are in heaven trying to enter the Pearly Gates when St Peter asks the first girl: “Tiffany, have you ever had contact with a male organ?” She giggles and shyly replies: “Well, once I touched the head...

Weekend @ Boven end of May
I popped in for a climbing quicky at Waterval Boven, and decided to try out thr Rack Rail Inn, instead of the usual camping at Tranquilitas, which is stunning, but it’s cold and I was looking for a change. I’ll cut it short & say next time I’ll try Gustav & Alex’s rooms. At...

Innovation inc. : Anti-gravity “bra”
I spotted this startling phenomenon: Funny how those cut-outs make her body gravitate towards it. I’m sure, judging by the clear evidence shown above, if those cut-outs were to be placed above the bust line, the need for all those push-up & volumising bra’s would be eliminated by the anti-gravitational forces of “The Cut-Out”. I’m...
