A Hot hello from a seriously Kewl South Africa! February being Valentine's month - the spotlight falls on the very entertaining, sometimes brave and beautiful, but often ridiculous trend of big gestures & great stunts to propose. The new Bro wish is: "Hope you survive the proposal mate!"
West Coast & Inland
2013 started with a bang, that‟s for sure. I think the load on school-going children is more and more each year and ultimately the load on parents too as we drive the taxi‟s that must get our children to the various events. So putting it mildly, I am a wee bit weak in the knees already and we are in month 2 only.What does Nina have in store for you this month....
The new ways to propose Pressure is on as celebrities find ever grander ways to pop the question. Last year a flux of newly engaged celebrities flaunted some of the biggest diamonds ever seen on a finger. Angelina Jolie's £500,000 500,000.00 GBP = 6,878,254.35 ZAR and Keira Knightley's ring rang at £40,000 40,000.00 GBP = 550,260.35 ZAR. And there I was thinking
that Love was priceless. I prefer the Ghippies (Glamorous Hardworking Hippies) with fading tattooed pledges & Love in their behaviour. Dowager Countess of Grantham (Maggie Smith) obviously disagrees: "Nothing succeeds like excess." Downton Abbey season 3 available at DVD Gourmet in Sylvia Smith's Gallery, Hemel & Aarde Village.
February and March are packed with events for all. Ghippies, Glamour cookies, Gorillas, Garagistes, fitness freaks, fakes, foreigners... you name it.

Cape Argus PicknPay Cycle Tour: 10 March 2013 The events history dates back to 1977 when recreational cycling hardly existed in South Africa. Two Cape business people, Bill Mylrea and John Stegmann, had a dream to promote cycling as a sport in the country. They organised the "Big Ride-In" where a few hundred cyclists, headed by mayor John Tyers, rode up Adderley and Darling Streets as a publicity stunt. From those humble beginnings, the ACT has grown into a major international event, billed as "the biggest cycling event in the southern hemisphere". Last year, the organisers set the cut-off at 25 000 but a flood of entries forced them to up the limit to 27 200. Still, 1 600 disappointed cyclists were left without a race number. And consider this for growth. Twelve years ago, 1 440 litres of Coke was enough to refresh all participants and officials. Nowadays, over 10 000 litres and 27 000 cans are needed to do the trick. The Cape Town Carnival brings South Africans together to celebrate our culture and heritage;
