Attie Heunis & Family

Ek is nie iemand wat gewoonlik e-pos aanstuur nie en ek vee hulle gewoonlik vinnig uit maar ‘n kollega het hierdie ene vandag gestuur wat vir my regtig snaaks was. Dit is ware aanhalings deur All Black en Wallabie rugbyspelers en afrigters. Van hulle is kostelik. Ek dink darem regtig nie die Bokke is so onnosel [...]

I have just seen the trailer for John van der Ruit’s hilarious book, Spud and it looks promising. Due for release in in November 2010, the movie tells the story of Spud, a boy going to school in the prestigious Natal private school, Michaelhouse. The book was a huge hit in South Africa and the [...]

Like so many people (including American rock god Fred Durst, top-of-the-pops icon Katie Perry and Riviersonderend) I have been blown away by South-Africa’s new runaway band Die Antwoord. Everybody who is anybody is talking about this band – and most of the buzz isn’t even in South Africa! Some of their songs have had more [...]

Toe ek grootgeword het was die Boeresport een van die beste goed omtrent Desember vakansies by Boesmans. Ek is seker dit was altyd op die 1ste gewees, maar die jaar was dit die 31ste Desember. Die Boeresport word afgeskop deur ‘n marathon tussen Boesmans mond en Kwaaihoek. Daarna is dit naellope en die oggend hoogtepunt: [...]

I remember seeing this right after 911 and thinking it was fantastic. Yesterday I was singing the famous Banana Boat Song by Harry Belafonte to my daughter, but I kept on getting mixed up between the real words and the parody! That just shows how great the parody is.

This weekend we had the inaugural Boesmansriviermond BigBash. The idea being to have a party for people our age in and around Bushman’s. We organised it a bit late and not for the absolute best time (in the school holidays) so many people couldn’t make it, but despite that everybody that was there had a [...]

Absolutely adore this. Keep your eyes on the expressions of the Hippo. Even Nick Parks from Wallace & Grommit must be impressed by this. If this doesn’t play, go directly to Youtube.

I entered the eighties as a 7-year old and left it when I was 17. This beautiful video by the Mint Brothers encapsulates the 80s in America brilliantly. I can just see all the movies from that era flash in front of me now. The song (also very eighties) is Sister Christian by the Night [...]

A tragedy indeed!
