 WE WON, WE WON, WE ROCK!! WOOOHOOO!!! The highest ranked team in the world set a record target of 434 runs, and despite anything those daft Auzzie commentators said about us choking, we pulled off the finest victory in arguably the best game of cricket ever played! I honestly thought it was all over after the Auzzies broke 300, but Gibbs and the boys showed absolute class and composure to make the most enthralling come-back ever. Those who called for Smith's head in the last series can kiss my ass! Now to give them a hiding in the Test series too!
Whew. What a game. I still get shivers thinking about it. Between that and the Oscar for 'Tsotsi', it's been a great month for South Africans and we should all be stoked.
 Alan, Dopescape SuicideAnyway, it was a plump fruity cheery on the top of a fine chocolaty weekend. Dopescape Suicide made their debut; or is it return... I'm not too sure but they still kick ass and had the Winston going off on Friday night! Alan had a gaping flesh wound in his head but decided to play anyway. Shame about the poor sound which had the right channel switching on and off intermittently throughout the whole gig. To quote Rich, the fact that Winston is a hole is “part of it's charm, but if you're gonna be a hole, at least get it right!" I agree man. When all a place has going for it is the music, try pull it off properly. Buy some new equipment. Splash out, it'll be worth it when people start talking about the quality of the venue.
 Point DevelopmentIt was beautiful down at Battery beach on Saturday afternoon; followed by a 21st that evening where everyone ate really, really well. Free food always tastes that tiny bit better. I missed Burn though, pretty bleak about that but it worked out well cause Korn (Bhora) were the ones I'd heard loads about and really wanted to see, and they won the round. Heard you were awesome boys, congrats and catch you in the finals!
 On Sunday night we all headed down to the Dockyard theater on the point waterfront. Check out the larnee property developments. Shame that you have to drive through the shithole that is Point road to get there, but hey I'm sure that won't deter the thousands of rich assholes and foreign buyers who want a luxury holiday flat close to the beach. Fine by me, just leave Zinkwazi to the rest of us!
 The show, “Masters of Rock: Volume 2" costs R100 at the special Sunday price, and includes a main course. My rump steak with pepper sauce arrived cold, so I was a bit miffed but it still tasted great after being thrown back on the grill. The musicians were incredibly talented, especially the high school kid on guitar who shredded out some impressive solos. They paid tribute to some real classics like Jimmi Hendrix, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath.
 That GuyYou know how “there's always one.."? Well here he is in the red shirt. This guy who looked (and probably smelt) like he'd just come from a hard day's fishing in the harbour was pissing off people left right and center, by shouting advice at the performers and crowd, and bumping past everyone as he swaggered up and down from the bar every two minutes. It was pretty funny though. Look at that sweat baby! Yeah!

funny you should come across someone really smelly. I had the displeasure of having someone in my car yesterday that smelt worse than a baby's nappy in the trash. I was eventually like "Dude, you smell really really bad, and I think you should like, sit over theeerrreee....." never again i tell you
stoked about the cricket and all and all! Well done SA! You have made us proud! Seems a rad weekend was had by all : )
I think you should have booted him out of your car,I hope he was a friend of yours and not a hitchhiker !!
and yes congrats South Africa on a sterling performance
Sounds yucky! There's nothing worse than a bad smell in a car. One time my boozed mate emptied an entire quart of black label under the passenger seat before he realised what was going on! That was a shocker.
Oh and one time I found a yogi sip bottle under my seat that was reeking and had started growing mould... sies!
my hat! an entire bucket of label! Frikken gross dude! And there is nothing worse than that bitter, sour smell of off dairy!
He was a mates mate, never met him b4 and hopefully will never see him again! My mother taught me to never pick up hitchhikers!
Ha ha ha! Until then....smell ya lata!
was that me? And that's a nut!
After yesterday's awsome cricket game i have taken a liking to cricket now. I have to shamefully admit that i've never followed a cricket game in my life!!!
Haha, I guess the moral of the story is don't knock it until you've tried it!
Now let's see if I can get you through an entire test... that's one match that lasts five straight days... :)
Noooooooo............, i don't think i'm quite at that stage of liking cricket THAT much!! But i guess i'll give it a bash.
Four words - one for the home boys and three for the Aussies:
SA - AWSOME!!!
OZ - CHOKE SHEEPSHAGGERS, CHOKE

Yeah, I don't really watch cricket, but I watched that game and I know that Australian cricketers (or is the commentators), are very arrogant and biased. I heard that most of Australia, because of the time difference thought that victory was a mere formality and went to sleep sure that they’d won the series only to wake up and discover… They hadn’t. Good old Herschelle the stoner. What a spectacle.
Ha HAAA! It's true. I'm in Australia and I watched the game till the wee hours of Monday morning Australian Eastern Standard Time. When I rolled up at the servo much later on that morning with a moerse babelaas to pick up the paper the gits had their front page of their sports section in the Herald Sun dedicated to a crushing Aussie victory. There, in extra large print, was that almost dreadful number, 434, followed by the words "Aussies smash record and South Africa's hearts!" After a double and a triple take I began to wonder how very dronk I really was the night before. What would people have thought of this Safrican running around in front of the big screen desperately calling for "someone, anyone who could perform the heimliech manouver, ha HA!" As it turned out, while I was pondering how bright the sun was at the zoo later that day. I overheard a bietjie taal near the Orang Utang enclosure. I noticed two Namibian Athletes in Melbourne for the commonwealth games puffin away on ciggies. (Psych!) Naturally I struck up a conversation which duely ended, after much joyous slander of skippy the bush kangaroo, with reassurance that the newspaper was a great example of falling further off a high horse or something like that. Suck on that skippy but good heavens dont choke. And that's a nut!
HAHAHA!! That's classic!!! I hope you bought a copy of that newspaper! If you did, please send me photos of the front page!! I swear I'll turn the Auz media into a laughing stock!!!
PLEASE god say you have a copy of that paper...
What is that in your picture? I can't make it out.
My pic is something I found on the internet. I expect it's just some random guy who's found a dead squirrel and photographed it with a spliff in mouth and one of those tiny liqour bottles you find in a hotel room mini-bar. And that's a nut! <- that's my signiture sign off.
What happened to Alan's head? That looks nasty.
He was attacked by a rabid, barbaric makeup artist!
