get yourself a double ticket to the Cape Town Durex ‘party of the year’ ft Crazy White Boy, Goldfish, Roger Goode & Gareth Cliff

Everyone’s been going a bit crazy over the Durex parties. This could be your night on Friday night at St Yves beach club in Camps Bay: Get the party going in one of the themed product chill rooms: relax for a massage in the warmth room or sip on cocktails while fire dancers turn up the heat. If guests can’t take the pace, the Play Tingle Chill room will cool you down. Guests looking for refreshment can make their way to the bar and enjoy Play Cherry or Play Pinacolada cocktails while getting down to the sounds of Goldfish, Crazy White Boy, Roger Goode & Gareth Cliff. It’s almost too much for one evening isn’t it?

If this sounds good to you and you’d quite like a double ticket to the EXCLUSIVE FRIDAY NIGHT event (the others you can buy tickets to, but not this one), just leave a comment below naming two flavours of Durex Play (you’ll find them somewhere in this blog post, except in their cocktail form) or mail me at editor@capetowngirl.com. Winners will be drawn and contacted on the Thursday night.

Click here to like Durex on facebook and stay up-to-date with the Play Parties – some amazing ones coming up including a Locnville party, and the Fat Man Scoop New Year’s Party in Durban. Clicky clicky!

It’s the Rugby World Cub!

cubdate: long cat is looooong

Long cat is looooooong

The cub has grown into a sausage cub. Not sure why his head isn’t growing in proportion to his body. We’re hoping it catches up. This is how he likes to cool down after a good ‘catch the end of the stick’ session, where JW drags a long stick around in circles and cub chases it. Goes on for hours. Good times.

Every day is a battle to not eat him up. We struggle.


CTC feat Jacub

There’s someone I’d like you to meet. His name is Jacub. And he’s 8 weeks old.

Jacub is the new addition to our family. We love him to bits!

Jacub enjoys napping with his parents, playing with his mouse, chasing his ball, standing on his hind legs and clapping his paws. JW is training him to become a Jock Atheletic Cub – hence his name, JAcub. Please welcome Jacub to the CTG family!

Just witnessed @mikesharman getting a barrel of iced cold water poured on his head. He got airwaved!

Bunch of us bloggers got punked by Airwaves. Hey, we had it better than Mike Sharman (above) who got a barrel of ice cold water dumped on him – fully clothed. To quote the Airwaves payoff line: “now that’s extreme”. Hmm.

My favorite gym manager shares the name of my favorite dress designer

Spent some time in the gym since February is no good for outdoor running unless you’re up before 7 or you run after 7 in the evening. It’s just too. Damn. Hot. Noticed for the first time that Wembley Virgin’s manager’s name is Calvin Klein. Couldn’t just walk away with a pic.

Woodlands Eatery for dinner

PD is moving to London next week, so we’re doing lots of stuff like eating out. Saturday night we went to Woodlands Eatery.

PD & AK

Enjoyed Risotto balls at Sevruga with MEJ on Sunday. And a spot of shopping.

Pink drinks at Sevruga

Spent some QT with Neurotic Harvey, who had the full-moon jitters.

Neurotic Harvey is just bouncing all over the place tonight

So lovely weekend then.

Marie Claire Naked Issue

Hurricane Vanessa posted some previews of the Marie Claire Naked Issue, coming out next Wednesday 16 February. We’re in it along with two of our favs – Kim Gray and PopYaCollar’s La Muse. We had great fun shooting this – we actually shot it twice! And we had a very enthusiastic car guard watching our, um, cars. The doggy in the pic belongs to photographer Mark Cameron, and her name is Viva. She’s husky cross Golden Retriever, and just the sweetest thing ever. Just look at those fluffy paws. The Marie Claire Naked Issue is in aid of the SPCA, and since we are a HUGE fan of beasties here at CTG (whippet updates, Cape Town Cat), we’d love it if you supported it.

As promised in my apology earlier, please accept this cat that turns itself into a bunneh as a gesture of goodwill for posting Clifton Shores. I can’t reiterate how sorry I am enough. Thanks @katedesmarais for the link.

Kitteh on my lap! His luck changed bigtime. This morning he was living in a drain, now he has a home.

He was found in a drain by Laura, and she took him to the vet and cleaned him up and now he’s just the happiest little cat chappy you’ll ever meet. What a sweetie.
