Juz, the Tick on Planet Capri

It is Black Tuesday in South Africa today

2011-11-22T11:39:00.001+02:00

We celebrated Fabio's Birthday with a Cat Scan (as one does).

2011-10-27T12:17:00.003+02:00

Here was the actual result

I've been a bad blogger.

2011-07-12T10:21:00.002+02:00

But please come hang with me on twitter.

I'm here.

I will blog again...as soon as I get my stupid ass scanner up and running again.

Juz's neighbour's cat formed the new habit of sleeping over.

Easter luncheons at the parentals with Jax and Careen

The untapped gold mine that is a 21st

2011-04-13T11:46:00.002+02:00

Juz went to visit Illie & Marcus and their new baby boy, Locki.

2011-04-04T13:31:00.001+02:00

Fabio went missing. Ronsie sent reinforcements.

2011-03-30T17:26:00.002+02:00

Of course he came home a few hours later - but then I battled to recognise him.

Juz, Careen and Lynni went to the southern most point in Africa and had lunch at the southern most restaurant in Africa.

2011-03-23T09:59:00.004+02:00

It is also here at Cape Agulhas where the Indian and the Atlantic oceans meet.
Of course, here in SA there's also a wine called Two Oceans. Go figure.

Juz & Careen went to Napier in the countryside to visit Lynni. She gave us the grand tour.

2011-03-21T21:18:00.006+02:00

Where is Napier?

This year at the Design Indaba Expo

2011-03-02T12:45:00.003+02:00

The Design Indaba Expo is an annual event in Cape Town where designers come together to showcase their work.
This year there seemed to be a lot of THIS

When the world is not enough you simply buy a piece of moon.

I kid you not - here's where I did it: http://www.moonestates.com/

Sloshed gardening

2011-01-26T08:48:00.002+02:00

Last week Jax moved into his new apartment. Juz went to see.

Back in Cape Town and Back to Normal

2011-01-19T11:11:00.002+02:00

New Year's Resolutions - Watch this space

2011-01-13T16:08:00.000+02:00

Juz is so grown up. He got a broker to come and see him.

2010-09-12T11:40:00.002+02:00

Hello Peeps, I'm not dead. Things have just been really busy with the studies and the new job. I will be back in full swing after the weekend.

2010-09-01T08:58:00.003+02:00

Today is 1 September, and in the Southern hemisphere the beginning of spring.
Well...

yes - I recycled last year's cartoon.
Back soon lovely peeps.

Lielie came to visit Juz & Fabio.

Healthy Living 101

2010-07-27T10:45:00.007+02:00

On another not-so-totally-health-related note; my friends, The Skinny Bitches, are running a competition on their blog. Check it out HERE. Eyes on the prize people, eyes on the prize.

Know thyself.

2010-07-19T12:55:00.001+02:00

Long time no blog. Allow me to bring you up to speed.

Yesterday @ Seidelberg Wine Estate

2010-07-05T14:03:00.003+02:00

Where is Seidelberg? Right HERE.
A lovely place to have one's party.
Happy Bday Tanya!

Skullky came to watch the soccer last night.

2010-06-28T17:08:00.003+02:00

Bafana won their match, and we celebrated...again.

2010-06-23T14:09:00.001+02:00

Long Time No Blog. Blame it on the World Cup.

2010-06-19T14:28:00.002+02:00

The FIFA World Cup. Philip, it is here.

Aromas and Aromas

2010-06-08T15:53:00.002+02:00

Cat pee & wine?

Don’t panic beautiful peeps, I’m back. Sorry for the silence.

2010-06-08T15:16:00.002+02:00

Okay let’s get down to business.
Here are the 10 differences in no specific order:

1) The two wine bottles in the right hand corner swap labels
2) The Champagne wine glass gets swapped for a beer (the little green guy who is not me).
3) Two eclairs became three eclairs.
4) The lollipop on the table flipped to the other side.
5) The shadows under the stuff on the table disappeared.
6) The bunny-ears (antenna) on the TV changed colour.
7) The red team on the telly changed to the yellow team.
8) Fabio appeared on the telly.
9) Careen’s walker lost a shadow.
10) The pie lost an air hole.

Nik, you can choose any existing cartoon for your mug or just tell me what you’d like on it. Drop me a mail.

And the winner is...

2010-06-03T10:01:00.005+02:00

Thank you for all the entries. Out of the 43 entries only 19 made it into the draw (having spotted all 10 differences correctly). Careen drew the name from the wine glass and we're happy to say a big fat congrats to Nik the Greek!
A big Thank You to all the beautiful peeps who entered. I got emails from people who simply wanted to buy a mug. Drop me a mail and we'll organise something. xxx

Nik, if you wouldn't mind making an acceptance speech in the comment box, it will be much appreciated.

Never be afraid to try something new.

2010-05-13T10:55:00.001+02:00

Last night Juz went to visit Skullky. Juz parked in the wrong spot. Juz had to spend the night. Juz wrote a note.

2010-05-12T11:16:00.017+02:00

I didn't really leave her the note. But I wanted to.
Thanks for letting me vent.

Yoh Fabio!

2010-05-11T10:13:00.002+02:00

Fear not my beautiful people, I will be back soon. Just in the middle of exams.

2010-05-07T16:09:00.000+02:00

Death came to fetch Chubby. It's a long journey to the afterlife if you're a hamster.

2010-04-28T11:49:00.004+02:00

Chubby is my friend (and neighbour) Kel's hamster.

Sonjeef came to visit with Baba Jack

Thank God, we're not going anywhere.

2010-04-20T17:43:00.003+02:00

This weekend was Ellie's Bday Picnic. Ouch!

2010-04-19T13:07:00.002+02:00

Open on both ends.

2010-03-18T16:35:00.001+02:00

This weekend Fabio went to visit his grandparents with Juz. Cats don't travel well.

2010-03-15T14:17:00.005+02:00

Careen, Tee & Skullky came over for a little drink last night.

2010-03-11T11:13:00.002+02:00

Why Fabio? Why there?

2010-03-10T12:07:00.000+02:00

Long time no blog. Things have been manic. But I will be drunk back next week.

2010-03-05T15:24:00.004+02:00

Elo and Juz went to the Design Indaba and saw Li Edelkoort and Martha Stewert, amongst others.

2010-02-26T17:21:00.006+02:00

Li Edelkoort?
Martha Stewert?

Juz & Skullky Went to Wish Juz's Mom a Happy B-Day

2010-02-22T09:32:00.001+02:00

Do not go the Dubliner in Long Street when you're already drunk out of your skull.

2010-02-20T15:41:00.006+02:00

Stupid Bloody Stockholm Syndrome

2010-02-18T10:03:00.005+02:00

Well Gail, I hope you're happy.
But it did make you the winner.
A Big congrats from the ticks.

Runners-up - I will be in touch.
It would be great if you guys can take a pic of you with your mug, so I can post it at a later stage.

For those of you who celebrate: Happy V-Day...bitches.

2010-02-14T19:05:00.002+02:00

Sleepless nights, cold sweats, death threats, suicide attempts...this competition is getting out of hand!

2010-02-12T11:42:00.013+02:00

I've received so many entries, that I decided there should be more than one mug up for grabs.

Just look at this creative entry from Ryan:

Ronsie made a compelling argument through her illustrations:

Gail decided to play dirty:

very dirty indeed:

Thanks for all your entries!
3 mugs up for grabs. And I will get an objective non-blogger to judge all the entries.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go get drunk.

Anual Checkup

Hair of the Dog

2010-01-27T10:44:00.000+02:00

Juz is really struggling to get an outfit for the J&B Met.

2010-01-26T12:49:00.004+02:00

What's the J&B Met?

Juz & El watched Avatar. Poor Aliens.

2010-01-25T11:43:00.003+02:00

Behind with work due to partying.

2010-01-22T13:30:00.002+02:00

Weeknight out = Weekday in...tub

2010-01-20T15:04:00.003+02:00

Careen, Illie & Marcus came over this weekend - glug glug glug.

2010-01-19T13:03:00.002+02:00

El installed ceiling fans - now everything is evaporating too fast.

2010-01-14T17:27:00.002+02:00

While Fabio slept, Juz took the opportunity to save his furniture.

2010-01-13T10:18:00.002+02:00

It was Juz's Dad's B-Day Dinner - the apple did not fall far indeed.

2010-01-11T10:09:00.003+02:00

Thanks Lala!

The reason Juz was feeling rough this morning

2010-01-08T09:45:00.003+02:00

What a festive season (om nom nom nom) and we got a cat (om nom nom nom), his name is Fabio...om nom nom nom.

2010-01-06T12:29:00.000+02:00

Special thanks to Mario for naming Fabio.

What a year!

2009-12-23T13:43:00.004+02:00

To all my followers and readers: you guys rock and I wish you all a fantastic Christmas and New Year.
As you can see the cast of this little blog has grown quite a bit and I wish to add many more new faces in the new year. So please take it easy and don't party too hard...NOT!

It is of utmost importance to pair the correct wine with the correct food.

Back from Franskraal.

2009-11-30T10:36:00.002+02:00

Off to Franskraal for the weekend with Lala and Jaboubs.

2009-11-27T15:35:00.003+02:00

Go figure.

2009-11-26T11:15:00.002+02:00

No Blog in 4 days - I'll tell you why: Art exhibition (with booze), babysat poo-ing puppy (with booze), boat & dinner party (with booze)...

Sonjeef's eggo is preggo.

2009-11-19T11:20:00.001+02:00

The Silly Season brings so many decisions.

2009-11-18T17:01:00.003+02:00

Aah, The Law of Attraction.

2009-11-16T11:41:00.001+02:00

Yep, it's been one of those weeks. Jax decided to check up on us.

2009-11-13T11:39:00.002+02:00

Luckily the weekend is here, so we'll have to up it a notch.

Last night Skull-ky and Maximus came over for pancakes.

2009-11-12T12:18:00.002+02:00

That's a really old bottle of Vodka btw.
What's Crêpes Suzette?

Juz, El & Tee went to fetch Juz’s car (Finally Fixed!) Then they had dinner with Juz’s parental units. (Definitely cut from the same cloth.)

2009-11-11T12:23:00.001+02:00

Last night El treated Juz to some fat free ice cream. "Fat Free Ice Cream?" - I hear you ask.

2009-11-10T09:50:00.002+02:00

Juz was having a little chat with Elo this morning about his weekend ahead.

2009-11-06T11:00:00.003+02:00

Juz's car broke down on his way to work. Three Bergies helped. One was on a crutch - I kid you not.

2009-11-05T11:49:00.004+02:00

What's a Bergie?

It was Lala's Art Exhibition Last Night.

2009-11-04T09:43:00.002+02:00

Juz & El painted the lounge - we mixed our own colour - very brave.

2009-11-03T08:41:00.002+02:00

A Night on the Town - and every cent well spent.
