I see Cape Town as one big playground, and for a good part of the year I run around Cape Town being crazy, doing stupid things and acting the fool. There are moments of seriousness where I speak to powerful people, but that’s just part of what I need to do. It’s a given.
Anyway, after noticing that the temperatures are rising rapidly in Cape Town, I think it’s only a good idea that we all cool off. And in summer there is nothing better than to smash it up on boats and yachts. There is nothing something satisfying about docking off of Clifton and jumping into the ice cold water, then getting out and singing the high notes like the Gibb brothers from the Bee Gees. I call it the “Nutcracker note” Quite graphic.
I recall spending Charlie V’s birthday last year on some sort of boat, and it was spectacular. From the photo you might see this.
I underestimated Charlie V’s sneakiness
Quite an odd photo I won’t lie, but it’s part of our continuous party boy lifestyle that allows us to do these things and get away with them. On that particular day a few of the girlfriends were on board, but we locked them away for a while so we could have some boys time together. Oh and did we make use of that time. I was just chilling drinking a beer when Charlie V sneaked up on me from behind. Strange behaviour but is was good times. We sparked up a braai on the back of the boat and laughed at the people who were stupid enough to be swimming. However, ten minutes later we were swimming and it’s not fun. Clifton is deathly cold, and I’m more prone to spending my time at the braai with a drink while watching the girls rub coconut oil on themselves. You know…I’m interested in the moisturising properties of coconut oil and the way it interacts with the users skin when exposed to UV rays. You don’t believe me do you? Don’t worry, neither do I.
I just can’t wait to hit the boats again, it’s the most fun you can have with your clothes on. I mean…not to say our clothes did not come off…cough…umm…err…ok that’s enough for today.
Tomorrow we will speak again!
Peace, love and respect and don’t go too hard on yourselves, it’s only Monday. You have a whole week to do stuff your boss wants you to do. And if you don’t finish it this week…there is always next week.If he says “You’re fired”, then tell him Sean says that he is fired.
BOOM shakalaka!
