Eating delicious fresh figs, hand picked on Sat morning at Hoogwater farm in Tulbach. Thanks @MidaMoo for thinking of me. #

Capitec sends me an sms each month telling me what I paid in fees (R22.75) vs what I earned in interest (R40.54). Nice hey? #

I love the feel of shaving with a new razor blade. Pity they are so expensive that I only experience it after days of hacking with a dull 1. #

Interesting, will try this, thanks! RT @wicusross: @RelaxWithDax Youtube video how to sharpen disposable razor blades http://bit.ly/gsiVzC #

Tonight is Pecha Kucha again. This time at CPUT and sponsored by Grolsch. So you have 2 reasons to go http://bit.ly/d2d1dF #

Lunch at Clos Malverne is the best value meal you will ever have (& an amazing view), read my review to find out more http://bit.ly/fQ1ekN #

Off to French Toast shortly to be introduced to Oldenburg wines. Should be working but after that cab franc… http://bit.ly/eAoeuy #

Gosh, these tapas at French Toast are going down a treat. Nice to have Manchego cheese again. And the Oldenburg wines are tip top. #

Hooting haversacks of horus, when u next eat at French Toast, order the aubergine fries. I hate aubergine. Phenomenal. #

Apparently we've managed to bully Brad into keeping the tataki on the menu for winter at Bistro 1682 #goodnews #

First Pecha Kucha presentation is about the bid for Cape Town to be World Design Capital in 2014. #

Feeling the onset of winter is a bit depressing. But the arrival of avocado season is a small consolation. #

Heard that people are able to interfere with the signal from your car remote so you think you've locked it but haven't? Happened to me. #

Interesting Fact: The Mount Nelson Hotel turned 112 last month. #

Can anybody recommend a competent local data cleaning service before I outsource this project to India? #

A cellphone cover/pouch that is also a business card holder #greatideas #

Agreed RT @BrianBerkmanZA: Best chicken salad is at Caffe Milano #

Busy preparing the class that I'm presenting at Reddam College tomorrow morning. Let's hope the kids find me interesting. Or at least scary. #

It's online magazine day… first up is the new edition of Crush http://bit.ly/eIgIQ5 #

Teenagers streaming into the class. I'm practising my stern face and tweeting. #

And next is the latest issue of Opulent Living online http://bit.ly/e6LegM #

I survived 2 classes of teenagers. Thankful that I'm not a teacher! Rewarding myself with a beer & burger at Bistro 1682. It's a top day… #

The warm up for Rocking the Daisies, Sowing the Seeds is happening next Sat. See details and buy tickets here http://bit.ly/e9qbSc #

Enjoyed the gourmet 'Steenburger' (R105). The fois gras was a treat, but surprisingly it was the homemade bun that really impressed. #

Just installed MS Office 2010 on my work PC. Let's see if it does anything new. Looks cool though. #

Interesting article in The Economist about gipsy brewers who rent space at big breweries to make their craft beer http://econ.st/esjZTN #

Tonight I'm off to the awards ceremony for that SAB pub lunch competition I judged. Looking forward to some cold beer. #

I'm slowly coming to the realisation that the vibrate function of my Blackberry does not work #nothappy #

And the winners of the pub lunch awards are: River Club and Cafe Verdi. #

Popped into San Julian with @mrtuckbox. TV's gone & a few wall decorations an improvement. Place is full & can recommend sangrita. #

Decided to visit The Reserve for the first time. This place is beautiful and I haven't seen this many hot women in one place for a long time #

Jislaaik, check out what they send you when you order by the bottle at The Reserve…hectique http://twitpic.com/4igfhu #

Having a Sat morning coffee @ Haas. Fab place & check out these regal chairs we have on the sidewalk http://twitpic.com/4inbf4 #

Left Haas, now having breakfast of champions at &Union with @MidaMoo. Don't tell my mom http://twitpic.com/4ink2c #

Checking out Wang Thai at the Waterfront. Been a while since I've had a waiter that doesn't know how to pour a beer. #

The Tom-Kha (spicy coconut soup) got a rave review but the dim sum is not nice. Loving the Wang Thai Tini cocktail. #

I wonder why the Asian dudes at the table over there got chop sticks with their food and we got spoons & forks? #

Everyone was happy with their main but Wang Thai was unable to give me a tax invoice, only a pro-forma. Not sure that is legal. #

Just filled up my petrol tank. R600. Ouch. #

Sneaky dinner at Beluga. Dim sum, Sushi, cocktails. Trying to convince myself it's not Monday tomorrow. Full day meeting with City of CT… #

We paid the bill then decided it's such nice evening we're going to stay and have another bottle of something #Beluga #
