For avid followers of this blog, it would appear that nothing cool was worth hunting in a cold climate since June 2012. Or perhaps that the climate warmed slightly, making the title of the blog erroneous... This, however, is not true. The climate is still cold, and there are still cool things worth hunting (and blogging about) - but the author was otherwise engaged in her reappearance on another social media site. How annoying...
A summary of some of the cool things that one would have written about during the less cold moments in said cold climate...:
1. Southbank in Summertime... loved the old school fairground feel of the Wonderground (complete with freakshow acts like the Lizard Man, scary rides, striped deck chairs, Tons of Pimms (jugs of) and hotdogs...) and the rooftop gardens...
2. Oh, another highlight was the little event called the Olympics... One was lucky enough to go and sit in the rain in a plastic poncho and watch beach volleyball. Mah-velous... Turns out it's not only scantily clad ladies who compete!!!
And the cheerleaders really... uhm. Well. What can I say... They were cheerful!
One interesting innovation that stood out for me at the Olympics was that foncy new sports tape... supposed to help with injuries. But looks really pretty too! And comes in multiple colours!!! I loves it.
3. Proms in the park - Fantastic annual concert in the park, featuring well known artists (like Kylie, whoop whoop!) singing with an orchestra! Kinda like Kirstenbosch except not... (as summer is only a week long here, it's cramped into a shorter time frame)
Note: Proms can even be enjoyed after a power-drinking session, seated on glaring strangers' blankets, while quaffing wine out of a plastic bottle (or *cough* multiple bottles)...
*sigh* And that only covers up until September!!!
Rather than task her memory too much, this blogger shall resume regular posts, as far too much sh*t happens for her wine addled memory to summarise in this fashion.
ta for now..
