Left: opening a wine bottle with @LeCreusetSA corkscrew. Right: good old "waiter's friend". I know which I'll be using in future!

The entire world is beginning to see Donal Trump as an impulsive, immature tyrant who is a sociopathic liar and the greatest flip-flopper the world has ever seen. From Canada to France, leaders are standing up and denouncing this fascist tyrant and dictator and calling him out.
US President Donald Trump has repeated the lie that South African farms are being confiscated on his social media platform on Friday. | @gerbjan

Please John, Alan, Helen and co, calm down. Relax. It’s too early to start these sabre rattling demands. Cool heads & egos in your pockets please. Take what comes your way, be inside the circle and calmly influence change & oversight from within. Sigh. timeslive.co.za/politics/202…
Thanks @emilejoubert for the best laugh I've had this week. winegoggle.co.za/2024/02/06/…
We lie, we defend the corrupt and liars, but it's OK because we are "renewing" our organisation (ANC deputy SG on SAFM this afternoon). And people still vote ANC.

"We're a bunch of liars who defend corruption" is a crazy thing to say in an election year

Just heard of the extremely sad passing of one of the true gentlemen of our industry - RIP Michael Olivier - you will forever be fondly remembered and thanks for the good times - heaven will only eat and drink better with you in attendance!

10 Things we've learnt about South Africans during the Rugby World Cup 🏉🇿🇦🏆:
1. Racism is an ongoing struggle within our country, but let another nation accuse one of ours of a racial slur and collectively we're ready to pounce #Kant
2. Bongi is one of the 44 South Africans who still speak Afrikaans #JaCharlize
3. Similarly, accuse us of not deserving the win on a public platform and 62 million of us are coming at you in all 12 official languages #EvenSignLanguage
4. Stadium lights get dimmed for the pyrotechnics show and South Africans worldwide assume Cyril took loadshedding to Paris #WeKantBelieve 🔦🕯
5. We're equally confused with Jacques and Rassie's light show because we've forgotten what to do when traffic lights are working 🚦🚨
6. If you want to really make us cross... make us wear turquoise instead of green and gold 💚💛
7. We're tired of being called resilient, but in the moments when we have Zero F's left to give.... the Springboks give us a Faf and we find reason to believe again ❤️🩹
8. We're so used to receiving kak news that when something positive happens we demand a public holiday to commemorate it #FamilyMeeting
9. We dare you to find a cooler captain #BeLikeSiya
10. Some may have made tough decisions to leave our beautiful country, others have made tough decisions to stay and fight for her... but no matter where we are - we are family 🌍💚 It's like the sibling relationship where we bicker and argue amongst ourselves, but let someone else insult us and we're defending like Pieter-Steph du Toit in the final.
We have so many reasons to be proud 🇿🇦! Not just of the Springboks but of our people who have united and supported, of our local brands and companies who have brought the gees and of our schools and parents who have encouraged the next generation to support and cheer for each other! We're leading from the bottom up 🇿🇦💚💛🏆

I've been blogging for just under 14 years and I can *finally* say this for one piece of content: 'I got 1 million views' 🥂🙏🏻 – at Cape Town, South Africa
Great review by @emilejoubert of 20 years of the brilliance that is @Vilafonte.
Which are SA's top 20 wine producers by volume? Can't find in SAWIS stats, so where to look? Any ideas @RicoBasson @emilejoubert @mikeratcliffe @wellredwinemag ?
Not a single restaurant outside the W.Cape & Gauteng worthy of consideration? @WWtaste @Eat_Out @AbiDonnelly #eatoutawards - taste.co.za/eat-out-woolwort…
