Warm greetings once more. The truth is that this newsletter could have been called whatever you want it to be as there is not one singular superlative that can describe what this past weekend was like.

Sipho “Hotstix” Mabuse addressed the delegates on day one, 22 March, of the 2010 Music Exchange conference discussing why SA musicians are not resilient enough... Continue Reading →

The Met you have to love it! A social gathering offering the full spectrum of Cape Town society and what fun it was. Let’s leave the race for a moment, besides Mother Russia destroying my chances of a winning my Quartet bet. The quartet paid over R13 000. The fun and laughter was to be... Continue Reading →
On current form, Pocket is IMPOSSIBLE to oppose. At the weights, he has them cold. Kapil I like strongly, but it's a little far for him - big place chance.
