BARREL OF LAUGHS:

Have you ever thought of a comedy wine tasting? Well it’s the best way to entertain your guests while they snack or eat and try new wines. Some comedy to lighten the palate! Comedia was at The Wacky Wine Weekend in Robertson. Go!

COCKS ON THE BLOGS

Our guest blogger. MARTIN EVANS: with a no ‘products down your throat’ vibe, and the most fucked up hairstyle since ‘Animal’, makes regular observations and hits the nail on the head or makes it seem like he’s been hit on the head… He had a broken leg and sat at home all day for a year, so he’s born to Blog. He’s been sitting at home for 3 years since! Go to blog!
