From BBC Food to T*M*A*S
The day before we arrived at the Beach Camp last week, there had been a mini production going on with the filming of the second series of Justin Bonello's Cooked: Weekend's Away for BBC Food. The idea of taking a whole lot of friends away for a weekend, and cooking up some storming meals, while filming the lot, just does not seem like hard work to me!Thing is that I went to school with Justin, and was in his sister Tanya's class, so it's great how leaving your secure home area by visiting a new place, you not only get to meet people from around the world, but from your own past too!
I think I need to sit down and find more reasons to go and chill in Paternoster!
But, back at the office things have been running very nicely, and Angie & Denise have had quite a few awesome bookings come through, that I'll chat about as they come on in time.As a small hint about one of the artists we've confirmed, we do want to congratulate Dozi on getting engaged yesterday!
He will be sending through some material for me to upload and get out there, so more about this English/Afrikaans/Zulu singing man who also gave us that wonderful version of 'Die Donkie' (The Donkey):
Ja die donkie is 'n wonderlike ding (Yes, the donkey is a wonderful thing)
O, die donkie is 'n wonderlike ding (o, the donkey is a wonderful thing)
Hy trek as hy staan en hy vrek as hy gaan, (He pulls as he stands, he dies as he goes)
Die donkie is 'n wonderlike ding (The donkey is a wonderful thing)
On another exciting note - it looks like we have our first tentative date for the official launch of our new sites, and iaminawe is going to be working their butts off to get the whole Peak stable streamlined and looking funky!
They have been very busy of late, and now that they have the 2007 Design Indaba behind them, we are next in line! Gregg sent me a short clip of some of the stuff they have been putting together for Corne & Twakkies T*M*A*S (The Most Amazing Show), and so I'll end off with some of their animations!
Have a great week folks!
