Sirion

Time flies, and it has been a year now, since i bought my daihatsu sirion. I think these 2 websites help me find this car.
Www.cars4sale.co.za
www.carfind.co.za

besides, from the sirion. Here's my other top picks of 2009.
1. Proton Savvy 1.2
2. Renault Twingo
3. Daihatsu charade celeb
4. Citroën C2 (but no automatic transmission available)
5. Daihatsu YRV
6. Chery QQ3 (from china. Yay!)
7. Honda Jazz
8. Kia Soul
9. Toyota Yaris T3 spirit
10. Nissan Micra

Pluriel

This is the citroën c3 Pluriel with a semi-automatic gearbox. Triptronic 1.6l engine. I think its a limited edition 2004. The mileage: 99thou plus. Price: R69900. Its fullhouse. Nice looking car. Very unique and, rare - to be seen on the roads. Individuality, at its finest. One of the best used cars i have seen this year. If only market car sales, would give us a better deal with this car. Surely, we'll take it.

Have myself a merry smartphone christmas

The yuletide season is coming. And the battle of smartphones is uprising. I can't decide which phone is right for me. iPhone 4 - this changes everything. Or the world's first phone sculpted from a solid piece of aluminum, the HTC Legend. I Liked the concepts of both phones. Prices are sharp and stiff. Appearances , both are cool and like swiss thins. Its hard to decide. Watch this space...

At the Johannesburg Zoo

Its a saturday. I took half day work (overtime) and by no means, I ended up in the zoo. As usual, I just tagged along with friends. Not much of an outdoor type, your blogger is. The Joburg Zoo, is quite big, a half-day isn't enough to tour the whole ground. Here are Some of my encounters in this jungle:
1. Scimitars
2. Peacocks
3. Elephants
4. African buffalos
5. Caracas
6. Monkeys (lots of them)
7. Aardwolf
8. Zebra
9. Giraffe
10. African wild pigs
11. Crocodiles
12. Ostrich
13. White lions
well, there's more, but my wife's tired of walking around haha! This zoo is very organized, well kept. And offers rides for recreation, an open park field for picnics. Entrance is R50. Shisas!

Milk Stout

I loved this dark beer from south africa. The castle milk stout. I tried mixing it with vanilla bar one ice cream, about 2weeks ago. While watching the live dvd of Big Country. It was a nasty mix float. Pls. Don't try it. Otherwise, you'll end up in the toilet.

My Vanilla Sky Coke Float

Summer is approaching. Its timely, since last week - I am crazy over Coke Floats. So curious, I tried making it at home. The first take: a ginger ale + vanilla ice cream - It was a mess (doesn't taste good either) The second try: Pepsi + vanilla ice cream + ice (a tip from my best man, for bouyancy purposes) it did work. And with a little help from google - put the cola slowly to avoid bubble overflow. Now, I'm enjoying my kind of float. Next time, I'm gonna try: Milk Stout Beer and Vanilla ice cream. I will let you know if the mix is quite right. %-)
