Four Seasons Before Lunch Gauteng (Pretoria)

-
 I have lived in Pretoria for half my life, but even at almost 50, l still am not ready for mornings like this . I step out of  home in the morning at 7 a.m., greeted by a warm, gentle breeze and sunshine so golden it felt like summer had arrived overnight. The sky was clear; the jacaranda trees glowed purple; the air smelled of warmth and possibility. “Perfect day,” l muttered, locking his door. By the time l drive out—five minutes later—the sky starts to be darkened. A cold wind came crawling in from nowhere, sweeping dust across the pavement. The temperature dropped so suddenly that  l have  to switch the heater for warmth. Laughing. “Ah, Pretoria… you never disappoint.” Halfway to the office, the heavens opened. Not soft rain— a storm . Sheets of water hammered the road, street gutters overflowed instantly, and distant thunder rolled like a grumpy giant waking up too early. People scattered, hiding under bus shelters already too full.  “Ten minutes ago...

Not All Floyd Mayweather’s Cars Are Black: White Bugatti For His 44th Birthday

They don’t call him Floyd “Money” Mayweather for nothing! The boxing champ turns 44 years old on February 24, but he’s gotten a head start on celebrations with the most flashy birthday bash in Florida.

It all went down on Thursday night at The Venue club in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The event was a double one, as pal Jas “Limitless” Mathur celebrated his birthday on the same occasion. According to TMZ, it was Jas who picked up the $700,000 bill for the double party.

Jas arrived at the location with Mayweather, in one of the boxer’s five Bugattis. You can catch a glimpse of the white luxury ride in the first video at the bottom of the page, and a blurry shot is also included in the gallery. Considering Mayweather has been posting a lot about his all-black luxury garage, including to humorously link it to Black History Month, it’s safe to say that he still has a passion for other car colors as well. Phew!

Wherever he’s been keeping the white Bugatti, he dusted it off and got it ready for the big night. A black car would have made less of an impression – and this was a night when the usually flashy “Money” wanted to be even more so. The boxing champ’s outfit included gold studs on his loafers and enough ice on his neck to sink the Titanic. On his wrist was a matching diamond timepiece – though not the $18 million Billionaire Watch he treated himself to a while back.

Because he was too busy entertaining, Mayweather hasn’t shared any detail of the bash, called Floyd’s Futuristic 44th Birthday Extravaganza, on social media. But once he does, we will find out more about the gifts he received and got himself, which will most surely include another addition to that famous, $10+-million car collection.

The same media outlet notes that he partied with celebrities like Rick Ross and Larsa Pipen, while Jacquees performed. President Joe Biden’s brother Frank Biden was also in attendance.



Editor's note:

The gallery also includes photos of Mayweather's all-black car collection.

Fighting Drug addiction

-
 Here's the story: We sat down with a man who had a harrowing journey with addiction. He began by telling us about his early days in tertiary education, where he would occasionally smoke dagga with friends. However, his focus remained on his studies, and he worked hard to graduate and secure a qualification. After landing a job, he started building a life for himself. He got married, bought a property, and even splurged on a car. Life was good, and he felt like he was on top of the world. But one fateful night, while out with friends, he was introduced to heavier narcotics. At first, the experience was exhilarating. He described it as an elevation from the mild high of dagga to a level 5 high, where he felt invincible and euphoric. The effects would last for days, allowing him to party from Friday to Sunday without sleep. The problem, however, began to manifest on Mondays and Tuesdays every week, when the withdrawal symptoms would kick in, and he'd struggle to function at work....

Ultra-Widebody Volkswagen Bus "Volkswide" Looks Like a Porsche Racing Van

  Home   >   News   >   Renderings It's easy to understand why a muscle car or a Ferrari is cool - the big engine and cool body. But car culture is also influenced by television, rarity, or simply a generation growing up with a particular vehicle. The Volkswagen Bus is a perfect example of this because it's slow, not sporty-looking, yet it can cost a lot of money.  16 photos The Bus is perhaps one of the least understood collectibles, right up there with bubble cars. You see them grabbing huge money at auctions, making it difficult to visualize why somebody wouldn't rather have a Ferrari or some 1960s Mustang. Comedian Gabriel Iglesias is known as the VW Bus King, as his collection of Vdubs is reportedly worth in excess of $3 million. The Hoonigan crew recently did a feature video, but we still had trouble picturing the value of these vehicles. Fortunately, there's a set of renderings that takes the visuals of the Microbus to the level where everybody...
