Banksy and the Queen
Banksy unveils his ‘Er-dition’ to the Queen’s 60’th jubilee and he’s going viral with this one.
The print is available for full download and printing and spreading is encouraged.
What’s up with the ‘Er’ you might say? Basically the artist (plus some others) question what exactly the Queen has been doing for past 60 years…
We don’t know much about the Royals but seems Banksy has a good point.

Mojito Embassy
The guys from Havana Club know how to put together a brand experience like no one else. The Havana Club Mojito Embassy opened recently in Milan. Perfect timing for a summer in the city.
Seriously amazing work in an amazing city.

Wise words for Wednesday
We all work well under pressure, most of us (depending on how much and for how long). So just for today embrace it and turn it into something awesome.
Look at us getting all motivational on you.
If it’s up in neon it must be true… right?
Memories live forever
We like this print by Marco Angeles and we thought we would share it with you… you know because that’s how we roll.
Happy Tuesday.

Damien Hirst, Cow & Chicken
Wow. Art is a weird industry. After sharks & skulls Mr Hirst’s has turned his attention to domestic animals. His latest piece titled ‘Cock & Bull’ (obviously) was commissioned by UK-based restaurant ‘The Tramshed’.
Guess it’s ok… but would you want a relative to your dinner watching you from above? We prefer eating our steak guilt free.
Wonder where he gets all the formaldehyde from?

Temper Trap go 1984
The Temper Trap. We were never huge fans but the more we listen to them more we like them. This latest music video for ‘Need your love’ has also helped to seal the deal for us.
Classic is an understatement.
So 80’s, so wonderful.
Good wood art
Yeah today is bit of a skate-inspired day. Good Wood is a skate art exhibition happening state-side all in the name of raising money to build a new skate park in Detroit. Kids gotta have somewhere to skate and it’s great art.
Maybe Cape Town should start thinking like this as well… instead they banned skating.
Come on godzilla, come on.
Keeping it in the Familia
Loving the work of local skate co Familia.
Nice name, great design. How about an e&e deck guys? Come on… you know you wanna.

The Sunday Snack
You can’t say we don’t keep it real… sure we feature a lot of recipes but every now and again we like to put proof into pudding. We just finished making this Apple Ginger Crumble because that’s what we felt like for tonight’s Sunday Snack and it’s so good.
It’s the right kind of snack for an almost-winters night.
Enjoy.

Friday milkshake
Been a long week for you? Yeah us too… We have just the drink to add a little sunshine to the end of it: A peanut butter cafe mocha milkshake.
If it’s been a REALLY long week add some Jack Daniels to the mix.
Enjoy.

Japan streetview
The Japanese… all about the detail: from their food packaging to their stationary and now even the manhole covers.
Most definitely on our top 5 travel destinations.

The cat from space
There was a classic movie from the 80’s about a cat from space that could talk. This Space Cat poster brewed up some nostalgic memories.
Good times.
