Cape Town Out in Africa Film Festival

Here is the link to the website for the Out In Africa South African Gay & Lesbian Film Festival which kicks off in Cape Town from the 11th - 21st September 2008 at the V&A Waterfrant. Check it out for news, reviews and titbits about everything, from this year's queer films, arts and culture, health, or just about anything that catches their eye.

New gay website

Cape Town's Andy Wicks (right, seen with friend Sebastian at the Loft Lounge) has just launched his new website aimed at the gay market. GayShare is an excellent site themed to Work, Live and Play gay in South Africa. It's an opportunity for gay business owners and event organisers to market themselves to the exclusively gay community in South Africa online. Well done Andy and your team for an excellent new addition to our community internet and business needs.

Tourists in Cape Town

For Llewellyn's birthday we decided to do the tourist thing and booked into one of the delightful apartments in the gay village around Waterkant Road in Cape Town. We love drinking wine and a bonus was that the Stellenbosch Wine Festival was on in this town at the centre of the Wine region about 30 mins drive out of the city.

In the photos from top to bottom are Flowers, Llewellyn and Dave enjoying the Wine Fest and making new friends; Llewellyn and Dave at the Victoria and Albert Waterfront with Table Mountain in the background; Llewellyn taking a stroll up the cobbled road outside our apartment in the gay village; a seagull giving us the beady eye at the Waterfront.. we could also see some seals frolicking in the harbour waters just a little further out. What a wonderful birthday in the Mother City!!
