“Cape Town is big on coffee. Coffee fuels the creative mind. The creative mind fuels entrepreneurship.”

I think it’s more like:”coffee keeps the creative mind going, because it is forced to
work for crazy hours, or else no great creativity comes.”
Yes sorry to burst the comfort bubble but
creativity is really hard work, designers
only make you think it’s magic fearing if you
find out the truth (really hard work) you’ll think they’re crazy or really stupid (actually we enjoy it:o),…oops I’ve let the secret out:o. Anyway I should probably go back to work now,…where’s my coffee?

Haha “Try telling a Capetonian what to do, and he’ll either ignore you, stare at you blankly (while thinking about women / beach / surf / Nintendo)” – love it!

Brilliant. I totally agree with this.

“A large proportion of Capetonians are unemployable. ” Lol.

I am glad we Capetonians get some recognition.
