Duncan’s Golf Day

Greetings all.

Shooo so as you may know I was away in George for my festive holiday this year. I had an awesome time and I got at least a little of what I wanted to get done sorted. Unfortunately that part of SA got drenched heavily and messed up my dream of a super duper sun drenched fry-fest. Was a bummer to go all the way there intent on sizzling my skin to a red mush, only to return with a piss poor tan that my friend from England laughed at….I’m soooo ashamed LOL.

Luckily my first two days in George were filled with sun and surf, it felt so good to be able to jump into the sea and not freeze to death instantly, Clifton water just doesn’t agree with me brrrrrr. I even managed to squeeze in a game of golf lol.
The fun part about the golfing was that I had never (in all my 26 years on Earth) played a game a single round, putt-putt most certainly doesn’t count. Although my putt-putt skills, which are actually pretty crap, were the only thing to save me. My long game is honestly pretty horrific and other poor hapless golfers intent on a relaxing day on the course had to duck and cover from my brutal attacks.

Why is behind Tuning tshirt design?

Why Tu and Ning of course!!!

No really guys - it’s a cru of 2 based in Thailand. The boy is TU and the gal is Ning.

Tuning focuses on trying to make socially uplifting comments with their tshirt designs or try to make people more aware of their environment and themselves : in short : they promote concepts like self-awareness, mastering the art of observation and and taking better care of our environment.

Nice-o one-O!!!!

Gun and Bullets Design

Ello there Peep’s from all sectors.

It’s a very groovy Saturday and I’m sitting in the Cape Town store trying to power up my sleepiness. Luckily I have a great way of starting my day…that’s of course with my good friend coffee and writing a blog for the Tshirt of the Day.
Today’s design, which is entitled simply: Gun and Bullets is super insanely cool. I had to have it as soon as I saw it…I have a big gun shirt addiction (aka: Biggusguniusboomboomitous).

Gun and Bullets from Tuning (who else) is one of those designs that just kicks mega bum no matter how u look at it….ok so maybe some people won’t enjoy the violent edge to the design, I understand that, but when I look at this design I think of one person and one person only: Dirty Harry.

Growing up I used to be a huge fan of Dirty Harry, with his hardcore street power, classic one liners and of course his big friggin gun, that thing can eclipse the sun when he pulls it out….then u have to just ask yourself one question….do u feel lucky punk?well do ya? Gun and Bullets is a design that really pulls on my heart strings of nostalgia.
I’m sure loads of people (like hippies and nursery school teachers) will be less likely to share this common connection, but hey, you can’t deny the quality of the design and the work that’s gone into the creation of it.
