Being the “Steri Girl” has its perks (beyond having an endless supply of milky goodness)! Last week I got to sit in on…(wait for it)….(a bit more)..A Van Coke Kartel rehearsal!(u-hu!) How freakin rad is that! They’re new album “Skop,Skiet & Donner” is totally BEdonnerd.

In true VCK style they “skop, skiet and donner” down memory lane, singing about being Capetonians, partying endlessly and hanging out.

If you’re in the mood to headbang and unleash your inner freak, get the cd

And uh check out da pecks :

Dylan Jones #2

A note on Dylan’s design:

“It’s meant to remind you of that age of innocence where your happiness was guaranteed. And if your childhood never provided this feeling, it serves to awaken you to the fact that the purity of an innocent child like playing action can move you to discovering it. It will become a mantra for not taking life to seriously & occasionally remembering that we’ve got to take ourselves back to a simple relaxing place to find perspective on where we are now.

Bring back the swings and re-disscover the joy of childhood. And do it with a good ‘ol Steri-Stumpie. Whether you like to make a hole in the bottom with your badge pin or strategically aim a straw and pierce the bottle to get to the goodness, you can’t deny the relaxing effect that an icon of our generation provides.” - Dylan Jones, Age 22 going on 10

Q. So feeling the Steri Dinner vibes. Steri for dessert too, yes? What’s your favourite flavour Steri Stumpie?

A. Chocolate for sure.

Q. A lot of people like chocolate. But then again, everyone has their favourite. So would you say Steri Stumpies help you with your ideas?

A. Music, books, boredom and people.
