A Man Walks Into a Bar....

We've all done it....we've all had a drink or five and when its time to go home, our pals say to us "Are you okay to drive?" and the answer when we've had too many bevvies is :  "I'm fiiiiiine!!".

We become invincible, we become arrogant, we loose our inhibitions and think we are Superman.

Firstly this is NOT a sponsored post.  

Did  you know?  Research indicates that 50% of people who die on South African roads, are over the legal blood alcohol level?  That's HALF!  That's a frikken scary stats, Plonkers!

The legal limit for alcohol in the blood is 0.05gms per 100mls and the breath alcohol content limit is 0.24mls per 1000mls.  And did you know, it is illegal to refuse a blood test or breathalyser in South Africa?

If a driver is prosecuted and it is not proven that the alcohol content is less than 0.05 grams per 100 milliliters, it is assumed that the blood-alcohol level is over this limit. If convicted of a drink driving offence, the driver loses their licence for a minimum period and a hefty fine can also be issued.

So, wouldn't you rather have Scooter Angels on speed dial?

Two “Angels” are dispatched to your location within an hour of calling. One of them will drive you home safely in the comfort of your own vehicle, while the other follows to collect the designated driver afterwards. 

Could it be more simple? and safe!

Scooter Angels are in Joburg, Pretoria, Cape Town and Durban. 

Give them a ring when you need a sober driver!

Who are the world’s most valuable soccer players?

The FIFA World Cup in Brazil is around the corner and although each of the players in the 32 teams that are participating have to prove their worth, there are some who are considered more valuable than others. 

Gumtree.co.za has caught the soccer fever and released an interactive infographic of the world’s most valuable soccer players, ranked according to their performance, seniority, and of course – salaries. 

According to the infographic, Lionel Messi of Argentina has attained the coveted top spot, with a salary of R 227,910,016.00 and an impressive 27 goals behind his belt, and whilst Cristiano Ronaldo comes a close second in terms of performance value, he shouldn’t be too heart-broken about his ranking – the Real Madrid midfielder takes home a cool R300-million every year. 

As for top clubs, Bayern Munich and Barcelona has by far the most appearances in the top 100 – 11 of their players have been named on the list. In terms of leagues, the Premier League remains the best represented league with 29 players, ahead of La Liga with 26. 

Sadly only a handful of African players made the top 100 list, including Yayon Toure from the Ivory Coast (ranked 19th), Pierre Emerick Aubameyang from Gabon (79th), Samuel Eto’o from Cameroon (83rd), Mehdi Benatia from Morrocco (87th) and Emmanuel Emerike from Nigeria (97th). 

The infographic will allow users to find out exactly how much the top 100 earns, which positions are the most lucrative and the number of goals each player has scored in their career. It can be accessed on Gumtree, http://www.gumtree.co.za/pages/soccerplayersalary, South Africa’s # 1 free classifieds.
