I have over 25 years of jazz broadcasting experience in both the community and public broadcast media. I present and produce my online jazz radio show, The Jazz Rendezvous Radio Pinotage, Coffee & Stockvel Show that includes The Klutz In The Kitchen & Wingerd Griep en Ander Stories (Vineyard Flu and Other Stories also known as The Wrath of the Grape) features.

The Klutz found that so many singles, couples and members of The Venerable and Ancient Order of the Tribe of Eld seldom cook for themselves and therefore decided it was time to investigate simple, quick and easy Apéritif, Amuse-Buche, Appetiser/Hors d'oeuvres, Entrees/Plat Principal, Dessert & Digestif recipes that any cooking challenged klutz could rustle up, in a flash. The Klutz also writes Straight Talkin' No Punches Pulled Restaurant, Bisto, Cafe, Pub, Food Truck, Street Food & Take Away Grub n' Cooking Maguffta Reviews and looks for interesting Foody Goodies, Utensils & Titbits n' Foody Goody News .

As a Vinoesta, (a word made up by the Klutz) to describe any recreational quaffer of aged fermented juices of the grape of various varietals. I host chats and live on air tastings from time to time with the makers, movers and shakers in the is field. The Wingerd Griep en Ander Stories segment features the product of some of Cape's best wine makers, craft beer purveyors and Cape distillers of potato, juniper berries and other such delicacies to produce varied nectars of the gods.

I am an enthusiastic cook and passionate wine and beer lover and am an avid rugby and Cricket fan, Consummate Puppy & Kitten Petter, Ardent Jazz, Blues, Latin & World Jazz Disciple, Pinotage Groupie, and in Winter a Practised Glühwein Maker and Imbiber. I am an ardent Jazz, Blues, Latin & World Jazz Music Disciple. I further enjoy watching movies and documentaries and visiting the odd restaurant or two from time to time.
