Gotcha you SOB

7 November 2015 By Alan Straton

Do you recognise this man?

One week ago two miscreants stole three CCTV cameras from the perimeter of a Newton Park business. At the time MyPE called one of them out as a Car Guard. (See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DIc1_HVNqY) At 05:11 this morning (Saturday 7 November 2015) the more brazen of the two popped back to steal more CCTV Cameras. BUT, he had obviously been smoking too much 'pappegaai twak" (dagga to you!) as one can clearly see his grinning face in the video. According to the law this particular … [Read more...] about Gotcha you SOB

Watch as a business in Newton Park, Port Elizabeth has three CCTV Cameras stolen from the perimeter in the early hours of Sunday Morning. In the first scene we see a miscreant carrying a car guard vest making his way to the camera pointing to Mangold Street. Subsequent scenes show how the two manhandle the cameras off of their mountings. https://youtu.be/3DIc1_HVNqY Creator: Alan Straton Posted to MyPE by: Alan Straton Submit your favourite Port Elizabeth, Uitenhage and Despatch … [Read more...] about Car Guard Violates CCTV Cameras

Anarchy in 2nd Avenue, Summerstrand

20 January 2014 By Alan Straton

Port Elizabeth's famous Traffic Cops missed out on a great opportunity to have a bit of fun and rake in piles of cash this past Sunday 19 January 2014. As we turned onto the walkway along Hobie Beach yesterday we noticed cars parked all along the grassed section stretching from Hobie Beach all the way to the turn off to Pollock. Initially we shrugged it off as some kind of organised event but upon closer inspection we saw that the entrance gate to the grassed area off of 2nd Avenue, … [Read more...] about Anarchy in 2nd Avenue, Summerstrand

Pay the Car Guard using his Cellphone Number

7 September 2011 By Alan Straton

First National Bank (FNB) today announced its latest innovation, Pay2Cell - a solution that allows FNB account holders to make payments to other FNB account holders using only the recipient's cellphone number. A first in South Africa, the solution omits the need to remember long account details and also allows the recipient to keep their banking details private. It is a central part of the bank's shift towards electronic banking, as it allows a full basket of transactions without either cards … [Read more...] about Pay the Car Guard using his Cellphone Number

Weekend Post Taking MyPE for a Ride

17 July 2011 By Alan Straton

I used to wonder just how photographers could recognise their own images amongst the many millions that are published on the internet on a daily basis. I wonder no more as after many years of taking photographs I seem to have developed a style that I, at least, recognise almost instantly. Disturbing to me is that large media houses have increasingly been using my images without even bothering to ask or accredit MyPE or myself as the originator. In the recent past The Daily Despatch and … [Read more...] about Weekend Post Taking MyPE for a Ride
