MALTA TOUR – DAY 6 – EASTER SUNDAY SUNDAY 1ST APRIL 2018It is Easter Sunday, the 1st of April 2018!We have been less than honest with you.

MALTA DIARY – DAY 2 – WED 28 MARCH ‘18What a day!First darkness did our Hotel no justice.It is magnificent. The front of the Hotel is on the coast with spectacular views of the magnificently blue Mediterranean Sea.

MALTA TOUR – DAY 1 – 27TH MARCH 2018Mother. Relax!We have all arrived safe and well in Malta.It was a long day.Just waiting to go seemed to drag and drag.

ADSL MALTA DIARY 2018PROLOGUEI never really liked Ophelia.It wasn’t really her fault.More to do with Bill Shakespeare really and the fact that I had Hamlet for the Leaving Cert.But then she blew up quite the storm back in October to herald the most awful seemingly endless winter ever. Poor auld Boxer was at his wits end! Run off his feet!But I was quite...
