PM’s visit Driving home from my morning swim at Ħondoq I was very surprised and pleased to see groups of workers cleaning and tidying Qala. Apparently, the prime minister was scheduled to visit and these extra workers had been drafted in to help the solitary street sweeper who normally does his best to keep Qala clean.

Sadly, the visit was cancelled but it made me wonder if perhaps Robert Abela might be persuaded to visit more often, say, once a month, and then the entire village and surroundings would get cleaned and tidied on a monthly basis. I would be happy to stand him a coffee or whatever appropriate beverage depending on the time of day and I am sure he would be welcomed by the many party faithful frequenting Qala square. Perhaps he would like to sample the sea breezes down at Ħondoq as we know he likes the seaside. I am sure he would enjoy a monthly visit to a quiet, more rural Qala, away from the madness which is now Malta.
