Here it is: it was by Karl Schembri not Matthew Vella. However he still wanted to hit him.

[Daphne – Please don’t post entire articles on the comments-board. A link is sufficient. Find the page again, copy what appears in the domain name bar at the top of the screen, and paste it here. It links automatically. You needn’t do anything else.]

Isn’t that what up-bringing, good or bad is all about? Plus the fact that certain character traits, attitudes, and on the negative side hang-ups, complexes etc are very often transmitted to the kids. Although I do believe that the social environment and academic development are important factors which ultimately are determining factors along with the genetic ones.

I am thinking your “fan” the prime minister, and didn’t Marie Benoit live there for some time?

Daphne, just curious – was not Josephine Burns Debono the professor’s mum? Remember her letters to The Times back in the 1970s/1980s?

[Daphne – I don’t remember them, but I do remember the ‘grown-ups’ remarking about them. Pro-Labour and pro-Mintoff, I believe? But then we can’t be blamed for our mothers. I wouldn’t be best pleased if anyone held my sons to account for their mother.]

He said that the most you speak to this guy the more your hands itch to hit him (or something in that vein, anyway !)

[Daphne – I don’t think so. Matthew Vella is almost as much of a prick as his boss.]

“Another month has passed since my last contribution to this newspaper and still no action was taken by the government to reduce the electricity tariffs. People are still left in the dark towards what will happen to the tariffs and what is the real reason why the govenment is taking this long”

Did anybody proof-read this article? I wonder.

Now, THAT scares me!
