In reply to Reuben Scicluna. I don't own an anorak. I generally wear a HANDIA UBAS shirt to dinner parties, in whatever colour blends with the terrain (ok, regulation CCE). Meta Para Aramide fibre, class B flame resistant, IRR. The dog's bollocks.

In reply to Reuben Scicluna. Eh? At least I held back from saying that guns are suppressed, not silenced, and the thingy fixed to the muzzle is a suppressor, not a silencer. A Schalldämpfer.

In reply to Why me?.

Sorry, I tried but its very difficult to understand the gist of the article. These people should perhaps write for illum or l-Orizzont.

One cannot ascribe Maltisism to these articles because not even literal translation into Maltese makes any sense. It’s a shame that there is no proper subbing before publication on the websites.

Despite the bad English, no attempt is made to correct the syntax errors that are immediately flagged by any decent word processor. A simple right-click on the mouse would eliminate simple spelling mistakes like “referendu”, “introductin”, “favourof” etc.

‘Well, at least one of Saviour Balzan’s employees must think that it is just a toy that daddy used to keep in the garage, or in the bedroom closet’.

I think you are wrong. According to il-Pupa, ‘Il-Botom’ , the father of Julia Farrugia, used to keep the sub-machingun in the Minister’s car. Tal-famus Perit Karmenu Vella, il-Guy.

OK, here’s an anorak joke:

Q: What is the difference between a sub-machine gun and a woman running a blog?

A: The sub-machine gun can be silenced.
