Anybody here remember that TV comedy series &#039;PT 73&#039; back in the early 70s?]]></description>

Oh well. She can be anybody&#039;s niece for all I care. My family pedigree is not exactly stellar. But really. Director of Defence. Who probably can&#039;t tell a Scud from an Exocet (It-Torca or Kullhadd or whatever it was published one to illustrate the story on TEFGHU MISSILI LEJN MALTA. An error illustrating a lie, made believable by ignorance. And not one word from the Defence Directorate.)]]></description>

I wouldn&#039;t have known that. Can&#039;t see anything distinctive in the eyebrows. What with the enormous shades and all.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - Ray Pace failed to specify that George Vella is Mrs Frazier&#039;s uncle only by marriage. He&#039;s married to Mrs Frazier&#039;s aunt (Grima).]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

Such fine logic, yours. If I had been fighting in Misrata I wouldn&#039;t have been lambasting the Maltese government. My plea to my Prime Minster and his government is to let us - if he really believes all that tripe about Malta sovrana - fight and possibly die for our sovereign country. We&#039;re not all cut out to be engineers and web developers, you know.]]></description>

Truly the judgement of an armchair critic. Where were you, Baxxter? Hiding behind your nom de guerre, presumably, whilst fighting in Misurata againstr Ghaddafi?

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - The point is, Mario, that NOBODY from Malta fought in Misurata against Gaddafi, not our director of defence and certainly not our armed forces. We are a neutral country with an army we never plan on using, except to deliver boxes of food from the warehouse to the docks - not even all the way to Misurata itself (leave that to private initiative) because that might not be neutral.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

Is the Brigadier related to Tonio Borg? He sounds just like him. There&#039;s a drinking game somewhere in that video - down something whenever the brigadier says &quot;collective eff-a-rt.&quot;

If anyone attacks our dear Republic, we&#039;re going to just stand on the cliffs, stare our enemies down and talk in a nasal drawl. Then we&#039;d all go for coffee at The Ferries.]]></description>
