    Address and opening hours, please?

  2. George says:

    brilliant!

  3. Ask the staff to touch you? OK, as long as they are girls.

  4. Pecksniff says:

    This one beats them all. I hope that there are male and female staff.
    I have been laughing since I first saw this picture. Priceless.

  5. Jozef says:

    Isn’t that soliciting in public?

    Back to menus. Take a look at what our latest MEP is offering:

    Perverts.

    One sales girl told my aunt who wanted to buy birthday cards for her grandchildren that the cards for niece and nephew have the same meaning.

  10. CPS says:

    The word ‘yourself’ was added later by someone else. Gahlija, cara daqs il -kristal.

    [Daphne – Hardly. It’s exactly the same handwriting.]

    They know not what they do, much less how they write,even less what they write.

    They all seem to flock together.

    Sad story..

    I quote from The Times: “He had earlier been seen asleep in the stationery car.”

    And no, there should be no allowance for typos . That’s what proof readers are paid for.

    http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20111202/local/man-dies-as-car-falls-into-the-sea.396443

    [Daphne – You read that story and all you could think about was the spelling mistake? A young man died because he was exhausted and took the wrong turning.]

    • thomas pullicino says:

      Was that a statement or a question ?

      I did comment it as being a sad story, and indeed it is.

      But you should not have “presumed” that all I could think about was the typo.

      • No problem says:

        You did not mention the sad loss of the boy (for he is still a boy at 21).

        You could have chosen another story. There are lots of similar mistakes in The Times. Just go and look for them if you like.

    An atrocious performace by Malta’s Beauty Ambassador..

    Honestly, this did not make me proud to be Maltese.

    [Daphne – It’s been up on this blog already. Anyway, beauty pageant queens are not expected to be intellectual stars.]

  16. etimologo says:

    Some progress has been made nonetheless. In my time, we were just admonished by some fulminating Lenten preachers at school not to touch ourselves or else risk a crooked spine, blindness and insanity…

    Really…wouldn’t it be better if notices were put up in Maltese if people can’t speak English? This gem was written on the The Times blog by a graduate this morning: “This is unacceptable that academics abuse from their power.”

  17. Pecksniff says:

    Now that’s what I call pre, during and after sales sevice.

  18. anthony says:

    I wouldn’t expect anything very much at that price.

  19. John Schembri says:

    You’re having a whale of a time, Daphne!
