As has already been said, children abroad, get on trains, tubes and buses all the time. The question is why are people finding the bus rates expensive, when they are not?

Why does a silly bus fare ‘misunderstanding’ compel one to write a long letter to the newspapers, to magnify ‘the problem’ and to make it look like it is the most important thing in the world, when it definitely is not especially that the rates quoted are incorrect.

Why does one not write about how nice it is to have less pollution, thanks to the new Arriva buses? How nice it is to breathe some nice fresh air when walking out of Valletta. How ugly it was when the rickety buses were around?

God !

There’s Home Economics – a subject I would recommend to be compulsory in secondary schools. It teaches one how to manage in awkward times, and to stop complaining and start thinking.

Meaning?

And it fits with the family business as well

Matt, that’s something that only happens in Malta. Kids are kept on a very short leash.

Go to Germany, and see kids as young as seven or eight struggling with school bags to get on the trains on their own.

Go to the UK and you’ll see how independent kids are – and how they grow to be as well.

Kullimkien imorru bil-buses u trains, imma ahna jigi ghalina u jwassalna l-pa jew il-mummy peress li id-distanzi kbar u pajjiz unsafe hafna. Fsied dak li hu. Kulhadd irid u b’ xejn jekk jista jkun.

Hey Kevvy! See you finally finished the dishes in time to volunteer another inane comment. Your timing is excellent. Needed the laugh.

Is she the (Dr?) Karen Mugliett we listen to on RTK Radio?

In this case, probably carrot sticks.

The above blog-post most certainly does not look like lies or misinformation to me. How about checking the facts yourself, kev?

Musketterija would be more like it – A lot of fuss about something obnoxious. http://fatimafeast.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoid=37982155
