In your  reply  you  could have told him that it was  just a fistfight  and nothing compared  to  what  a USA citizen  did  some  2 weeks ago  when  shooting  to death about  12 persons  whilst innocently  watching a  film,]]></description>

I know you are full of artistic talent and I admire your enthusiasm which ranges from literature to poetry to haiku to rock opera pieces.  

But where is the second Chapter of Fifty Shades of Laboured?]]></description>

Regarding highway code, in my opinion the police are not doing much about it.  

The customers of certain poplular shops of the towns and villages  park their cars  in all manners and do not bother about the  traffic beingb blocked but there is no way that you see a warden or a police giving fines.  

Minibus and taxi drivers driving at full speed in order to catch up with all the trips are easily seen everywhere and not to mention those cars with a black cloud coming from the exhaust pipe.]]></description>

I&#039;d cast him as the owner of an ice-cream van in a comic role. 

Thirty years ago I would have cast him as a heroic zaghzugh saving his omm Maltija (Mary Spiteri) and his oht qatt mimsusa (ahem) (Catherina Vigar) from the evil clutches of a manigold (Bayzo) protesting against the take-over of a public beach by the workers&#039; aristocracy, led, of course by mustachioed Ray Mahoney in the title role. 

No catsuits this time. Just speedos. 

The title? Not &quot;Hair&quot;. Nor &quot;Grease&quot;. Just &quot;Camp&quot;.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The truth is that Malta only has the thinnest veneer of civilisation. As soon as you touch it it cracks and the scum beneath comes frothing out. 

It&#039;s exactly like Daphne says - 25 years of democracy and we&#039;ve still barely begun to instill anything like civilisation here. Mind you, the judiciary and the police force are letting us down badly too, especially the former.

I don&#039;t think I&#039;ll ever see my country ever having a majority of people that talk quietly, queue, drive according to the highway code, don&#039;t litter, don&#039;t kill protected birds, know how to hold a knife and fork, have some general knowledge . . .]]></description>
