I think the idea IS to portray bathroom mats against a sky blue background, white fluffy clouds included. 

Tipo ahna m&#039;ghandniex x&#039;nahbu....nonxru kollox barra. 

Musumeci was late, stuck behind a bus, as usual.]]></description>

There have been far greater wastes of money, with nothing to show for them at the end. How about Malta Drydocks?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Trid toqghod attent hafna b&#039;dak li jghid Joseph Muscat, u aktar b&#039;dak li ma jghidx.  

Meta Joseph Muscat jghid li se jirranga l-kontijiet tad-dawl u l-ilma, qed jitkellem litteralment - se JIRRANGA l-kontijiet tad-dawl u l-ilma.  

Ma tfissirx li se jrahhas u qatt ma naf li qal li ser irahhas.  Tirranga il-kont (tibghat estimu aktar qrib ghal konsum tieghek u mhux m&#039;ghola s-smewwiet, taghmel aktar smart meters, etc...) hija differenti hafna milli &quot;trahhas il-kont&quot;.  

Il-possibilita li se jrahhas hija remota hafna meta tikkunsidra s-sitwazzjoni ekonomika dinjija attwali.  U jekk irahhas, se jittiehdu minn taxxi ohra.  U hija aktar facli li tirranga sistema ta&#039; dipartiment milli trahhas il-kont.  

Eventwalment, meta se jitla&#039; fil-poter u jikkonfrontawh, se jkun b&#039;wiccu minn quddiem biex jiddikjara li hu qatt ma gideb.

L-istess loghob bil-kliem ta&#039; AS u l-VAT u r-Referendum tal-EU.]]></description>

About the stipends, Musumeci asked if Labour would increase them.

Prof. Scicluna first said &quot;Yes, we will increase them.&quot;  Then he quickly corrected that to &quot;insahhuhom&quot; and &quot;making them sustainable.&quot;

He also said that to make the stipends sustainable, they must not be a burden on the deficit.  

Which to me means that if the budget is running a deficit, his government would cut the stipends and send the students to the banks.

As Aunt Hetty suggests, he was never asked to explain specifically the meaning of &quot;insahhuhom.&quot;]]></description>

He also waffled when asked to be more specific re the &#039;&#039;insahhu li stipendji&#039;&#039; promise.

Does anyone know what the multi-coloured bathroom mats hanging above their heads were in aid of? Are they advertising some sort of sale at JB STORES or what?]]></description>

Even this evening they are still grumbling about the Piano project for City Gate. They think it&#039;s a waste of money. They never see beyond their collective nose.

Just watch what will happen to Valletta when all the ongoing projects will be finished in a year or so. But Labour will surely give credit to an increase in tourists to Karmenu Vella.]]></description>

When asked for his comments about the confirmation of the recent Fitch credit rating, his answer was &#039;We could do  better because Joseph wants us to be the best in Europe&#039;. Joseph and the Magic Wand.

He even said that our rating has been the same since 2007. Isn&#039;t that a good thing and a credit to this administration, given the world&#039;s financial crisis? But he wants us to do better, of course. We&#039;re in for it if he is made Minister for Finance.]]></description>
