Some people have nothing better to do at 1am on a Monday. Mintoff would have approved.

    You’d think this was the freaking lunar landing.

    History in the making – Joseph jiffirma l-billboard. Ghamlu l-quccija.

  3. H.P. Baxxter says:

    That’s a fine collection of mature cheeses, with a few soft, spreadable ones as well.

    The one at the back of the shelf in the middle is well past the sell-by date and has gone mouldy and should be disposed of immediately.

    The one in the centre at the front of the shelf is over-ripe, with a subtle but unrecognisable flavour strongly reminiscent of much older cheeses yet hinting at something fresh with a promising bouquet. Should be accompanied by fine wines, particularly champagne.

      I used to stack shelves at night in Tesco in the 70s when I was a student.

      We had to put the out of date tins in a special skip. I asked the boss what happens to them. Oh they go to Malta, he said.

      This was before I knew I would one day have the vote here. Funny old world.

      • H.P. Baxxter says:

        And now those out of date items will end up in cabinet. Not the kitchen cabinet, but the Cabinet of Malta. Funny old world, if we didn’t live in it.

    qeghdin sew .. kif Alla jridhom

  5. Jozef says:

    Oh look, Alex Sceberras Trigona wants some Malta again.

  6. Karl Flores says:

    Qisom qeghdin jaghmlu barriera fil-football biex jipprotegu l-bajd min xi xutt b’sahhtu lejn il-lasta mill-vicin. Ouch!

  7. Dott Abjad says:

    AST seems to be having the time of his life. What a thrill!

  8. Kevin Zammit says:

    Ghax b’ cerimonji bhal din ser jorhos il-prezz tal-generazjoni tad-dawl u ser jitkattru il-postijiet tax-xoghol.

    Ara veru ghadu b’mentalita ta’ gurnalist tas-Super One. Boloh inthom li bqajtu imqajmin tistennewh.

  9. Antoine Vella says:

    Why are they all so grim? They don’t look too happy to be there at that hour.

  10. mark says:

    Are Michael farrugia and AST second-class citizens? Why do they have to stand behind that rope?

    • La Redoute says:

      Why shouldn’t they stand behind a rope when the recently deposed deputy leader had to stay home in his tracksweet and watch it all on TV?

  11. Natalie says:

    Ha! Dummies! I’ve never been happier not to be Labour. I was long asleep at 1am.

  12. TROY says:

    Kemm hu biezel dan Joseph.

    Not even the early bird wakes up this early.

    Come to think of it, not even the worm.

  13. Riya says:

    Kieku ghamel din il-laqgha fis-satra tal-lejl biex ihabbrilna kif se jrahha il-kontijiet tal-ilma u d-dawl fiha u ma fihiex.

    Imma koppi spiccajna ghax ma qal xejn bis-sugu bhas-soltu.

    Jista’ jkun ukoll li ma setax jaqra l-programm elettorali ghax kien id-dlam u l-programm nassumi li fih hafna pagni x’jinqraw bhal dak li kien ghamel Alfred Sant fis-sena 1986 ta’ xi erba’ folji.

  14. H.P. Baxxter says:

    The new slogan just writes itself:

    LABOUR KEEPS YOU UP AT NIGHT

  15. Sokrate says:

    X’izzummara gralhom dawn l-istatwi?

    U ghaliex qed tirreferu ghall-bajd? X’bajd hu? Tal-Lejber?

    Kieku kellhom il-bajd kienu johorgu barra fid-dawl tax-xemx, u mhux fis-satra tal-lejl.

    Ma jawgura xdejn tajjeb li hallew il-bajd jikshilhom f’kesha xxoqq l-ghadam…insomma, flok mid-dlam ghad-dawl, jidher li sejrin mid-dawl ghad-dlam…ajma l-bajd.

  16. Riya says:

    Kemm qieghed sew it-tabib Farrugia – qisu qed jisma il-priedka tat-tifel fil-Milied.

  17. ken il malti says:

    They are all waiting for this to be over so they can hit the Porta Loos.

  18. Candida says:

    Hekk hu Riya, haseb li ghadu abbati u hareg jaghmel il-priedka tal-Milied f’nofs il-lejl.

    Jghid dak li tghallem bla ma jifhem jew jesprimi entuzjazmu f’dak li qieghed jghid hu stess.

    He alwasy reminds me of the bewildered altar boy who recites his sermon with trepidation, most of the time expressionless because he does not understand what he’s saying. That night he really sealed my impression – unreal and fake.
