Harry, it’s actually easier to find those thousands of Neanderthals in Malta.

Why should the researchers take the trouble of coming to Malta in this cold weather?

Couldn’t you direct them to the fat dwarf’s Facebook page? There are at least 26,000 Neanderthals who have liked that page, and they can easily be traced on Facebook, with their pics, location, and so on.

Let me light an enlightening match.

Cunning plan: get the dogs to chew our voting documents.

Someone mentioned empty vessels. With this manifest, it figures.

Labour is manifestly stupid.

The manifest shows that the Labour ship is carrying a consignment of gas.

I have just contacted the group to inform them that it is not necessary. There are thousands of them in Malta. They can be found congregating around a very little, fat dwarf, every morning, standing behind a makeshift porta potty.

Cargo, crew, passengers etc.

In Maltese “il-manufest”.
