  8. C Falzon says:

    “at 21:00 approximately”

    It seems Joseph will be attending then.

  9. Francis Saliba MD says:

    Will the chairman be serving Earl Grey ‘grokks’ in mugs?

    And will the Upper Barrakka lift service be suspended?

  10. M. says:

    Oh, so that’s why there was an announcement earlier this week, saying that the barrakka lift will not be working from 4pm today till roughly dawn tomorrow due to some event at Barrakka Gardens.

    I wonder whether alternative arrangements were made for any passengers from cruise ships.

  11. H.P. Baxxter says:

    I announce the establishment of the “Fuck off back to your pigsty” forum.

  12. blue says:

    Who on earth issues an invitation giving the time as ‘2100 approximately’?

  13. Pecksniff says:

    Edward Bonello – is that another iced bun?

    [Daphne – No, most certainly not. He has been communications director there for some time now, which is why I am on his email list along with the rest of the press. If he were a political appointment, I wouldn’t be.]

    • Mark says:

      Edward Bonello has been communications director since last year. No iced bun there, he’s a competent and energetic person by any standards. He also has a degree in Communications, which fits the job description.

      The Nationalist klikka was so terrible …

      • ian says:

        What? He’s competent and energetic? He must be removed immediately and be replaced by somebody completely unfit for purpose.
