Housewives? My my, how progressive and liberal. My husband does as much shopping as I do and certainly he needs no weekly-menu list.

They are still firmly stuck in the 80s.

I wouldn’t understand such culture. I come from a family were the father always helped with the house chores, even the unloading of supermarket wares and put everything away. And with all the money no food ever got wasted. No wonder some men act like they do with women in general.

It was much easier to prepare a shopping list back then during those golden years, Herr Dougall – tonn taz-zejt, ross, ghagin, zokkor, dqieq u Diserta. Housewives could just take a cutting of that year’s budget speech with them to the corner store, complete with prices down to the mill. It’s much harder now…

You are right.

But you get the idea, it’s like someone who creates a surname while hiding his real one.

Normally when a letter follows a name it would stand for a second name not for the real surname.The “B” after Anton is misleading; it stands for Busuttil his “legal” surname and not for Bernard. His brother’s surname is not Busuttil Dougall but a plain and simple Busuttil.

I think Peppi Azzopardi transcends time. He is like one of those beings that inhabit the Aboriginal Dreamtime.

He was. He is. He will be.

He is probably God.

In reply to ciccio.

Exactly, even if you forgot Pauline Miceli and Patri Felicjan Bilocca (I think the latter died some years ago).

Back to the Future III ended like the ones before it: “To be continued.” The producers have kept their promise: we are living in Back to The Future IV (hence JPO IV, Franco Debono IV, and so on).

We desperately need to get Konrad Mizzi to help us connect that flux capacitator to the nearest Electrogas gas power station and get the DeLorean to take us back to the future, err, I mean the past – or is it the present?

But before we do so, and while we are back in the Golden Years, we should change something in the past to change the future. What if we could imprison Peppi Azzopardi for life?

In reply to La Redoute. It's an added nutrient. It puts fire in the belly. Positive energy.

This is Joseph’s version of the PN original of meeting voters in their kitchens.

Joseph’s father imports the explosive material used in fireworks which is finding its way into our kitchens.

The trouble is that this version is more deadly.

So much for the ‘fabbrika tal-kanċer’ in Marsaxlokk, this one is all over the islands.

In reply to Gahan. Having known Anton for all my life, I can assure you that Dougall is not his wife's surname, but his mother's maiden surname.
