If Joe ‘ghandu kundizzjonji’, Lynn, then why don’t you buy yourselves a ground floor flat, or will Joe not make it past the front door?

1 Hawkins, or whatever his name is, had to introduce his body mass into his famous equation on time and the universe;

2 Archimedes had a vision of him in a (big) bath before he came up with “.. equals the volume of water displaced etc” in his immersed bodies experiment;

3 Halley thought it was him he spotted orbiting the earth in a future dimension before he realised it was a comet;

4 Einstein never considered him because he was an unrivalled genius.

As a late 70s boy, I was not around to watch this particular Carry On episode, however a quick Google and thanks to Wikipedia the reference is even clearer: “‘Khyber’ is Cockney rhyming slang in which ‘Khyber Pass’ means ‘arse”.

Birds of the same arrogant and obnoxious feather.

Joe Grima is so fat, that Joseph Muscat would balance the budget with fuel tax and exorbitant fuel prices if you tried to drive around him.

Joe Grima is so fat he does not need the internet. He is already world wide.

You can still make ‘Bla Kondixin’ jokes though.

Don’t get too close to Joe Grima or you’ll get sucked into orbit.
