“Hello, Jane,” said Peter.

“I am going to Hamrun,” said Jane.

“Why?” said Peter.

“To meet a nice man called Mark Abela,” said Jane.

“Buy me some pastizzi while you’re at it,” said Peter.

Jaqa’ fiha mhux Beddingfield jew Joe Grima biss imm’anke l-Prim Ministru. Iżeffnuha anke meta ma jkollha x’taqsam xejn mal-argument.

Mhux biss. Kien Ghawdex apparentement wahdu last week shopping at Arkadia Foodstore. Well, actually he was looking everywhere and at anything while pulling a little black and looking a bit lost, but putting nothing in it.

To me looked speci ta ‘loitering’. Waiting for a pick-up tghid? Maybe he read somewhere that the supermarket aisles are a good place to start a conversation with a likely-looking singleton.

Ghax forsi in Gozo no one recognises him, miskin… not like in Hamrun.

Maybe that’s another problem: he cannot write in Maltese.
