Just in case you missed this earlier – I’m uploading it again in case you’ve run out of cake decorating ideas

This is a Joseph Muscat fan called Helen Cutajar. She had her picture taken with the Great Leader, then she had the photograph reproduced on her birthday cake along with the Labour emblem (she is one of the few people using it).
Sabih, eh? Il-vera najs.

I’m impressed! Both ‘happy’ and ‘birthday’ are spelt correctly.
That’s because it was written by the cake decorator.
The spelling might be right, the pronunciation, however, will probably be: “Heppy Bird Day”
Kemm taf idahhak habib. Jekk tahseb li l-labour biss ghandu nies illitterati mieghu sejjer zmerc. Jew inkella m’ghandekx kuntatt man-nies.Insomma irringrazzja l’ALla li int bravu jew brava wara kollox .
That was my first thought too.
That’s because they were written by the cake decorator.
I guess the decorator knows how to spell. If it was left to her I guess she would have written it “HEPPY BERDAY” (Capital letters included, they just love them)
good one
Dawk fil-gallarija tad-dar tal-hgieg?
Tsk tsk Daphne, you had a good run going, interesting posts developing educated debates and invoking further interest in the subject matter, than you resort back to this. Have you been hitting the, ahem, earl grey?
[Daphne – Then, not than. Earl Grey, not earl grey. I hate the stuff. I drink builder’s tea only. That’s the magical winning formula of this website, Richard: governing principle, ‘It takes a wise man to play the fool’. Hence the top ranking.]
‘Then, not than’. Don’t get me started – pet hate # 1
Made even worse when poor grammar/spelling/English is used by people trying to appear ‘more clever than thou’ (see Richard’s otherwise clever-looking post above), or as some attempt at ridicule. Oh dear.
What about Darjeeling? And Lapsang Souchong? Lady Grey?
top ranking of this site says a great deal about the followers.
Oh my god.
She can use that format for St. Valentine’s. Classy.
Hamallata ta’ vera.
I wouldn’t eat it but I’d love to cut into it.
Jaqtghalek l-aptit kollu.
L-aptit għal Joseph ilni li qtajtu – ma kienx hemm bżonn naraħ imċaftar fuq kejk illum.
I agree, in fact I thought it might be a good idea to keep it handy at mealtimes, I’ve been trying to lose some weight and this puts you right off your food.
Did she actually take her picture with the Leader or is did she chop off Michelle’s face and replace it with hers?
You have to wonder about boyfriends and husbands. Don’t they get upset?
Perhaps it’s an open marriage.
Perhaps it’s not a mirror that’s fixed to the ceiling (ref. subject c. 500 posts back) but a giant poster of Joseph Muscat. Fil-gwarnic.
Now Sam Fox is still picture on a cake material , somehow the great leader ruins it .
Why should they get upset? Don’t forget, Michelle thobbna llkol
Where’s the cake? I can see a pillow though.
Il-lallu, il-leader jorqod in-naha tax-xellug bhali.
Diga ghalaq fifty yearz il-prattikament PM? U ghadu fl-oppozizzjoni?
Mela bil-fors ghadu ma giehx il-mument opportun.
Dak huwa l-lemin … (Ftakar li min hu xellugi, kienu jghidulu ‘tax-xitan”.)
If that is a pillow, than Muscat is sleeping on the left hand side of the bed.
Ix-xitan ma ghandux halib.
Din bilfors Mintoffjana, Muskatella, ‘Moderata’, u Mhawwda (wahda sew).
Il-Mintoff Labour Party ta Joseph mimli b’kampjuni bhal din.
U donnu jidher minfuh, Joey taghna. X’faqa ta wicc ghandu fir-ritratt!
Dnub li l-gwarnic madwar ir-ritratt heba l-‘hair-do’ ta Joey.
I once saw a similar cake:

I think it’s very sweet.
Helen Cutajar may be a fan but she has placed Joseph right where one has to plunge the cake knife.
My God! This is real ?
Just a spoon full of sugar and the labour goes down, the labout goes down.
Does she then proceed to eat Joseph’s face?
That’s the most unappealing birthday cake i have seen.
Min jaf min ha the best piece of the cake…. i.e. the piece with the Great Leader’s face.
This has to be a joke. Can anyone be that simple?
Have a heart!! I am more than sure that Muscat would not want such ridiculous manifestations.

Aqtali slajs hej!
Liema parti trid, ras Joseph, jew zaqqu?
When ACTA is in place the owner of the above picture could simply let your blog shut down since you breached his right on the picture!
The bad thing about ACTA is that there would not even be a court order required! Use your brain and think about it instead of repeating like a parrot what others tell you!
[Daphne – Honestly. These scare stories. And even if that were the case, I would simply post a link instead of the actual picture, as I do with newspaper stories from organisations which police reproduction of their stuff, like The Times (London).]
Simply tawdry.
Issa toqodx tibki Michelle.
A classic example of how Labour supporters think that running the country is a piece of cake.
I heard she’s ditching the torca and her next birthday cake will be covered in blue icing – lejtest fexxin tal-Lejber.
Thajjart naghmel wiehed bhalu ghal-birthday.
Made me put down my coffee for a while.
Jien l-arma taffaxxinani wisq. Qisa ftit kuluri imcafalsin.Imma ghalinqas it-Torca ma’ tidhirx daqsekk aggressiva.
Godftey Grima had this cake in mind when he designed the PL emblem. It is so easy to replicate using coloured icing sugar.
Dear Daphne, you seem to have extra time tonight, not very interesting.
The logo is still revolting- even if it’s made out of sugar/marzipan.
What a great idea actually. I’m going to make some Joseph Muscat Figolli for Easter.
Is there a Maltese word for “Birthday”?
