I'm indulging myself with phone calls to friends and a NCIS/CIS fest from the past few weeks all washed along with some lovely red wine and interspersed at an attempt to do some work!
Can't face ESC - haven't seen it in YEARS and don't intend to see it for YEARS to come.

Have you seen the state of Ukraine- hilarious! hahaha Den has just bet £40 on them to win, without having seen the act until now..... hahahahhahahaha pmsl!
I love eurovision- it's sooooo horrendously awful it's funny! Terry Wogans comments are the best, i love him taking the piss out of it all- great to get very very drunk and watch it!
Seriously, get a bottle of vino, and try it, i dare ya! I used to think it was horrendous, but I'd never actually watched it, now I realise it's horrendously good!

Recomended Ive been its great biggrin

very friendly people great customs great weather and fireworks that put most other countries to shame. Its a rock though and only has one beach so make sure you go that resort if you like errm beaches. Ohh great churchs also as my Mum made me tour most of them mad

As for the twelve points its got something to do in political loyalty going back to WW2. They were supporters of ours in the war and were cut off to trade by the Germans. We sent if my memory is correct something like 52 boats with supplies of which the Germans sunk 51 only the 1 boat got through but with enough supplies to tide the Maltese over. Hence there loyalty to us for our sacrafice.

"The famous British Tanker Ohio,which brought to Malta all sorts of supplies to the island, it is said that this vessel, and others with her saved the island, with all the supply they brought to the island known as the Santa Maria convoy, an answer to their prayers was, when it arrived with fresh supplies that came as a miracle, and as a God send, as the foodstuff reserves had been exhausted, everything had run short, the three ships entered the Grand Harbour on the eve of 's feast,it arrived on the 14th August 1942, they were followed the next morning with two other ships, five ships in all out of a convoy of fourteen, never less everybody was happy to see them, they had plenty to satisfy their needs nearly 55,000 tons of badly needed supplies,including ammunition and aviation oil,it was indeed a God send"

I can swear in maltese!! not sure of the spelling but....
Fosh-ka-man-da! (F off)
Past-teet (c£#t)
lol

I had a maltese room mate at uni, I remember the first time i was introduced to her, speaking very slowly and clearly so she could understand me, when she replied she also talked very slooooooowly and clearly- she was taking the piss, her English is better than mine- it's the main language spoken in Malta!
She still threw in maltese swear words here and there though, which was very funny!
Never been yet, but will have a free holiday when i do eventually get round to it!
