Only don't ask to see my card as on the day we registered (last week) we had a photo taken. Today they decided to take another and use that instead, the ONE day I am not wearing make up! typical!
They have a 70% vote turnout here, that rivals the UKs...the UKs voting rate on X factor that is 'cos too many people don't vote there!
To celebrate I think Chris and I shall have Maltese wine and some victoria sponge, the perfect marraige of Malta and the UK :)
It means I get the bus cheaper too, things like subscriptions: TV, mobile phone etc they are all cheaper with the ID card.
Storm again today, the full works, have had 3 in the less than three weeks i have been here. Go in the streets and you are ankle deep in water, on the roads anyway, 30 minutes later it is sunny again.
Chris and I watched "Never mind the buzzcocks" last night, just bits like that you miss, the good old British humour. Not sure I am desperate enough to watch Eastenders just yet!
Went to Gozo yesterday, the beautiful scenery was somewhat spoilt by a German lady who was heckling me everywhere i turned because i dared to sit next to her on a packed bus and she would not have enough room to keep adjusting her shawl if i sat next to her....crazy woman, less said about her the better.
It was a lovely place, seemed a bit more arable than Malta, they have a lot of sheep in Gozo, maybe it is the welsh equivalent! Heard a lot of good things of the Gozo cheese. It was dare i say it quaint (i hate using that word it is so demeaning!) and it was boring. Boring but pretty! Apparently it is fairly customary for middle class people in Malta to rent out a farmhouse in the summer over there with a few other couples and have a chilled out stay.
Here are the pictures (of Gozo, not crazy person)
