Winter or summer, rain or shine, (well let’s face it it’s going to be shine for the most part) there's no better way of seeing Malta than without the hassle of parking and endless traffic jams. This is easily achieved if you opt for two wheels instead of four to make your way around the islands.
We all dream of being stars in the music world, selling more albums than Adele or Lady Ga Ga and living in a gold-plated house with hot and cold running servants and a chocolate fountain in the entrance hall. It's just one of those things that appeals to millions, like playing professional sport or winning the lottery.
Since Roman and medieval times, Malta has played temporary home to many famous literary names in history, from Cicero, Coleridge and Lord Byron to Desmond Morris and Nicholas Monsarrat And then there was the country’s homegrown famous literary son, Edward de Bono – he of lateral thinking fame. All sought help from the inspirational island.
Have you ever wondered why people frown when you smile? There are hundreds of potential reasons why this could happen of course, but one of the most common ones is bad teeth! They may be yellow from too many cigarettes or too much coffee or they may be more twisted than a World Cup venue selection panel. But fear not, help is at hand!
When I first attempted to drive in Malta some, ooh, 20 years ago now, one of the locals told me the answer given to visitors who asked which side of the road they should drive on was: “Neither. We drive in the shade!”
