See You All In A Week

[Richard A Thackeray]

Heading to Malta on Monday morning, for a week
First time out of the Country for 6 years

It was initially agreed to have been a week touring Scotland, but SWMBO pulled rank

Oh, & working another 'late-turn' tomorrow

 

[ColinJ]

Have fun...

I got my passport for my last trip to Spain with my bike and it ran out this Spring. Those 10 years certainly went quickly!

Enjoy yourself, don't forget Faith, Hope and Charity.

Do they have Benchmarks in Malta?
They'll surely have some old telephone boxes to snag
Have fun. It's a lovely place!

 

[Keith Oates]

It's good place to visit and you will probably want to stay longer than one week.

 

[Slick]

Enjoy your week in Malta, pity swmbo overruled the Scotland trip, but to be fair, you did leave it a bit late in the year for that depending on where you were going and what you wanted to do once you got here. Next year, eh.

Take some time to properly explore the 3 cities and the Citadella in Gozo

Thanks guys
To be fair it is 'Senior Managements' 50th next week, my 53rd, & was our wedding anniversary last week
So.………………. I guess I didn't have any say

After all, she bought me the Gran-Fondo. for my 50th (& we had a weekend in Whitby)



Would still have preferred Scotland, Whitby, or Morecambe though

Gozo is lovely, no where near as busy as Malta, especially at this time of year.

Head out towards the Inland Sea, but if you want to see the Azure Window made famous by Game of Thrones, you'll need to pack your scuba kit as it collapsed during a storm last year.

The Ġgantija Megalithic temples are worth a look - Malta and Gozo lay claim to having the oldest man made structures on the planet - history buffs have plenty to see in the Islands.

Back this AM
I woke up due to thunderstorms at 00:30 (local time), picked up from hotel @ 03:30
Flight @ 06:45
Landed at Yeadon, home for 10:45 (a friend picked us up)

Monoliths, we went to Hagar Qim
Didn't get to Gozo, but did a 'round Malta' boat-trip, & ended up at Comino(?)….. for 3 & 1/2 hours!

Enjoy yourself, don't forget Faith, Hope and Charity.

Only 'Faith' left now, but we saw her in the National War Museum
