Sweet Majjistral

Not Fausto, though I am sure he is sweet in his own particular way. I meant the wind that has so sweetly decided to sweep into the island on the first full evening of my visit. “You can’t always get what you want” sang the Stones and I’ll have to adjust to the temprary glitch in the weather. Still I guess many people will be loving the cool breeze the vento maestro brings along so no I can wait a little longer for the sticky windless sun bathing. Meanwhile, back on the ether here is a lovely sample of Timesofmalta journalism for not so anglo-philes:

Sheffield Utd wins friendly against Floriana

English Championship Club Sheffield United won Floriana 1-0 in a friendly at Hibs Ground tonight with Brian Howard scored a penalty in the first-half. Goalkeeper Justin Haber made his first team debut for the Blades as he started the match against the club with whom he started his career in Malta.

They won Floriana?  It’s painful to the ear and damaging to the soul. I’m off to finish and send off an article.
