Good morning all from Malta where it is very pleasant and a bit cooler than the high temperatures we’ve had over the past couple of weeks.
It is a Public Holiday today so feels like another Sunday. It’s the feast of Santa Maria and also the day when, in 1942, supplies finally got through to a starving population as the Ohio limped into port. Many previous supply ships had been bombed and hadn’t made it to Malta, so it was a huge relief when it arrived. The Santa Maria Convoy is still remembered and celebrated to this day, so there are a lot of fireworks going off.
I’m not going out today, just doing some cleaning and pottering about, plus pacifying the dog as he is frightened of all the noisy fireworks and petards going off, poor chap.
Hope you all have a good day.☀️??
