  • Best Western

    This stay in Epinal is proving to be more than pleasant and reinvigorating. We noticed upon arrival on Friday night that our last minute hotel was bang in the middle of a concentration of shopping zones – foremost among which (at least according to the better half) was the outlet selling all forms of the…

  • Epinal

    We finally got proof that Obama is infallible as the bid for hosting the 2016 Olympics was one by Lula’s Brasil.

    There’s an appalling letter in today’s Times of Malta signed off “Marisa Micallef – London, UK”. I am not sure if this is not the same Marisa Micallef who is currently the toast of opinion columnists and journalists alike (along with Jason Micallef and, to a lesser extent Claudio Grech) for having created newsworthy material…
