The Elements

Just over a week to go and time is passing rapidly. I've got my TEFL certificates, factor 30 sun cream, swimming cossie and a few books. What more do I need to take for 6 weeks in Malta? Damn! I forgot my earthquake survival pack. And I thought that Malta was just some sleepy Mediterranean Island that got invaded occasionally by marauders and tourists, or by marauding tourists depending on who you speak to. Clearly not. Nobody said nothing about the earth shaking about. The Times of Malta has reported two, yes TWO, earthquakes by Malta and Gozo in recent days. Malta even has it's own seismic department! And by the way, if anyone's thinking about going to Southern Greece on their hols...well, don't.
