    The tea at the Dell was better than the tea at St Marys. They served real tea then:emoticon-0106-cryin
    Just got back from Malta...the only European country that can serve proper tea. <diva>

    I was thinking the same watching that. Great amount of noise we could make from it. Maybe we should have kept both grounds going and play only certain games there :)

    Saves you from looking right, left, right, left, right....and still having to leap out of the way. Apart from Italy where you look right, left, right, left, right....and up...because the bastards will get you from every direction. :)

    Lol when I visit my daughter in Atlanta she says you will never get run over in Georgia as they are too worried about getting sued. I have watched her park her car, look at her phone to text and walk across the car park to Walmart and cars just stop. I did remind her when she was here that the UK is a bit different lol.

    Tbf to Europeans...their consideration to pedestrians is a lot better than it was...presumably there have been crackdowns on killing tourists :)

    Speedy cyclists in Amsterdam a hazard for the unwary visitor. I've had a few tourists step out in front of me here in the Hague, ringing my loud bell infuriates some. There's some odd sods about, every nationality has their share.

    Crossing the road in Amsterdam is a nightmare! You have to negotiate the cycle lane, the traffic lane, and the tram lane, and then the whole thing in reverse. I always forgot about cyclists, and was very grateful to those who rang their bells!

    Sliema….stayed there before. Bit built up, but has a long promenade walk towards St Julians and is very convenient for Valletta (by ferry or bus).

    Lots more to the Netherlands than the Dam fun that it is. We're having lunch before a stroll around the Japanese Gardens near the Hague
