Fireworks factory blew up in Gharb

Mushroom cloud over Gharb

Mushroom cloud over Gharb

About an hour ago, 3 massive explosions shook our house… the picture above shows what we saw from the first floor roof. Yet another fireworks factory has blown up – won’t they ever learn? :(

Update 8th September 2010…

The final result of this sad event: This morning the Times reported that the 6th victim has died from his injuries. One whole family practically wiped out. May they rest in peace – and may the government finally wake up and do something about the way this dangerous craft is being carried out – before people die who don’t have anything to do with it…

Munich in Summer

Well, better late than never! I just realised that my Munich photos are still missing from my blog. You might have seen them already on Facebook, but here you’ll find larger, better quality versions.

If you are currently suffering rain, rain, rain in Munich, you might find consolation in these pics… I wonder if Munich has ever seen a hotter summer than when I was there last July!!

I wish we had this kind of fountain in Gozo…

And finally, remember: even if it’s raining – the sun is still somewhere up there!
