    I was there in 1962. I was a naval apprentice on my first foreign posting, aged 20. In spite of our innocence at the time, we did know what Strait Street was all about out. I have been down there from top to bottom many times, without sampling the many wares on offer. Mostly we sampled the local beer choices, Cisk, Hop Leaf or Blue Label, or the local wine, Marsovin.

    It's wonderful that they are growing. I have visited the bird sanctuary in 2013 and it is so exciting to see what they are doing. To get the children to see how the nature and birds live is so important. And for the hunters to stop shooting exotic birds like the Flamingo they shot several years ago. Great job. When I come to Malta I always make it a point to stop by, but they are not always open when I'm there. Thank you 😊

    As a child I used to join a round Malta trip with boat. Filfla was one of the stops. We would swim to it and walk around the small island. We also used to collect bombshells. Quite scary when I think of it as an adult.

    It's illegal to kill the birds? Tell that to the hunters. A few years back they shot a Flamingo in the middle of some shallow water and took a boat out to is to collect it.
