    The bucket hat really does make the trip. Love the speech and toast to your grandparents. You and Dianne always bring such a great and funny energy, and it’s always so fun to watch.

      😂 you are funny! So you accuse Dianne of ‘bullying’ him for having banter about his hat but you’re completely ignoring Joe also having banter about her reading a book and saying about how long it would take to teach her backgammon. So he’s allowed to say things like that and it’s not bullying in your head but Dianne makes a joke about his hat and you’re accusing her of being a bully. Funny that isn’t it!! One rule for Dianne another for Joe, you completely ignore the other side!! Get a life. None of it is bullying, it’s called banter!!

    Hi I am English and living in malta now for 34 years. Whilst you are here it is a must to try Pastizzi. They are puff pastry crescents filled with mushy peas and the other type is filled with ricotta. They are delicious. If you get chance hop on a bus and visit the South of Malta. Quieter and you will experience Malta the non-touristy end. I live in Birzebbugia near a beautiful fishing village of Marsaxlokk. Enjoy the rest of your holiday. I follow you both x

    Joe, I tried a 2 day cruise to France to test it out, on the MSC Virtuosa which is huge, I loved it but think if you dock you need to get off and do an excursion or do your own thing! Otherwise you may feel trapped. But the ship was amazing. It all goes so smooth too from Southampton! Go try a mini cruise. I want to try a longer one now

We recently returned a few times and it felt like going home. I can't wait to return . Thank you for reminding me how lovely it is there

    9:21 those are actually called granaries which basically are huge underground silos that were cut in rock following orders of the Knights of St John. The idea was part of a military strategy which would see huge quantities of grain stored underground in case of food shortages caused by a siege.
