Julie, Paul & the Gang at the Grand

It was great to see Julie and Paul's family - the gang of seven, at my place and the Bocci Club in Qala.
Paul wanted to treat me and Jean to a long lunch, the next day, so we opted for the Grand Hotel at Mgarr.

Unsurprisingly, the first six turned up to meet us in a taxi; their damned minibus having broken down again, so we had to wait for Paul.





Here we are waiting for Dad.

He eventually turned up, whilst waiting for the hire mini-bus to be fixed.









A really great bunch of kids....we all dug in to Guiseppe's burgers and enjoyed a wide selection of ice creams and bubblies.






A fun time was had by all....and I told the lads a few tall stories.













At about five o'clock, Jean took two car-loads off to the beach, whilst Paul went to pick up the bus.


And I went for a nap!
