Do you know why they have bars on the windows? I thought Malta was very safe.

  No where soon Jo, too much work to do in the new house. Spain and Granada in May then Barcelona in June. What about you?

    Barcelona surprises me. Hot and busy? Tavira in 2 weeks 🙂

    Not my choice Jo, our regular travelling pals wanted to go. I suggested Naples but they thought it was too dangerous! And Barcelona isn’t?

    My daughter is going for their wedding anniversary next month, and although I know it’s a very beautiful city part of me is a little uneasy, Andrew. They got a bargain- of course!

    I said to my friends Naples may be dangerous but last year a terrorist drove a truck down Las Ramblas and then there is the whole Catalonia thing and my memories of Barcelona include being robbed in 2005!
    I got some cheap flights at £40 return but accommodation can be expensive. I have booked the Ibis!

Always look forward to your doors and windows, Andrew. And the knockers. Definitely worth a closer look. Particularly liked the tongue on the right. Curt

I prefer the door knockers to the tiles, the blue kind of gets to me after a while

  No tiles in Malta, so you would prefer it there for sure!
