Kont indunajt li bieb ta' garaxx kien mifquh u kien ovvju li kien infaqa' b'daqqa ta' karozza jew trakk. L-ewwel hsieb tieghi kien li dan kien attentat ta' serq ghax id-daqqa tant kienet kbira illi l-bieb infaqa u wiehed seta jidhol gewwa. Bhala bniedem li nemmen fil-gustizzja mort malajr l-ghassa tal-pulizija ta' San Gwann biex nirraporta. KIENET MAGHLUQA. Qbadt il-mobile u bdejt incempel id-depot. Li kieku ridt naqbad mal-qamar kont naqbad aktar malajr. Eventwalment qbadt. Ghidtilhom li ridt nirraporta probabilta ta' attentat ta' serq u ghidtilhom x'rajt. Staqsewni jekk jien kontx is-sid. Ghidtilhom li le. Qaluli jekk nafx

Moby rocked the crowd on Sunday night, but the traffic and safety arrangements leading to the venue were shambolic, and that is putting it mildly. The venue was in the fields serviced by narrow farmers’ lanes leading in from Zebbug and
Once people got into the country roads closer to the venue, disorganisation changed to chaos, panic and an absolute mockery of what a traffic management plan should be. The handful of ADT representatives which were supposed to direct traffic were clueless, more of a hindrance than anything else. To be fair to them, their numbers were so small that they could not really do anything. The problems were mostly caused by cars parked up next to rubble walls in any old fashion. Were the drivers told to move them? Of course not. After all, what can one ADT guy do against a car load of bullish men who don’t care where they park? Wait a minute... couldn’t the road have been cordoned off? Of course it could, or at least steel barriers could have been put down the road to prevent people from parking. Here’s a novel idea... organise a shuttle bus... Is it really that hard? The chaos had to be seen to be believed. People dodging in and out of traffic, vans and trucks trying to squeeze past. But the best bit comes at the end. Right at the entrance there were hundreds of people queuing up and spilling out onto the road. Cars trying to get to the parking area had to negotiate this... but this is where disorganisation gives way to stupidity. The entrance had to be where it was, but did there really have to be hot dog stands (and a good number of them) on the other side of a narrow road? Picture it, thousands of people jostling to get in, a good other number jostling to get a hotdog on the other side of the road and frustrated drivers who had been in traffic for up to two hours trying to get to the car park. Quite how anyone was not seriously injured is a miracle. If this is what traffic management is supposed to be, God help us when Isle of MTV is held. The ADT really should look at what they did (actually didn’t do), learn from it and put it right. It’s 2009... although you would be hard pressed to believe it sometimes.

A judge yesterday dismissed an appeal by a 16-year-old boy who claimed he had failed to issue a VAT receipt during a village feast because he was inexperienced, having only been on the job for a few days. The boy, who cannot be named because of his age, had finished his O-levels and started working two to three days before he was caught by a VAT inspector at the Birżebbuġa feast charging a customer without issuing a receipt. He had just sold an €0.80 pizza to a child who then left without being given a fiscal receipt. A VAT inspector noticed the transaction and approached him. He was found guilty by a magistrate and was reprimanded. The boy appealed, pointing out that he had just started working and was not experienced in handling customers with the speed required in these circumstances. Furthermore, the prosecution only brought one witness who was weak. The amount sold was only minimal and he had no intention to harm his employer by not issuing the receipt. Mr Justice Lawrence Quintano threw out the appeal and said that his age was already reflected in the original judgment, the fact that he was inexperienced was no excuse and the fact that only one witness was brought does not mean the evidence was inadequate in anyway.
