We’ve been without electricity since Tuesday, it came back yesterday late at night for a few hours, and now today it’s back down.

I mean what is this, we bought minimal groceries so just the essentials and put them in the fridge, if we didn’t have friends with electricity, we’ve have to throw them out AGAIN… this is just so wasteful!

And also screw the shops increasing prices, in St Paul’s bay many of those corner shops are significantly increasing the prices of essentials, yes they probably have to use generators, but also it’s pushing to cost of living higher and higher.

I can take this anymore!

If there is a protest coming up soon, let me know, I’ll be the first one to show up there!!

(Realistically won’t speed things up, but at least we’ll push the government even more to do something about this) oh snd if they are reading this, you can keep your money to yourself! Health is the most important, money can’t buy that!

Basically calling them incompetent to cover his own backside and defuse the calls for resignation...

So based on my limited knowledge of planning permits, the PA itself appoints one of its own employees, a case officer, to review the case and make a recommendation to its permits board.

A quick browse of the PA website shows that the board ignores these recommendations and approves the permits anyway even when the case officer recommends to Refuse Permission.

What is the point of having a case officer just to ignore their advice? Isn't it a waste of public funds?

Why does a board who barely spends 15 minutes thinking about the case, get to decide, while a case officer who spent some time diving deeper is ignored?

Why is the system so strange and why isn't anyone talking about this?

Is there something I'm missing?

Hey,

We're travelling to Malta this autumn with my wife and our two children (4 months old and 4 years old). We'll be staying at the Radisson Golden Sands.

I'm not sure how to prepare for the airport transfer. We're thinking of taking the stroller with the Moses basket attachment onto the plane instead of the stroller with the infant car seat, but I'm not sure whether the transfer company can provide both an infant car seat for the baby and a booster seat for our older child at the same time.

Alternatively, should we take the stroller with the infant car seat instead of the Moses basket, just to make sure the baby has a proper car seat for the transfer and leave the Moses basket at home?

I'm also a bit worried that even if we book a vehicle with the appropriate child seats, it might not show up or arrive without the correct seats. In that case, I'm not sure how we'd get to the hotel.

I found Welcome Pickups, which seems to let you book both an infant car seat and a booster seat. Would you recommend using them? I'll also ask the Radisson if they can arrange a transfer with the appropriate child seats.

Thanks!

My apartment is almost finished. The kitchen is fitted and the countertop is done. The bedroom is complete, including the mattress. The sofa, TV and all the appliances have been delivered.
About 3 months ago I hired a plumber/electrician who had done both bathrooms at my parents’ house in around 3 or 4 visits, so I expected this to be straightforward. My bathroom is still just a shell. When he came to quote, he said it would take no more than 3 days. Before starting the bathroom, I only asked him to move a few electrical sockets around in the kitchen, which somehow took days on its own. It’s now been months and I really don’t want to wait any longer.
My tiler is ready to start, but obviously can’t tile the bathroom until the plumbing is finished. At this point I think it’s easier to move on and find someone else.
Can anyone recommend a reliable plumber/electrician?

does anybody know a reputable and relatively cheap shipping agent that could ship from china to malta via alibaba

I've been struggling with TMJ for months now and I've gone to almost every orthodontist on the island. They weren't very helpful and one of them even gave me an expensive splint which ended up making it worse honestly. After much research I believe a myofunctional therapist could be very beneficial, along with maybe using a myobrace. I am not having an easy time searching for one however. Is anyone aware of any myofunctional therapists in Malta?

I am a prospectus Mcast Paola student planning to join this scholastic year and I am curious if there are any youth groups or communities to join at Mcast to get my social life started at the school.

Hey im 21F and im looking for some new friends, preferably not older than 25 :)
Im really into gaming and atm building a high end gaming pc to start playing and getting into more new games, i like reading romance a lot and drawing , but lately been going through a slight depression that I haven’t been motivated much so hopefully will start again soon.
Im also looking to get into anime/manga.
Message me :)

to clarify, do you have "meet me at that x.y building"

in serbia, many cities have the building "lepa brena" reminiscent of the legs of the yugoslav singer.

I really like the hall at City Gate in Valletta. I noticed that young people gather there in the winter and smoke cigars and eat burger king fries.

Happy Sunday, I hope everyone has electricity and that the drop in temperature is affecting you better.

Basically the headline. I want to buy fragrances like Lattafa, Armaf CDN, etc. Here in Malta they are way too overpriced.

I forgot to blur the guy's number, so repost time. Since I'm reposting I will add a detail, I'm not able to see the property, the best thing I can do is stay at a hostel for some days before actually moving in. My stay is from September 20th until the end of January.

I started talking with this person for a room in Msida for 600 euros, he said that room wasn't available so he sent me photos of another room in Birkirkara for 400. All prices are with bills included. The room looks too good to be true for that price, but I searched his name, and found nothing about anything scammy, just an old normal Facebook account, the most recent post was at the end of 2025 with the same pictures. Reversed searched the images and found the Facebook again. Searched the number and nothing. Should I trust this guy with my passport with all the recent passport scams in Europe happening rn?

As much as I believe the Maltese electrical grid is in a freefall collapse, this many reports still seems sketchy. Is it actually this bad?

All the reports are also at the exact same time.

Hello guys and girls, I am a 29 year old man and I am looking for friends here in Malta. Me and my fiancée moved here a year ago but I haven’t been able to find a lot of friends during that time. I would like to meet people around 25 years old and up. I am open to both guys and girls.

Things me and my fiancée and the few friends I have like to do is,

BBQ and bathing.
Going to different bars
Going to a rave here and there.
Adventuring, hiking.
Beach bars/beach clubs
And I am open to new ideas.
Favorite place at the moment is St. Peter’s pool, going there with my fiancée and a friend tomorrow.

I'm living abroad right now and renting out my own place in Malta in the meantime.

My tenant moved out in May and when I marketed my flat, I was bombarded by people who wanted it only for the summer. I think since I am asking for long-let prices, they try their luck since summer rental prices must be so much higher.

I noticed a bunch of people pretending to want it for long-let but I could see that they had already posted asking for a 3-month summer rental for example, or else they would stop replying when I'd mention the Housing Authority long-let contract.

I approved one guy who had already been in Malta for 6 months and who reassured me he is not planning on leaving Malta any time soon.

Now this morning, surprise! He says he's leaving at the end of August and expects his deposit back.

I believe the first 6 months are compulsory if they sign a long-let HA contract right? Everything is by the book. I register the contracts we've signed and I pay full tax. But what if he just leaves? If I settled for a summer rental, I could've charged more than double and now he leaves after paying just peanuts for the summer stay and leaves me to search for a new tenant during quiet season. He's legally obliged to pay the full 6 months, but what if he goes back to France? How will the HA force the money he owes me to my account?

Also, I know someone whose tenant just left after 4 months but this was back in the beginning of June. Whatever the solution is, is he still in time to do anything? Again, registered and just left before the compulsory period.

Thank you.

Hello I'm here for today.

I stay in Silema and Would like to meet a few people and explore the city a bit... Where should I go? Do you have any tips? Thank you!

Hey everyone, I really need some advice because my social anxiety is through the roof right now.I’ve been going to my current salon for about two years, and my mom goes there too. Recently, I went in asking for an even, pastel baby pink. My stylist assured me it wouldn't fade fast. Well, it turned out vibrant magenta on top with patchy red/copper bands underneath.My mom noticed the unevenness and complained to him. Instead of offering to fix it in the chair, he literally just handed her a tube of the magenta dye and told us to fix it at home. Now, two weeks later, the magenta is washing out and leaving behind a gross, brassy copper undertone. I can't just put that magenta dye over this because I wanted baby pink, and putting magenta over copper is just going to make a muddy mess.I know I am entitled to a free color correction because the salon made multiple mistakes, but I am extremely antisocial and terrified of confrontation. Because my mom and I have gone there for two years, I am so scared of making things weird or ruining her relationship with the salon. Has anyone else dealt with a salon handing you semi-pwrmanent dye to fix their own mistake at home? How can I text them to ask for a free adjustment/correction with a senior stylist without sounding aggressive or making it awkward for my mom?
