Valletta day 8

Interesting day - another exciting bus ride. This time to Siggiewi, apparently British troops used to call it 'Siggy Wiggy'. The home of a large, now disused quarry. It houses a museum and exposition of the history of Sandstone mining. Strange rushed affair with the all too common headphones and MP3 player, taking you from place to place full tilt. The best idea was to turn the player off between each talk so one could take it in, in peace! Very quiet town/village, the centre of which consisted of the obligatory Catholic church and socialist club, with a seat so you could wait for the bus. The locals were very friendly, and have all been watching Sky news and seeing the snow in England. They have never seen snow here, or at least not for at least 50 years, although they do have very heavy hail occasionally.
