Queen Elizabeth is in Malta for the Commonwealth Heads of Government summit at the mo. As part of her official engagements, yesterday she formally opened the marina where my apartment is. How cool is that?

Shame I wasn’t there at the time or I’d have invited her and Phil in for tea

Nah. That's Portomaso as mentioned before. A 1 bed on the ground floor with a view of the resturant outside is as much as I paid for a 3 bed on the 3rd floor with a view like this where I am:
