A video uploaded by Maria Seychell on Facebook shows an adorable little girl with her mini drums joining the Fgura festa band as it marched throughout the locality.
The girl was seemingly very impressed by the musical talent of her fellow band members and she was quite eager to kick off her musical career.
Who knows, maybe we’ll see her play alongside them professionally one day!

As temperatures rise, the Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Directorate under the Superintendence of Public Health urges the public to take necessary precautions to stay healthy and avoid the harmful effects of the heat.
Staying well hydrated is crucial during these hot summer days, as daily maximum temperatures are expected to reach between 36°C and 37°C.
High temperatures cause rapid water loss from the body, leading to dehydration. Be aware of dehydration signs: increased thirst, dry mouth, dark urine, and infrequent urination in small amounts.
High temperatures can also lead to heat exhaustion or heatstroke. Heat exhaustion results from the loss of water and salt through sweating, with symptoms including weakness, faintness, nausea, headaches, dizziness, vomiting, muscle cramps, heavy sweating, and intense thirst. For medical advice, call 21231231.
Heatstroke, a more serious condition, occurs when the body can no longer cool itself, causing dangerously high body temperatures.
Untreated heatstroke symptoms include high temperature, confusion, dizziness, seizures, and loss of consciousness, and can lead to serious harm or death. In case of emergency, call 112.
While the heat can affect everyone, certain groups are at higher risk, including older individuals (especially those over 75), babies and young children, people with chronic conditions like kidney, respiratory, or heart issues, those with mental health problems, and outdoor workers.

It is also important for lVANt that this experience is environmentally friendly, this is done by powering both the performances’ sound and lighting through the use of batteries.’

A 23 year old man was arrested in Valletta in connection to drug trafficking – specifically cannabis.
Last Thursday, at around 1600hrs, as police were conducting a patrol in Triq Melita, a vehicle was noticed against the direction of traffic and was thus stopped to issue a fine.
At that moment the driver raised suspicion that he was in possession of something illegal.
A search revealed that the man was in possession of 90 grams suspected to be cannabis as well as an amount of money in cash.
The man was arrested and was taken to the police station for more investigations. An inquiry has been opened and investigations are ongoing.
The man is meanwhile being kept at the Floriana general headquarters and is expected to be taken to court today at around 1030hrs.
