Singer and songwriter Maxine Pace took to social media to raise some awareness about how and where women can find assistance, self-care and even mental health services.

Celebrating International Women’s Day, the singer pointed out that while its important to celebrate the women we know and love, it is important for women themselves to know how they can access various services which support their mental, physical and emotional health.

5 things to keep in mind when doing St. Patrick’s Day in Malta

5 tips to keep in mind when doing St. Patrick's Day in Malta

Mar 8 2023

St. Patrick’s Day is almost here and we would be remiss if we didn’t tell you a few important tips to keep in mind before heading into the much-anticipated annual celebrations. Whether you’re in St. Julian’s, Valletta or elsewhere, following these tips and keeping the importance of health & safety in mind are essential to allow yourself (and others) enjoy their day. So go out, enjoy, stay safe and follow these tips.

Wear green

Tip number one: be a sport and put on at least one green item of clothing. You won’t feel like a fish out of water, fit in well and immediately find common ground when heading into the pub or street where you plan on attending the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.

Fuel up

Whatever you do, don’t go out on an empty stomach on St. Patrick’s Day. Grab yourself a big, wholesome, pre-game meal to line your stomach with all the safety it needs. As an added safety measure, secure a solid, mid-event snack to further ensure that the beers don’t get the best of you.

Drink in moderation

The connotations between St. Patrick’s Day and beer-drinking are not something which can be ignored, but that doesn’t mean you should go hard on the beer. Enjoy your time with friends, get a few drinks in but for God’s sake and your own… DRINK RESPONSIBLY.

Charge your phone

On days like St. Patrick’s Day, the last thing you want is to get lost in the crowd with zero percent battery. Whether it’s messaging the squad to see where they’re at, letting family members know that you’re alright or just booking a taxi to get home, make sure you charge your phone beforehand and take a portable charger with you if need be.

Don’t drink and drive

One of the most important things to keep in mind when St. Patrick’s Day activities come around. Whatever you do… DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE. It’s important to understand that not only is driving under the influence a crime, but it could endanger you and those around you. You could potentially be saving lives by booking a cab, so go ahead and opt for that this year.

What’s your number one St. Patrick’s tip?

Remains of WWII planes discovered during pension home garden works

Mar 8 2023

As garden works on the grounds of the St Vincent de Paul care home were underway, the remains of World War II aircrafts were discovered, putting the construction on a brief hiatus.

The workers were working the land for an upcoming garden when they came across parts belonging to planes piloted by Italian, German and British militia.

Malta Aviation Museum director Ray Polidano said that the fighter aircraft most likely crashed in different areas of Malta before ending up in the quarry site.

Polidano told Times of Malta that the air craft were most likely studied by the British, stored in a hanger and eventually dumped when they were deemed useless.

Active Ageing Minister Jo Etienne Abela took to social media to state that the discoveries will lead to delays as the items will be cleaned and displayed.

The main parts discovered were Italian and German fuselages, with German letters still painted on them. Apart from this, a twin-engine British bomber as well as machine guns were discovered.
