Matthew Perry releasing autobiography about FRIENDS and addiction

Oct 29 2021

FRIENDS actor Matthew Perry, who played fan-favorite and sarcastic Chandler Bing, has revealed that he will be releasing an ‘unflinchingly honest’ autobiography about his time on set and his addiction struggles. During his time on the world renowned sitcom, the actor struggled with alcohol and drug abuse, and all of it is set to be documented in the as-of-yet untitled book next autumn. Megan Lynch, a publisher, told Deadline newsroom that ‘Matthew’s extraordinary story, told in his inimitable voice’ will bring humor, catharsis and something for everyone to bond over.

The now 52-year-old actor’s autobiography will be the first one to be released from any of the FRIENDS cast, and he himself said that with so much written about him in the past, it is time to hear directly from the horse’s mouth. FRIENDS fans can expect what Perry and publishers are describing as an unflinchingly honest, dishy and hilarious autobiography. With Perry having been open about addiction in the 2016, saying that he didn’t remember three years of filming, this book would give a glimpse into the actor’s struggles and what helped him traverse them. Would you read Perry’s autobiography?

Oct 29 2021

Energy Minister Miriam Dalli has revealed that Malta will be practically tripling the amount of public charging pillars by the end of the year. She revealed how 130 new charging pillars, with a total of 260 charging points, will be installed by the end of the year all across Malta. With 56 activated public charging points across Malta, the numbers did not increase significantly in previous years. However, this means that the total will increase to 186, with 362 charging points.

Minister Dalli confirmed that 108 of these pillars will be medium charging pillars, whereas the remaining 22 will be fast chargers. Drivers will spend 17c per unit to charge their car at a medium charging pillar during non-peak hours and 19c during peak hours. Fast chargers will cost 18c per unit and 20c per unit for non-peak and peak hours respectively. This also relates to Malta’s plan to replace 65,000 conventional cars with electric and hybrid vehicles by 2030 as part of EU carbon neutrality targets.
