Grillchips med löksmak

This is another contribution to the Sweden abroad category. Well, the brand is not Swedish I think, but the text on the bag is in Swedish anyway. Lättsaltade chips are also available. 
…but I still haven’t found any dillchips.

Dinner is ready!

Toppy chewing sticks from Netto in Sweden
Gizmo is a dog who knows what he wants. So any kind of chewing stick won’t do, it has to be a specific type. His favourite chewing stick is “Toppy” that is sold by “Netto” in Sweden. I brought maybe 8 packages when we moved here and I bought a couple of more when I was home during summer. But now I think we are on the last package. So on top of Gizmo’s Christmas wish-list is more Toppy chewing sticks.
…and of course a new beach tennis ball, like the one he got on his birthday.

Kalle is really enjoying his birthdaygift and he’s getting quite good. It’s fun to see him play anyway.
Garbage everywhere

A pile of trash outside Naxxar
Buskett Garden. A popular place for pic-nic's in the weekends. The first thing you see is trash...
One really sad thing here in Malta is the fact that people throw their waste anywhere. This picture is from a spot with wonderful view over the northern part of Malta, but it’s really no fun to bring visiting friends and family when the surrounding area looks like this.
In Pembroke a lot of people walk their dogs, like us, but it’s not safe for the dogs…. a lot of broken glass can be found here and there along with cans, bottles, old papers, plastic bags…
- The beach in Fomm ir-Rih is full of plastic stuff

- This is garbage in San Gwann, another place where the view is beautiful.

Moisture damage after 2 months
Fluffy mold
It’s been 2 months now and the mold in our study just keeps getting worse. When I took a closer look I could see that the wall is covered in white fluffy mold.

Remember this house that I wrote about earlier this year? It collapsed in June when they were adding a floor and one person were badly injured (I actually don’t know if he survived or not). This is what it looks like today.

7 cats

Opposite our house is an overgrown plot where a lot of cats hang out. We often hear the noise of cat fights in the evenings. Today when took Gizmo for a walk I saw 7 cats and there were probably even more cats hiding in the bushes.
Gizmo is very interested in the cats and wants to say hi, and there is one black and white cat that is less reserved than the others… but I think it will take some time before he/she lets Gizmo come near.
