Throughout December we visited Malta, Sicily, and Poland before spending time with my folks in UK. It's been more than 25 years since my last visit to Malta and it has certainly changed in that time, but the island is still beautiful and of course packed full of ancient history. Palm diversity not the best unfortunately. Weather was pleasantly mild and sunny with max temperatures pushing 20C most days.

For those of you that frequent Facebook, I’ve set up a group called “Pommy palms”, where many of the palms I’ve seen since emigrating to Australia have been documented. If you wish to be a member, copy and paste “Pommy palms” into Facebook to view the page and click “Join group”.
