Sliema Malta
Situated on the north-eastern coast of Malta, bordering Gzira and St. Julians, Sliema is a bustling town overlooking Marsamxett Harbour, Manoel Island and Valletta on one side of the Tigne peninsula, and the open Mediterranean Sea on the other.
With a residential population of almost 13,500, the town is also a popular tourist resort with numerous hotels, bars and restaurants. Shopping in Sliema is centred on Tower Road where there is a wide variety of local shops, international high-street and designer outlets and a choice of supermarkets. Many of the hotels and cafes line the harbour along a stretch of road known as The Strand.

Couple friends of mine decided to sell their apartments, mainly because their respective families are getting bigger and need more space to live in. So here I am, trying to help everyone out by listing apartments for sale in Malta directly from owners.
Being a winter month, January’s weather in Malta can be a real mix of sunshine, cloud, rain and some strong winds. Strong winds usually blow for two to three days at a time, and can feel bitingly cold, especially on cloudy days and at night. Sometimes these winds can be harsh and can reach force 7 or 8. When rain falls, however, it’s not often for the whole day, usually falling in showers in either the morning or afternoon. Although a Mediterranean country, don’t expect sunbathing conditions if you visit in January; the conditions though, are ideal for walking, sightseeing or an activity holiday, as on most days, the sun will make an appearance at some point, averaging 5.5 hours per day.
Buffalo Bill is an American Steakhouse, and gets its name from William F Cody (February 26, 1846 till January 10, 1917), one of the more colourful figures from the bygone times of Wild West.
Marijuana, known as weed, cannabis, spliff etc, is an illegal drug in Malta. Maltese law takes a harsh stance against illicit drugs of any kind, even those categorised as “soft” drugs elsewhere. Importation of illegal drugs should not even be contemplated by anyone, even if it’s a small amount for personal use.
