Crazy Maltese House names 2

As I drive along the streets I often come across absurd house names. I see so many of these that I just couldn't help writing a second post about them. Some are plain ridiculous while others make you scratch your head in bafflement. Take these names below for example..
"Don't worry!" Who said I was worried?


Excuse me??!! Could it be a slang version of the Maltese word for 'fart'?? Please note their correction of house number. Oh my!


AAh! Did the owner win this house?



Do they have a pink kitchen? Pink bathroom, pink toiletpaper? Do they like strawberry ice-cream? Do they have pink cars? Do they chew pink bubble-gum only? Do they watch pink panther only? Do they love singer Pink only? The questions never cease...

Cookies anyone?

Apart from the horrendous spelling of the actual phrase 'Jaghli ghax jisbah' it's actually an idiom often referred to lazy people who get frustrated each time the sun rises cos that means another day of work. Can you imagine someone calling his house so? I just can't imagine why he took the painstaking effort to hang this large name plate on his house. Too much thought exerted in choosing this name, and too much hassle to nail this large plate on the wall.

Hi Zen, thanks for commenting on my work out post :o) Hope you're doing much better at the whole shaping up thing than I am! I seem to be a little bit, um, what you call lazy and have a bit of a motivation problem haha I have all the time in the world and a wedding coming up, you'd think that those two things would be motivation enough! Hope you're doing well :o)
