Geology sucks!

I've passed beneath that arch on a tourist excursion some years ago, and to the famous blue grotto too.



Yeah, I'm a well travelled bugger. So what? Wanna make summut of it?

[laklak]

Shame, man. I've taken a small boat through there. Absolutely gorgeous waters.

Wife was just nattering about the grotto. She went in the early seventies, amazing it's still there with all the changes.

Goddidit.

Actually, according to the Matrix hypothesis, it was the simulators having a laugh....

Malta is so religious.

It was the muslims!

Maybe

Small amount of semtex could bring it down...and obviously with markets running mostly on superstition of fear and greed...could be quite a significant nudge in favour of the UK as a traditional financial safe haven in a storm?

It has been prophecised that the falling atch is a precursor to the end times.

[Scot Dutchy]

With Trump around that is indeed a strong possibility.

[tattuchu]

It was a rubbish landmark anyway. Not as good as the ones in Holland

"Azure window". I thought it was going to be some magnificent stained glass window from 400 years ago. But then I see it was a piece of coastal rock.

Meh.

Why can't I find a picture of it post-collapse? Or is this just another of Trump's conspiracies? "Obama tapped my phone and then knocked down Malta's arch!"
