Biography/Interests/Remarks I loved being one of the token "Yanks" for two years at Tal Handaq, 1966-68. I will never trade those two glorious years of friendship and education! The teachers were terrific, and endearing....Mrs. Yule (and her "Yes" 99 times an hour), being one of the 20 Love-sick Maidens in the Gilbert and Sullivan "Patience", riding at the Marsa, ski-ing at Questa Key, riding the buses with the bus passes and the guys who would come on and check your tickets....fish and chips with vinegar, eating a whole loaf of hot Maltese bread fresh out of the oven....Ah....two years cherished in my memory forever! Thank you, Tal Handaq!
