Dingli is
a small village at the extreme end of Malta, quite remote from the centre. The
distance was felt even more up to forty years ago when public transport could
only reach up to Rabat. To arrive at Dingli one had to make the journey either
on foot or by means of a rough ride on a farmer's cart. Up to sixty years ago
there was no telephone service for the private family. It was then considered
difficult to travel to other localities of Malta.
