Come visit Zebbug, on Friday and Satuarday before the second Sunday of June and you will what does a ground fireshow means. Maybe people will ask, why the other Zebbug Feast Clubs don't partecipate...the answer is so simple - the best is kept for the feast of our Patron Saint...appreciate culture and traditions, instead of festivals.
We can be a secular state in political sense but lets face it that our society is pro-christianity and will remain...people will be angry with some leaders of the church but in the heart, their faith is still burning
