President George Abela mingled with the public, even finding time to have a tête-à-tête with this young well-wisher, in Ħamrun yesterday when, accompanied by Mrs Abela, he paid an official visit to the town. They attended Mass at the parish church and met residents on the parvis. Dr Abela visited the various band clubs and the chapel of the Miraculous Medal in Blata l-Bajda.
