I'm sure that the EU in their wisdom will introduce a directive making it mandatory for all members to enforce the use of winter tyres in the winter months!   

Even in Cyprus and Malta! 

Ive got some friends in Cyprus who have just recently posted snow pictures

(Admittedly, it was in the mountains on the ski runs but... )

Aye, you get proper snow up in the Troodos Mountains, unlike the farting we get here.  When we lived there, could go water skiing in the morning before the wind got up, then snow skiing in the afternoon

Snow in Malta?  Actually it has happened, but on just 7 occasions since 1858, and then there was no accumulations. Just a dusting.

Anyway, Maltese drivers would need far more than winter tyres, or any damn tyre, to make them drive safely!

I once had a set of winter tyres that funnily enough worked quite well in the summer as well! 

This has been my experience too

But given your love of Autoshite and Enduro tyres, I would imagine anything would be considered good

I'll have you know that the winter tyres in question were Pirelli's! 

Part worns mind, but Pirelli's non the less!

Nearly all tyres are part worn, Sir Tig. Carry on.

My sentiments entirely Uncle STEMO!

My gripe with part worns is they are so fikkin' expensive by the time you have them fitted.
