All the fun of the fair! By John Smith This year’s Fair and Festival of San Bernabé, which runs from June 6 to 12, got underway with a real bang when the Mayor of Marbella José Bernal travelled to the night fairground adjacent to La Cañada as part of the opening delegation before the celebrations began. Well-known local personality and representative of the fair Rafael de la Fuente gave an opening speech, which was followed by the election of the various queens and princesses. The large audience then enjoyed the traditional fireworks, accompanied by a music and dancing water display, before moving on to the funfair. Chosen in part for his knowledge of and connection with tourism, Rafael de la Fuente said in his speech that Marbella “is an intensely young and ancient city at the same time,” and “is the place you always return: its people, its human landscape, its miraculous climate, its natural beauty and for having preserved its Andalucian essence,

in which many ancient cultures have distilled much knowledge and flavours.” O n th e fo llo w in g d a y,

Mayor Bernal opened the Pa s e o de la A la me da da y fair, which this year returns to the c e ntre of the c ity

after almost a decade. The mayor, accompanied by the councilman responsible for the festival, Manuel Garcia,

and other members of the government team, made a tour of the premises that included nearly 20 bars and encouraged all residents and visitors to participate in this fair, which will last until Sunday, June 12, and is set to be one of the most important in the Costa del Sol. He stressed the importance of the return of the day fair to the city centre and the fact that it recognises another wellknown person, Carmen Pastore ‘Pichu.’ During his walk, the mayor stopped to talk to some of the 100 officers brought in to ensure security in this part of the fair, which is open from noon till 10pm and pointed out the fact that as an added measure, security cameras have also been installed around the area.

Our readers have been expressing their views about whether Spain has become too liberal which appeared on our website.

Here are a few of your comments some of which have been cut due to size but we’re always happy to hear from everyone even if their comments are uncomplimentary.

Fascist dog Oh, poor thing. Did the gays upset you? Why don’t you go back to Britain… you could even become a Muslim. I’m sure that’s right up your street, you fascist dog. Peter

John response If posing a question to our readers makes me a fascist then so much for freedom of speech and if telling me to become a Muslim is your idea of an intelligent insult, so be it. John EWN

Nazi Germany Much the same could be said about Nazi Germany and thousands were murdered and tortured by the Franco regime, everything was censored, watched and informed on and nobody dared speak openly. If you’d prefer that to a few gays, I hope nobody listens to your rubbish. Being gay isn’t compulsory, you can’t catch it. Don’t like gay parades then don’t go. Sean Dobson

PRIDE: First stamps of the gay and lesbian kingdom.

By John Smith THERE is little doubt that during the Franco regime, some things could be considered better than they are today, inasmuch as the country was kept under a tight rein and there were less problems with hooliganism, imported or home-grown but the Spanish people also had to be careful about what they said and did. When he died, there was a liberal backlash, pornography appeared on the TV, certain quite vulgar swear words became part of the common vocabulary and there was a general feeling of both release and relaxation with the Spanish discovering that freedom of thought and expression was really quite liberating. Like so m a n y o t h e r n a tio n s , Spain has also entertained a certain amount of ‘political correctness’ which has to some extent seen a reduction in the machismo of the younger Spanish male and an ability for women to not just be vocal at home but to have a voice which can

be heard across the country. Politically, those who want to break away from Spain have a voice and it seems that that the days of violent action have passed which can only be applauded. There are still problems with gender violence and there are of course feelings of antipathy towards migrants but generally Spain has become a much more

free and tolerant society than it was 50 years ago. One must however ask has it actually gone too far? There is no question in my mind that those who are not heterosexual have every right to enjoy their sexuality without fear of prejudice or persecution (and look what happened to Federico Garcia Lorca) but should local councils be promoting Gay Pride with large numbers of members of the LGBT factions parading around the streets shouting “We’re here. We’re queer! Get used to it!” Normally, when referring to homosexuals in particular, heterosexuals normally try to excuse any criticism by saying “some of my best friends are gay but…” which I can’t do although my hairdresser Glen is gay and a great guy. What does bother many people is that to spend several days promoting what is effectively a peon to sexuality is really too much. You don’t see councils spending money on promoting similar heterosexual pairings (not that people

would necessarily want to be involved anyway) and fairs and fiestas are aimed at everybody regardless of age, politics, sexuality or colour. Perhaps it’s a very clever ploy by local government to encourage members of the LGBT community to come to their town and spend their ‘pink euro’ locally in order to help the local bars, shops and hotels. Back in 2004, Australian Dale Anderson, became Emperor of the Gay and Lesbian Kingdom of the Coral Sea and with a troop of gays and lesbians invaded an uninhabited island with the intention of forming a ‘gay nation’ with passports, coins and stamps and a holiday ‘camp’ which would attract members of the LGBT nation from all over the world. Unfortunately this brave dream failed but perhaps that could be an answer for the future that gay entrepreneurs could consider. Going back to the original question however, have things become too liberal in Spain and would expats in particular like to see things become a little less overt?

Don’t damn Why do people comment without reading things through and what’s to gain by insulting the writer? This was a balanced viewpoint that simply raised questions about Spain and the way it has changed. If you live in a town holding a week long pride festival, you can’t avoid it even if you want to! Harold

Be empathetic Personally I don’t like any groups taking over the streets but at least fairs have a history but if you’ve been suppressed for years, it’s understandable that gay people want to enjoy freedom. Charles

Animal pride At least Gay Pride isn’t as obscene as bull running or animal abuse. I know which I prefer. Jean

BEEFY: Last year’s winner David Hoffmann. By Matt Ford MARBELLA will host the second round of prestigious bodybuilding and bikini fitness competition International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness (IFBB) Olympia Amateur from Friday, June 10 to Sunday, June 12. Comparable, in scope of categories and scale, with profes-

sional jamboree Mr Olympia, which helped launch the acting career of ‘Austrian Oak’ Arnold Schwarzenegger, the contest is open to athletes from all IFBBaffiliated national federations who possess federal licences for 2015 and 2016, with all winners except Classic Bodybuilding eligible to apply for the IFFB Pro Card. The first round, held in

Kuwait, attracted 300 competitors from over 50 countries, with the Spanish version expected to be even more popular, taking place at the Palacio de Congresos Adolfo Suarez, which has a capacity of 1,500 spectators. Under the IFBB system of judging, entrants are evaluated in three distinctly different rounds of judging, plus a final

‘posedown’ round for the top five-ranked competitors after the first three rounds. In round one, they are viewed semi-relaxed from the front, both sides, and back. In round two, they pose in groups and individually in seven welldefined compulsory poses, and in round three they perform personal free-posing routines to their own choice of music.

Having a gay old time By Sam Croft THE Costa del Sol was alive with the sound of music and good vibes as Gay Pride 2016 burned a glittery heart-shaped hole through Torremolinos between June 2 and June 5. On Thursday (June 2), various members of the council, including Mayor Jose Ortiz, gathered on the balcony of the town hall, where they addressed an eagerly awaiting crowd before unfurling the emblematic rainbow flag of the LGBT community, thus signifying the start of four days of flamboyant, over-the-top fun. After the low-key ceremony, EWN had the chance to speak to representatives from several LGBT organisations, including the Federacion Andalucia Diversidad and Colega Torremolinos, who pointed out that although Torremolinos is the gay capital of the Costa del Sol, this was in fact only the second ever instalment of the event, as previous councils had issues with what they perceived as some of the more ‘unsavoury’ aspects of gay culture, namely transvestites and drag queens parading their way through the street in broad daylight. Now with Ortiz at the helm, this all seems to be a distant memory, as was made evident at the ‘pregon’ (opening speech) of the same

GAY PRIDE: The centrepiece of the weekend was the Gay Pride Parade. evening (June 2), which was supplied by the entertainers Bibiana Fernandez and Manuel Bandera. The two of them stated emphatically that although this may only be the second ‘official’ pride celebrations in the town, the spirit of the LGBT community has been alive within Tor-

remolinos for many years, and will only continue to grow stronger as the general acceptance for alternative lifestyles around the world so too continues to flourish: an assertion confirmed by a quick scan of the crowd, which included people of all ages and backgrounds. The festivities continued over the weekend

with a rollicking line-up of concerts and performances by such varied artists as the rollerskating drag queen Kelly Roller, the ethereal and mesmerising Peruvian singer Betty Missiego and Spanish icon and pop superstar Marta Sanchez. The centerpiece of the whole weekend was the much-anticipated Gay Pride Parade, which departed from the town hall on Saturday (June 4) at 6pm and wound its way over the course of several hours to the Plaza de La Nogalera, where thousands of marchers burst into the square in an exuberant display of glitter, rainbows, and of course, pride in its purest form. The festivities continued well into Sunday (June 5), as a large crowd gathered in the vicinity of the gay chiringuito (beach bar) Eden on the Playa de Bajondillo, where they soaked up the sun, sipped on cool drinks and danced well into the night. So, now that another year has come and gone, the only thing left to do is anticipate the next one, which will no doubt be bigger, bolder, and more fabulous than ever. As Fernandez and Bandera put it during their pregon: “Long live Torremolinos! Long live equality! Long live freedom! Long live diversity! Long live pride!”

The Eastern European bandits allegedly held a series of stakeouts close to the airport exit, shadowing selected rental cars to their destinations before breaking into the vehicles and plundering the contents. A number of the smash and grabs took place in Mijas, while others occurred in shopping centre car parks, with luggage, handbags, and other belongings among the items reported stolen. Police investigations culminated in identification of a vehicle used by the gang in position near the arrivals terminal, with the three occupants eventually detained after they initially scarpered in different directions when approached by officers. One of the arrested men was in possession of an awl used to force open car doors and boots, while a fourth individual was later apprehended based on additional police surveillance.

Fire damage to be very costly REPAIRING the damage caused by the fire which ripped through the residential complex Sol Playa de Fuengirola, leaving 42 families without a home since March 10, is expected to cost more than €1 million, according to initial estimates by an insurance company contracted by the building’s owners. The final outlay will not be known until the reformation work is completed, with expenditure increasing the longer the time scale, since compensation will have to be paid to those families currently renting temporary accommodation. Much of the work will be concentrated on the first floor, where four flats must be demolished and rebuilt, as well as in commercial properties on the ground floor, where the Irish pub Pogs was completely gutted following the blaze, which originated in the kitchen of the El Caballo barbecue restaurant.

After a nervous couple of minutes the man began to breathe, accidentally biting the waiter’s fingers as he did so, and the men of the hour remained on the scene, helping to calm the lucky tourist’s wife

The incident lasted a mere 10 minutes but Juan Manuel was understandably left shaken: “I was trembling and spilled a glass of sangria over a customer at the first table I attended afterwards.” The unfortunate bather was taken to the Costa del Sol Hospital and is expected to make a full recovery.

I don’t think the car is parked, man By Matt Ford A SPACED-OUT car driver may have been guilty of smoking too much ‘wacky baccy’ as he managed to expose his own marihuana farm in La Cala de Mijas, by complaining about a traffic violation to a Local Police patrol in Coin while carrying seven ki-

los of marihuana in his boot. The officers immediately noticed the extremely strong, distinctive odour emanating from the vehicle when he stopped to denounce a fellow motorist, so they decided to perform a quick search and promptly unearthed the impressive stash. The case was transferred to

the Guardia Civil, who launched an investigation to determine the origin of the drugs, which led them to a villa in La Cala de Mijas, where they found 60 adult plants and around five kilos of harvested buds belonging to the driver, whose girlfriend was also arrested following the raid.

Donors called to help THE provincial Blood Transfusion Centre went into crisis mode this week as blood stores hit minimum levels and donors were called to give blood urgently. To cater for the extra 1,500 donations needed this week to guarantee sufficient supplies for local hospitals, the centre’s headquarters at the Hospital Civil are open to those wishing to help out and give blood from 9am to 9pm, and from

9am to 2pm on Saturday 11. Those wishing to give blood must be aged between 18 and 65 and weigh more than 50 kilos, and a medical check-up is done before the donation is made. However people who have lived in the UK are advised to check first whether they are eligible to give blood, as European Union regulations concerning mad cow disease risk are strictly applied in Spain.

Dynamic demographics Portland Bobbies By Matt Ford THE latest census of Marbella residents revealed that, for the second year running, the largest non-Spanish community is Moroccan, with the Brits again second.

Among the 33,931 foreign nationals registered in an area containing 139,537 inhabitants, 4,468 are from the North African nation, with UK expats now numbering less than 4,000 as their numbers continue to decline slowly.

Nations also reducing include Ecuador, Argentina, Colombia and Paraguay. Growing nations include Russia and Ukraine and with more than 500 Russians taking residence in the last four years, although overall citizens have waned in that period.

THE three-party council in Marbella has brought the implementation of private security in the city’s marina to tender, with the process now at an advanced stage and a two year €185,000 contract on the table for the winning bidder. Under the terms of the deal, security will be provided between 10pm and 8am, 365 days per year, controlling

access to the marina, official buildings, the docks and lifts. The decision was taken after councillors deemed that the marina has specific security requirements that cannot be adequately covered by Local Police. Security guards will not be armed with guns, but will carry “weapons suited to the role that conform to vigilance legislation.”

Cannabis custodian THREE Spanish men have been arrested at Malaga Airport for allegedly attempting to send marihuana to London on a commercial flight, having successfully done so several times in the past. Among them is a man employed as a guard at the airport, who apparently facilitated passage of hand luggage loaded with the drug through security controls, while his two accomplices were responsible for packing and travelling with the baggage. The latter pair was apprehended as they tried to embark on a London Gatwick bound flight carrying 4.5 kilos of marihuana along with £335 (€428.67) in pounds sterling and six mobile telephones. A roll of €1,150 in €50 notes was also recovered from the security guard’s vehicle.

that followed and yet still remain locked in legal wrangling with nowhere to turn.

The Euro Weekly News has been in contact with British expatriates who argue that their rights have been systemically ignored, leaving them in financial disarray and having to deal with the psychological scars of conspiracy and fraud on a daily basis. Dr Rai and his wife Sunita are retired British expatriates of an advanced age who purchased a home in the Mansion Club development in Marbella, an expensive purchase considered a worth-

while investment at the time. Crucial to the high price tag was the stunning views out to the Mediterranean, but Dr Rai alleges that illegal builds later obstructed his view, considerably devaluing the property and making it impossible to sell. Despite legal entanglements for the best part of a decade, the couple’s chief concern has been their claimed mistreatment by the property operators, with Sunita being seriously injured by a glass door in the

sauna which fell and shattered, leaving her helpless for two hours and still not receiving adequate compensation despite a court order in her favour. They also allege that management has systematically made them feel unwelcome in their own home by refusing to attend to their concerns and outright ignoring them. Dr Rai revealed that the community president issued a warning through his solicitor that he should not attempt to speak with him or any officials directly and felt the atmosphere was one of apartheid, with he and his wife feeling alone, helpless and distressed. Euro Weekly News attempted to contact the Mansion Club for comment but has not yet had a reply. Theirs is only the tip of the iceberg in a long list of Brits who have been ostracised and left with significant psychological damage by the actions of many who have not been held to account.

Furious users found guilty By Eleanor Hawkins

NINE people have been found guilty of a crime of slander for publicly insulting a judge who decided to free a group of young men falsely accused of rape at Malaga City fair in 2014 and shelved the case. While in the end the young woman who reported having been raped by the group at the fairground admitted that she had made the story up as she was worried her image would be

damaged if images of a consensual sexual act were released, the judge’s decision initially sparked fury on Facebook and in comments sections of news sites, leading to 11 people being accused of slander. Now the city’s number 11 Criminal Court has absolved two of the accused, who it decided had not surpassed the limits of freedom of expression with their comments, while the other nine were found guilty and each ordered to pay €1,350 fines and €1,500 in damages to the victim of their fury.

Municipal mishaps THE Andalucia Advisory Court has ruled that Marbella City Hall must pay compensation in excess of €20,000 each to two citizens who suffered accidents on the city’s streets. In the first case, a man who tripped over a raised paving

slab in San Pedro de Alcantara centre has been awarded €21,898, although he initially claimed €54,000. The precarious slab, forced upwards by the roots of a nearby tree, caused the unfortunate pedestrian to nosedive

resulted in him rupturing a tendon in his right thigh. An amount of €21,334 will also be paid to a motorcyclist, who crashed as a result of poor street lighting and a wet road surface caused by a leaking municipal irrigation unit.

Hashish haul theft and abductions SEVEN people, including one Brit, four Spaniards and two Moroccans, have been apprehended by National Police for their alleged involvement in drug trafficking and the abduction of a man from San Pedro de Alcantara in January 2016. Inquiries were launched when investigators learned the gang had contacted a second cabal based in Manzanares, Cuidad Real, to purchase a consignment of hashish that they then stole in a violent confrontation. Two vehicles involved in the smash-and-grab were lo-

cated by police officers, one in Manzanares and a second in Cordoba, and both contained large amounts of hashish hidden in suitcases, over 20 kilos in total. Five men, plus the mugging victim, were arrested, and it turned out that the alleged raiders had also participated in the January kidnapping of a San Pedro resident who was related to a couple sought by the gang for a drug related debt worth €60,000.

On track for more facilities ALHAURIN DE LA TORRE is to get its own athletics track after a report analysing municipal sports facilities revealed that it is “the only base not covered” in a town which already has facilities suitable for 90,000 residents when its current population is just 38,500. The new infrastructure will be built into the town hall budget for 2017 alongside a swathe of other improvements, including extension of existing cycle paths, construction of three beach volleyball courts, a ‘street workout’ park, and replacement of wooden ramps with concrete in the skate park. A mezzanine will also be installed in the El Limon sports centre, which will be used for yoga, pilates, aerostep and other classes.

CHUFFED: Mayor Jose Maria Garcia Urbano surrounded by his municipal cleaning team. By Matt Ford THE mayor of Estepona, Jose Maria Garcia Urbano, and Deputy councillor of Social and Cultural Services, Blas Ruzafa, were on hand on

Monday June 6 to inspect the four new tractors and two trailers which will be used to keep the municipal beaches spick and span this summer. City coffers will not be stretched by the investment,

since the vehicles have been acquired by a lease to be fully financed by the company contracted to maintain the town’s beaches and gardens. The officials also announced that the plan to slow-

ly replace beach facilities with new ones has been put out to tender, with the first round of improvements set to include La Rada beach, which will be adapted for disabled people.

New green networks BIG plans are afoot in Las Chapas, Marbella, where local councillors and town planners have put together an ambitious project to connect the district’s various green spaces via a series of new footpaths. The network will cover some 450 hectares, and will also be suitable for bicycles, with one of the primary aims being to improve social cohesion in a poorly connected neighbourhood where 51 per cent of residents are foreign. To this end, a series of recreational ‘meeting spaces’ have been incorporated into the design, with citizens invited to submit their ideas, with a plan of the green corridor including maps on display in the lobby of the deputy mayor’s office until June 21. The documents are also available on the ‘Gobierno Abierto’ section of Marbella Council’s website for those wishing instead to submit their contributions online.

Humongous liner sails in for a visit By Matt Ford THE world’s biggest cruise ship, which is almost 165 feet longer than the Eiffel Tower, docked in Malaga around 7am on Friday June 3, where it remained until 6pm before setting sail for Barcelona. Harmony of the Seas, which cost over €1 billion to build and weighs 227,000 tonnes, arrived from Vigo with over 6,000 passengers and 2,100 crew on board, attracting plenty of local attention. Most of those on board were English, and are estimated to have brought around €350,000 additional income to the provincial capital as they spent the day on shore.

York’s Central Park. The three largest cruise liners on the planet have now called in at Malaga over the last couple of years. Oasis of the Seas docked in 2014 and Allure of the Seas in 2015.

AGENTS from the Forestry Guard and Green Patrol of the Local Police have submitted a report decrying the removal of numerous birds’ nests from the ledges of a housing block in the Olivar de las Monjas district of Ronda so that the building could be painted. The nests, which belonged to several species of swallows and swifts, were simply thrown to the ground during the maintenance work, and it is not the first time that the company involved has been guilty of violating environmental regulations, which stipulate that the nests should not have been touched. Authorities have been working to protect birds throughout the area in recent years, in part driven by the recent boom in ornithological tourism in the Serrania de Ronda.

Multiple collisions provoke tragedy By Matt Ford A PAIR of traffic accidents in Malaga Province on Sunday, June 5, saw a woman killed and eight others wounded. The first incident occurred

between Casabermeja and Colmenar just after 2pm, with a 71-year-old woman losing her life following a head-on collision on the A-356 road, in which four others suffered serious injuries.

Just five hours later a second crash, in which four men were injured, took place on the motorway from Las Pedrizas, also close to Casabermeja, producing a 12-kilometre tailback.

No quibbles here MEMBERS of the opposition Popular Party (PP) have dropped a bombshell by revealing that the Local Police complaints office on Avenida Marques del Duero in San Pedro de Alcantara is about to be shut down. The party claims that they know this due to conversations between a number of officers and local residents, so have apparently decided to leak the information, with the office supposedly closing its doors for the last time on date of Wednesday, June 15. PP Secretary General for Marbella, Manuel Cardenas, delivered the news via a statement

in which he also suggested that there has been a recent reduction in a service which was previously available from 9am to 9pm Monday to Friday. Councillor for Citizen Security Javier Porcuna, who did not confirm or deny the comments, noted that the current situation mirrors that when the PP were in office: “...sometimes remaining unattended for operational reasons,” and claiming that officers had long called for operations to be centralised at the city’s headquarters, advice that was “ignored by the PP.”

High number of terror hotspots By Matt Ford MALAGA is the Andalucian province with the largest number of hotspots at risk of Jihadist radicalisation. This is according to a new book entitled ‘The Spain of Allah’ by distinguished Spanish journalist Ignacio Cembrero, a long-time correspondent based in the Middle East and Morocco who works alongside the Centre for Intelligence against

Terrorism and Organised Crime (CITCO), a Ministry of State Security body. The data provided relates to ‘radicalisation processes’ and does not it any way mean that there is a heightened risk of attack on the Costa del Sol, which according to the figures has 1,180 known hotspots, representing 26 per cent of those registered in Andalucia and 3 per cent of the national total. A hotspot may be a mosque,

oratory, phone booth or social meeting point where individuals are susceptible to indoctrination or recruitment to terrorist groups. At least half a dozen police operations investigating alleged Daesh cells have resulted in more than 20 detainees in Malaga over the last 10 years, with most relating to networks suspected of recruiting young people for deployment in Syria and Iraq.

Disaster drill a success By Matt Ford

THE Junta de Andalucia regional government held its first ever air accident drill at Malaga Airport on Wednesday June 8, with collaboration from State and local authorities, the city port, Maritime Rescue, and the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC) which

takes place in the city from June 8-10. This pioneering exercise involved simulation of a passenger plane crashing into the sea around four kilometres southeast of the runway, with action concentrated in the port and at the airport itself. Observers from 44 countries were present to verify the organisational structure

and operating procedures in the event of an emergency, including protocols for attending to victims and their families. More than 300 people were involved in the manoeuvres, including technical, emergency, medical and forensic staff, plus various vehicles and a further 200 National Police and Guardia Civil officers.

Tigers on the prowl TIGER mosquitoes have begun to appear in the lower River Guadalhorce and have spread into nearby residential zones including Guadalmar, the Litoral Park and Sacaba. The Environmental Sustainability Department has strengthened controls, most of which involve treating the sewage network with insecticides, and an expert from Huelva is to be brought in to assess the situation. Tiger mosquitos were first registered in Andalucia in 2014, when an individual one

was identified in Alhaurin de la Torre, and the town hall has introduced a pioneering new programme in order to combat its presence in the municipality. The scheme does not intend to eradicate the bloodsuckers, since that would be virtually impossible, but does aim to significantly reduce their population by regular application of a specialised organic insecticide in the town’s parks and green spaces, while a second product will be added to ponds, fountains and other water features in order to kill larvae.

Hotel hoodlums nicked at station THREE young men, aged between 18 and 21 years old, have been detained in Benalmadena and Melilla for their alleged involvement in robberies at a Costa del Sol hotel. Police were alerted by an employee of the hotel, located on Calle Carril del Siroco, who spotted three youths staying at the resort carrying a television down one of the establishment’s corridors. He later realised that TVs were missing from two apartments in the complex, and this was swiftly followed by an English tourist waking up in his room to discover that he was missing a mobile phone, cash, jewellery and designer clothes. Other guests also heard the suspects as they attempted to access their rooms, before pretending that they were at the wrong door when they realised the occupants were awake. National Police officers managed to locate two of the bandits at Arroyo de la Miel train station, who were wearing the stolen jewellery and carrying €4,615 in cash, while the third was apprehended at the Melilla border, where all three live. The pair arrested in Benalmadena are also accused of two violent assaults on pedestrians in the town.

Long sentence and large fine for stabber By Jill Pickering A MALAGA provincial prosecutor has requested 18 years in prison and a compensatory fine of €150,000 for a resident of the Solivia district who allegedly knifed a neighbour, who later died from his injuries, following an argument about traffic.

Special needs outcry WORKERS gathered outside a Malaga City employment office on Tuesday June 7 to protest at the Junta de Andalucia regional government’s failure to pay their outstanding debt of more than €7 million, which is owed to 73 Special Employment Centres in the province. These centres depend on government subsidies to employ around 1,500 people, 75 per cent of whom are disabled. Alfonso Rubio, director of the Association of Special Employment Centres in Malaga, claims that “no special employment centre in Andalucia has received their funding since December 2014, and some are still owed the 2012 and 2013 payments. “The centres are on the verge of closing because of the regional government. Andalucia is the worst autonomous community in this regard, because in other regions such as Castilla y Leon they not only pay in advance but offer a bonus of 25 per cent above the agreed amount.” For their part, the Junta say that everything “is progressing,” and that the problems are down to “economic availability and administrative issues.” Total debt across the region is estimated to be some €40 million, which is owed to 11,000 employees, and some centres have had to cut staffing by 95 per cent just to remain open.

The incident occurred on Calle Escritor Antonio Soler in September 2015, when the victim paid a visit to the defendant in the flat, where he lives with his girlfriend, following a disagreement in the communal garage. As the door swung open, he was apparently confronted by his neighbour, who had collected a

large kitchen knife before answering, and decided to run for it, but the armed defendant gave chase, goring the victim in the neck as he caught up. A friend of the victim witnessed the attack and began to shout at the assailant, who then came towards him brandishing the knife, but was driven back as the other man

and his girlfriend hurled stones at him. Once he had departed, the couple rushed the injured man to hospital, but the knife had penetrated the carotid artery, and despite doctors resuscitating him several times the loss of blood caused him to fall into a deep coma, eventually passing away three days later.

One such band is Chambao, formed in Malaga by Maria del Mar Rodriguez Carencro (better known as La Mari) with two friends in 2001 when they became known as front runners in what was then dubbed Flamenco Chill. Now 15 years later, having survived breast cancer and with a brand new seven-piece backing band, La Mari will be playing at the Castillo Sohail in Fuengirola on June 11 as part of the Fuengirola celebrations.

LA MARI: Looking forward to introducing her eighth album.

Cancer changed my life and I appreciate the little things in life more. the Spanish speaking world. She says that she is very excited to be playing to a ‘home crowd’ as this will allow her to introduce them to her new work, her eighth album entitled Nuevo Ciclo (New Cycle) which shows how far she has developed musically as she introduces elements of Flamenco, Rock, Rap and Classical music which she sees as being a natural progression for her as the music itself is “organic, actual and very much live.” The singer speaks candidly about her cancer and the fact that after the initial shock of being diagnosed, it became a stark reality which she had to deal with, although she had help from the oncologists who dedicate their lives to helping those who suffer to fight their illness. Maria also gained strength from her friends and family as well as her “darling dog” who was there for her all of the time and seemed to sense that she was fighting off this dreadful illness. Cancer changed her life and she now appreciates the little things that she might have overlooked in the

past and she is even more careful with her diet, although she “lives life to the max because I appreciate the gift that I have been given with a second chance in life.” As well as having her own band, La Mari is in constant demand to duet with other singers and speaks warmly of working with Ricky Martin who she says is a consummate professional. One of his associates wrote the song ‘Tu Recuerdo’ with a different singer in mind but Ricky Martin thought that she had the ideal voice although when his representative contacted her she thought it might be a joke as in her words “why would a big star like him want to record with little me?” Apart from the fact that she is almost back in her home town, she loves performing in the open air “as there is nothing better than enjoying the balmy summer atmosphere and sensing the audience’s mood which in turn inspires me to give my best performance.” Hopefully, readers will feel inspired by the story of such a thoroughly nice and genuine person who is also an outstanding and beautiful singer to listen to some of the Chambao catalogue which is easily viewed on YouTube or visit http://chambao.es/.

At the time of the ‘privatisation’, holders of 5.5 million shares rejected the offer considering that an offer price of $13.75 (€11.85) undervalued the company considerably and they believed they had lost a considerable amount of money from the buy-out. A US court agreed the share price was undervalued by 28 per cent and ruled the shares were actually worth $17.62 (€15.78) at the time so shareholders will be due an additional payment, unless the decision is appealed.

Waitrose, how much? DESPITE the fact that Waitrose has a bit of a reputation for offering quality but at a price, it actually captured a record 5.3 per cent of the UK grocery market over the past quarter, according to a report from research firm Kantar Worldpanel. Repeating past results, the so called big four, Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s and Tesco continue to lose market share whilst the discount stores Aldi (plus 11.4 per cent) and Lidl (plus 14.2 per cent) show the greatest growth.

Regional benefits THE Spanish Treasury indicated it will release funds, previously frozen, with Andalucia to be allocated €164.4 million which will be useful for commitments made. It’s not clear why funds were withheld but if due to regions missing their budgets it seems hypocritical given that the Spanish interim government hasn’t done so well either.

TTIP looks to be in jeopardy THE Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, which is so heavily backed by Obama and Cameron, is looking to be very shaky at the moment. EU President Jean-Claude Junker, being aware of the antipathy shown by various member states, has called for all 28 to reconfirm their

If the French and Germans in particular delay any signing, regardless of who is elected the next US President, it’s likely the pact will be dead in the water and in view of this, Jeremy Corbyn has now vowed to add his weight to the anti-lobby.

The success of this company has seen the rise of a number of similar operations around the world, with probably the most successful in Spain being BlaBlaCar.

Smoke and mirrors INTERIM Economy Minister Luis de Guindos insists that it is perfectly possible to lower income tax and to reduce the deficit which is so irritating to Brussels. According to him “The trick is maintaining growth” as a reduction in taxes “favours consumer spending.” Naturally, opposition parties do not agree with his opinion and consider it to be a ploy to try to obtain votes in the forthcoming election.

Demise of another high street name DESPITE endeavours by administrators to find a saviour for the BHS Group (formerly British Home Stores), they have had to admit defeat and it has been decided that the store will cease to trade with almost immediate effect once existing stock has been disposed of. This means that 11,000 people who are employed either on full or temporary contracts will lose their jobs whilst there will be yet another nail in the coffin of the high streets around the UK as this becomes the largest retail failure since the demise of Woolworths in 2008. Politicians and unions have already blamed Sir Philip Green for effectively emasculating the company before he passed it on for a pound (although not of flesh) and time will tell whether he will be held responsible for pushing the group into liquidation but it may well transpire that he was simply acting in accordance with the law of the entrepreneur and technically did nothing untoward. Looking at the BHS situation, perhaps he did the staff a favour by al-

lowing someone else to give them work for a year rather than close them down himself although it does appear that the British tax payer will not only be responsible for unemployment benefits for those who lose their jobs but will also have to pick up at least part of the pension deficit. Sir Philip was knighted by the Blair Government in 2006 for ‘services to the retail industry’ and now, many people are suggesting that if he is found to have acted in a manner which is not conducive to that of a ‘knight’ and he does not refund part of the money taken out of the company, then he should have this honour rescinded. All of this however begs the question as to whether there is room for a somewhat outdated company like BHS which found it increasingly difficult to compete with modern retailing, so much of it being undertaken through the internet. This then questions whether the average high street will become even more in thrall to betting shops, fast food chains and pound shops whilst the real money is spent in out-of-town shopping centres or on the net.

THE good news is that unemployment in Spain has fallen below four million (3,891,403) for the first time since 2010 with the largest number of people finding work being in Andalucia which has reduced unemployment in the service sector alone by 78,406. The not so good news however is that a high percentage of these new jobs are on temporary contracts which may last only a few months due to anticipated increased tourism and whilst May has seen 119,800 less people unemployed, the prognosis for the winter months may not be so good. Despite future worries, this is the third month in a row where significant reductions in unemployment have been recorded and it will certainly have some positive effect with regards to the interim government’s standing in the forthcoming election. As the fourth largest economy in the Eurozone, Spain has seen considerable growth, but it still lags behind many other member states with just over 20 per cent of the potential working population unemployed and with a much higher percentage of

Whichever party or parties come to power at the end of June, or even if there is yet another stalemate and continued interim government, and the problem of unemployment which sees the country second only to Greece, Spanish politicians are going

to have to really bite the bullet and try to come up with sustainable and long term plans to reverse the situation. To some extent, the fact that labour law is generally in favour of employees is in itself something of a problem as employers are looking to

reduce their risks by offering only short term employment, especially in the unskilled sectors in order to mitigate potential damages and costs, whilst others risk their own businesses and potentially endanger staff by employing them ‘off the books’. A strong economy will inevitably

help to reduce unemployment, but there are always potential problems such as stable government, Catalan ‘independence’, influx of migrants and potential loss of British expatriate residents should the referendum call for an exit to add to the uncertainty of the future.

Unacceptable racism from the BBC LEAPY LEE SAYS IT

OTHERS THINK IT

CAN anyone tell me what the hell is going on? How on earth can the BBC offer up jobs to only black and ethnic minorities? Never mind they acted under the umbrella of some ‘Creative Access’ charity organisation, this is blatant, utterly unacceptable racism, pure and simple. In a somewhat ironic twist, the Creative Committee’s excuse for this disgraceful turn of events, was, that after watching hours of middle class white commentators failing to explain the confusion and chaos on the streets during the 2011 riots, they decided to form their organisation, be-

cause, wait for it, they felt nonwhite minorities would have a better understanding of the looting, arson and mass deployment of police. Hallelujah! So finally they are actually admitting that most of the rioters were from black and ethnic minorities! Er just a minute, isn’t that racism? Well it certainly would have been if I’d said it! Oh and by the way, I suppose it all really goes without saying that the whole sorry exercise, including the individual bursary of £19,480 (€24,769) is funded by the British tax payer? No, I thought not. To me, one remark of David Cameron during this week’s debate completely summed up the reason for his ‘in’ campaign. “When we meet to decide issues concerning the European market,” he said, “I sit at a large table with the leaders of the 28 member states and make decisions which

affect the future of all the EU countries. If we were to vote out, I would no longer have a seat at that table.” There ya go Dave. Told you the whole thing was about power didn’t I? As a final observation on the in/out ‘hokey cokey,’ it really doesn’t matter which way the result goes, we will still feel the full malicious retribution of the rest of the members. Vote out, and they will try and make things as difficult as possible. And in the aftermath of voting ‘In,’ be ordered to now knuckle down and do as were told - or else. Well I know which one I prefer! Keep the faith. Love Leapy, leapylee2002@gmail.com.

IMPLYING: That most of the 2011 rioters were from non-white minorities would have been racist if I’d said it.

Euro 2016 ready for kick-off By Matthew Elliott

Andres Iniesta.

ON Friday June 10 Euro 2016 finally kicks off with home nation France taking on Romania in Saint Denis, four years after Spain’s 4-0 thrashing of Italy in Kiev saw them secure their second successive European championship. The Red Fury, Vincent del Bosque’s highly experienced Spanish team, will be on the hunt for their third trophy on the trot in the tournament, which this year features a radically different format. Gone are the days of 16 teams sensibly divided into four groups, with two countries from each making up a simple quarter finals. With 51 games to be played, Euro 2016 will be the biggest in history, with 24 teams across six groups, and a third placed qualifier set up designed

to infuriate anyone who reckons they can plot their team’s path to the final. Ten stadiums across France will host matches, with the final at the 81,000 capacity Stade de France in Saint Denis on July 10, and the semis being held in Lyon and Marseille on July 6 and 7. With six groups, third place finishers with a chance of progressing, and the guarantee of an upset, there is no clear favourite but France will be confident of a first victory since the Zidane and Henry inspired glory days of 2000. Despite their friendly loss to Georgia earlier in the week, Spain will also be firm bookies’ favourites although they have lost some-

thing of their undefeatable lustre since their massively disappointing World Cup in Brazil. Current World Cup winners Germany will be another to watch, while the impenetrable Italian defence could see the Azzurri go far. A surprisingly young and fresh England squad will fancy their chances and, with an attacking philosophy, will surely stand out from the dourer teams of the past. They kick off their campaign with an evening fixture against Russia on June 11, before tack-

ling neighbouring Wales in an intriguing domestic dust up on June 16, sure to have local bars packed to the rafters. The Republic of Ireland face a tough group in Belgium, Sweden and Italy, while Northern Ireland will do well to emerge from a tight foursome including Germany, Ukraine and Poland. With French security in overdrive ahead of terrorism fears, the possibility of teams colluding over the third place spots, serious national rivalries to be played out, no clear favourite, and a pack of hungry underdogs, it’s finally time to kick back and enjoy the ride.

OPINION & COMMENT

www.euroweeklynews.com

Is the real issue not Brexit but EU break-up?

EUROPE: A politically changing landscape.

Nora Johnson

Breaking Views Nora is the author of popular psychological suspense and crime thrillers and a freelance journalist. To comment on any of the issues raised in her column, go to www.euroweeklynews.com/3.0.15/nora-johnson

HAS the ‘establishment’ had its day as many claim? In America, both Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders have been incredibly successful running against their respective party machines at a time when populism and disillusionment with established ruling elites are at an all-time high. Even President Obama has admitted foreign leaders are ‘rattled’ by the seemingly unstoppable rise of Trump. In Greece, the far-left Syriza party ended decades of establishment politics in 2015, while here in Spain, the left-wing Podemos party helped end traditional two-party politics, leaving Europe’s fifth-largest economy without a government for six months. Now not just the left (look at Jeremy Corbyn’s rise to power) but right-wing politicians are hitting out against the establishment because it has so little power left. In the UK we’ve had Farage for some time. Elsewhere in Europe, the rise of nationalist and anti-immigration feeling is gradually changing the political landscape and not only in eastern European states. The rise of the National Front in France and the anti-immigrant far-right AfD in Germany are causing

increasing concern to their governments. And what of the EU itself? According to a recent report, at least half of its £23bn overseas aid budget, to which the UK contributes almost 12 per cent, is lost in corruption, fraud or incompetence. The EU committee chairwoman described it as “throwing money down the toilet.” This, albeit small, example of the EU’s total lack of control over its finances is one of the factors driving many away from the Brussels project. The great thing about remaining in the EU for the present UK government is that there’s always someone else to blame for its ineffectiveness. As for the EU, they want the UK to remain as otherwise its financial contributions would have to be found elsewhere. Finding answers to Europe’s overriding problems (controlling immigration and rising nationalism, fixing the single currency, etc.) needs European-wide cooperation at a time when its governments seem ill-prepared how to respond. Maybe the underlying problem is not Brexit but EU break-up.

OPINION & COMMENT

I’m Finnish, come fly me In my younger days taking a date to the airport and a cup of coffee was enough to impress them.

Colin Bird A weekly look Each week, Colin brings his slightly off-thewall view of the world to the pages of EWN in his own irreverent style.

WE were talking about Heathrow Airport recently, and the proposals for a new third runway. Anyway, I started reminiscing, as is my wont, about my younger days when Heathrow was known simply as London Airport. In those days, if we had been lucky enough to pull a couple of miniskirted girls, we would often drive from Reading to the Queens Building at London Airport. This always impressed the ladies, as we bought them coffee and then climbed to the roof where we could watch infrequent planes arriving and leaving for unknown destinations. They could have been simply the Glasgow red-eye, or mail plane from Jersey for all we knew, but we would regale the dolly birds with our phony

HEATHROW: Hoping to compete with France and Holland with a third runway. knowledge and tell of flights from Hawaii or Rio. On one particular occasion I had been fixed up with a blind date, and we now found ourselves standing on a decidedly drafty rooftop wrapped

around hot drinks. My blind dater was Finnish and suitably built for tree felling, but a nice girl. Nice as in, well, just nice, but I wasn’t absolutely convinced about the gender.

At one point and in a horse whisper (yes that is spelt correctly) she suggested: “Do we haf rumpy-pump?” As a normal 23-year-old male, I was usually quite partial to a bit of R&P, but I was

doubtful that I would survive the Helsinki version, so politely declined. I hate pain. But I am straying from the point, because my abiding impression of the airport in those days was of a very quiet place indeed. If we saw more than four or five take-offs and landings during our visit, then it was a busy night. Now here’s what I do not understand. The need for a third runway we are told is so that we can compete with Paris Charles de Gaulle (four runways) and Amsterdam (six runways).

What about the election? John Smith Random thoughts... ALL of the parties are so relatively laid-back it’s almost as if there isn’t an election due in around three weeks. There are no vans driving around at the moment broadcasting political slogans and encouraging the Spanish electorate to get out and vote. It looks as if Podemos Unidos, which sees the alliance between left wing Podemos and the even more left-wing United Left, could actually push the traditional socialist party PSOE into third place, although there are already rumblings of discontent from some senior Podemos members about what they see as a potential communist infiltration. If the election was a pantomime, then Mariano Rajoy would be cast as the traditional villain in many minds, but despite the fact that the Partido Popular (PP) appears to have more ‘skeletons in its cupboard’ than Bluebeard, it is still pre-

FULL: A Spanish beach.

Spain is still very safe IT seems as spring turns into summer that more and more reports of deaths and attacks in holiday areas appear and this might be somewhat disconcerting for visitors and those who have newly arrived in the area, but the explanation is relatively simple. With such large volumes of visitors, many of whom are young and inexperienced, the combination of hot temperatures, easily accessed, cheap alcohol and the macho element of being away from home leads to stupid behaviour. People get drunk and misbehave and unfortunately this can lead to fights, injury and even death but it’s not a phenomena reserved for Southern Spain. It happens all over the world and often the response from locals elsewhere is much harsher than from the Spanish. If you try to jump from one balcony to another or into a swimming pool 25 metres below your room when you are fuelled by drink, is it really surprising that injuries occur and by the same token if you drink too much and get to a state of collapse do you really expect to wake up in hospital with your wallet and passport? Girls can be just as stupid and even though there is no excuse or justification for any form of sexual assault, sometimes, it could have been prevented if the girl in question had not drunk too much and it’s also true that even those who haven’t been drinking are abused by scum from any number of different countries. Wherever you go, there are good and bad people but in our experience, a lot of problems in the summer are imported rather than home grown.

missing financial targets each year. The Interim Prime Minister also entered into the Brexit debate, suggesting that things could get tough for expatriate British living in Spain should Britain vote to leave the Union, and of course big bad Margallo continues to threaten Gibraltar with the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse in the event of a Brexit, which at least will persuade any hesitant Gibraltarian which way to vote. Whilst both sides of the Brexit argument will rush to attack or defend Rajoy’s statement, it does in all honesty appear to be a bit of very transparent scaremongering to frighten the insecure, but even I as someone who wants to remain in the EU can’t take those comments seriously and most people will dismiss them out of hand.

OPINION & COMMENT

www.euroweeklynews.com

Pointless prose Mike Senker

In my opinion Views of a Grumpy Old Man I WAS having a chat with someone the other day and was told that I need to ‘chillax’ more. Chillax? What is it with these new words? I have only just learnt to chill. Now I’m being told I have to chillax which, of course, is a cross between chill and relax. I don’t want to chillax. I want to relax, like I used to. And, if I find a new bloke mate and we get on well I think I’ve got a new mate. I’m not having a bromance! Me and Mrs S went for a ride out for the day and when I was discussing what a nice time we had I was informed that ‘daycations’ are a good way to chillax. What happened to a day trip? What is the need to invent new words? Watching American Idol the geezer says the song is ‘dope’ which, when I was young, was someone we considered to be a little silly. But now being ‘dope’ is a form of compliment! The worst thing of all is using last year ’s word, whatever that is. So this

got me thinking about how people, especially politicians, have changed or invented words to disguise what’s really happened. I remember I kept reading about ‘collateral damage’ in the air raids in Iraq, etc. and it took some time for me to understand that they were killing innocent people at the same time as the baddies and even sometimes their own soldiers. ‘Pre-emptive Strike’, this is the new term for attacking people who haven’t touched you yet. To put it in a more social setting it is equivalent to going up to a man in a bar and punching him just in case he happens to spill your beer later on. “I’m glad you asked me that” means that the interviewer is not going to get an answer in any way, shape or form from the slimy, lying, thieving politician smiling like a silent assassin sitting opposite him! S o n o w I’m going to give mys e lf some downtime, put on my onesie and do something on the outer net. Maybe h av e a m unc h a s I don’t w a nt to ge t hangry! In other words I’m getting changed, going to watch TV and have something to eat. Laters!

Immigrant on immigration VERY recently next door to my brother, the former very long-standing council tenant passed away. Tradesmen moved in to upgrade the house; plumbers, electricians and decorators. After some weeks, a rewire, a new kitchen, redecorated, a family of six foreign nationals were given the keys of this three-bed semi council house. My brother thinks they are Arabs but he is not sure as they never speak or make contact. The father is a taxi driver with a partner and four children so not an essential worker and as a taxi driver with five dependents almost certainly on benefits. So long-standing local families have been ignored it seems in favour of incomers. Very angry at this and I have written to Ben Bradshaw the local MP who pretends to be unaware of this housing policy of Exeter City Council, but of course he is. I have written to the readers section of the local paper the ‘Express and Echo’ and the Plymouth based ‘Western Morning News’ to register my disgust. Neither paper have printed my letter as they are too ‘pc’ and not comfortable with the truth. Failing to be evenhanded, fair-minded or democratic I am about to write to both editors to condemn then for their failure to represent their readers points of view and not to buy their papers in future. James from Gran Alacant

Wrong again Leapy LIKE anyone else, you are of course entitled to both think it and say it, but, if you are going to say it in the press then you need ensure that your facts stand up to scrutiny from those who read it. It is in this regard that I want to correct you and the Euro Weekly News on something you have written in the subject article. If the UK was not in the EU, the Albanian fighting extradition you referred to would still have the right to legal aid under the regulations of European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), which came into force in 1953 having been established by the Council of Europe (CoE) which itself was formed in 1949 by a few founding members – the UK being one. The CoE now has 47 members (including Russia and other Eastern bloc countries). In 2007, the EU as an entity and the CoE agreed on many aspects under a Memorandum of Under-

Bad attitudes

THE most ‘Glaring’ aspect of Cassandra Nash’s article ‘Glaring Absence’ was her illinformed prejudice against Podemos. Venezuela - like all other oil exporting countries is suffering from the collapse of the price of oil. It will take time to adjust their spending commitments on health and social security to the new reality. Just as in the USA, Venezuela has a democratically elected president trying to govern with a National Assembly controlled by right-wing politicians opposed to him.

standing which was later ratified within the Lisbon Treaty in 2009. What this means is that a Brexit from the EU would not change the UK’s obligation in complying with the ECHR regulations. It would take yet another referendum on staying or leaving the CoE, not a likely occurrence I think you’d agree? Peter

Royal mistake I WISH to comment on last week’s publication of the Costa del Sol edition, there is a huge mistake on page 85 in the ‘This Week in History’ section. It seems Queen Elizabeth had more than one life apparently, and the Royal household, even in 1593, was very much ahead of this time. By the

Albert Rivera have a new found interest in Venezuela, not disconnected with the upcoming Spanish general election and the fear they both have, that Podemos appear to have overtaken Gonzalez’s PSOE party in the opinion polls. The upcoming general election is for Spain, so Podemos see no reason to go to Venezuela - though they have publicly stated their opposition to any country having political prisoners. Ms Nash should also know that the allegations that Podemos is financed by the Venezuelan Government have been dismissed as unfounded on three separate occasions by the Spanish Courts.

looks of it, they even had television in those days. I put it down as good old British humour which we need more and more. Jan EWN Reply: Dear Jan, It’s really encouraging to have readers who pay attention to what w e w rite a nd to note w he n the gremlins hit the newspaper for which we of course apologise. Because we are a multi-cultural newspaper, our Spanish colleagues who arrange the layout wouldn’t have noticed the fact that 1953 had been transposed as 1593, unless of course this was a subtle piece of revenge for the Armada which occurred just a few years earlier!

Valencia rubbish THIS is really good, I remember as a child me and my mates would go around trying to find empty bottles to get the refund back to buy sweets... it would certainly cut back on litter that gets scattered throughout the Spanish countryside along with beer bottles and cans left around the streets, this is something that should be Europeanwide!

HAVING returned from another delightful holiday in Spain it is sad to see the attitudes of politicians and others regarding the relationship between Spain and the UK, should the UK vote for Brexit. There are many British people living in Spain permanently and many, many more who visit your country regularly as tourists. Whilst the UK are glad to import fruit, vegetables and wine together with various and many other Spanish products, the income Spain receives from UK tourists and residents must help with the Spanish economy. There are also many Spanish people living and working in the UK who are welcome, similar to the welcome Spain gives to UK citizens, whether residents or tourists. Robert I Stichbury

Leapy respect I AM responding to your article and comments April 21-27 (1607) edition Costa Blanca North! I have to say I totally agree with you concerning your views on this and it has given me a newfound respect for you. I do hope that the UK votes to be OUT of the EU. Unfortunately I realise that the majority of the British are cowards. So much has been done to damage the UK over many years yet it has become increasingly obvious to me that the British have cowered down over the years instead of fighting the enemy.

Margallo offers to leave

21-Gun anniversary salute

Two charged for stealing

JOSE MANUEL GARCIA-MARGALLO told Spanish radio on Monday June 6 that if Britain voted to leave the EU, “it is obvious that Gibraltar also leaves the European Union, and won’t therefore have access to the single market.” He again raised the possibility of “shared sovereignty during an extended period of time,” despite the fact this has been rejected before.

A 21-GUN SALUTE was fired at noon on June 2 to mark the 63rd anniversary of the Coronation of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II which took place in 1953. The Royal Gibraltar Regiment fired the Salute at Grand Battery House in the presence of Deputy Chief Minister Dr Joseph Garcia who was pleased to be appointed as the Inspecting Officer on this occasion.

TWO residents of Morocco appeared in the Magistrate’s Court charged with handling a range of stolen goods including a car. The pair, 40-year-old Fatiha Abbas and 53-year-old Mohamed el Hadad were arrested following a Royal Gibraltar Police investigation into vehicles, which had been reported stolen in Spain and found in Gibraltar.

Carneiro settles claim By Matt Ford THE Gibraltar-born sports medicine specialist and former Chelsea team doctor Eva Carneiro has reached a settlement with the club over her constructive dismissal claim. She has also agreed to drop claims of sexual discrimination and harassment against former Blues manager Jose Mourinho within the terms of the confidential agreement signed on Tuesday June 6. For their part, Chelsea have apologised “unreservedly” to Carneiro as the tribunal, which was expected to continue for seven to 10 days, was cut short following a personal visit to Croydon by Mourinho just before she was about to give evidence. Dr Carneiro spent time working at the Specialist Medical Clinic in Gibraltar at the end of March, and the centre posted a message expressing their delight at the settlement on their Facebook page: “A big congratulations from us all. Eva Carneiro has been vindicated!”

CHELSEA: Mourinho practises first aid whilst Eva Carneiro watches.

Miss Gibraltar is 24-year-old Kayley Mifsud IN a spectacular event which took place on the evening of June 4, nine contestants competed for the title of Miss Gibraltar 2016 and the chance to represent the Rock at the Miss World Pageant. Apart from the ‘bevy of local beauties,’ the show included local acts and a special appearance from Kerry Ellis who has appeared in a num-

ber of West End musicals including ‘Wicked’ and ‘Les Misérables.’ The judges had a very difficult choice, but in the end awarded the title to Kayley Mifsud with Aisha Benyahya, aged 23, as Second Princess and Joseanne Bear, also aged 23, as First Princess and runner-up to Miss Gibraltar. KAYLEY MIFSUD: Won the contest.

Gibraltar Chief Scout FOLLOWING a visit to Scouting Headquarters in the UK with Chief Commissioner of the Gibraltar Scout Association, Mark Rodriguez, the Governor Ed Davis participated in his first Gibraltar Scout annual general meeting held in the Convent. Although this is traditionally very much an honorary role, the Governor entered into the spirit by wearing a scout uniform, having been sworn in to the Scout Movement and to his new position as Gibraltar Chief Scout. During the AGM, the Governor presented wood badges to various adult scout leaders who had benefitted from the Scouts leadership course and spoke of his support for the movement.

Directed by: Stephen Hopkins Starring: Stephan James, Jason Sudeikis, Eli Goree THIS earnest biopic about Olympic legend Jesse Owens might try to cover too many angles by including subplots involving Owens’ coach Larry Snyder as well as rulebending Olympic chief Avery Brundage and Nazi filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl. But when it reaches the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games, when Owens humiliated Hitler by winning four gold medals, it really gets going. The race sequences are so well shot and performed that you’ll want to stand up and cheer as Owens seems to levitate over the finish line. Despite its obvious flaws, ‘Race’ is ultimately a winner.

When I asked if he was getting any flies, he answered: “Yeah, three males and two females.” Curious, I asked how he could tell the difference. He said: “Three were on a beer can and two were on the phone.”

TIME

difficult times. The energy that this uses means that realising a dream this week could mean difficult choices to be made. Your need to be settled makes you impatient. AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) Energy is low but your spirit seems to be getting power from somewhere. At times, it feels that it is almost outside of your own sphere. When tackling what is seen as a tedious task, you may not be aware that you are building something for the future, but there is much going on that will affect your future to a large extent. PISCES (February 20 - March 20) For some time, things on the romantic front have been confusing, to say the least. There are decisions that someone has to make that affect you seriously. Romantically and emotionally, things come to a head but don’t let the wind of change blow away all that you have achieved. ARIES (March 21 - April 20) You may well feel that your business life is not going as well as you would have hoped this week. They do say that you can’t have everything right at once. TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) There is something of the rebel in you this week. Even you don’t fully understand the changes taking place. You will resist any attempt to stop from expressing yourself freely. Although you prefer a peaceful time, it may be necessary to remind someone of your rights.

Golden Hill

Places to commune with nature

SPAIN is a country of variety, with plenty of spectacular natural parks and wildlife reserves distributed across the mainland and islands which are well worth a visit. Here are our favourites: 1. Picos de Europa National Park This park became Spain’s first national park in 1918. Inhabited by goats and brown bears, it is the most visited area of the Cantabrian mountain range receiving an estimated two million visitors per year and covers land in Asturias, Cantabria and Leon.

RICHARD SMITH, a handsome young man of uncertain background straight off the boat from England in 1746, sprints from the dock to a counting house in the small town of New York at the bottom of Manhattan Island, gripping a bill for £1,000. It is a sum that could bankrupt the payee and disturb the whole local economy. What does he want it for, and is he a conman, a spy, a seducer? Rich in language and historical perception, yet compulsively readable, Golden Hill has a wildly twisting plot, and a puzzle at its heart that won’t let go until the final paragraph. books@euroweeklynews.com

3. Atlantic Islands of Galicia The Atlantic Islands of Galicia national park consists of the islands of Ons, Cies, Salvora and Cortegada and have a rich maritime and terrestrial ecosystem with elements of incalculable value. 4. Cabrera National Park The marine beds of this natural park in the Balearic Islands and its isolated glory make it a must-see for divers in particular and those wishing to experience nature in a practically virgin state. However those wishing to dive in the area are warned they must request permission from the authorities a month in advance. 5. Doñana National and Nature Park Straddling the provinces of Huelva, Sevilla and Cadiz, Doñana’s marshes and wetlands are home to a variety of species of bird and the Iberian Lynx.

Sudoku

Goat Simulator GOAT Simulator is a game where you assume the everyday life of a goat assuming, of course, that the animal has been drinking extremely large quantities of alcohol. Goat Simulator is and was a joke, the product of developer Coffee Stain studios entering a game jam and creating a mini-sandbox that promises to fulfil all of your goat-based fantasies. It is an amusing parody both of gaming and itself.

MOUNTAIN GOATS: Inhabit Picos de Europa National Park. Herons, flamingos, storks, seagulls, cormorants, falcons and eagles can all be spotted in the area. 6. Garajonay National Park Located on the island of Gomera, this national park is an ancient forest conserved in its splendid original state. It is one of the few remaining laurel forests in the world. Well marked paths allow visitors to explore the flora and fauna within the natural park although the real stars of the show are definitely the trees. 7. Sierra de Guadarrama National Park This natural park is shared by Madrid and Castilla y Leon and contains 11 different ecosystems within its 33,000 hectares. Forty-five per cent of the animal species that exist in Spain can be spotted within the park. 8. Monfragüe National Park Monfragüe is the ideal place for bird fanatics. Three hundred pairs of

black vultures live in the park, along with 12 pairs of imperial eagles, 30 of black storks, 35 of Egyptian vultures and 1,000 of griffon vultures. The park, in Caceres, also has more than 200 species of vertebrates which inhabit the banks of the Tajo and Tietar rivers. 9. Ordesa and Monte Perdido National Park Glaciers, conifers and karstic landscapes are all a part of this special area in the Pyrenees. The park has won numerous titles over recent years, including recognition as a world heritage site and a reserve of the biosphere. It covers an area of 15,608 hectares. 10. Tablas de Daimiel National Park This area is one of Spain’s best, and few remaining, wetland ecosystems. Its more than 3,000 hectares are home to otters, ducks and kingfishers among other species.

Erica Russell Watson:

I have finally been given the all clear and have a spring in my step.

My journey – and I’m driving IT has been six months since I last put pen to paper during which time I have undergone further tests and many changes both physically and mentally. One of the most significant things was being able to change my oncologist. As part of the Public Health Service patients do not have the right to select their specialists but I had quite a few concerns about the oncologist assigned to me and decided to be slightly un-British about it and say so! It would not have been possible without the help of my friend Paloma who pestered her colleague and leading oncologist Dr Carabantes to at least see me for a second opinion. This he finally did after much persistence on Paloma’s part, for which I am eternally grateful. Dr Carabantes is gentle and considered in his approach and extremely thorough. I imme-

diately felt assured and comfortable as his patient. I complained of terrible pain in my bones and I was sent for a bone scan and also an Xray on my right foot which had become so painful I could barely put pressure on it in order to walk. Thankfully the bone scan came back clear as I have to admit to being a little afraid of cancer progressing to my bones. I have seen people going through it and they are in agony and the long term prospects aren’t so good. The pain in my foot turned out to be an over pronounced arch in my foot and with exercise it has improved. I was sent for numerous blood tests to check hormone levels and other indicators and all was well. In fact my stats are better than before…cholesterol under control at last! I had scans on my abdomen to check my ovaries and saw the gynaecologist for a full MOT. I also had a CAT scan of my

DRINK UP: People need to increase their water intake.

Not enough water being drunk in Spain SEVENTY-FIVE per cent of people in Spain drink less water than is recommended by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), a new survey has revealed. The EFSA guidelines recommend men drink 2.5 litres of water a day and women two litres, yet the average amount consumed by those questioned for the survey by the Spanish Nutrition Foundation (FEN) was 1.7 litres for men and 1.6 litres for women.

The survey was done all over Spain with people aged between nine and 75 questioned about their eating and drinking habits. Water was the most consumed drink by both sexes, followed by milk. However for men alcoholic drinks came third on the list, followed by sugary drinks and hot drinks while for women it was the other way round (hot drinks, sugary drinks, alcohol).

torso to check my lungs, pelvis and other organs and thankfully that came back clear too. We had all been concerned about a very dry persistent cough I had had and worried that the micro tumours in my lungs which had disappeared after chemotherapy may have come back. Happily this was not the case. My mammogram was clear and after a scare when I found a lump in my armpit I have finally been given the all clear. I now have a spring in my step and respite from tests for a further six months. I just keep taking my ‘tamoxifeno’ hormone tablets every day. Keep up the exercise and physio on my arm. I am growing accustomed to living with lymphoedema, a swelling in the arm as a result of having all my lymph nodes removed from the corresponding armpit and thus have no lymphatic drainage system. I have now had all the tests to check I am fit for the next stage in my recovery, breast reconstruction. I will have an expander or spacer fitted which will be filled with liquid over a period of months to stretch the skin to make space for an implant. This will be a long process but

one I am happy to wait for. This summer I can look forward to visits to the beach with lots of sun protection of course! My children are also very relieved and I have seen a big change in them! I can’t believe they are teenagers and as tall as me! Where does all the time go? It isn’t just the patient who suffers when someone has cancer, it is also the people around them. Cancer can have so many impacts aside from the obvious health ones. Your confidence can suffer and you can feel withdrawn. Once again I have to thank my family, friends and loved ones for all their support and above all normality. I really believe that if you carry on as normal…everything will be just that….Normal! I am enjoying life and feeling the wind in my hair, both physically and metaphorically! What a joy it is to have cast my wig aside. It used to come off when I removed my helmet! I don’t have a motorbike …I’m just a happy passenger. I live each day to the full and I am so grateful to be healthy enough to do it. What a lucky girl I am.

Indigestion and heartburn help

By Estelle Mitchell www.thebodyworksclinic.com IT’S summer! And for many of us that means we’re getting ready to jump on a plane. Airports: Miles of walking, often pulling heavy luggage, juggling trollies and children and buggies, and the endless standing in queues. If you’ve already got a bad knee, ankle, foot or arm getting banged by someone’s suitcase won’t help. 1. Wear a bandage or a sling or take a crutch, even if you don’t need it all the time at home. This acts as a warning sign to everyone else saying ‘give me space.’ 2. Ask for help, you don’t get extra points for being a martyr, so if you don’t think your knee will cope with the miles of walking, phone ahead and ask for help! On the plane: The air pressure changes the internal pressure on our soft tissues. We all notice our ears get blocked but something similar happens to your joints. Anything that is a little bit swollen or irritated

TRAVEL TIP: Gentle movement and stretching can help while on board. before you get on the plane can become much more swollen during the flight. • Choose your seat, if movement helps an aisle seat for stretching can be good. But if you don’t want to be knocked a window might be safer. • Gentle movement, do whatever movement you can while seated, or get up if you can. • Drink water, lots of water helps the tissues stay soft and reduces swelling. • Wear compression garments, not glamourous but a good fitting pair of compression socks can keep a wobbly ankle or knee from blowing up into a problem. • Ask for help, get the air stewardess to help put your bag in the overhead compart-

ment, don’t irritate a grumpy shoulder, wrist or back. They’ll only rearrange it anyway! On arrival: If you suddenly feel worse when you get there: 1. Ice, reduces swelling but never put directly on the skin. 2. Gentle movement, staying too still can make things worse. 3. No beach massages, they often make things 100 times worse. 4. Get help, if you’re in a lot of pain after 24 hours, get help! For more information if you have a problem check out our blog, www.TheBody worksClinic.com/blog, our Facebook page Bodyworks Health Clinic, or call us on 952 883 151.

SPECIALIST: Doctor Luis Perez Belmonte. THIS week a reader has asked the doctor for advice regarding her husband’s serious and uncomfortable indigestion and heartburn problems. Dear doctor, My husband suffers badly from indigestion and heartburn every night. I keep telling him he should go to the doctor, but he insists it’s normal and says there’s nothing wrong with taking indigestion pills every night. I’m worried it could be caused by some sort of underlying problem, plus even if there is no other issue I don’t think it’s right to be relying on drugs every day which haven’t even been prescribed by a doctor. Am I exaggerating here? My husband is 55 and a little overweight. He tends to eat large dinners late at night and I’ve read that that isn’t good either, is this true? Could you please suggest dietary and other recommendations to help with his problem? Many thanks Dear patient, Your husband’s problem is a very common one which goes under the technical name of gastroesophageal reflux disease. This consists of inadequate functioning of the valve

within the digestive apparatus which stops food and stomach fluids from returning to the esophagus. This is often associated with a hiatus hernia, which stops this valve from working properly. Treatments include stomach protecting medicines, those that regulate stomach acidity and those which encourage intestinal movement, which are often very effective. Their continued use does not generally cause any particular risk, however other things can be done to limit their use. Losing weight, regular physical exercise, a balanced, low-fat diet with food split into five small meals per day with the final one well before bedtime and raising the head end of the bed can all help. If these measures do not help improve symptoms then your husband should see a specialist who is likely to order tests such as a blood test, breath test, abdominal ultrasound, contrast x-rays and an endoscopy to rule out serious conditions. I hope this helps.

If you have any questions for Dr Perez Belmonte, please send them to: jefemedico@helicopterossanitarios.com

Important tips for controlling childhood diabetes in schools TYPE one diabetes is a chronic disease most common in children and is therefore more prevalent in schools. The Foundation for Diabetes in Spain is urging teachers to become aware of the condition to help children lead a normal school life without stigmatisation. They also recommend an exchange of information between parents and the school to help the child to keep control of their diabetes. The foundation has produced numerous teaching materials as part of its new campaign which can be downloaded freely for use in schools. They recommend several tips for easy control: Facilitate a child’s adaptation to school: From the time of diagnosis, the role of the school is essential in the overall adaptation of the child to their new reality. It should enhance non-discriminatory coexistence and encourage habits that allow the child to develop to their full potential.

Support planned activities: A child with diabetes can do most activities but it’s necessary to anticipate and plan them so they don’t become a risk ensuring blood glucose levels are measured. Administer insulin: Most children with diabetes carry a multi-dose insulin treatment to be injected during school hours. If a child has high blood sugar (hyperglycaemia), it’s important that parents advise teachers what injection dose is their child needs or, if the child is mature enough, it’s important to ensure they know the exact dose. Allow blood glucose checks: Children should periodically check their blood glucose levels and if a school does not allow that to be done in class, they should provide a suitable and hygienic place. Supervise food: Parents should be given a menu of the school lunches to ensure they are suitable and canteen staff should be aware of what the child is eating.

prior to treatment and a new technique of spermatic verification, the clinic is dedicated to a personal and sensitive approach to fertility and family health.

HC Marbella is an international hospital which receives patients daily from Spain and abroad: a multilingual team dedicated to patient care speak Spanish, English, German, French, Italian, Russian and Arabic to accommodate the needs of their patients.

Problems in getting citrus trees off to a healthy start Dick Handscombe

Gardening Corner By Spain’s best known expatriate gardening author living in Spain for 25 years.

THIS week’s article is triggered by being asked to look at several disastrous one to three year plantings of oranges, man-

darins, lemons and limes. The fundamental problem was that the trees had died or were well down that route. The causes of tree and crop failures, seen all too often along the Costas and in inland valleys over the past 25 years, can be summarised as follows. 1. Failing to recognise that

limes are not as winter hardy as the other three fruits. 2. Not preparing good 50cm diameter, 50cm deep planting holes and not filling with a loamy soil mix rich in well composted animal manures. 3. Not spreading out the embryo root ball rather than just sliding the root-ball from a nar-

row pot or black plastic sleeve into a narrow shallow hole and risking that within just a few years the young roots will form a corkscrew around each other and gradually strangle the plant. 4. Feeding the plant regularly with pelleted chemical fertilisers around the trunk and irreversibly burning the tender

hairless polished roots. 5. Watering close to the trunk which often starts to rot rather than in a moat 15 centimetres away from the trunk and moving this moat gradually outwards as the tree widens in order to water below the drip line and encourage roots to grow sideways as well as deeply. 6. Watering shallowly frequently rather than a couple of times a week deeply. Watering through a couple of three or five centimetre diameter plastic water tube sets to deliver water at the level of the deepest roots can help in this respect. 7. Don’t bury all the tubing of an irrigation system under plastic and deep stone chippings so you can’t check the extent and effectiveness of the watering as set on a timer. 8. Immediately pruning young trees to shape rather than being patient for a few years to see which branches are strong to use these as the main framework of the tree as it matures. 9. Planting new citrus trees during the hottest time, June to September, is not the greatest idea. In non-frost areas it’s better to plant between November

to April and in April or May if frosty. Like-wise in frosty areas plant early-fruiting varieties that can be harvested before February as commercial growers do to avoid crop damage. 10. If planting trees in a windy spot surround them with a wind break for the first three to five years. If some trees are planted in an exposed windy part and others in a sheltered spot protected from winds by the mass of the house the latter will soon demonstrate the benefits of the milder microclimate. 11. Don’t wait until trees are heavily affected by insect and fungal attacks. Spray preventively with mild ecological insecticides like neem oil or fungicides like propolis. 12. Remove all young fruit the first year to enable the trees to concentrate their energies on creating viable root balls. Then thin out fruit for a few years to obtain sizeable fruit and not just small fruit for juicing. Hope that helps readers with current problems and readers very new to Spain to avoid problems from day one. © Dick Handscombe June 2016.

What you see is what you get With a puppy you may not know how large he will become, or what sort of disposition he will have. With a grown (or nearly grown) pet, what you see is what you get! However, it’s important to remember that what you don’t see is your new pet’s past. The

David THE Dogman

Thank you for caring about life It’s easy for almost anyone to fall in love with a puppy or kitten. But it takes a special person or family to adopt an adult pet. You’ll find there are many advantages to acquiring a mature dog. The love and companionship you’ll share are only the beginning.

PETS PAGE

NEW HOME: An exciting but anxious time for some dogs. dog may or may not have been housebroken or trained. He has certainly learned to live in different environments. Be patient and give him time to become accustomed to your lifestyle. Home at last On his first day home, show him where he is to sleep, where fresh water is always

available, when and where he is to be fed. If he is an indoor dog, take him outside at frequent intervals (every hour or two) so that he may relieve himself. Until he learns the new housebreaking routine you will have to be very watchful. Mistakes will happen, especially during the first few days when the dog feels strange in his new

Period of adjustment During the first week expect occasional problems. Your new pet doesn’t know you, doesn’t know why he has come here or what is expected of him. He needs to be treated with watchful kindness. Anticipate problems before they occur. Don’t leave tempting items such as shoes, clothing, handbags or dinner plates within reach of the dog. Having a new pet can have quite a tidying effect on a family! My time is your time Plan to spend time with your new family member. He will appreciate it and respond warmly. Long walks, periods of play or just being together will make him feel happy and secure. Many families find that the best time to acquire a new pet is during vacation at home, when they have ample time to spend with him.

TIGER: Loves company and likes to be involved. House-sitting can be a win-win for both parties, free house and pet-sitting and the experienced and checked sitters get free accommodation! To find a pet-sitter go to www.Housesit Match.com or call Lamia on +44 (0)1865521508. TIGER is a well-travelled cat as his owners move between their homes in Scotland and Almeria and he often goes with them. A healthy and curious cat he likes to be involved, especially at night when he seems particularly wide awake! Occasionally his family travel further afield and need someone to house-sit for Tiger to make sure he is in a familiar place and well looked after. They decided house-sitting would be a good solution and started looking for sitters to move in and keep him company and their home safe and secure. When online one day they found HouseSitMatch and decided to post some adverts on-

line so they could plan their year. Having a Premium membership meant they could book three sets of dates at the same time. It was so easy! Now they’re just looking for the right sitter. Are you that sitter? Do you fancy house-sitting in either Almeria or Scotland? Check out Tiger’s house-sitting adverts on HouseSitMatch.com.

Human and cat having a chat AS we all know, cats are simply biding their time, waiting patiently for the downfall of humanity so that they can rise up and claim their rightful position as the planet’s furry overlords. However, the fact that we’re wise to their shady machina-

tions makes them no less adorable. We may now be about to get to know our moggies better than ever, thanks to a new collar which reportedly translates their meows, purrs and hisses into human speech. ‘Catterbox’ has been devel-

oped by Temptations Lab, “a research workstream dedicated to the future of fun times with your cat,” and London advertising agency adam&eveDDB, who collaborated to analyse cat vocalisations and associate them with human emotions.

The collar is 3D printed, coated in rubber lacquer, contains a microphone, speaker, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi technology, and even connects to an app on your smartphone for different-sounding voices. “We’re fascinated by cats, so our mission was to get to know them better,” said Temptations global brand director Pete Simmons. “We’ve learned that an adult cat’s meow is how they communicate with humans and, by investing in this prototype device, we can start to improve understanding between them both. Although its accuracy is somewhat debatable, this promises to be a fun way for you and your cat to grow closer.

ACE CHARITY “El Refugio” in La Cala de Mijas is a registered charity. We have on average 275 dogs in our care and we receive no help from the Town Hall or the Andalucian government. We desperately need foster homes and adoptants for our many dogs, especially the small ones and puppies who do not do well in a big shelter. We are grateful for any help offered, including donations of food and blankets. Visiting times are from 13.00 to 15.00 and you can always turn up or make an appointment by calling Denise on 669 018 736. Our website is www.ace-charity.org where you can view all the dogs in our care. (93320) ADANA THE ANIMAL SHELTER IN ESTEPONA. We always need volunteers to walk and socialise with our dogs and help with cleaning. We also need good homes for our animals that you can see on www.adana.es. Kennels open every day 10-1.30, Camino de Casares, near Parque de los Pedregales, Estepona. (5 minutes from the Poligono) For more information call Marjorie 952 79 74 05 or 636 934 146 (93319) SEPE the horse and donkey charity is open to the public week-ends from 10.00 to 5.00. Volunteers are much needed in all departments and are welcome at anytime. For our riding for the disabled classes, we are also in need of extra helpers. We are nationally registered by the Spanish Ministry of the Interior (164640) but only with your support can we give the equine a voice. If you can just commit to 2 or 3 euros a month it will really help make a difference. You can find us at Lauro Golf Equestrian Centre, Alqueria, Alhaurin de la Torre. Tel. 608 258 950 info@sepeonline.net www.sepeonline.net AT SOS ANIMAL REFUGE we have dogs, young and old looking for homes. Some of our dogs have been with us for some time and would love to find a cosy spot to curl up in and a knee on which to rest their heads. If you have room in your heart and home we would love to hear from you. We do not put our dogs to sleep - no matter how old, they are safe with us. For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive. We desperately need items to sell on our market stall to help raise funds and are happy to come and collect. So if you are having a clear-out, please contact us on 605 227 155.

Century of superstar supercars By Matthew Elliott THE results of a global poll to find the world’s favourite supercar will be unveiled at London’s Alexandra Palace in October. Organised by the Classic and Sports Car Show, the poll allows motoring enthusiasts in the general public to vote from a select shortlist hand-picked by the magazine’s experts. Each expert chose three contenders from different eras in motoring history and the public are invited to choose online at the group’s website. Anyone who votes will automatically enter into a special ballot offering five pairs of gold tickets to the main event. The full shortlist can be found online and includes a magnificent range of motoring

gems, from the Bugatti Veyron to the Lamborghini Muira. “We’ve burnt the midnight oil to come up with probably the most in-depth list of supercars ever compiled, a true century of pioneering machines,” said the magazine’s editor James Elliott. “There are some incredible icons, such as Ferrari, Lamborghini and Bugatti, but also unsung heroes in the pursuit of going as fast as possible. I can’t wait to see what people vote for from each decade, and it’s going to be a real show stopper bringing the finalists to Alexandra Palace this autumn.” There will be two rounds of voting, the first to select winners from each decade and those will then compete in a final ballot, with voting to take place in September. The final-

it’ll be tough to make a choice. From a Mercedes 1908 GP, to 1930’s classics like the Alfa Romeo 8C 2900, the choice stretches right through the deep catalogue of car history.

Post war choices include the Jaguar XKSS and Ferrari 250GT SWB, while the swinging 60s boasts the timeless Lamborghini Muira and De Tomaso Mangusta. From the second half of the century you’ll find the original Porsche 911 Turbo and McLaren F1, while 21st century wonders include the Bugatti Veyron, Porsche 918 Spyder, and Koenigsegg CCX.

Tourists’ car hire anxieties ROADSIDE recovery stalwarts Green Flag have published results of a survey revealing that a third of British tourists are too scared to hire a car while abroad. Blaming the language barrier, dodgy local motorists, driving on the wrong side of the road, and hard-tofathom road signs, among other hazards, 32 per cent of travellers refuse to hire a car at all, while a whopping 71 per cent are nervous about driving on foreign soil. What’s more, 5 per cent admitted that their fear caused them to drive more dangerously, while 83 per cent said that breaking down in a country where they don’t speak the language gets them in a flap.

Suzuki shot down AS the fallout from the emissions and fuel economies scandals continues to pollute the motoring industry, Suzuki is the latest to be raided. Police swarmed its headquarters in ongoing investigations into alleged falsification of fuel economy tests and Suzuki has admitted use of improper testing methods. Last month rival Mitsubishi was found to have misrepresented mpg for 25 years, and investigators are still trying to prosecute those responsible for the Volkswagen scandal which ignited the whole affair.

Ferrari winner of engine of the year

FERRARI: Top class as awards are revealed. By Matthew Elliott THE International Engine of the Year awards are in after a fascinating event in Stuttgart which saw a V engine win the award outright for the first time in more than a decade. The expert panel of 62 motoring journalists from across the world chose the Ferrari 3902cc twin-turbo V8 as the

outright winner, taking the three to four-litre engine, best new engine, and best performance engine classes. Other stars of the show included the BMW 1.5-litre three-cylinder petrol-electric hybrid, Fiat’s 875cc TwinAir, and Ford’s ‘mighty mouse’ one-litre Ecoboost triple. Other results saw the Ferrari 6.3 litre V12 take best

above four-litre engine, the Porsche three-litre six-cylinder turbo take the 2.5 to 3litre class, the Ford Ecoboost 998cc three-cylinder turbo take the sub one-litre class, and Tesla’s full electric powertrain win the eco awards. Ferrari clearly came out on top in the awards with its V8 leading the way. The 3.9-litre can be found powering the

488 GTB, 488 Spider and the California T. One of the most coveted awards in the motoring calendar. This year’s event saw an enhanced focus on turbocharged engines and Ferrari’s success is likely to spark a new wave of creativity in the near future as competitors go back to the drawing board.

Raising the roof Jaguar’s SUV making history By Matthew Elliott

RENEWAL: Raising the mandatory renewal age may help keep older people mobile. OLDER motorists in the UK should be able to drive longer before being forced to renew their licence according to a review by the Older Drivers Task Force. At present the mandatory renewal age is 70 but this is expected to be raised by five years due to enhanced health

and safety seen in older drivers in past years, especially compared to their younger cohorts. The report points out that older drivers are more likely to be injured in crashes and therefore feature highly in statistics, but are no more likely to cause accidents in

the first place. It also notes that many elderly people are dissuaded from driving because of having to go through the rigmarole of renewing their licence and they can become depressed and less active as a consequence of forgoing their licences.

WITH the help of a rapidly growing Chinese market, Jaguar has seen its best sales in a decade, largely driven by the release of its hugely popular F-Pace SUV which debuted at last year’s Frankfurt Motor Show. Described as a Jaguar that’s an SUV, rather than an SUV that’s a Jaguar, the FPace comes with a 180hp 2.0-litre fourcylinder turbo diesel, with a 300hp 3.0-litre V6 turbo diesel and a 380hp 3.0-litre V6 supercharged petrol option for speed demons. Jaguar expects the F-Pace to soon become its bestselling car of all time, following up on the huge success of its XE and XF Saloons, which saw a huge 281 per cent increase in sales in Europe alone over the past year.

More than 3,000 F-Pace models were sold last month alone, with each unit costing roughly €50,000. Rave reviews are likely to encourage more sales as the PR machine goes into overdrive, attacking less explored markets outside of Europe and North America. A tall SUV with a sleek exterior formed from the same aluminium based architecture popularised in the XE and XF models, the F-Pace handles like a Jaguar, rather than a more cumbersome SUV, with a good feel for the roads and easy handling for a 1,775kg vehicle. Making the difference is an excellent 316lb-ft of pulling power that can take the F-Pace from 0-100kph in a solid 8.7 seconds.

Diesel drivers ‘aghast’ REGULATORS in the UK are considering increasing taxes on diesel because it produces far too much NOx and no longer deserves being promoted as a green alternative to petrol. Levels of NOx are at dangerous levels in London and other city centres, with the Transport Secretary describing the 2001 tax reduction as a ‘mistake’.

Diesel was once thought to be less environmentally damaging and more sustainable than petrol, and many drivers invested in diesel cars due to specific government promotions. The RAC said diesel drivers will be ‘aghast’ at the news, contributing €20 billion in fuel tax a year, but it’s clear the ‘diesel revolution’ is on its last legs.

La Siesta Golf Society Muhammad Ali remembered: 1942-2016 EIGHT teams of four players entered the Annual May Competition at Campoamor Golf Club, which was followed by an evening at the Olympia restaurant for prizegiving, with an excellent buffet and live entertainment. The format was Stableford, a foxtrot (one scoring on the first hole, two on the second, etc and all players scoring double points on holes nine & 18). The course was in very good condition, with high scores all round. The results were: NTP mens: Hole six,

Mike O’Reagan. NTP womens: Hole 10, Jackie Hughes. NTP all: Hole 15, Roger Bellingham. Best Individual Score(not in a winning team): Mike O’Reagan, 40 points (on handicap). Winning team: Gail Mosley, Trevor Wheeler, Kevin Johnson, Mike Bulfin, 114 points (on handicap). Anyone wishing to play with or join La Siesta Golfing Society based at Campoamor Golf should phone the captain Harry Pearson on 646 416 182.

LAST Friday (June 3), world superstar Muhammad Ali passed away, aged 74, in Phoenix, Arizona. He had been suffering with Parkinson’s for over 30 years. Born Cassius Marcellus Clay in Louisville, Kentucky in January 1942, he won six USA ‘Golden Glove’ titles and an Olympic gold medal in Rome in 1960 before turning professional. He then went on to have 61 heavyweight fights, winning 56 of them, 37 by knockout. Nicknamed by himself as the ‘Greatest’, he was world champion three times in 1964, 1974 and 1978, and was involved in two of the most talked about contests ever, against George Foreman (The Rumble in the Jungle) in 1974 and against Joe Frazier (The Thriller in Manilla) a year later. And, of course, he was also knocked down by Henry Cooper in London, but still got up and won! He refused to do his National Service and was sentenced to four years in prison, but he appealed, won his case and never went behind bars. A black civil rights activist, he changed his name from Clay to Ali in 1964 (after beating Sonny Liston to become world champion for the first time) and thereafter became a sporting hero. Whether you like boxing or not, everyone seemed to know Muhammad Ali. This is what he always told people of the world and wanted each and everyone to know....“I would like to be remembered as a man who won the World Heavyweight title three times,

who was humorous and who treated everyone right… As a man who never looked down on those who looked up to him and who helped as many people as he could… As a man who stood up for his beliefs no matter what… As a man who tried to unite all humankind through faith and love…” Like Martin Luther King, his spirit will live on… and on… RIP.

ALI: ‘The Greatest.’
