COSTA DEL SOL
YOUR PAPER, YOUR VOICE, YOUR OPINION
Caught on the run By Matt Ford A BRITISH fugitive, 19, has been held on the Costa del Sol in connection with the fatal stabbing of a young actor in the London district of Islington. Jack Stevens, from the Euston neighbourhood in the English capital, is one of five young men suspected of the
murder, and was traced to an Estepona housing estate after a European Arrest Warrant was issued in his name. It comes after Nashon Esbrand, 27, was last August stabbed after receiving death threats from Islington gang the Cally Boyz. According to a police statement, the quartet chased the victim down on push-
bikes before one produced a machete and stabbed him three times.
The father-of-one died of his injuries a few hours later.

NEWS EXTRA Coal not the goal SPAIN consumed 28.5 per cent more coal in 2017 than the previous year, the highest in the world in relative terms, after a lack of rain left the country with a hydropower deficit, according to an energy journal.
Cat fight TWO high-ranking members of Spain’s opposition People’s Party want the country to leave the EU’s Schengen Area after Germany refused to extradite separatist Catalan leader Carles Puigdemont on treason charges.
Five dead FIVE people drowned on Spanish beaches last weekend, including two in Cataluña, two in Castellon and one in A Coruña, Galica, while a 10-year-old boy remains in critical condition in Tarragona.
By Matt Ford AN investigator who recreated the death of tragic Scottish holidaymaker Kirsty Maxwell for a television documentary says she “climbed out on a balcony in Benidorm before losing her grip and falling.” Specialist Michael Brown performed a series of tests where he asked three women of a similar height and weight to the victim to climb a replica of the hotel railing she fell from. And his probe found that the 27-year-old from Livingston did not jump from the 10th floor balcony, but climbed over it and tried to cling on before plummeting to her death. Mr Brown said: “All we can say is I believe she was facing into the room at the point she lost her balance or lost her grip and fell, vertically initially, before she interacted with features on the building. “How that loss of balance or loss of grip occurred is not something I can hypothesise on. But the biggest thing that would help is if people spoke up.” In the dramatic reconstruction, the woman wore similar clothes to those Kirsty had on when she died, and each took

Kirsty case goes on 12 seconds to climb over the railing. Tears on her denim skirt were also analysed, Private detective David Swindle, an ex-police officer who has been leading an enquiry on behalf of her family, said in the BBC show Killed Abroad: “Kirsty could not have jumped directly over that balcony. “It seems far more likely that she clambered over. “But what happened next? It makes me wonder - has Kirsty
been climbing? “Was she trying to get to the rooms below? “It wasn’t very quick. What were they (the suspects) doing when this was going on? We saw how difficult it is to do what was said that Kirsty did. “It’s a small piece in the jigsaw of circumstances that you try to put together. It helps the investigation.” He added: “Nobody tested that theory. The police in Spain hadn’t used any experts. We will hand the information over to the authorities.” Kirsty was on a hen-do with pals and died seven months af-
ter marrying husband Adam in Cyprus. After a night out she entered and fell from an apartment next door to a friend’s room, and a floor above her own, occupied by five British bodybuilders from Nottingham. The men were quizzed by Spanish investigators and denied responsibility for her death, claiming she jumped before returning to the UK. Mr Swindle has obtained police images from inside their room, alongside copies of their statements, in which major holes were found during the programme.
FRESH HOPE: BBC Scotland has featured the probe headed by David Swindle.
Spanish investigators believe Kirsty could have mistaken the apartment for a friend’s after becoming disorientated, and controversially destroyed her clothes without proper DNA testing. Her dad Brian Curry, 59, has urged any witnesses to come forward as the family fight to keep the case open. He said: “We hope this will put pressure on the authorities to take this to trial. We are waiting for scientific results back from the lab and a prosecutor will look at the evidence. “We want somebody to be held responsible. To me, one or more people are responsible for Kirsty’s death.” Killed Abroad, which also investigates the death of Craig Mallon, 26, who was killed with one punch while on a stag party in Lloret de Mar, aired on BBC1 Scotland at 9pm yesterday (Wednesday).

Motorway madness
THE BIG PICTURE Nº 23
MALAGA suffers worse summer traffic jams than any other coastal province in Spain, according to new data from the national traffic authority. Statemanaged roads on the Costa del Sol racked up more than 1,700 kilometres of tailbacks in July and August 2017, topping the national ranking.
Sex on the beach COSTA DEL SOL sunbathers looking to pick up a date should head to Playa de Puerto Banus in Marbella or Malaga City’s La Malagueta, with the pair having been voted the best for meeting sexy singles in Andalucia ahead of Playa de Valdevaqueros in Cadiz by users of online dating service Meetic.
Suicide drama A MAN who tried to kill his partner with a hammer before throttling her with a mobile phone cable in a car park near the Santa Barbara industrial estate in Malaga City was later found dead in his car after slitting his wrists. The 45-year-old’s girlfriend, 42, survived the attack.
Expat boom THE C o st a d e l So l r e ce iv ed more foreign immigrants than any other part of Andalucia in 2017, wi t h 2 7 , 9 4 5 n o n Spaniards flocking to live in Malaga Province, representing 38 per cent of all those moving to the region. Sevilla was the second-most popular province, attracting just 9,000 expatriates.
HACK TO NATURE: The process is sustainable since the trees are not cut down.
Popping the cork SPAIN is the second-largest producer of cork in the world after Portugal, with 27 per cent of the world’s 2.2 million hectares of cork forest, and the annual harvest is now in full swing. Taking place from June 15 to August 15 each year, it is the ultimate example of an environmentally-friendly industry which still employs ancient methods. The process is considered sustainable because the trees are not cut down to obtain the product, rather the bark is stripped from the trunk by highly-skilled workers known
as corcheros who wield specialised tools and must train for around eight years. Normally working in teams of five, they each have a specific role, from using an axe to strip the cork to stacking the planks in piles or loading it onto mules once it is cut. The trees cannot be harvested until they are 30 to 40years-old, and after being cut they are left alone for nine to 12 years to allow the cork to grow back, the harvest taking place in a different area each year following a cyclical pattern.
Drug boats ban POLICE are to be given free rein to seize the powerful rigidhulled inflatable boats dubbed ‘narcolanchas,’ after the Spanish government approved a new law to ban their private use in the latest attempt to crack down on drug smuggling in the Strait of Gibraltar, according to finance minister Maria Jesus Montero.
Death probe INVESTIGATORS are probing the de a t h o f a 1 9 - y e a r-o ld Colombian expatriate found lying in a Benalmadena street. Pedestrians raised the alarm after coming across his body early in the morning, and initial police reports suggest he had been drinking heavily and could have died from alcohol intoxication.

Newborn horror Sex assault rap DETECTIVES are probing the discovery of a dead two-day old baby at a recycling centre on the Costa del Sol. The newborn’s naked and bloodstained body was found by a horrified employee sorting organic waste on a conveyer belt at the treatment plant near the village of Casares, around half-an-hour inland from Estepona. A post-mortem examination is expected to clarify whether the child was already dead when dumped into an or-
ganic waste container, but the investigation has reportedly been complicated since the centre receives 300 tonnes of rubbish daily from 11 towns and villages. Local hospitals and medical centres have been contacted and asked if they have recently treated any women showing signs of childbirth in an attempt to track down the infant’s mother, police confirmed in a statement.

AN Argentinian expatriate, 44, has been held at home in Churriana, near Malaga Airport, on suspicion of sexually assaulting a 13year-old girl on the Costa Blanca. It comes in the wake of a twoweek enquiry by the Guardia Civil in Alicante who traced the suspect to Malaga after the victim filed a police report. She told detectives that the man contacted her by social media and convinced her to send

him suggestive photos. But when he asked her to send him naked snaps she refused, leading him to travel to Torrevieja and demand she meet him at a shopping centre, threatening to publish the photos on social media if she failed to turn up. She did as asked and he took her to a rented flat by bus where he allegedly raped her before disappearing, leaving her on the floor.

EUROPEAN MANHUNT: Jack Stevens, left, was traced to Estepona after allegedly participating in the murder of Nashon Esbrand, top right, with Jhon Berhane and Dillon Zambon.
Brit teen murder suspect arrested From Front Page Two of the suspects, Dillon Zambon, 19, Jhon Berhane, 18, and a 16-year-old who cannot be named for legal reasons were last month sentenced to a combined 54 years after being convicted of the murder. And Stevens is one of two others investigators said were on the run at the time of the rulings. Mr Esbrand was reportedly branded a ‘grass’ and asked police for help after he began to receive warnings that his life was in danger. He told his doctor he was afraid to walk in the street because men had been after him
since he gave detectives a witness statement following a violent incident in March 2017. And on August 24 Stevens and Zambon spotted him as he walked home after visiting his week-old daughter. They chased him on their bicycles while calling in ‘reinforcements,’ including Berhane, before cornering him on a doorstep. He suffered one stab wound to the side and two to the back of his legs as he tried to escape, one of which - delivered by the 16-year-old - punctured an artery in his thigh causing fatal blood loss. A neighbour recorded the incident on his mobile phone,
with the attackers heard to shout: “What are you saying now bruv.” During the trial, jurors heard how the victim was on the phone to his father Desmond, who launched a desperate bid to find him, as the attack took place. In a distressing victim impact statement he said: “The duty of a parent is to protect their child. “From the day that I received that call I have felt a sense of guilt because I was the last person he talked to.” Stevens now faces extradition to the UK after an international manhunt led to him being tracked down.

Is it opening time for seven-day retail? Supermarkets in holiday hotspots now often throw open their doors on Sundays for peak tourist season, which would have been unheard of a few years ago. But should shops in Spain open on the Sabbath year-round? JESS, 22, and Charlie, 26, from close to London but living on the Costa del Sol “Yes! We live here and although it’s only been five months, it’s long enough to get annoyed about Sundays! But it’s not that common in countries to have them open, is it? It only seems to be England from what we have seen. The supermarkets are a big one too, you reall y

SPAIN’S new Prime Minister has vowed to exhume the remains of former military dictator Francisco Franco. “I want to announce to you that the political decision of this government is taken,” said Pedro Sanchez during an extraordinary session of Congress. “We are going to exhume the remains of the dictator Franco from the Valley of the Fallen, and this - barring last-minute changes to the means that will make this possible - will take place in a very brief period of time. “The wounds have been open for many years, too many, and the time has come to close them. Our democracy will have symbols that unite citizens.” It comes days after hundreds of protesters gathered at the controversial Valley of the Fallen monument north of Madrid, giving fascist salutes and chanting: ‘Long live Spain;’ ‘Don’t touch the Valley;’ and ‘Franco, Franco, Franco!’ Many also sang ‘Cara al Sol,’ the anthem of the general’s fascist Phalange party, while some unfurled the pre-constitutional Spanish flag emblazoned with an eagle.

The end of the bloody struggle saw the dictator assume control of the country until his death in 1975 and he is the only person buried at the site who was not killed during the conflict. In addition to Franco, Phalange party founder Jose Anto-
nio Primo de Rivera is also buried at the site alongside 27,000 fascist soldiers and 10,000 pro-Republicans fighters whose bodies were taken from mass graves and entombed there without their families’ consent. But the protestors fiercely oppose the move. Francisco Javier Feria, dressed in the blue uniform of the Phalange, told Spanish media: “There is a lot of resentment, this is vengeance against a political ideology. This
is not a Franco cult. The bodies here have to give an example so that [the Civil War] does not happen again.” Since taking office via a noconfidence motion in the former conservative administration of ousted leader Mariano Rajoy, Spain’s socialist government has announced plans to establish a truth commission to investigate alleged crimes against humanity committed by the Franco regime.

OUR VIEW Much ado about little IT almost seemed that certain parts of the Spanish and International press wanted to see street riots following the England v Croatia match in Russia. There had been some unsavoury scenes in Benidorm with a ‘stand-off’ between the police and so-called England fans following the previous match with both sides complaining that the other was at fault. There was lots of huffing and puffing and a few insults, but generally speaking there was nothing too serious although any argument or disturbance by visitors to the city was certainly uncalled for and unnecessary. The general feeling seemed to be that the Brits will be at it again (even though it has been pointed out by those who aren’t English that the Northern Irish, Scots and Welsh were being unfairly brought into this general anti feeling) but in the event, the evening passed without any problem. The media rolled into Benidorm looking for fights, the authorities had drafted in a number of specialist police who were used to handling riots and even the British (not English) Foreign Office advised people to be calm. There is an old saying about giving a dog a bad name and in fairness, the combination of football, booze and heat could well have resulted in things getting fractious but thankfully, those England fans (and others who decided that England was part of the United Kingdom and they could offer their support) who were there, decided to just have a good time and either drown their sorrows or celebrate the best achievement of an England team since 1990. Long may the peace last.

Card scammers held Airport strike Brits rack up €11,000 luxury hotel bill threats By Matt Ford
TWO British holidaymakers are among five men held in Mallorca on suspicion of running up an €11,000 hotel bill using fake credit cards. The group - also including an Irishman and two Germans were arrested at a four-star Magaluf resort complex 24 hours after being charged with pulling the stunt at the five-star Hilton Sa Torre in Llucmajor. They were remanded in cus-
tody overnight before being freed on bail and immediately checking into Me Mallorca, allegedly using a second series of cloned bank cards after the first batch was seized. One of the five is believed to be a child, and investigators reportedly found a machine used to produce the cards during the second swoop. It comes after four Britons, including a woman, and an Irishman were earlier this month held on suspicion of us-
ing counterfeit credit cards to pay for expensive stays in holiday hotspots including Lloret de Mar on the Costa Brava, Cataluña. Detectives said in a statement the men had been charged with defrauding a series of luxury hotels for around €2,000 each.

SPANISH workers’ unions have announced that more than 60,000 baggage-handlers and other airport staff are to strike on unconfirmed dates at the beginning of August.

It added that labour mediation agency SIMA has been asked to act as a peacemaker in an effort to avoid the strikes, which are likely to spark chaos for travellers across Europe.

By Matt Ford THE Irish teenager whose body was recovered from a lake in a Spanish natural park has been named as Joshua Osahon. The 19-year-old was reportedly born in Nigeria but emigrated to Portlaoise, Leinster with his parents, who have flown to Spain to see his body. Joshua died on a trip to Las Lagunas de Ruidera in CastillaLa Mancha, between Albacete and Ciudad Real. He vanished during a postdinner swim with classmates at La Salvadora lake - one of the 15 lakes that make up the park with the group failing to notice he was missing because it was dark when they left the water. But after several minutes they realised he had failed to collect his clothes, sparking a search, with emergency services alerted when he could not be found. Investigators probing the incident said in a statement they believe he died from natural causes after suffering a cramp or cardiac arrest since the lake is a popular, safe bathing spot and the victim is believed to have been a strong swimmer.

JUST €3.6 million out of more than €500 million of fines for corruption in Marbella have been collected by the state. Most of the fines emanate from the Malaya case, with disgraced former head of town planning, Juan Antonio Roca, sentenced to pay a penalty of €240 million for money laundering. Described as the ‘mastermind’ behind the corruption investigated by Malaya, he was released from jail in March after serving 12 years. But he has only paid €496,668 of his massive fine. Many of his assets have been seized and auctioned off - but the proceeds of these sales go to Marbella Council as the hurt party. In total, Marbella has collected €28 million of the €300 million awarded to it by courts in various corruption cases. This figure will soon be boosted as it is due to receive properties worth €15 million seized from Juan Antonio Roca. Lawyer Juan German Hoffmann, sentenced to pay a fine of €22 million in the Malaya case has paid €425,869 and is currently on the run. Oscar Jimenez, considered a figurehead for Roca and ordered to pay €520,000, has paid a figure nearer half of that.

Travel ban lifted By Matt Ford A CHARLTON ATHLETIC footballer accused of sexually assaulting a British holidaymaker in Ibiza has been allowed to fly back to the UK. Striker Reeco HackettFairchild, 20, had been unable to leave the island for over a month after a Spanish judge ordered him to hand over his passport. He missed the start of preseason training as well as a friendly match against Queens Park Rangers, and was warned he could be forced to stay on the island for months in the wake of the alleged attack on a 19-year-old woman. However his lawyer Jaime Campaner successfully managed to fight for his travel ban to be lifted and bail conditions changed. It comes after investigating judge Carmen Martin Montero agreed to watch videos recorded on his and his 20-year-old team-mate Karlan AhearneGrant’s mobile phones. The pair were arrested on June 12 alongside pal Olusola Odejayi, 26, after the alleged victim’s parents told police she had been attacked in a hotel near San Antonio while on a family break. Detectives were told that one of the men - later identified as Odejayi - then forced himself on the young woman while Hackett-Fairchild held her down and Ahearne-Grant filmed the scene on a mobile
Footy star back in UK as sex probe goes on phone. But it later emerged that the ‘victim’ engaged in a sex act with the player before the alleged assault, after she confessed to ‘kisses and sexual things’ when quizzed in court. Asked to specify what had occurred by Campaner she replied: ‘Oral sex.’ She then said she failed to confirm it in her initial police statement due to nerves, while the three men have always maintained their innocence. Hackett-Fairchild has now been allowed to fly back to London after Campaner convinced the judge and state
prosecutors to watch the videos, which he earlier claimed would prove the women had consensual sex with two of the accused. Ibiza’s Court of Investigation Number Three is reportedly still waiting for the results of forensic tests, after the medic who examined her last month said there were no signs of injury or bruising to suggest she had been raped. The judge who initially quizzed the suspects described their version of events as ‘credible and coherent,’ and said there existed ‘reasonable doubts’ that a sexual assault

Sex law reforms unveiled PM pledges changes as court upholds ‘wolfpack’ bail By Joe Gerrard SPAIN’S Prime Minister has told lawmakers he plans to table new sexual assault laws clarifying what classes as rape. Pedro Sanchez’s announcement comes as a court in Navarra ruled the five members of the self-styled La Manada (wolfpack in English) gang could remain free on bail. They were jailed after the court found them guilty of sexual assault but acquitted them of raping an 18-year-old woman during the San Fermin Bull Run Festival in Pamplona. The left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) Prime Minister said his proposed laws would create a ‘yes means yes’ standard for consenting to sex. A similar law came into force in Sweden last month and classes sex without explicit consent as rape. “To be clear, ladies and gentlemen, if they say no it means no, and if they don’t say yes, it

She said they would guarantee the ‘autonomy, freedom and respect’ to people where sex was concerned. Prosecutors seeking to con-
vict defendants in rape cases in Spain currently have to prove that violence or intimidation was involved. They were unable to do so in La Manada case, meaning the crime was downgraded to sexual assault which carries smaller penalties. The announcement comes as the Second Section of the Court

Marihuana, the powerful hallucinogenic DMT, the San Pedro cactus - also known as peyote - and psychedelic mushrooms were amongst the narcotics handed out. Police consider that the shaman endangered the lives of his victims as some of them suffered psychological problems, schizophrenic outbreaks and emotional dependence after the ceremonies. In some case women suffered breathing problems during the rituals. So far seven victims have been identified, although police believe the trio operated across all of Spain. The police operation was carried out by the Judicial Police Brigades of the Provincial Police Station of Alicante and that of the Superior Headquarters of the Balearic Islands, who tracked the trio for months.

Peru sect leader remanded By Dilip Kuner
RESCUE: Santa Barbara Castle. A TOURIST who toppled off the walls of Alicante’s Santa Barbara castle probably lost balance while he was taking a selfie, say police. Firefighters had to call in a helicopter to rescue the 23year-old Italian man after he had plunged 25 metres at the city landmark perched on top of
Monte Benacantil. The man had suffered a traumatic brain injury and multiple injuries to his body. Hospital authorities have not given an update on his condition. Personnel from the Provincial Consortium rescue group joined firefighters in the rescue operation in an area ‘of difficult
access’ on the steep slopes beneath the walls of the castle. A castle worker alerted Local Police to the incident, saying there was an injured person in the Baluarte de la Mina area. Medics stabilised the man’s condition before he was flown to San Vicente Park, where an ambulance was waiting.
THE leader of a sect who allegedly held an Elche woman captive for a year-and-a-half has been remanded in custody for nine months by a court in Peru. The judge decreed that Félix Steven Manrique should remain in custody and at the same time gave prosecutors four months to conclude the investigation as well as to prepare and present evidence. Patricia Aguilar has become a cause célèbre in Spain and abroad after her family undertook a long campaign to secure her freedom from the clutches of the sect called Gnosis. The 18-year-old had left her Elche home in 2017 and is thought to have been persuaded to
travel to Peru to join Gnosis. Once there, it is alleged she was not permitted to leave. Her father, however, started a search for her, and his efforts eventually paid off after a year of relentless effort including two visits to the Andean country. Police found her in a house hidden away in the San Martin de Pangoa jungle, 500 kilometres away from where she had last been sighted. There they found her looking after the children of other women, several of whom had also been reported as ‘disappeared.’ She is also a mother herself now, with a child born just two months ago. The investigation is looking at the alleged illegal detention of Aguilar and two other women by the sect led by Manrique. The women are in the care of Peru’s Ministry of Women, where they will get psychological help.

DRAMATIC SCENE: Calle San Juan.
Hero catches toddler TRAGEDY was averted when a passer-by managed to catch a three-year-old boy who had plunged off the balcony of a second floor apartment. A man walking along Calle San Juan in Puerto Mazarron, Murcia, was alerted to the youngster’s plight by the screams of witnesses. The quick thinking hero managed to position himself and catch the boy in mid air. It is thought the youngster hit a first-floor balcony railing, helping to break his fall. The boy’s parents were blissfully unaware of the drama as they sat inside their apartment, not
realising their son had made his way onto the balcony and was in mortal danger. The heroic passer-by, who has not been named, immediately phoned the emergency services. When Guardia Civil arrived they found ‘the child was fine,’ according to a police spokesman. The boy was still taken to hospital as a precaution. Now Guardia Civil have opened an investigation, although they do not anticipate making any charges, said the spokesman. He explained: “There is no responsibility on the part of the parents, as it is an oversight. It would be different if they were not at home at the time it happened.”

Mile high drama
FLIGHTMARE: The incident took place on an easyJet flight. A MUM who downed three quarters of a bottle of sangria, then was given a tranquilliser by doctors, has been spared jail after attacking her husband on an easyJet flight. Sharon Simmonite, 46, was arrested at John Lennon Airport, Liverpool, after she lost control of her emotions while jetting home from a holiday in Mallorca. A court heard that events began to get out of control soon after the couple arrived at Palma airport around 9pm on April 13. Simmonite made a trip to the loos and when she came back five to 10 minutes later her husband, Mar-
tin, noticed a change in her behaviour. He believed that she had finished off the contents of the bottle of sangria, which he had earlier seen in her bag - although she denied this. Soon after she fell, and doctors called to the scene to treat her bruising decided to give Simmonite, who was said to be upset and angry, a tranquilliser to calm her. The couple later boarded the flight with one of their young children, where, according to the prosecution, she seemed relaxed. But it turns out it was the calm before the storm, Liverpool magistrates heard. When cabin crew came round offering refreshments Simmonite asked for four glasses of wine. When she was refused service, with crew explaining easyJet does not serve alcohol on the Mallorca route, she became angry, according to the prosecution. She then accused her husband of telling staff not to
serve her booze before rummaging through galley lockers in a search for alcohol. Crew intervened and asked her to to go back to her seat. On her return she struck her husband on the arm with a clenched fist five or six times, the court heard. Cabin crew once more intervened and moved Mr Simmonite and the couple’s son to seats at the front of the plane. Simmonite, of Middlewich, Cheshire, admitted being drunk on an aircraft and assaulting her husband. For the defence, it was said she had been a heavy drinker for years and suffered from an eating disorder. The court was told she had not eaten for 10 days and was drunk on arrival at Palma airport. The defence said she had shown remorse and that she was a vulnerable woman. Magistrates sentenced her to eight weeks jail, suspended for two years. She was also handed a rehabilitation order.

Recently, the Directorate General of Registrars and Notaries (DGRN) in Madrid rejected a Deed of Acceptance and Adjudication of Inheritance of a deceased Iranian national specifically because the share distribution allotted to the sons doubled that of t h e d a u g h t e r s , i n a c c o rdance to the law applied to the inheritance - article 907
of the Civil Code of Iran. The DGRN invoked article 12.3 of the Spanish Civil Code that states that ‘in no event shall foreign law apply where it is contrary to public policy,’ arguing that it was against public policy because i t i nf r i nged substantial Constitutional legal precepts as well as treaties on i nt er nat i onal hum an rights, as for example prohibition of discrimination of grounds of gender. Interestingly, the DGRN rejected the discriminatory rule even after the daughters had stated that they had ‘freely and without coercion’ accepted the ‘divine’ allocation of assets. Other Islamic inheritance principles will probably suffer the same fate should they be closely scrutinised; for example, the express prohibition for Muslims to inherit from non-Muslims, and vice versa, in intestate inheritances. And it goes without saying that ‘apostates’ that under Shariah Law will lose their rights to testate but also to inherit, will not h a v e s u c h e ff e c t s r e c o g nised on Spanish-based assets.

Get your Plusvalia tax back. Supreme Court in Spain confirms Costa Luz Lawyers By María L. de Castro Lawyer. Director. Costaluz Lawyers
WHAT is Plusvalía tax? The Plusvalía (or tax on the increase of value of the lands of urban nature) is a municipal tax that taxes the profit obtained with the sale of a property, taking as references of the calculation, the original acquisition value and the price at the time of sale. What can I claim? If you sold at a loss but still were forced to pay a tax to the Local Council in the last four years, you can claim that tax back. Is it a safe action? It is, after this recent decision by the Supreme Court where this Court states that when there is an increase in value,
it must be taxed according to the objective rules of the tax, and if there are losses, there is no taxation possible. S h o u l d t h e t a x b e p re s e n t e d a n d liquidated, in any case? Yes, sellers are obliged to present liquidation where they accredit this principle of proof that there is no increase in value. I t w i l l b e d i ff i c u l t t o p r o v e t o t h e judge this situation of losses? No, after this Decision by the Supreme Court as the High Court has affirmed that the deeds of purchase and s a l e a r e s u ff i c i e n t t o p r o v e t h e l o s s without ruling out the expert report. If the Administration has something to oppose, it must prove it. That is, Supreme Court places the burden of proof in favour of the taxpayer.

TAPAS’ double treat
CHORAL : Guest artiste Stacey Taylor (centre) with the TAPAS choir. THERE was a double treat for lovers of the arts when TAPAS (The Andalucia Performing Arts Society) put on two successful sellout charity performances in less than a month. First, TAPAS put on an ‘In The Mood’ dinner dance, with the TAPAS choir, guest artistes Stacey Taylor from the UK and local singer Roy Potter. Swing was to the fore, with Choir Director Kevin Turner’s arrangement of Glen Miller’s ‘In The Mood’ opening the show. The capacity audience sang along and danced till late. The second event was a pro-
duction of murder mystery play, ‘Who Killed the Hotel Manager’ written by British playwright Chris Martin and directed by TAPAS’ Diane Williams. Played to a full house, the audience tucked into dinner, whilst mulling over the clues and trying to solve ‘whodunnit.’ “Organising and promoting one large music or drama event needs a huge amount of effort. Holding two very different types of public performances within less than a month is no mean feat I can tell you,” said
Bob Stopforth, the TAPAS chairman. “It was a challenge, which TAPAS volunteers and our event organiser handled extremely well. To have sellout audiences each time was fantastic.” Linda Chadburn TAPAS Treasurer said: “Money raised at both performances will be added to our end of year donation to our chosen charities Debra, the Butterfly Children’s Charity and local animal charity Arca Noah.” Both events were held at Las Cabales restaurant, on the Cártama/Coin road.

How much mortgage can I get? Mortgage Expert by Sara
WHEN looking to buy a property in Spain, securing a mortgage would probably be one of the first steps in the process for most people. Bank in Spain is a mortgage broker specialised in expats and international clients buying a house in the sun. “‘How much mortgage can I get?’ is normally the first question we get,” Sara Stannard says. She works as a British Client Advisor in the mortgage broker, Bank in Spain, specialised in expats and international clients buying their holiday home in Spain. “The maximum you can get in a mortgage, would be 70 per cent of the purchase price excluding taxes and fees. “The best conditions you get are on mortgages up to around 60 per cent of the purchase price.” Sara continues, “Different from the UK, Spanish banks do not include the costs related to buying a property nor the costs related
to taking out a mortgage. For several years after the financial crisis, many Spanish banks were reluctant to offer new mortgages. This has now changed and the banks are once again open for lending out money. “We are not yet back to the mortgage boom we saw before 2008, but now the competition is fierce between the banks on good mortgages,” she continues. The number of mortgages signed in Spain has seen a steady increase since 2014. Only in 2017, the increase was close to 10 per cent as compared to the previous year. Despite this increase, we are still a long way from the mortgage boom of 10 years ago. According to the Spanish National Statistics office, the number of mortgages signed in 2017 was only a mere 25 per cent of the mortgages signed in 2007 - at the top of the boom. The conditions offered to expats vary surprisingly between the banks, but in some areas they are similar. Interest-only mortgages and 100 per cent mortgages are a thing of the past. “Currently, 100 per cent mortgages are only offered on certain bank repossessions with no option of selecting the lender.”

Ryanair staff confirm strikes BUDGET airline Ryanair is facing more disruption after staff announced a new round of industrial action. It comes after a trade union announced that Ireland-based pilots will strike for 24 hours tomorrow (Friday) and next Tuesday. Cabin crew are also set to strike for 48 hours in Spain, Portugal and Belgium and 24 hours in Italy next Wednesday. The news follows a one-day strike by pilots in protest at their pay and conditions last week after the carrier bowed to pressure from staff to
by Matt Ford recognise unions. It was forced to cancel 30 flights between Ireland and the UK as a result. Complaints include a seniority row, plus allocation of base transfers, the structure of promotions and annual leave. Ryanair apologised in a statement for the ‘regrettable disruptions’ and pledged to minimise impact on holidaymakers flying to Spain, Portugal, France, Italy and Greece. But the Irish Pilot’s Association announced the two additional days of ac-
tion in the midst of the strike. It added that while some agreement had been reached in talks a day earlier, there remained a difference of opinion over the terms of reference for a working group to study the pilots’ concerns. Ryanair’s chief people officer Eddie Wilson described the meeting as constructive but very frustrating, according to Irish media, adding that the company was available for further discussion. Last autumn the carrier cancelled hundreds of flights after a rostering blunder saw it left with a lack of crew.
ALMOST half of Spain’s electricity was generated from ren e w a b l e e n e rg y s o u r c e s o v e r the first six months of 2018. Wind, hydro and solar power together accounted for 45.8 per cent of the country’s demand, according to a report by national grid operator Red Electric de España. It comes after hydropower soared by 74 per cent compared to 2017 in the wake of a wet spring, with the storms also driving a 10.4 per cent surge in wind power, the summary said.
UK imports salad as heatwave hits crops

Cashed in TIP OF THE ICEBERG: A lettuce field in Almeria. THE UK is flying in lettuce from Spain and Poland after warm weather hit crops and increased the demand for salad. Tony Clemence, general manager of wholesaler Total Produce in Bristol, said the company is importing around 40 per cent of its iceberg lettuce and 40 per cent of celery from the two countries, when all supplies are normally sourced from British growers
during the summer. “Spain is mainly growing for its local markets at this time of year, so there is not enough to go around and some will have to look further afield,” he said. Wholesale prices have reportedly soared by more than 30 per cent after the recent blast of heat added to problems in March when the ‘beast from the east’ wave of cold weather delayed planting.
THE Spanish government has revised its 2018 budget deficit forecast from 2.2 to 2.7 per cent of gross domestic product in order to boost pensions, improve health care and take over toll-motorway concessions, Budget Minister Maria Jesus Montero has announced.

focused peers. Now it is in its rightful place, not just Spain’s biggest bank, but also the one with the biggest domestic share, too.” Santander Group CEO Jose Antonio Alvarez said, “Our goal is to help the people and businesses we serve to prosper, and I am proud of the work our people do every day to support that goal and earn the loyalty of our customers.”

Fine mess for mobile users DRIVERS CAUGHT ON PHONE TO PAY MORE DRIVERS caught using their mobile phones in Spain are set to face heavier fines. It comes after Pere Navarro, the new head of the national traffic authority (DGT), announced plans to reduce the number of fatal accidents on the country’s roads. The DGT is hoping to change existing laws so that offending motorists also receive more than the current three penalty points on their licence if caught chatting or texting. Financial penalties for recurring or infractions considered dangerous will also be stiffened, but are set to be reduced for less dangerous offences. Drivers told to take refresher courses will also be handed eight penalty points rather than the current four. Distractions at the wheel are the leading cause of fatalities on Spanish roads ahead of drink driving and speeding, the official said. “We’re going to update the pointbased licence. After 12 years, my own roadmap says we need to stop, take stock and use our accumulated experience to update and review the system,”
GOOD CALL: New DGT chief Pere Navarro has big plans. he added at a press conference discussing fatal traffic accidents in 2017. Navarro was previously in charge of the DGT under former socialist leader Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, between 2004 and 2012, when the points-based penalty system was
first introduced in Spain. He last week accepted an offer from Pedro Sanchez’ new government to reassume the post in the wake of Mariano Rajoy’s conservative People’s Party being ousted from office. “When it comes to road safety, our
indicator is very visible: the death toll. The figures set our path for us,” he said. “We need to do something about secondary roads, we need to do something about motorcycles, we need to do something about cities, about distractions, about pedestrians.” The official pointed out that 46 per cent of those who died on Spanish roads last year were pedestrians, cyclists or motorcycle riders. He added: “This trend is on the rise, which means that in two to three years there are going to be more deaths among these vulnerable groups than among drivers of four-wheel vehicles.” The points-based system came into effect on July 1, 2006, with 75 per cent of Spanish drivers failing to pick up a single point over its first decade. Spain currently ranks eighth in the European Union for road safety, three places lower than last year, although the death rate of 39 per million inhabitants is beneath the bloc’s average of 50. “It’s true that we’re on the good side of the European average,” said Navarro. “We’re very good at road safety.”

If only snowflakes would melt away … LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT ONE of the real problems with the social media is that it allows the snowflakes and bordering nutters to seek each other out. Whereas, at one time someone with totally offthe-wall ideas would hardly come across any likeminded individuals, they can now contact them at the touch of a button. It stands to reason, if you can air your views to everyone in and around your vicinity, or indeed the whole country, you are going to find more supporters than standing on a street corner banging a drum and handing out leaflets. Although there seems to be a positive glut of gaggle heads these days, there are in fact no more than there ever were, they are just a bit more linked up that’s all. Solo individuals have now turned into ‘minority groups’ and we all know they are a part of the ‘flavour’ who seem to get all the preferential treatment these days! This latest bunch are a glaring example. Drunk with the power of getting national media coverage to get wolf whistles classed as a criminal offence, they are now advocating that ANY praise by male of the species, including reference to articles of dress or attire, be classed as a misogynistic ‘hate crime.’ I say Miss, ‘What a lovely pair of
GIVE ME A BREAK: Is a man complimenting a woman really committing a hate crime? shoes your wearing. Where did you get them?’ ...... ‘Help. Police. Hate Crime. Hate crime in progress.’ Doo da, doo da ..... give us a break. I suppose praise from a female is ok? Well be a bit careful lady, the woman admiring your hat at Ascot could be a gender bender; another load of codswallop dreamed up by these people.
To be honest I’m surprised most of ‘em even have the courage to walk out of their own front doors. Some of their projects can be very dangerous indeed. They all seem to have completely one-track minds and, because they all appear to suffer complexes of inferiority and inadequacy, are com-
pletely unable to accept, or even listen to any other points of view. One example is their ongoing insistence that babies, and young children, who show a tendency to play with toys or enjoy dressing up and indulging in the games of their opposite sex, should be immediately and relentlessly encouraged to grow up in that sexual gender. This was recently shot down by one eminent psychiatrist who, on examining a young boy who showed a great deal of interest in feminine toys, etc, had in fact a younger sister who suffered from a debilitating illness. This led to the parents showing her more attention than they had the older lad. In the little boy’s mind he interpreted this as a favouritism towards girls. He thought that if he acted more like a girl, he would attract the same attention as his sister. It had nothing to do with his gender whatsoever! Oh yes, these sorry snowflakes are dangerous alright. And terrible wasters of our most precious possession: Time. Why don’t they all stick on a burka and move into areas where they will not be noticed by anyone? And certainly not listened to!

Bad loser Cassandra Nash A weekly look - and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene
ALBERT RIVERA, the pro-Constitution leader of Ciudadanos and one of the 50 per cent of Catalans who do not want independence slated Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez for receiving Quim Torra in the Moncloa. Rivera dismissed Sanchez as a populist and condemned him for receiving someone who was not a democrat. Better look for another stick to beat Sanchez with. Successive Spanish presidents have received dodgy visitors without a murmur, the last of whom was the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. Less of a tyrant than his grandfather, admittedly, but no shining example of democracy. Poor Albert! He’s still smarting because Pedro Sanchez stole his presidential thunder, wrong-footing and outsmarting him to get into the Moncloa with that amazingly successful vote of no confidence.
Victory of the German doctor
Lie of the land WITHIN a day or so, either Soraya Saenz de Santamaria or Pablo Casado will be chosen to lead the Partido Popular now that Mariano Rajoy is tending his garden in Santa Pola. To Casado’s irritation, people keep harping on about the master’s degree he picked up so effortlessly in 2008 without attending one lecture. “It’s rather a coincidence that just as I presented my candidature something that happened 10 years ago should acquire so much media, academic and legal importance,” he said with hurt surprise. Not very perceptive of him. Nobody gives two hoots about Casada’s academic record. What they care about is the fact that he could be lying about it and if he can’t see what’s wrong in that, he’s even worse than the usual run of politicians.

BITTER?: Albert Sanchez.
Ain’t we got fun SPAIN’S economy looks good on paper but seems not to have reached everyone’s pockets. The country’s statistics office INE found that the 20 per cent who are Spain’s lowest earners are 15 per cent worse off than they were before the crisis. The 20 per cent who earn most are only 1 per cent worse off, INE said, while the top layer of affluent households earned 6.6 times more than the lowest-income families. Disraeli reputedly said, ‘There
PASCUAL MARAGALL was the socialist mayor of Barcelona between 1982 and 1997. In the 1999 regional elections, he was the most-voted presidential candidate but owing to the way the electoral system distributes seats, Jordi Pujol was again invested as Cataluña’s president. Maragall finally made it, with the help of Esquerra Republicana and the largely forgotten ICVEUIA in 2003 and remained president until he resigned in 2006. In 2007, Maragall admitted that he had Alzheimer’s. Echoing Cervantes, he joked: “The German doctor whose name I do not care to remember will win the

game in the end.” Not long ago Maragall’s daughter Cristina told an El Mundo interviewer: “If my father were well, perhaps we wouldn’t have arrived at this in Cataluña.” Maragall himself, like many Catalan socialists, possibly had a yen for independence but it remained latent and rational. Eleven years later Maragall no longer knows who he is or was and the ‘German doctor’ is winning. Like Maragall, many Catalan politicians are unsure of their identity, the least rational of whom is the self-exiled Carles Puigdemont, but unlike him there is no excuse for them.
no-one would willingly agree that ‘In the meantime, in between time, ain’t we got fun.’ Frankly, we ain’t. columnists@euroweeklynews.com

TV COUCH CRITIC by Adam Whalley-Lewis WELL, we did it. Whether you watched the World Cup and/or Wimbledon, or if you did your best to avoid them, Sunday saw them both conclude - unfortunately at about the same time. I think a lot of us were flicking between Moscow and SW19 last Sunday trying to keep up . Now, you know I can’t explain the off-side rule and I can’t play tennis for toffee, but I did get caught up in the football and in the latter stages, the tennis too. I might have missed the Men’s final if lovely friends from London, Ray and Louise, hadn’t sent me a copy of a well-known newspaper and jogged my memory via its sports section! I enjoyed the tennis. I liked the genuine affection the Ladies’ finalists showed for each other and for once, Djokovic dropped the arrogant act and was nice about his opponent too. It is a shame that British competitors who made it through to the finals in the wheelchair doubles, mixed doubles and in the Boys competition were difficult to follow, just because there was no BBC visibility of when these matches were being played or if, or when, the BBC were showing them. The British pair won the wheelchair match and got hardly a mention anywhere. Oh and France won the World Cup. Felicitations La France. If you are a fan of The Voice (if you are, worry

THE VOICE KIDS: Judges Danny Jones, Pixie Lott, Will.i.am and presenter Emma Willis. not, there is help out there, no really there is) you probably found yourself watching ITV’s The Voice Kids. The show kicked off last Saturday and is running across eight consecutive days. It broadly follows the format of the adult show, with three music industry heavyweights and of course, Emma Wills hosting. Will.i.am is the only judge to make it over from the adult show. He is supported by Pixie Lott, you
might remember her from Strictly and Danny Jones. I had to Google Danny. He was in a Boy Band, McFly, apparently. You have to admire the courage the kids have to be able to sing on national TV. The Voice Kids, ITV, continues Thursday-Saturday this week. ITV treated us to the opening episode of series three of Unforgotten on Sunday night. Now, I’ve friends who are ex-police officers, hola Jimmy and Keith, but brilliant as they are, I’m not sure even they could pull together a six-part mystery, of a Sunday night, with only a piece of hip bone to start their investigations. Sanjeev Bhaskar and Nicola Walker star as detectives Sunny and Cassie who test the friendship of, to be honest, a random group of people who seem to be in the frame for the crime. This is solid Sunday night viewing though and you can keep up with what is happening on ITV, Sunday at 10pm. Happy Viewing. GENUINE AFFECTION: Angelique Kerber and Serena Williams.

What do you need from your insurer? EU INSURANCE DIRECT has been on the coast for over 12 years and they have seen many changes over that time. Car and home insurance prices have reduced over the years, which is very strange considering that premium prices in the UK appear to have rocketed. There is huge competition for insurance for expats who live in Spain, prices appear to be cheaper for expats than they do for Spanish nationals and the premium war with all companies is strong. However it isn’t always the cheapest price that is the best. Most clients want a suitable level of cover, documents in their own language, access to a simple, straightforward claims service and a person who speaks their language at the other end of the phone. EU Insurance Direct offers these important benefits. The EU Insurance Direct office is based in Elviria and office hours are from Monday to Friday 9.30am to 5.30pm, except on Friday when they close at 4pm. Wendy Codd who owns the company has been in insurance since she left school at 17. She worked at the Prudential Insurance company for 15 years, from there she went on to work at Allied Dunbar, Rothschilds in Mayfair and then to various brokerages in north London.
EU INSURANCE DIRECT: For all your insurance needs. Asked what makes her company special, she says that she offers: • A personal service with a wealth of knowledge. • Friendly impartial advice on all aspects of insurance. • Most competitive quotes on the coast.
• Best cover with many different options to suit all circumstances. • All insurances under one roof. • English-speaking helplines. Whether you are new to Spain or looking to obtain quotes when your renewal comes up, why not give EU Insurance Direct a call? You may be
pleasantly surprised at their prices and knowledge of what you need. Wendy says that many clients have no clue about who they are insured with, how much they are insured for or even when their renewal is due. Some are even not insured with the correct vehicle and many companies have their dates of birth wrong. It is so important to check your insurance documents. With summer rentals looming and many expats returning to the UK during the hottest periods in Spain - and property being left unoccupied for longer periods of time - make sure your home insurance is up to date and correct. If you have an ITV coming up, make sure you have your documents for the car as you will need them, this is a new law in Spain ... no documents, no ITV. They will not accept a copy on your phone!! For all your insurances - general (home, car, bike, etc), personal, health, life, savings or holiday insurance, pet liability and medical - EU Insurance offers it all. For a no obligation quote call Wendy or Ashley on 952 830 843/951 080 118 or Mob 635 592 610. www.euinsurancedirect.com info@euinsurancedirect.com.

TECH FOR THE TIMID I’M showing my age, but a catchphrase in the classic Goon Show was often: ‘Have a gorilla,’ and its stock response, ‘No thanks, I’ve just put one out.’ These days we carry a gorilla in our pockets - at least if we have a reasonably new smartphone. Gorilla Glass is what’s often on the front, supposedly tougher than the bourgeois stuff and designed to resist anything from the average drop (yeah, dream on) to the steady build-up of fingerprint residue or coin and key scratches. Sadly, as we spot that first heart-wrenching gouge, it doesn’t. A gung-ho friend insists he buys gadgets to use them. Given that he makes a more honest living than I do, producing physical stuff where I just describe it, after a month of unforgiving use his new phones look like they came straight off a Bangalore e-waste dump. Like choosing to coddle or not coddle your phone with a fancy genuine imitation leather case, cosseting your Gorilla Glass with a screen protector is a personal preference. That gives rise to one of the great existen-
19 - 25 July 2018
Gorilla in our pockets A touch of glass or plastic fantastic, asks Terence Kennedy
OOPS: ‘Scream’ protector needed! tial questions of our time: glass or plastic? Plastic screen-protector films are refreshingly cheap, last longer than their glass equivalents, and will actually give the device a tiny bit extra impact resistance. And they’re reusable. On the downside they may give
your finger a slightly rougher ‘slide’ on the screen because they’re not as smooth. You need to clean them more often and longer than their glass counterparts. The deal-breaker for me: if anyone insists they have a foolproof way of putting one on which won’t leave
Hammering it home Mike Senker In my opinion Views of a Grumpy Old Man DO any of you watch a BBC programme called Homes Under the Hammer? I do, and it amazes me how they buy a property for usually silly money and most people have never bought an investment property before. How it works is the presenters show the viewers some dump that needs a total refurb then they show you the punter buying it at an auction. They go to the house together and you get told that they are going to put in a new bathroom, new kitchen, rewire, put in new heating, rip a lean-to out and replaster basically everything. ‘What’s your budget and time frame?’ they are asked and this is what flabbergasts me. ‘Yeah, I’ve got a six grand budget and I’ll do it in a month.’ WHAT? HOW? I don’t understand how they do it. They buy the house for say 50 grand. They go back a month later and BOOM the place now looks like a palace. Then they’re asked, ‘Did you stick to your budget?’... ‘Well no, I spent an extra three quid because we needed a new roof.’ I’m being sarcastic now! Then they get the estate agent back and get a new valuation. Now the house is worth 90 grand and the
rental income will give them 8 per cent. Simple isn’t it? Well let me tell you it isn’t that simple. I wish they would show you the horror stories too. The ones where the punters get it all wrong like what happens in real life. Because I know that it isn’t that easy. Sure if you are a builder and you can do stuff yourself it’s OK but once you get tradesmen in it can be a nightmare. I’m going to suggest to the Beeb a show called ‘Horror Houses Under The Hammer (The Nightmare Continues)’ where they buy the gaff, get ripped off by the builder and can’t sell it. They do their brains and have it repossessed by the building society. You know, just like real life. There’s always one isn’t there? You know the one that tells you, ‘tomatoes are actually a fruit not a vegetable.’ Err yeah, I know that! smart a**e ‘And so are cucumbers, bell peppers and avocados plus a few others. Did you know strawberries and raspberries aren’t berries?’ OK stop now mate, you are getting on my nerves. But still they carry on. ‘Mountain goats aren’t really goats and killer whales never kill much at all and definitely not humans. White rhinos aren’t white at all, not even remotely white.’ I walk away when he gets on to Sperm whales! mikesenker@gmail.com
bubbles, they’re probably lying. Tempered-glass protectors are (much) more expensive than those cheap-as-chips plastic films, they look great, they’re slightly thicker, they’re unlikely to affect the screen’s clarity and your finger gets a smoother ride. They are also slower to accumulate fingerprints. Most boast so-called 9H hardness, with their adspeak claiming only a diamond will scratch them. Believe that and I have a bridge to sell you. They will indeed resist minor scratching, but on the downside if you drop the phone they are prone to cracking. As on a car’s windscreen, a crack will often spread inexorably. And once a glass protector is on your phone you’re unlikely to get it off without snapping it. The bottom line: plastic lasts longer, glass looks better. Or you could just adopt my manual-labouring friend’s cavalier attitude summed up in that Cat Stevens song from the 60’s: The First Cut is the Deepest. After that, who cares?
EWN 71
Screen test SADLY, if you have one of the growing number of curved-edge smartphone screens, few screen protectors can cope with the curvature. You’re generally left with bare edges which may lift slightly or collect fluff over time. Like the screens themselves, glass protectors come as either tempered, or Gorilla which is also tempered but has been chemically treated to make it stronger. Every decent screen protector has an ‘oleophobic coating’ for fingerprint resistance, sprayed on (for the cheapies), or applied statically. But here’s the kicker: neither coating lasts more than a few months at best. Then again, if you believe some pundits, neither will the coating on your actual smartphone screen. If that bothers you, buy a touchscreen stylus and never put digit to screen again.

Tourist tax will alienate many visitors MY wife and I have just returned from a holiday in Mallorca (first went to Mallorca in 1999 and every year since apart from a three-year gap). Before anything else at the hotel we were asked to pay the tourist tax which had doubled from last year, so having paid nearly €80 without any benefit to us at all and without any previous information as to what the Tourist Tax was likely to be, it set us thinking. Where are the monies? How much has accumulated since the tourist tax was instigated? What are the monies being used for? The pavements in Palma Nova are in a terrible state, you cannot walk for more than 25 metres and I am being generous here, before you meet cracked paving, misaligned paving, crumbling concrete, raised iron rings around the trees, depressed areas of pavement. We do not own any property in Mallorca, but I am quite sure that the rental ban on apartments will be a devastating blow to the economy, several friends of ours have sold up and come back to England.
HAVE YOUR SAY
People of Mallorca unite and vote for a mayor and president who are not blind to the devastating effect that this tourist tax and rental ban will do to the Mallorcan economy. My wife and I will not be returning to Mallorca in this present situation. Peter Higgins, Pontefract, West Yorkshire
Why can’t councils control noise?
Building consents
WHEN is Calpe Council going to protect the residents of the town from the noise of private building work at all hours of the day? We have endured three months of non-stop extremely high pitched continual noise from angle grinders and electric drills. This is on top of constant banging from hammers and bolsters and the grinding of a cement mixer all day. This starts from the bawling of work men at each other when they first arrive at eight o’clock in the morning and commence work with the tools and continue until they depart at 6.30pm in the evening. This goes on five days a week, week after week. There is totally no consideration from this non-resident in what is a normally peaceful residential area. Appeals to moderate the inconvenience are met with a refusal to comply. The noise is such during this time
All letters by email or post should carry the writer’s address, NIE and contact number though only the name and town will be published.

IRRITATING: The constant building noise. that you cannot hear the radio, TV, or concentrate to use a computer. Surely Calpe Council can provide regulation of the hours in which this type of activity can be conducted and offer its residents some relief from this unacceptable behaviour. Peter Gallagher, Calpe

Ryanair pilots announce another 24-hour strike this week
Censorship, plain and simple. Those who accuse the ‘Nazis’ of book burning do so in far greater numbers. Thousands of book titles openly sold in the latter decades of the 20th century have been quietly moved.

SEVERAL months ago a friend in the UK wrote to ask me if it was true that the chiringuitos at Punta Prima beach had been closed down, apparently over licensing problems. I replied that it did appear to be the case, according to press reports. However, at the time I thought it was rather strange and was possibly just an excuse for something else. I recalled that a builder had fairly recently tried for planning permission along that stretch of coastline and the request had been turned down partly due to the fact that there are Civil War bunkers there and also that the land was not considered suitable for building on. The next thing that we hear is that the chiringuitos are illegal, etc, etc and have got to close whilst the matter is resolved. Many people thought I was being cynical and that the chiringuitos would soon reopen. Well we all know how that situation has been handled! Now I have seen an article in the press saying that a builder has offered to refurbish the bunkers and maintain them which is all very nice of them. Oh, and he is also seemingly going to be allowed to now build two skyscrapers along that bit of coast. No mention of course about the reopening of the chiringuitos. Barry Weston Playa Flamenca
Paloma Park IN response to Joe and Janet Calton, I live near Paloma Park and during and after the San Juan Feria held close by, plus the recent strong westerly winds has created this unfortunate situation with plastic bags being blown into the lake. I can assure them that Benalmadena Council gardeners keep the park welltended and a pleasure to visit. Brian Johnston, Benalmadena Costa

YOUR STARS FOR NEXT 7 DAYS AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) You are in a romantic mood but something is missing from the picture. Its not that you’re feeling the need to have more than one string to your bow, it is more that you are tired of using the same old arrows. So, what is out there to fire your imagination? Something really new will not miss the mark with you.
PISCES (February 20 - March 20) This is a brilliant week for money and business. Mars is influencing you to be more upfront and practical in your approach. You may feel changes coming on that you would rather deny. Burying your head in the sand is not an option. Take the bull by the horns and you could be surprised at your success.
TINKERBELL EFFECT: Named after the fairy in Peter Pan.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20)
DID YOU KNOW? The Tinkerbell effect is an expression which describes things that are thought to exist only because people believe in them, like taking a placebo pill and feeling better because you think you have taken real medicine. It is named after Tinker Bell, the fairy in Peter Pan, who is revived from near death by the belief of the audience. Another form is the Reverse Tinkerbell effect, where the more you believe in something the more likely it is to vanish. For example, as more people believe that driving is safe, more people will drive carelessly, in turn making driving less safe.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) There is much to be tackled this week, but you are wary of making full-on decisions. Taking things one step at a time is the best policy because it gives you space to consider the options. There is a restlessness about you that is hard to pinpoint. Perhaps you are feeling positive but have to hold fire because of others. This is frustrating, but try to relax.

Trivia from around the world ***Cuba is the only Caribbean island with a railway, although old trains and fuel shortages can set travellers up for long delays. ***Alaska is the largest state in the United States as well as being the most northern, eastern, and western state. ***The Marshall Islands which are in the Pacific Ocean are the most endangered island nation and have the highest risk of flooding due to climate change. ***The most overweight population in the world is in Nauru with over 95 per cent of its population overweight, even though it doesn’t have a McDonald’s… ***Prince Phillip, husband to Queen Elizabeth, is worshipped by the villagers of Yaohnanen on Tanna Island in Vanuatu. Followers believe the Duke descended from one of their spirit ancestors and that he will visit them and even take up residence amongst them. ***Many of the roads in Guam are made of a coral/oil mixture, as the island doesn’t have a supply of natural sand. During wet weather the oil tends to float to the surface of the roads making them dangerous. Therefore the speed limit throughout the island is just 35mph.

Energy levels go up and down and you seek to ration yours by not going all-out physically. It is still possible to be quite dynamic while planning. Indeed, your clear vision impresses a colleague. If you are due for promotion then some good news is likely. Blow your own trumpet rather than wait for others to do it for you.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) The changes affecting you for the past few weeks continue but you are now getting better at managing their direction.
Someone wanting you to take a logical action should not be allowed to push you forward. When to act will be clear to you.
LEO (July 24 - August 23) Someone who has been unhelpful in the past suddenly steps forward. Could you have been wrong about them? Probably not. Keep a clear mind when with them. Saturn influences you to be more organised before a bout of indecision strikes.
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) The influence of Venus and Jupiter brings you the influence and status that you deserve. It's not that you haven't worked towards it but now you start to see the benefits. There is an urge to improve your appearance and surroundings to fit in with the 'new you'.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) During the past few weeks you may have gained a different perspective on life. Your need for a close attachment and harmony in your life should not be underestimated or denied in the name of practicality.
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) To be truly happy you need to build on your partnerships. Keep these in balance and everything else will fall into place. Life has taught you some rather harsh lessons recently. The upshot of that is you now feel more in control and more secure.
SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) There is an all-consuming need to see some reward for all your efforts. There will be those who will tell you that you need to push harder for success. Perhaps you need to be with more like-minded people. Certainly being with the wrong colleagues can bring your spirits down.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) When needed you are sure to be positive this week. On a project, ‘striking while the iron is hot’ springs to mind. There is much fun to hand but it must be 'work first' at the moment. Some opportunities do not come twice and you need to be aware of them when they present themselves.

BIRTHDAYS
WHEN an 11-year-old boy is found murdered in a town park, eyewitnesses point to the town’s popular Little League coach, Terry Maitland, a well-loved family man, as the culprit. DNA evidence and fingerprints confirm this. Horrified by the brutal killing, Detective Ralph Anderson, whose own son was once coached by Maitland, orders the suspect to be arrested in a public spectacle. But Maitland has an alibi, as it is proved he was out of town that day. As Anderson and the District Attorney trace the clues, the investigation goes from Ohio to Texas. And as horrifying answers begin to emerge, so King’s propulsive story of almost unbearable suspense kicks into high gear. Terry Maitland seems a nice guy but there is one hard fact: a man cannot be in two places at the same time. Can he?

Just the veganning?
A MOTHER is said to be furious that her son got so badly burned after using Asda’s factor 50 sun cream. N i c o l a H a d l e y, 4 7 , f ro m We s t B ro m w i c h bought Asda’s factor 50 sunscreen to use during the heatwave in England. However, even after applying the cream regularly, her 10-year-old son Aaron Boyes was left ‘in tears.’ Nicola said: “My son is not the first child this has happened to, but he should be the last. I put the sun cream on him before school and topped it up when he came home.” She continued, “I do not expect my son to be crying in pain because of a product I should be able to trust.” T h e c o m p a n y h a s re c e i v e d n u m e ro u s c o m plaints about the sun lotion, with Karen Trett from Milton Keynes, claiming her daughters were burnt on holiday in Mallorca having used the same factor 50 sunscreen. A spokesman from Asda has said its product complies with all the industry standards. UNSTOPPABLE RISE: Veganism is on the up.
SUPERFOODS and the vegan trend are dominating the latest food fads in magazines and trendy new restaurants, but are we willing to sustain such a limited diet in the future without the need for bacon butties or cheeseburgers? The fashionable plant-based diet, proven to result in younger looking skin, boost energy lev-
els and reduce the risks of certain life-threatening diseases like diabetes and cancer is slowly pushing aside meatbased foods in the hope of a healthier lifestyle and less obesity - but is it sustainable in this modern age? Experts agree that a truly vegan lifestyle, although difficult to plan out and maintain can re-
duce weight but they also look at the potential downfall of going totally plant-based. Calcium, omega-3, fatty acids and Vitamin B12 are all key nutrients that a vegan diet can lack. Over a length of time, these key elements to keep the body strong can result in loss of bone and muscle mass and inefficient running of the nervous system. Vitamins and supplements can only be taken in small doses otherwise they can cause toxicity in the body. The bottom line, say experts is to avoid fad diets that are promoted on the internet, try to balance out the pros and cons of becoming a vegan, but most importantly stick to a healthy regime that gives your body good healthy food.

Tennis Elbow to inject or not to inject? TENNIS ELBOW aka epicondylitis or epicondylagia is when the tendons (stringy bits that attach muscles to bones) on the outside of the elbow, become damaged and irritated, usually caused by overuse. This translates to pain on the outside of the elbow because you have been doing a particular action repeatedly, common in tennis players but also seen in plasterers, painters, and anyone who’s job or hobby includes a repetitive action (no smirking at the back!). Tennis Elbow is a complicated condition, often misdiagnosed and therefore mistreated, it isn’t uncommon to hear of patients having had treatment for many months without making significant progress TOP TIP - if it isn’t improving within four to six weeks, get a second opinion! Often the first treatment
By Estelle Mitchell www.thebodyworksclinic.com someone will receive when they go to the Doctor is a steroid injection to help with the pain. NOTE - this is pain relief NOT treatment. Treatment fixes the problem, pain relief just makes you more comfortable with the problem. This latest study comparing physiotherapy, cortical steroid injections and ‘wait and see’ shows some interesting results: Six months after injury the steroid injections come out better - this is about how long the pain relief effects last so they should do better as these patients are pain free (not treated, just not in pain!).
However, these patients had the highest recurrence rates. Again, not a surprise - the pain relief wore off so they went back for more, original problem NOT treated. Unsurprisingly (in my, obviously completely biased opinion!) physiotherapy had the best outcomes - patients needed less medication, needed less Doctor time and had almost no recurrence. Why? Because the actual problem was treated not just covered up with pain relief. Pain relief is an amazing thing - it allows us to carry on and work around problems. But it is NOT a treatment. Repeated research has shown that while the initial pain relief can be significant, prolonged and repeated use of steroid injections starts to break down the tendons within the joint, like a fraying rope. Which inevitably leads to more pain and more problems.

Readers turning to crime (ERR, crime novels!)
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
A TREND unforeseen, even by hard-bitten crime fiction detectives, crime novels have beaten general fiction for the first time since book charts were compiled. Anxious about volatility in the real world, readers now seek reassurance in stories where baddies get their just desserts. Thriller writer David Baldacci said readers turned to his crime novels to see the good guys win: “When times are stressful and it looks like the bad is winning out over the good, along comes the genre of crime novels to put the balance back in life. People inherently don’t like folks who do bad to get away with it. In real life they do all the time, because of a variety of factors. But in novels, evil’s punished, and the good guys mostly win, after solving the puzzle.” The Girl in the Woods, the latest in my own psychological crime thriller series featuring investigative journalist Alice Myers, traces the increasing trauma of the Walker family who fall apart when their 17-year-old daughter, Kezia, fails to return home from a night out. As the hours pass and the police investigation builds, this just-published novel puts every parent’s worst nightmare scenario under the microscope.
Deadly secrets THE latest in the psychological crime thriller series featuring investigative journalist Alice Myers, The Girl in the Woods depicts the unimaginable pressures faced by the Walker family when their 17-year-old daughter goes missing after a night out. As the hours pass and the police inquiry builds, it explores every parent’s worst nightmare. A teenager vanishes in woodland. Parents torn apart by secrets, guilt and jealousy. Barbara Forster, the complex DI heading the enquiry, faces a race against time, following a treacherous path that leads all the way to a dark and explosive climax. An action-packed thriller on several levels, the stories unfold, adding an unexpected triple twist at the end. Tense and gripping throughout, The Girl in the Woods is highly recommended.
Focusing on the disappearance of an apparently captivating teenager, what follows is part whodunit, part police-procedural and part examination of the effects of the pressures on her parents, friends and acquaintances. When the police are called in, it soon becomes apparent she had secrets of her own and, as the investigation continues, suspicion shifts from one parent, friend and acquaintance to another. Inevitably tension rises and tempers fray as Kezia’s parents have different ideas how to proceed. Her father becomes obsessed with pursuing his own investigation while her mother bottles up her emotions, trying to keep her family together and marriage intact. The very real anguish of a family torn apart by secrets, guilt and jealousy, as the gradually building nightmare gathers steam, keeps you guessing right up to the explosive triple-twist climax.

David Searl Spain’s tax on You and the Law capital assets, in Spain the so-called ‘wealth tax’ (Impuesto sobre el Patrimonio) was passed into law in 1977 by the new government of Spain after Franco died. Spaniards and residents had exemptions on the value of their principal residence and on the first portion of any other assets. Non-residents however had no exemptions and had to pay from the first peseta of valuation. The tax is quite low, starting at .002, or two-10ths of 1 per cent. If your flat was worth €100,000, your annual wealth tax would be €200. From 2008 to 2010, the government passed tax relief of 100 per cent, so no one had to pay. In 2011 the tax relief was cancelled. Since 2016, non-resident property owners share in the resident exemption on the first €700,000 of value, so you should not be paying it any more.

A truly memorable Marbella Moment Marbella Moments by Nicole King WHILST recording the last part of this week’s Marbella Now TV show at the new Petit Sea Grill tapas lounge in the Hotel Puente Romano my wonderful Finnish intern Jere Johansson passed me my phone whilst saying “Not that I’m looking, but I think you have drama going on.” I took the phone and saw the message visible on the locked screen. It was from my daughter ‘mum, my waters broke.’ True drama! We hadn’t quite finished recording for the day so whilst excitedly grabbing my things I randomly appointed Marisa Moreno, the Danish Consul to Andalucia, (also a guest on the show in her quality as lawyer to answer your legal questions) to take over for me and I was off. As it turned out whilst running to the car and calling my daughter there was plenty of time to get to the hospital and so, upon her insistence, I returned to the Petit Sea Grill to find
Proud parents James and Ashley present baby Lake Maisie King-Wheeler. Puente Romano boss Sergio Sanchez quite happily finishing his explanation of the sushi preparation and everyone just ‘getting on with it.’ Poetry in motion and such a display of #BetterTogether! We then sat down to lunch with the delicious dishes prepared for us at the table and an exotic selection of ‘virgin’ cocktails (who
needs alcohol when high on excitement?). Looking back I have to say I’m really glad I had gone back as my granddaughter didn’t come into the world until 8.02pm the following day and food was the last thing on my mind until I knew that both my babies were safe.
The wait and fear of the unknown were exhausting. How would my little girl get through this? Infinite worries ran through my mind even though I had only heard good things about giving birth in the Costa del Sol hospital; this was so out of my control! My baby was about to go through a major ‘something’ and for the first
time I wasn’t even going to be there with her. Joy replaced nerves the moment my beautiful baby girl gave birth to her very own beautiful baby girl on Wednesday July 11 and it hadn’t been nearly as bad as she, or I, had feared. Once she decided to have the epidural her face went from the look of a terrified deer to a happy youngster coming home after a party: excited but tired. Things continued to go smoothly for the 11 hours of labour and the medical staff was not only attentive throughout, but helpful and kind. I can only be forever grateful. I have to say the baby’s daddy also did an amazing job and for that I’m also proud and grateful and as for my daughter, well, equally as amazing as always and undoubtedly the best mum in the world! Having my own children was and has been the best thing that ever happened to me and Marbella has always been my happy place with so many happy memories that I love to relive them as I go about my day to day. The birth of my granddaughter however has undoubtedly surpassed them all and turned this memory into the very best Marbella Moment ever!

Flavoursome lamb
by Andrew Harding I THOUGHT I would talk about vitamins and minerals over the next few weeks, why we need them and what they actually do. There are 13 vitamins that are essential to maintain health in humans: Vitamins A, C, D, E, K and the B vitamins: Thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyroxidine (B6), biotin (B7), folate (B9) and cobalamin (B12). The four fat-soluble vitamins-A, D, E, and K-are stored in the body’s fatty tissues, which is why some fat in the diet is necessary. Vitamin A, also known as retinol, has several important functions. These include ensuring the immune system works properly, helping vision in dim light and keeping skin and the lining of some parts of the body, such as the nose, healthy. Foods that contain vitamin A include dairy products, eggs, oily fish, liver and liver pate. The body can synthesise Vitamin A from a compound called beta-carotene which is found in non-fatty foods such as yellow, red and green (leafy) vegetables, such as spinach, carrots, sweet potatoes and red peppers and yellow fruit, such as mango, papaya and apricots. Vitamin A is toxic in large quantities and pregnant women should avoid pate due to

of a number of staff and so apart from promoting the town, it had also helped to get locals into work. “We do not allow an event in the city that does not have a positive impact on the job situation in Fuengirola,” he said. “That is one of the basic pillars in our decision making. Although as a council we do not have competencies in
terms of employment that does not mean we can’t give job seekers a chance with this event,” he added.

Advertising Feature THOSE who enjoy wine know that some of the finest Spanish wines come from the Rioja region. History tells us that in the Middle Ages, Mediterranean wine culture was closely linked to the monastic life and their major promoters were the monks. The Rioja area is no exception and there is a great deal of local pride in the fact that Gonzalo de Berceo, the first poet who wrote in the Romance language, mentioned wine in the verses he wrote from his retreat in the Suso Monastery in San Millán de la Cogolla. The first document to make reference to protecting and ensuring the quality of Rioja wines dates from 1650, but even earlier, in 1102, King Sancho of Navarra legally recognised the quality and importance of these prestigious wines. The Royal Economic Society Rioja Grower was created in 1787 with the aim of promoting the cultivation of vines, wine production and trade development.
Learn about Rioja
The exquisite aroma and taste of Rioja wine. By the early 20th century, in 1902, a Royal Decree was issued which defined the ‘origin’ for application to the wines of Rioja. Then 1926 saw the creation of the Control Board whose mission was to identify the area of Rioja, control the issuance of the ‘seal
of guarantee’ and re c omme nd w he n appropriate, legal action be ta ke n a ga ins t infringers and counterfeiters of the name ‘Rioja.’ It wasn’t however until 1945 that the agency was given a legal
status. Finally, the Control Board was constituted in 1953, and thus began to lay the foundations for a modern and efficient performance by the growers. Highly important in the evolution which led to the present Rioja wine is the approval in 1970 of the Rules of the Appellation of Origin and its Regulatory Board. In the same year the agency acquired a well-defined structure and clear functions described as ‘The defence of the Denomination of Origin, im-
plementation, monitoring and promoting the quality of the wines covered were mandated, first, the Control Board.’ After several amendments to the Regulation Governing the Control Board, which have been adapted to the needs raised in recent years, quality control systems have been perfected and there has been an enhancement of the promotion of the brand. Following a long process in which the Denomination of Origin ‘Rioja’ always concentrated on the quality and control at source, this effort received recognition as on April 3, 1991 a Ministerial Order granted the status of Qualified Denomination of Origin to ‘Rioja’ which was the first and only in Spain to receive this recognition.

Sting and Shaggy IF you want to see a pair of true legends on stage there might just be a few tickets left for the Sting and Shaggy concert at Starlite tonight (Thursday). Although the Police did incorporate an element of reggae sound into many of their numbers, this may at first sight seem to be an unusual cooperation but as can be heard on their album 44/876, musically it actually works quite well. All 12 numbers from the album were co-written by the pair and these will form the basis of their concert which starts at 10.30pm, although doors open at 8.30pm tonight. Former teacher and now multi-millionaire Gordon Sumner (Sting) must look back to his early days (with some humour) with the Police who used to play old blues and rock in bars around the UK before becoming international stars. Orville Burrell (Shaggy) was born in Jamaica but took a detour into the American Army before deciding to leave (after being reduced in rank twice) to follow his career as a singer and his first big hit was Oh Carolina in 1993. Now both are international stars in their own right and promise a great performance, if you can get tickets in time.

Palm honey is worth a gold medal LETTERS FROM CANARIES By Barbara Belt barbarabelt@gmail.com SINCE my last missive, we’ve sung, dressed up, danced traditional dances, eaten and drank too much, and generally enjoyed Canaries Day, as we do every May 30. It’s a celebration of all things Canarian, marking the Canary Island parliament’s first session, which was on May 30, 1983, since which time the islands have constituted one of Spain’s autonomous regions. The then Provisional Parliament had to choose a date for Dia de Canarias which: ‘Has a historical, but at the same time contemporary, significance, with a future focus (!).’ This, understandably, created lots of argument and near fracas for the fledgling parliament. Commemorating the date of the first Canarian Parliament then saved the day. Politicians like a bit of immortality. Dia de Canarias has become an institution, featuring national dress that’s rocketed in popularity over the last 35 years, with each island boasting its own. There are romerias, fiestas, sporting events, concerts, school parties as well as performances of Canarian legends and history. To mark the date, worthy Canarians are award-
GUARAPEROS: The palm sap tradition lives on.
INSTITUTION: Canaries Day celebrations. ed the Canarian Gold Medal. The list of winners is long and dignified, but let’s skip to the ‘Los Guaraperos de La Gomera, for keeping alive a 500-year-old tradition’ award. These guaraperos (palm sap tappers) climb tall, swaying palms to work with sharp tools at the top. It’s risky. The award, sadly, comes too late for father-of-three Jesus, a leading guarapero who was found dead under a palm tree in March. “On the islands, the indigenous population made honey from palm trees. This liquid looks like cloudy lemon water and has a very agreeable flavour. When concentrated by boiling, it pro-
duces a syrup known as miel de palma (palm honey) used in the confection of desserts and sweets,” said A J Benitez in Historia de las Islas Canarias. When the Spanish arrived in the 15th century, the native populations of all seven islands were tapping guarapo and drinking it, or boiling it down to make palm honey, and had done so for millennia. Since then, the practice has disappeared everywhere but La Gomera. The guarapero climbs to the top to clean off greenery and expose the crown. He uses a chisel to gradually form a hollow there, inserting a hori-
zontal length of cane to drain the guarapo off into a bucket suspended below. Early next morning, it’s collected and filtered. Once a palm’s been tapped, the delicate, exposed area needs protecting from sunlight. New fronds quickly sprout. The palm mustn’t be tapped again for three or four years. The guarapero’s work is sustainable. Palms aren’t harmed. Today, guarapo is poured into stainless steel cauldrons, slowly cooked for several hours and gradually becomes thicker, darker and sweeter. When a thin, continuous string of boiled guarapo falls from a spoon, it’s miel de palma and is left to cool before bottling for sale. Try some if you can get it. It’s delicious! Congratulations to all Canarian Gold Medal winners, especially Los Guaraperos de La Gomera. Rest in peace Jesus.

Vitalise your meals with minimal effort GRAEME TYRRELL MOST gardeners and chefs are aware of the importance of herbs for flavouring and spicing-up meals to give a taste that is both exotic and interesting. Herbs also give a bundle of nutrients that most vegetables do not provide. Garnishing and seasoning adds a touch of class to even simple meals but having fresh herbs is always a challenge unless you have space and time for a herb garden. It is a bother to have to find time to go to markets and find out that the not so fresh herbs wilt even more by the time they are taken home and added to the meal. The easier thing is to add dried herbs, but these are never as good as freshly picked herbs. The easiest way to have fresh herbs is to have a window or planter box as near to the kitchen as possible and grow the herbs there. A simple tray with the herbs in pots in a place with plenty of light can allow you have fresh
herbs right in your kitchen. Even if you do not have green fingers you can have the advantages of fresh herbs by buying ready-grown plants and just pick the leaves you need as they keep growing. When the plant cannot produce sufficient for your needs, or has passed its time, just buy another. The herbs in pots are generally not expensive in comparison to buying bunches of fresh picked leaves that deteriorate so quickly after you buy them. It is better in general to buy the growing plant and use it fresh to add vitality to the meal. If you have used fresh herbs direct from plants you will know the difference. I prefer to harvest herbs just when they are to be added to a meal so having them growing nearby is important. If you have time, space and interest you can grow many from seed in a very small area and save yourself the need to buy the plants. There is a a lot of satisfaction in growing your own if you can. The best herbs to grow are of course the ones that you would
use the most and that will grow in small containers. Some herbs, such as lemongrass, are too big for small containers but are fine for large containers. The most suitable herbs for small containers in a Mediter-
ranean zone include basil, chives, thyme, lemon balm, oregano, parsley, various mints, coriander (Cilantro), rosemary, sage, tarragon, stevia, camomile, dill, fennel, lemon verbena and marjoram.
If you buy the plants, the pot they come in is often sufficient to last a couple of months. If still growing strong after this time, it is a good idea to repot them into a larger container to give them space to grow.

Nick Horne The Rich Pick Freelance correspondent, London, England SOTHEBY’S the auction house has just sold my childhood memory. Actually they have not, they have however auctioned a series of inspired drawings by the illustrator EH Shepard at their recent sale, the ‘English Literature, History, Science, Children’s books and illustrations.’ Sketches drawn for AA Milne’s story of the Hundred Acre Wood ‘The House at Pooh Corner.’ The history of Winnie the Pooh and his friends, Eeyore, Piglet, Roo and Tigger. My imagination was fired at once by the Map of the Hundred Acre Wood, happy memories of childhood spent in imagination walking through the wood. Then in the late 1960’s the Disney movie arrived ‘Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree.’ The map was animated and brought to life by Disney’s artists so as to magically transport us to the wood itself. I was much older by then but affection is difficult to leave behind. Someone out there agrees with me! He or she has bought arguably the most famous map in English literature for the princely sum of £430,000. Unseen by the public in the original for at least 50 years this 1926 sketch was expected to fetch £100,000 to £150,000, however the buyer was clearly determined. A further four sketches by EH Shepard were also auctioned, among them the illustration showing Christopher Robin and Pooh walking hand in hand ‘to an enchanted place on the very

An emotional farewell which is closed by AA Milne with, ‘whereever they go, and whatever happens to them on the way in that enchanted place at the top of the Forest, a little boy and his
bear will always be playing.’ Two of the sketches illustrated that most famous of games, Poohsticks at Poohsticks Bridge, one comic image that of Eeyore floating lugubriously by from beneath the Bridge.

The final sketch of the five auctioned may be a description of friendships; it depicts Christopher Robin, Piglet and Pooh leaning over Poohsticks bridge. The five original illustrations were sold for £917,500 (€1,038,260).

How much does your fat pet weigh? David THE Dogman columnists@ewnmediagroup.com
OBESITY is not just a problem in people; pets are packing on the pounds too! A recent report from the National Academy of Science shows that one in four pets is overweight or obese. This problem can no longer be ignored! How much does a fat pet weigh? Putting your pet on the scale is not the best way to evaluate if the pet is overweight. There is a tremendous amount of individual variation in an animal’s ideal weight. It is better to look at the appearance of each animal rather than at a weight that this breed or type of animal ‘should’ be. Looking at the animal’s body condition is the best way to judge where your pet falls on the obesity spectrum. You should be able to feel your pet’s ribs easily without pressing, but you should not be able to see the ribs through the coat. There should be a ‘tuck in’ in the abdominal area. Your pet’s torso, viewed from above, should resemble an hour glass. You can conduct these quick checks, but since it’s hard for owners to be objective, it’s best to seek your vet’s advice.
Overweight An overweight pet is not a healthy pet. Owners need to recognise they are putting their pet’s health at risk by allowing that extra weight. Obesity commonly leads to diabetes, heart problems and arthritis. An overweight pet does not age well. Overweight pets are more prone to hip dysplasia, back and joint pain, and endocrine diseases. Extra weight also decreases a veterinarian’s ability to manage these conditions both medically and surgically. Healthy weight Keeping Fluffy at a healthy weight can add years to her life. The answer is the same for pets as well as people: too many calories and not enough exercise. The most common reason for overfeeding is that owners want to show their pet they care and give treats. One extra treat can turn into five and then 10. Be aware how much you are feeding your pets.

rence. You can find us at Lauro Golf Equestrian Centre, Alqueria, Alhaurin de la Torre. Tel. 608 258 950 info@sepeonline.net www.sepeonline.net (93321) 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.

Underground, overground ... Fiesta ready for a challenge THE performance prowess of the new Ford Fiesta ST is demonstrated by a new film that features an amazing driving location - 400 metres below ground in one of Europe’s largest salt mines. Shot at a secret location with World Rally Championship driver Elfyn Evans at the wheel, the Fiesta ST is seen slipping, sliding and jumping in the dirt. The sound of the 200PS 1.5-litre EcoBoost en-
gine is amplified by its surroundings as it tackles a high-speed drop through the narrow, entrance tunnel. “The salt is actually like fine gravel to drive on, quite slippery to be honest, especially on road tyres,” said Evans. “You expect it to be claustrophobic but actually it’s quite the opposite, a great place to really enjoy the new Fiesta ST.” A series of stern tests have taken place in some of the most stunning environments across the continent - from the Arctic Circle in Norway, to the sunny climes of Mallorca. Until now, all the locations have been above ground. Ford chose the secret salt mine location for a new TV advert that sees the car put through its paces within the mine’s 60-kilometre network of tunnels, where temperatures are a constant 16ºC and
safety precautions required that a skeleton crew was used for the three-day shoot amid strict safety precautions. “The drama of the tunnels and the chance to show off Fiesta ST’s ability on a different type of surface were a big part of choosing this unique location,” said Leo Roeks, Ford Performance director. “It wasn’t a typical race track, it was somewhere we could drive this great car to its full potential.”
Robot car technology improved AN autonomous car has used artificial intelligence to improve its driving skills within 20 minutes. The team at Wayve showed how a Renault fitted with the technology used trial and error to correctly follow a lane, without the use of sensors and engineered rules as other self-driving cars work. Wayve co-Founder and chief executive Amar Shah said: “The missing piece of the selfdriving puzzle is intelligent algorithms.”
Five-star blaze A MINIVAN pulled away from a petrol station in St Louis, Missouri with the fuel hose still attached. The result was an enormous spray of petrol which ignited and turned a nearby blue Lamborghini Huracan’s hotrunning V10 engine into a fireball.

FRANCE won the Fifa World Cup for the second time after beating Croatia 42 in a thrilling final in Moscow. A Mario Mandzukic own goal from a free kick (18 mins) got France on the board, but Ivan Perisic replied 10 minutes later with a well-taken left foot strike into the corner. Croatia then felt they were on the wrong end of another controversial VAR decision, shortly before half time. Referee Nestor Pitana contentiously awarded a spot-kick for a handball by Perisic, after consulting pitch-side replays, which Griezmann calmly converted. In a high-octane second half, France drove the dagger deeper with two crisp strikes in six minutes from Paul Pogba and Kylian Mbappe, either side of the hour mark. Croatia, however, showed the spirit that got them into the final, refusing to give up

Meanwhile, England’s campaign in Russia ended with a 2-0 defeat by Belgium that meant the Three Lions finished in fourth place. Thomas Meunier put Belgium ahead after just four minutes when he slid in ahead of Danny Rose to divert Nacer Chadli’s cross past goalkeeper Jordan Pickford. England had chances to level in the second half as Toby Alderweireld cleared off the line from Eric Dier, while Harry Maguire also headed wide from a good position. Eden Hazard wrapped it up for Belgium with eight minutes left when he got the better of Phil Jones to drive past Pickford, who had just saved smartly from Meunier. In some ways it was a game neither side really wanted, but to finish the tournament in fourth place is a proud achievement for Gareth Southgate’s young side.

A 16-YEAR-OLD Ethiopian runner has been cruelly ridiculed online by social media users - including a Spanish athlete - who say she looks too old to be competing in an under 20 competition. Girmawit Gebrzihair won the bronze medal in the 5,000m race at the World Under-20 Championships held in Tampere, Finland. But Gebrzihair’s third place finish led to a backlash in social media from commenters who questioned her listed birth date of November 21, 2001. However, none of the critics have provided any evidence to prove the birth date is false. Among those who mocked the athlete online was Oscar Husilloes, a Spanish sprinter who specialises in the 200m and the 400m. The 24-year-old tweeted a picture of Gebrzihair, adding in Spanish: ‘Her children and grandchildren are in the stands to see her run in the World U20 Championships.’ However, his tweet also sparked a backlash, with some slamming the athlete for his lack of respect and defended Gebrzihair. ‘You may have doubts about their age, but you could express them with more education,’ one Twitter user said.

SOUTH AFRICAN Brandon Stone broke the Gullane course record with a final round of 60 to win the Scottish Open by four shots. Stone, 25, almost became the first player ever to score a round of 59 on a European Tour, missing a birdie putt on the 18th. “The first time I knew I had the opportunity (to score 59) was when I was walking on to the 18th green,” he said. After missing out on a piece
of history, Stone’s round is the 29th recorded 60 in a European Tour. However, he was still understandably elated with his win: “To stand here as the Scottish Open champion is really incredible,” said Stone. “The attitude was spectacular all week, my caddie obviously kept me very calm and level headed, not only today but the entire week.” Englishman Eddie Pepperell had led for much of the final
day, but had to settle for second on 16 under-par. The 27 year-old from Oxford, was due to be part of BBC Radio 5 Live’s pundit coverage of the Open Championship at Carnoustie, but his Scottish Open result means he qualifies to play in the tournament. “I was looking forward to commentating for a couple of days,” said Pepperell. “But who knows, maybe I can at the weekend,” he joked.

NINE DINING: Marquez celebrates his ninth consecutive win in Germany.
WINNING GRIN: Djokovic is back at the top of the game.
Marquez extends lead HONDA’S Marc Marquez clinched an incredible ninth consecutive German Grand Prix triumph to extend his MotoGP lead. The Spaniard has now won in the top category at Sachsenring for the past six years and three times in the smaller classes before that. Marquez took a major step towards a fourth consecutive world championship with his fifth win of the season, at what is likely to be the final MotoGP at the Sachsenring before the Nurburgring takes over. The season heads into the summer break with Marquez leading by 46 points in the rider’s
standings, with the 25-year-old leading Valentino Rossi by nearly a two-race advantage. Yet just like in Assen it was the Ducati of Jorge Lorenzo who shot out into the lead. When Lorenzo ran out wide at turn one on lap 12, Marquez elected against rushing through and waited until the end of the lap to line up his fellow Spaniard and slide past at the final corner. From there Marquez set about pulling away from the rest of the field, and despite a brief fightback from Rossi, he was able to cruise home to take the chequered flag.
Djok and awe Novak serves up Wimbledon glory NOVAK DJOKOVIC won his first Grand Slam title in more than two years by overcoming Kevin Anderson to claim his fourth Wimbledon championship. Djokovic, seeded 12th, won 6-2 6-2 7-6 (7-3) on Sunday to win a 13th Slam, his first major since the 2016 French Open. The Serb, 31, quickly took control to take the opening set in 29 minutes, and broke his South African opponent
twice more to storm the second set too. However he did not have it all his own way in the third, and had to survive five set points before dominating the tie-break to seal victory. “I had many moments of doubt, I didn’t know if I could come back to this level to compete,” said Djokovic, who also won the Wimbledon title in 2011, 2014 and 2015. “There is no better place to
make a comeback, it’s a sacred place for the world of tennis, it’s very special.” He is now in outright fourth place on the all-time list of Grand Slam men’s singles titles, moving clear of Roy Emerson and closing the gap on Roger Federer (20), Rafael Nadal (17) and Pete Sampras (14). The former world number one will move back into the top 10 when the latest rankings are released on Monday.
