By Matt Ford AT least 400 Ryanair flights to or from Spain have been cancelled as cabin crew employees strike across the country. The industrial action which began yesterday (Wednesday) ends this evening, with up to 100,000 passengers affected as staff in Portugal, Italy and Belgium also joined the revolt. At least 17 Costa del Sol flights have been axed, while demonstrators organised protests at airports in Malaga, Madrid, Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca and Lanzarote. A last-minute meeting between unions and airline officials failed to break the deadlock over working conditions with the protestors’ promotional material describing the budget carrier as a “disciplinary terror regime.”

Holiday nightmare Girlfriend launches desperate plea By Matt Ford A WOMAN from Liverpool has launched a desperate bid to get her boyfriend home after he broke his neck jumping into a Mallorca swimming pool on his birthday trip. Richard Budi, 26, is breathing through a tube in Palma’s Son Espases hospital and has no feeling from his chest to his feet in the wake of the horrific accident. Partner Simona Malarova said the couple, who are originally from Slovakia, were having “the best time of our lives” before he jumped into the pool at their Magaluf hotel. She added he did not have European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) or travel insurance, and doctors have said it will cost thousands to fly him back to the UK to receive the specialist treatment he needs.

Cleanup drive branded sexist

THE BIG PICTURE Nº 24

THE socialist PSOE opposition party has slammed a Marbella campaign urging citizens to dispose of rubbish correctly as sexist after young women in tightfitting hot pants were pictured alongside publicity. But a council official mocked the claims and said the women ‘opted for clothing that seemed most comfortable’ in the summer heat.

Beach bummer PART of Benalmadena’s popular Los Melilleros beach has been shut down by the fire brigade due to the precarious state of the former Marymar retirement home. The move comes after several council technicians were hurt by falling rubble during a recent inspection with the building in ‘a state of imminent collapse’ according to Mayor Victor Navas.

Steamy row THE Costa del Sol’s only two gay saunas - both located in Torremolinos - have been temporarily shut down over safety fears. It comes after the venues undertook unlicensed refurbishments, including the sealing off of an emergency exit by a plunge pool, with the respective owners each reporting the other to police.

Rob the builder POLICE are searching for a man who tried to hold up Torremolinos Aquapark with a fake pistol while disguised as a construction worker. The suspect was chased by three bricklayers and a delivery man as he tried to enter a side door before escaping in a car.

Jinping for joy ANDALUCIA is now the second most-popular Spanish destination with Chinese tourists, ahead of Madrid and behind only Cataluña. More than half a million visitors from the Far Eastern nation flocked to Spain last year and spent more than €796 million, with 10 per cent heading to the southern region, according to national institute Turespaña.

Holiday help CONSTRUCTION of an official complaints office for holidaymakers is underway in Marbella’s Puerto Banus, the council has announced. It will be staffed with Local and National Police officers and offer an ‘express service’ to foreign victims of crime, a city hall statement said.

BLOODTHIRSTY STREAK: Goiat is accused of slaughtering livestock.

Bear necessity A BROWN bear suspected of killing livestock in the Pyrenees mountains is set to be deported from Spain. The 200-kilo predator, named Goiat, was captured in Slovenia in 2016 and released in the Alt Pirineu Natural Park in Isil, Lleida Province, Cataluña, as part of a European Union-funded programme to reintroduce the species after it almost disappeared in the 1990’s. However, the young male has developed a bloodthirsty streak, and this April alone killed six horses, four foals and several sheep in the area. Consequently, the Catalan government has now bowed to

months of pressure from local farmers, agreeing to hatch a plan for Goiat’s ‘capture and transfer.’ The move has sparked outrage among environmentalists and green action groups, since he was introduced to combat an inbreeding problem among bears in the area, most of which are the offspring of Pyros, a male also introduced from Slovenia in 1997 which now reproduces with his own offspring’s cubs. In 1996 there were just three brown bears left in the Pyrenees, with the total now having risen to 43, and another 300 believed to survive in the mountains of Cantabria.

Hotel death probe POLICE are probing the discovery of an unidentified woman’s dead body in the wake of a Marbella hotel fire. The blaze broke out in a room occupied by a middle-aged Russian lady at the luxurious beachfront Hotel Guadalmina Spa and Golf Resort. Investigators confirmed their first line of enquiry is through a post mortem examination aimed at establishing if she was the victim. Guests and staff at the four-star re-

sort reported hearing an explosion immediately before a thick column of black smoke started pouring from a window overlooking the gardens. The 112 emergency phone line said it received several calls reporting the incident, but it was not necessary to evacuate the premises since only a single room was affected by the blast. Firefighters found the badly burned corpse under a table after the flames were extinguished.

Have-a-go trial A HAVE-A-GO hero who killed a thief on the Costa del Sol could face a 15-year jail term for reckless homicide. It comes after the 22-year-old Spaniard chased down and struggled with a man who he saw attack a cleaner while she was on her way to work in Fuengirola. The robber, 42, who was helped by his girlfriend, forced the woman to the ground and kicked her in the head before trying to flee with the

woman’s handbag but ended brawling with the accused, leading to him being punched in the face. And the blow caused a brain haemorrhage with the mugger dying in hospital two days later. The private prosecution has called for a 15-year sentence and a fine of €180,000, while the defence is battling for his acquittal. The dead man had a previous criminal record for burglary and was wanted for a few break-ins.

HOLIDAY MISERY: Passengers have been left unsure if their flights will depart and (inset) cabin crew in Mallorca.

Jet say no From Front Page The strike has sparked chaos at airports, with many travellers unsure if their flights would depart or not until just before they were due to board. But the Irish firm said in a statement: “Ryanair has added extra Customer Service staff to help reaccommodate/refund these customers over the next seven days. “Any Ryanair customers travelling to/from Belgium, Portugal or Spain on Wednesday or Thursday, who have not received an email or text SMS, should expect that their flight will operate as scheduled and should check-in to their departure airport a normal.” And the company stepped up its efforts to show that staff are

well-paid, with chief marketing officer Kenny Jacobs telling media: “Given that Ryanair cabin crew enjoy great pay-up to €40,000 per year, industry-leading rosters (14 days off each month), great sales commissions, uniform allowances and sick pay, these strikes are entirely unjustified and will achieve nothing other than to disrupt family holidays, and benefit competitor airlines in Belgium, Portugal and Spain.” Cabin crew union official Antonio Escobar hit back as he said: “The large majority of cabin crew don’t have a base salary, which means if you don’t fly you don’t get paid. “On board the same plane, for instance, a Madrid to Charleroi flight, you will find four cabin crew members doing the same

job, but none will be earning the same.” Staff say this is due to the airline’s heavy reliance on temporary working agencies, and have also called for crew to be employed under the national laws of the country they operate in rather than Ireland. Some passengers took to social media to slam Ryanair after it tweeted messages criticising the strikes. One user wrote: “Every passenger believes Ryanair looks after employees just the same as passengers... very poorly. Time for the money grabber O’Leary to retire to his €10m villa.” The latest strikes follow three walkouts by Irish pilots earlier this month, the last of which took place earlier this week.

Should tourists cover-up?

on because it’s so hot. It doesn’t bother me at all, and I’m sure it’s the same for most people. In Marbella, obviously you have to obey the law so it’s different. It’s about adapting to whichever place you are in and not being insensitive.” Mark, 49, f ro m Edinburgh but living on the Costa del Sol “ Ye s ! T h e y should have some c o v e r.

It’s a holiday destination and a very hot one! There should not be a law against it, it’s people’s own choice. If they have made a law in Marbella about it then you have to accept it. Maybe society is less liberal than it used to be.” Anonymous “Yes, most people are not supermodels are they? And if they are attractive, then it’s distracting!

Rock and roll UK urged to discuss Gibraltar by Matt Ford SPAIN has told the British government to avoid a ‘cliff-edge’ Brexit as negotiations over Gibraltar are rumoured to be stalling. Talks between the two countries are set to confirm whether the Rock will benefit from the planned transition period after the UK leaves the European Union, during which it will remain part of the customs union and single market for 21 months. The EU shocked Downing Street in April 2017, when the 27 member states warned Britain that Gibraltar would not be included in any future trade deal unless an agreement over its future status could be agreed with Spain. In a meeting with the EU’s chief negotiator Michel Barnier last week, a Spanish minister spoke at length about the issue. An EU diplomat later revealed: “They said the talks with the UK were not going anywhere, there was a lack of engagement and they emphasised that the pressure should be maintained on the British government to talk productively with them. “It was one of the reasons that the meeting on

‘WORRIED ABOUT THE DELAY’: Spain wants a bilateral agreement on the territory’s future. Friday was three hours long.” Barnier added that a bilateral agreement on the Rock was essential to push on with a Brexit deal, alongside avoiding a hard border with Ireland and settling the rights of EU citizens living on British military bases in Cyprus. “Each of these points is necessary,” he insisted. “I repeat necessary.” Spain wants to jointly control Gibraltar’s airport and receive more help with tax fraud and tobacco smuggling in return for allowing the disputed territory to be included under the terms of Brexit.

It also aims to see some of the Rock’s riches spread to the mainland. Simon Manley, the UK’s ambassador to Spain, recently claimed the UK is in daily contact with Gibraltarian lawmakers in order that ‘Brexit turns out well for the Gibraltarians,’ while Prime Minister Theresa May has refused to accept that the territory could be cut loose. Speaking to The Guardian, a Spanish diplomatic source said: “We believe it’s fundamental that both delegations - British and Spanish - redouble their efforts to find a solution.

“It would be dangerous to underestimate the need for a deal. We have to avoid a cliff-edge and so we need to show that we can reach a deal. “A deal is still possible but we’re worried about the delay. We will be redoubling our efforts over the next two months and we trust the British government will do the same.” Molly Scott Cato, a Green MEP from Gibraltar, added: “While the border in Northern Ireland has been the focus of much attention during the Brexit negotiations the other point where UK territory will touch a member state of the EU if Brexit goes ahead - Gibraltar - has been somewhat sidelined in public debate. “The depressing reality seems to be that it is Spain that recognises the urgency of arriving at a Brexit deal and the chaos that will be caused at the border with Gibraltar if no deal is reached. “For the sake of the thousands of loyal British citizens who live on the Rock - and who voted by 96 per cent to reject Brexit - we need the Conservative government to crush the talk of no deal amongst the Brextremists and urgently engage in serious negotiations.”

Boats carrying the people, many refugees fleeing wars and persecution in sub-Saharan Africa, were spotted by the Salvamento Maritimo in the Strait of Gibraltar and the Alboran Sea. A heavily pregnant woman was among those on board the boats bound for Spain. Coastguards found her as she was going into labour and she was taken by helicopter to a hospital in Almeria after making landfall. Friday saw the arrival of some 450 people in 20 small vessels, many of them inflatable rafts. A total of 329 people were rescued from 22 vessels on Saturday and 465 were picked up from 25 boats on Sunday, according to Salvamento Maritimo figures.

slightly different arrangements around this. “We’re not saying this is a blanket risk across all 27 but it is a classic risk of the type that requires regulators with political blessing to sort the issue out themselves.” Evans also told parliament that holidaymakers would lose their right to carry an EU health insurance card, raising the likelihood of them having to pay more for cover while abroad. He added it would also be unlawful to pay claims in the EU, risking millions of contracts. “If a claim comes in two years down the line, in a country like Germany, their lawyers will be advising them you can’t pay the claim,” he said. The warnings came as Prime Minister Theresa May’s cabinet continues to have its White Paper accepted by European lawmakers.

A GUARDIA CIVIL ship that gave chase to two drug-smuggling launches suffered serious damage to its bows when it hit a rock. Beachgoers watched the drama unfold after the maritime patrol spotted the semi-inflatable boats heading at highspeed towards Moroccan waters from just outside Ceuta. Knowing these are the sort of launches often used by drug traffickers to land drugs on the Costa del Sol, the Guardia Civil gave chase. The crew of the pursued boats then ditched bales of drugs overboard and managed to escape after a series of dangerous manoeuvres. During the chase the Guardia Civil launch hit a rock, injuring several of its crew. It managed to limp back to port, where it is now awaiting repairs.

Mayor’s land giveaway ANGELES MUÑOZ, the mayor of Marbella, is once more trying to redraw the boundary lines between Marbella and Benahavis. Less than a year after she returned to power, she is attempting to move a part of Marbella - where she has a house and family has land on - out of the jurisdiction of Marbella and into that of the town’s neighbour. This has led opposition socialist councillors to cry foul. Apart from anything else, they say, Muñoz wants to fiddle with the boundary lines at the very meeting that Marbella’s 1986 Urban Plan (PGOU) is due to be definitively approved. The PGOU has had to be updated to adapt to Andalucian legislation since a more modern plan was declared void by a court. Without final approval, uncertainty will continue to plague the Marbella construction industry. Socialist councillors are worried any changes to the boundaries could put approval of the PGOU at risk. What’s more, they are suspicious of the mayor’s motives. Under Marbella’s regulations the land in question cannot be built on. However, under Benahavis’s Urban Plan, it may be possible to get building permission, claim the socialists.

Sex attack claim Pro boxers among four Brits held By Matt Ford TWO brothers who are professional boxers trained by former world champion Ricky Hatton are among four British men held in Ibiza on suspicion of gang-raping a female holidaymaker. Paul Upton, 30 and his younger brother Sonny, 29, both from London, have been remanded in custody in the wake of a court hearing following their arrests in San Antonio. A third boxer named as 21year-old Bradley Smith from St Ives in Cambridgeshire has been freed on bail with the unnamed fourth man as investigators continue to probe the case. The quartet is believed to have denied the accusations. It comes after a 29-year-old

British holidaymaker alleges she was sexually assaulted by the group after meeting them at well-known bar Lineker ’s and being force-fed two pills. She claims she was then taken to the Marian apartment complex where she was held down while the men took it in turns to have sex with her. The Upton brothers were trained by Ricky ‘The Hitman’ Hatton until September 2016, the same year Paul won the Boxing Union of Ireland super welterweight title, which he lost after being beaten for the first time in his career last month by fellow Briton Ted Cheesman. Sonny, also a super welterweight, has fought professionally 15 times They had prior to their arrests shared several pictures of

their holiday on social media. Sources told UK media that the woman’s allegations are being taken ‘very seriously.’ One said: “She met the men while she was with some female friends at Linekers Bar in San Antonio. “Her friends left saying they’d be back but in the meantime the woman began to feel ill and the men offered to accompany her back to her hotel. “She says that after leaving the bar they headed for the beach and she was given two pills by one of the men while another went for a swim.” The woman is understood to have been drinking heavily and was unable to give detectives a clear account, and she was examined by medics after the alleged assault.

Hash stash uncovered POLICE have arrested seven men and seized 7,600 kilos of hashish in a series of raids on drugs ‘warehouses’. It was the end of a three month operation in La Linea de la Concepcion (Cadiz) that started when they discovered a secret storage space accessed through a door designed to look like a shower tray. A suspected drugs smuggler and a builder were arrested while carrying out maintenance work at a lock up store in the Andalusian town. The duo had disabled the door mechanism when they detected police, who then had to smash through 45 centimetres of concrete to reach the hidden cache of 6,000 kilos of hashish. In the second phase of the operation National Police focused on identifying the people who were building the secret compartments and put a surveillance plan into action. This revealed that a criminal organisation that specialised in building secret caches using hydraulic lifts had moved into the town. The hashish would be landed on the coast of the Campo de Gibraltar before being hidden away. Of the seven arrests, five are accused of building the secret stores and the other two of drug offences. Police spotted several suspects visiting a second store and moved in. There they found a similar hidden cache, along with 1,600 kilos of hashish. Police are now investigating how many secret stores the men may have built in the area.

Paint gun ordeal by Matt Ford A BRITISH teenager could lose his sight after his eyes were ‘split in two’ by a paint gun spraying revellers at a Magaluf nightclub. Dillon Connery, 18, was found on the floor after being shot in the face by a stage-mounted gun at the Carwash Club. Spanish medics are battling to save the cyber security firm trainee from Paisley’s eyes in the wake of the horror accident, which happened just hours after he arrived in Mallorca with six pals. He has already undergone a series of operations in Spain and flown back to Glasgow for more treatment at Gartnavel Hospital.

Wine fraud gang held A GANG that allegedly relabelled bottles of €19 wine then sold them for thousands each has been broken up. Guardia Civil say that the criminal organisation was selling counterfeit bottles of premium brands such as Pingus, Flor de Pingus and Vega Sicilia Unico for up to €1,900. Four people have been arrested and four others charged with belonging to a criminal organisation, as well as offences against industrial property and public health. They have also been accused of fraud and money laundering. Guardia Civil say the operation covered A Coruña, Madrid and Malaga. The detainees had bought 500 bottles of wine from a Ribera del Duero winery before repackaging them in an elaborate scam. They even silk-screen printed the corks in exactly the same way as the original brands. Once the forgery process was completed, the bottles were sold in three ways: online through a specialised website, in an exclusive restaurant in A Coruña owned by one of the detainees, and in an auction portal for international clients.

Warrant dropped Spain’s top court ends EU arrest request for Puigdemont by Joe Gerrard SPAIN’S Supreme Court has rejected a decision from justices in Germany barring the extradition of the former Catalan President on rebellion charges and has dropped his European arrest warrant. The German court ruled Carles Puigdemont could be extradited to Spain on lesser charges of the misuse of public funds in connection with last year’s Catalan independence referendum and declaration. The Spanish court dismissed this and has chosen to lift the warrant all together. The court has also pulled warrants for five other proindependence leaders currently living abroad following the push for independence. The arrest warrant for Puigdemont inside of Spain

Puigdemont said in a Twitter post the decision showed the ‘immense weakness’ of the legal case that has dogged him since last year. “Today is a day to demand the freedom of political prisoners. If they are freed from custody it would demonstrate the Spanish justice

system is beginning to act more European,” he said. The court’s decision is the second time warrants targeting the former president have been lifted. Puigdemont has been in Germany since he was detained there in connection with European warrants issued for his arrest. He has remained there on bail

awaiting a decision from the court on whether to allow his extradition. He previously went from Spain to Belgium and lived in self-imposed exile after Spanish authorities sought to detain him in connection with the holding of last year’s referendum. His administration unilaterally declared the region independent after a majority of those polled backed secession and the government in Madrid imposed direct rule on the region as a result. Madrid reportedly considers it unacceptable that Puigdemont would not be tried on rebellion charges, which carry a sentence of up to 30 years in jail. Several other figures in the Catalan independence movement including former politicians remain in custody on similar charges.

Leader chosen PABLO CASADO has bested rival Soraya Saenz de Santamaria in their face off for the leadership of the conservative Partido Popular (PP). The 37-year-old former vice-head of communications for the party secured the backing of around 60 per cent of PP members polled in the runoff with Mariano Rajoy’s ex-deputy. The party faithful met in Madrid to elect and anoint their new leader, with grandees including regional presidents and the former Prime Minister in attendance. Casado said in his victory speech he would propose a contract with Spain in which the PP would seek to return the institutions of government to the people. Saenz de Santamaria congratulated Casado on his victory and thanked her supporters for backing her. Casado said in a series of media interviews after the vote on Saturday his party would provide a strong opposition to the governing leftist Partido Socialista (PSOE). “The PP has returned. Not to do the same as before but to improve the connection with society so that we have a sufficient majority to do what Spanish society wants us to do,” he said. Casado also revealed the PP would hold its first National Executive Committee under his leadership in Barcelona. “We want to convey the message that the PP will fight for constitutionalism and public liberties in Cataluña,” he said. He added he wanted to carry out what he dubbed a “liberal conservative reformist” programme if in government. This would include toughening abortion laws and the Criminal Code as well as reforming electoral law, he said. “People are waiting for this agenda and it’s my commitment that we will carry it out.” Casado said he would seek to unite the party and offered to work with the centrist Ciudadanos party on some issues.

DEADLY: Three have been killed by Asian hornets.

Killer hornets strike A 65-YEAR-OLD man in Galicia has died after being stung by an invasive species of hornet, the third to do so in a week. Local emergency services personnel said the man, named as Manuel FP, had died after having an allergic reaction to the sting. The previous two to die also experienced re a c tions a fte r be ing s t ung by nat i ve species, emergency services added. An Asian hornet stung the bus driver, who was nearing retirement, at around 6pm. He then went into his house and his wife gave him a shot of adrenaline knowing he was allergic to the stings, according to reports. Galicia’s Emergency Services said they could do nothing for the man when they arrived at the scene. The de a th c ome s a s two ot her peopl e

Asian wasps can kill people who are allergic to stings and they are also a risk to people in ill health. A spokesperson for the Spanish Association of Beekeepers said they had received between one and three warnings a day since the insects were first spotted around two weeks ago. Workers have managed to clear between 30 and 40 nests so far this year. The insects are believed to have arrived in Europe in around 2004. They were first recorded in France with media reports suggesting they came in boxes of pottery from China.

‘Rambo of Cantabria’ shot at police

AMBUSHED: Luciano Jose Simon was caught in the wake of a 24-hour search.

by Matt Ford A MAN dubbed the ‘Rambo of Cantabria’ has been held at his parents’ home in the hamlet of Turieno after a nine-hour gunfight with armed police. Luciano Jose Simon, 58, fled the scene of the shootout brandishing an unlicensed shotgun, sparking a manhunt including 100 officers and a helicopter. Detectives were baffled how he made his escape after a special operations firearms unit launched smoke bombs before storming the house to find it empty, leading regional president Miguel Angel Revilla to describe the swoop as ‘a total shambles’ in a tweet. Simon was believed to be holed up somewhere in the mountainous Liebana valley in which the village lies, but a day-long sweep of the area failed to reveal his whereabouts despite it being completely sealed off. He was ambushed when returning to the property without the gun 24 hours after the incident, which was earlier described as ‘like something out of Hollywood’ by one neighbour. The drama unfolded when the suspect’s brother called the police, claiming his sibling who has a criminal record for drug use, robbery and physical violence - had pulled a knife on him and other members of the family during an argument.

But when a Guardia Civil patrol pulled up to the house around 9pm Simon started firing at them from a small window after barricading himself in the attic. Reinforcements were called and an exchange of bullets ensued, with Simon firing at least 20 times, injuring one officer’s foot, while the hamlet’s 100 inhabitants were told to stay indoors after police described him as ‘extremely dangerous.’ At some point between 6am and 7am he vanished as the special operations unit arrived, with investigators now believ-

ing he wriggled through a skylight on the back of the building before disappearing into the surrounding forest. The mayor of neighbouring Camaleño, Oscar Casares, called the encounter “unprecedented,” describing the “fear and worry” experienced by locals after they learned he had made his getaway with the gun. Simon, who was said to be “hungry and exhausted” when captured, has been remanded in custody and is unlikely to be granted bail, the Guardia Civil confirmed in a statement.

President probe Prosecutors investigate after ‘hate crime’ claims by Joe Gerrard PROSECUTORS in Santiago have opened an investigation into the head of the Franco Foundation after a leftist party accused him of denying crimes against humanity committed during the dictator’s rule. Investigators in the Galician capital opened a probe after receiving a complaint from Esquerda Unida (EU). They claimed Juan Chicharro Ortega’s remarks on a television programme broke laws which deem certain remarks about Fascist-era Spain and its dictator illegal. Prosecutors have since passed on the case file to their colleagues in Madrid. “Franco did not shoot or order to shoot,” Ortega said. The EU, the Galician branch of the national Izquierda Unida (IU) party, said the remarks denied “crimes against humanity” committed under Franco’s rule. Eva Solla, the head of the EU and of the Galician Communist Party, said the opening of the case was good news. “We understand that both the opening of proceedings by the Prosecutor’s Office and the investigation are both positive developments.”

PROBE OPENED: Eva Solla’s (inset) Esquerda Unida party made the complaint to Santiago prosecutors. “The EU hopes that justice will be done and that an investigation will be opened into the Foundation itself and they will be condemned,” she said. The Foundation and Ortega had not published any comment about the probe on social media or elsewhere online. Ortega said in a previous statement shortly after becoming president of the group that his goal was to defend the dictator’s historical legacy. The Foundation also said in a statement that Franco had not committed genocide during his time in power.

“To accuse Francisco Franco of genocide, it would be necessary to prove that he tried to destroy a national or racial group.” “The accusations of genocide from the left lack intellectual rigour and is untenable in law,” the group added. The EU said the Foundation continued to “promote and exalt” the dictatorship in material it distributes with the aim of making an apology for it. Eva Solla said: “Spain is the second country in the world with more people missing, second only to Cambodia.

“After 40 years since the transition to democracy we still have no justice, dignity and reparation for the victims of Franco’s regime.” Several mass graves containing what some claim are the victims of Franco-sponsored purges and massacres have been unearthed this year, including in Cadiz and Mallorca. Spain’s Law of Historical Mem or y, passed i n 2007, commits the government to officially recognise the vict i m ’s of Fr anco’s r egi m e and to condemn his time in power.

Consequences of giving a proxy WITH so many holiday homes throughout southern Spain it is not difficult to imagine that some of the owners who live abroad or in other parts of Spain simply will not be able

to attend the community meetings arranged by their presidents. However many would still like to have their vote included on the different points on

the agenda to be decided. A postal vote by mail cannot be accepted at a general meeting but fortunately the Law of Horizontal Property, the law that governs all communities throughout Spain, makes provision for a situation where an owner cannot attend a general meeting in paragraph one of article 15, when it says: Attendance of the general assembly of owners shall be in person - or by legal or voluntary representation, a written authorisation signed by the owner being sufficient to accredit that representation. In other words a vote by proxy. A proxy could be considered to be a simple form of power of attorney whereby one person, not necessarily another owner, agrees to represent an owner who cannot attend the general meeting and vote on their behalf. The owner simply needs to sign the proxy-holders authorisation and have them present it at the general meeting, im-

Community Law Corner By José Luis Navarro Solicitor for Intercala Administration

with Pete Woodall, Woody’s Los Boliches

portantly the proxy should also state; and at any postponement thereof. A potential problem could come later when on reading the minutes of the meeting the absentee owner now disagrees with the way their proxy-holder voted or claims the proxyholder had not voted according to their wishes. The owner then approaches the president or administrator to request their vote be modified only to find unfortunately this is not possible. A proxy, once signed and given, is the same as if the owner themselves had voted at the meeting and cannot generally speaking be amended. The only course of action to resolve the situation for the

owner would be to seek compensation for damages in the civil courts against the proxyholder. An example, some members of a community are seeking to change the community statutes to prohibit the use of private apartments as tourist accommodation, by law to make this change the vote will need to be unanimous. Everyone, including the absentee owner’s proxy-holder agrees but the owner - who only bought the apartment to rent it out - obviously does not agree and could have easily defeated the proposal by simply attending the general meeting themselves and voting against it. However the owner had entrusted their vote to the proxyholder, who went against the owners wishes and supported the proposal and in doing so approved the prohibition of private apartments being used as tourist accommodation. The disgruntled owner, now unable to conduct his business and unable to modify the

legally binding unanimous vote can only fall back on the courts and try to seek compensation for damages from the representative by demonstrating the proxy-holder voted contrary to the owners specific instructions. This is the point, it is prudent to be careful. The owner has given an open proxy, to be represented in both voice and vote at a general meeting, even if the owner had given the proxy-holder a specific proxy stipulating how the representative should vote, it is not important. It is the proxy-holder’s actual vote at the meeting that will count. It is not the responsibility of the community to validate the nature or changes to a proxy, only to see that the representative has the proxy from the owner. As usual, the solicitors for Intercala Administration advise the readers of our monthly articles to seek competent advice in all matters concerning the law.

Is it a bird? ‘Superman’ robber held

SUPER DUPER: Robber disguised himself. A MAN dressed as comic book hero Superman has robbed two stores. For some unexplained reason the man thought it would be a good idea to dress up as the legendary crime fighter while he held up two Chinese food stores in Javali Nuevo and La Nora in Murcia. But the effect of the famously striking blue, red and yellow outfit was spoiled by him covering it over with a black body warmer, while a cycling helmet and dark glasses completed

the ensemble to comic effect. There was nothing funny about the double barrelled shotgun he brandished as he demanded cash during the robberies, although one child on the scene did ask the robber if the gun was real. Back came the reply “do you want to find out” at which point the terrified youngster fled the scene. National Police who viewed security videos identified a suspect. A man, aged 30, was later arrested. Police seized a shotgun, five weapons, a cycling helmet - and a Superman costume.

FOUND: Antique violin back in owner’s hands.

For sale: €40,000 violin for €7 A THIEF who stole a rare 1740 violin worth €40,000 obviously didn’t know what he had - police have just found it up for sale at a paltry €7. Dani Cubero, first violinist of the Qvixote Quartet and professor of chamber music at the Conservatori Superior del Liceu, in Barcelona lost his violin when he was mugged last November. It was his most prized possession and had cost him his life savings. Although he had lost the instrument, he never

gave up hope of having it returned as it is a unique piece that anyone in the antique musical instrument trade would spot straight away. What he hadn’t counted on was the thief never tried to sell the valuable violin in one of the upmarket instrument stores of Barcelona or further abroad. Instead it ended up at a thrift store with a price tag of just €7. It still needed a coincidence for the instrument to make its way back to Dani.

A musician was searching through second-hand stores when he was shown a violin. He thought it looked rather old so got in touch with a violinist he knew. He in turn got in touch with Dani, sending pictures. Dani immediately recognised it, and got in touch with the Mossos d’Esquadra (Catalan police) and has now been reunited with his violin, which came from the workshop of Johannes Udalrichus Eberle.

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.”

beIN pulls out of footy battle

Ex-king ‘tried to hide money’ S PA N I S H P r i m e M i n i s t e r P e d r o Sanchez has said he is unable to reveal whether the country’s ex-king received a tax amnesty six years ago. It comes after a recording of German philanthropist Corinna zu Sayn-Wittgenstein, 53, a former mistress of King Juan Carlos I, was leaked by Spanish media. In the audio clip, she claims he benefited from the 2012 measure, which allowed tax dodgers to reveal all their undeclared assets and income before paying a one-off 10

by Matt Ford per cent fine. It was designed to bring in money and reduce public deficit during the economic crisis. Far-left political party Podemos had demanded Sanchez make the names of those who paid the sanction public, but in parliament he said it is “not possible to review the cases of those who benefited from that amnesty,” or reveal their names because it was last year declared void by the Constitutional Court.

MIDDLE EASTERN broadcaster Al Jazeera Media Network’s beIN Sports channel is to cease broadcasting in Spain from August 1. The move follows Spanish rival Telefonica’s acquisition of the rights to UEFA’s Champions League and Europa League football in the country, with the firm having already clinched the La Liga domestic football rights for 2019-2020. beIN Connect’s website is no longer offering subscriptions to beIN Sports, although a strippeddown football bundle similar to that unveiled recently by Vodafone Spain is available.

“I don’t have any idea who benefited from the amnesty,” he added. Podemos lawmaker Ione Belarra said: “The citizens of our country have the right to know if the former king is a fraudster or not.” King Juan Carlos abdicated in 2014 in the wake of a string of scandals, and in the recording zu Sayn-Wittgenstein alleges he had several bank accounts in Switzerland, some of which he submitted for the amnesty, while others were kept secret after being put in the name of a cousin.

UK-BASED car insurance specialist Admiral has announced it is to move its continental headquarters f r o m L o n d o n t o o ff i c e s i n Madrid and Sevilla from January 1, 2019 amid fears over Brexit, the Spanish Economy Ministry said in a statement.

Pipe down PRIME SUSPECTS: Trade unions accused officers of attacking protestors. A THREE-DAY strike by Amazon warehouse employees in Madrid has descended into violence. Timed to coincide with the e-commerce giant’s Prime Day summer promotion, the industrial action saw police in riot gear charging picket lines on grounds they were blocking traffic, trade union officials said. At least two protesters were arrested during the rally over

working conditions, with one demonstrator reportedly losing teeth after being hit in the face with a truncheon. A photo shared on social media by Alberto Rodriguez, a member of Spain’s Congress of Deputies, appeared to show a blood-stained shirt outside the company’s warehouse in San Fernando de Henares. The image was captioned: “This is the respect that Amazon Spain has for its workers.”

Warships deal confirmed SAUDI ARABIAN MILITARY INDUSTRIES (SAMI) has signed a deal to build five warships with Spain’s Navantia. The two state-owned firms will set up the joint venture - part of a €1.8 billion project agreed in April - in the Middle Eastern kingdom. It will cover the design and construction of

five Avante 2200 Corvettes, with the last unit to be delivered by 2022, and generate 6,000 jobs including 1,100 direct posts. Saudi Arabia’s biggest sovereign wealth reserve, the Public Investment Fund, last year created SAMI after the government announced plans to diversify the economy in order to reduce its reliance on oil exports and create jobs.

What on earth is going on? LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT CAN anyone please tell me what the hell is actually going on with this planet of ours? The whole shebang seems to be teetering on some kind of destabilising precipice with our socalled leaders stumbling through it all in a complete befuddled daze. Politics groping through a tangled jungle of confusion and governmental garbage, getting all their priorities wrong and having no knowledge or way of even vaguely coming to grips with it all. Those, who are laughingly under the impression that they can make a difference, are all rushing around, trying to look important and ultimately reversing up their own backsides. I cannot help but think we are yet again all pawns in some devious plan set in motion by those who truly run our lives. Shadowy figures, who walk the secret corridors of those who hold the wealth of the world to their electronic bosoms and have the ability to buy and sell countries. These individuals instigate, and even rely on worldwide destabilisation, confusion and chaos to put their own devious and self-gratifying schemes into operation. Dividing and prospering is their speciality. Another Leapy rant? I hear you say. Well I was accused of plenty of those, when I warned 30 years

‘UNPREDICTABLE’ TV PERSONALITY: The President of the United States. or more ago that if we didn’t come to terms and sort out the immigration problems, it would be too late and our enemies would be everywhere. So, don’t dismiss the ‘ol boy’s ramblings too flippantly. Look at the state were all in. Mid-East turmoil, African wars (Congo in particular, who conveniently hold vast supplies of cobalt, required in the

manufacture of electric cars!) is forcing so many opposing cultures and numbers into the mix, they are destabilising economies, causing anger and distrust in communities; destroying freedom of speech and generally upsetting their whole previously peaceful and fairly contented existence. These manipulators must love all this EU fiasco,

you can bet they have a few fingers in that particular pie. Palestine are chucking over missiles into Israel and going virtually unreported. Russia has been taken over by criminals. China is still twitching nervously (after managing to drop the lid on the North Korean antics for a bit). An unpredictable TV personality controls the most powerful nation on Earth (or thinks he does!). All this diversity rubbish has created its natural reaction from idiots, whose lunatic ideas and schemes muddy the waters of common sense even more. And on it goes. I just can’t shake off the feeling that the whole thing is some kind of smoke screen, devised by these hidden manipulators to create some form of new world order which will be beneficial to only them. Saudi Arabia doesn’t seem to be experiencing too much turmoil since their new man took over. They have you notice put up a seriously red herring of sharing in our drastic culture changes by allowing women to drive! By the amount of money they have sucked out over the years, you can bet there’s a few of their oily fingers entrenched somewhere in the ‘club.’ Ah well. There is only one thing you can rely on. The likes of you, I, and most everyone else, can’t do a durned thing about it. Lend us a fiver! Keep the faith. Love Leapy. leapylee2002@gmail.com

Advertising Feature IF you visit Absolute Beds before 2pm and make a purchase then delivery within a 25-mile radius of the showroom in San Pedro Alcantara could be made the same day. This is a unique company which has an exceptional stock of the finest beds and mattresses from Spain and Europe, including many British ranges. When you enter the large facility which displays a huge number of different size beds, mattresses, toppers, pillows and bed linen you need to speak with the proprietor Meyer Wahnich who has more than 45 years of experience in the industry, of which 14 have been spent on the Costa del Sol. He doesn’t just speak beds, but also no less than seven other languages, so you can be assured that when you meet with him, he knows what he is talking about. First of all, take the Bed MOT (Mattress Obsolescence Test) which asks 10 questions about your mattress and if you answer yes to three questions, it’s possible that you aren’t getting a best night’s sleep and if you manage five or more, then it is without doubt time for a new bed. With such a wide stock and also the

Many people have unknowingly purchased mattresses that are too hard for them, but a visit to Absolute will allow you to rectify the situation by purchasing

and king-sized. This is also where the personal touch from someone who likes to put his customers to sleep is so very important and with a huge range at the shop and the ability to satisfy special customer re-

quirements especially for the larger and more exotic beds, this is the place to visit. This means that Mayer has supplied beds for aircraft and yachts as well as hospitals and hotels, but regardless of your budget, all customers are welcome as this is a company which wants to help everyone to obtain the best value possible and the most comfortable night’s sleep. There are always great offers on at Absolute but their price match promise means that if you find a genuine offer for any bed which is cheaper than their price, they will not only match that price but will give you a further 20 per cent discount on the difference. If you live some distance from San Pedro, it’s not a problem because you can view their two very detailed websites www.emporiobeds.com and www.absolutebeds.com and then speak to Meyer on the phone to discuss your order as he will deliver along the Costa del Sol. Absolute Beds, Carretera de Ronda, Nuevo Poligono de San Pedro, Calle Eslovaquia 30 - Nave 15, 29670 San Pedro de Alcantara is open Monday to Friday from 10am to 7pm.

DID you know that many tourists are unwittingly breaking the law each year when travelling abroad with their prescribed medication? Wherever you’re travelling to, the chances are your holiday destination will have laws that are very different. According to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), it is not uncommon for medication that is acceptable in some countries, to be classified as ‘controlled drugs’ in others. The BBC have warned holidaymakers to check travel advice on medication they plan to take abroad to avoid being fined, or worse arrested and imprisoned. For example some cold remedies are banned in Japan, and Zambia won’t allow Benylin cough syrup through its borders. Examples of controlled medicines can include painkillers, such as diamorphine, and some medicines containing hormones, such as anabolic steroids. Read on for some practical advice on this little known risk facing travellers: What should you do if taking prescribed medication with you? Plan well ahead. Different countries have dif-

Travelling abroad with medication? Beware!

Make sure that your medicine is legal ferent rules and regulations on permitted medicine and the maximum quantity you can take in. Some countries, like India and Turkey, have lists of medicines they won’t allow into the country. Speak to your GP, or practice nurse about where you’ll be going at least 4-6 weeks before you travel so they can advise whether special arrangements are required for your particular medication.

You also can get information about the rules that apply to the country you are visiting from their local foreign embassy. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office website also provides more general country information on health: https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice. How to travel with your medication Always carry medication and medical equipment (eg needles) in their original, labelled packages. Carry a copy of your prescription and

ideally a letter from your GP with details of your health condition/s and your medication, including the generic name of the medicine (not just the brand name). This documentation will be very helpful if you need to arrange replacement medication for any reason while abroad, as well as helping you through border control. Carry at least three days’ supply of essential medication in your hand luggage in case your baggage is delayed. Note that you are allowed to carry essential medicines of more than 100ml in your hand luggage, as long as you have supporting documentation from your doctor. Pack spare medication in your checked-in luggage too (with copies of the supporting prescription), in case you lose your hand luggage. Don’t be caught out by medication that requires temperature control (eg below 25C) if you are travelling to a very hot country. Your doctor or local chemist should be able to provide guidance here. You can help keep your medicine cool by using a thermos flask, or cool bag with ice packs. Wherever you are going, stay safe, healthy and don’t fall foul of foreign laws. Do your research well before you travel and don’t forget to buy decent Travel Insurance. Choose Globelink, providing quality Travel Insurance for over 20 years, wherever you live in the EU.

TV COUCH CRITIC by Adam Whalley-Lewis LET’S start with some humble pie. I think that I need to check into that clinic for people who suffer with ‘watching The Voice.’ I accidently tuned in last weekend and found myself watching The Kids final on ITV. I enjoyed it. There I have said it, I tuned in, watched and enjoyed it. The winner, Daniel Davis, blasted out Any Time You Need a Friend. Daniel is 14 and I’m sure made Mariah Carey proud. Daniel’s mentor was Pixie Lott, who looked stunning in a gold dress. It was such a shame that Will.i.am turned up to the final wearing some maroon linen PJ’s he obviously picked up from Malaga market. I think the stallholder would have been really grateful to have shifted them. If you didn’t see the show, think M&S loungewear, in maroon creased - with baggy shorts. Thanks for making the effort Will. Wonder if Ad.am.i would work for me? Maybe not ... Some TV news, the BBC has axed The Great Pottery Throw Down. Now, this BBC2 show attracts an audience of over three million and who doesn’t like to see Sara Cox getting her hands covered in sloppy clay, so why is Auntie B pulling the plug? Well, the show is made by Love Productions (can you imagine the switchboard operator:

Views of a Grumpy Old Man THERE was a new series starting on TV last Sunday called ‘Unforgotten.’ I do like a bit of ‘who dunnit’ drama on the TV and this series is on for the next eight weeks. I am also watching two or three other series plus the box set of Suits. (The missus insisted because Meghan Markle is in it.) Here lies the problem - after the first 15 or 20 minutes of this ‘Unforgotten’ I was lost. There are too many characters, too twisty a plot and not a hope in hell of me remembering who’s who. So my suggestion is, and some programme schedulers already do this, just make a maximum of seven episodes and put one on every night for a week. Problem sorted and Robert’s yer relative. Most of us have catch up so if you are out and miss an episode you can watch it when you want and it doesn’t matter if there are two or three different series going on at different times. I mean, the dross on at the moment could easily be replaced. Like these programmes that trace your relatives back to the 17th century. What a lot of nonsense! I wasn’t even sure who my dad was never mind my great,

Simon Cowell is joined by Louis Tomlinson (boy band) plus Mr and Mrs Robbie Williams. I think the EWN Grumpy Old Man needs to investigate the husband and wife pairing here, don’t you?

26 July - 1 August 2018

great, great, great grandfather! Talking of TV and entertainment my mind wandered back, for some reason, to when I was a kid some 60 years ago and to a radio show I used to listen to. I think it was on a Saturday and featured Archie Andrews and Peter Brough. It was called ‘Educating Archie.’ So what made me think of this? Well for the first time I remembered that Archie was a puppet and Peter was a ventriloquist. Yup that’s right a ventriloquist act on the radio! What was the point? Nobody could see if his lips moved or not! The things we just used to accept and to be honest really enjoy. Last Friday was the 13th and couple of things went boss-eyed. Nothing serious but they were immediately blamed on the day and the date! I’m not superstitious but in my mum’s flats they never had a number 13 because they reckoned people wouldn’t buy it which I was amazed at. Actually Mrs S has just told me nor do we! One of the funniest things happened to me on a plane once. My seat number was 13F. As she got in her seat in row 12, a woman looked at me and said, “I don’t envy you, you are in the unlucky seat.” The big grin on her face soon disappeared when I politely informed her that if row 13 went down there was a very good chance row 12 was coming with it! mikesenker@gmail.com

POTTY DECISION: Was the Beeb’s axing of The Great Pottery Throwdown a revenge move? across Holiday Horrors Caught on Camera. It was late and I think I might have breathed in some of the smoke from the first wild fire of the season in Casares - side bar, thoughts and prayers with the bomberos and others who fight wild fires across

Spain, you were fantastic in Casares last week but I don’t call getting an unexpected visitor in your tent whilst on safari (surely to be expected), or finding out that you and a few pals have a holiday jet to yourselves, is a holiday horror. Most of us have some experience of holidays going pearshaped and I’m not sure these experiences fall into the horror category. If you fancy a late-night romp with random folk on their holibops, catch up via the ITV Hub. Sticking with BBC2, having cancelled Pottery Throw Down, Tuesday saw the second of three programmes documenting the £5 billion supersewer being built below London. A friend pushed the initial plans through parliament on this one (hola Alison), but this is a prime-time slot and while the scale of what is going on is impressive, apart from Alison and any engineering fans out there, this one is probably best viewed on a long transatlantic night flight, you will nod right off. Looking ahead, The Hairy Bikers continue their Mediterranean Adventure on BBC2, Friday evening (quite a lot of BBC2 this week …) and fans of Dad’s Army won’t want to miss We’re Doomed, The Dad’s Army Story on (yes, you guessed it) BBC2, Saturday evening.

Ignorance was not an excuse in the past LEAPY, I was interested in your article which stated a rapist was set free because he didn’t understand British law. It had always been my understanding that ignorance of the law is no defence. It would appear that a precedent has been set and now this excuse has been legalised. How many people can now escape prosecution with this excuse? I was interested in a previous article about graffiti, following the death of three alleged vandals on the railway. I worked on the railway for many years and these hooligans were a menace, destroying everything in their path. First of all they hit the trains. This resulted in trains being taken out of service to be cleaned. Now trains don’t grow on Christmas trees and a train that is stopped for repair may result in a cancellation. Of course the disgruntled passengers blame the train operator, not the perpetrators. Trains are infrequently vandalised now, that is because depots and sidings have more security fencing and cameras than Fort Knox. Instead these mindless yobs destroy bridges and line side equipment, and

Instead of being charged with criminal damage, they were charged with tampering with railway signalling equipment. And that m’lud carries a mandatory prison sentence. They should have said they were unaware that it was illegal, they might have got away with it. John Blake, Arboleas

TIME TO ACT: Refuse boarding if drunk.

AS a resident of Spain, living in Javea, who regularly visits the UK, I am horrified at the number of young men and women who are even allowed to board planes at the boarding gate as they appear and act in an intoxicated manner. They are loud and abusive to airport staff, air crew and fellow passengers. It is time for the Airport staff to act and to refuse boarding, have the ability to call Security and if it is deemed they can continue their journey, for the Cap-

Girlfriend of tourist who broke his neck in Magaluf If you can’t afford about £20 for insurance for full cover including repatriation when booking your flight then don’t go cap in hand and expect everybody else to pay for it. It’s about time that all these holiday companies included compulsory insurance for holidays abroad. Too many people think nothing is going to happen to them. Pay for your own repatriation. Phil Should have had insurance. Why do people expect others to foot the bill? Only got themselves to blame. We never went without insurance. Eileen Toyne I thought the idea of being in the EU was that the healthcare is seamless across all borders and that should apply to medical transport. John and Rose This is so sad. Travel companies should insist on travel insurance. No insurance no travel. Robert Mitchell Bear in mind that if an accident or incident occurs while a person is under the influence of alcohol (ie drunk) that can also affect travel insurance. And before anyone jumps down my throat I’m NOT saying that this lad was drunk. Karen Hanson Wouldn’t have been quite so bad but he didn’t even

Question of I READ with interest the comment in Leapy Lee’s column where he stated he had renewed his driving licence and it had a nice Union Jack on it.

Visit Madrid MY wife and I recently returned from a short city break in Madrid. On our return to Torrevieja I spoke with my fellow expats in the pubs and bars and was surprised very few had taken the trip. I decided on the back of that to write this letter to implore your readers to visit the Spanish capital. We strolled down the Gran Via from City Hall and took in an urban vista not unlike the other great cities of Europe. When we reached the other end we found ourselves in awe at the Royal Palace and the Santa Maria Cathedral. Fellow expatriates, jump on the AVE and get to Madrid! Craig Fitzgerald, Torrevieja

More police I AM worried about the spate of crimes that are happening on the Costa del Sol. At least six robberies have occurred in the last month in places like Riviera, Calahonda, including Mijar Golf House, and Mirador de Miraflores. It’s time councils invested more in their police forces and had more of a presence on the streets to keep us safe. I also seem to be reading about drugs arrests far too often, with more funding the police should be able to dismantle these organisations. Jack Salinger, Calahonda

Trivia from around the world *** ‘Name Days’ are seen as being on par with a person’s birthday in Bulgaria. The occasion is marked on a Saints Day if the person shares a name with the holy figure celebrated. *** Mongolia’s stock exchange is the smallest in the capitalist world and is housed in a former children’s cinema.

*** The Atacama Giant, a figure of a man carved into a Chilean hillside, is the largest such depiction of a human being in the world at 119 metres high. *** Public displays of affection are taboo in Togo and courting is typically conducted with secrecy.

*** Yemen is currently facing a long-term water crisis. Its population is growing rapidly and some estimate water there could run out within 10 years. *** Antarctica is around 14 million square kilometres in size making it about one-and-ahalf times bigger than the United States.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20)

DID YOU KNOW? People out shopping on an empty stomach tend to buy more items, including those which are not edible, according to a study. Researchers at the University of Minnesota conducted five experiments and concluded extra purchases were motivated by the release of the ghrelin hormone by the stomach when people are hungry. The chemical affects the reward and motivation centres of the brain.

Increased activity in your love life means less time to really concentrate on business. Make sure that priority financial matters are dealt with. Not doing so will see you kicking yourself later on. A close relationship is going well. There’s no reason to wonder why, the charm offensive is obviously working.

Keeping an eye on your health is particularly important at the moment. Because you have been active, it could be that you need to give yourself a bit of time. Pampering and just plain relaxing are all going to stand you in good stead during the coming week.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) Opening your mind to a new idea has convinced you that it is time for a change in direction. This is such a time, but not all changes will be permanent. Give yourself a way out of any situation this week. Using your tact and charm, it will require only a little application to please everyone.

Improvising within a new business situation may not give you the perfect answer to a problem. What it will do, however, is give you an insight into the way others live. Until now, your approach to life may have been a little one-sided.

nonetheless. Relatives issue words of warning but they have only your best interests at heart.

LEO (July 24 - August 23) Opposing opinions on a matter close to your heart see you hesitating. There is nothing wrong with asking for advice. The chances are that you know someone who has already been through your situation. Don’t let pride make you miss out on a solution.

VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) Not everything in the garden is rosy but you are made of strong stuff. Your conviction that something is right helps you in discussions. Support given to a loved one may be misguided, especially if it is a huge financial gamble.

LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) This is a time to enjoy the present and look forward to the future. Don’t forget, along the way, to congratulate yourself for all that you have achieved in the last year. Sometimes you do not blow your own trumpet and people appreciate you in a quiet way.

SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) An appetite for something new means that you tread unknown ground. It’s an exciting time when you may find it easier to do things alone. This does not mean you have to feel alone as others can be told of your progress.

SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) Part of being ‘you’ is your independent mind. Some may try to change that this week. Why would someone want to make you more dependent on them? Could it be that they feel insecure? Giving reassurance may be all that is needed. We all feel the need for appreciation.

Malaga FAME is the word. Ordinary people crave it and strive after it and those who have it wonder why they ever bothered chasing it in the first place. It is in this spirit that Paul Revere’s horse opens up in a gripping and bitter tell-all of life under the American revolutionary midnight rider’s saddle. Then there’s the praise heaped on one of the Second World War’s best-known dictators in a magazine profile. Not to mention the tale of the film critic condemned to live in the films he has scathingly reviewed. And the anxiety of one father who’s child outstrips his success while in the womb. In a series of short stories inspired by author Simon Rich’s experiences in Hollywood, Hits and Misses chronicles the absurdity that often accompanies success and the humanity in failure.

Tan-tastic: how to stay bronzed WE spend hours in the sun trying to get bronzed and look good, but after a few days back in the colder weather, any reminder of the endless hours patiently sunbathing soon fade; here are a few tips to help keep you looking tanned and healthy. Preparation of the skin is vital to achieve a glowing tan, always moisturise the skin daily, there is no such a thing as over moisturising. Days before you leave for your holiday take time to exfoliate the skin thoroughly and apply liberal amounts of moisturiser. Once at your holiday destination, use sunscreen. Higher factors for the first few days are recommended until you have the basis of a tan then you can lower the factor. Always use an after-sun cream, preferably one containing Aloe Vera that helps repair the skin. When showering use cool water. Hot water can strip the skin of oils essential to retain a good tan. It is advisable to use a hydrating shower cream or oil rather than a gel or a foam. If you need to exfoliate after your holiday, do so very gently. Dead skin cells can make the skin appear dull but do not scrub! Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.

CHOCOHOLICS will be happy to learn that chocolate milk is one of the best drinks to boost recovery after exercise. According to a recent survey, chocolate milkshakes allow athletes to exercise for six minutes longer than advertised sports drinks as well as improve heart rate and lactic acid levels which could cause cramping. The chocolate and milk combined contains carbohydrates, proteins, fats and electrolytes unlike the more traditional drinks which often do not contain proteins. The research was conducted at the Sadoughi University in Iran, Study author Dr Amin Salehi-Abargouei said, “Chocolate milk contains carbohydrates, proteins, fats, flavonoids, electrolytes, and some vitamins which make this drink a good choice for recovery in athletes. “The take-home message is that chocolate milk is a low-

Their post-recovery process was then analysed with tests done on heart rates, levels of lactic acid and tiredness. Kim Spaccarotella from Kean University in Union, New Jersey, was not involved in the study, but agreed with the research, saying, “Any food that provides carbohydrate, protein, fluid and electrolytes and is well-tolerated will help promote recovery. “In addition to chocolate milk, other popular choices

All in the mind WHILST we may have read about Meghan Markle’s strict meditation routine in the days leading to her wedding or Goldie Hawn’s summer vacation to a retreat in Greece, the relatively new practice of mindfulness is still an unknown practice that most of us are still unacquainted with. Rooted from ancient Buddhist traditions, the modern version of the mindfulness movement began in 1979. Kabat-Zinn; a professor from Massachusetts Medical School who worked on pain relief in his patients discovered that patients tried to mentally escape or avoid the pain, but this inner struggle resulted in creating more problems, mental anguish and exhaustion. By teaching them a mindful approach to the pain, he

could relieve distress and improve overall health. Mindfulness is a natural quality that we all possess, we just need to focus on the art of creating space for ourselves - time to think, breathe and be aware of our actions at that present moment. The benefits of practising mindfulness in adults, children and in the workplace are overwhelming. Proven positive outcomes include the following: Decreased stress, better health, more energy, reduced depression symptoms, assistance in recovery, improved academic success and enhanced ability to deal with illness. To learn the art of mindfulness needs consistent practice as quoted by Buddha - ‘Each morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most.’ So, to begin the process

set a time limit each day that will be viable, take a seat in a place that makes you feel calm and start by noticing your body. Feel the sensation of your breath as you inhale and exhale. When you notice your mind beginning to wander and your attention leaves the sensations of the breath to think of other things simply return your attention to the breath. Don’t be judgemental to yourself or obsess over the content of your thoughts, just go back to experiencing the awareness of your breath so you too can feel the amazing benefits of this calming form of meditation. Remember - ‘Mindfulness is the act of being intensely aware of what you’re sensing and feeling at every moment - without interpretation or judgement.’

LEGALLY SPEAKING Can she sell an inherited car? My husband recently passed away. I am in the process of selling the car which was in his name. The man who wants to buy it has requested a copy of my late husband’s passport and NIE certificate and I am somewhat suspicious of this. MB (Costa Blanca)

TEACHERS must stop trying to wrap children in cotton wool with OTT health and safety policies, according to the chief inspector of schools. Making pupils wear high-vis vests on trips makes them look like Bob the Builder minus the hard hat, and enforcing bans on conkers and yo-yos by schools makes it harder for kids to tackle real dangers. Couldn’t agree more! And what about the silencing of Big Ben until 2021 to prevent maintenance workers being deafened? As one MP scoffed: “The Luftwaffe couldn’t stop it, but health and safety has.” A father had to demolish his garden pond because burglars could fall in and drown. He faced eviction if he failed to remove it. Health and Safety legislation has undeniably saved many lives and prevented many serious injuries, but this has surely gone too far. And the reason for all this? The threat of lawsuits and the consequent closing of ranks when an incident does occur. Overall, the UK’s PC culture continues to thrive. Arthur Ransome’s novel Swallows and Amazons has been popular with kids for generations

but, according to the BBC, one of its characters is too rude for today. It decided Titty was an unsuitable name and went for Tatty instead. Not for the first time: it made a similar decision back in 1963, when it chose Kitty. And an unknown school in England even banned a Wonder Woman lunchbox for being ‘too violent,’ according to a viral image posted online by a mum. “We have defined ‘violent characters’ as those who solve problems using violence. Superheroes certainly fall into that category,” read the letter from the school. Help! Basically, when PC fanatics set their

AN Amazon vendor just gave me a stark ultimatum: take down my bad review, or lose the €209 they owed me. Would you? In these litigious times they could of course just sue, as indeed a New York doctor did last month for a million dollars, when a patient posted a negative review. Then again you might recall what happened when guests logged a terrible review of Blackpool’s Broadway Hotel (‘a rotten stinking hovel’). The hotelier made headline news and was deluged by crippling publicity after adding a £100 (€114) fine to their bill for reputational damage. And now it’s happened to me. Hold the presses. It all started with a quest for a phone - a very particular phone, which only one vendor stocked, on Amazon’s French ‘Marketplace.’ That’s where Amazon lets third-party merchants sell their own goods and pay the retail giant a tidy commission (on condition they don’t undercut Amazon’s own prices, but that’s a juicy titbit for a different kind of article).

Then you can transfer the title of the car into your own name, and sell it. A good gestoria can help you through this process for a modest fee. The gestoria will also make sure the transfer itself is properly completed into the buyer’s name.

blocked. Voila and ouch. To my shame, I buckled. Every man has his price, and mine is a derisory €209. Then my refund arrived safely and I instantly reposted my review, turbocharged, updated and twice as mean. With another one for luck on the widely-consulted TrustPilot ratings site. So there. Amazon’s press office has gone to ground with my subsequent query, but its policy couldn’t be clearer: sellers absolutely cannot force buyers to remove their comments, says an official response on the American mother-ship’s site. Any attempt to manipulate ratings, feedback or product reviews is prohibited and could result in a vendor’s ‘selling privileges’ being revoked. Bottom line: we CAN fight back against shoddy service. Bad reviews might not ruin the Microsofts or Apples of this world, your local pizza joint or even my haughty French merchant. Let’s face it though, revenge is sweet. After I got my €209 back.

Blackmail order MY favourite Amazon review comes from a dissatisfied buyer: ‘I measured the TV and it was actually 104.6 inches not 105 so I returned it.’ No, customers aren’t always right as the old dictum has it. Except in their own minds. The tough reality with consumers now holding so much power in their pens is that, when a customer complains, vendors simply have to grin and bear it. At best they can have a review taken down if it has been posted multiple times, or is ‘libellous, defamatory, harassing, threatening or inflammatory.’ By all means speak out when service is shoddy, but keep it in proportion. Is it worth it spending hours of your life trying to bring down a company for a single shoddy service? Well, perhaps …

Fried gnocchi with parmesan

to Live Well by Andrew Harding LAST week I started talking about essential vitamins and minerals that humans need, to remain healthy. I covered Vitamin A last time, this week I am going to cover Vitamin D and before anyone asks if I don’t know my alphabet, I can assure you I do. The importance of these two vitamins being fat soluble cannot be over-emphasised, which is why I am discussing them sequentially with E and K next. Both A & D vitamins have a ‘get out clause.’ As I mentioned last week, betacarotene can be turned into Vitamin A and sunshine on human skin synthesises Vitamin D. Back to more fake science; sun tans are bad for you? No, they are not, sunburn is bad for you, a sun tan indicates that your body is self-protecting. I could weep when I see parents putting their children in all-in-one suits, with a peaked cap, a neck protector and covering any other exposed flesh with sun cream and wondering why their children don’t want to go to the beach or the pool, because a) they look ridiculous and b) because they are too hot.

I have used this type of sunscreen on my three children with no problems at all. It reacts with the skin to make it UVLA (Ultra Violet Light Band A, linked with skin cancer), impervious. It is not impervious to UVLB that causes tanning. The fake science continues with regard to UVL. Yes, there is a link with malignant melanoma which can prove fatal if not discovered early enough, two other UVL related cancers are easily treatable and do not spread even after they have been present for 10+ years. However, diseases associated with Vitamin D deficiency are making a huge comeback: Osteoporosis and osteopenia, 17 types of cancer, heart disease,

high blood pressure, obesity, metabolic syndrome and diabetes, autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, bursitis, gout, infertility and PMS, Parkinson’s disease, depression and SAD, Alzheimer’s disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, chronic pain, periodontal disease and psoriasis. A tan will help to preclude all of the above, despite what the ‘experts’ say! Only one short recipe this week, but one that is full of flavour and texture.

An open air restaurant that exudes quality and charm

by John Smith WHEN in June I interviewed Marvin Humes, late of JLS, TV presenter and DJ following his successful gig at Mahiki Beach he spoke very highly of the Oak Garden & Grill in Puerto Banus. This tempted me to visit the restaurant which is an open air summer venue and arriving with my wife we were welcomed by manager Luke who made some recommendations from the extensive menu. This is a very popular establishment which sees a number of celebrity visitors and when we arrived, I spotted former Tottenham Hotspur and Republic of Ireland defender Stephen Carr enjoying a meal. The Oak Garden & Grill is a grown up eatery which isn’t brash or noisy but offers exceptional food and a beautiful garden setting with quiet music and efficient and unobtrusive staff. As it infers in its name, this is a grill which offers a huge variety of different steaks as main courses but in fact has a very varied menu with plenty of fish and vegetarian options. We chose wine by the glass as one of us had to drive (it’s worth mentioning that if you are dining at the

Oak you can use the La Sala valet parking service). The starters are unusual and extremely tasty and we tried the Langoustines and Sea Bass Peruvian Ceviche, with mango, avocado and ‘Tiger’s Milk’ which was accompanied by a spicy glass of gazpacho. Ceviche is very popular in Latin America and basically consists of raw seafood marinated (and thereby cooked) in citrus juice and if you haven’t tasted it then this dish alone should be the reason for you to visit. Also amongst the starters are fresh Burrata (a tasty Italian Buffalo cheese) with rocket salad, organic tomatoes and pesto dressing and a fantastic light Vietnamese King Crab spring roll served with green salad and a duo of dipping sauces. If you have seen the TV programme Deadliest Catch which shows the trials and tribulations of Alaskan fisherman, here is your chance to find out what they risk their lives on a regular basis to

OAK GARDEN & GRILL: A very varied menu. catch. For main courses, there is lot of steak, which comes in different cuts and sizes but one thing is certain, whichever cut you choose, be it top quality Japanese Wagyu Sirloin or a tasty piece of Galician Fillet, all accompanied by a choice of potatoes and sauces, you won’t be disappointed.

Opening party LAST week the restaurant La Fiorentina by De’ Medici hosted a special opening party. The charismatic owner, Brigitte Pigani, offered

more than 100 guests a welcome drink and home-made Italian tapas. Meanwhile the British rock legend Mel Williams entertained the crowd with songs from the Rolling Stones, Rod Stewart, Joe Cocker and many more. For information and reservation visit their Facebook page or call Brigitte on 609 516 526.

Apart from beef however, you can enjoy chicken, lamb cutlets, rack of ribs, even a burger made from the finest meat but some of the seafood dishes really stand out. We shared a whole Thai style grilled Sea Bass, with papaya salad

served with Nam Jim sauce and it literally fell apart - we could have asked for the fish to be filleted but were adventurous and stuck to the whole fish which was easy to remove and flesh was really tasty. Having enjoyed so much, we had to give the great range of desserts a miss but will be returning to enjoy another meal at the Oak Garden & Grill sooner rather than later especially as they have a number of great deals for early diners which can be found on their website at https://oakgardenan dgrill.com.

RICKY MARTIN: Is all set to tour Spain. RICKY MARTIN begins a 10-date tour of Spain on August 14. The Puerto Rican born singer, with a Spanish Grandmother, has always felt a great connection with the country. “Spain is a country with which I share many memories and strong ties born of my roots and the love they have given me since I first visited.” Martin’s career started at a young age, by nine years old he had appeared in more than 10 commercials in his own country, and at 13 recorded his first record. Five of his teenage years were spent as a member of the group Menudo, but he

left in 1989 to concentrate on his solo career. In 1991 the first of many albums he recorded during the following years in Spanish was released, then in 1994 he was persuaded to move to Los Angeles to appear in TV soap operas including General Hospital. In 1995 he returned to music, releasing the album ‘A Medio Vivir.’ One of the tracks, ‘Maria’ was released as a single that reached number 1 throughout Europe. The beginning of the Latin explosion which took over the music industry towards the end of the 90’s was attributed to the enormous worldwide success of ‘La Vi-

da Loca’ and later ‘She Bangs.’ It is hardly surprising that there is a great demand for tickets at all the venues for this forthcoming tour. Dates for the tour are as follows: Thurs August 16, 6pm Marenostrum Castle Park, Fuengirola. Wed August 22. 8pm Ciudad Deportivo, Guillermo Amor, Benidorm. Thurs August 23. 7.30pm Recinto de Conciertos Del Ferial de Almeria. Almeria. Prices start at €75 depending on the location. Tickets can be purchased from Ticketmaster.es.

Santana back on coast THE Latin rock legend Carlos Santana returns to Spain this year in a special one-night appearance at the Marenostrum in Fuengirola on August 9. Santana, one of a handful of stars that revolutionised the music scene in the late 60’s and survived nearly five decades of ever-evolving sound will yet again bring his unique melodies to a captivated audience at the ancient fortress. It appears that at 71 years of age, there is no slowing down for the musical genius who can diverse from Latin twangs to indie pop, crafting out a multigenerational fan base so many artistes yearn to aspire to. The man who has sold over 100 million albums, won 10 Grammy awards and was inducted into the rock & roll hall of fame in 1998 is still at the top of his game. Part of his Divination Tour, the concert will feature new songs from the 2017 Power of Love album - an album produced with Cindy Blackman and the Isley Brothers, celebrating the sounds of funk, soul, blues and pop; covers from iconic 60’s soul artist Marvin Gaye as well as his signature songs over the decades. The show starts at 11pm, doors open at 6pm Tickets are available online at marenostrumpark.com, El Corte Ingles and Viagogo.com.

OPINION & COMMENT

Out of the comfort zone A two-letter word

Cassandra Nash A weekly look

SPAIN’S legal profession is ‘perplexed and uncertain’ over the government’s proposal to define any sexual act without a definite ‘yes’ as an offence. They argue that there are many ‘explicit or tacit’ ways of manifesting consent including gestures. They don’t get it, do they? There is only one way of manifesting consent and that entails saying Si. If she (or he) says Si, it’s consensual sex. If she (or he) doesn’t, it isn’t.

- and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene

WELCOME to the real world, Partido Popular, to the world of primaries where party members decide who will be Den Mother or Scout Master. Being the PP it doesn’t quite work that way, as card-carriers choose the candidates and delegates decide between the top two, but it’s a step away from the direct nominations of the past. That’s how Jose Maria Aznar and Mariano Rajoy both got the job and it’s no secret that this is the system the PP’s upper echelons would prefer. Meanwhile Mariano Rajoy, expresident of the Spanish government and current Property Registrar in Santa Pola, supposedly wanted the PP’s secretary general Dolores de Cospedal and former vice-president Soraya Saenz de Santamaria to present a single list that would have been automatically okayed at the

Vain hope, as the two women dislike each other intensely and ambitious Pablo Casado popped up to spoil the plan anyway. The direction that the PP takes now remains to be seen and it’s no surprise that Rajoy and others should have wanted more of the same.

Harder to forgive IN the past Juan Carlos I represented everything that could be a good in a monarchy. Appointed by Franco as his successor, he led Spain away from dictator-

ship towards democracy. That’s some legacy but one that he dilapidated in later life. No one was bothered that he had a mistress or mistresses and it was an open secret for many years that he and Queen Sophia lived separate lives. Breaking his hip while shooting elephants accompanied by maitress-entitre Corinna zu Sayn-Wittgenstein at the height of Spain’s economic crisis was harder to forgive and precipitated his 2014 abdication. Tapes have now emerged where Corinna talks about alleged commissions that Juan Carlos earned by brokering international deals and registering properties in her name in Monaco

and Morocco. She also maintained that Juan Carlos’s lawyer in Switzerland, Dante Canonica, created a money-laundering infrastructure for him. Dante Canonica! What a name! If there were a Spanish-speaking Damon Runyon he would have invented a lawyer named Dante Canonica. The tragedy is that if Juan Carlos was once the epitome of what a king should be, today he embodies all that he shouldn’t.

So Sari if you missed it!!

by Nicole King MY dear friend Estelle ‘physio’ suggested we meet up and go for Sunday lunch and being rather partial to a typical Sunday lunch (and Estelle of course) I was delighted. We met up in the Boulevard and walked up one of the San Pedro side streets and into a very non-descript Indian restaurant. Apparently for Estelle curry is what ‘one’ eats on a Sunday, if born and raised in Malaysia that is! Putting my Yorkshire pudding and gravy taste buds aside I did enjoy my lunch; the food was good and the company excellent. Even so I probably wouldn’t ever have returned to said Indian restaurant, unless in the area and suggested by Estelle or starving with nothing else open. Or so I thought until I received an invitation to a Bollywood event in this very same place, the Bombay Grill. The evening was being organised by Sami Stapley, a lovely lady I’ve had the pleasure of meeting whilst out and about several times: the first when Vanessa Van Camp organised the charity event to raise

appropriation of public funds. Spain’s public prosecutor and the judge Pablo Llarena are hopping mad because that means he can only be tried for that and not sedition and rebellion as they want. Whatever Puigdemont has done amounts to both but the accusations unfairly reinforce the distorted vision of a Spain that has not changed since Franco, or possibly Isabel la Catolica. Llarena and the rest of them should swallow their pride and get Puigdemont for misappropriation. After all, they got Al Capone for tax evasion and it’s the end, not the means, that matters.

Dressed for the Bollywood night. funds and awareness for Pablo González Almagro, a little lad from Marbella who suffers from Mastocytosis. I don’t go out often after work unless perhaps for a charity event but being something different and having become hooked to the Bollywood beat in the movie Slum Dog Million-

aire and to support Sami, I booked a table. Upon arrival we were wrapped in Saris and later decorated with mehndi henna designs on our hands, both courtesy of Aruna Shaw. I began to see the restaurant in a more authentic and welcoming light and the food did seem tastier; this could also be due to

the fact that I knew I was going for Indian food this time so my taste buds were suitably prepared! Thanks to the amazing musical talents of Ricky Persell the entertainment was non-stop and impressive from the get-go! I’d never met him or heard of him before but as it turns out he’s really talented, an ex-mem-

ber of The Fortunes and a good friend of Sami’s, hence this one-off performance for us! His song choices were superb; completely different to what we usually hear and very varied in genre. He was also a very adept sax player and guitarist! The ‘pièce de résistance’ however had to be the amazing Bollywood dancers from the Chand Taari Group from Málaga: Nadeeva and Esalim. These two beautiful young women jumped and bopped vigorously to the rhythm in a spectacular show and the pure force of their joyous energy permeated the room and everyone there! They didn’t stop smiling the whole time, which was equally as fascinating and mesmerising and what a fun way to get in shape! I have to say that I am really looking forward to the next Bollywood event even if it’s at the same restaurant but what I’d really like, if we can get enough of us together, is to ask the dance teacher to come down to Marbella now and then and teach us a thing or two! Anyone interested? If so, please let me know!! MiMarbel laRTVM@gmail.com. @marbellanow www.marbellanowtv.com

The range of products is wide and includes glass curtains which means that the outside is immediately inside no matter what the weather, and thanks to their expertise they are able to install them in the

trickiest of places and able to move panels around corners in most cases. Standard panels are made from 10mm toughened glass to EU standard and one of the main advantages of glass curtains is after fitting

they will still leave you with your panoramic view. Glass Technical Systems can also manufacture the sys-

tem with double glazed panels for a more weathertight seal and are more than happy to take on projects in commercial properties. The company makes aluminium doors and windows to suit all pockets, ranging from the standard window systems up to thermal break profiles of the highest quality, tilt and turn, elevating sliding patio doors for extra large doors. Many people like the concept of a clear roof in a particu-

How best to garden in the summer heat GRAEME TYRRELL THE sweltering Mediterranean midsummer days are not the time to be out working in the garden. The Spanish did not have the afternoon siesta to be lazy, rather it was a clever way to rest during the most difficult time to work outside. An afternoon rest enabled staying up late at night and getting up early in the morning to enjoy the best parts of the summer days. In summer, most outdoor gardening and farm work in Spain is done in the early morning from first light until midday. After that it is time to freshen up and prepare for lunch and a siesta. The siesta gives a much needed rest in the hot and humid afternoons. When I first came to Spain I would work through the afternoon but soon found out that it is so exhausting. It is far better to work in the cooler mornings, and if necessary the evening, than attempt to

CLEVER, NOT LAZY: For best results harvest in the cool. work in the summer afternoon heat. The best plan for sustainable gardening though is to have all the main work done before summer and wait for autumn to do anything else major during the cooler seasons. In this way the garden can be a refuge to visit and enjoy in summer with only basic maintenance and harvesting of produce to be done at the most appropriate time to enjoy the work. I find any watering is best done in the evening as the

water applied has time to soak into the soil and potting mixes in containers more deeply overnight. Morning applications can evaporate quickly before having the chance to penetrate. Other priorities can mean that it is not always possible to water when it is the ideal time so applying a minimum amount of water is worthwhile to save your plants no matter what time of day. If you need to water during the midday period, you will need to be careful to ap-

ply water to the soil rather than the foliage and make sure that the water you are applying is about the natural air temperature. Hoses can have extremely hot water when first turned on if they are stored in the sun and some undergroundstored water can be quite cold. These extremes are not good for your plants. Make sure the water you apply is a suitable temperature and if not find a way to correct the water temperature such as using a watering can to regulate it. To me, the morning is the best time to harvest any fruit and vegetables that may be ready in summer. The cooler overnight temperatures seem to freshen most produce and most are crisper and turgid. If you wait until the sun gets hot they are much more limp and softer and often loose some of their flavour. Most flowers are at their best in the morning. The Day lilies have done especially well this year so I collect them to decorate the house

for the day and to add to the salad. After that, the rest of the day is to enjoy the summer by finding places to keep cool and enjoy a afternoon siesta.

Nick Horne The Rich Pick Freelance correspondent, London, England MINUTE Repeaters and the World Time function have played a pivotal role in the portfolio of Patek Philippe’s complicated time pieces. The repeater is a complication in a mechanical watch or clock that audibly chimes the hours and often minutes at the press of a button. With its chiming watches the Geneva manufacture has defined the benchmark for decades with their exceptional acoustic quality. Patek’s World Time watches with cloisonne enamelled dials are legendary too; they are among the most coveted timepieces at auctions worldwide. In the Ref 5531 World Time Minute Repeater, the engineers in Geneva merged these two complications for the first time in Patek Philippe’s history and in an unprecedented manner: the time is always struck as indicated by the hour and minute hands for the time zone represented by the city aligned with the 12 o’clock position. In short the Repeater chimes the time accurately to the second at its current actual location. The select owners of a World Time Repeater want to see the time in all 24 time zones of the world at a glance. Now, for the first time in horological history, time is sounded acoustically and simultaneously.

www.euroweeklynews.com

FEATURE

The Lords of time Hitherto minute Repeaters with the World Time function were only able to chime home time as previously defined with the crown because the two complications operated independently from one another. An acoustic local time indication requires the World Time mechanism display to be mechanically coupled with the chiming mechanism. Two highly complicated mechanisms merged and contained within a volume just 8.5 millimetres high and barely 32 millimetres across, consisting of 462 precise components and 45 jewels. The 18-carat gold case is fitted with a crystal sapphire, crystal display back as a show window to view the watchmaking artistry

revealing the chamfered bridges with Geneva striping, the guilloched mini rotor in 22carat gold and the gold-plated Calatrava cross cover on the centrifugal governor of the chiming mechanism. The view is unforgettable. The Central European time zone is represented not by Paris, but rather by Geneva, on the city disk to emphasise the Lac Leman theme of the dial as was already the case with Patek Philippe’s World Time watches introduced to mark the 175th anniversary of manufacture in 2014. A small work of art occupies the centre of the dial. A cloisonne enamel depiction of the Lavaux wine-growing region with a lateen-rigged boat that has set sail. The enameller requires two weeks to complete each miniature work of art. Just 10 World Time Minute Repeaters will be manufactured, attached to the wrist with straps of alligator leather, hand stitched, chocolate brown and with a foldover 18-carat gold clasp. POA.

Let me know what you think. Jason Vasconi, CDT, CDTA, PDTI, JSDT1 We met on Sunday night and to my delight I also met Barbara De Groodt, owner at From the Heart Dog Training, Salinas, California area. Barbara is a delight; she certainly knows the canine industry inside out and is full of laughter. It was my pleasure to meet this one-off lady. We had a great night, when I left them I had learned much from them and have not laughed like this for years. So what is canine socialisation? And who is Dick Russell?

All those involved in the UK canine industry really have to thank the late Barbara Woodhouse who, in the 1960’s-70’s, introduced dog training with her famous phrase ‘walkies,’ and in my opinion Barbara a pioneer. Prior to Barbara Woodhouse, 90 per cent of dogs were yard/garden dogs living outside, most

not even in a kennel. About 25 years ago I was conducting a school in Fuengirola with a class of about 40 people and I had two dogs that wanted to fight. One was a Rottweiler and the other a standard white poodle. I could not allow this to continue, as one can imagine people with small dogs were petrified and it meant that

I would have to ask the owners to attend one of my other classes for large dogs. Next meeting, I asked the owners of these two dogs to stay behind when everyone had gone home. We then went to a very large field area and I explained that I was going to try to get these two dogs to be friendly. I muzzled both - not too tightly - and asked the owners to stand with me and promise not to speak or call their dogs. The hunter went off first and as I suspected chased after the Rottweiler, which after five minutes was laying on the ground panting whilst the hunter was jumping around. At this stage I removed the muzzles and then they sniffed at each other and became friendly. We then went for a walk and I invited the owners to call and praise their dogs. From that day on they never fought again and always came back when called. I am an Honorary member of the British Police Canine Ser-

vices and about 25 years ago George Grayson, a big respected name in the canine world, and I headed the police forum which was set up to enable police officers to exchange ideas. There were so many characters and friendly fights but one guy, Dick Russell, did not believe in ‘that’ mad dogman in Spain letting dogs off leads to fight. A few months later Dick had obtained a film of my work and announced he owed me a public apology. He was using my method, said it changed dogs and that I had brought a new ethos into the dog world. Dick changed his school to free socialisation only. My visitor Jason was one of the breed and simply wanted to meet me and ask how I developed the system. What a great man you are Jason, and again thank you for travelling to meet me. I have written this article for the public is to impress upon you the importance of socialisation, the younger the better.

Electric car sales growth THE first six months of the year saw relatively poor growth in sales of electric cars, as a lack of charging points started to hit the expansion of the sector. Even though registrations of electric cars increased by 33 per cent across Europe, when compared to the 54 per cent rise in the same period of 2017 it can be seen as a disappointing result. Although there was relatively strong growth in Europe’s biggest market, Germany, poorer figures from the UK and other countries dragged the total down. The UK saw 10 per cent growth compared to Germany’s 64 per cent, with Spain recording 45 per cent more sales of EVs and plug-in hybrids.

This is a situation President Trump sees as unfair and if talks fail, the prospect of having to pay higher tariffs could hit the Spanish car industry hard. Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump said car tariffs are ‘the big one’ when it comes to US-EU trade disputes.

Spain is the second largest car manufacturer in the world and it also has a significant autoparts sector.

MOTORING Classic Car Club of Andalucía

www.euroweeklynews.com

CCCA - Hot and sticky but still busy! HE hot weather really seems to have arrived now but still motoring enjoyment continues. Both the Classic Car Club of Andalucia and the Jaguar Enthusiasts Club have held excellent and very successful events this month. Both these events have been organised by Ian and Carol Giles and both have been incredibly well supported despite the heat. The CCCA event was covered in our last issue but the JEC run took place last weekend. Starting near Marbella, Venta Peligrino was the scene for quite a display of Jaguars of varying ages and models and, after enjoying coffee and breakfast, the cars set off at 11.00am to head up the main A-355 past Ojen and Monda. The first challenge here was to avoid the enthusiastically manned speed check outside the Shanti Som wellness centre. Luckily, no Jaguars were caught out! The route headed past Coin and on to the A-357 Campillos road, passing the exits for Pizarra and Alora. A slot off right took the cars towards Venta Los Conejitos and through the winding, beautiful, and rarely used, road to Caratraca where a planned coffee stop was taken at Venta Trillo. Back then to the main road and on towards Ardales before circumnavigating the town around the small perimeter road and heading towards El Burgo, turning off to climb the superb road over the top to Casarabonela. A most enjoyable stop had been arranged in the cool woods just before Casarabonela to sip a glass or two of Cava supplied by the organisers. On down through Casarabonela and the quick but slippery road to Alozaina where the cars headed for Guaro and Monda, diving through the little town and enjoying the final, fast descent to Marbella. Here the route would end with a fabulous lunch at Restaurante Cascada, just behind the Crematorium above the La Cañada shopping centre where a welcoming chilled glass of Cava awaited the rather hot participants! La Cascada restaurante used to be called ‘Nueva Kaskada’ and was always very good. The new owners, who took over in March are certainly doing an excellent job and produced some fabulous food together with first class, professional service that was much appreciated and enjoyed by all JEC members. I am quite sure that many of them will be returning to sample the superb culinary delights on offer there quite soon!

CLASSIC CAR CLUB: Has held very successful events this month.

Concours D’Elegance, Magna Cafe, Nueva Andalucia Next event on the motoring calendar is the Magna Cafe Concours D’Élegance this Thursday evening. The Magna Cafe is just outside Nueva Andalucia, near Marbella, and is an annual event that has grown and grown and become better each year. There are already around 110 cars entered, including my own 1963 Jaguar Mk.2 The French term ‘Concours d’ Elegance’ means ‘Competition of Elegance’ and thus the event will abide by the French Concours rules and the cars will be primarily rated on the visual impact they make; the so-called ‘wow’ factor. The judges will rate each car by its style, beauty and elegance, which will account for 50 per cent of the points. The remaining 50 per cent of the score will be based on Condition, Authenticity, Restoration, Rarity and Historical Importance. Entrants will be classified as follows, and there will be prizes for each category: Classic Cars: Pre-1950, 1950-1970 and 19701990, Modern Cars and Supercars and also Street Class (Wash & Shine) There will be first, second and third prizes for each class. Following the initial awards, the Winner in each class will then be judged again for the Best of Show award. Judges will include the CCCA’s own Jo Ramirez. CCCA F1 Evening, Tuesday, August 7 You may have seen an exciting German Grand

Prix on TV this weekend, won by Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton. If you have an interest in Formula 1, do come along to the CCCA F1 evening at Treetops Restaurant in El Chaparral Golf Club, Mijas Costa. The evening will be a ‘Forum’ style event with F1 guests Pat Symonds and Jo Ramirez. Former Ferrari race engineer to Michael Schumacher, Sky TV commentator, and latterly Williams Martini F1 Chief Technical Officer, Pat Symonds, will give a short talk on the state of Formula 1 as it is now. Pat was responsible for the restructuring of the Williams GP team in 2014 and 2015 and was a central figure with Benetton and then Renault when Fernando Alonso and Renault won back-toback constructors and drivers world titles in 2005 and 2006. Also on the team will be CCCA member and former McLaren team boss, Jo Ramirez. Both, along with host Ian Giles, will answer questions, Forum style, from the floor. The evening will be open to non members who will have to pay only a €10 entrance fee. Dinner will then be served on the beautiful terrace at ‘Treetops’ and will be all inclusive with wines etc for only €25. Do let Ian Giles know, ian@iangiles.com, if you would like to attend. After that, the next event of interest will be the CCCA Classic Car run on Saturday, August 11. Until the next time.

Further information on Classic Car Club of Andalucia events can be found on the Club’s website www.cccandalucia.com. Membership of this vibrant club is open to anyone owning a genuine classic car here in Spain. Saca tu coche clásico del garaje y diviértete con el.

Hamilton storms to victory

A N D Y M U R R AY i s n o w the British men’s number 23 after he dropped to 839 in the world rankings following his injury problems. The former world number one fell 690 places after he pulled out of Wimbledon. The 31-year-old Scot had hip surgery in January after being out of action since last year’s Wimbledon. He has only played three matches since then, winning one at Eastbourne last

starting 14th following a hydraulic failure in qualifying. Hamilton began to carve into the advantage of the three leading drivers - Vettel, his Ferrari teammate Kimi Raikkonen and Bottas - as chaos erupted down the field. As the rain became heavier, Vettel lost control at the Sachs Kurve hairpin in Hockenheim, in front of tens of thousands of his home fans, bringing out the safety car. The four-time champion swore over the radio as he absorbed the damage to his title hopes.

BARCELONA have made more history before their season has even started, as their Spanish Super Cup showdown with Sevilla has been switched to Morocco. Spain’s annual clash between the La Liga champions and Copa del Rey winners is moving out of the country for the first time, and changing from two legs to a one-off clash. Barca won the domestic double last term and the match at the 40,000-capacity Stade Ibn Batouta in Tangier on August 12 is against the side they routed 5-0 in the Spanish Cup final. The Catalans have contested the Super Cup for

Vettel had been cruising to victory ahead of Hamilton’s teammate Valterri Bottas until rain started to fall with about 25 laps to go.

He also hopes to play Masters level events in Toronto and Cincinnati before the US Open, which begins on August 27.

Team Sky rivalry gears Credit: @GeraintThomas86/Twitter

Bellew and Usyk square up RIDING HIGH: Geraint Thomas will not give up the yellow jersey easily. achievements, while Thomas has never placed better than 15th overall. Nevertheless, Team Sky has never dealt with a leadership dilemma this deep into a Tour. Geraint Thomas has the yellow jersey and is showing no signs of tailing off in the last stages of the race. At 32 years of age he will be

aware that such an opportunity will not come around many more times, and it is interesting that Team Sky have not yet designated Froome as their main man. It may well be a results-based decision, and as Thomas is out of contract this autumn, he could be forgiven for riding for himself. Credit: matt_white79

WITH Geraint Thomas continuing to show his world class ability in this year’s Tour de France, the question of him going for the outright win ahead of teammate Chris Froome is getting louder and louder. Thomas retained the overall lead going into this final week, but has been careful not to say anything that will rock Team Sky’s boat. Thanks in part to its massive budget that lures top riders, Team Sky has become expert at managing intra-team rivalries. Last year, Mikel Landa appeared to be the strongest climber in the Tour and hinted strongly that he wished he had the freedom to ride his own race. Of course there was also Froome’s obvious frustration in 2012, when he had to give top billing to Bradley Wiggins when he felt he was better in the mountains. Froome is now a four-time Tour winner going after historic

BRITON Tony Bellew and Ukranian Oleksandr Usyk both say they are ‘ready’ to fight each other. Usyk, 31, became the first man to hold all four world cruiserweight titles: WBO, WBC, WBA and IBF, when he beat Murat Gassiev on Saturday to win the inaugural World Boxing Super Series. After the fight, Bellew tweeted: ‘Usyk I was born ready. Let’s get this done.’ The Olympic 2012 gold medallist, who has won all of his 15 professional fights, replied: ‘I’m also ready.’ Bellew, 35, has beaten compatriot David

Haye at heavyweight in his past two fights, and his promoter Eddie Hearn says talks about a fight against Usyk will take place this week. “Tony has felt fantastic up around the 15st weight and I’m not sure he will make cruiser again, but I know with Usyk’s desire to move to heavyweight it certainly wouldn’t be a dealbreaker,” he told Sky Sports. While Bellew is keen on the fight, he also has WBC lightweight champion Adonis Stevenson in his sights, who he was defeated by in 2013. “If I face him and win, I’d have beaten every man I have ever fought in a ring,” said Bellew.

Rugby World Cup Sevens 2018: All Blacks in runaway victory

THUMBS UP: New Zealand cruised to victory in San Francisco.

NEW ZEALAND became the first men’s side to win consecutive Rugby World Cup Sevens titles as they beat England 3312 in the final on Sunday. The All Blacks took a 14-0 lead in San Francisco as Sione Molia scored two tries, both converted by Kurt Baker. A Michael Ellery converted try halved the deficit at half time, before a Joseva Ravouvou score took it to 19-7. Ruaridh McConnochie hit back for England before Akuila Rokolisoa and Trael Joass secured victory.

Scotland claimed seventh place overall after Jamie Farndale scored two late tries in a 29-24 win against France, while Wales had to settle for their lowest place finish since 2001, coming 11th following a 35-12 win over Canada. This year’s tournament saw the traditional round-robin stage scrapped in favour of a single-elimination knockout from the opening round of matches. Australia were a notable first-round casualty in the men’s draw, while England’s women fell at the first hurdle in

a surprise defeat by Ireland. “We’re getting a lot of positive feedback from fans about the drama of knockout,” said World Rugby Chief Executive Brett Gosper, as 102,000 fans attended the event over the three days of competition. “It makes each game exciting. It can be brutal for teams, but sport’s brutal.” England head coach Simon Amor said he was “pleased” with how his players adapted to the new structure, but captain Tom Mitchell claims he is “not totally sold on the new format.”
