Rape data Attack ‘every six hours’ By Joe Gerrard ONE woman is raped somewhere in Spain every six hours on average, according to a report from the country’s Interior Ministry. There were a total of 788 rapes in Spain from January to June this year. The Inter i o r M i n i s t r y ’s r e p o r t showed the rate was a 28.5 per cent increase on levels seen at the same time last year. The total number of complaints of sexual assaults more broadly stood at 5,731 for the first half of this year. The same figure for January to June last year was 5,083, an increase of almost 13 per cent. Yolanda Besteiro, Chairperson of the Federation of the Progressive Women of Spain, said Spanish society
often blamed women for attacks rather than perpetrators. “According to our culture if an attack occurs it is because the woman has not known how to defend herself, or has dressed in a certain way or gotten into the wrong area,” Besteiro said.
“Despite the increase in the number of complaints we barely know the tip of the iceberg of the phenomenon of sexual assaults as only around 30 per cent of violations are reported,” she added. Government statistics have also shown that a total of 950 women have been killed in gender violencerelated incidents since records began in 2003.

FRUITY: La Tomatina takes place in Buñol every August.
Seeing red
THIS coming Wednesday sees the start of one of Spain’s best-known and most unusual fiestas, the La Tomatina in the Valencia region. Revellers descend on the town of Buñol on the last Wednesday of August every year for the festival which involves throwing tomatoes at other participants. It is now so popular that since 2013 it has been ticketed. It was estimated that about 145,000 kilos of tomatoes were lobbed by attendees in 2015’s edition of the fiesta. La Tomatina began in 1945 when young people at the Giants and Big-Heads figure parade in Buñol caused a musician to fall over.
The musician flew into a fit of rage and spectators soon joined in. There was a market stall with fruit and vegetables in the area and those nearby raided it and began pelting other festival goers before police broke them up. The following year young people returned to the festival but this time they brought their own tomatoes from home. Authorities tried to crack down and in the early 1950’s it was banned altogether. This did not deter spectators who risked being arrested by taking part. Within years officials relented and the event has now become one of the best known events in Spain.

EWN online this week CONTROVERSIAL: The Valley of the Fallen divides Spanish opinion.
Visitors flock THE number of people who have visited the Valley of The Fallen mausoleum has soared following an announcement that former dictator Francisco Franco’s remains would be exhumed from it. A total of 38,269 people went to the site last month, up from 23,135 in June this year and 25,532 in July 2017 according to Spain’s heritage authority. Pedro Sanchez, Spain’s Prime Minister, announced the exhumation plans shortly after taking power in June. “After 40 years this debate has led us to a very simple conclusion, Spain cannot allow symbols which divide the Spanish,” Sanchez said. Supporters of the former dictator and his descendants have voiced opposition to the plans. Franco’s family said they would not give their permission for the exhumation. Several recent visitors to the site told Spanish media about their reasons for making the trip to the site near Madrid. Antonio Nevado, a 22-year-old law student and critic of Franco’s regime, said “morbid curiosity” had driven him to go. He added he thought the dictator’s remains should stay at the mausoleum.
“This is the country’s heritage and it should be respected,” he said. Miguel Pintor, 62, from Madrid, said he was angered by the government’s plans. “I don’t think it hurts anyone. The dead should be left in peace,” Pintor said. Others thought the government had made the right call. Christian Espert, a 30-year-old soldier from Valencia, said the move should take place because the site hurt the feelings of many Spanish people. Javier Botia, 40, from Murcia, said he did not sympathise with Franco and felt now was the time to make the move. “I feel conflicting emotions, because on the one hand it is a place that symbolises much suffering, but it also has a lot of history. “One must know the bad side of history so as not to repeat it,” he said. General Francisco Franco took power in 1939 following the victory of his rebel nationalist forces in the Civil War. The Valley of the Fallen was built by Republican and other political prisoners as a mausoleum for those who died in the conflict.

WE are now nearing the end of August madness where the streets of holiday destinations are clogged with visitors and many main roads look like the M25 on a very bad day. There are two real options for expatriate residents in Spain and both seem quite popular, either pack up your bags and go back ‘home’ for a month or two or remain, moan a bit and put up with it. There is however no doubt that the influx of visitors is good for the economy and certainly gives a number of people from all over Europe the chance to have some work in areas which otherwise would be bare of opportunities. Whilst everyone enjoys the warm weather, this year has seen a number of very hot days and for those who are travelling, the stress factors at airports have gone up considerably and this has been made even worse by regular strikes of airline pilots, long queues at immigration and even the breakdown of electronic display boards. What is important however is that despite all of the aggravation most people have got where they wanted to go eventually and more importantly in one piece. Many of the charities that assist the elderly closed their coffee mornings for August, but they continued to raise funds and to assist those in real need, but come September the charity shops will reopen and people will meet up again to chat with new friends. Loneliness can be a terrible thing especially in a foreign country, so congratulations to all those who have made it through August and are looking forward to a return to normality.

Hookers mugging male tourists by Tara Rippin YOUNG British men are being targeted and robbed by prostitutes who prowl a popular Spanish resort, with reports of similar attacks in the Costas. According to bar owners and expatriates, ‘vicious’ working
girls are making the streets of Magaluf a very dangerous place to be at night. And a former Fuengirola restaurateur, claims ‘the attacks are rife in Coasta Del Sol, but many men are too embarrassed to report it.’ In a bid to raise awareness,
residents, tourists and alleged victims are using a Facebook page dedicated to reporting crime and talk of incidents where lads have had everything, from passports to clothes, stolen. One blogger from Newport, England, wrote on the Magaluf Forum: ‘When are the police going to do something about the prostitutes. It’s no good saying don’t go out by yourself in Magaluf any more because four mates of mine were walking back to Guadalope Hotel and one still got attacked and robbed by four prostitutes.’ Simon from Rochdale, England, holidayed in the party resort with friends in June. He blogged that one of his mates had had a bit too much to drink, so four friends walked him back to his apartment. “He was still approached by a prostitute/thief,” he said: “She quickly backed off when she realised he was part of our group. I personally would not go back there because of the incidents documented and our

Apparently, the women appear as though they’re on their
own, but when they start to rob a victim and he tries to shake them off, a group of pimps pounce. It is believed the prostitutes arrive in the resort by bus from Palma. A Nigerian sex worker was charged with attempted murder in June after she attacked two tourists and two cops with a broken bottle. It has been reported she attempted to sell drugs to the holidaymakers and when they refused, she got angry. When officers of the Guardia Civil attempted to arrest her, she is said to have attacked them with a bottle, with one officer only avoiding serious injuries when his handcuff belt shielded him from the blow.

Flight fatigue by Tara Rippin HOLIDAYMAKERS destined for Mallorca were devastated after their flight was cancelled because the ‘crew was too tired.’ The easyJet flight from Belfast to Palma was called off at the last minute, leaving 146 passengers home and dry. Mother and daughter, Cornelia and Erin Dalipe, said people ‘were in tears’ after being told the plane was grounded. Speaking to a radio station in Belfast, Cornelia said there was police presence when the news was broken, even though there was no aggressive behaviour, and the crew was led out of a separate door. She said she ‘couldn’t believe what she was being told,’ pointing out that many people work 12-14 hour shifts and just get on with it. The budget airline has since apologised for the inconvenience.

And while she was hoping to fly on Monday night, another woman ‘was in tears as the next available flight for her was Tuesday night, which is a big chunk out of a one-week holiday.’ A spokeswoman for easyJet said the cancellation was ‘due to a crew issue.’ She added that every effort was made to minimise the impact of the cancellation to passengers.

Sociable Spanish by Gabriella Elkhouri A TOTAL of 25.5 million Spaniards of all ages use the internet in an average of five different media platforms. Facebook and WhatsApp are the most popular medias, accessed by 87 per cent of internet users, followed by YouTube with 69 per cent, Instagram accounting for 45 per cent, and Twitter preferred by 48 per cent of users. The findings follow an annual Study of Social Net-
works in Spain 2018, prepared by the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB), an association that represents the country’s advertising and digital communication sector. According to the analysis, 46 year olds and those under 30 represent 39 per cent of the total social media users. Some 85 per cent of the internet users are aged between 16 and 65. The level of satisfaction of Spanish internet users with
different social networks is not always proportional to the number of users. On average internet users spend one hour a day on social platforms. The youngest users, the 16 year olds spending 10 minutes more. WhatsApp is used for the most length of time at one hour and 33 minutes, followed by Spotify (one hour 27) and platforms for creating videos and listening to music (one hour 12).

Bank: GDP data positive
GROWING: The BBVA predicted a GDP rise. SPAIN’S Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is set to register an increase of 0.7 per cent for the months of July, August and September, according to predictions from a major bank. The forecast, from BBVA’s research department, is at the lower end of estimates for Spain’s GDP in the third
quarter of 2018. Estimates previously went as high as 0.9 per cent. The bank’s predictions could mean that estimates of a growth of 2.9 per cent in GDP for the whole of this year may have to be revised down. Inflation estimates from the researchers forecast a
slower rate of increase than those seen in previous months. They have estimated that it will stand at around 2.2 per cent for August by the end of the month. Unemployment levels are due to continue falling. The number of people out of work could be 1.1 fewer at
the end of September than it was at the end of the second quarter, according to BBVA. Researchers at the bank working with their MICABBVA model made the estimates based on about 20 per cent of the data available for the third quarter. Forecasters said statistics for the machinery and equipment, non-residential construction and public consumption had helped to buoy output. They estimated there would be a growth in those sectors of 5.7 per cent, 1.8 per cent and 0.7 per cent respectively during the third quarter. Researchers added slowdowns of 0.2 per cent in
household consumption and 0.3 per cent in residential consumption had contributed to the lower than expected figure. Consumer spending and expectations indicators, labour market data and spending plans in the 2018 budget suggested private consumption could reach levels seen at the start of this year. There are concerns that slowdowns in machinery and equipment particularly could mean that growth in those sectors flatlines at current levels which could hamper growth, BBVA said. Residential investment is expected to grow but at a slower rate than was seen in
the second quarter of this year. Exports are expected to rise back into positive figures following a fall during April, May and June. The fall in exports far exceeded that of imports, opening up a yawning gap between the two which BBVA forecasts will shrink again. Gross Domestic Product refers to the total amount of output across all sectors of the economy during a given time period. It is one of the leading measures of economic growth used by economists, businesspeople and those in finance to estimate the health of economies and to predict future trends.

can count on the Spaniards of Belgium,” the caption to the video said. The flags are covered by th e lo g o o f th e M a la ga based ham company Pig de Montes. The company was previously called Pig Demo n t u n til a co mp la int c a me in fro m th e le a de r Catalan President’s lawyer and its logo was a cartoon of Puigdemont with pig-like features. The crosses also featured Spanish flags crossed in the style of the yellow ribbons which have become a symbol of the pro Catalan independence movement. The reason for the protest was not stated on Twitter but the account appears to b elo n g to a p ro -S p anis h

The former Catalan preside nt re ma ins in B e lgium following Spain’s decision to drop a European and International warrant for his arrest after German courts ruled out his extradition on re be llion c ha rge s . The charges are in connection w ith la s t ye a r ’s inde pe ndence referendum and declaration. It is unc le a r how long Puigdemont intends to stay in Spain. He previously said he would like to return to Cataluña but he would still face arrest if he sets foot on Spanish soil due to a national warrant still being active.
THOUSANDS of protestors turned out in Bilbao to call on the Spanish government to raise minimum pension payouts its 2019 budget. Elderly demonstrators were joined by their children and in some cases their grandchildren of the rally which took place last Monday during the Basque region’s Semana Grande festival. Around 25,000 people attended and protested outside government buildings including the headquarters of the regional government, according to the organisers. Protestors have demanded that the government in Madrid set a minimum level of pensions at €1,080 per month. Carlos Ruiz, a member of the Pentionistak Martxan group which helped organise the rally, said the protestors were speaking for pensioners throughout Spain. “We do not want the government to forget about this now that they are setting the limits for public spending,” Ruiz said. Those demonstrating shouted chants including: “Today’s young people are the pensioners of tomorrow,” and “Decent pensions, not corrupt and no Swiss bank accounts either.” The demands of the protestors range from the raising of minimum payouts to the repeal of pen-

sion reforms introduced under the previous conservative Partido Popular (PP) government. Organisers also said they wanted to move towards the equalisation of pension rates for those part of Spain’s General Social Security Scheme. The demonstrators have also been critical of the Basque regionalist PNV party due to it defending the introduction of private elements to public pensions. Those who attended Monday’s march have not ruled out further demonstrations. Demonstrators in favour of pension increases have taken to the streets of towns and cities across the Basque Country several times this year. There were protests there and across Spain when the previous PP government under Mariano Rajoy announced pension increases of a fraction of a per cent before its ousting in June. Many of those demonstrating were also involved in trade union protests during the Basque region’s industrial decline in the 1970’s and 1980’s. Some claim this is the reason why the region has now become a hotbed for protests. The average Basque pensioner is paid about €1,115.60 in state retirement aid in comparison to the Spanish average of €930.27, according to government data.

Brawl probe
23 - 29 August 2018 NATIONAL POLICE officers have begun investigating a street fight which broke out in Estepona last week. Officers said they have identified those involved from footage of the brawl which surfaced online and in the media in the days following the incident. The video appeared to show people getting out of a car at a junction in the town and confronting others there. A fight then breaks out between those present. Several punches are thrown and onlookers break up the brawl about four times before those involved flee. FOOTAGE: Video clip of brawl in Estepona is circulating online.
Beach death A BATHER has died while swimming in the sea off the Fuente de La Salud in Benalmadena. Emergency services said they received a call out at around 3.15pm last Tuesday alerting them to trouble the 50-year-old was having in the water. Local Police, Guardia Civil and National Police officers were despatched to the stretch of coastline along
with medical staff and coastguards. Emergency services sources said the swimmer was dead when they arrived. An investigation has been opened to establish the exact circumstances in which he died. DROWNED: A 50-yearold man died while bathing off the coast of Benalmadena.
Emergency landing report A SMALL jet plane which touched down at Sevilla shortly after taking off from Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport had to make the emergency landing due to hydraulic problems, officials said. Spain’s civil aviation authority (CIAIAC) stated in its report on the incident that the Airjetsul Learjet45XR, with five people on board, was
bound for Cascais near Lisbon when problems began. The flight itself took place last month (July). Data from the plane’s log showed the pilot and co-pilot became alarmed after the aircraft’s hydraulics system started to lose a ‘significant’ amount of pressure. The system controls parts of planes such as the brakes and wing flaps.
The aircraft was around 11 kilometres east of Sevilla’s airport when the crew decided to abort the flight to Portugal and make an emergency landing. Authorities said in their report on the incident that the landing was made successfully. There was no damage to the aircraft and the two crew members and three passengers were unharmed, the report added.

School results day EXCLUSIVE By Joe Gerrard A BRITISH-BASED Spanish institute has told Euro Weekly News it is encouraged by the number of expatriates’ children in Spain opting to learn the language. The Cervantes Institute in London made the comments following A-Level and GCSE results day last week and the week before respectively. Initial data suggests the gap between entries for Spanish and French A-Levels generally is continuing to narrow, with the latter currently the most popular foreign language studied by college students. Igancio Peyro, the Director of the Cervantes Institute, told this newspaper that it was “really encouraging” to see British students in Spain making an effort to learn the language. “Spanish continues to be an important language for young people today, particularly as it is set to become Britain’s most popular foreign lan-

Peyro added there was a variety of benefits that come could from studying Spanish at GCSE and A-Level. “Learning the language will help British students to integrate, meet new people and provide advantages later in life, certainly from a career perspective. By studying Spanish they are taking their first steps towards becoming bilingual,” Peyro said. The comments come as data
showed Spanish looked set to overtake French as the most studied foreign language at ALevel. French exam entries have declined since 1997 from 21,300 to around 8,300. Spanish entries have grown to about 7,600 during the same period. Chinese overtook German for the first time this year in terms of exam entries, with the latter language having also declined to about 3,300.
Pigs peak at 50 million ACCORDING to figures released by Spain’s environment ministry, the country’s pigs outnumber its human population for the first time. There are now 50 million pigs, an increase of around nine million since 2013, while the number of people stands at 46.5 million. Moreover, there are growing concerns about the environmental impact of a farming industry that produced more than four million tons of pork
products and generated €6 billion last year. Livestock is the fourth largest producer of greenhouse gas emissions after transport, electricity generation and industry, and the soaring pig population is a key factor. In a country like Spain which is frequently affected by drought, pig farming consumes huge quantities of water. With each pig drinking 15
litres a day, the industry uses more water than the cities of Sevilla, Alicante and Zaragoza combined. Environmentalists also say that nitrates from the animals’ waste products are beginning to contaminate ground water. But with Spaniards consuming around 21kg of pork each year and the nation’s love of the meat dating back thousands of years, environmentalists face an uphill battle to bring about change.

by Tara Rippin A TOUGH stance is being taken to tackle anti-social drunken behaviour on the Balaeric islands in the form of tightening the laws on serving free alcohol in all-inclusive complexes. So is it only a matter of time before the trend takes hold on the Costas? Time is being called on free alcohol in all-inclusive hotels in Mallorca. As long awaited proposals by the Balaeric government near completion, the days of downing booze ‘gratis’ are numbered. Tourism chiefs have been promising for months to crackdown on all-inclusive hotels in the holiday resorts which are being blamed for anti-social drunken behaviour and socalled ‘uncivic tourism.’ Now, the controversial proposals are in the final stages of drafting and, when implemented, will mean a tough new stance on all aspects of ‘everything in’ hotels, including free and unlimited booze at the bars. Guests who want a drink on
Booze ban ALL-INCLUSIVE: A tough new stance will be taken on unlimited alcohol. any complex will have to be served by a waiter and, if it is outside the dining room at lunch or during evening meals, they will be required to pay. The waiter-only service applies to the dining room and anywhere in the hotel complex at any time of the day. Guests will have to summon a waiter, place their order, wait for the drinks and then pay the bill (unless eating in the restaurant). There will be no free access to beers or alcoholic drinks in
fridges. And the stance goes even further by imposing extra rules on all-inclusive hotels. According to sources, they will only get a licence if their restaurant is capable of dealing with 70 per cent of its clients at the same time when full. This measure apparently aims to avoid crowds and queues in restaurants. The tourism department is also planning to prohibit single-use plastic plates, cutlery and cups which all-inclusive
hotels use as a matter of course to avoid washing up, as well as for safety reasons around the pool and garden areas. The Balearic government says this is not environmentally-friendly and is looking at alternative options. A spokesman for the Ministry of Tourism said ‘there are solutions in the market to avoid this.’ Official data suggests there are 270 all-inclusive establishments in the Balearics though that figure could be substantially more. The move will make it compulsory for such hotels to formally register with the government, rather than on a voluntary basis. The new proposals have yet to be formally presented so no timescale is known for the booze crackdown, though it is unlikely to be this summer. Time will tell whether authorities closer to home adopt similar measures.

Horror hostel attack A WOMAN from New Zealand has been attacked in a Spanish hostel, leaving her with severe injuries including a fractured skull, blood clots on the brain and internal bleeding. Agnes Wong had been travelling through the country alone when she was set upon in a Malaga hostel, and repeatedly punched and kicked in the head. A Givealittle fundraising page has been set up by her friend Erike Ng and her family has flown from Auckland to be with her. “She has no memory of the event,” wrote Erike. “She has been recovering each day and is now regaining some of her sass and stubbornness.” The Local Police are investigating the incident, along with the New Zealand Embassy.

Maria Jesus Vega, the United Nation’s Refugee spokesperson in Madrid, said earlier this year problems in the home countries of the migrants were still unresolved. “A much greater effort must be made to support integration that goes beyond exclusively providing shelter. “The reality is that the number of persecuted people fleeing conflict continues to grow every day,” she said.

Protest violence claims GIBRALTAR’S Chief Minister has met with a woman who claims she was physically assaulted during protests organised by a Spanish police union on the La Linea side of the border. Fabian Picardo said he had spoken with Erika Gonzalez, from the British enclave, and she alleged she was hit after confronting someone over damaging her car. The Chief Minister said he felt ‘anger’ and ‘regret’ over the incident and added she had the full support of Gibraltar authorities. Footage taken at the protest on Avenida Principe de Asturias, which was called by the JUSAPOL union, appeared to show a red Mercedes car driving down the road while demonstrators stand on the pavement either side waving Spanish flags.

JUSAPOL also claimed the woman had been aggressive towards the protestors and shared a photo on Twitter of a wounded hand which they alleged were bite wounds she had caused. The union added they organised the protest to demand that police officers in Andalu-

They had also protested in solidarity with officers working to combat drugs trafficking in La Linea, some of who had faced attacks from people allegedly involving in the illegal trade.

They had been called in when builders on a construction site in Guadalmina, Marbella, found what appeared to be a shell left over from Spain’s bloody Civil War. The explosive ordinance led to an emergency protocol being put in place that forced local roads to be closed.

The detonation took place at half past two in the afternoon. A blast mark of about 53 centimetres in length was left in the feria ground.

Can the community change its mind IN theory and providing they act in accordance with article 1.255 of the Spanish Civil Code, communities of owners throughout Spain are free to decide and run their communities more or less as they wish.
Article 1.255 requires that a community (or any contracting parties) may establish any covenants, clauses and conditions deemed convenient, provided that they are not contrary to the laws,
to morals or to public policy. In addition, article 18.1 of the Law of Horizontal Property, the law that governs the communities of owners throughout Spain, allows for any decision made by a community to be challenged in court when it is, a) contrary to the Spanish law or the community statutes, b) seriously detrimental to the community and to the benefit to one or several owners, c) seriously detrimental to an owner who has no legal obligation to accept that detriment or by an abuse of the law. It is quite common for a community to approve something at one meeting, only to change their minds and revoke their decision at another. For example, the community approves additional contributions from owners as a saving towards some intended future improvement. However later having looked into the situation, the community meets again,

changes their mind and cancels the project. In this case, as there is no serious detriment to any of the owners or benefits to others etc, the community is free to revoke their previous decision. However in some cases, some owners may need a little protection from the indecisive ways of their community. A simple example. The community approves at the general meeting that the owners of the first floor properties should install security bars and specify that the bars should be specially treated and then painted black. Quite reasonable, quite sensible but not especially cheap. In good faith the owners pay for the new bars to be fit-
ted as per the specifications, only to find out later that the community have changed their mind at a second general meeting and now require the bars to be installed but not specially treated and painted white. The installation probably cost the owners of the first floor properties considerable time and money so this change is understandably quite annoying. It is equally understandable that the disgruntled owners who installed the bars in good faith will want to disagree with the community’s new decision and if necessary contest it in court. Which, under article 18.1c of the law of horizontal property they can, as the article allows owners to request to have a decision annulled if it is an abuse of the community’s rights causing serious detriment to an owner or owners who have no legal obligation to suffer that detriment. Apart from the fundamental
requirements of article 1.255 which covers the actions of all communities, the right of a community to revoke an earlier decision is not specifically regulated by the Spanish Civil Code, therefore each situation if challenged in court, will have to be examined individually as to whether it is legal or not. In summary, communities of owners are permitted to act as they feel is appropriate however their actions should not be contrary to the rights proclaimed in the Spanish Civil Code and furthermore it is not acceptable for a community to revoke a decision if the revocation is seriously detrimental to owners who have acted in accordance and good faith with a previous decision approved by their community of owners. As usual, we the solicitors for Intercala Administration advise the readers of our monthly articles to seek competent advice in all matters concerning the law.
POLICE: Found the body covered in bullet wounds.
Bike shooting NATIONAL POLICE were tracing a man who shot a 34-year-old dead in an Estepona urbanisation and fled on a bike. The shooting was the second such crime on the Costa del Sol in the space of 48 hours. The previous one took place in Mijas last Friday. Emergency services said they received several calls alerting police and medical personnel at around 3.40am last Monday. Witnesses told them a wounded man was lying in the El Campanario area next to the nearby golf course. Police were despatched and arrived to find the body of the 34-year-old covered in
bullet wounds. Officers investigating the shooting have not ruled out any cause, but their initial findings suggest the killing could have been gang-related. Witness reports said it had looked as though the man had waited for the 34-yearold outside his home on the urbanisation. The same reports said the shooter had been wearing a balaclava at the time. The shooting comes as three suspects were arrested in the early hours of Saturday in connection with the Mijas killing. They were detained in Algeciras while trying to board a ferry to Morocco, police said.

Deficit talks begin SPANISH government ministers are set to meet tomorrow (Friday) in a bid to reach an agreement on spending and debt proposals for 2019 to 2021. The Council of Ministers is attempting to chart a course of deficit reduction as part of a path to financial stability. Their proposals will be tabled before the Congress of Deputies, Spain’s Parliament, once agreement between ministers has been reached. Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez’s government is expected to make similar proposals to those that were rejected in line with plans from Finance Minister Maria
by Joe Gerrard Jesus Montero, according to reports. Ministers have set proposed deficit targets for Spain’s autonomous regions of 0.3 per cent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for 2019. The figure falls to 0.1 per cent by 2020 and government is hoping regional books will be balanced by 2021, according to Spanish media. Public debt targets for the autonomous communities are expected to be 23.7 per cent, 23 per cent and 22.2 per cent of GDP for 2019, 2020 and 2021 respectively. The meeting comes as Deputies in
Congress voted down previous spending plans last month. A total of 88 Deputies, including those from the governing leftleaning Partido Socialista (PSOE), voted in favour. There were 173 votes against from the conservative Partido Popular (PP), the centrist Ciudadanos and a handful of regionalist parties. The leftist anti-austerity Unidos Podemos group and some Catalan and Valencian parties abstained. Tomorrow’s meeting will be the first Council of Ministers session since the last one on August 3 before the summer recess began.
SPANISH financial firm Bankia loaned around €180 million to house building projects in the country between January and June this year, according to company data. The figure comes as the bank had been restricted in operating in markets such as property and development financing as part of bailout conditions from the recession. Bankia said its development financing arm was one of the main parts of the business set to grow in the coming years due to home building picking up.
Construction growth slows

Company earnings THE turnover of Spanish firms has risen by 4.9 per cent since last June in comparison to the same time last year according to the National Institute for Statistic’s (INE) Business Figures Index.
Age averages SLUMP: The sector is not growing as quickly. OUTPUT in the construction sector grew by some 1.8 per cent in Spain in June compared to 2017, a fall from 4.6 per cent in year-onyear growth in May. The Eurostat figures come as data for the European Union (EU) showed a mixed picture for the industry in different member states. Output fell in Spain by around 0.3 per cent in month-on-month terms from May to June, the second fall so far this year. Activity in the sector across the
bloc grew by 0.6 per cent in month-on-month terms in June compared to May. There was a growth of 1.2 per cent in the EU in May compared to the previous April, meaning there has been three months of uninterrupted growth in construction. Hungary saw the largest increase in construction activity in June compared to May at 7.2 per cent. Slovenia saw the largest fall at 5 per cent.
PROPERTIES in provincial capitals were aged 45 years on average if they were for sale and 44 for rent and the figure stood at 72 and 69 respectively in Barcelona, according to industry figures.
Web launch GERMAN supermarket chain Lidl has launched an online store to sell its own brand products in the Madrid region as part of a pilot scheme which could be rolled out throughout Spain if successful.
Boat rents make waves THE amount of people holidaying on rented boats in Spain was up 42 per cent during the first six months of this year compared to 2017, according to industry data. A total of 3,256 recreational vessels were registered in Spain during the same period, with 1,049 for rental use. The number is expected to be higher than
the total of 1,613 registered during the whole of 2017, according to forecasts from Spain’s General Directorate of the Merchant Navy. Current trends showed the boat rental market had grown by between 15 and 20 per cent annually in recent years. Turnover is roughly around €320 million a year in Spain.

Are our values being threatened? LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT I THINK the so-called ‘snowflakes’ and ‘do gooders’ of our societies are falling hook, line, and naive sinker, into the hands of those whose sole aim is to provoke as much racial hatred and cultural discrimination as possible. All their well-intentioned appeasement of ethnic minorities and promotion of so-called ‘diversity’ is actually having an opposite affect and is in fact managing to raise public resentment and social disharmony to unprecedented and dangerous levels. In my opinion the growth of reversed racism is becoming the biggest weapon the enemies of peaceful integration and social equality possess. This past week we’ve seen some real goodies. Comedian Jack Whitehall was chastised for being cast as the first gay Disney character, because he is in fact heterosexual! (He’s also an actor of course!). Mazz Murray, talented daughter of a dear friend of mine, was barred from performing a song from Dreamgirls at the Albert Hall, because she is white and the song is from an ‘African American’ musical. A while ago the BBC (who else) almost unbe-
WELL-INTENTIONED: But is having an opposite effect and is managing to raise public resentment and social disharmony. lievably specified that applicants for a trainee position in the company would only be considered if they were non-white! A recent lawsuit claimed that YouTube cancelled job interviews with people who were not female black or Hispanic. Another example that caught my eye last week was the casting of a black girl in the role
of Joan of Arc in an upcoming movie. This did make me think what sort of an outcry there would be if it was decided to cast a white man in the leading role of a movie about Nelson Mandela! These subversive agitators also level accusations of racism and Islamophobia at anyone who endeavours to speak out in the name of common
sense and will try to crush our rights to the freedom of speech at every opportunity. All this creates one result only. Anger and resentment. It’s high time the snowflakes were brought to realise that they are being blatantly manipulated by these people, whose only ambition is to spread disruption and division. This small minority don’t want social harmony, they want victory and revenge, and are prepared to use any means available to achieve it; including the purloined assistance of those who naively think they are righting the wrongs of history and inequality. It’s high time the politicians pulled their heads out from the sands of denial and faced up to the problems these people are creating. If they carry on living in their bubbles of privilege and fantasy, and continue to show their appalling lack of courage, common sense and leadership in these matters, the man in the street will, out of pure frustration, decide to act themselves. And if that happens heaven help us all. Thanks for all your letters. Keep ‘em coming. And a great big thank you for all your kind thoughts and best wishes for my twins 18th birthday. Fair warmed the cockles. Have a good week, and whatever ya do. Always... Keep the faith. Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com

Nick Horne The Rich Pick Freelance correspondent, London, England NORMALITY persists. Despite Brexit, terrorism, disasters; life does go on. The usual panic measures in response to this or that usually come to nothing much more than an opportunity for the authorities to put out a statement to the effect of: ‘See, we have done something’ and the attention of the public moves on or simply subsides. Banality, or more simply the ordinary needs of getting ready for work or just this day’s demands occupies us. Routine, a breakfast or the main meal of the day, friends, family and hobbies remain at the centre and core of most lives. Heroic or ordinary, we all dress in much the same way. Fashionistas will of course claim otherwise. Their string shopping bag will be iridescent and will cost many times what you or I may be willing to pay for what is really just a bag for putting our shopping in. Their watches will be limited editions made of rare and precious materials. The cost of just servicing a high end mechanical watch can be as little as €2,000 each time. A collection of such watches is not just a labour of love or an investment; this hobby will need a commitment of more than just time! Even the most ordinary day may be punctuated with a heart stopping moment, when you really do feel the breath of your own
Back to school body and the beat of your own heart. I am thinking of an ordinary man going about his ordinary day driving his employer’s lorry through heavy rain when suddenly he stamps on the brakes and through the murk and just yards ahead sees that the bridge across the chasm stops suddenly with open space and a long drop beckoning him on. Being an alert and lucky man he does not join the dozens of souls who met their doom falling through space as the bridge collapsed beneath them. I would like to believe that the next day he went about his ordinary business, picked up the threads and went on with his life. His family and his friends will, for a time look at him and believe him touched in some special way. Everyone will ponder on what might have been; however then his wife will remind him that summer is coming to a close. School will be calling his children to attend to their studies, so off to the shops they will go for shoes and all the paraphernalia of ‘Back to School.’
LIFE CONTINUES: Despite everything that is thrown at it.

AS temperatures gradually start to head south and the peak summer crowds dissipate, autumn is a great time to take a break. If you’ve opted to stay put over the summer, you’ll be treated to less tourists and lower prices in most places if you travel this autumn. Why not escape and enjoy the vista of a new destination without the hordes and peak season rip-off prices. Here are some of Globelink’s favourite spots to enjoy the sites and some beautiful autumn colour: Florence, Italy In truth, Florence is busy all year round, but autumn is a perfect time to visit as you not only get to appreciate the very best of Renaissance art and architecture, but also some spectacular autumn foliage. Enjoy the natural golds and russets in the Piazzale Michelangelo, or the Boboli landscaped gardens as well as the iconic Duomo, and world famous collections in the Uffiizi Gallary. Florence is home to the finest works by Botticelli, da Vinci, Giotto’s frescoes and Michelangelo’s David. And to keep you cool during your visit, legend has it, that the gelato was invented
Leaf it to us…
TAKE A BREAK: Autumn is a great time to enjoy a new destination. in Renaissance Florence, by Bernardo Buontalenti, so what better place to try this irresistible Italian essential? And if you want to keep it authentic, look out for the word ‘artigianale’ when choosing your gelateria, as this means your gelato is made using traditional recipes and methods.
Lake Bled, Slovenia The Julian Alps provide a magnificent backdrop to the picture perfect Lake Bled that few other locations in the world can match. Its clear blue-green waters and steepled church nestling on a tiny islet at its centre, makes this a stunning spot in autumn. The glacial lake is surrounded by
lush forest foliage that transforms into a riot of oranges, reds and browns during autumn and the intense colours are mirrored in the lake to make the view twice as magical. If you’re feeling energetic, take a hike up the hill to the medieval Bled Castle perched on a craggy outcrop close by. Finland Often associated with snow covered winter scenery, a trip to Finland in September offers the best of all it has to offer. The Finnish for autumn colour is ‘ruska’ and Finland is a top destination for autumn walks. With the richest variety of broadleaf trees, silver birch, pine, blueberries, lingonberries and mosses, it’s a top destination for some world class ‘leaf peeping.’ And the further north you go the more vivid the colours become. And did you know that the Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis is most active during autumn and spring? So if you’re lucky, you will get the added bonus of a spectacular night sky display during your trip. See www.visitfin land.com for more information.

OPINION & COMMENT
YOUR PAPER - YOUR VOICE - YOUR OPINION Letters should be emailed to yoursay@euroweeklynews.com or make your comments on our website: www.euroweeklynews.com I READ with interest the above article in the EWN (Issue 1721). If my mathematics are correct there is a minor error. I agree that the xe.com site shows a GBP/EUR exchange rate low of 1.12014 and a high of 1.15801. The low figure of 1.12014 was on March 6/7 which could be considered outside the ‘last three months.’ However, a change from a low of 1.1204 to a high of 1.15801 is not 0.32 per cent, but rather 3.2 per cent. I trust whoever calculated the 0.32 per cent is not involved in currency exchange! I also found it interesting that no mention was made of the possible impact of upcoming Brexit on the 100 per cent year-on-year purchase increase, as opposed to merely a (relatively) stable currency. Eric A Ferrel, Geneva, Switzerland
The mind truly does boggle HI Leapy, I just wanted to say how your above article is probably what a large proportion of true British people are thinking and grasping what’s going on. Myself and my family and friends

Brits double their money The airlines need to stop allowing drunks on AS a follow up to Jenny’s letter on the above: We have just purchased a house in Torrevieja to be used as a second/holiday home, so I’d also like to comment on a Ryanair flight that I was recently on between Bournemouth and Alicante two months ago. The flight was almost full, and amongst the passengers were several groups of stag and hen parties, but one group of stags were a nightmare from stepping aboard to stepping off. They were very drunk before they had even sat down, they were passing bottles of spirits between themselves, spilling it everywhere and they were swearing. The stewards did nothing to stop this! I didn’t think you were allowed to drink ‘Duty Free’ alcohol on any plane, but I guess on Ryanair they are the exception to the rule. I should feel safe on any form of public transport be in land, sea or air, but on this flight I didn’t.
All letters by email or post should carry the writer’s address, NIE and contact number though only the name and town will be published.
A visit to the theatre
PLANE DRUNK: Not an enjoyable experience. I am also a recovering alcoholic, so having to sit amongst drink being spilt everywhere is not very good for my sobriety, I have no issue with people drinking, but I do not expect to be put in a position where I clearly have no option but to put up with it. It will not put me off flying with Ryanair, but maybe they should do what they are meant to, protect all passengers, not turn a blind eye… Thanks Paul Elliott, Torrevieja Readers who have missed correspondence can see all letters - which can be edited before publication - posted on: www.euroweeklynews.com.

MEL WILLIAMS: Tributes pour in after Costa del Sol loses a ‘legend’ So many great times remembered with you at Banana Beach and The Navy. So sad to see this and sending love to Sally and the family. Ann McConnell
THIS weekend I was fortunate enough to go to the Cardenal Belluga Theatre, one of our local theatres on the Costa Blanca to see ‘From a Jack to a King’ by The Stagestruck Theatre group. On arrival at the theatre I was offered a complimentary drink, a programme and shown to my seat. Shortly after this the lights were dimmed and we were informed to sit back and enjoy. Well in no time at all we were transformed back to an Eastend pub in London to the year 1967 as the actors performed their parts impeccably. It seemed in no time at all the first half was over with an excellent story line consisting of good singing and laugh out loud gags galore. Then came the announcement there would be short interval and the raffle would be drawn, I was unlucky and didn’t win but felt I was already a winner for enjoying the first half performance. The lights again dimmed, opening up to a scene from the recently renovated pub, three years later, as the story unfolded, keeping me laughing with the gags and entertained with the story line. The second half drew to a close with a standing ovation from the audience. After the finale walk down the Director Leigh Humphries stepped forward to thank the audience, the actors, the back stage staff, the sound and lighting crew for their support and commitment to the group. She then called forward a representative from The Torrevieja Alzheimer’s Association and presented them with a cheque for €3,500. I now cannot wait until the next performance, in November, a Pantomime ‘Robin Hood and the Babes in the Wood.’ So for more information or to join the group email leigh.humphries58@ gmail.com.

YOUR STARS FOR NEXT 7 DAYS AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) Energy is low but your spirit seems to be getting power from somewhere. At times, it feels that it is almost outside of your own sphere. When tackling what is seen as a tedious task, you may not be aware that you are building something for the future, but there is much going on that will affect your future to a large extent.
WA-TER SIGHT: Lake Superior is one of North America’s Great Lakes.
PISCES (February 20 - March 20)
Trivia from around the world *** Italy has the most volcanoes of any country in Europe. The Etna, Stromboli and Vesuvius volcanoes are all particularly active. *** There are more than 4,700 daily newspapers in India written in more than 300 languages. *** Argentines spend the most amount
of time on average listening to the radio in the world. The average Argentine spends 2.1 hours a week listening to the radio. *** Having twins is seen as a sign of bad luck in some traditional societies in Ethiopia. Some believe they are cursed or invite evil spirits.
*** The underground metro system of Haifa in Israel is the smallest in the world. It is made up of 1.8 kilometres of track and is served by four carriages. *** There is believed to be about €100,000 in treasure stashed by pirate Olivier Le Vasseur still hidden on a Seychelles island.
For some time, things on the romantic front have been confusing, to say the least. There are decisions that someone has to make that affect you seriously. Romantically and emotionally, things come to a head but don’t let the wind of change blow away all that you have achieved.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20)
DID YOU KNOW? There is enough water in Lake Superior to cover the entire land mass of North and South America to a depth of 30 centimetres. The body of water, which lies in Canada’s Ontario Province and the states of Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan in the United States, is the world’s third largest fresh water lake by volume. Its water volume is estimated to be 12,000 kilometres cubed.
You may well feel that your business life is not going as well as you would have hoped this week. They do say that you can’t have everything right at once.

Really, at the end of the day, the only thing you can control is yourself. The only person you can truly educate is yourself. You have to redefine what beauty is to you so you can’t be affected by what people are saying.” Rupi Kaur, Poet
We’d all like to be certain of what we know, but I think the most important question is to ask yourself: do you really know what you know?” Marlon Brando, Actor
There is something of the rebel in you this week. Even you don’t fully understand the changes taking place. You will resist any attempt to stop from expressing yourself freely. Although you prefer a peaceful time, it may be necessary to remind someone of your rights.
REINTEGRO

Have you been a bit of a couch potato recently? Spend some of this week working towards a healthy mind in a healthy body. Running yourself ragged should certainly be avoided. Seek expert advice now about a problem that just won’t go away. It will, but only with a lot of effort. Although you prefer to share your activities, this is one area that you need to concentrate on fully, so go for it alone to begin with.
LEO (July 24 - August 23) Arm yourself with plenty of information about what is going on in your life at the moment. Those close might expect you to lead the way on an important matter. You need to trust your instincts more and have confidence. Think in the long term. Those who are not considered important now could be so in the future. As you prefer being in charge, this should not seem unnatural to you.
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) Although you feel like going it alone at the moment, you would do well to involve someone close in your project or exercise. There is room for improvement in both your life and your health but it can be more enjoyable if shared. Expect surprises in your love life and you will not be surprised.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) It could be that you are feeling a little below par at the moment. You may assume it is because of a recent emotional upset, but it is unlikely to be quite that simple. Spend a bit of time and money on yourself for a change. Develop your talents in the realms of writing, painting and music. This need not take a large amount of time. Start with one simple project.
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) Despite pulling out all the stops when it comes to a certain person or project, your charm may not be working as well as usual this week. It is still a fine time to beaver on quietly in the background. A few emotional fireworks make you sit up and take notice, but try to be openminded.
SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) Get some rest and peace because, if you let yourself get too tired, your temper could suffer. When it comes to business get it over with so that you can spend extra time on your social life. Something important is round the corner.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) Sometimes you shuffle things around to survive difficult times. The energy that this uses means that realising a dream this week could mean difficult choices to be made. Your need to be settled makes you impatient.

Lovers’ bonds CONNELL and Marianne come from very different worlds despite both growing up in the same town in rural Ireland. The two look set to continue their relationship after both gaining places at the prestigious Trinity College in Dublin. They have had a connection that has lasted many a long time despite various social strains on their bond. They now appear to have the chance to deepen their relationship for many years to come. They are deeply in love in an irony-laden world where it is often difficult to communicate sincerely and be taken at face value. What Connell and Marianne discover is the power of meeting someone you love and its ability to change your life. The simplicity of that realisation shines through cycles of domination, legitimacy and privilege in Sally Rooney’s Normal People.

COCONUT oil is one of the few foods that can be classed as ‘superfood’ offering a wealth of health benefits. Its unique combination of fatty acids can have positive effects, including fat loss, better brain function to name a few. The oil is high in healthy saturated fats which have different effects than most other fats in your diet. These fats can boost fat burning and provide the body and brain with quick energy. They also raise the good cholesterol in your blood, which is linked to reduced heart disease risk. Coconut oil is high in fats known as medium chain triglycerides which are metabolised differently than most other fats. These MCTs are responsible for a lot of the health benefits of the oil itself. And studies have shown that the fats in coconut oil increase calories burned over 24 hours by as much as 5 per cent. The fatty acids contained in the oil of the fruit have also been proven to kill harmful micro-organisms, such as bacteria, viruses and fungi, which could potentially help to prevent infections. Surprisingly, research suggests the fatty acids in the oil can reduce ap-

petite, which may lead to reduced body weight over the long term. They have also been linked to a boost in the brain function in Alzheimer patients. This is because the MCTs can increase blood levels of ketones, supplying energy for the brain cells of patients and relieving symptoms. But coconut oil has many uses that have nothing to do with eating. Many people use it for cosmetic purposes and to improve the health and appearance of your skin and hair. It can also reduce symptoms of eczema. Studies on individuals with dry skin show that the oil can improve the moisture content of the skin. There is evidence to show that applying it to the hair blocks out 20 per cent of the sun’s UV rays. And mixing it with water and using it as a mouthwash can apparently kill some of the harmful bacteria in the mouth, improving dental health and reducing bad breath. In order to get the optimum benefits, it’s a good idea to choose organic, virgin coconut oil, available in most health food shops. COCONUT OIL: The health benefits are endless.
Late night munching risks EATING before bed and midnight snacking disrupts the body’s internal clock and could increase the risk of cancer, according to a new study. Spanish scientists have found that people who regularly ate their evening meal after 9pm, or less than two hours before going to sleep, had a 25 per cent raised risk of breast and prostate cancers. The team, from the Institute for Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), said it could be a result of late dinners that force the body’s metabolism to speed up, at a time when it should be winding down for sleep. It follows several major studies looking at the effects of shift work among nurses and manual workers, with these occupations apparently at higher risk of prostate and breast cancers. These types of cancers are closely linked to hormonal cues and are often treated with testosterone or oestrogen-blocking therapies. Hormones are chemical messengers that can make us sleepy, hungry and stressed and are therefore tightly linked to the body’s rhythms

- the internal clock set by the day-night cycle. Researchers surveyed 1,800 Spanish breast or prostate cancer patients, and more than 2,000 people unaffected by the disease, about their eating and sleeping patterns, and any steps they take to keep healthy. It found cancer patients were more likely to be late night snackers, even after taking into account other health habits and dietary or sleep patterns. Currently international guidelines on the prevention of cancer don’t mention the potential impact of meal times on cancer, though the World Health Organisation does list shift working. Studies on the effects of meal disruption on animals have shown ‘profound effects on health’ and the Barcelona group says if more studies replicate their findings there could be a cause for guidelines to be updated. Dr Dora Romaguera, who led the research, said further research in humans is needed in order to understand the reasons behind these findings, but everything seems to indicate that the timing of sleep affects our capacity to metabolise food.

In Spain, a medical is required in order to have a licence to drive and this has to be renewed regularly. In UK, the onus is on the driver to ensure that their vision reaches the driving standard and the only way to do this is by an eye examination. As you get older the lens inside the eye can often become more yellowed and this can cause light to be scattered inside the eye causing glare in the bright sunlight as well as with headlights at night. This can be reduced by using anti reflection coatings on the lenses. However, if your prescription is out of date or your lenses are scratched or damaged, you can also suffer with glare and may not be able to see as clearly when driving. It is recommended that you

Canine health boost DOGS really could be our best friends. According to a Swedish study, canine ownership could reduce heart disease. A total of 3.4 million people aged between 40 and 80 were surveyed, and it was found that having a dog was associated with a 23 per cent reduction in death from heart disease. The 12-year study also revealed a 20 per cent lower risk of dying from any cause. Previous studies have suggested that our furry friends can relieve social isolation and depression, both of which are linked to an increased risk
of heart disease and early death. Apparently, dog owners show better responses to stress, because their blood pressure and pulse rates don’t soar, they have higher levels of physical activity and slightly lower cholesterol levels. The American Heart Association was sufficiently convinced by a review of dozens of studies to release a statement five years ago saying that owning a dog ‘was probably’ associated with a reduced risk of heart disease. Their reluctance to more strongly endorse dog ownership is because most studies are what is called observational - researchers note an association, but can’t prove causation. This means that other factors may explain why dog owners are healthier than hamster owners, for example. Perhaps only people who are fit in the first place buy pets that need daily walks.

What is arthritis? ARTHRITIS -– such a common diagnosis for so many people and so many joints. But what is it? Arth - joint Itis - inflammation This can happen to any joint in the body - any point where two bones meet, and this includes each disc of the spine as well! Sometimes we are given more complicated names for specific joints or conditions: Osteoarthritis - when the cartilage within the joint has started to break down and the bones are affected. Spondylitis - arthritic changes in the spine (at the spondylitic joints). You might also be told that a joint has ‘degenerative changes’ or that you are ‘getting old’ (sadly, I’m not joking!). What happens in an arthritic joint? The cartilage that acts as a
By Estelle Mitchell www.thebodyworksclinic.com cushion between the two bones starts to break down. Now cartilage has no nerve endings so it can take a LOT of damage before we feel any pain. Usually the pain starts when the cartilage has broken down enough that the bones are rubbing against each other. Once the bones start rubbing they also start to change and this is where the ‘osteo’part begins. What can I do? There are a number of options depending on the exact situation: Relieve the pressure on the joint - every step we take
and action we perform puts pressure on our bones, joints and muscles. If these aren’t working correctly to begin with then we put additional stress on them and wear them away quicker. One of the most common examples is when you have a flat foot causing a twist through the ankle and knee, by properly supporting the foot we can easily reduce the pressure and pain in the knee. Physiotherapy - by strengthening the muscles around the joint we can again reduce the pressure and use electro-therapies to bring down the painful inflammation. MRT - a German technology derived from Magnetic Resonance Imaging this helps to reduce bone swelling (the painful part) and strengthen and rejuvenate the cartilage which acts as the cushion between joints.

What’s lurking in our beds? IT is so tempting to leave the chore of changing your bed sheets ‘until tomorrow.’ But as well as potentially spending the night with bed bugs, there’s a cocktail of more stomach-churning liquids lurking in your bedding that might make you think twice. Laundry experts suggest we may be snoozing in a mixture of saliva, urine and genital fluids. Apparently, over eight years our mattress can soak up enough liquid from our bodies to fill two bath tubs. Warning that we need to wash our sheets more often, Mary Marlowe says that these vile liquids can quickly seep through into our mattresses. During sleep, we continue to perspire, and body oils and soil are released. “It is possible to find saliva, urine, genital fluids, and other matter in the fibres,” she said. And aside from smelling bad, there is a risk that if the sleeper has scratches or wounds, they can become infected. She added that ‘athlete's foot and other fungi can be transferred from fabrics. Infrequent cleaning of sheets and pillowcases allows the fluids to seep into the pillows and mattresses, and those are much more difficult to clean than tossing sheets in the washer.’
But it’s not just bodily fluids that pose a risk. Our sheets could be lined in layers of excess skin, and it could be as much as five kilograms over eight years. The shedded cells create a visible barrier on your mattress over time, leading to unsightly stains and discolouration on your mattress. This thick layer of cells helps to breed dust mites, which are known to aggravate sufferers of asthma and even eczema. This can increase two-fold if you let your pet dog or cat sleep on your bed, as half of the population admit to doing. Cleaning your linen properly, not a quick wash, is apparently essential to avoid the ‘slightly rancid and stale smell’ that is often found when pulling new sheets from the cupboard. Ms Marlowe advises washing bed linen at the hottest temperature recommended on the sheet label, and more regularly when unwell or when the weather is hot. Ventilating your bedroom helps to stop the growth of mould and investing in a mattress protector can help reduce the fluid that is absorbed. Replace your mattress every eight years, or if you’re renting, ask your landlord to replace it.
KEEP IT CLEAN: Regularly wash bed linen at high temperatures.

PRESIDENT Trump is a leader who has inspired renewed, worldwide respect for the US. He has demonstrated strong moral principles and diplomacy. History will judge him to have been an astute and canny politician whose altruism (a distinctive Trump characteristic) helped rescue an economy in dire straits. His understanding of the sensitive and complex nature of international relations is nothing less than amazing. His wisdom - likewise his economic vision of the future - is a guiding light to others. Future leaders will scrutinise his tweets attempting to comprehend that visionary, mercurial magnetism that is Trump. An outstanding statesman who is vastly undervalued in these benighted times. Yes.

Reminds me of the old joke: ‘How can you tell when Donald Trump is lying?’- ‘His lips move’ ‘President Donald Trump told nearly six times more lies in the first 10 months of his presidency than former President Barack Obama did in his entire eight-year term,’ according to the New York Times. These figures were
verified by fact-checking organisations while Trump supporters invented the term ‘alternative facts.’ But Trump’s lies aren’t the only problem. It’s the millions who swallow them ‘bigly’ who really matter. One thing you can be certain of is that whatever goes wrong, Trump and his little Trumpflakes will always find someone else to blame. ‘It’s the media! It’s the Democrats! It’s Obama! It’s Hillary! It’s my son-in-law! It’s the CIA! It’s the FBI! It’s Comey!’ Unbelievable! (Or, in other words: ‘Infamy! Infamy! They’ve all got it infamy!’).

Would you like a receipt? Mike Senker In my opinion Views of a Grumpy Old Man I READ this week, that after 23 school shootings in 2018, the US government has taken major steps to make some changes. What are they, you may ask? Well, at last they have banned something. No, not guns they have banned plastic straws! Yeah I know the environment is suffering terribly from single use plastic products but come on, for goodness sake, do something about the killing of your kids. I’m going to let you into a little secret about me. My answer to the question, ‘would you like a receipt’ is based on absolutely nothing and changes all the time. Obviously if I’m buying some electrical good or an item of clothing the answer is going to be ‘yes’ but for everything else the answer depends on... Well, nothing really. On the subject of buying stuff what is it with these new plastic pen and touch screen thingies in stores and banks? It’s impossible to get anything that remotely looks like my signature. It just doesn’t feel right when you try and sign your name. Why not just use pin numbers?
I had an interesting situation this week. I was on my way home and I got a one word message from Mrs S. All it said was ‘chocolate’ so I stopped at the nearest supermarket which just happened to be Iceland. I did a quick in and out and grabbed a few assorted bars of chocolate, paid and interesting enough, in this instance, I stuck the receipt in the bag. Anyway, we were sitting down watching TV and decided it was ‘chocolate o’clock’ so Mrs S went and got a bar. She then asked me if I had eaten some on the way home. Her reason for asking was that it had been opened and a few squares were missing. Now what do you do? Definitely not eat it! Take it back? Well it only cost a euro but then again it’s not right so we decided to return it back to the supermarket. When we took it back the manager just said sorry and immediately changed it for us. He then offered up an amazing bit of information that this apparently happens all the time all round the store. Every day they find empty or opened and half eaten packets of products - sandwiches, crisps, sweets, drinks etc. But, it’s very hard to prove once someone has left the store as the evidence has been eaten. So my advice is have a good look at your stuff as you pick it up. mikesenker@gmail.com

TECH FOR THE TIMID WHEN I make a cup of tea, my new internet kettle reports it to Reykjavik. Neighbours were able to watch their house being burgled on their smartphone, and recent guests insisted we listen to their baby gurgling back home thanks to an online monitor. Oh what joy. I haven’t yet succumbed to buying an internet-connected fridge which will let me know when the Nutella’s running low (horror of horrors), but it’s coming. A new survey says the average Western home now has six connected devices, rising fast. What’s most worrying about this trend is not just that if the internet goes down, life as we know it is over, but how much stuff is connecting without us realising it.

The world currently has three billion smartphones, but will have 20 billion internet-connected devices just two years from now. Experts agree the security is not yet in place for this deluge of interconnectivity. Privacy is becoming quaintly old-fashioned, hackers are going into pizza-fuelled overdrive and security watchdogs are heading for the bunkers. Bottom line: beware what you buy if it says it’s connectable. Are we ready for everything we own to create individual mini-surveillance states which would have made the Stasi proud?

Fatal flaw WHY would anyone want an internet-connected kettle? Let me count the ways. Imagine how much time you save not having to actually go to the kitchen to switch it on; the app is on your smartphone. Tell it to boil from your commute, or while snoozing in bed. The app shows how much water it has, how many cups it will make, how much energy you’re using, and how long it will take to boil. There’s a ‘Keep Warm’ feature which, you guessed it, keeps the water warm till you get there. The ‘Share’ feature lets you WhatsApp others to ask if they want a cuppa. All done remotely, brilliant. Except for one fatal flaw: you still have to walk to the kettle to fill it.

to go to Malaga to get a replacement now that almost everything can be done online it still would have been an unnecessary cost and the hassle of making the ‘denuncia’ to the police. Even if you just lose your passport as opposed to having it stolen, it is always advisable to make the
‘denuncia’ report to the police as according to recent articles it would seem that the British passport is in the top five desired by terrorists and criminals. Ironically it is at the airport where we are most likely to lose our passport: we take them out to show
at Passport Control and then like me at the shop, forget to put it away whilst fumbling with stuff and being distracted. It could be days or even weeks before we even notice it’s missing, or until it’s time to return home and a simple oversight becomes an emergency. The British are not as fortunate as other nationalities like the Spanish for example; we have no other form of valid ID in Spain. Our passport is the only legal form of proving who we are here, so well worth looking after very carefully. If however you do find that you need to replace your passport at short notice you can apply for an emergency travel document, but it’s going to cost you the best part of €100 and will only be valid for one return journey home. You will still have to apply for a full validity Passport which will cost another £80-odd. Perhaps by giving our passport this financial value it will help us appreciate how lucky we are to have it just a little bit more! @marbellanow www.marbellanowtv.com

These foods include; liver, clams, sardines, beef, fortified breakfast cereals, trout, salmon and eggs. Grilled Tuna and King Prawns with a Lemon and Saffron Sauce Serves 4 4 tuna steaks, skinned. Juice from one large lemon. 2 teaspoons freshly ground black peppercorns. 1 tablespoon olive oil. 12 large prawns, shelled and deveined. 1 whole lemon, zested and juiced. 2 medium sized onions, sliced. 2 whole garlic cloves, chopped. 1 whole yellow pepper, seeded and chopped. 1 cup white vermouth.
2 cubes of fish stock, crumbled 1 pinch of saffron threads. Salt, to taste. 4 dried lemon leaves. 4 teaspoons cornstarch mixed with 4 tablespoons water. Marinate tuna and prawns with lemon juice and black pepper for 10 minutes in the fridge. While the tuna is marinating, prepare the sauce: Fry garlic, onion and the yellow pepper for 3-4 minutes. Add juice and zest from the second lemon, the fish stock, vermouth, saffron, lemon leaves and salt. Bring to simmer and thicken with the cornstarch and water mix. Preheat grill and grill the tuna on high heat for five minutes each side until cooked to each diner’s personal preference. Barbecuing is a good, if not better option, but 4 teaspoons of olive oil need to be added to the lemon juice/olive oil mix, to prevent it sticking. Repeat the same process for the prawns. Serve with sauce. Tip: Prawns need to be well prepared, they need to be shelled, then, using a sharp knife remove the intestine. Tip: The tuna can be pink or raw, the prawns must be cooked until opaque, to prevent food poisoning.

Popular classics under the stars THE last of the summer concerts to be presented by the Municipal Band of Estepona (BME) will take place in the Plaza del Reloj this coming Sunday. Admission is free to the event which starts at 9pm and this is the ninth year that the BME has performed to large audiences in the town presenting more than 50 different concerts consisting of Spanish band music, circus music, zarzuela, modern popular music, and themes from great film soundtracks. This concert will concentrate on popular classics and the final piece will be the band’s own interpretation of the Anthem of Estepona, with lyrics and music by Manuel Navarro Mollor.

Kool and the Gang hit Puente Romano Tennis Court THIS, the only concert to be held at Puente Romano in Marbella in 2018, was promoted heavily and despite the fact that Kool and the Gang are no longer hit makers the event was almost a complete sell out with coachloads of people arriving from along the coast. The evening opened with a sparkling performance by local Spanish funk and soul group the Jackie Brown Band, a seven-piece who play covers of some of the most famous soul numbers with a really rock feel (a la Blues Brothers Band). Often venues are half full when the support band starts playing but they went down a storm with the audience and a very large number of people were dancing in the aisles. In fact whilst it would be unfair to say that they blew Kool and the Gang off the stage, because everything they played was so well known they certainly got the crowd on their side very early on and as they appear regularly at different venues on the Costa del Sol, they are

keyboards and Dennis Thomas on alto sax. Amir, another brother to Kool and Ronald joined the band as guitarist in 2006 and the 14-piece band are not only very tight but have some great
moves on stage. They were very well received but it was clear that they are not just hit makers but have a wide repertoire which veers into jazz at times and is not as accessible to the audience which was there to party and dance. Great as it was, a long trombone solo didn’t really catch the imagination and it was only towards the end of the performance that the band started playing their greatest hits like Celebration, Get Down on It and Jungle Boogie that the audience really got moving. It was a very professional performance from a tight band which has sold millions of records over the years and certainly nobody would have left disappointed, although the performance may not have been quite what they had expected. Now we have to wait to hear what the 2019 programme from promoters Rock Lounge will be as they are renowned for bringing a number of top international acts to Marbella on a regular basis.

PEDRO SANCHEZ’S government allowed the Aquarius rescue boat with 629 immigrant passengers to dock in Spain. Two months later it told the Aquarius, then located off the Libya coast with another 141 immigrants aboard, to look elsewhere. Spain was neither the nearest nor the safest port, the Spanish president Pedro Sanchez maintained. The cynical and/or uncharitable could argue that he’s caught a whiff of the anti-immigrant miasma ramped up by Partido Popular leader Pablo Casado and wants to scoop up a few votes before they go to Farage emulators. Spain has taken in 27,614 North Africans, sub-Saharans and an assortment of other nationalities since January but before populist politicos and their followers get their knickers in a twist regarding immigrants, it’s worth remembering that although all are happy to land in Spain, few want to stay. Last June dozens of Aquarius adolescents staying in Alicante City tried to do a runner on their first night and admitted wanting to move on to France. Of those who stayed put, a fair number told social workers and psychologists that they left their countries to become footballers. Benefits in Spain are exiguous - as the

Spanish know to their cost - and most of the immigrants who reach Spain via the sea or by storming the Ceuta and Melilla borders, know that life will be hard if they stay here. Many move on as soon as possible, off to less sunny climes and destinations with a better chance of finding work and a more relaxed and munificent benefits system.
Job done THE national daily El Mundo did a neat
hatchet job on Casado case judge Carmen Rodriguez-Medel while damning her faintly with praise. The daughter and sister of two Guardia Civil colonels, Rodriguez-Medel has often handed out harsh sentences and is perceived as Right-leaning. Already regarded as a workaholic she apparently worked 14 hours a day on instructing the case before referring it in record time to the Supreme Court which will decide whether the PP leader was given his Master’s Degree in Autonomos Law instead of working for it. According to some, Rodriguez-Medel is doing her utmost to demonstrate that she is tough on corruption and not favouring the PP at Casado’s expense. Others claim that she belongs to Soraya Saenz de Santamaria’s camp and wants to pull away the rug from under the feet of the man who snatched the PP leadership from her. Few suggest that Rodriguez-Medel is simply doing her job to the best of her ability.

They are serving their time and the victims’ associations COVITE and AVT, implacable in condemning any relaxation of ETA prisoners’ regimes, have no objection to the transfers.

HOMES
GARDENS
CREATING a beautiful and individual garden does not have to cost a fortune. There are dozens of things lying around the home that are destined for the bin, but could be put to better use. Recycling is a great way to save money and use your creativity. With the following ideas, you can literally let your imagination go wild, the funkier and quirkier, the better. And the brilliant thing is, at least one of the following ideas will bring colour to every outdoor space, from the tiniest balcony or courtyard to the largest, sprawling garden. The features can be made from things you have lying around, waiting to be thrown out or picked up on your travels. Even if you are a novice gardener or not too handy with the tools, here are some DIY garden decor ideas to add individuality to your garden. Old wellies, trainers and boots can be transformed into plantpots. Pierce the soles with a knife or even a drill, to allow water to drain away and place your chosen plant inside. These can be placed on the floor or strung with rope. Small gardens can be made to look bigger by hanging mirrors on walls or shed frames. GROWING plants in Spain with success doesn’t have to mean hard work and a regular water supply. It can be quite frustrating trying to maintain an oasis of colour and scent when the sun is at its zenith. But there are plants that will thrive on very little water, and they’re perfect for gardening with satisfaction in sunny climates. Just a ramble through the countryside will show you that plants can survive anywhere. But when choosing for yourself, there are a few fast rules that are easy to remember. Look at the leaves. Choose ones that feel like felt, are furry, waxy or silvery in colour. The first are all tougher and less susceptible to damage by sunlight, the latter reflect light.

Awesome on a budget bottles, fill them with water, and using rope, tie them to a fence and fill them with cut flowers from other parts of your garden, or even plastic stalked versions. If using real plants, the water will need to be topped up and changed occasionally. Old wooden crates and boxes filled with a potted plant and even a couple of empty wine bottles looks attractive. If you have a large, sturdy tree in your garden, and a wooden chair with arns, and three legs…why not make your own swing. Cut off the remaining three legs and tie a thick rope around the arms. Then tie the other end of the rope around a branch capable of holding your weight. And old tree stumps could be transformed by placing large flower pots on top, or a table top.

Succulent solutions Plant according to what you’ve got, check out where the sunniest corner is on your patch, likewise the shadiest, and use these natural locations wisely. Mulch is an option. A layer of bark will protect the roots from the drying effects of the sun, keep in any water, and look pretty and neat into the bargain. See what the neighbours are up to. Have a peek over the fence and see what grows best before you splash out your hard earned cash at the garden centre. Some plants to look out for are succulents and cacti. They’re practically impossible to kill off, and can be ignored
completely for lengthy periods. Some other succulents are Agave, Aloe, Echeveria, Euphorbia and Sedum. Cycas are mostly stunning trees that can be grown in pots and make great architectural features. They take a long time to grow, but you can pick them up in mature states very reasonably in Spain. Hibiscus is a pretty plant. The tropical trumpeting flower comes in all shades, from palest pink to vibrant sunny yellow. Used in hedges, along motorways, to decorate pedestrian shopping streets and balconies and courtyards all over Spain, it’s easy to look af-
ter and gives instant flowering results. It needs less regular watering if it’s planted straight into the ground, rather than a pot. Hypericum are squat and bushy ornamental plants with showy flowers that just keep on flowering. They’re a brilliant plant if you’re thinking rockery with some nice beach-like pebbles and stones. And they handle the heat well, as they’re protective of themselves, owing to the squat and dense shape and structure. Kalanchoe is another type of succulent, with fat rubbery leaves and tiny clusters of showy flowers. Plant them small in pots for your balcony,

into a rockery or together in clumps for colour and low structure. The leaves will soak up any water and dole it out accordingly to the plant’s needs.

Guadalupe - the Royal Monastery at the heart of Spanish history by Dilip Kuner SET in the heart of the region of Extremadura about an hour ’s drive from the historic Renaissance town of Caceres, the pretty village of Guadalupe is a remarkable destination in its own right. While its cobbled streets are lined with striking buildings that show the evidence of many centuries of history, the reason people come from far and wide is to see the magnificent building right at its centre the Sanctuary-Monastery of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Founded by King Alfonso XI of Castille in the 14th century, it is a truly exceptional edifice that has been added to and lavishly em-
styles. The 14th-15th century Mudejar church and cloister is particularly fine, with its intricate façade setting a striking tone. The interior nave and two side aisles are notable for their fine vaulting and feature richly ornamented altars and tombs.
ROYAL MONASTERY: At the heart of power. bellished down the years. In fact it is regarded so highly that it has been named as a UN World Heritage Site. It became Spain’s Royal Monastery, where the great and good gathered amidst some of the most magnificent religious art and exquisite gold, and silverware. This was not simply a religious house, for it was at the heart of power. It was
here that the Catholic Monarchs, Isabella and Ferdinand, granted Christopher Columbus an audience that would eventually lead to the discovery of the Americas.

The sacristy is renowned for a series of paintings by Zurbarán and magnificent wall paintings that seem to leap out from the plain canvas of the architecture itself. It was built between 1638 and 1647 and provides a contrast to the earlier periods. Moving through the sacristy the Chapel of Santa Catalina of Alejandria is home to some imposing tombs that date to the 17th
century. It is also packed with reliquaries and exquisite works of art. Entering into the Camarin de la Vigen you will find an octagonal room decorated in baroque style. Head up the stairs and the star of the show awaits - Guadalupe’s famous black Madonna. Here a monk takes over
from the usual guide to present the statue to and bless visitors. The statuette is richly clothed and in her arms holds a baby Jesus - also black. It is the most emblematic symbol of the monastery and for many Catholics the most holy part of the visit.

Socialisation of dogs SOCIALISING dogs can help prepare them for new encounters. Pet sitters can find themselves caring for dogs who are not prepared to meet new dogs or go out in public. It can be a challenge. Last week David the Dogman discussed a method of early ‘socialisation’ of dogs as a good preparation for their behaviour when meeting new dogs. As regular dog sitters will tell you, it can make all the difference if a dog is prepared through socialisation for new canine encounters. As a dog owner ‘socialisation’ of your dog can help make your dog easier to look after and more importantly it makes them more comfortable and relaxed in public places. It is also easier for the dog and the owner if they understand the process of befriending other dogs. If you have dogs to care for while you are away on holiday please get in touch. We can

PLUMBING AT SOS ANIMAL REFUGE we have dogs, young and old looking for homes. Some of our dogs have been with us for some time and would love to find a cosy spot to curl up in and a knee on which to rest their heads.

For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive.

BMW 3 Series given a thorough test THE next generation of the BMW 3 Series Limousine is just completing the crucial stages on the way to serial production maturity. There was only one possible setting when it came to driving dynamics testing and set-up runs: The legendary Nordschleife at Nürburgring. Test runs at the ‘Green Hell’ traditionally serve as an endurance test for the drive and suspension technology of newly de-
veloped BMW models. A particularly extensive testing programme was developed for the camouflaged prototypes of the new BMW 3 Saloon. After all, the comprehensive renewal of the wheel/suspension, steering, damping/suspension and brakes provided the developers with a broad range of opportunities to optimise ride comfort and dynamic performance, enabling the ultimate sports saloon, for the mid-

range, premium segment, to mature lap by lap. The underlying concept of the four-door model shows just how much the development process for the new BMW 3 Series Saloon was geared towards enhanced, sporty flair. The car’s agility and steering precision benefit from much expanded track width, while increased wheel camber levels offer additional potential for maximum transverse dynamics.
In terms of the engine portfolio, one particularly striking feature is a thoroughly revised four-cylinder petrol engine. It is the most powerful fourcylinder engine ever to be fitted in a BMW series production model. Yet its fuel consumption figures are still some 5 per cent below those of the predecessor engine: One contributing factor here is the further developed eight-speed Steptronic transmission.

Almost four years on from its arrival in the UK in 2014, the Renegade has been given a slight makeover with a tinkered nose, updated interior, new wheels (16”-19”), improved safety and new petrol and diesel engines. The new engines include a 1.0 litre with 118bhp and a 1.3 litre with 148bhp or 177bhp, as well as updated versions of the 1.6 and 2.0 litre diesels, with manual, DCT or nine-speed auto depending on engine choice. Available in two versions with two or four-wheel drive, with Jeep Active Drive and Jeep Active Drive Low for 4WD, the Jeep Select Terrain comes with four modes for different surfaces and there’s safety stuff like Lane Departure and Speed Assist too.

The August Classic Car Run ESPITE the heat of August, members of the CCC of A continue to enjoy their cars, the countryside and the camaraderie and social life that the Club inspires. This month, unperturbed by the heat, the regular monthly classic car run took place organised by club members Trevor Naylor and Martin Hall. The run started at Venta Peligrino, just above Marbella, and set off at 11.00am after the usual registration process fuelled by bacon sarnies and hot coffee! The route went past Ojen and down through Monda and Guaro, joining the main Coin to Alozaina road. Crews then turned off to Tolox and headed up to the marvellous Hotel Montana for more coffee and a chance to enjoy the marvellous views. From there it was on to Alozaina and the old country road to cross the Rio Grande (don’t you just love saying that, sounds like it came from John Wayne!). After that a Cava stop was provided, by the organisers, just outside of Coin, and thoroughly enjoyed despite the rather warm conditions. The route then headed towards Mijas, down past Entrerrios and
D
joined the old Camino de Coin, past Mijas golf course and then on to finish at Restaurante Palma Nova, just by the golf course there, and where a well deserved glass of chilled Cava awaited everyone. Around 50 people sat down to a most excellent lunch and all were very well looked after by the staff and kitchen of Palma Nova. No overheating problems were reported, at least not from the cars, although the crews themselves may have been running a little ‘over normal’! The CCCA Hog Roast In fact, the Restaurante Palma Nova will be the start venue for the Club’s Hog Roast taking place near Entrerrios this Friday. Cars and hungry members will meet there around 6.30pm to enjoy a refreshing drink before setting off for the secret location near Entrerrios. The Hog Roast will get under way around 7.30pm and there will be live music and entertainment provided for the evening. These social events are always well supported and enjoyed by many, allowing more time than usual to get together and relax over some good food and a glass of something cold.
Classic Car News:Classic Car Values Post Brexit There is some debate in the classic car world about what might happen to values after Brexit. Normally, I avoid any political comment but it is interesting to hear the views of the so-called ‘experts.’ Mike Brewer, the TV presenter and classic car dealer has been reported as saying he thinks values will rise because, at times of economic uncertainty, many people will switch their investments from traditional avenues to safer and more tangible things and classic cars have, especially in recent decades, performed very well in these times. Income from these cars is tax free but, just as important, one can get in them and enjoy so much more at the same time as, h o p e f u l l y,
getting a good return. Certainly compared to the banks and, possibly at this time, property, this could well be true. However, it is certainly true that some classics have taken a bit of a tumble over the past year or so, but most see that as a ‘levelling’ or ‘realigning’ of some excessive value hikes over the past few years. We shall wait and see, but I’m still very happy to keep a decent collection of classics! Classics On TV For all us classic car enthusiasts there is a new TV programme coming soon to the ‘Dave’ channel called ‘Modern Wheels or Classic Steals.’ It will screen on Tuesday evenings, from September 11, and will be presented by London Motor Museum owner Elo King and current fast lady racing driver Rebecca Jackson. It will feature each week a ‘battle’ of classic car versus modern car which should be most interesting. I don’t know what are the criteria for judgement but the more classic cars we have on TV, the better it is for us
all! Ten years of the CCCA The Club makes it to the end of its first 10 successful years in early September and there will be several events to commemorate this amazing achievement. There will be more information on these
celebrations in our next issue. That’s it from me until next time!

MANCHESTER CITY boss Pep Guardiola said Sergio Aguero is in the best condition he has seen him in, after the striker scored a superb hat-trick in a thumping 6-1 win over Huddersfield. Aguero opened the scoring in the first half before adding two goals after the break to complete his 13th career hat-trick and ninth in the Premier League. Victory for the defending champions never looked in doubt against a Huddersfield team that have lost their opening two games. City will travel to face Wolves on Saturday, while Huddersfield will host Cardiff. Marcos Alonso’s late strike settled a classic in favour of Chelsea, after Arsenal fought back from two goals down. The Blues went two goals ahead thanks to early strikes from Pedro and Morata, before Mkhitaryan and Iwobi hauled Arsenal back into contention in a thrilling first half. Chelsea seized control of the second half, with Alonso sweeping in Hazard’s cross nine minutes from time to make it successive wins for

new manager Maurizio Sarri. The Blues will head to the Toon to face Newcastle on Sunday, while Arsenal host West Ham on Saturday. Harry Kane finally scored his first Premier League goal in August as Tottenham continued their positive start with a 3-1 home win over Fulham. Lucas Moura’s curling effort was his first Premier League goal and got Spurs on the board, but a Mitrovic header levelled matters for Fulham. Spurs and England revelation Kieran Trippier then struck a trademark freekick into the top corner, before Kane turned his man and placed the ball into the far corner to seal the win. Tottenham will travel to struggling Manchester United on Monday, while Fulham will host Burnley on Sunday. Other fixtures this Saturday will see Everton travel to Bournemouth, Southampton host Leicester on Saturday, and Arsenal entertain West Ham.

GARETH Bale scored as Real Madrid started La Liga life without Cristiano Ronaldo and Zinedine Zidane with a comfortable win over Getafe. Dani Carvajal headed in Real’s opening league goal under Julen Lopetegui after Bale’s cross was punched to him by goalkeeper David Soria. Bale hit the bar with a diving header before turning home Marco Asensio’s cross to wrap up the win. Real will turn their attention to Girona on Sunday, who drew
0-0 at home to Real Valladolid. Lionel Messi scored twice as Barcelona got their La Liga title defence off to a flyer with a 3-0 victory over Alaves. Messi fired a fantastic freekick to open the scoring, while Philip Coutinho cut inside to curl home a second. Then to add insult to injury time, Messi controlled a pass with his chest, beat two defenders and steered a low shot into the bottom corner of the net. Barca will travel to face Real Valladolid on Saturday, and fel-
low contenders Sevilla won comfortably at Rayo Vallecano. Portugal international Andre Silva, 22, scored a hat-trick on his La Liga debut in a 4-1 victory. Sevilla are top of the league and host Villarreal on Sunday full of confidence about mounting a sustained title challenge. Other fixtures this weekend will see Levante host Celta Vigo on Monday, Espanyol entertain Valencia on Sunday, and Huesca travel to Athletic Bilbao on Monday.
Sainz overtakes Alonso CARLOS SAINZ has signed a multi-year deal to replace Fernando Alonso at McLaren from the 2019 season, the team have confirmed. Alonso, twice world champion, announced that he will retire from Formula 1 at the end of the year. Fellow Spaniard Sainz, 23, is currently on loan at Renault from Red Bull and said it was a “childhood dream” to join McLaren. “It’s a great name in the sport with an incredible heritage, and the list of drivers who have raced for McLaren over the years are among the heroes of Formula 1,” said Sainz. “Fernando is of course one of them, so it’s
particularly special that I’ll be taking his seat as part of the next generation of Spanish racing drivers behind the wheel of a McLaren.” McLaren Racing chief executive Zak Brown said Sainz, who began his F1 career with Toro, Rosso, provided “the perfect blend of youth and experience.” After the Hungarian Grand Priz, Sainz sits 11th in the drivers’ championship standings with 30 points, with his best race finish fourth in Singapore while racing for Toro Rosso in 2017. McLaren’s other driver is Belgian Stoffel Vandoorne.

FIELDING QUESTIONS: Cipriani had only recently returned to the England squad. decision to charge Cipriani so quickly was prompted by the high profile nature of the case. “We feel that this disciplinary process has been influenced by the significant media coverage of this week’s events and other external factors,” he said. Cipriani was fined €2,230 after he pleaded guilty, and was also ordered to pay €280 compensation to a female police officer.
Three other charges - assault on police, larceny and being disorderly on licensed premises - were dropped. The maverick fly-half said on Twitter he was “truly sorry… most importantly to the police” and was “mortified” by his actions. He was recalled by England for the Test series against South Africa in June, after three years out of the squad.

Victory for world number two Federer would have brought him his 99th career trophy, as well as levelling the long-time rivals’ head-to-head record at 23-23.

ENGLAND and Gloucester flyhalf Danny Cipriani has been charged with ‘conduct prejudicial to the interests of the game’ by the Rugby Football Union, after a nightclub incident in Jersey. Cipriani, 30, was fined after pleading guilty to assault and resisting arrest. RFU head of discipline David Barnes said: “We have high standards that we expect across the game,” but Gloucester chief executive Stephen Vaughan has criticised the timing of the charge. Vaughan claimed the charge came despite ‘personal assurances’ that none would be brought before Gloucester had completed its own discussions. Cipriani’s disciplinary hearing will take place next week, with the date, time, and members of the independent RFU panel yet to be confirmed. Vaughan believes the RFU’s

But Federer started the second set the strongest, racing into a 2-0 lead before Djokovic fought back fiercely with two breaks of serve in a row. The Serb served for victory on his first championship point in one hour and 24 minutes to complete a career ‘Golden Masters.’ “It’s a very special moment,” he said. “It’s the first time I get to stand with a winning trophy in Cincinnati.” Federer was magnanimous in defeat and said: “Congratulations to Novak for your amazing effort not just this week, but throughout your whole career, it is an amazing achievement.”
Fury walks on Wilder side T Y S O N F U RY w i l l f i g h t D e o n t a y Wi l d e r f o r t h e WBC heavyweight title in N o v e m b e r o r D e c e m b e r, according to promoter Frank Warren. Fury, registered a unanimous points victory over Francesco Pianeta on Saturday in only his second fight since returning from a two-and-a-half year spell out of the sport. T h e M a n c h e s t e r- b o r n f i g h t e r, 3 0 , w o n a l l 1 0 rounds to secure a points win over Pianeta in Belfast.
He exchanged words with Wilder after the fight, and said: “One thing I promise when I go to Las Vegas is I am knocking you out.” Wilder responded: “If he even thinks about the WBC belt, he better wake up and apologise to me as he will never have this.” Fury, who showed sharp movement and focus in his win over Pianeta, has secured the fight after failed negotiations between
Wilder and WBA, IBF and WBO champion Anthony Joshua. Promoter Frank Warren has not yet confirmed Las Vegas as the fight’s venue, but boosting pay-per-view interest will now be his priority, and he has two vocal personalities. But when all of the talking is done, Fury will need the evasive footwork he showed against Pianeta and more against a man with 39 knockouts from 40 fights.
