By Joe Gerrard A BRITISH man has died after being shot by police who were attempting to arrest him in Estepona on Monday morning. Sean Hercules, 39, was at a hotel in the town when the police opened fire on him after he reportedly fled the scene of a crash in nearby Marbella. National Police claimed their officers found two firearms and four ammunition magazines near where he died. Britain’s Foreign and Commonwealth Office said they had been in contact with the 39-year-old’s family. Their statement did not name Hercules directly. “We have offered the family of a British man support and advice on bereavement abroad,” the government department said. National Police were despatched to Cancelada in

the hotel. Officers said they came under fire when trying to arrest Hercules, forcing them to shoot back in defence of themselves and others at the scene. Hercules was previously
sentenced to a nine-year sentence in 2001 and a six-year minimum sentence in 2006 for a robbery and shooting respectively in Leeds, according to reports. The investigation continues.
Package blown up BOMB experts with the National Police have carried out the controlled detonation of a package which they said contained explosives in a Marbella urbanisation. Officers with the police’s TEDAX unit were called out to the Alto de
los Monteros urbanisation after receiving reports of the package on Tuesday. The package was found on Calle Lavanda. Police carried out tests of the package and they confirmed it contained explosive material. It was
then detonated about 21 hours after the discovery was made. An ambulance was on hand during the detonation but police said no injuries were caused. The reasons for the package being left there remain unknown.

By Joe Gerrard A FORMER Russian who fell victim to an alleged nerve agent attack in Britain had previously worked with Spanish intelligence services tackling organised crime, according to media claims. Sergei Skripal cooperated with the National Intelligence Centre (CNI) in work against Russian-run gangs in Spain. He was previously assigned to covert work in Russia’s embassy in Madrid by the Kremlin, according to a highranking Spanish intelligence source and others quoted in the New York Times. The revelations come as Skripal fell victim to an alleged Russian-sponsored chemical weapons attack in Salisbury in March. The British government blamed Moscow for the strike and the Kremlin has repeatedly denied involvement. The New York Times piece cited intelligence sources, an unnamed retired Spanish police chief and the investigative journalist Fernando Rueda. The sources said Russia’s Military Intelligence Service (GRU) posted Skripal in

COLLABORATION CLAIMS: The victim of the Salisbury attack may have worked for the CNI (inset). on what he and officers discussed in their meetings remains classified. A retired Spanish police officer said intelligence services recruited Skripal due to his knowledge on Russian gangs. “We ignored the Russian phenomenon and its organised crime before. We did not know how they operated. Skripal offered a more precise idea of reality,” the source
said. Spanish intelligence services also recruited Alexander Litvinenko, another former spy who was poisoned with radioactive polonium in Britain in 2010. Prosecutors and police have both acknowledged that they worked with Litvinenko on organised crime. A lawyer acting for the former spy’s family said he was
planning on travelling to Spain to expose links between the Kremlin and leading Russian gangsters before his death. This has not been confirmed. Skripal was found unconscious along with his daughter Yulia in Salisbury in March this year. They were taking into intensive care and it was later revealed they had been exposed to the Soviet-era Novichok nerve agent. The incident has seen tensions between Russia and Britain and its allies escalate to levels not seen since the height of the Cold War. Several diplomats have been expelled by both countries and Britain issued a joint statement along with several other countries condemning the alleged involvement of the Kremlin in the attack. Alexander Petrov and Ruslan Boshirov, both Russian citizens, were charged by British prosecutors in absentia in connection with the poisoning. Russia has repeatedly denied any involvement. Investigations into the strike continue.

Fraud trial MALAGA’S Provincial Court has sentenced two defendants to six months in prison each and has ordered them to pay thousands to a travel company they were found guilty of defrauding. The defendants were convicted of cheating the company, which specialises in boat trips, out of almost €23,500. The court heard the two had fraudulently used bank cards for accounts from Spain as well as Germany, Austria and Italy to buy tickets for excur-
sions across the country. The company incurred a total of €23,491.43 in losses after banks discovered the money had been debited out of the accounts fraudulently. The court ordered the defendants to pay damages to the company equivalent to the money lost. The defendants also face separate proceedings over their alleged fraudulent use of bank cards to pay off road fines. Those proceedings remain ongoing.

THE BIG PICTURE Nº 31 E V E RY y e a r o n t h e t h i r d Sunday in September, the village of Alfarnate displays its devotion to its pat r o n s a i n t , t h e Vi rg i n o f Monsalud. It is also a unique celebration of the shared history of Christians and Moors living in the area. The tradition was lost for decades after the Spanish C i v i l Wa r b u t c a m e b a c k strong in the 1990’s. It marks a show of devotion to the Virgin from the community, for her protection and guidance over the years. There is a Eucharist in the church square, followed by a procession of the Virgin of Monsalud’s statue. Battles between Moors and Christians are also reenacted in the village, and writings from knights of the 18th century are read out. The temple in which the statue of the patron saint is housed dates back to the 16th century and takes pride of place in the village. Local people from all over the region flock to the festival to pay their respects and streets are lavishly decorated with flowers, plants and almond trees. Tr a d i t i o n a l s u i t s o f a r mour worn by the Knights are on display, while those representing the Moors wear turbans and robes. The photograph from the Alfarnate Town Hall Facebook page shows the village’s beloved patron saint in all her glory.

EWN online this week LIFT OFF: The ESA’s Galileo is currently made up of 26 satellites.
Taking flight THE European Space Agency (ESA) has awarded a €250 million contract to a Spanish company to run part of the body’s satellite navigation system. GMV, based in Tres Cantos in the Madrid region, is set to maintain and develop the ground operations for the Galileo programme. It is the largest contract in history in money terms awarded to the Spanish space industry. Jesus Serrano, the general director of GMV, said the company would now be responsible for the infrastructure which monitored and controlled all satellites in the GMV constellation. GMV saw off competition from three other companies to secure the contract which was signed after almost two years of negotiations. The firm is set to join a multinational consortium of companies that will manage the system. Galileo was established by the European Union (EU)-backed ESA in 2000 to rival the United States government-run Global Positioning System (GPS). The EU has invested some €10 billion in the programme since it began. Data collected by Galileo satellites is used in
mobile phones, cars, sea and other forms of land transport for navigational purposes. It is also used by fire, police and search and rescue services. Javier Benedicto, head of the Galileo programme, said the system had a margin of error of less than one metre. He added it was the only one which operated on three frequencies. Benedicto said the ESA planned to boost the number of satellites in orbit under the programme from the current 26 to 40. The increase would allow Galileo to be put to additional uses, he added. Augusto Gonzalez, a navigation advisor to the European Commission (EC), said: “The observations we are making tell us that Galileo is in line to become the leading satellite navigation system.” GMV representatives signed the ESA contract at a ceremony attended by Spain’s Science Minister Pedro Duque last week. Duque said it was a sign Spanish industry knew investing in science and technology would prove profitable in the long term. “This contract is a great example of the good work done over the years,” Duque said.

Minister resigns over masters scandal By Joe Gerrard
SPAIN’S Health Minister has resigned following claims of plagiarism and other irregularities over her masters degree. Carmen Monton, of the governing left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE), claimed she had committed
no wrongdoing over her final thesis which she withheld from the media. It is alleged that she copied several paragraphs of it from articles on the internet, including some from the online encyclopaedia Wikipedia. There are also claims that grades for the degree, from King Juan Carlos University
(URJC), were altered and that she did not attend several classes there. Monton resigned on Tuesday evening after buckling to pressure from the media and from those in her own party who called on her to go. The minister said she was resigning so the scandal would not continue to impact on the PSOE’s and Prime

OUR VIEW Summer’s over THE rain this weekend seems to have confirmed that summer is now over especially as the first wave of Spanish children went back to school last Monday and the rest return next week. There were areas where the rains were so heavy that cars were washed away and considerable damage was caused, but in other areas it wasn’t too bad and will help to fill aquifers as it stopped and started, allowing for much of the water to refresh the ground. In the Costa del Sol there will be less congestion as the holidaymakers from Madrid and Sevilla return home and those from North Africa have driven back to their places of work mainly in Spain, France and Italy. Another sign of the end of summer is the fact that those toll roads which hike their prices up to take advantage of holidaymakers will be reducing them and then counting the days to Christmas and Easter so that they can mark them up by 50 per cent or more again. Councils who have been staging free concerts and other entertaining diversions will be getting back to balancing their finances and preparing for the inevitable Fairs and Festivals yet to come. Some restaurants and bars will now close until Christmas if they have had a good summer and others who haven’t may not be able to keep going. Things will quieten down a bit, parking in many places will become easier and charities which help the elderly in particular will get back to hosting regular meetings, so let’s all look forward to a great autumn.

as her replacement. Monton said in her resignation statement that she was proud of what she had achieved in government. “We have recovered universal health care. We have laid the foundations for the approval of a law protecting children against violence. It’s a good balance for 100 days. “I am proud and grateful that the Prime Minister has counted on me in government. I have felt his human quality, his support and affection,” she said. Sanchez had backed Monton until hours before she departed. He thanked her for her work and called her decision to resign “brave.” Teodoro Garcia Egea, secretary general of the opposition conservative Partido Popular (PP), said the resignation showed the government was the weakest in recent history. The senior PP official also denied there were similarities between Monton’s case and that of his party’s leader Pablo Casado. Casado is accused of irregularities over a law masters he obtained from the URJC’s Law Institute. He has denied any wrongdoing and the investigation into the claims remains ongoing.

The company expects to reach 250 drivers in the city by the end of the year, and Pablo Sanchez said: “Our main objective is to improve the competitiveness of the Malaga taxi sector, as we have already done in Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia and Sevilla. “We have digitally transformed taxi services in Spain and adapted them to urban environments.” Mytaxi is currently offering a half-price deal for users of its app in Malaga. Some 61 per cent of the tourism it received last year came from abroad, mainly from the UK, Germany, and Italy, which is normally a big market for such apps.

RIDING HIGH: The company is likely to find plenty of demand in Malaga.
Panel power duces 200 kilowatts of power. These photovoltaic panels are installed on structures that have a solar tracking system on a northsouth axis, which enables the panels to face east in the morning, planes at noon and west in the afternoon. This achieves an increase in the uptake of solar
radiation by 17 per cent compared to a fixed installation, which means an increase in production of 22 per cent. Additionally, the photovoltaic cells used can generate energy with very low levels of solar radiation, ensuring a production from sunrise to sunset. The plant, in which Endesa invested €90 million, also has a system that allows disconnection during night hours, which makes it possible to minimise the consumption of the facility.

Divers rescue trapped immigrants SAVED: Guardia frogmen were called in.
GUARDIA CIVIL have rescued 10 immigrants who were trapped under a dock in Algeciras port. They had got trapped by the rising tide when they hid after jumping overboard from a boat in an effort to escape detection. The events occurred when the Maritime Rescue /Salvamento Maritimo) boat which had rescued them in the
Strait of Gibraltar entered port to disembark. The lower part of these docks has air chambers which allows them to act as breakwaters to maintain the safety of the ships at berth. But visibility is virtually nil and gravel and iron girders make access extremely difficult, so the immigrants became trapped.
Port bosses called in the Guardia Civil’s frogman unit (GEAS to rescue the trapped men in view of the danger posed by the rising tide. A team of four GEAS divers located the 10 people towards the end of one of the piers. They were transferred to a Guardia Civil boat before being landed and receiving medical attention.
House of prayer by Tara Rippin AFTER two months in construction, the first Russian Orthodox church in Andalucia and the third in Spain has been blessed in the Las Cañas creek zone. On Tuesday, the highest religious authority of the church in Europe, the bishop of Paris Nestor de Corsun, consecrated the works. The project, which is an investment of €1.1 million, has been promoted by the Orthodox Initiative Foundation on the Costa del Sol, a group that for years has sought a suitable location for their temple. Attempts failed in Marbella, where a budget of €4 million was on the table, and in Benahavis. After the religious ceremony, the bishop said that we live ‘in times in which the construction of a church is a rare event’ and
that in this case the temple ‘will give an even more special character to a wonderful place.’ He added that the church will be open to all Christians and the inhabitants. The future house of prayer, which will receive the denomination of the Temple of the Ascension of the Russian Orthodox Church, is built on a plot of 5,844 square metres and will have three elements, the temple, a socio-cultural centre and a park. The architect, Diego Tobal, explained that the temple is a ‘contemporary reinterpretation’ of a traditional Orthodox church topped with a dome. The vertical building, with capacity for 500 people, will also have a bell tower nine metres high. Work is expected to be completed by the end of 2019.

and possessed uniforms of workers at the companies they targeted. Officers claimed they rented vans with stolen documents from others to avoid detection. They also stole vehicles from the companies to transport the goods taken from them. Police seized items valued in excess of €1 million during raids which took place as part of the operation. The goods were taken from sites in Malaga Province and elsewhere in Andalucia. Proceedings for the case have been sent to the courts.

Cellmates plot bank job by Tara Rippin TWO ex-prisoners are believed to have hatched their plan to rob a bank in Algeciras while sharing a cell. The former cellmates, aged 30 and 47, are being held in connection with the raid where employees were threatened with a firearm and €2,800 was taken. According to police sources, one of the suspects entered the branch at 1.45pm on August 24, trying to hide his face so as not to be identified, and shouting ‘give me the money.’ All the while he was pointing
the gun at the member of staff. Threats were also directed at different customers who were queuing, forcing them further inside the building. The robber seized the money handed over, but as he was starting to flee, he dropped part of the cash, before heading out into the street where his ‘look out’ and getaway driver is said to have been waiting. Upon receiving the robbery alert, several police officers were deployed to the bank and began gathering evidence. This led to the identification
of two suspects who were finally arrested on the terrace of a restaurant in the San Jose Artesano neighbourhood. It then transpired that the detained have several records of robberies, and that they were cellmates in a Malaga prison, having been released just a few weeks earlier. They appeared before a duty judge in Algeciras, where one was released on charges and the second, presumed the actual robber, was admitted to the Botafuegos Penitentiary Centre in Algeciras.

DOCTORS have accused the Andalucian Health Service (SAS) of the ‘McDonaldisation’ of health centres. Primary Care doctors in Malaga will go on strike against the management of SAS on October 15, claiming they have an average of just six minutes to attend to each patient. They want this time increased to 10 minutes so that they can devote enough time to care for the sick. Antonio Marin, president of the Medical union of Malaga said the six-minute allotted time was “very close to the McDonald’s average to serve a hamburger worldwide.” The doctors are so worried about the situation that they have been carrying out a se-
ries of protests outside the Malaga’s health centres since June. They point out that doctors in the Basque Country are guaranteed a 10-minute consulting time with each patient and can’t see why they can’t be given the same. Marin said: “The marginalisation suffered by Malaga is clear,” adding that more family doctors and paediatricians are needed in the province. He said that SAS employs 40 per cent more Internal Medicine Residents for the province of Sevilla compared to Malaga, despite the two having a similar population. In addition Malaga’s population quadruples through tourism in the summer.

Plane named after Costa NEWS EXTRA Skin doctor Africa trip NUIRA BLAZQUEZ, a skin doctor at the Costa del Sol Hospital, has said her dermatology unit has received a €12,000 grant to travel to the town of Sanghe in Senegal to help children there.
MAX 8, has undergone its formal naming ceremony at Malaga airport. The traditional anointing of the plane with water was done by Carmen Enciso and Eloisa Navas, two writers from Malaga. The water itself was taken from the Fuente de los 100 Caños spring which flows into the Guadalhorce River. The waterway runs nearby to the airport. Francisco Javier Fernandez, the Junta de Andalucia’s tourism spokesperson, said the
plane would bear the name Costa del Sol as it travelled across the world. “The fact that a company like TUI would name an airplane after the Costa del Sol shows a commitment to the destination,” he said. Carmen Enciso, one of the writers who took part in the ceremony, said she was “thrilled” and “honoured” the plane had been named after the region. “Talking about the Costa del Sol is going back to my childhood. I was one of those girls
who lived in the slender of tourism in our region. “I am a woman whose love for my land has made it possible for Malaga to become the centre of my literature, as Roman Gomez de la Serna would say: ‘The book is a bird with more than a hundred wings to fly’,” she said. The plane was christened shortly before it took off on a flight to Ostend in Belgium. It was attended by officials including Fernandez, Jacobo Florido, the Costa del Sol Tourism board head and Sal-
vador Merino, general director of Malaga airport. Dirk van Holsbeke, a director with TUI Belgium and was also on hand for the ceremony. The plane is due to fly the route between Malaga and Ostend and is also set to serve other destinations. Marina Comas, of TUI’s West Mediterranean division, said the Costa del Sol was one of the most popular holiday destinations for visitors all over Europe. “Tourism unites people and cultures. Our airplanes are part
of that travel experience and they are a symbol of our association with destinations,” Comas said. Jacobo Florido, head of the Costa del Sol tourism board, said his organisation had been working with TUI to help improve links with the region and the rest of Europe. “The naming of the plane will further strengthen these bonds of union and this plane will become a new ambassador for the region which is visited by around 20 million people annually,” Florido said.

POLICE have arrested six men in connection with the alleged rape and robbery of a prostitute. The woman claims to have been hired by four of them for sexual services at a holiday home in Mijas last Saturday. On arrival, there were six men waiting, who then reportedly subjected the victim to coercion, death threats, beatings, insults and harassment, forcing her to have sex without consent, using a stick as a weapon. In addition ₏350 was apparently stolen from her bag, according to police sources. The attackers then drove the 46-yearold Venezuelan woman to the Las Chapas area in Marbella, and left her there. She immediately reported the incident to police in Mijas. But days later, she spotted her alleged attackers in Puerto Banus and informed the police of their whereabouts.

MEMBERS of the leftist Podemos party in Mijas have claimed council officials have acted like a ‘mafia’ in several cases now under investigation by the Guardia Civil. Francisco Martinez Avila, head of the party in the town, said Podemos members had seen a report drawn up by the Guardia Civil’s Central Operating Unit on the allegations. They concern claims that former officials sought to profit from the sale of homes authorities had improperly seized. He said the matters discussed in the report were “extremely serious” and contained a catalogue of irregularities. He added it amounted to a “mafia plot” at the heart of the council. The Guardia Civil’s report concerns Angel Nozal, of the conservative Partido Popular (PP), who was formerly the mayor of Mijas. It also implicates many officials who served under her, according to Martinez Avila. The Podemos member claimed the report suggested officials had in some cases seized properties from people, often deceased. They would then be sold on. Martinez Avila went on to claim earnings from the sales were then deposited in a secret bank account. The Guardia Civil has not confirmed the allegations. Angel Nozal had not publicly commented on the allegations earlier this year.

Oil spill concern FISHERIES, wildlife and areas of natural beauty could be at risk after a discharge of hydrocarbons was discovered, say Verdemar Ecologistas en Accion environmental group. They say the substance appears to be some sort of engine oil which is emerging from a rainwater sewer where the Charcones and Cañada Honda streams converge in El Zabal Alto at La Linea de la Concepcion (Cadiz). The sewer runs under industrial buildings before discharging into the streams. A smell from the discharge is discernible
from the road and the banks of the streams and vegetation are impregnated with the oil, which probably comes from an illegal outfall. Verdemar said once the oil reaches the sea it becomes a serious danger to the environment with ecologically important areas nearby. Although dissolved it will still enter the tissues of sea creatures and potentially affect their health and breeding. The group has now filed a complaint to the Ministry of Environment.
Suspect facing 12-year sentence A 57-YEAR-OLD man who worked as a Physical Education teacher at a secondary school in Marbella is facing a possible 12-year prison sentence for the alleged harassment of children and for possessing child pornography. An investigation was started by the Technological Crimes Group of the National Police, which suspected that the teacher was accessing child pornography on the internet from his home. As a result, a judge granted officers a warrant to search his home which led to the discovery of 800 CDs and DVDs containing child pornography. The defendant was teaching PE classes and had maintained contact with four former students, all under 14 years old, with whom he started a WhatsApp group. Prosecutors accuse the suspect of turning his conversations with the children towards sexual issues, and he even suggested meeting and to masturbate with them.

Grave Gibraltar Brexit talks Brexit worries for Spanish mayors as concerns negotiations continue halt works By Dilip Kuner & Joe Gerrard
FUENGIROLA’S council has contacted the Junta de Andalucia for clarification on building works in the town stopped due to concerns they may cross onto a Civil War era mass grave. Council officials made the request over extension works to the Bioparc zoo and the Parque del Sol. The officials are concerned the works may violate historical memory laws. The Junta de Andalucia’s democratic memory department, which oversees Civil War sites in the province, halted the works last week but has not yet said they can resume. Javier Giraldez, the Junta de Andalucia’s democratic memory spokesperson, said the grave could hold as many as 28 bodies. Those buried at the site were likely victims of purges from former dictator and head of the nationalist rebels during the Civil War Francisco Franco, he added. The Junta put a stop to the works when information about the grave came to light. Officials do not know exactly where the grave is but they said it was in the vicinity of the works. The Bioparc extension is around 95 per cent complete, according to council sources. Works at the Parque del Sol are yet to commence.
SPAIN’S Foreign Minister has said London and Madrid are making “good progress” over Gibraltar’s post-Brexit arrangements amidst concerns from Spanish and British officials. Josep Borrell said there were a number of outstanding points to discuss such as price differences in tobacco, the enclave’s airport and hospital admissions. He added these were “technical” points. Borrell said he was hopeful a deal could be reached ahead of the finalising of the rest of Britain’s Withdrawal Agreement from the European Union (EU) later this year.

was committed to including Gibraltar in “all aspects” of the negotiations. She added London would not accept any veto on the matter. “I’m very happy to give that reassurance and commitment on behalf of this government,” she said in answer to a question in Parliament. The mayors of Algeciras and La Linea are worried that the Spanish government seems to have ‘relaxed’ over the issue that potentially affects thousands of people in the Campo de Gibraltar area. Most belligerent in his criticism is Juan Franco, mayor of La Linea. He has never forgotten the crisis that happened when General Franco closed the border in 1969. There was a mass exodus and
hundreds of families on both sides of the border were separated. It was an economic disaster for many people who worked in Gibraltar but lived in Spain. Juan Franco has been equally harsh on the previous PP (right wing) and present PSOE (socialist) governments, saying that no measures are being adopted and that the passivity of the Spanish Executive in this matter is disastrous. “There are only seven months left for Brexit to take place. In spite of having spoken to all the institutions with decision-making powers, there is not a single specific measure for La Linea de la Concepcion,” he pointed out. He added: “We are suffering the effects from the day after the 2016 referendum when the pound devalued. This is affecting Spanish workers in Gibraltar and is being felt in spending in our city.” The mayor of Algeciras, José Ignacio Landaluce (PP), who is also chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee in the Senate, highlighted the weakness of the British negotiators in this matter and said that the current situation makes the agreements very complicated. Landaluce is demanding measures and priority treatment for the Campo de Gibraltar. He added that the most important point was that local people should not be affected and that “Gibraltar and the Campo de Gibraltar can develop together.”
Suicidal woman saved THE National Police have saved the life of a 78-year-old woman who tried to commit suicide at her home in Torremolinos. She had called her daughter on Tuesday evening to say “this time you will not get there in time” before cutting her wrists and neck. However, officers were

REAL MADRID star Isco has run into snags in his plans to rejuvenate a commercial centre in the middle of Arroyo de la Miel. He had ambitious plans to build another floor on the San Juan building in the heart of his home town. He and his family have already bought the first floor and several ground floor locales. Unfortunately a technical report has shown that the 40-year-old building’s central pillars will not take the weight of an extra floor so he is now having to rethink his plans. He had intended to open a gourmet food market as well as several big name fashion stores. The bad news means he is reportedly dropping the market scheme. The San Juan building, in the heart of Arroyo, houses some of Benalmadena’s most popular restaurants. The project to fit out a shopping centre on its upper floor is still being drafted, although a planning application is expected to be submitted in the coming weeks. Isco’s intention is to revive the economy of the area and his representatives have held talks with the Benalmadena Council and the Junta de Andalucia for months to discuss the possibilities of increasing the height of this centre, an option now rendered impossible. This is not the first time that Isco has made an investment in his native town; in 2015 he opened, together with his brother Antonio, a shoe shop in Calle San Juan, also in Arroyo de la Miel.

Cleaning up THE first Seabin in Gibraltar has been installed at the Small Boats Marina. The floating debris interception device collects litter by drawing in water from the sea surface which then passes through a catch bag. Each device has the ability to collect over half a ton of debris per year, including microplastics under two millimetres small. It’s hoped the Seabin Pilot Project, put in place by the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Climate Change, will encourage the deployment in all of Gibraltar’s marinas and help continue to raise awareness on the impacts of plastic pollution.

Dozens of firefighters and national, local and civil protection officers attended the funeral last week, together with the 51-year-old’s widow and the mayor of Torremolinos Jose Ortiz. During the memorial, colleagues sounded the sirens of their trucks to applause while several of their companions carried the coffin on their shoulders. Alejandro, who provided training within the emergency services for 15 years, was a graduate in Teaching in the
Physical Education modality and practised apnea, an exercise consisting of holding his breath, to improve his lung capacity. But last Tuesday, when he was with his two children, in the pool of his home, he died while carrying out the activity. Alejandro was attended initially by a neighbour with knowledge in first aid. Although he performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation manoeuvres, he could not do anything to save his life. Witnesses claim the ambulance took almost an hour to arrive, but the Public Health Emergencies Company (061) alleges the waiting time was within 19 minutes of the call being made.
EVERY day in Spain, dozens of people’s lives are saved by crucial blood donations. The majority of surgeries, organ transplants and cancer treatments which are performed each day require blood transfusions. Moreover, despite huge technological advances, the only way for hospitals to obtain this blood is through the generosity of the public. Those interested in making a donation will be asked to provide some personal and medical information and documentation, to prove their identity. The process of the blood donation itself lasts only 10 minutes in which 450ml are collected (equating to 10 per cent of the total blood circulation of an adult person). It is a completely safe procedure with minimal side effects, and every precaution is taken by medical staff for the health of the donor. If you want to donate blood in Spain you can do this at your local hospital or health centre, who will be happy to provide all the information. It can also be done through the Spanish Red Cross (www.donarsangre.org), which operates a number of mobile units specifically for these donations.

FRENCH troops are set to invade Mijas this weekend. The town is recreating the events of 1810 when Napoleon’s army marched into the Costa del Sol town. It will focus on the events of May and September 1810 when the municipality was invaded and then subjected to two-anda-half years of repression. The recreation will start on Saturday in the Plaza de la Libertad-Museum House where a proclamation calling for the defence of the town will be read - just as it was by the then mayor in 1810. Great pains have been taken for historical accuracy. The church bells will be rung to warn villagers of the approach of the French army, while a rider will recreate the journey of a messenger from Malaga bringing news of the fall of Malaga. The action then moves to the Plaza de la Constitucion where the ‘last night of freedom’ will be celebrated. On Sunday at 12.15pm, there will be a tribute to Mijas natives who belonged to the Infantry Regiment of Malaga and there will also be a historical recreation.

Anthem copy claims
HIGH STAKES: The EIB needs its shareholders to plug the Brexit gap.
EIB stakes its future THE European Investment Bank (EIB) is considering allowing countries to increase their capital stake in it after Britain’s withdrawal from the EU and the bank next year. Brexit will mean that the EIB will lose €3.5 billion of British paid-in capital, but the EU has said that the shortfall will be replenished by other shareholders on a proportional basis. The EIB relies on its Triple A credit rating to borrow on the market and then lend on for investment projects, and is the world’s largest multilateral borrower and lender. It works closely with EU institutions to implement EU policy, but replacing UK money after Brexit will be important for the EIB to
keep its top credit rating. Poland is known to want to increase its stake in the EIB, and its economy has grown significantly since it entered the European Union in 2004, from a GDP of €187 billion then to around €530 billion now. It is therefore bigger than Sweden, Denmark, Belgium and Austria, all of which have bigger stakes in the EIB. Poland has revealed it is ready to invest up to €10 billion into the EIB in return for a permanent vice president at the bank. The biggest shareholders in the EIB, apart from Britain, are Germany France, Spain and Italy, and Spain would like to raise its holding.
COVER SONG: Spain’s anthem may have been written by a Moor.
by Joe Gerrard SPAIN’S national anthem may have been based on a song composed in Andalucia during its time under Moorish rule, according to a video posted on social media. The video, posted by La
Plataforma, plays the Marcha Real before then playing another piece which according to some sources was written by the Moor Ibn Bayyah, or Avempace. Carlos Sanchez, a Twitter user who shared the video, wrote on the site: ‘I just discovered that the Spanish anthem is a copy of an Andalucian song and I’m freaking out.’ Some users commented saying the song and the anthem bore little resemblance to each other. Others said it was another example of Spain’s borrowing from other cultures to create the country’s national identity. “The flag was taken from the Catalan navy, the chotis dance is
German, the Bourbon royal family are French and according to a study ‘Castilian’ comes from Catalan,” Twitter user Zontar el Gran i Casamajor said. Avempace’s composition, named Nuba al-Istihlal, is a nubah, a type of classical music written in Andalucia during the Moorish era to accompany the singing of poems. It would be the world’s oldest song used as an official national anthem if claims are true. The Moors were a group of Muslims from North Africa and Arabia who ruled much of Spain and Portugal from 711 to 1492. They also had territories in Sicily, Sardinia, Corsica and Malta in the Medieval era.

Irregular immigrants will also be required to pay 40 per cent of the costs of prescriptions.

proof they were not already covered overseas. The previous PP government revoked the right of immigrants to access health care in 2012. Mariano Rajoy, the then Prime Minister, claimed Spain’s health system was becoming unsustainable due to inefficiency and poor management. The Network of Complaint and Resistance to Royal Decree 16/2012 (REDER) was formed after Rajoy’s abolition of healthcare for immigrants. They claim more than 4,755 people were excluded from Spain’s health system since 2014 as a result of the former PP government’s measures. A total of 322 of these were children and 194 were pregnant women, according to their statistics. A study from the Pompeu Fabra University found there had been an increase in the immigrant death rate of 15 per cent since the PP abolished their coverage.

Unions have highlighted a series of reasons for the strike, including: preventing trade union freedom for employees; not recognising wage, social security and welfare rights; and using recruitment person-

For its part, Ryanair said: “Ryanair’s people have enjoyed significant pay increases, improved terms and conditions, and we have agreed to improved seniority structures, base transfers and annual leave. “We have done this in a year when we expect profits to fall by 15 per cent due to a combination of higher fuel prices and higher staff costs.”

Cataluña day rallies Marches in Barcelona amidst independence calls by Joe Gerrard CATALAN independence supporters took to the streets of Barcelona in their thousands to mark the region’s annual holiday last Tuesday. The city was filled with marchers bearing the Catalan flag as well as some who called for independence on the National Day of Cataluña, or Diada. More than 440,000 people registered for the event, according to the Catalan National Asse m b l y ( AN C ). Around 400,000 registered in 2017. Quim Torra, the president of the region’s Generalitat, renewed his call for another independence referendum almost one year after the previous vote last October. He said National Day was a “demonstration for freedom.” “People should fill the
streets in the name of freedom, justice, democracy and the republic,” Torra said. Police officials had called on Torra to increase officer numbers on the streets ahead of National Day. Torra said the region needed investment in infrastructure rather than for law enforcement. An estimated 2,000 people turned out to pro Spanish unity demonstrations on Avenida Paral-lel in Barcelona last Saturday ahead of Tuesday’s marches. Some carried placards which read: ‘No pacts with terrorists or separatists.’ Businessman Jose Manuel Opazo attended the rally along with Santiago Abascal, president of Vox along with other members of the farright party. Abascal said the only solution to the ongoing indepen-
RALLYING: Cataluña’s National Day typically attracts thousands of protestors. dence push was the revoking of Cataluña’s autonomy, the dissolution of the Mossos d’Esquadra police force and the banning of pro-independence parties. Torra said such groups had every right to protest in
favour of Spanish unity. “Diada is for the Catalan Republic. If other groups want to make one for federalism then let them do it, but I will not join them,” he said. The marches come as Catalan officials have begun dis-
cussions with Madrid on how to move forward on the independence issue. Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said he would consider backing a referendum on greater powers for the region but added independence was not an option. Torra said he remained in contact with Sanchez and they planned to hold talks at the end of this month or in October. “We have raised the flag of dialogue with the new Prime Minister. We have offered to discuss these issues with the Spanish state,” Torra said. Maria Jose Segarra, Spain’s Attorney General, said Cataluña could not be treated as an exceptional case constitutionally. “There can be no exceptions to the rules. The opposite is the very bankruptcy
of democracy itself,” Segarra said. Spain’s Constitutional Court ruled last year that the independence referendum and declaration that followed were illegal under the Constitution. The ruling led to arrest warrants being issued for leading pro-Catalan independence politicians including former President Carles Puigdemont over their part in the secession push. Many, including Puigdemont, remain abroad and some have been imprisoned ahead of their trials on rebellion charges. Puigdemont recently filed a lawsuit in Belgium, where he currently lives, against Supreme Court judge Pablo Llarena claiming he was not impartial when he issued a warrant for his arrest.

Arms sale back on SPAIN has allowed the previously cancelled delivery of hundreds of bombs to Saudi Arabia to go ahead to save a ship building contract, government officials said. Madrid was concerned that a deal worth more than €1.8 billion between Riyadh and the ship building firm Navatia was jeopardised after the sale was cancelled. Thousands of jobs are riding on the contract to build five corvettes for the Royal Saudi Navy. “The deal is back on course. There will be no Saudi reprisals,” government sources said. The same sources added the incident could ‘take its toll’ on relations between Madrid and Riyadh. The u-turn follows meetings last week between Spanish defence officials and Prince Mansour Khalid Al Farhan Al Saud, the Saudi ambassador in Madrid. Margarita Robles, Spain’s De-

RETHINK: Riyadh has ordered five ships from Navatia. fence Minister, went before Parliament this week to explain the situation which she said had been blown out of proportion. It comes as several NGOs called on the government to stand by the scrapping of the sale of 400 laser guided missiles to Riyadh. The groups are concerned the weapons could be used in the ongoing Yemen Civil War.
Isabel Celaa, a government spokesperson, said the some 6,000 workers employed directly or indirectly in connection with the programme could rest assured that officials had found a solution. “The government wishes to maintain our excellent relations with Saudi Arabia,” Celaa said. The cancellation was a ‘declaration of intentions’ that had not
been finalised and would now be examined, the spokes-person added. Xiana Mendez, Spain’s Commerce Secretary, said the government would not jeopardise the Navatia contract. Jobs at Navatia’s shipyards were a ‘priority,’ Mendez added. The earlier cancellation followed similar decisions from the governments of Canada and Germany over concerns the weapons were being used in the Yemen Civil War which has claimed civilian lives. Riyadh had already sent the €9.2 million for the bombs and a transport company was awaiting the go ahead to ship them to Sau-
di Arabia before Robles cancelled the deal. Jesus Peralta, chairman of the works council at Navatia’s shipyard in San Fernando in Cadiz Province, previously said he and his colleagues would fight to save the contract. “If we do not make the corvettes, another one will do it. We have been making warships for 300 years,” the trade union official said. NGOs including Oxfam, Amnesty International and Greenpeace have called on the government to stand by its decision to cancel the deal. “Spain cannot continue supplying arms to the Saudi coalition because it runs the risk of being an accomplice in crimes under international law,” the groups said. Spain sold a total of €932 million in arms to Saudi Arabia from 2015 to 2017, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI). Around 6.2 per cent of all Saudi arms imports come from Spain. The Yemen Civil War has claimed the lives of between 10,000 and 50,000 people, including 6,592 civilians. Thousands more have died due to disease and famine in the country.
Search underway POLICE have expanded the search for a Spanish Legionnaire wanted in connection with the death of his 35-year-old partner to cover the whole of Spain. Officers have been surveying airports and harbours as they continue to trace Jose Luis Gallego Sanchez, the chief suspect in the police probe into the death of Eva Bou. Bou was found dead in her home in Borriol in the Valencia Region’s Castellon Province last Friday.
Gallego Sanchez has since been reported missing and officers fear he may attempt to leave the country. A total of 30 women have been killed in Spain by their partners or expartners in cases of gender violence so far this year. If Gallego Sanchez is found to be responsible for Bou’s death it would mark the first case of gender violence in the province so far this year. The investigation continues.

Refusal of property keys back by the Bank Costa Luz Lawyers By María L. de Castro Lawyer. Director. Costaluz Lawyers
WHAT if the Bank refuses to accept my property keys back? Not the end of the story: Monitor and oppose if: (a) Your mortgage deeds have abusive clauses which can stop or void the repossession: anticipated maturity clause, lack of communication of the sale of the mortgage debt to a vulture fund, floor clause, IRPH… (b) The enforcement procedure is being
according to Law. (c) Value given to the property for auction is correct, mainly if Banks are respecting the minimums established by Law as a barrier for them not to bargain with mortgage debtor rights. In most cases, your pending debt is below the value a Bank can repossess the property for, so it is for mutual benefit that an agreement is signed. Offer a prospective buyer -even for a very low price - and possibilities of a quick settlement will increase significantly. There are always arguments before a standard denial by the Bank. Keep the fight up! And if you need a lawyer for this, please contact us at mailto:web@costaluzlawyers.es.

Compared to the same quarter
by Tara Rippin of last year, the GDP of the eurozone and the EU grew by 2.1 per cent in the second quarter, while in the next two it had risen 2.4 per cent and 2.3 per cent respectively. With the emphasis remaining on the second quarter of the year, the countries that have seen the highest growth have been Malta (1.9 per cent), Estonia and Romania (both 1.4 per cent), while the lowest rates have been registered in
Denmark, Greece, France and Italy (all 0.2 per cent). Spain, although it has not led the growth of the region, has been slightly above the average with a rate of 0.4 per cent. In the second quarter of this year, the final consumption expenditure of households rose by 0.2 per cent in the eurozone and by 0.3 per cent in the EU, after registering both areas a progression of 0.5 per cent in the three previous months.

Mr Alvarez attributed Popular’s problems to its low profitability which made it impossible to raise the capital necessary to avoid a takeover. He also warned the government against introducing new taxes into the financial sector, stating that Spain faces competition from large international banks whose tax burden is lower.

Government directed assassinations? LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT ALL governments are not only capable, but often only too ready to use assassination as a means to a favourable end. Motives of course may differ. This latest effort, which was obviously the work of the Russian hierarchy and perpetrated as a warning to like-minded defectors, is not an exception. ‘Accidents,’ that conveniently solve political or embarrassing internal scandal issues have been around since the Neanderthals. And the British government are no slouches at it either. All the ‘holier than thou’ shock and horror reaction to this latest Novichok attack is simply because it was perpetrated on British soil by a foreign country. Morally the UK hasn’t a leg to stand on. It is my firm belief that, even during my relatively short existence, I have witnessed at least three, glaringly obvious ‘removals’ of fellow human beings, who one way or another posed a threat to the establishment. The first was the apparent ‘suicide’ of Stephen Ward during the Perfumo trial of the 60’s. This man was as deeply involved in that whole squalid affair as it was possible to be and so were others, whose names never came to the surface. Ward simply couldn’t believe
APPARENT SUICIDES: Dr Kelly who ended his life in a field and Jill Dando (inset) who was shot on the doorstep of her home. that he was to be sentenced the next day and that even his refusal to divulge the names of others involved (who were heavily rumoured to be royalty!) was not going to save him. Without doubt, he was going to enter the court the following day and shop the lot. But he never made it did he? That night he managed to ‘commit suicide’! Just Google up the
footage of his body being taken from his apartment. No nurses or medics accompanied that stretcher. He was surrounded and hustled out very quickly, by men in suits! Two more recent events also took some swallowing. One was the apparent suicide of the unfortunate Dr Kelly, who allegedly managed to voluntarily end his life in a field, after threatening
to blow the whistle on Blair’s so-called ‘sexed up’ blatant lies about Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction. A number of other scientists who worked in the same Porton Down defence establishment have also met questionable deaths since his bizarre demise. Another was the shooting of Jill Dando on the steps of her home in 1999. Jill Dando was the leading anchor of BBC TV’s Crimewatch and was, at the time, preparing to release explosive details of a leading paedophile ring she had been investigating. Her rather convenient, still unsolved murder, did of course put an end to this investigation and the subsequent unmasking of any high-profile individuals who may have been involved in it. Judges, politicians, police, pop singers? Who knows? Not us minions for sure. And with the elite of the country prepared to go to any lengths to protect their rear ends, we probably never will. Many thanks for all of last week’s mail. However, to the one sad individual, that turned a small spelling error into a three-act play, (I really do know the difference between emphasise and empathise) all I can say is get a life!

RECENTLY we’ve been bombarded with a flurry of reports from consumer watchdog ‘Which?’ that basically confirm how nervewracking flying’s become! According to one survey, flight times have been quietly padded out by up to 30 minutes by major airlines (British Airways, Ryanair etc) to ensure they don’t arrive late and thereby avoid compensation for delays. According to another report, Luton’s won the title of Britain’s worst airport for the third year in a row. What an achievement. Well done Luton! Passenger activity at airports fundamentally boils down to three things: departing, arriving and waiting. Airport passengers are a captive audience, with disposable income, time on their hands, and literally nowhere else to go. So is it surprising airports are scrupulously designed to make you spend your hard-earned cash? Well, they might think those wretched ‘serpentine’ duty free shops smelling like a tart’s parlour you’re forced to traipse through after security are inclined to make you spend, certainly not with me or anyone I know. After the invariably long, often irri-

Holidays from hell, and that’s just the airport!
DREAMBOAT OR DREAMBOARD: No budget at airport for passengers. tating experience at security, the first thing I want to do is find somewhere quiet to sit down and recover. Airport shops also baffle me. A suitcase? I’ve just checked mine in so why do I want to buy one now that undoubtedly won’t be permitted on the plane? Booze is often cheaper at the destination and chocolates often cost up to 50 per cent more than locally. And who buys all those emergency ties and underwear?
Oh, and I left off: the security checks that on one occasion lasted as long as the flight; the dreadful, overpriced terminal food; the sense that every official involved in the process is trying to catch you out and send you to the back of an ever-growing queue; the bag-drop cattle-like queues; IT glitches; the poor signage; the car parking rip-off charges; the wait for the lack-of-courtesy bus. The mindless consumerism of terminal shopping, (plus interminable flight delays) is to calm and peace of mind what Trump is to feminism! OK, rant over. Next scandal, please!

LEGALLY SPEAKING
Can community ban lets? Last week we held our community AGM. On the published agenda was the question: should we allow touristic lets, YES or NO? We heard arguments from both sides and the item was put to the vote and the result was NO. Some of those who voted YES became upset and said they did not accept the vote. Then our administrator said that we had been too hasty in our decision and that in a month, we should bring the item back at an extraordinary general meeting, even though we had more than three weeks notice that this was a agenda item. Can they really attempt to reverse the vote? D C (Mallorca) Yes they can. David Searl However, the You and the Law real question here is in Spain whether the community in fact has the power to prohibit short-term touristic rentals. Unless the community’s original Statutes state that tourist rentals are prohibited, or may be prohibited by majority vote, the community does not have the legal power to prohibit such rentals. The original Statutes can only be modified by unanimous vote, which does not seem likely in this case.

A new chapter for Laude San Pedro International College JOINING a new school as the Principal is a very exciting honour. It is one which has great responsibilities and I am very mindful of this as I am joining Laude San Pedro International College. Schools are extremely complex organisations to lead and develop, but I think that happiness, understanding the school’s culture, celebrating our international advantages and building a strong community will enable ambitious, sustainable improvements. I have always believed that the most important key to success in schools, as in life, is that we are happy. If children are happy at school they will be able to engage actively in their learning and take part in all of the academic and enrichment opportunities available to them. I knew that I would be able to tell very quickly if I would be happy in the school when I first came for my interview. At that time I was immediately struck by the sense of family amongst the pupils and staff, as well as the high expectations of the school team and those within the International School Partnership. I could see that San Pedro International is a great school with amazing learning taking place in all areas, as evidenced by the recent external exam results, which are well above the UK average for A level and GCSE results. Every child, family and member of staff has their own individual needs and experiences and it takes time to understand these properly. One of the greatest challenges for any new
A word from the new Principal
STREETS AHEAD: Encouraging ambition, aspiration and achievement. Head is taking the time to stop, observe and understand the culture of the school. However, it is the most important thing to do, so that ongoing developments will have a positive impact within the community over a sustained period of time. Every parent and family knows that each school has its own character and unique ‘feeling’ which can be hard to describe, but it is one of the most important reasons why they might choose that school for their children. It is a combination of the educational, human, physical and emotional environment/ provision which sets each school apart from each other and creates a personal ethos. It is very important that whilst I work to under-
stand and improve the provision we make for children, families and staff we do not lose the many amazing aspects of Laude San Pedro. In our ever changing world in which politics, trade and human relations are increasingly impacted upon by globalisation and technology I am in a very fortunate position to be able to celebrate the vibrant, multi-cultural population that we have here. With 50 nationalities the school offers a truly international experience and I am so looking forward to learning about this from the children and families. Our students will leave as confident multilinguists, and will have benefitted from learning within an international curriculum, as well as the national curriculum for England
and Wales. Most importantly though they will have friends and peers from all over the world and they will be internationally minded, global citizens. These qualities along with their academic achievements, will enable them to study and work across borders with no geographical barriers to their aspirations. The communication and relationship between families, staff and students are essential, if we are to have a positive community built upon strong foundations. From the traditional school celebrations and events, to the way we communicate with each other: all of these aspects need to be considered and understood within the local environment, so that we can all benefit from a respectful and ambitious framework. By developing parent/family relationships to help communicate the many positive aspects of the school, I hope that we will all enjoy working together, so that the children’s learning and day-to-day experiences are at the heart of everything we do. So as I have now moved my home and family to San Pedro de Alcántara, I am looking forward to learning with and working alongside the children, staff and families so that together, we can achieve great things for everyone in our care. Amanda Hughes Principal, Laude San Pedro International College.

by Adam Whalley-Lewis LET’S start this week with a triplet of thank you messages. Firstly, thank you for the TV emails, I love reading them and will try to get around to looking at all of your suggestions. Just for the record and in particular in reply to Susan447 in Costa Blanca North, no the picture isn’t me, I think it’s an emoji-typething… Secondly, thank you to new pals Pam and John who I met in Gibraltar, via a much delayed flight to the UK and my lovely other half, for the email about their viewing habits, more on that below and finally, thank you to my wonderful parents who celebrate 50 years of marriage this week, love to you both. How are you getting on watching the Bodyguard and Vanity Fair? They are both grabbing the ratings back in the UK. I’m still not convinced about Vanity, but the Bodyguard is an absolute winner. Told you it would be. A sure sign that Christmas can’t be too far away (yes, Christmas, not The Holidays, we don’t live in Florida) is the start of Strictly Come Dancing, or Strictly as we will call it. I say start, more of a limp into the new season last weekend and then a two week break. Strictonites will love it, I like the music, but
GOGGLEBOX: A few new faces as well as some of the regulars. let’s wait and see if the dancing is up to scratch. Not necessarily connecting to Christmas, Gogglebox is back on Channel 4, Fridays and via catch up. There are a few new faces but I’m pleased to say some of the regulars remain. I’m really pleased that Giles, Mary and their wonderful thatched cottage are back -
Are you a psychopath? Mike Senker In my opinion Views of a Grumpy Old Man AFTER 30 odd years of being together and three years of her tidying up my articles, I am proud to announce Mrs S today officially became Mrs Grumpy after nearly starting World War Three in the post office. Well, a very English, Berkshire brought up version of a world war. So here’s why Mrs Grumpy kicked off and how she did it. She wanted to pay an electric bill - not even ours I might add. Endesa was mobbed so we decided to go to the post office where there was the standard one person serving and there was just one person being served. Mrs S was next to be served. After 15 minutes waiting and a bit of eyebrow raising exchange with the man who was now next to be served after Mrs S, Patti felt she had no choice but to begin the ‘tut’ combined with a ‘huff’ combination. This is the standard British way of signalling one’s discontent to anyone who might be interested. After this elicited no response whatsoever from the lady being served or from the woman serving her, Patti went full blown into the demonic waving of the said electric bill swiftly followed by the adoption of the classic

war pose - hands on hips whilst continuing to tut and huff - this is no mean feat! What was really annoying was that the customer was filling out forms and putting addresses on envelopes and, of course, what she should have done was go to one side to do that so other people could be served, and then come back when her admin was completed. I personally never understand why people don’t speak up - I would have said, ‘excuse me love - pop over there and do that,’ but Mrs S seemingly prefers the mime method of communication. The bottom line is no-one took any notice of my wife’s valiant attempts to move things along, even though the fellow Brit behind her had joined in the huffing and tutting therefore making a two pronged attack. So 30 minutes later, with a queue now snaking out of the door, our friend’s electric bill was duly paid and Mrs S was feeling murderous. Whilst I talked her down in the car we decided that people here in Spain who work in banks, post offices, utility companies etc must have to undergo a psychological evaluation before they are taken on to ensure they are a psychopath. That’s the only sure way of maintaining the lack of empathy, lack of guilt and lack of eye contact. It’s an art - shallow emotional response traits found in all these workers plus in all psychopaths. mikesenker@gmail.com
wouldn’t you just love to see around the rest of their home, rather than just their TV corner - can you imagine what their taste in pillows and throws is like? The two London based all-about-town girls seem to be fun, but maybe they should watch a little bit more TV and eat a little bit less popcorn, just a thought? Whilst we are in Goggle-
land, where did Channel 4 find the two friends from South Shields, you know, fake tan, portrait of The Queen and statue of The Madonna all in the same room? You might remember that my brother lives on the north east coast in Shields and he doesn’t have any sort of tan or any regal pictures. I will come back to you on the statue point, need to be careful on that one. I need to mention X Factor. Sorry, but I do. Did you see Robbie steal Andy’s thunder and self promote his own song? I’m a Robbie fan, but he didn’t need to belt out Angels and push Andy to the side. We know Mr Williams is amazing, but surely the contestant should have been given centre stage? So, to Pam and John’s TV choices. It’s probably Pam’s choice if I’m honest, but what choices they are. You will need to hunt down Succession, probably via a Dish or something similar. This is a US drama focused on the Roy family and their media empire. Jerry Hall should look away at this point. Fans of James Patterson’s Murder Games should look out for Instinct, again via satellite. Expect a gritty police drama which focuses on being realistic and which gets procedure and process spot on. Happy Viewing. HappyViewing1@outlook.com

STONE FREE: Kidney stone patients could soon be riding roller coasters on doctors’ orders.
Trivia from around the world *** Paris is home to the largest community of Portuguese people outside of Portugal. *** South Koreans are classified at birth by their blood type. Blood types are significant in South Korean culture and can even impact on who people marry. *** The cuy, or guinea pig, is considered a
delicacy in Ecuador where it is roasted whole and is said to taste similar to rabbit. *** The Atlas film studios near Ouarzazate in Morocco is known as the country’s Hollywood. Scenes from Lawrence of Arabia, Gladiator and Kundun were all shot there. *** No census has been undertaken in
Lebanon since 1932 due to political concerns over the different religious groups who live there. *** People in Kazakhstan are superstitious about whistling inside a building. Some believe that those who do will be plagued by bad luck for the rest of their lives.
DID YOU KNOW? Research has shown that riding roller coasters can help people who have kidney stones to get them out of their bodies. A study which appeared in the Journal of the American Osteopathic Association after people with the illness said the stones had been expelled after riding Disneyland’s Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. One man claimed to have gone on three times and that one stone passed after each ride.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20) There is a lightness to this week that is welcome. After more than a little bit of aggravation and frustration of late it is overdue. Someone you believed had lost interest in you suddenly surfaces. You may be unsure of how to react, so save judgment.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) A need to listen to your innermost feelings and needs has perhaps been overlooked. With the hustle and bustle of everyday life, philosophical thoughts are often pushed into a corner. Even so, you owe it to yourself to truly consider what you want as opposed to going along with what others want from you.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) Someone you would not normally consider to be a friend shows an interest in you. Your immediate reaction may be joy or suspicion. In fact, you are not quite sure what to think. All the same, try to put aside preconceived ideas and give them a chance.

why and maybe believe that you do. However, be sure to get all the facts. Asking outright questions of the person involved is your best chance of getting the right answers. Someone may urge you to ‘read between the lines’ but it is hardly necessary.
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) With so much energy around you, it will be hard to concentrate on business matters. Finances, however, do require your attention and a brief period of scrutiny will show you why. Someone close may be spending too much or undermining the situation by making big plans.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) Nostalgia overtakes you and an urge to look back into the past is strong. Perhaps you are thinking of tracing your family tree. It may be that you have received a letter or phone call that aroused your curiosity. Whatever it is, do be aware that any decisions made this week could have farreaching effects, for the good as well as the ‘not so good’.
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) When you start to worry too much about things, it is time to take a step back. Senseless worrying is when you really cannot do anything to change the situation. Take into account how, in the past, worrying has affected your well-being. Maybe it is time to walk away and take another path entirely. Some may not be happy about this. You must come first now.
SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) This is a creative week and one in which you seek to find your talents. For some time now you have toyed with the idea of joining a club or group. This will enhance your social life and bring you laughter. Although your confidence has been a little lower than usual, you have the chance to impress someone important to you.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) Life can get complicated at this time of the year and you may feel pulled in more than one direction. You are perfectly entitled to change your mind about an arrangement. Those who try to make you feel guilty may be thinking only of themselves, and what does that tell you?

The pilot has been forced to touch down in Entebbe, Uganda and all Jewish passengers on board have been ransomed in exchange for the release of terrorists in Israeli prisons.

THANKS Leapy for your Article on PM May’s visit to Africa. As a British Civil Engineer, I worked in South Africa for more than 40 years and like the majority of ‘whites’ was pleased to see the end of apartheid and even voted for the ANC in the first democratic election in 1994. South Africa WAS a First World Country with a well-developed infrastructure including power, water supply and treatment, modern roads designed and built in the 1970’s which make the N340 here on the Costa del Sol look like a farm track for use by cattle, to say nothing of the visual intrusion caused by the multitude of rusting advertising hoardings which litter both sides of the carriageway. In SA there were many hospitals caring for all races including Groote Schuur, famous for the first heart transplant and Baragwanath in Johannesburg, the third largest in the world. Industry and cuttingedge mining technology were competently managed by professionally qualified staff and, to my knowledge, no person was promoted to a position without the necessary experience. Today sadly, this is no longer the case - your political orientation is the only factor. No doubt the lefty-liberal bleeding-heart PC brigade will jump on me and play the

DEAR Editor, The Spanish government has raised pensions by 0.25 per cent and if you receive IPREM of €7,519.59 / annum, this means the increase is less than €20 this year. Now in order to receive a Bono Social of 25 per cent discount on your electricity bill, new conditions come into force on October 8, 2018. • You have to be registered at your town hall and have DNI doc • Your total pension (UK and Spanish) must be less than 1.5 x IPREM = (€11,280) • You must use less than 1,680 KWh / annum This is a killer requirement, since being a Yorkshireman, I am extremely frugal with electric and my electricity statement with graphs shows I used 3,467 KWh / annum. In my case during the winter here Dec, Jan, Feb, Mar and April I used three times the average to keep warm. race-card for daring to suggest that SA is going the way of its northern neighbour,
DO YOU QUALIFY?: Check it out. My conclusion is that for pensioners (Spanish and English) to qualify for Bono Social, this figure of 1,680 KWh / annum plucked out of the air, should be doubled at least. Anyway, once you have applied and check out the six pages of form filling, you may well be deterred from completing your Solicitud Del Bono Social. Don’t worry - Be Happy !

DEAR Sirs Re article on the Padron (Issue 1731). The information was wrong when it said those staying in Spain over three months must register on the padron. The padron is the list of people who are resident in the town. Whilst some municipalities have for many years encouraged holiday home owners to register, and thus obtain discounts on their town hall taxes, it is and was contrary to the law. That is demonstrated by a person, say resident in Madrid, who spends more than three months a year in their holiday home on Costa Del Sol. They must register on the padron in Madrid. He/she cannot also register on the padron in the town where his/her holiday home is. Doing so would give them two votes in local and national elections and two municipalities would be getting subsidies for them. A person who lives in Spain (thus the three month and the 183 days rules do not apply) is required to register on the padron in the town where they live. If from another country, EU or non EU, they must register on the EU Citizens’ Register as resident in Spain (or if a non EU citizen have ‘Residencia’). Residents are taxable on their worldwide income and, if their total wealth exceeds one million euros, subject to Patrimonio Tax. I know some town halls still permit non-residents to register, but they act as if in ignorance of the fact they are not resident in Spain, leaving the citizen who unlawfully registers at fault. Unfortunately the padron system for financing municipalities was fine when the vast majority of the population were residents. However, since the increase in foreign owners the system increasingly fails to work. In some municipalities around 50 per cent of properties are owned by nonresidents, encouraging town halls to ‘dishonesty’ register non-resident home owners on their padron, so they will receive subsidies from provincial, regional and government authorities, in order to have sufficient income to run the town.

Prints of thieves
TECH FOR THE TIMID WHAT’S almost the most expensive liquid you can buy? Champagne? Not even close. Rocket fuel? Hardly. It’s actually none of the above. It’s printer ink. Forget human blood at a cheap €350 a litre - raise it to €1,500 for that precious inkjet fluid and the only thing remotely close is Chanel No 5. Which doesn’t come in black. All this is why actual inkjet printers can be cheap-as-chips and may even be sold at less than it costs to make them. Did I get a bargain with my €45 printer-scanner-copier? You betcha until I put new ink cartridges into it the other day at €50 a pop. In thriftier times I was a dab hand at refilling ink cartridges myself, despite the unsettling effect on visitors of a household littered with used syringes. These days your cartridge may well have a microchip on-board to block such DIY workarounds. So which should you buy: a bar-

with fine powder and a heated fuser. Each system has its strengths and weaknesses. One rule of thumb might help: buy an inkjet for sporadic home use and/or if you print the odd item in colour, but a laser for the heavierduty office or that ageing familymember whose stubborn insistence on printing every e-mail makes him
eligible for the Dead Trees Society. PRO: Ink-jets are cheap to buy, do a reasonable job with colour, can print on all sorts of stuff including fabric if you really must, and won’t break the bank when they finally spray their last. CON: The ink costs several limbs, prints are susceptible to water damage, they’re slow, and they have limited paper-trays for big jobs. PRO: Lasers by contrast, are fast, produce laser-sharp (duh!) text and graphics, generally print at a lower cost per sheet, and can easily handle high-volume jobs. CON: Photo output ain’t great, they’re fussy about paper types, they take time to warm-up, the initial cost is higher and trust me, toner leaks are a nightmare. Whichever you choose, bear in mind one infallible rule: never let a printer know you’re in a hurry. That’s when you realise they have just three main parts: the case, the jammed paper tray and the blinking red light.

- and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene
NON-LEAGUE football club Clapton wears a shirt with the colours of the Republican flag, the three-pointed star of the International Brigade and Dolores Ibarruri’s slogan unprophetic battlecry ‘No pasaran’ (They shall not pass). Clapton is a far cry from Guadalajara or Teruel but the team chose the shirt from a selection of 16. “I wanted to make something that marked the importance of the sacrifice of those who fought against fascism,” the shirt’s designer. Instead of selling an expected 250 shirts, there are orders for thousands more because it is a sell-out in Spain. All thanks and gratitude towards Juan Carlos
and for what he contributed to the Transition in his younger days and his son Felipe is giving a thankless task his best shot but the Spanish are not genuinely monarchist. There is general media interest in what Letizia or the Infantas are wearing and everyone loves a touch of royal scandal but there is still something about the colours of the Republican flag that provokes a stab of pre-Franco nostalgia. Or there was until the unilateral declaration of the Catalan republic on October 27 when Carles Puigdemont went and gave Republicanism a bad name.

The couple - supremo and sub-supremo of the Podemos party - recently issued a statement, thanking the Gregorio Marañon hospital in Madrid for the care the babies have received and are receiving there.
who was enthusiastically planning a Cataluña visit is cooling off. This has cheesed Scottish nationalists who like to see parallels with Cataluña but they can look for them until they are blue in the face and under their kilts but the similarities are few. Cataluña has never suffered under the Spanish in the same way that Scotland suffered centuries ago under the English unless you count Franco’s repression, which was felt all over Spain and was even more savage in some of the country’s other regions. Not that Sturgeon is cooling off about Scottish independence. Instead she’s boxing clever because if that happens, Scotland would have to apply straight away to rejoin the European Union. The last thing Edinburgh wants is a future
Although the couples are republicans, the communique said, the King and Queen asked after the twins “and all our political rivals frequently wanted to know how they were” they said. “We are atheists but will explain to our children that our friends who are believers prayed for us. The Virgen del Transito, Santa Rosa de Vi t e r b o a n d S a n t a M a r i a L i b e r a t r i c e w e r e asked for help (and one never knows...).”
Indeed one does not, which is why Santiago Carrillo, leader of the Spanish Communist Party between 1960 and 1982 happily described himself as a ‘god-fearing atheist.’

3D printers are the latest evolution in gadgets we didn’t know we couldn’t do without. Now you can pay about four times as much for another printer which won’t print when you absolutely need it. Prices have dropped at breathtaking speed, in direct contrast to the time taken to actually 3D-print anything, which is painful beyond belief. A halfway decent 3D printer can now be had for upwards of €200, and they pop up in the most unlikely places - like my local DIY superstore whose staff will print a new (plastic) part for your obsolete vacuum cleaner or other no-more-spares appliance, as long as there’s enough of the old part to scan. The ultimate 3D-printing dream? A 3D printer which will print another 3D printer.

Wrong target SPAIN’S Minister of Labour Magdalena Valerio described the newly-created prostitutes’ trade union OTRA as an own-goal. “This is one of the biggest upsets of my political life,” she fumed, and plans to annul the legalisation. Prostitution is supposed to be the oldest profession and unfortunately pimping is the second-oldest. Valerio should instead devote her energies to eradicating that and the people-trafficking and drugs trade it involves.

Cucumber: beautiful inside and out THE humble cucumber is a summer must have offering a number of health and beauty benefits as well as helping to beat the heat. The vegetable is made up of 95 per cent water and is therefore incredibly hydrating with the added bonus of helping to detoxify the body. It can even treat bad breath. During long, sweaty days and punishing heat, it’s important to take care of your diet and while certain foods can ensure you stay cool from the inside, others may end up aggravating your body and increasing your body heat. Cucumber is one of the recommended daily additions to the plate, cleaning the body internally and keeping skin healthy

W h i l e i t ’s d o i n g i t s w o r k o n the inside, it can be put to use on the outside, too. It’s no secret that cucumber soothes and refreshes the skin. When applied to the face, the juice can make skin look refreshed. It is especially great for people with dry skin. Slices have been used in many beauty treatments, and are part i c u l a r l y e ff e c t i v e i n r e d u c i n g dark circles and treating puffin e s s a r o u n d t h e e y e s .

Not as many people know this, but cucumber helps in reducing excess heat in the stomach, which is a primary cause of bad breath. Just holding a piece of cucumber in your mouth can kill the bacteria that cause stinky breath.
See a future in exercise PHYSICAL activity, even just the bare minimum, may lessen glaucoma risk and its threat of vision loss. A new study suggests simply meeting physical activity guidelines could reduce the
risk of developing glaucoma by up to 50 per cent or more. Glaucoma is a group of eye disorders that progressively damage the optic nerve and cause irreversible vision loss. Although it can’t be cured it may be managed with early, timely intervention. It’s unknown exactly what causes glaucoma and researchers strive to understand whether lifestyle factors can affect its development. So the research from Iowa State University and the University of South Carolina has been welcomed.
Researchers examined nearly 10,000 American adults, aged 40 to 81 years old, enrolled in the Aerobics Centre Longitudinal Study during an eight-year period. Their physical activity and cardiovascular fitness were recorded weekly via a treadmill test with an average nearly sixyear follow up period. Of those participants, 128 new cases of glaucoma were diagnosed. It was found participants who met physical activity guidelines, 150 minutes activity per week, had a 50 per cent lower risk of glaucoma than those considered completely sedentary.
And while the green vegetable, available all year round, is a complete beauty food, it is not just great for the skin, but also for the nails and hair. It can help in reducing tanning and the silica in the vegetable can promote hair growth and make your nails stronger.
It also promotes weight loss. High in fibre and low in calories, the cucumber is a great snacking option for people wanting to reduce weight. And, owing to its high potassium, magnesium and fibre levels, it is effective in controlling blood pressure.
Choosing a health professional OUR theme for our event this year is Our Trusted Health Network and on Saturday September 29 we are having an Open Day at our clinic in San Pedro so that our patients can meet the other health professionals who make up that network. Many of our patients have moved to the Costa del Sol from other countries. So they don’t have that automatic network that you do in a country you grew up in. And it can be tough to get your head around the differences between how parts of the health care system work ‘at home’ and here in Spain. And the differences between private and public healthcare. So here are our five top tips to choosing a health professional: • Check their qualifications. Sounds obvious but as medical titles and qualifications can change across bor-
By Estelle Mitchell www.thebodyworksclinic.com ders you need to check that the person you are going to see is allowed to do what you expect. In Spain registered medical practitioners belong to Colegios. Each profession has their own, often within specific regions and members are given a Colegio number. Each website has a directory to look up your medical practitioner. • Recommendations. Ask around. If you keep getting the same name from people with similar health issues it’s a good sign! • Assessment. In my experience the professionals who take the time to get to know you, look at you properly and
discuss options are the better ones. Medicine is rarely one size fits all. • Before and after. Can they clearly explain what will happen, how you will feel and a timeline? Can they tell you what success looks like (they might view it differently to you!). Have they got the experience to support you through the process? • Do you feel comfortable? it’s rare that one appointment fixes everything. You don’t have to want to be their friend but you do have to feel comfortable working with them. To meet the network of professionals that we trust stop by the clinic for our Open Day on Saturday September 29 10.00 - 15.00. Check out our website www.TheBodyworksClinic.co m or our Facebook page Bodyworks Health Clinic for more details.

HEALTH & BEAUTY WHILE most sources claim that gluten is safe for everyone except those who have coeliac disease, some health experts believe it is harmful for most people. And while everybody seems to be talking about it, do we really know what gluten is and how it can affect our health. It is actually a family of proteins found in grains like wheat, rye, spelt and barley. Of all of these grains, wheat is the most commonly consumed. The two main proteins in gluten are glutenin and gliadin. The latter is responsible for most of the negative health effects. When flour is mixed with water, the gluten proteins form a sticky network that has a glue-like consistency. This makes the dough elastic, and gives bread the ability to rise when baked. It also provides a chewy, satisfying texture. It’s not surprising then that the name glu-ten is derived from this glue-like property of wet dough. Most people tolerate gluten,

and involves the body treating gluten as a foreign invader. The immune system attacks the gluten, as well as the lining of the gut. This in turn damages the gut wall, and may cause nutrient deficiencies, such as anaemia, severe digestive issues and an increased risk of other diseases. The most common symptoms of coeliac disease are digestive discomfort, tissue damage in the small intestines, bloating, diarrhoea, constipation, headache, tiredness, skin rashes, depression, weight loss and foul-smelling faeces. However, some people with coeliac disease do not have digestive symptoms, but may have other symptoms like tiredness or anaemia, making it harder to diagnose. There are many people who do not test positive for coeliac disease, but still react negatively to gluten, a condition called non-coeliac gluten sensitivity. Some experts believe this isn’t a real condition. They think the adverse effects are imaginary or caused by substances other than gluten.

Nick Horne The Rich Pick Freelance correspondent, London, England ULYSSE-NARDIN made time pieces to aid navigation to the world’s navies. Though Swiss and so landlocked, the founders conceived that they could and would manufacture trusted maritime chronometers. By the 1870’s more than 50 navies and global trading fleets were esteemed customers of the Swiss manufacturer. Ulysse-Nardin supplied both Imperial Navies, Russia and Japan, in the Russo Japanese war of 1905. In modern times the maritime heritage of innovation horological development lives on. Ulysse-Nardin’s most recent spectacular, launched just two weeks ago, is the Free Floating Executive Tourbillon ‘Free Wheel.’ The ‘Free Wheel’ turns the traditional watch inside out displaying the brand new movement UN-176 to the eye. Beneath a box domed sapphire glass the Free Floating components appear to defy gravity, the dial’s tourbillon bridges and the seven-day power reserve indicator at four o’clock which are boomerang shaped, look like they are floating, as do the elegant drive trains and the hour and minute indicators. The case back is of sapphire too, however there is nothing to see. Where traditional watches would show components here, all the extraordinary components are visible on
LETTERS FROM CANARIES By Barbara Belt barbarabelt@gmail.com SINCE the 15th century, when the Spanish took the Canaries as both a practice and way station for subsequent trans-Atlantic plundering adventures, the islands have been a bridge between Africa and the Old and New Worlds. The New World needed slaves, we’re close to Africa, the rest is history. Centuries later, oppressed Canarians migrated to the Americas. Many stayed - lots came and went. A musical melting pot is one of the more obvious results, making provincial capital, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the perfect venue for a recent revamp of the traditional bridge role. The recently held, second edition of the South Atlantic Performing Arts Market (Spanish initials MAPAS) morphed Santa Cruz into an international cultural showcase of some clout. Long may it last! Think state of the art performing arts and music trade fair, add networking, training and information exchange, and you’ve got it. Although performances were public, free and popular, the 56 acts from 16 countries were there to impress some 150 programmers, bookers and agents, who’d come from 40 countries to shop for festival and event acts. Musicians had 30-minute slots to strut their stuff, while dance, theatre and circus groups’ slots varied. Artistic, technical and organisation-

The pearl of waterside Santa Cruz is the Auditorio Adan Martin, designed by Santiago Calatrava. It has shimmered beautifully there in the sun since 2003. Many of the MAPAS gigs were there and evening audiences loved its outside venues.

“All these marvellous performers here from all over the world! Incredible!,” Carmen-Lola, 79, Tenerife. And so on. As well as performances, artists’ groups from the Canaries and 29 countries in Africa, Latin America and southern Europe met international cultural agents and programmers in pitch and networking sessions, workshops, round tables and conferences. At the inaugural conference, Miami University’s Prof. George Yudice said: “Nowadays, performing artists have to compete with increasing competition from the digital world. It’s vital not only to promote good artist/venue matching, but also to help performing artists thrive in these conditions.” Performers and programmers alike agreed that MAPAS was: “A great new initiative,” Katja Somrak, programmer, Slovenia. “It’s been marvellous, very worthwhile. We’ve had appointments with lots of bookers, met a lot of people and enjoyed Tenerife,” Ana Rodriguez, Troker (Mexico)’s minder.

There was however a great heritage of the arts in these various States and the national opera company of Moldova was founded in the mid-1940’s and became a professional company in 1956. Following the collapse of the USSR, the company is one of the few ex-Soviet opera companies to retain its own orchestra, chorus, soloists and ballet company. Apart from presenting different productions in its capital and other parts of the former Russia, the company has a permanent touring group which plays across much of Europe.

Eat Well
to Live Well by Andrew Harding LAST week I completed my discussion about macro-minerals. This week I want to discuss micro-minerals, these minerals have less than a five gram presence in the average human body. Iron: Is the most abundant micro-mineral and is needed in red blood cells that transport oxygen and carbon dioxide in and out of the body. Meat, fish, poultry and enriched cereals and grains are the main sources. Copper: Is needed for the absorption of iron and the production of melanin to protect the skin from sunburn. Nuts, seeds and seafood are good sources. Zinc: Is required to produce RNA and DNA (the genetic material in the body’s cells) and aid the immune system and wound healing. Sources include; oysters, red meat and whole grains. Iodine: Used to produce thyroxine which regulates human metabolism. Consumption of iodised salt, prawns, tuna will fulfil dietary requirement. Fluoride: Protects the teeth by making the enamel more able to resist tooth decay. The best source is fluoridated tap water consumed by an expectant mother
who discovers she is seriously ill, but still attracts the attention of a young nobleman Alfredo. Unknown to Alfredo, his father persuades Violetta to leave him and he returns to his family, however he returns to her and she dies in his arms. The performance starts at 8.30pm, tickets cost €25 and €30 to be purchased online.

One of the world’s favourite ballets ALTHOUGH not immediately popular when first presented, the ballet Swan Lake has become one of the best known and most performed of all of the Tchaikovsky ballets and will be performed at the Cervantes Theatre in Malaga City on Tuesday October 16. This famous piece tells the story of good and evil with the battle between the White Swan and the
Black Swan which signifies the two major opposites in life. On the one hand is sweetness and fragility whilst on the other is power and provocation and sadly, in this ballet, both the heroine and her love both die. Interestingly, some of the music in Swan Lake was first written for a lesser known piece The Lake of the Swans which
was mainly performed for the composer’s family. As is becoming increasingly more common here in Spain, the Corps de Ballet presenting this fantastic tale, the Russian National Ballet is one of many professional companies from the former USSR who are on permanent tour. Tickets which can be purchased online cost €15, €25, €35 and €45.

A networking of Nations
residents area in the Marbella Exhibition Centre (Palacio de Congresos) that has recently been allocated just for us. This space offers a unique opportunity for us foreigners to come together more frequently and with ease, which is something our international resident community is leaning towards increasingly. We will all be able to have private meetings there or give classes and talks or even hold events. This networking cocktail is a great opportunity for us to meet the members of the BBCCE and be privy to one of their social meetings as well as get to know some of the lovely people who are in charge of the Foreigners department of the town hall and each other. Truly a networking of nations. See you there!!
Marbella Moments by Nicole King I REMEMBER sitting next to Vanessa Van Camp, President of the Belgian Business Community Club España (BBCCE) at the Marbella Awards last year in the Puente Romano Hotel. I asked her how she was enjoying the event and she smiled and said “interesting.” Of all the adjectives I might have expected, ‘interesting’ wasn’t one of them. However as it turns out, sitting amongst a bunch of Brits is not something she does often and whilst having a great evening she did feel as if she were ‘abroad’ and that was interesting. (ps. a hearty ‘enhorabuena’ to Marbella Rocks Mag for such an outstanding event and remember to vote in this year’s awards too!). Like Brits logically Vanessa would mix with her own nationals, or, unlike most of us, mix with the Spanish as we live in Spain. It highlighted yet again that in Marbella we are all foreign to someone and I don’t think any of us realise just how much! We’d be silly not to take advantage of this variety. Being surrounded by such diversity is a unique opportunity to peek inside these semi-ghettos that have sprung up along our 27km coastline, learning more about each other and opening opportunities to make new friends and business alliances alike, right

This is why networking is so significant and so easy in Marbella and why I thought it pertinent to mention an upcoming networking event, organised
by the BBCCE, not just because the Belgians are quite renowned for their love of good food and a good party which you wouldn’t want to miss, but because they have chosen to use a new foreign

The dazzling destroyer VISUALLY impressive, the dragonfly is also an airborne warrior chomping its way through unwanted mosquitoes and gnats. And with smart planning and a bit of luck, you can create a habitat to bring the brightly coloured creatures zooming, hovering and darting across your landscape. One planning strategy is to build a water source such as a small pond. Dragonflies, whose ancestors are among the Earth’s oldest insects, are aquatic insects that need a freshwater environment to breed. The second is to provide a food source. A garden with a diversity of plants will serve
that need because the flowers will attract a variety of tiny insects on which the dragonflies can feed. The aerial predators feast on the tiniest of insects which we rarely see but certainly feel. In fact their appetite for mosquitoes and their fast-flying ambush acrobatics while hunting have apparently earned them the nickname mosquito hawk’. Where luck comes into play is if you don’t have a pond or other water feature in your garden. In that case, you can still attract dragonflies if you’re fortunate enough to be near a water source that will serve as a breeding area for them. Dragonflies can travel up to a mile in search of food, so
‘near’ isn’t that far. Alternatively, a large bird bath may be an attractive magnet. And where you have dragonflies, you have damselflies doubling the fight power against the dreaded bloodsuckers. Ponds or water features are important in attracting breeding dragonflies and damselflies because both species lay their eggs in water. This begins with an aquatic stage that’s usually the longest period of their life. Dragonflies in their immature stage, for instance, are called nymphs and live in a pond or stream for an average of eight months. Mosquito dunks, containing Bti (Bacillis thuringienis is-

realensis), can be purchased from garden centres and placed in the water source. They dissolve over 30 days, slowly releasing the bio-control agent which the mosquito larvae will eat. The toxin kills them, and black fly larvae, but not other insects such as dragonflies. Because the dunks are selective and biodegradable, they are considered environmentally safe.
WARRIOR: Beautiful and beneficial.
Plan and protect to avoid DIY disasters ACCIDENTS at this time of year are not uncommon. Time and weather make doing jobs around the house more appealing and practical. But as with most things worth doing, preparation and attention to detail is key. Many DIYers lack the training and experience to safely use all the equipment required to undertake home improvements. Ladder accidents, misused power tools and dangerous working conditions can all result in serious injury. But there are steps you can take to be aware of potential hazards and reduce the risk of injury to yourself and others. Splinters and pieces of debris can find their way into the skin, particularly into any open cuts or wounds. This can result in bacteria developing, which could cause an infection. Inhaling dust can be detrimental to general health, particularly with regard to the lungs. Goggles, gloves and
PRECAUTIONS: Gloves, goggles or dust masks should be used to prevent DIY injuries.
dust masks should always be worn for protection. According to UK accidents at home statistics, 4,000 people visit hospitals every year as the direct result of a fall that has been caused by a paint pot or spillage. It therefore makes sense to plan the positioning of all the equipment being used, so that it does not become an obstruction. And spills should be cleared up immediately to prevent people from slipping and falling.
Knives and other sharp implements apparently cause 20,000 accidents every year, the result of poor handling of knives and tools such as scalpels, as well as failing to plan carefully or wearing gloves. Figures show 70 people lose their lives every year because of DIY accidents. People are fatally hurt because of inexperience, poor planning, failing to use the correct tools, and a lack of personal protective equipment.
The majority of deaths caused by DIY accidents are directly linked to the use of a ladder. It is reported 50 people are fatally injured every year in the UK because they have used a ladder that is in poor condition, used incorrectly or positioned badly. Around 3,500 people are hurt every year as the result of using a screwdriver. Even the most seemingly innocuous DIY tools can be dangerous if they are in the wrong hands.

HERE are some fun and interesting dog facts. See how much trivia you know about man’s best friend. Did you know… • A dog’s heart beats between 70 and 120 times a minute, compared with a human heart which beats 70 to 80 times a minute. • A dog’s normal body temperature is 100.5 to 102.5 degrees Fahrenheit. • A female carries her young about 60 days before the puppies are born. • According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the smallest dog on record was a Yorkshire Terrier in Great Britain who, at the age of two, weighed just four ounces. • The longest lived dog, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, was an Australian Cattle Dog, named Bluey, who lived to be 29. • An adult dog has 42 teeth.
PETS PAGE www.euroweeklynews.com
‘Did you know?’ - Fun stuff for dog lovers • It is a myth that dogs are colour blind. They can actually see in colour, just not as vividly as humans. It is akin to our vision at dusk. • If never spayed or neutered, a female dog, her mate, and their puppies could produce over 66,000 dogs in six years! • The only sweat glands a dog has are between the paw pads. • In 1957, Laika became the first living being in space via an earth satellite. • The world’s smartest dogs are thought to be (1) the border collie, (2) the poodle, and (3) the golden retriever. • Chocolate contains a substance known as theobromine (similar to caffeine) which can kill dogs or at the very least make them violently ill. • Dogs’ sense of hearing is more than 10 times more acute than a human’s. • More than one in three American families own a dog. • Dogs don’t like rain because
the sound is amplified and hurts their very sensitive ears. • The 10 most popular dogs (AKC, 2007) are in order: Labrador Retriever, Yorkshire Terrier, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Beagle, Boxer, Dachshund, Poodle, Shih Tzu, and Bulldog. • Dogs were the first animals domesticated by people. • A greyhound can run as fast as 45 miles an hour. • Spaying/neutering your dog before the age of six months can help prevent cancer in your dog. • Puppies acquire a full mouth of permanent teeth between four and seven months old. • Small dogs live the longest. Toy breeds live up to 16 years or more. Larger dogs average is seven - 12 years. Veterinary medicine has extended this estimate by about three years. However, some breeds, such as Tibetan terriers live as long as 20 years.
• Eighty per cent of dog owners buy their dog a present for holidays and birthdays. More than half of them sign letters and cards from themselves and their pets. • The dog name ‘Fido’ is from Latin and means ‘fidelity.’ • The US has the highest dog population in the world. • Most pet owners (94 per cent) say their pet makes them smile more than once a day. • Dogs are mentioned 14 times in the Bible. • It has been established that people who own pets live longer, have less stress, and have fewer heart attacks. • All dogs can be traced back 40 million years ago to a weasel-like animal called the Miacis which dwelled in trees and dens. The Miacis later evolved into the Tomarctus, a direct forebearer of
the genus canis, which includes the wolf and jackal as well as the dog. • Seventy per cent of people sign their pet’s name on greeting cards and 58 per cent include their pets in fam-
ily and holiday portraits, according to a survey done by the American Animal Hospital Association. • A dog’s whiskers are touchsensitive hairs called vibrissae. They are found on the muzzle, above the eyes and below the jaws, and can actually sense tiny changes in airflow. • The origin of amputating a dog’s tail may go back to the Roman writer Lucius Columella’s (AD 4-70) assertion that tail docking prevented rabies. • Dogs can smell about 1,000 times better than humans. While humans have five million smell-detecting cells, dogs have more than 220 million. The part of the brain that interprets smell is also four times larger in dogs than in humans.
MASTERMIND: Know your dog.
Does your dog need a lot of exercise? KEEPING energetic pets well exercised is important for their health and well-being If you’ve ever owned a fit and agile dog you will know that they are happy when they can run around and exercise on a
regular basis. This is particularly important for breeds that need to be active like Alsatians, Boxers, Greyhounds, Labradors, Retrievers, Rottweilers, Weimaraners; the list goes on. When you go away for a trip it is vital to maintain routines. A resident house-sitter can ensure that your dogs are cared for in the way you want with an exercise routine shared ahead of time. How we work HouseSitMatch is a house-sitting network where new members register online. We ID check everyone to ensure we know who you are, and in addition sitters are police checked. We charge for membership to

ACE CHARITY “El Refugio” in La Cala de Mijas is a registered charity. We have on average 275 dogs in our care and we receive no help from the Town Hall or the Andalucian government. We desperately need foster homes and adoptants for our many dogs, especially the small ones and puppies who do not do well in a big shelter. We are grateful for any help offered, including donations of food and blankets. Visiting times are from 13.00 to 15.00 and you can always turn up or make an appointment by calling Denise on 669 018 736. Our website is www.ace-charity.org where you can view all the dogs in our care. (93320) SEPE the horse and donkey charity is open to the public at weekends from 10.00 to 5.00. Volunteers are much needed in all departments and are welcome at anytime. For our riding for the disabled classes, we are also in need of extra helpers. We are nationally registered by the Spanish Ministry of the Interior (164640) but only with your support can we give the equine a voice. If you can just commit to 2 or 3 euros a month it will really help make a difference. You can find us at Lauro Golf Equestrian Centre, Alqueria, Alhaurin de la Torre. Tel. 608 258 950 info@sepeonline.net www.sepeonline.net (93321) AT SOS ANIMAL REFUGE we have dogs, young and old looking for homes. Some of our dogs have been with us for some time and would love to find a cosy spot to curl up in and a knee on which to rest their heads. If you have room in your heart and home we would love to hear from you. We do not put our dogs to sleep - no matter how old, they are safe with us. For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive. We desperately need items to sell on our market stall to help raise funds and are happy to come and collect. So if you are having a clear-out, please contact us on 605 227 155. If you would like to know
more about re-homing, please call 653 257 875. Visit our website www.sos-animals.org or please phone Sandy on 952 385 923 or 666 814 056 if you would like to make a donation or help in any way. (93317)

Volvo takes on airlines with its latest concept VOLVO’S latest concept car imagines a self-driving ‘pod’ which will let drivers and passengers work, play and relax and forget about all that tedious driving. There is nothing new in such a concept of course, but what sets the Swedish manufacturer’s idea apart is that it is aimed at taking on air travel. The big plus of the 360c concept is that by making your own way to your long distance destination you avoid all the hassle and stress of airport security, hours of queuing and waiting, and noisy, cramped airliners. Instead users of the 360c will travel in their own first-class private cabin from the moment they leave their door to the minute they arrive at their destination. Volvo explains: “The basis of the 360c is a fully autonomous, fully electric car without a human driver. The concept capitalises on the freedom in design afforded by the absence of a steering wheel and a combustion engine, providing the ability to reimagine the traditional placement of passengers in rows of two or three.” This means that the space freed up can be reconfigured for one of four potential uses of autonomous driving vehicles - a sleeping environment, mobile office, living room and entertainment space - which all reimagine the way people travel. According to Volvo, the 360c represents a potentially lucrative competitor to shorthaul air travel, focusing on shorter routes where the dis-

tance between origin and destination is around 300 kilometres. For example, within the United States over 740 million travellers embarked on domestic flights last year and America’s domestic air travel industry is worth billions of dollars in revenue. Several busy domestic air routes, such as New York to Washington DC, Houston to Dallas and Los Angeles to San Diego, are more time-consuming by air than by car when including things such as travel to the airport, security checks and waiting times. “Domestic air travel sounds great when you buy your ticket, but it really isn’t. The 360c represents what could be a whole new
take on the industry,” said Mårten Levenstam, senior vice president of corporate strategy at Volvo Cars. “The sleeping cabin allows you to enjoy premium comfort and peaceful travel through the night and wake up refreshed at your destination. It could enable us to compete with

Premier League Preview
Zidane looks for a big club signed a new five-year contract with the club. Maguire had been courted by Manchester United and was one of England’s key players at the World Cup. But the fans’ favourite said: “Ever since I came to this club, I’ve always reiterated how good they (Leicester) have been to me.” The Foxes will face Bournemouth on Saturday looking to bounce back from their defeat by Liverpool last time out. Liverpool also tied up a key player on a five-year deal, as captain Jordan Henderson committed his future to the table toppers. The Reds have a tricky away tie at Spurs on Saturday, before their first Champions League group game against Paris Saint Germain on Wednesday. Other fixtures after will see Everton host West Ham, Southampton face Brighton, and Newcastle entertain Arsenal.

Modric the great Credit: lukamodric10/Twitter
WHILE Spain basks in its victory over England last weekend, its clubs are gearing up for their first match after the international break. The window between domestic games has allowed a gust of gossip to blow and Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos believes teammate Luka Modric deserves to beat Cristiano Ronaldo to FIFA’s Best Men’s Player award. It is also believed that Uruguayan defender Jose Luis Rodriguez, 21, is close to signing for Real. Los Blancos will face Athletic Bilbao in the late kickoff on Saturday hoping to continue their impressive unbeaten start and keep the pressure on league leaders Barcelona. Meanwhile, Girona have accepted a proposal to play a regular-season game against Barcelona in the United States as part of the promotion of the league there. The first El Clasico of the season will see Barcelona host Real Madrid at the Nou Camp on October 28, as recently
confirmed by La Liga president Javier Tabas. Before that though, Barca will travel to eighth placed Real Sociedad on Saturday. Sevilla has suffered a blow as France international Maxime Gonalons is expected to miss at least six weeks of action after breaking his leg in training. The midfielder only joined on loan from Roma in August after Steven N’Zonzi moved the other way. Sevilla will hope to continue their promising early season form at home to Getafe on Sunday. Other fixtures will see struggling Valencia host Real Betis, Espanyol entertain Levante, and Alaves travel to Real Valladolid.

Great North Run: Farah storms to fifth win BRITAIN’S Mo Farah won a record fifth Great North Run on Sunday in Newcastle. Farah clocked 59 minutes and 26 seconds for his fifth win in a row in the race, with New Zealand’s Jake Robertson 31 seconds back in second. Farah narrowly missed out on his half marathon personal best - which he set in winning his second title in 2015 - after fading inside the final 200 metres.
He had pulled well clear of Robertson with about two miles to go, and Belgium’s Bashir Abdi came home in third. London Marathon champion Vivian Cheruiyot from Kenya won the women’s race for a second time in three years. Briton David Weir set a new course record to win the men’s wheelchair race for the seventh time, with Pole Martyna Snopek taking the women’s race. Credit: @Great_Run/Twitter
WITH the international break last weekend, it is all quiet on the premier league front. But that has not stopped the gossip from swirling around in the meantime. Zinedine Zidane is eyeing a return to management and is reportedly a target for Manchester United should Jose Mourinho leave. Zidane guided Real Madrid to a third successive Champions League crown in May and recently said: “I am sure that I will coach again before long.” Mourinho is in an uncertain position with apparent bust ups with vice-chairman Ed Woodward and midfielder Paul Pogba, as well as two defeats already this season. Manchester United will travel to Watford on Saturday hoping to inject some momentum into their campaign. Former Chelsea midfield linchpin Claude Makelele believes it will be difficult for Blues manager Maurizio Sarri to win the title in his first season, but is expecting big things from the Italian in the long-term. In fact, Makelele believes Sarri “has the capacity to make history for Chelsea again.” Sarri arrived from Serie A side Napoli in the off-season and has overseen a flawless four wins on the bounce so far. Chelsea will host Cardiff City on Saturday, who have a more indifferent total of two points from their four games. Leicester City defender Harry Maguire has

NOVAK DJOKOVIC produced an imperious display to beat Juan Martin del Potro in the US Open final and win his 14th Grand Slam title. The 31-year-old Serb won 63 7-6 (7-4) 6-3 to earn his third victory in New York and equal American great Pete Sampras’ haul of major trophies. Djokovic, who won Wimbledon in July, will climb to fourth in the world rankings after successive Grand Slam victories. Although the Serb only started to make inroads into Del Potro’s serve in the eighth game of the match, he clinically took his first break point as the Argentine blinked first. The second set could have gone either way with some blistering baseline exchanges, and was the longest set in the tournament at 95 minutes. Djokovic had lost five previ-

ENGLAND’S Nations League campaign opened with defeat as they were beaten 2-1 by Spain in their first match since the World Cup. Marcus Rashford gave England the perfect start with an 11th minute strike from Luke Shaw’s pinpoint pass but Spain responded with an almost instant equaliser thanks to Saul Niguez’s low finish. Rodrigo Moreno then took advantage of poor marking at a free-kick to score the winner from close range after 32 minutes. England suffered a blow just after halftime when Shaw was taken off on a stretcher with a head injury following an accidental collision with Dani Carvajal, but they rallied late on and could have earned a draw. David de Gea, who saved brilliantly from Rashford’s header in the first half, denied his Manchester United teammate again with a low save from close range. England were also furious that Dutch referee ruled out an injury-time finish from substitute Danny Welbeck after Spain’s keeper spilled the ball under pressure from

The petition, on change.org, argued that rep l a c i n g t h e 3 8 - y e a r- o l d was ‘not justifiable’ and that the team needed him to keep the balance alongside four times world champion Sebastian Vettel. “Kimi has also outperformed Vettel a number of times proving he is back on form, and his drive in Monza just adds more credibility to that,” argued petition organiser Christy John.
