Bomb probe A COURT has remanded a man in custody in connection with a bomb that was found on a Marbella urbanisation last month. National Police said the explosive was primed to go off when a maintenance worker found it in a bin on Calle Lavanda in the Alto de los Monteros urbanisation. It was found wrapped in two plastic bags on September 11. Officers with the pol i c e ’s T E D A X e x p l o s i v e specialists division were called in and confirmed the package contained explosives before destroying it in a controlled demolition. Police investigating the find said the bomb was likely designed for a ‘selective strike’ against a particular individual rather than to cause mass casualties.

School drug raids THE Mijas Local Police dog squad have seized around 125 grams of hashish in raids on schools in the area as part of efforts to tackle child drug use. The operation, which took place in collaboration with the Guardia Civil, was launched to stop drugs being sold in schools. It was also undertaken to prevent recreational substances falling into the hands of schoolchildren, according to Mijas’ mayor. Juan Carlos Maldonado said the safety of the town’s residents, including
its children, was one of the council’s top priorities. “We first began these operations with dogs two years ago and our emphasis has always been on keeping drugs away from our young people,” he said. “It is important that residents take up healthy
lifestyle habits from a young age,” the mayor added. Local Police in Mijas have also launched a scheme that sees a ‘tutor o ff i c e r ’ v i s i t i n g l o c a l schools to help with other issues such as bullying and truancy.

‘Ready’ for hacks Robles says Spain can face potential cyber strikes By Joe Gerrard SPAIN’S Defence Minister has said the country is prepared for potential cyber attacks after British and Dutch authorities alleged Russia’s military intelligence services were behind a series of global strikes. Margarita Robles told a press conference following a meeting with NATO Defence Ministers the country is braced for ‘very real’ threats. Spain had put all necessary measures in place to protect its cyberspace and its citizens should not be alarmed, the minister added. Robles’ comments follow claims made by Britain’s Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt that Russia’s GRU was behind strikes on the World Anti-Doping Agency, the Democratic
National Committee and other organisations. It also comes as the Netherland’s Defence Ministry claimed it had foiled an attempted cyber attack on the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) headquarters in The
Hague. Russia has denied any involvement in the incidents and called the accusations a ‘diabolical cocktail.’ There was no evidence to back up the claims from Britain and the Netherlands, a Kremlin spokesperson added. Robles said Spain had to be prepared in the face of threats of political interference, cyber attacks and ‘hybrid’ strikes. “Citizens have to be calm and to know that we are ready. But we will not abandon the channels of dialogue,” Robles said. The minister added it was ‘essential’ there were joint defence mechanisms both within NATO and the European Union (EU). “Spain is a reliable and serious NATO partner and we are committed to working on our

We cannot give more details about these as we do not provide clues to people who can carry out such attacks,” Robles said. James Mattis, the United States’ Secretary of Defence, said last Thursday his country had given its offensive cyber
capabilities to NATO countries. He added that Russia would ‘pay’ for its actions, but did not outline a specific response. Robles said Spain had to be ‘very cautious’ in choosing how to respond if it should fall victim to such a strike.

ARMY PARADE: The king oversees army marches in Madrid during the National Festival. SPAIN is gearing up to mark its National Festival tomorrow (Friday), a celebration with a long history and global reach. This official photo from the Spanish Army shows troops taking part in military parades in the capital of Madrid to mark the day which takes place every October 12. The marches are presided over by the Spanish King and other members of the royal family, as well as leading government figures such as
the Prime Minister. It also features flyovers from the Patrulla Aguila, the Spanish Air Force’s aerobatics team. The practice of staging parades began in 2000 when October 12 was also designated Armed Forces Day.

Road crash trial A GUARDIA CIVIL officer accused of fleeing the scene of a road accident in Mijas while under the influence of alcohol has claimed he was sober at the time. A Malaga City court heard during the defendant’s testimony that he had been distracted causing his car to leave the A-4053 road in May 2014. The defendant, a police sergeant, said he did not need to take a breathalyser test. The accident left three others injured.
The court also heard from another Guardia Civil officer who appeared as a witness. The witness told the court the defendant smelt strongly of alcohol at the time. The officer added the defendant would have known taking a breathalyser test was required in the case of such a crash. The defendant faces up to four years in prison if found guilty. The trial continues on Monday October 29.

POLL OF THE WEEK Do you think women are more equal in Spain than they are in other countries such as Britain? LAST WEEK’S POLL: Should General Franco’s remains be moved from their resting place in the Valley of the Fallen?
Yes 36%
RANKING HIGH: Thousands of women have protested in favour of gender equality this year.
Female friendly SPAIN has come fifth in a ranking of countries where women feel secure, respected, equal and unthreatened. The University of Georgetown’s Institute for Women, Peace and Security’s study named Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, Slovenia and Spain the most female friendly countries. Yemen, Syria and Afghanistan came bottom in the ranking of a total of 153 states. The report comes after Spanish politicians promised progress on gender equality amidst protests against sexism and gender violence this year. The university’s study took into account cases of gender violence, the representation of women in parliament, safety and legal systems. Spain ranked highly in almost all the categories. The country came 11th in gender violence rankings with the study finding that 13 per cent of Spanish women had experienced some form of sexist attack in their lifetimes. More than 80 per cent of Spanish women surveyed said they felt secure, with the report’s authors commenting the metric measured feelings of security and not freedom. Spain came 20th in terms of women participat-
ing in politics. Female members of the Cortes Generales, the country’s Parliament, make up 39 per cent of the total number of lawmakers. Spain topped the ranking of equality in its legal system with the least amount of discriminatory laws on its books. The study follows protests over alleged sexism in Spanish society this year as well as pledges from politicians to make the country more gender equal. Millions took part in the feminist general strike on International Women’s Day on March 8 over claims they continued to face sexism and discrimination in the workplace and wider society. Thousands more rallied after a Navarra court cleared five men of rape charges in connection with a sex attack on a woman at Pamplona’s Running of the Bulls festival. They were found guilty of the lesser charge of sexual assault in what became known as the La Manada (Wolfpack) case. Pedro Sanchez, Spain’s Prime Minister, has committed his left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) government to promoting female equality. There are 11 women in Spain’s 17-strong Council of Ministers, a move designed to make the government more gender equal.

A hidden danger WHILST everyone is aware of the problems caused by plastic and governments are banning the use of free plastic bags, there is an insidious danger amongst us that you may not appreciate. One of the most popular snacks in Britain and most of the rest of the world are potato crisps and other similar vegetable based snacks. The packets they come in are currently non-recyclable because they are not made of foil as many would think, but are made of up to nine layers of plastic. Walkers, Britain’s largest crisp producers bag 11 million packets a day which totals six billion crisp and other snack packets each year and the company which is owned by Pepsi Cola doesn’t expect to make its bags recyclable until 2025 (that’s 28 billion packets later). The reason for these different layers of plastic is to ensure that the crisps stay fresh, do not take on water or leak oil and do not burst open if dropped but what’s good for the product isn’t so good for the environment and examples of empty crisp packets from the 1980’s have been found on beaches in Europe. It’s not just Walkers who are to blame as most of these tasty snacks come in similar packaging, although Marks and Spencer have reduced the amount of air they put into their packets, thus reducing their size. One way of discovering if the bag is made from foil (as some are), just scrunch it in your hand - if it remains ‘scrunched’ it is foil and can be recycled; if it

MORE than 120 million road accidents with animals have been recorded in Spain over the last six years, including over 951,000 in Malaga Province. Of the overall total, 3.7 million animals were injured, and 2.8 million died, though none of these were in Malaga. The figures come from data provided by the central government in a parliamentary response to a query from the Citizens party, but they do not include incidents in Cataluña and the Basque Country, as they have their own traffic administrations. Wild boar cause the most accidents, followed by dogs and deer, and foxes, rabbits, bears, wild cats and badgers can also be victims. Most accidents occur in the spring and autumn, and it is unsurprisingly most dangerous at night.

A MALAGA City court has sentenced a 70-year-old man to 15 years in prison after he was found guilty of murdering his estranged wife to receive extra pension payouts. The court heard the man, a Danish national, had gone to the woman’s Fuengirola home on February 11, 2016 at around 7pm. The two had been separated for about 20 years but were on good terms. Prosecutors said the 70-yearold hit the woman over the head with a blunt object while she stood at the top of the stairs. She fell down the stairs and the man attempted to remove evidence from the scene. He changed his clothes and deleted all calls and messages from his phone.

Jailed for ex-wife murder
SENTENCED: The trial took place in Malaga City’s City of Justice.
Prosecutors told the court the 70-year-old left her body in such a position as to make it seem she had fallen accidentally. He then told police he had found her remains the next day while going to visit her. The defendant maintained his innocence throughout the trial. At one point he said any financial gain from her death would never make up for losing his ‘best friend.’ The court heard police forensic experts called to the woman’s home to investigate her death found traces of blood at the top of the stairs. They added her body was in
an ‘abnormal’ position that did not suggest she had fallen. The blunt object prosecutors said was used to kill her was never found. The court also heard the woman had recently received money from the sale of shares and was drawing two pensions, one state and one private. The defendant was drawing one pension worth around €750, significantly less than the victim’s earnings. The court has ordered the 70year-old to pay some €100,000 in compensation to the woman’s family. Prosecutors had originally requested a 25-year jail term for the defendant.
Learning life lessons THE Citywise charity is recruiting students from Malaga University to become mentors to young people in vulnerable situations. Around 70 Malaga schoolchildren have been identified as needing the academic support, motivation and advice of such mentors. These pupils come from socially disadvantaged areas like Asperones, San Andres and Cruz Verde-Lagunillas and are generally at risk of failing or being expelled from school. As only 30 volunteers have come forward so far, Citywise is running a campaign at the university campus to try to encourage more students to join the initiative. The sessions simply involve two hours of study, one afternoon a week.
They include group dynamics eg sports and crafts, and there are also excursions outside of school. Mentors and the pupils are invited to plays, live musical shows and other activities. The sessions are intended to hone a variety of aptitudes including empathy, resilience, perseverance, sound judgement and self-control, in an environment of positive affirmation. As the project director of the initiative, Begoña White says: “There are no virtues that they do not have, they simply have not discovered them yet.” The mentors benefit from the process alongside the pupils, as they are able to develop invaluable skills like leadership, team work, analysis and problem solving.

CRIME CLAIMS: Villarego is being held in Estremera Prison.
Medal of dishonour MARBELLA’S council plans to begin the process of revoking a medal awarded to a former police commissioner under investigation over alleged corruption and gang connections. The mayor of Marbella, Angeles Muñoz, and the council’s security spokesperson Felix Romero both said the Cross of Professional Merit awarded to Jose Manuel Villarejo would be revoked. The announcement follows Spanish media reports that revealed Muñoz had given the honour to Villarego in 2014. Marbella City Council unanimously approved the handing out of the award to the former clerk at a meeting in July of that year. Villarego was remanded in custody in November of last year after being arrested as part of Operation Tandem. He is currently being held in Estremera Prison in the Madrid region.
Operation Tandem was launched to probe allegations that police officers in Marbella, Sotogrande and Madrid were involved with money laundering, bribery and organised crime. Villarego’s first job with the police was at a provincial station in San Sebastian. He arrived there in 1975 to take up a post in the anti-terrorist unit set up to combat the Basque nationalist paramilitary group Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (ETA). He went on to work at the Public Safety Headquarters in Madrid until 1983 before entering the business world from that year until 1993. Villarejo was involved with 46 different firms. He then returned to the police force, taking up a post as an undercover officer with the Ministry of the Interior before leaving service and settling in his native Andalucia.

KILLING: Palmer (inset) murder linked to Spain.
Crime boss murder link
BRITISH police officers probing the death of one of the country’s richest criminals have linked the shooting to several other cases including a double murder in the Canary Islands. Essex police have been investigating the killing of John Palmer, otherwise
known as ‘Goldfinger,’ who died in June 2015. Officers said they had linked the death, suspected to be a gangland killing, with the double murder of a British couple in Tenerife in 2006. Billy and Flo Robinson were kidnapped while on
their way home from a restaurant on the island. Both were killed after being tortured. Billy Robinson is believed to have been a member of Palmer ’s gang. Palmer ran an illegal timeshare scam in Tenerife in the 1980’s. The investigation continues.
THE Royal Family of Saudi Arabia has settled a long running dispute with Spain’s State Agency for Tax Administration based on the activity of a Spanish company that managed their mansion and other assets in Marbella. The Tax Agency claimed that the company had defaulted on €5.4 million of monies owed, including interest and fines. However, the National Court has annulled two sanctions amounting to €2.14
million, meaning that the overall amount that the Saudi Royals are legally obliged to pay is around €3.2 million. This ruling was not appealed by the Tax Agency to the Supreme Court. The company in question is called Casa Al Riyadh SL and is domiciled in a business park in La Moraleja, Madrid. It is run by Syrian Mohamed Kayali, who has close ties to the Royal Family of Saudi Arabia, and was also a good friend of Juan Carlos I.

According to a Spanish interior ministry spokesman, 7,000 child migrants have arrived to Spain from Morocco without parents or guardians.

tracks, but as the woman went to retrieve it she was struck by the Talgo train service from Barcelona. The line was closed to all rail traffic for several hours while police investigated the incident. It is not known if the dog survived the horrific accident.

NO VOTE: Sanchez has ruled out calling a snap election.
No early election SPAIN’S Prime Minister has said he has no plans to call an early general election as opposition politicians and officials from his own party continue to lobby for a poll. Pedro Sanchez faced calls from Albert Rivera, leader of the centrist Ciudadanos party, to hold a snap election in order to help resolve the ongoing independence push in Cataluña. Members of the Prime Minister’s ruling left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) have also said Sanchez should bring elections forward to capitalise on the party’s lead in the polls. It comes as scandals continue to dog the government, with many PSOE officials fearing they could derail
hopes of a future election victory. Rivera claimed Spain was currently in the hands of Cataluña’s pro-independence president Quim Torra. An election was the only way to loosen what Rivera said was Torra’s hold on power, the Ciudadanos leader added. Rivera also called for Article 155, the constitutional mechanism used to impose direct rule on the region following last year’s independence referendum and declaration, to be reinstated. Sanchez said his administration wanted to continue on the path of dialogue with Cataluña within the bounds of the law. “The answer is clear. We
want self-government and coexistence. Not independence,” he said on Twitter. The Prime Minister added he would hold elections if the Catalans chose to prioritise conflict over collaboration. It was his policy to wait until 2020, the end of the current legislative term, to hold a national vote and that he had no plans to bring it forward. PSOE officials have reportedly become concerned that scandals which have seen two ministers resign since the party took power in June could hamper its election chances going forward. The PSOE is currently around 10 points ahead of the opposition conservative Partido Popular (PP).

Robin Walker’s trip included talks with members of the Brexpats in Spain, Bremain in Spain, EuroCitizens and ECREU groups at the British Embassy in the Spanish capital. Issues including health and social care for expatriates in light of Britain’s withdrawal from the EU in March 2019 were discussed. There were also talks on outreach and communications with Walker and Embassy officials. The aim of the meetings was to provide the groups with updates on ongoing Brexit negotiations as well as an insight into Britain’s diplomatic work in Spain, its embassy said. Walker said he was pleased to meet with the representatives and update them on what the government was doing to safeguard their rights. “I valued the opportunity to hear their concerns about residency, pensions, onward movement and voting rights and the uncertainty many of them still feel over Brexit,” he said.

Disgusted by vomit A BRITISH expat couple travelling to the UK on a Ryanair flight from Spain were appalled to discover their seats caked in what they claim was ‘dry vomit.’ British expats Fred and Sheila McInerney, who are residents in Alicante, flew with Ryanair from their local airport to Bristol to watch a football match with their son. However, when boarding their flight at Alicante airport on Friday, September 28, they were shocked to find their allocated seats were covered in what they claim was ‘dry vomit.’ They claim the leather upholstery and seat belts of their allotted seats were filthy and had not been cleaned. To make matters worse, the couple allege that upon notifying the cabin crew they were told bringing back the cleaning crew was out of the question as it would delay the flight’s departure.
NO THRILLS: Seats were apparently covered with vomit. The couple snapped photographs of the appalling condition of the seats. Their son said: “It was quite obvious someone had been sick. They asked the cabin crew for it to be cleaned but the man said that
it would delay the flight.” Mr and Mrs McInerney asked to change seats and claim there were empty seats available in the emergency exits of the plane. However, the Ryanair cabin crew instead asked another
passenger to swap with the couple and to endure the flight in the filthy seats. A Ryanair spokesman has said: “All Ryanair aircraft are thoroughly cleaned by professionals at the end of each day, in line with indus-
try standards, and cabin crew carry out a cabin tidy and toilet check at the end of every flight, during turnaround. “In this instance, the customers in question were moved to other seats.”

Contaminated zones by Tara Rippin THE nuclear agency has admitted there are six radioactive contaminated sites in Spain. But none of the zones which are listed by the Nuclear Security Council (CSN), are officially classified as contaminated ground. This is because Spain has yet to produce a formal inventory of sites affected by radioactive leaks, 10 years after a royal decree ordered one to be compiled. The CSN argued the Nuclear Energy Law needs to be amended before the inventory can go ahead. And since 2008, no governmental moves have been made to achieve this. In November 1970, several dozen litres of highly radioactive liquid from a spent nuclear fuel reprocessing plant reportedly leaked from the Juan Vigon National Nuclear Energy Centre, inside Madrid’s university campus. The liquid spilled into the sewer system and reached the Manzanares River, making its way to the Jarama River, the adjoining irrigation canal, and into the Tagus River. The Franco regime is said to have

One commenter said: “You can be ages getting scanned they are t hat sl ow and al l t he t i m e your tray is sat at the bottom with money, iPad and phones all there for anyone to help themselves!!!” Another added: “You put your bags, laptop, keys onto the conveyor then they wave you forward and you don’t see them again until you get through all the checks. If you walk with them alongside the conveyor as I try to do security has a fit.
Fake gas inspectors A TRADE association that represents genuine gas installation and maintenance engineers in Spain has issued a new warning about fake ‘inspectors’ preying on vulnerable people. The body points out that as au t u m n a n d c oo ler weather has arrived the number of scams being reported is on the up. The sc a m i s t a rg e ted mainly a t t h e e l d e r l y an d the association is calling on good neighbours to alert the vulnerable how the fraudsters act. “Often they pose as technicians of the gas company, often dressed in uniform, or they say they come from the
town hall or from the corresponding autonomous community,” says José María de la Fuente, the president of Agremia. The scammers turn up on the doorstep without warning to say that they have to conduct a gas inspection. They will generally declare the installation has a serious defect but charge exhorbitant prices for minor parts. There are reports that s o me p e o p le h a v e b e e n co n n ed o u t o f mo re tha n €100 to replace an out-ofd a te g as h o s e th at w o uld cost around €5 from a hardware store and take just minutes for the average per-
son to easily change themselves. And Agremia, has reported that, sometimes, these false gas inspectors pressure people by saying that failure to carry out the review and the subsequent repairs will put their safety and that of their neighbors in serious danger. These fraudsters also sometimes say that if the inspection is not carried out, the ga s c a n be c ut off or they can be subject to heavy fines. The association recommends calling the police in case a stranger shows up at your door without a prior appointment.

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@costaluz lawyers.es.

A Kremlin spokesperson said there was no evidence to support the allegations.

Nestling down
A risky investment MANY UK nationals living part of the year in Spain, or visiting often, might spend months here but still retain tax residency in their home country. This means those looking for investment opportunities can still take advantage of UK tax efficient products such as Finance ISAs - ones which use peer-to-peer lending to offer high rates of return. They may be nothing new but one legal justice firm has upped the ante offering returns of up to 8 per cent a year. Created two years ago, Innovative Finance ISAs allow savers to use part
by Tom Woods of their ISA allowance to invest in peer-to-peer lending platforms while benefiting from potentially high interest rates tax free. One firm, Just, is now claiming it will use investments to fund legal cases, with investors making profits if a case wins. Just’s director, Rob Rutter, explained, “investors will ultimately be assisting those who may have been wronged by banks, institutions or individuals.”
Minimum investment is £2,000 (€2,244), which will be held in bond for five years accruing simple interest at 8 per cent per year. This could mean profits of up to £4,000 (€4,488) on an initial £10,000 (€11,370) investment. Experts warn these ISAs are not risk free, however, and are not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, meaning if such a firm was to go bust savers would likely lose their investments. Website thisismoney instead urges potential investors to, “do their own research into how solid the company they are investing in is.”
MERIDIA CAPITAL has sold the Nestle headquarters in Barcelona to the Korean investor IGIS Asset Management. The office complex has an area of 27,000 square metres spread over five buildings. Meridia Capital acquired the premises in February 2016 and since then has carried out significant improvements to facilities in a ‘value add’ strategy. As a result, the building complex has achieved the Leed Platinum and Leed Gold certifications.

HIGH RANKING: Rato is former head of the IMF. A SPANISH former head of the International Monetary Fund has been told he will have to serve jail time for fraud. The Spanish Supreme Court has ruled that Rodrigo Rato must serve a four-and-a-half year sentence, and as it is for more than two years it will not be automatically suspended. The high-ranking politician - he is a former Deputy Prime Minister
and Economy Minister - was convicted in 2017 of improperly using company credit cards while working for Bankia, the state-owned bank. A total of 64 executives from the bank have been convicted of using company cards to pay for jewels, holidays and designer clothes, and everyday living expenses worth a total of €12 million between 2003 and 2012.
BUDGET airline easyJet is set to make pre-tax profits of up to £170 million (€190,780,000) more than in 2017. The company claimed ‘robust customer demand’ overcame ‘disruption across Europe’ caused by strikes and bad weather.
Low confidence UK consumer confidence fell in September following fears over Brexit, according to the monthly Growth from Knowledge (GfK) survey. The drop follows 32 consecutive months of declining consumer confidence since early 2016.
Is it time to switch? UP to one million NatWest customers could be asked to switch to a new mobile-only bank named Bo. NatWest’s owners, Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), have announced plans to launch the new bank next year under the leadership of Mark Bailie, former chief operating officer at RBS. Bo - reportedly named after the
Danish word meaning ‘to live’ - will only be accessible on mobile devices and will use artificial intelligence to help customers manage their finances, according to one insider. Sources say RBS is hoping to tempt one million NatWest customers to the new service, although no customers will be forced to switch.

Young people bank on digital YOUNG people aged between 18 and 35 years old make 80 per cent of payments via their bank cards, and only 20 per cent in cash according to research from BBVA Data & Analytics. This ratio is even higher i n l a rg e c i t i e s , w h e r e t h e average number of transactions made by card has risen by 170 per cent over the last three years. Millennials make 44 per cent fewer withdrawals than the average Spanish person, while those over 60 are 33 per cent above the average. Card transactions have increased by 136 per cent in Barcelona since 2015, and by 103 per cent in Madrid. By contrast, payments by card only represented 45.6 per cent of the total in Melilla, 40.8 per cent in

Jaen, and 40.5 per cent in Asturias. In addition, ‘contactless’ card payments have rocked from 5.7 per cent in 2015, to 49.5 per cent in 2018. Researchers have established that the five main categories being spent on are: food, fashion, bars and restaurants, transport and shopping centres. T h e B B VA s t u d y concludes that the evidence points to a progression towards a ‘cashless’ society spearheaded by young people. The report identifies the rise of digital technology as a key factor, as well as a reduction in commission that businesses had to pay to accept payment by card.
LAW CHANGE: The news will be welcomed by modernising banks.
EU banks on the future SPANISH banks are anticipating a regulatory change by the European Union that will allow them (and other European banks) to stop accounting for their investment in digital technology as costs. This will mean that they will no longer have to deduct this expenditure from the tier one capital ratio. According to an internal document from one of the Spanish banks, European officials have reached an agreement to ensure that future investments in FinTech will not adversely affect solvency calculations. The same document highlights that the European Banking Authority (EBA) should develop new technical standards to establish what can be considered digital software. Despite the reaching of this agreement in principle, the timescale to introduce it has not yet been clarified. Deloitte’s analysts have estimated that the new banking legislative package could be introduced in the second half of 2019. Banking bosses have been working for years to convince the European authorities to implement this change. European banks spend more than €18 million on FinTech, and this is expected to rise to €50 million in the near future.

I’m offended that you’re offended LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT I DUNNO, it really does appear that in this day and age you can pick up any old rock and discover some ‘offended’ creep skulking under there somewhere. This week was a real humdinger. The left wing (natch!) National Union of Students, (natch again!), have decided that public hand clapping, whooping and cheering should be banned as they consider it ‘offensive to deaf people’! You really couldn’t make it up. Do these young idiots ever do any actual studying? Do they ever get their heads down and use their free libraries and state financed education establishments (which many a third world student would give their eye teeth for) to create a little brain power? Or are their days spent in cuckoo land, dreaming up any lunatic scheme or idea, merely to give themselves an excuse for existing? Apparently, their alternative suggestion to applause, is the use of ‘Jazz Hands.’ This entails raising the arms and enthusiastically waggling the hands and fingers. (Think Black and White Minstrel Show.) ‘Er, hold on a minute, no noise? Wouldn’t that be offensive to blind people? You see, all this PC
APPLAUSE: Is this really offensive? and ‘offended’ clap trap actually has no end. It simply goes on and on. I may be offended by deaf people communicating by sign language because it doesn’t include me! Or upset because pigs have been excluded from my school books, (yep!). There are billions of people on earth; whatever your opinions you’re bound to offend someone. Did you know that some people are offended by the use of the expression ‘rule of thumb?’ This is because the thumb was originally in-
troduced to measure the thickness of the stick you could use to beat the wife! Just to get back briefly to the student ‘clapping’ opposition, I think I’ve solved it. Passing wind would take care of it. An appreciative audience, in a communal coordinated gas release, would satisfy everyone. Deaf, blind, dumb, physically impaired. All would benefit. There’s one for your pathetic student union to contemplate, when it next engages
in the pea brained activity it laughingly calls ‘educated debate.’ Oh, and while you’re about it, when you come to the question of a second Brexit referendum, which no doubt has been supported at many a gathering of your laughable leftist liaisons, what if a second vote yielded the same leave result? Any plans for that? ‘Course not. With the ignorance of the young, you’re all far too arrogant to admit you may get something wrong. It’s time our next generation started to talk of WHEN we leave. Not IF! Now that would be a constructive use of taxpayer’s money. I’ll leave all our young time-wasters with a motif for their new t-shirts. I’m offended That you’re offended By me taking offence At your offensive, Offensiveness! Alright!? Oh, and I’ve just discovered why Sky’s obnoxious Kay Burley seems to get all the cream news assignments. She’s a major SKY shareholder. ‘Course she is. I bet she’s popular with her, oft far more talented fellow news presenters, who never seem to get a look in! Keep the faith Love Leapy. leapylee2002@gmail.com
Leapy Lee’s opinions are his own and are not necessarily representative of those of the publishers, advertisers or sponsors.
TECH FOR THE TIMID CHIPS may be smart, but are we, the users? In an era which is definitely higher tech than many of us are, take my neighbour ’s fancy new phone. Please. He happily downloads all sorts of goodies on it, then can’t find the downloads and constantly has to ask me. A recent survey found that most people barely use 10 per cent of their computers’ features or abilities. Many smartphone users have no idea how to access their phone’s settings, let alone change them. That sounds about right. Back in the old days of video recorders my partner never managed to get the thing to do anything more sophisticated than wipe my favourite movie, or record 240 minutes of snow. For those who spent the 70’s learning to master Tippex on typewriters, technophobia has become a contemporary affliction right up there with eating disorders, gadgetdriven sleep deprivation and unintentional suicide-by-selfie. Our parents thought they were
A feature too far in our gadgets? Terence Kennedy considers a disease of our time: technophobia
DON’T PANIC: Fear only fear itself. going boldly when they mastered the calculator. In fact it took my own father the best part of a week to get the hang of his simple office calculator, by Sharp, and then the boss threw him a curveball by swopping it for a Casio and he was stumped. These days manufacturers are churning out appliances able to do
all sorts of things many users simply cannot make them do or do not want them to do. We’re not just overwhelmed by the onward march of technology - we’re buried alive under several squillion avalanches of the stuff. Edison cylinders begat wax records which begat vinyl LPs
which begat digital CDs which begat MP3s and just as we and our bank balances have caught up with the begatting, they replace the lot again with something even more daunting and with a shelflife closely akin to a fruit-fly’s. Everything you buy is loaded to the chips with features. A feature is often something that you do not want, do not want to pay extra for, will never use, but cannot get the thing you do want without. Our new TV has a control panel which would shame a 747, a remote zapper looking like a small computer, a manual which has done serious damage to a Brazilian rain forest, and the ability to screen two programmes at once. Umm, why? Is there any consumer out there plain schizoid enough to want to watch two programmes at once? My long-suffering partner hasn’t even managed to get one programme on the darn thing yet, but give her time; she’s only on page 28 of the manual: ‘Taking the set out of the box.’
Finding help THE quickest way to solve a technical problem is to ask the nearest six-year-old. Seriously though, living in the 21st century and not knowing how to tweet or send an e-mail feels overwhelming. There’s an app for that, he said, then ducked. Technophobes are not alone. The internet is awash with dummies-type books, courses and self-help texts to help the technically-challenged, and some really do start at ‘Step One: switch on.’ Type ‘Smartphones for seniors’ into Google and you’ll be deluged with four million hits. ‘Learn Microsoft Office’ produced a breathtaking 315 million results last time I tried. ‘How to e-mail’: 11 billion hits! Or just ask a neighbour. As long as it’s not me. From now on, like Manuel in Fawlty Towers, ‘I know nuuuthing!’

On the lookout for seals, turtles and pateras LETTERS FROM CANARIES By Barbara Belt barbarabelt@gmail.com HELLO from down here, with news of night skies and powerful telescopes in La Palma; an annual swimming race off a seismically active stretch of El Hierro’s coast; a drunken British, erm... lady’s antics in Tenerife; pateras carrying African migrants to Gran Canaria and Lanzarote; and Monk Seals in Fuerteventura. There’s been a heatwave too, exacerbated by the hot, sandy African calima wind, which brought with it three pateras (small migrant boats, or in today’s sad terminology, illegal immigrants) to Caletón Blanca in Lanzarote and Mogán in Gran Canaria. Of the 42 migrants, 17 are minors and go straight into the care of island Cabildos. The rest will eventually get sent back, despite all the risk and the money paid to patera owners, who are guilty of charging extortionate fees, lying and murder. Non-swim-

come illegal to migrate in search of a better life? Didn’t we all migrate? I certainly arrived here, relatively skint, looking for refuge. Is the difference between expats and refugees racial, economic or both? It’s selective exclusion. More exclusion from Fuerteventura’s fishermen, who don’t want Monk Seals re-introduced to the island on the basis they’ll eat all the fish. As they predate the fishermen by millenia this seems churlish, but a British tourist’s adventures in Tenerife have

She had ‘no idea’ how it got there,” reported the Arona hospital, now investigating online photos presumably taken by personnel unable to resist the temptation. Holiday fun. On a saner note, El Hierro’s sixth annual Mar de Las Calmas swimming race with 350 participants from Argentina, USA, UK, Belgium, Italy, Slovenia, France, Uruguay, Sweden
and Spain, including 20 Canarians, was on September 29. Olympic swimmer Juan Carlos Vallejo won the 18km swim between Faro de Orchilla and La Restinga. Two other entry points at Tacorón, a 6km swim, or at Bahia de Naos at 2.5km, attract the less hardcore, but are still demanding. Domingo Gutierrez’ support boat, as always, provided food, drink and a brief rest for swimmers. “It’s a good year, despite wind and choppy seas. We’ve got international and national names and lots more Canarians, with an 82-year-old from Gran Canaria competing,” said Domingo. Meanwhile, on neighbouring La Palma, with its night skies and prestigious Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory, a Night Light European Programme meeting, about the control of light contamination and the promotion of Astrotourism, was taking place. More niche tourism! Last time Dark Tourism, now Astrotourism. What’s the name for the kind of tourism where turtles are inserted into orifices, I wonder?
Advertising Feature AS the biggest spa dealer on the Coast, Aquapool Spas, has served their clients from their showrooms in San Pedro and Fuengirola since 2004 - and will celebrate their 14th anniversary this month. The focus when buying a hot tub has changed over the years. From being a mere dipping pool, a hot tub is now as much a retreat for relaxation, family time and rehabilitation, says Anja Kielskov, owner of Aquapool Spas. In these modern technological times, people feel the need to spend more time together with friends and family. Talking together like in the good old days can be difficult without disturbance. In particular, the younger generation can spend a worrisome amount of hours on their tablets and phones, playing games or interacting on Social Media. We get a lot of positive feedback from our clients telling us how they are now able to connect on a more personal level with family and friends. Spa-time allows you to unplug on your own or reconnect with your loved ones, Anja Kielskov says. A hot tub has always been a great way to relax and recover after exercise. In recent years, the spa industry

low-impact exercises or just stay in shape. Apart from property owners on the coast, we see an increased interest from owners of rental properties. A spa is considered to be the ultimate ‘luxury treat’ and properties with spas installed are rented out much easier and at a considerably higher price, says Anja Kielskov. Anja Kielskov explains that their two showrooms contain an array of different models which accommodate clients with different budgets. With a price range from €2,995 to more than €60,000, she claims that there will be a hot tub or swim spa for everyone. Aquapool Spas is the only dealer in Andalucia that sells the American high-quality brand HotSpring Spas.

RECENTLY I wrote about students being ‘bribed’ with biscuits. Now we have Waitrose being hammered by both cashstrapped students and parents for its pricy list of student store cupboard ‘essential’ ingredients, described by the supermarket as ‘a starter kit for the fledgling cook about to fly the nest.’ This includes rose harissa paste, organic cider vinegar, organic soy sauce and Marigold Swiss Vegetable Bouillon Powder - the whole list costing freshers £13 and they still wouldn’t have anything to eat! But hang on, where’s the avocado? Or the wholemeal organic multi-grain toast from Waitrose’s Fairtrade line to slather it on? To be fair, though, students no longer restrict themselves to the traditional diet of Pot Noodles, baked beans and cold pasta. Mainly due to the internet, a new generation of young food ‘vloggers’ and YouTubers have shown students how to cook creatively and cheaply. In fact, all the Waitrose items listed have a long shelf life and, though an ini-
tial outlay’s involved, should last for quite some time. The bouillon powder is really useful, lasts for ages and a superb suggestion. Even the rose harissa works out relatively economically considering how much, err, bite it can give to umpteen meals before the jar’s used up. Maybe all the carping’s just a classic example of people sniggering because it’s upmarket Waitrose? Good quality seasonings help turn cheap, simple ingredients into nutritious meals. Presumably some of those whinging wouldn’t think twice about a student forking out £13 on a pizza? Years ago when I was a student (Vesta curries, Angel Delight, anyone?), one flatmate used to whip up incredible roast dinners for us (buying ‘sell by’ date meat and veg from the supermarket just before closing) and loads of other delicious meals. Our store cupboard was rammed with lots of weird and wonderful-sound-
POT NOODLE: These days many students are more discerning about their diet. ing herbs, spices and sauces. But then another flatmate existed on Fray Bentos pies and cigarettes. He always swore Fray Bentos was hugely underrated. Too true - after a few fags, no way could you taste it! Happy days!

LEGALLY SPEAKING
Can they park in the street? I live in an urbanisation where there is no proper parking space in the street for a kilometre. The street is a cul de sac. However, for the last 30 years people have squeezed their cars into the street without any problems. The street has no name and there has never been a ‘No Exit’ sign. Now a neighbour has complained to the police there were too many cars parked. The police came and then asked the urbanisation to put a yellow line and a board to prohibit parking. Now I can’t get visitors or a plumber because they have to park on a yellow line and can get a fine. Most of the neighbours have the same problem. My question is: Do we complain to the community or to the police? N P (Costa del Sol)
As you tell it, the police have taken David Searl no official action. Only the You and the Law in Spain community has acted. I suspect that your street is not really a public way and that nobody can be fined. You want to bring the issue to your AGM and vote to remove the yellow line and the sign.

Advertising Feature DO you feel as if your Insurance Adviser gives you Peace of Mind? When you took out your insurance in Spain did you feel if as you had Peace of Mind with the cover as well as in the event of a claim? EU Insurance has been offering Insurance on the coast for over 13 years and pride themselves in offering a personal and friendly service. If a client lives in the countryside, it is obvious that in the event of a claim or their car breaking down that they will require a courtesy vehicle as a necessity, and for the longest time allowed. Breakdown and window insurance are absolute musts too, it only saves a fraction of the total cost and is well worth having. EU Insurance offers all types of Insurance and they find that by knowing their clients they are able to offer tailor-made plans to suit their needs. It is a minefield when prospective customers request details about health insurance when there are so many plans on the market. They say that if they pinpoint exactly what clients’ needs are, they are able to offer a policy within the requested budget which includes all the specific cover that the client needs. The same goes with Home Insurance. It isn’t just a question of simply
Does your insurer give you peace of mind?
BREAKDOWN COVER: A courtesy vehicle is included. asking how much buildings and contents is required, they need so many other details to issue a quote, to assess your own personal situation, needs and budget. They will require the Catastral Reference number (unique identifica-
tion number of your property) to correctly assess the value of rebuild necessary to ensure that a client isn’t under insured. In the event of a claim, does the company speak English? Who actually
deals with claims? Did you ever receive a policy when it was set up? Do you receive renewal documents each year? Many people have no idea who they are insured with or how much they pay annually, it just comes out of their bank with no reference to what it is for. EU Insurance have always prided themselves in giving good customer service, to help, advise and assist in any way possible in order to make your life in Spain easier. Peace of Mind always follows through with adequate life cover and Funeral Planning. EU now offers Funeral Plans from Liberty Seguros and costs range from only €10 a month, depending upon where you live in Spain. It’s a fantastic policy for little cost and includes setting up a Will. Need Peace of Mind, give EU Insurance a call and allow them to assess your needs and budget, you may well be pleasantly surprised at the levels of cover provided and they may save you money.

Going out with a bang
Cassandra Nash A weekly look - and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene
PENSIONED-OFF police commissioner Jose Villarejo who apparently had a finger in every unsavoury Spanish pie, is remanded in prison awaiting trial for money laundering and criminal activities. He secretly eavesdropped conversations that have embarrassed everyone from the former King to Cabinet ministers and he has made it known that three copies of the tapes are safely beyond reach outside Spain. He has boasted in prison that he is preparing a traca final - the ground-moving sequence of big bangs that ends a fireworks display. So if Villarejo is planning to go out with a bang, how many more public figures are already whimpering in private?
Getting priorities right PARTIDO POPULAR politician Celia Villalobos was twice fined for not supporting Alberto Ruiz allardon’s misogynist attempt at reforming Jose Luis Rodriguez’s Abortion Law. In 2013 she failed to turn up to vote against a PSOE motion calling for Ruiz-Gallardon’s Bill to be withdrawn and in 2014 voted with the socialists in another attempt to halt it. Other PP women privately agreed that unless
they had the cash to go to France or the UK, women who needed a termination could once again be left to the mercies of backstreet butchers. They kept quiet but Villalobos, put her money where her mouth was and had to shell out €1,300 in all, which was cheap at the price. Not long afterwards she was in disgrace for playing Candy Crush on her iPad in the parliament chamber during a Mariano Rajoy speech. And just recently she was seen in the parliament chamber, looking at clothes on internet
websites while her co-MPs were tearing into Justice minister Dolores Delgado. Respect, Celia. You get your priorities right every time.
Gamekeeper-turnedpoacher EDUARDO ZAPLANA, ex-former mayor of Benidorm, ex-president of the Valencian Com-
munity, ex-government minister and ex-government spokesman, is currently imprisoned on remand, accused of money laundering, misappropriation of public funds and misconduct in public office. To defend him he has engaged lawyer Daniel Campos, who belonged to the Public Prosecution department and specialised in corruption cases. We’ve heard of a poacher-turned-gamekeeper, but what better defence in a court of law than a gamekeeper-turned-poacher?
Whirlwind on the horizon WHO would be Quim Torra? Nominally regional president of Cataluña, he is a ventriloquist’s dummy for Carles Puigdemont, his predecessor who fled to Belgium following an inconclusive unilateral declaration of independence. Torra still has to maintain law and order for the 50 per cent of Catalans opposed to independence. There was trouble on the first anniversary of the October 1 independence referendum when the Committees for the Defence of the Republic (CDR), urged by Torra to ‘keep up the pressure,’ responded by blocking roads, motorways and the AVE railway lines. There’s only so much pressure that can be applied without breaking the law. So the regional government
had to call out the regional police force. Not known for wearing kid gloves, they charged energetically when hooded protesters tried to storm the regional parliament. “They’re not October 1 people,” Puigdemont insisted afterwards, but a year ago Catalan separatists sowed the wind and the radicals will reap a whirlwind. “Toto I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas,” Dorothy, herself a whirlwind victim, said in the Wizard of Oz. How long before we hear Torra say, “Carles, I’ve a feeling we’re not in Cataluña”?
MOUTHPIECE: Is Quim Torra simply a ventriloquist’s dummy for Carles Puigdemont?
Advertising Feature LIBERTY SEGUROS - the expats’ number one choice for insurance - is offering more discounts to both existing and new customers through a new Cashback promotion, from now until December 20, 2018.

DID YOU KNOW? Before becoming American President, George Washington fought for the British as a lieutenant colonel in the French and Indian War (1754 to 1763). Washington later led the United States in switching allegiance and fighting against the British in the American Revolutionary War from 1775 to 1783. He served as president from 1789 to 1797.
Something new which you started in recent weeks becomes more than a passing interest. Although it may be surprising to you, it is owing to a predictable situation. In opening your mind, you also seem to have opened your heart. Many people do that at this time of the year and so you are not alone.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20) Being totally inspired this week, you could be tempted to let enthusiasm run away with you. It is a lovely feeling, like being a child again. Be sure to have fun, but do keep as much money in your pocket as possible.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21)

There will be a certain amount of discussion regarding holiday plans. You know what you want but how do you persuade others? It's quite easy really. All you have to do is to get someone else to suggest a certain place. You then agree and it looks like their idea.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) You are so sharp that there is a danger you will cut yourself! Seriously, though, try not to appear pompous over a certain matter. You may be right and you may be clever, but smarty pants are rarely popular. Some of that sharpness gets things going for you in the love department, though.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) With everyone busy round you, the chance may be taken to show what you are capable of. Instead of watching someone make a pig's ear of a work project, offer to help. It's important, though, to let them think any bright ideas were theirs. Giving praise now will mean it coming back to you ten-fold.
LEO (July 24 - August 23) A business partnership takes on a romantic tinge this week. It is possible that the other party sees this as more significant than you. To avoid problems later it would be best to let them do all the running. Unless, of course, you are determined to run yourself. With a lot of excitement in the air it is possible for you to show just what fun you can be. Enjoy!
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) Your outgoing attitude is spot on. Some may say you are a little crazy, the way you go for things. Each person has their own way and yours can be quite unique but that certainly does not make it wrong. People who make the world around us that little bit more colourful are gems.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) Some legal matters need your attention. That's not really what you want at this time of the year. A decision has to be made and it needs a fine balance. Asking others may just confuse matters, so only seek expert advice. At the end of the day, you will know what is both best and acceptable.
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) A last-minute invitation turns out to be just the ticket in more ways than one. An invitation to join a holiday may be proffered. This is unusual, certainly, but keep an open mind. Your company is clearly well appreciated so why not make that a point of pride? Let's face it, who is best equipped to blow your trumpet?
SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) Someone you mistrust offers to add to your celebrations. Why not call a truce? We both know that little long term will come out of it, but who cares? Sometimes, it is better to share one good moment with someone than none at all.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) As you are in the limelight, it comes as no surprise that admiration comes your way. What may surprise you, however, is the direction it comes from. Who would have thought that such a situation would arise?

BIRTHDAYS
ROCK god Roger Daltrey was the frontman of one the most successful bands of all time. But it all could have ended so differently if his secondary school head teacher had had his way. Thanks a lot Mr Kibblewhite is an autobiography exploring Daltrey’s life from his birth during the Blitz to getting wrongly expelled from school aged 15. Just as it seemed he was resigned to life as a factory worker, Daltrey instead discovered music, making his first guitar himself and forming The Who. In his book, Daltrey explores how the post-war generation shook up the world, breaking the rules of music, fashion and success. Thanks a lot Mr Kibblewhite covers more than 50 years of life at the frontline of rock and roll. Written over four years, it offers insight into a vital point in the development of modern music as well as plenty of tales of youthful excess.

WHEN former FBI agent Will Sawyer is tasked with ensuring the security of the world’s tallest skyscraper, little does he know an international terrorist plot will threaten his job, his life and his family. Using Sawyer’s own high-tech security systems against him, assassins start a deadly blaze at the top of the skyscraper leaving Sawyer’s family trapped. Can the agent navigate the building and save his family before it’s too late? Starring Dwayne ‘the Rock’ Johnson and Neve Campbell, Skyscraper was this summer’s action blockbuster, grossing more than $301 million (€261.40 million) worldwide.

(Left for dead Almeria Issue 1735). She should suffer imprisonment of at least three months or more. She is also barred from working with dogs, not barred from keeping them!! As long as she is not caught, she will probably do exactly the same to some other poor animals. She has received no punishment at all. Laughable, if it was not so sad. Roger Brown
Love the EWN I LOVE your newspaper with the crosswords and local news. One of the greatest ideas of your paper is the Letters page. To get other peoples’ opinions and suggestions is so interesting, it is just a pity more space could not be dedicated to them. In Issue 1735 you published a letter from Michael Hill regarding Jesus and religion. Jesus (whether he existed or not) was a great invention/creation and message.
HAVE YOUR SAY

No laughing matter Making a stand can bring rewards HAVING the courage to confront injustice is never easy. Perversely, the often long and difficult journey makes as many enemies as friends, and the temptation to give up becomes strong. Hard lessons are learnt along the way: such as the innate ability of those who hold the power to defend the indefensible; that the legal system can cloud issues rather than clarify, and become part of the problem; that politicians’ promises are merely words.

HEARING: EU investigating Monte Pego problem. When this involves the sewage system for 1,500 dwellings, the problems can rapidly become serious. For the residents of the beautiful urbanisation of Monte Pego, on the Costa Blanca, they did. For many years the water discharged from the sewage treatment plant had not been properly treated and Pego Town Hall paid large fines for the pollution. By 2017 this pollution had become almost raw sewage, as confirmed by laboratory tests arranged by the Residents
Association, Pro Monte Pego (PMP). Something had to be done. The town hall still refused to act, even though the large Marjal Natural Park and rice fields stand directly in the line of the pollution. In order to protect the urbanisation, the stunning Natural Park’s flora and fauna, and the good name of the area, the bold decision was taken in the summer of 2017 to petition the EU Parliament. It took courage, but the cause was just, the rewards potentially enormous. Political pressure from the EU could unlock the stalemate. To the great delight of the PMP Association the EU Petitions Committee accepted the submission - a triumph in itself - and over the last six months evidence has been gathered and shared with the EU. Now the exciting news has arrived that members of PMP have been invited to Brussels to appear before the committee, and hear their verdict. If the EU supports the petition, then the political pressure on the town hall and other authorities will be of huge help, and of course, vindication for the courage to stand up for justice. It would be the best possible good news story. Anton Leest

Here was a man who asked nothing for himself. Not money, nor power but had a simple message - do unto others as you would have them do unto you. It doesn’t really matter if HE didn’t say it or who said it or if he existed - it’s a damn good and sane idea to follow. I was brought up in a mixed religious family - Catholic and Protestant and everyone got along with each other. I can’t recall any discussions/arguments about religion - maybe we were the lucky ones. I too am horrified and disgusted about the behaviour of these paedophile clerics. They should be, defrocked, stripped of their ‘titles’ and banned from ever having contact with children. I read some time ago that the reason priests are forbidden to marry is the business of inheritance. If a married priest died (coming from a rich family ) his inheritance went to his wife and family. But if he was not married his money would go to the church. I think we should all do - as far as possible - the right thing and remember the old adage; the love of money is the root of all evil. And as Leapy would say - Keep the peace. Olivia Qualtrough

Nick Horne The Rich Pick Freelance correspondent, London, England A WIDE body jet is not a small thing. It’s quite big and roomy. A cabin length a touch over 50 metres, some five metres in width, in airline configuration would carry 440 passengers. It could have several rooms instead. As you regularly fly from Marbella, Mallorca or Malaga you will be familiar with Boeings and Airbus aircraft, most probably B737s and A320s. These aircraft types are the work horses of short haul. On longer range flights you will be familiar with the larger aircraft types and these are a real step up in comfort and service levels. Recall to mind the last occasion you walked aboard, the long narrow aisle before you and the guided search for your seat. Imagine something else; coming home onboard your very own aircraft. An ACJ350 with a cabin space of 2,910 square feet or 270 square metres at your personal disposal. Not just one tightish seat and seat back with an entertainment system, but a panoramic window looking out across the curve of the rim of the planet. Or a cyber window that will display a view of anywhere through a digital window in the side of the aircraft. A convivial meal served at a dining table, a shower before a restful sleep in a full size bed. Of course you may not travel alone. Your crew of eight and the aircraft can accommodate a throng of 25 chosen to make up your select party. All will be very well cared for indeed as you travel home.

company headquartered in the German city of Hamburg with a truly global footprint, outfit aircraft and care for them. Nose to tail. They know how impatient you as an owner can be to get airborne. Once you have acquired your aircraft from Airbus you do not want to spend two or three years while it is outfitted. In a collaboration with Mercedes Benz, the automobile manufacturer, a ‘style sheet’ has been created allied to their investment in the preparatory engineering design being developed and executed so that the interval between construction of your Airbus A350 and its outfitting and delivery to you is as brief as possible. Besides providing connectivity in flight that is now considered essential and normal, issues around health and well-being are addressed also. This unique cabin concept places the human being at the centre and was first presented at Geneva and most recently at the Monaco Yacht Show as ‘Welcome Home.’ A contemporary solution as the spaces or rooms in the cabin are flexible and allow for individual privacy or valuable family time.
Dr Who, didn’t she do well?
by Adam Whalley-Lewis DR WHO returned to BBC1 on Sunday and despite the first episode of the new series being set in Sheffield (was I the only one expecting the guys from The Full Monty to put in a guest appearance?) Jodie Whittaker landed pretty well. I’m guessing that a gaggle of male fans now won’t now need to hide their Dr posters and I’m pretty sure Jodie will have some female fans too. I wasn’t too sure about Bradley Walsh being the Dr’s sidekick, I mean, would The Governess even fit in the Tardis, but he was great and so were Mandip Gill and Tosin Cole. The new Doctor handled a beast roaming the back streets of Sheffield, memory loss and all new hair and make up with ease. You don’t need to already be a fan or to watch each week to enjoy the new series, but a little bit like having your personal favourite James Bond, you might find yourself being slightly nostalgic for an earlier time when you hid behind the sofa when the daleks appeared. Dr Who continues next Sunday on BBC1. Sticking with BBC1 and Sunday evening, Claudia and Tess were back to guide us

GOOD START: Jodie Whittaker is the new Dr Who. through the latest offering from Strictly Come Dancing last week and boy did we need a guide. Gladys Knight was fab-u-lous, who doesn’t love a James Bond theme, but as for the rest of the show, what on earth was going on? I had barely recovered from Bruno throwing himself off his chair, presumably attention seeking, when the professional dancers appeared in a sort of home-made fish pond, proceeded to cover each other in water, were rained on and then all headed off for a hot shower.
Some classics, Singing in the Rain amongst them, don’t need a modern take thank you and certainly not one where the objective was to make the dance costumes see-through. What would Sir Bruce have made of it? Lee Ryan and Nadiya Bychkova were the second couple to be voted off, which surprised nobody, least of all Lee. Your next dose of Strictly is on BBC1, Saturday evening. Monkman and Seagull concluded their (very strange) Genius Guide to Britain on
BBC2, Monday evening. If you haven’t heard of Eric and Bobby before, they found fame (not my words) via University Challenge and as the BBC seems to like to do, were given their own show. You will recognise the format, put two celebrities in a car and film them driving around Britain. The problem here though is that Eric and Bobby are brilliant at being really academic and their intellect is beyond question, but you get the sense that Mum did their road trip packing and someone in the production crew needed to remind them to put petrol in the car. They tried to use their brilliance to work stuff out, but even when they got it a bit wrong (they didn’t actually manage to get the height of that well-known mast in Yorkshire right) they still congratulated themselves for being brilliant. Maybe a better pairing would have been The Archbishop of York and Jeremy Kyle, what do you think? Speaking of Archbishop John, he’s got a gig on Friday this week at the wedding of Jack and Princess Eugenie, ITV Friday morning. Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes will be wearing their posh frocks to play TV host, well that’s if HMRC haven’t caught up with Eamonn and impounded his top hat.

WE all know the feeling. Work, family commitments, bills, social functions and travel start to pile up, leaving it easy to feel we have too little time to just relax. That’s why one yoghurt company, Kaiku, is sharing tips on juggling all of one’s life’s responsibilities, freeing up more time to spend on the things we enjoy most. The manufacturer, which has just launched its new lactose-free product, MIX, claims multitasking is the answer for those with too little time on their hands. Kaiku, whose new product comes with an in-built spoon and is designed to be eaten on the go, says we should take advantage of small moments, whether it’s while waiting in traffic or on public transport, to check on our to-do lists, planning our week’s shopping or evening meals. The company also suggests planning ahead and taking healthy snacks such as yoghurt with us when we travel, preventing the need to stop for a prolonged meal when

The company suggests a good way to change our look without effort is to invest in versatile clothes which can transition from an office outfit to a night-time event: a colourful blazer, a printed dress or experimenting with accessories and shoes can transform a look completely. The company explains the most important way to manage our time when we have competing responsibilities is to maintain a positive attitude. Kaiku explains leaving too little time for ourselves can be damaging and that it is important to be aware that there will be days when we are less productive than others. Finally, it advises, “to maintain a positive attitude, there is nothing like celebrating fulfilled goals and taking a break. Attitude is everything.”

Brain food WITH life expectancy ever increasing, many of us are looking for ways to improve our quality of life and reverse any damage caused by an unhealthy lifestyle. Fortunately, researchers in Spain have found a way of reversing brain damage brought about by high-fat diets. A study at the Jaume I University in Castella de la Plana found mice which were given high levels of fat developed damage to their nervous system similar to that in Alzheimer’s patients, but that this was reversed when they were fed a plant hormone. This hormone, abscisic acid, was found to reduce inflammation in the part of the brain where we store memories. Researchers believe this effect may be caused because abscisic acid helps regulate insulin levels which, when out of balance, can cause inflammation in insulin receptors in the hippocampus, the region of the brain which governs long-term memories. Inflammation of the nervous-system and unregulated insulin levels are both linked to Alzheimer’s Disease and other forms of dementia. The study’s author, Alberto Ribes Navarro, explained: “We have been able to prove that the expression of proteins required for the proper functioning of insulin decreases in neuro-inflammatory situations

induced by a high-fat diet.” He added: “With the addition of abscisic acid to the high-fat diet it is possible to rebalance the regulation of these genes, even helping them reach normal levels.” Abscisic acid is found in a plant’s xylem (the stem) and is used by plants to help with growth and development of tolerance to harsh conditions. The hormone is found naturally in fruit and vegetables. A 2015 study into the acid also found it played a role in regulating blood sugar, which could in turn help delay the development of diabetes. Ana Maria Sanchez, who headed up this latest study, shows how this new evidence goes even further, even undoing damage caused by an unhealthy lifestyle. She concluded: “We have verified how a vegetable hormone, abscisic acid, is able to counter the negative effects that a high-fat diet has on the central nervous system.”
Beautiful calendars WHILE Christmas may still be some way off, beauty companies aren’t wasting any time promoting what are tipped to be this year’s hottest gifts beauty advent calendars. So with everyone from M&S to Harrods getting in on the act, are they worth the money? Beauty advent calendars work in much the same way as regular ones, ie there are 25 individual sections to open. The difference here is these calendars - generally much larger than average - offer sample or travel sized products in a series of drawers, often ending with a full sized product on the 25th.
While this may seem gimmicky, and of course you may not like every product, some of these sets offer major discounts on products costing much more if bought separately.

The English Funeral Directors, based on the Costa del Sol was created some 20 years ago in order to offer expatriates a service which will steer them through all of the requirements of Spanish law and ensure that the important administrative work is completed on their behalf. Traditions and practice with regards to death in the UK are quite different to those in Spain, where the deceased is normally buried within 24 hours but if required, the English Funeral Directors can arrange to delay the process so that friends and family can be alerted and travel over for the ceremony.

AS regular readers of my weekly rant fest know, I am one of the world’s finest armchair experts on all things sport. Near the top of the things I enjoy most is F1 motor racing and I’m a particularly big fan of Lewis Hamilton. I always watch it if I can. This week Lewis Hamilton won the Russian Grand Prix and traditionally, at the end of the race, there would be a great celebration. He usually leaps from his car, runs over to his massive team of mechanics and other Mercedes team members, and jumps at them hi-fiving and hugging the ones at the front. This week’s win did not go like that at all. Lewis sat in his car till the second place driver, his teammate Valtteri Bottas, got out of his car. Lewis then just walked over to Valtteri, shook his hand and told him he was sorry, then walked slowly off over to the Mercedes team. He shook a few hands and then went inside not really wanting to talk to anyone else. So why? Well this is the reason I’m grumpy. He didn’t actually win. He went over the line first
but not because he was the best driver on the day, but because of team orders that forced his teammate Bottas to move over and let Hamilton win. This is wrong in so many ways. Winning is not winning if you have to cheat and that’s what they did. They cheated the best driver on the day out of his rightful place. It wasn’t even that if Hamilton came second they would still not be in front in either the manufacturer’s or driver’s championship. And what about if you like a little flutter and had a few bob on Bottas to win, after seeing how he had performed to get pole position (first on grid)? How can this not be race fixing? If this is now the acceptable way of winning a race it shouldn’t be. The best have to win. We mustn’t let this ‘win at any cost’ get worse than it is. In F1 it’s obvious if it happens, but it’s the same in all sports. In the Olympics the whole of the Russian team was banned for drug taking. Lance Armstrong was a multi-winner but only because of drugs and the list goes on. I think the rules for F1 have to be changed. There must not be team orders. Every driver is there to win, not to make up the numbers. Mercedes should be fined and made to forfeit points. Let the old saying ‘May the best man win’ actually mean something. mikesenker@gmail.com

Have you met your inner-self? we’re having a bad day ourselves. Obviously this is easier said than done, which is why we need to be conscious of it and conscientious in our efforts to be more empathetic and considerate. Being kind to oneself too is perhaps equally advisable. We can’t waste our lives punishing ourselves for what we haven’t achieved or think we can’t do, or isolating ourselves from others due to unfathomable fears. If we’re struggling and suffering to accomplish something perhaps we’re not going about it the right way. If what we’re doing doesn’t make us feel good, we need to find a different path. The right path should just flow like a well-written symphony. Whatever we feel will resonate with everything and everyone in our path; we are vibration and it is in everyone’s interest to play in harmony and finding our innerselves is fundamental if we want to strike the right chord.

Update on food, drink, entertainments, what’s on and weekly happenings
Positively the best ball ever IT’S a complete sell out with no tickets left for the annual Positively Pink Ball being held at El Oceano Hotel in La Cala de Mijas. This is a fundraiser to outdo most fundraisers when residents and regular visitors to Mijas dig deep into their pockets to help raise money for Positively Pink, the breast cancer screening charity set up by Lorraine Palmer following her own scare (which happily was not positive) several years ago. There is no doubt that one of the biggest problems that anyone who suspects that they may have breast cancer could face is the time between the initial test and diagnosis. Positively Pink looks to try to have this traumatic period cut to as short a time as possible and if the worst news is confirmed then there
will be someone on hand to offer both help and counselling. This is a completely voluntary organisation with no paid for staff and all funds received go towards underwriting the costs of the tests. Donations are always welcome and there are several smaller events during the year to raise funds, but the Positively Pink Ball being held tonight (Thursday) is the main method of raising muchneeded funds and every year, more people seem to find the time and ability to dig deeper into their pockets to help those who may need treatment. This year, the event starts at 7pm with the three Cs, Champagne, canapes and cello music before the guest compere Ethan Allen invites guests to enjoy a fabulous meal in-
terspersed with some great live entertainment and possibly the largest auction with the most number of superb gifts donated by supporters in this the 12th year of the Ball. Every year, a special celebrity auctioneer flies out from the UK to encourage bidding and this year, the guest is Dan Hatfield of Posh Pawnbrokers TV fame who is now working with his sister Cherise on a new programme Super Salon. Some of the auction items include rare sporting memorabilia and a trip to Las Vegas and there will be other fundraising activities, as well as a special announcement from Lorraine Palmer regarding the screening of women. People travel from the UK to be part of this super event held at the Palmer’s popular El Oceano Hotel.

Grow your own veggies WITH healthy eating on the rise and increasing food costs, there’s never been a better time to have a go at growing your own fruit and vegetables. Spain’s soil can be very fertile and with a little effort a vegetable patch here could prove very productive. Autumn weather may be cooler but temperatures are still warm enough to grow many crops, so why not try out some of the foods suggested below? Spinach is a great source of iron and can be grown both in a container or in the ground, providing leaves for salads and numerous other dishes once mature. Garlic has also been shown to be beneficial for heart health and also excels in Spanish growing conditions. Plant out using existing bulbs bought for eating and place in the soil root down around four inches apart. Expect growth around spring time. Carrots are fantastic vegetables for eye health and are a rich source
of antioxidants which can reduce the risk of cancer. They also do well in Spanish climates and can be grown from seed straight in the soil in rows around three to four inches apart. Plant in soil that is damp but not wet and do not allow the seeds to dry out. Spring onions provide excellent flavouring to a variety of dishes, particularly oriental food. They also provide good amounts of vitamins A, K, and C. Plant out shopbought spring onions roots down after first drilling a hole in welldrained soil around 1.5cm deep and at least 15cm away from other crops. Be careful not to over-water. Finally, the humble potato makes up a large part of many dishes, from a plate of chips to mash, roasties, and even hash browns. This staple can easily be grown at home by first buying potatoes with sprouts already growing from them. Cut these sections off and place them in a warm, moderately

the plant begins to grow, fill up soil around the sprout when it reaches around eight inches, leaving only
around four inches of plant showing before harvesting when the potatoes mature.
The smarter way ‘LIFE’S too short,’ as they say. And with constant pressures on our time most of us would welcome ways to make the best of it. While over-use of technology gets rather a bad rap, some advances can help make our lives easier and give us back more free time. So if you’re a
gadget fan who always seems to be pushed for time, why not consider one of the many smart devices now available for homes? The kitchen is where we can spend hours each week, preparing meals, restocking supplies and making endless hot drinks. Luckily, advances in technolo-
gy have made these processes easier, offering products such as smart fridges. These appliances offer the same advantages as normal fridges but with a built-in tablet on the front door which functions as a communication centre for the rest of the house and even takes photographs of the

inside of your fridge to let you know what foods you’re low on. Smart technology can help the hardiest of caffeine addicts, allowing us to cut down on the amount of time spent waiting for the kettle to boil and instead wake up or come home to already-prepared coffee. A connected coffee machine, which can be controlled via smartphone, can make the perfect cup every time. If a cocktail after a hard day is more your thing, a smart drink maker might be the answer. A smart scale weighs liquids as you add them to a glass, using an app to tell you which order to put the ingredients in and claiming to mix the perfect drink every time. There’s no reason the kitchen gets to have all the best gadgets though, and there are certainly plenty of connected devices for the rest of the home. From robotic vacuums which automatically clean your floors before returning to their base to
recharge to smart locks which use an app to secure the deadbolt already fitted on your door, technology is changing the way we use our homes and, crucially, freeing up time to relax.

MANY folk have so many different opinions of the muzzle. Of course anyone that sees a dog with a muzzle automatically assumes that the dog is dangerous, although this is not always the case. There are many types of muzzles but whatever one you choose make certain that the dog is able to breathe. The muzzle that I recommend is the Baskerville which is marketed by the eminent Roger Mugford. This is a basket design and allows near unrestricted mouth opening for panting and drinking. These are available at most good pet shops and many vets stock them. They come in 12 sizes to ensure that a good fit is available for most breeds of dogs.

Dog muzzles
MUZZLES: There are many different types.
KT16 OPU UK. Google them. I encourage all owners to
train their dogs to wear a muzzle, the earlier in the dog’s life the better. Most
young dogs are destructive; a muzzle will protect your home from being eaten.
A muzzle will ensure that your dog is unable to eat any rubbish or poison on the
ground that alone is worth training for. When visiting the vet it can also be useful for nervous dogs to wear a muzzle and also when a dog has been operated on. Wearing a muzzle is another way to prevent him from licking the wound. In the event of an emergency, if you do not have a muzzle then one can always tie the leash around the dog’s mouth to prevent it biting. I would add that a muzzle does not cure bad behaviour but it is useful whilst an effective therapeutic strategy is developed.

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.

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.

STAR BECKING: David Beckham helped to promote the Vinfast brand.
Vinfast vies for attention VINFAST, a subsidiary of Vietnemese conglomerate Vingroup, unveiled its first two passenger vehicles to large crowds of curious journalists at the Paris Motor Show on Tuesday. This relatively new entrant to the world of car manufacturing revealed an SUV and a saloon in what is thought to be a long line of planned machines including a range of electric cars, buses and scooters. The LUX A2.0 Sedan and the LUX SA2.0 SUV are Italian designed, with European technology and ‘Vietnamese spirit.’ They are understood to have been developed following an unusual nationwide poll of 62,000 people in Vietnam, in which participants chose their favourite design from a range of sketches. The results are sleek and modern, and Le Thi Thu Thuy, chairwoman of VinFast, said: “With our ambitious plans to bring these two vehicles to market in such a short time, it was crucial for us to make a big entrance and an immediate impact, and we certainly did that today.”
Ex-football star David Beckham also addressed the crowds at the press conference, with Beckham stating that it was ‘a thrill to be in Paris to celebrate the arrival of a new carmaker on the global stage.’ He added that he could see how the VinFast design team had been able to evoke ‘such a beautiful country in the lines of these amazing new cars.’ With the cars due to be delivered to Vietnamese motorists from September 2019, and international markets thereafter, Le Le Thi Thu Thuy acknowledged the short timescale to which they were working. Vingroup launched the project just over a year ago and has already built a sprawling 355-hectare factory in northern Vietnam, capable of producing a rumoured 250,000 cars per year. “It is crucial for us to make a big entrance and an immediate impact,” she added, perhaps explaining why David Beckham was brought in for the unveiling.
JOINING FORCES: SoftBank and Toyota believe automation is the future. TOYOTA and SoftBank are forming a joint venture to offer services using autonomous vehicles, in a sign that both are taking significant steps into the technology. The business, which will be called Monet Technologies Corp, will start with two billion yen (€15.3 million) in capital. It will initially be focusing on the Japanese market, offering ride-hailing services for public agencies and private companies, before looking to go global. SoftBank said the company could eventually perform a whole host of ‘just in time’ services, such as preparing food in transit as it is being delivered,
combining its platform for the internet of things with Toyota’s connected vehicle technology. Monet will not develop its own autonomous vehicles, instead looking at the services that such vehicles can provide. SoftBank founder Masayoshi said the mobility company was “just the first step.” He said: “There will be a second and third and I hope that the connection will deepen going forward.” The decision to form a joint venture, of which SoftBank will own just over half, comes as the latest in a series of efforts by both companies to move into driverless technology.

Toyota earlier this year debuted a self-driving research car, and at the start of the year, revealed it was developing an ‘e-Palette’ service, which would offer convoys of shuttle, autonomous vehicles for multiple purposes. The Japanese car-maker has also invested €437 million in Uber and €870 million in rival ride-hailing company Grab. Meanwhile SoftBank has also been investing heavily in the technology, pumping €2 billion into General Motors’ selfdriving business Cruise. It also has holdings in Uber and Grab, as well as Chinese company Didi Chuxing and India’s Ola. Vivek Vaidya, Asia Pacific vice president for automotive and transport at Frost and Sullivan, said that partnerships were “the way to go.” “SoftBank has various strategic investments in e-hailing companies and now they have started expanding in developing new chip specifically for autonomous cars. Toyota may want to benefit from that.”

WONDER GOAL: Aaron Ramsay’s backheeled goal came after he’d just entered the pitch.
The Blues have now won nine of their 11 games across all competitions this season, while Southampton remain without a win against the Premier League’s big six in 26 games. Chelsea will entertain Manchester United on October 20, with Southampton travelling to Bournemouth. Riyad Mahrez missed a glorious opportunity to claim all three points for Manchester City against Liverpool at Anfield, when he skied a late penalty into the stands. It was an otherwise cagey and dull 0-0 draw, and City have not won a league game at Anfield for 15 years. Liverpool’s star attacking trio were unable to impose themselves as City defenders Aymeric Laporte and John Stones excelled themselves at the back. However, both managers were pleased with the result which sees them tied at the top of the league with Chelsea. Liverpool will be hosted by Huddersfield on October 20, while Man City will face Burnley. Other fixtures after the international break will see West Ham host Tottenham, Crystal Palace travel to Everton, and Newcastle entertain Brighton.
La Liga Preview
Atletico saved by Angel ANGEL CORREA scored the winning goal as Atletico Madrid went third in La Liga by edging past Real Betis 1-0. Substitute Correa stroked home low into the corner from the edge of the box following Thomas Partey’s flicked pass. Atletico had gone top temporarily on Sunday, but were pushed down to third after Sevilla beat Celta Vigo 2-1. Real Madrid extended their winless run to four games as Manu Garcia’s late goal secured a shock 1-0 win for Alaves. Garcia headed the winner in the fifth minute of added time to clinch Alaves’ first La Liga victory over Real since 1931. The win moves Alaves joint top of the table alongside big-hitters Barcelona and Real Madrid. Jolen Lopetegui’s side have now lost three times in four matches without scoring. Lionel Messi’s fine goal was not enough as Barcelona were held to a frustrating 1-1 with Valencia. Barca fell behind when Gerard Pique made a mess of a clearance and Ezequiel Garay tapped in at the back post. Messi then swapped passes with Luis Suarez and
drilled in from 20 yards to equalise. But despite having 75 per cent of possession, Barca could only muster five shots all game, and could not find a winner.

AARON RAMSEY scored a goal of the season contender as Arsenal thrashed Fulham 5-1 at Craven Cottage. Alexandre Lacazette scored two impressive goals before substitute Ramsay added a third and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang netted twice. After losing their opening two Premier League games to Manchester City and Chelsea, Arsenal are showing real signs of progress under manager Unai Emery. A sixth consecutive league victory moves the Gunners up to fourth in the table, while Fulham remain just above the drop zone in 17th. Arsenal will next host Leicester on October 22, while Fulham will travel to Cardiff. Chelsea claimed a classy 3-0 win at Southampton, with Ross Barkley setting up their opener with a fine pass to Eden Hazard who finished clinically. Barkley then got on the scoresheet himself, tapping in from Olivier Giroud’s acrobatic cross. Alvaro Morato capped off proceedings with Chelsea’s third in injury time, chipping over oncoming goalkeeper Alex McCarthy after a slick passing move.

WALES will assess Gareth Bale’s fitness for the friendly against Spain on October 11, and the Nations League match on October 16. The 29 year-old forward was replaced in the 80th minute of Real Madrid’s 1-0 La Liga loss at Alaves on Saturday. Real boss Julen Lopetegui said: “Gareth had an injury, so we had to make decisions regarding changes.” Bale – his country’s record goalscorer – sat out training with the Wales squad in Cardiff on Monday. Spain’s side is likely to contain several of Bale’s Real Madrid team-mates, who would love to take bragging rights back to Real’s dressing room. But if he is carrying a knock, Bale may not be risked at the Principality Stadium because Wales are then in competitive action against the Republic in Dublin five days later. Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsay was also absent from training with Ryan Giggs’

UGLY scenes marred UFC 229 as lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov began a brawl by the octagon after beating Conor McGregor. Seconds after landing a fourth-round submission, the Russian vaulted the cage and headed towards Irishman McGregor ’s team, where a chaotic scuffle ensued. Meanwhile McGregor was attacked by members of Khabib’s team in the octagon, including a full punch in the face. Three of Nurmagomedov’s party were arrested, but as McGregor refused to press charges, they were released. The Nevada State Commission which sanctioned the bout, has withheld the Russian’s fight payment pending an investigation. UFC president Dana White said: “Police officers were getting punched, security guys were getting punched. I actually think police and security did an incredible job.” TYRELL HATTON lost a four-stroke lead on the back nine as Denmark’s Lucas Bjerregaard won the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship by a single shot.

GEORGIA’S Nikoloz Basilashvili followed up his win over Great Britain’s Kyle Edmund by beating number four Juan Martin del Potro in straight sets in the final of the China Open. World number 34 Basilashvili recorded a 6-4 6-4 win over the top seed in one hour 40 minutes in Beijing, having beaten Edmund in the semi-finals. Basilashvili claimed the solitary early break in the third game of the first set, and after digging deep to hold for a 4-2 lead, the Georgian served out the opener in 45 minutes. A tight second set followed with the first break
point arriving in the eighth game, with Basilashvili eventually holding. Basilashvili finally broke del Potro in the following game to serve for the match after a poor attempted drop shot from the Argentinian failed to clear the net. Del Potro survived back-to-back match points, but Basilashvili took the third opportunity to seal the victory. Basilashvili is set to move up to 23rd in the world rankings on Monday. At the Japan Open, Daniil Medvedev beat Kei Nishikori 6-2 6-4 in the final.

tour title. Four shots behind overnight, the 27-year-old world number 92 began his final round at the 18th on the Old Course under the ‘Shotgun Start’ system and made the first of six birdies. He was six adrift with 12 holes to play, but when he rolled in a birdie putt from the edge of the 16th green he was two clear, and a dropped shot at his final hole, the infamous Road Hole 17th, could not deny him the title. “It didn’t really look like I was ever in it today, it looked like Tyrrell was going to take off with it,” said Bjerregaard, whose other title was the 2017 Portugal Masters.
“I was trucking away at it. I've been playing well for a little while and I played really well today and I’m really pleased that it was enough.” Ryder Cup favourite Tommy Fleetwood dropped only one shot in a final day 69 to share second. At the Safeway Open in Arizona, American Kevin Tway holed three consecutive bogies in a play-off to claim victory and win his first PGA Tour title. The 30-year-old son of 1986 US PGA Championship winner Bob Tway, beat Ryan Moore and Brandt Snedeker after all three finished on 14 under. Snedeker at one point held a five-shot lead during the final round, but was eliminated on the first play-off hole after only managing par.
