Brits’ D-Day flight
CHARITY FLIGHT: Hodder (left) and Roberts (right) are commemorating the D-Day landings.
By Joe Gerrard TWO former British RAF pilots are set to fly from Britain to southern Spain in a selfbuilt plane to mark 75 years since the D-Day landings for charity. Andy Hodder and Andy Roberts are due to fly their Skyranger Swift II from Port Talbot in Wales to Malaga Province in August. They are
aiming to raise almost €2,170 for Help for Heroes. Andy said they would fly over Normandy to commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-Day. His grandfather took part in the landings in June 1944. “We will be making some flights in his honour and memory while also commemorating the landings,” Andy said.
“We also wanted to raise funds for our modern day military heroes,” the pilot added. The flight is set to take them from Port Talbot to Dover to Calais, before flying west towards Normandy. They then fly south over the French-Spanish border, down Spain’s east coast before landing in Malaga Province.

FINANCE LUCKY ESCAPE: The festival honours those who have cheated death.
Life and death THIS picture of people being carried in coffins in Galicia comes as a town in the region prepares to mark a festival celebrating near death experiences on Monday. The Fiesta de Santa Marta de Ribarteme, also known as the Festival of Near Death Experiences, takes place in Las Nieves in Galicia’s Pontevedra Province every J u l y. I t t a k e s i t s S p a n i s h n a m e from the town’s church. The festival, as the name suggests, celebrates people who have narrowly escaped death during the
previous year. The event typically attracts thousands of onlookers. They travel to Las Nieves and climb into open caskets before being carried through its streets by other festival goers. Families who have had no member with near death experiences carry empty coffins as a mark of respect. T h e c o ff i n s a r e c a r r i e d t o t h e Church of Santa Marta de Ribarmete’s cemetery where festival goers pray to the saint. ‘Virgin Santa Marta, star of the north, we bring you those who saw
death,’ those at the festival traditionally say. They then give thanks for the lives saved and give gifts to the saint as a token of gratitude. The Fiesta de Santa Marta de Ribarteme has its roots not only in Christianity but also in paganism. Saint Martha of Bethany was the brother to the biblical figure Lazarus who Jesus Christ raised from the dead, according to Christian teachings. July 29 is her feast day in the Catholic and Protestant churches.
‘Months’ for treatment Court suspends jail time THE wife of a 59-year-old man who suffered a severe stroke and was left partially paralysed in December has complained to health authorities over their refusal to transfer him. Concepcion Campos told Spanish media her husband Fernando Castro had spent four months waiting for a transfer to Torremolinos’ Hospital Maritimo. Castro suffered strokes in Feburary and in March and is currently being treated in Malaga Regional Hospital. Campos said health authority’s refusal to transfer him to Torremolinos prevented him from beginning his rehabilitation. “My husband’s neurologist and other doctors are in favour of the transfer but the clinic has rejected him because we live in Las Lagunas. Time passes and nothing is fixed,” Campos said. The 59-year-old’s wife added she was told her husband had to go to Marbella’s Costa del Sol Hospital despite never being treated there. Medical sources confirmed they had to seek rehabilitation in Marbella.

A MALAGA City court has suspended the two-year prison sentence of a 26-year-old man jailed for killing a mugger who tried to rob a woman in Fuengirola. The Ninth Criminal Court ruled 26-year-old Borja W could stay out of prison unless he commits another crime within the next four years. He was also previously fined €180,000 over the killing. The court is currently reviewing his ability to pay. The ruling follows the original sentence for the 26-year-old over the February 2015 killing. He saw Maria Jesus GR being assaulted by Pedro T and Isabel C and followed the former, punched him in the face and left him after he fell. The mugger was left with a cerebral haemorrhage which killed him two days later. The original sentence spawned a crowdfunding campaign from the far-right Vox to pay his fine. The 26-year-old refused the money before later accepting it.

Competitors are set to gather on the town’s Costa Lago beach for the fifth annual Sardine Skewer Contest. It is being organised by the Business Circle of Torremolinos (CET). Adolfo Trigueros, president of CET, said each con-

Local author publishes A WRITER living in Marbella has spoken to Euro Weekly News about a book she has selfpublished based on her mother’s life story. Karen Brady, originally from Birmingham in the UK, said ‘Agnes in Bloom’ took her 12 years to write while she ran a recruitment business. Karen said it felt ‘fantastic’ to have selfpublished the book. “The memoir is based on my mother who had quite an interesting life. Her story is inspirational and is about overcoming adversity and death,” Karen said. “It talks about situations that any woman could fall into,” she added. The memoir begins in inner-city Birming-
ham during the Second World War. Agnes has to confront the absence of her father, the loss of her little brother and being raped aged 17, leaving her pregnant. She grows up to become a single mother, challenging society’s norms and expectations in the 1960s while bringing up eight children and keeping child services at bay. Karen was the seventh child of Agnes. She said her upbringing was handled by a ‘humble and loving’ family. The writer was previously a business owner and has lived and worked in Dubai, San Diego, Bali and Koh Samuni before settling in Marbella. She is currently writing her own memoirs which are a comedy.

BREXIT BRIEF Expats join protest MEMBERS of a group representing pro-Remain British expatriates travelled to London on Saturday to demonstrate against Conservative leadership frontrunner Boris Johnson’s Brexit stance. Members of the Bremain in Spain group joined around 100,000 demonstrators in the British capital for the No to Boris, Yes to Europe march. Bremain in Spain said in a statement they went in part to stand in solidarity with the 3.8 million EU citizens living in Britain who continue to face Brexit uncertainty. Sue Wilson, chairperson of the group, said: “Over the last three years, British citizens in the EU and European citizens in Britain have been cruelly denied a voice on matters that affect them significantly. “That’s why it’s important to take every opportunity to be seen and heard in Westminster.” Wilson branded Johnson a ‘serial liar’ as she addressed crowds at the march. “We’re here because Johnson, largely responsible for getting us in this mess, is about to blag his way into Number 10,” Wilson said. Bremain in Spain Vice Chairperson John Moffett said: “With the immediate prospect of a new, populist prime minister, it’s more important than ever to take to the streets and demonstrate the benefits of EU membership. “It’s key that the Remain voice roars, to show we’re still here and not giving up.” Johnson did not comment on the march.

Johnson won the race with more than 92,150 votes, beating rival Jeremy Hunt who won 46,656 votes. The former Foreign Secretary and ex-mayor of London said it was an ‘extraordinary honour and privilege’ to be elected party leader. He also praised his predecessor Theresa May despite previously slamming her Brexit deal and resigning from the cabinet in protest against her approach. Johnson secured victory by campaigning on a hard-line Brexit platform. He said leaving the EU before the Thursday, October 31 deadline was a ‘matter of life and death.’ Hunt in contrast said he would be open to further delays if necessary. Johnson also suggested he would be prepared to suspend or ‘prorogue’ parliament in order to get either his version of a deal or a

Sniffing out criminals SCIENTISTS from the University of Almeria and University College London have developed a technique for extracting traces of aromas present in fabrics. The method for isolating and extracting the ‘print’ of a fragrance from perfume or a personal hygiene product could be a useful tool as part of forensic investigations in cases where there has been contact between individuals, like sexual assault, according to the article ‘Fragrance transfer between fabrics for forensic reconstruction applications’ published in Science and Justice. The process involves extracting a sample and concentrating the volatile substances, that is those which evaporate in room temperature and give off a smell. Each substance is then separated out and the investigators analyse the chemical structure of the different compounds, the amount, and check to see if any coincide. To validate the procedure the scientists focused on the most common chemicals found in the

THE WEEK IN POLITICS SPANISH lawmakers met in the Congress of Deputies this week to vote on whether to allow acting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez to formally take office. The investiture process, which began on Monday with debates between party leaders and other Congress deputies, was preceded by talks between Sanchez’s left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) and the leftist Podemos. The parties were deadlocked over the earlier refusal of Sanchez to appoint Podemos figures to his government. Sanchez later relented saying he could appoint some lower ranking Podemos figures if Iglesias stood aside, which he indicated he would do on Friday. Sanchez hoped to close a deal by Monday before the investiture sessions but failed to do so. Podemos accused PSOE of only offering its lawmakers ‘symbolic’ positions without any authority and said no talks were held on Monday. Sanchez therefore entered

VOTE: Lawmakers debated whether to invest Sanchez this week. the investiture debate without certain backing from Podemos. He needed their votes and those of a handful of smaller, regionalist parties to survive the first vote on Tuesday. Congressional rules state candidates for prime minister must secure an absolute majority to win in the first vote. Failing that a second vote is held where just a simple majority is needed.
Sanchez told lawmakers on Monday that dialogue was needed to resolve some of Spain’s burning political issues, including the ongoing Catalan independence question. He accused the conservative Partido Popular (PP), the centrist Ciudadanos and the farright Vox of providing fertile ground for pro-independence groups with their hard-line and confrontational rhetoric on the
issue. The stance was motivated by political strategy as much as principles. Pro-independence lawmakers are among those who could help Sanchez win the investiture vote, despite them signalling they would not support him. The PP, Ciudadanos and Vox all said they would vote against Sanchez. PP leader Pablo Casado said his party was obliged to oppose Sanchez because of its position as the leading opposition party in the Congress of Deputies. He also accused Sanchez of siding with pro-independence groups at the expense of Spain. Ciudadanos leader Albert Rivera said his party would oppose Sanchez because his plans for his time in office posed a ‘danger’ to the country. (This article was written prior to the vote.

Rallying cry THE centrist Ciudadanos’ candidate for Barcelona mayor has called for regional and far-right nationalism to be fought in equal measure as his party’s identity crisis rumbles on. Manuel Valls told Spanish media his decision to break ranks with Ciudadanos and back incumbent Mayor Ada Colau represented the ‘first great defeat’ of Catalan nationalism. Despite Colau’s remaining in office being seen as a victory for Valls, he appeared more pessimistic when it came to his party’s dealings with the far-right Vox. He called on his party to take the fight to Vox. “Those who have fought against nationalism in Cataluña should fight with the same force against Vox’s nationalism. They are both political adversaries,” Valls said. It comes as ruptures have developed in Ciudadanos over local and regional branches joining with the far-right party to get into power. Leader Albert Rivera has thrown the party’s lot in with others to the right of it. This led Ciudadanos, Vox and the conservative Partido Popular (PP) to be seen as a three-pronged rightist front which could take power by banding together. But the strategy has alienated those on Ciudadanos’ liberal and progressive wing such as Valls.

Ex rushes to old flame’s defence FIVE people were arrested after kicking and pushing Guardia Civil officers during the fiestas in Muxia (La Coruña). Four members of the same family, plus the ex-partner of one of them, were charged with disobeying and threatening the authorities and causing bodily harm. Five officers in two Guardia Civil patrol cars and an un-
marked vehicle were sent to Muxia after receiving a report that a man was causing a disturbance at an open-air dance. The officers identified him immediately, but as they handcuffed him someone allegedly shouted, ‘Let’s get them!’ According to Guardia Civil sources later, ‘a tumult’ threw themselves at the officers, kicking and shoving them.
The ringleaders were the father, brother and cousin of the arrested man, together with his former partner. Although she came to his defence, witnesses later revealed that the original disturbance arose from his jealous reaction to seeing her at the dance. Three of the four Guardia Civil officers were injured during the brawl, one of whom needed surgery at A and E.

GENERAL GÁLVEZ: Unveiling the new statue in Washington.
A Spanish hero recognised By John Smith THE Spanish involvement in the American War of Independence is not often considered, although one Spaniard in particular played an important role. General Bernardo de Gálvez (after whom Galveston in Texas is named) served as the Governor of Louisiana in the 18th century whilst that ‘state’ was ruled by the Spanish. When the War of Independence started, he
joined in on the Colonists side supplying arms, ammunition and several thousand men to attack the British positions in the area as well as laying siege on Pensacola in Florida. Granted posthumous American citizenship, the General is considered to be a hero of the revolution and a statue of him has recently been unveiled outside of the Spanish Embassy in Washington. It has not been reported whether the former British Ambassador to the USA Sir Kim Darroch was invited to this event.
Brit arrested over alleged rape in resort of Magaluf A BRITISH man has been arrested on suspicion of rape in the popular party resort of Magaluf. The alleged incident occurred at a hotel in the Punta Ballena area close to the party strip last Friday. According to local reports
the pair tried to return to the hotel where the woman was staying, but was turned away by reception. They then went back to the hostel where the man was staying and he reportedly forced her to have sex. The suspect was arrested shortly after the woman made
a police report. Details of the case are still scarce at the moment and both parties and the hotels involved have not yet been named by police. This latest report comes after a spate of attacks and violence in the Mallorcan party capital.

Drowning tragedies in Spain F O RT Y O N E p e o p l e in Spain have drowned in the first two weeks of July. This is 14 per cent more than in the same period of 2018, according to the Royal Spanish Rescue and Lifeguards Federation. Of those 68 per cent were men, 73 per cent Spanish and 44 per cent perished while swimming off beaches. Some 76 per cent of deaths were in rivers, swimming pools and off beaches which had no lifeguard patrols.

AIRLIFTED: Firefighters took one victim to hospital.
Belgian baby dies in Costa Blanca road tragedy A BELGIAN baby aged one year was amongst three people to die, with three more seriously injured when two cars collided on the AP-7 at El Campello on Spain’s Costa Blanca. The cars, one Dutch and one Belgian, collided at kilometre 674 of the AP-7, just where the road forks to continue along the Alicante ring road or to take the A-70, one kilometre before the toll. One of the victims was a 61-year-old Dutchman, while another was the baby. The third victim has not been identified as they were not carrying ID documents. Emergency services were alerted at 3.10pm on Sunday, July 22. Two SAMU ambulances, a Basic Life Support vehicle and an air ambu-
lance were sent to the scene, as well as Guardia Civil. Five teams of firefighters were also sent plus two fire department helicopters, one of which evacuated one of the injured people. Two of the injured, both with multiple injuries, were transferred to the General Hospital of Alicante. The third also with multiple injuries was taken to the Hospital de Sant Joan d’Alacant. The road was closed in the direction of Alicante for three hours as rescue work was carried out and medics attended to the victims. Guardia Civil are investigating the cause of the accident.

Marriage of inconvenience A 42-YEAR-OLD Slovakian woman was allegedly held captive in Cataluña by a Pakistani who planned to marry her and obtain EU citizenship. She had met the man of 32 in Slovakia and, since both were coming to work in Spain, they decided to travel together. On arriving in Tortosa (Tarragona) her travelling companion revealed his marriage plans which the woman rejected. He kept her locked up in their apartment, threatening to kill her if she tried to ask for help. Desperate after more than 20 days of captivity, the woman rang the police in Slovakia
and told them that she was being held against her will in Spain. She had no idea of where she was being held but said that she could see a redcoloured bridge above a river and had found a piece of paper in the apartment giving a Tortosa address. The Slovakian police informed Europol which in turn contacted Cataluña’s Mossos d’Esquadra who were able to locate the apartment and free the woman. Her would-be suitor was arrested and later released after being charged with illegal detention.

FRUIT reaching Spanish tables this summer flouts legal requirements. The Union of Small Growers and Farmers (UPA) claimed that as the annual campaign reaches its peak, so does imbalance between production and distribution that is responsible for the low prices paid in origin. Middlemen are ignoring Spain’s Food Chain Law which requires a
Something rotten in the fruit sector written sales contract for each step of the route between producer, middleman and retailer. Few contracts are signed, UPA maintains, and when they exist they do not protect growers because conditions are imposed by the packag-

they are in the hands of certain intermediaries or initial buyers who take and distribute their produce, paying growers after balancing their own books. “They never lose, said UPA’s secretary general, Lorenzo Ramos.

Dog breeder arrested GUARDIA CIVIL have arrested a dog breeder accused of animal abuse. They say that 28-year-old DOU failed to care for several dogs properly. Officers had carried out an inspection to make sure that the farm in Burgos complied with sanitary and animal welfare conditions. Regulations checked included vaccination, microchip implants and possession of potentially dangerous breeds. They found overcrowded and dirty conditions including piles of old food on the floor and a plague of parasites that compromised the health of many of the animals.
Kennels were constructed with metal mesh which were a choking hazard and lacked adequate protection against rain and sun leaving them exposed to extreme temperatures. Inspectors found 97 adult dogs and 50 puppies, the majority very thin and dehydrated, and several with untreated injuries. Four dogs were taken from the breeder for urgent diagnosis and treatment by a veterinary clinic. Police have now asked the courts to have the remaining dogs removed from DOU and for his banning from any trade or commerce related to animals and the revocation of his licence. Credit: Guardia Civil

Would-be murderer dies in hospital A 32-YEAR-OLD man who tried to kill his ex-partner and mother-in-law died in Denia hospital after swallowing hydrochloric acid. The couple, both Romanian,

Depopulation ‘spreading’ A DECLINE in populations is no longer confined to small rural Spanish towns and is spreading to some cities, according to a new demographic study. The Autonomous University of Barcelona’s report found about 776,000 young people aged between 25 and 39 migrated from their home regions from 2013 to 2017. Castilla y Leon was the region which lost the largest proportion of its young university-educated population. More than 38 per cent of those born there left for other parts of Spain, according to the study. Research showed depopulation was beginning to affect provincial capitals, not just rural areas. The study found Madrid took the largest share of migrating young people. A total of 28.8 per cent of graduates aged between 25 and 39 living there were born outside of the capital.
He entered his former partner’s apartment while she was out with her family, hiding for several hours and confronting her when she returned and went to bed. As her ex tried to stab her, the 26-year-old woman warded off most of the blows with her arms but her mother, who went to her defence, was stabbed only millimetres away from her heart. The two women were admitted to hospital for attention to their cuts and injuries, none of which initially appeared to be serious, including the potentially fatal stab wound so near the mother’s heart. The attacker fled but was found by Denia’s National Police in his own home where he had drunk hydrochloric acid, which is easily purchased anywhere in Spain as salfuman drain cleaner. He was taken under guard to hospital where he died several hours later.

Researchers unearth medieval ‘newsletters’
‘LOST WORLD’: One document reported on the Spanish Armada. IRISH researchers have discovered around 200 centuriesold manuscripts, many from Spain, which come from the ‘birth’ of the global news industry. Academics from University College Cork (UCC) working in the Medici family’s archives in Florence said the documents revealed an information network stretching across medieval and ear-
ly modern Europe. Bredan Dooley, Professor of Renaissance Studies at UCC, said the network was ‘lucrative and powerful.’ “This is a discovery at the very birth of what is today’s global news industry,” Dooley said. One document which originated in Venice spoke of the Spanish Armada setting sail in 1588.
“It was heard from Lisbon that the Armada was ready with 140 or more sailing ships,” the document stated. Another newsletter from Spain reported on large numbers of Irish immigrants arriving in Galicia to flee antiCatholic persecution. Dooley said he and his collegues aimed to reconstruct the ‘fascinating’ news environment of a ‘lost world.’

What to do in the event of an emergency in Spain LIVING in Spain can bring with it an array of issues which may not have been encountered when living in the UK. There are lots of things to consider, and we are here to help try to make the transition and life in Spain a little easier by compiling a series of helpful facts and figures relating to a variety of topics. HERE in Spain there is a general number for all emergencies, 112. No area code is needed and the number can be called from any phone, including mobiles without a Spanish SIM card. The responders speak a number of languages, and you can also fax or SMS 112. In addition, there are individual emergency numbers, depending on the type of assistance you need. It’s a good idea to keep a printout of them handy, in your bag or wallet, in the home and in the car. And it can’t hurt to have a few helpful Spanish medical/emergency terms written down, just in case you don’t get an English-speaking member of staff. National Police, also known as National Police Corps (Cuerpo Nacional de Policia, CNP), deals with criminal offences and public order in towns and cities, and can be contacted by calling 091 or 902 102 112. The latter was set up for non-Spanish to report burglaries, car theft or a break-in when documents and belongings are lost or stolen. Available in English from 9am to 2pm, all week long, the service is also available in French, German and Italian. Once the telephone report is made,
claimants have 48 hours to check and sign their statement at the police station of their choice. In the case of robbery, where threat or force has been used, victims should call 091 at the time, then go directly to a police station to make a report. The Guardia Civil is a military force which operates mostly in rural areas and is responsible for drug offences, fatal car accidents, robberies and murders, and can be contacted on 062. Local Police (Policia municipal) cover their local town or city area for traffic offences and control, lost property and crimes such as theft and neighbourhood disputes. You can reach them on 092. And a special helpine, 016, has been set up specifically to report instances of gender violence. For an ambulance (ambulancia) and health emergencies, call 061 or 112, and in the case of a fire call the fire brigade (cuerpo de bomberos) on 061 or 112. For problems at sea, the Maritime Rescue Service (Salvamento Seguridad Maritmo) can be contacted by calling 900 202 202, and the Red Cross (Cruz Rojo) on 902 222 292. There is also a Red Cross 24- hour helpline 900 100 333.

Take care - use a condom PEOPLE are being urged to remember to use a condom during casual sex encounters following a surge in syphilis cases across Europe. Last month the World Health Organisation revealed that about one million people a day catch a sexually transmitted disease, and earlier this month Durex chose Spain to launch a new global campaign warning of the dangers of STIs (sexually transmitted infections). Called ‘Unforgettable Nights’ it launched in Spain because of an increase in STIs here. In the case of syphilis, for the first time since the 2000s new cases of the STI are more frequent than diagnoses of HIV in some countries. According to a report from the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) new cases of syphilis have risen 70 per cent since 2010. The increase has been driven by more unprotected sex and general-
ly riskier sexual behaviour. More opportunity for casual sex may also be to blame. Susana Ramón, is a microbiological doctor. Speaking to Diario de Mallorca she said: “There is a reemergence of sexually transmitted diseases in developed countries. They have to be taken seriously because the consequences if they are not diagnosed in time are serious. “Experts agree that there has been a relaxation in prevention, the use of condoms, since the fear of HIV has been lost.” Overall, more than 260,000 confirmed syphilis cases were reported from 30 EU/EEA countries between 2007 and 2017. Andrew Amato-Gauci, an ECDC expert on sexually transmitted infections said: “There is a clear relationship between sexual risk behaviour and the risk of syphilis and other sexually transmitted diseases.
He said: “To reverse this trend, we need to encourage people to use condoms consistently with new and casual partners. Regular tests for syphilis and other sexually transmitted infections should also be part of the parcel, especially if there has been a risk of infection.” The most significant aspect is sexual behaviour rather than orientation and the practising of safe sex. People should be careful to always use a condom. In tourism destinations like Spain, the danger of ‘holiday romances’ is that people are more relaxed and less likely to take as much care than at home. And the prevalence of ‘clubs’ which are attractive for some groups of men on stag parties or sports trips to Spain makes it even more important for men to take extra care. The use of prostitutes is a high risk activity, where ‘clients’ should always take precautions and use condoms.
EXOTIC: But do not pose a danger to human life.
Tarantula farm found in Spain POLICE have found 400 tarantula spiders in a flat in Xilxes, Castellon. The creatures found are poisonous but do not pose a danger to human life. Officers of Seprona de Burriana found the spiders, belonging to 49 different species of tarantula, as part of an operation against the breeding and trade of exotic species. A man has been reported for breeding and keeping the tarantulas without a licence and for not having the compulsory insurance for the possession of potentially dangerous animals.

GOING SOLO: The Méndez Núñez has left the US carrier combat group.
Spain snubs US By Dilip Kuner THE US Department of Defence has said it is disappointed by the Spanish government’s decision to permanently withdraw a frigate that had been supporting a US carrier group. The Méndez Núñez joined the combat group of the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, deployed since May in the Persian Gulf, with much fanfare.
The Spanish Defence Ministry confirmed this week the ship will continue on a solo round-the-world voyage. Initially, the agreement between the two governments meant that the Spanish ship would accompany the USS Abraham Lincoln on a global journey. However, Washington decided to alter its initial mission by ordering its fleet to bring forward its arrival in the Persian
Gulf in order to send “a clear and unequivocal message to the Iranian regime,” White House National Security Advisor John Bolton explained at the time. Spain’s acting Defence Minister, Margarita Robles, said on June 27 the technical agreement with Washington had been fulfilled and stressed the ministry had not contemplated the frigate “going with the combat group to a conflict zone in the Gulf.”

BAN SUPPORT: Opposition to trophies from hunting is widespread.
Support for trophy hunting ban ALMOST two thirds of the British public support a ban on trophy hunting, according to a new survey. The Survation poll found 63 per cent of respondents wanted the sport to be banned. Around three quarters supported blocking the imports of animal body parts from hunting to Britain, the same poll reported in the Daily Mirror found. It comes as the Born Free animal rights charity said about 2,500 trophies were shipped to Britain from 2008 to 2017.
Born Free’s head of policy Mark Jones said: “Trophy hunting is a cruel and damaging relic of a colonial era that causes immense animal suffering and disrupts wildlife.” Among the body parts imported were ones from 560 African elephants, more than 300 hippopotamuses and 265 American black bears. There were also almost 100 Nile crocodile parts and 80 from African lions, according to the charity. Environment Secretary Michael Gove said he would not hesitate to act if there was a case for a ban and called for evidence to be presented.

Travel plans in chaos as British Airways’ pilots strike in August HUNDREDS of thousands of holidaymakers potentially face large scale disruptions to their travel plans as British Airways’ pilots have unanimously voted to go ahead with planned strike action this August. Some 93 per cent of pilots represented in British Airways’ pilot union BALPA voted in favour of the strike over pay, despite the airline’s attempts to avert the action. BA met with union leaders and proposed a pay increase of 11.5 per cent which they maintain is a fair and reasonable amount. However BAPLA refused the offer and voted to go ahead with the strike. A statement by the union’s general secretary, Brian Strutton, justified the union’s refusal to accept the offer and insisted the ball is now firmly in BA’s court. “Settlement of this dispute is in
BA’s hands. We do not wish to inconvenience our customers, which is why we have tried to resolve this matter through negotiation started last November. It is BA who has regrettably chosen to drag this out into the summer months,” said Sutton. BA put out a statement on their website condemning the strike action, saying they are “very disappointed that BALPA has chosen to threaten the travel plans of thousands of our customers over the summer holidays, with possible strike action.” So far dates have not been confirmed for the strikes and BA insists that their customers do not panic and cancel flights. Measures are currently being put in place to limit the disruption of the walkout with low turnout, long haul flights being the first to be cancelled.

Jamie Oliver’s restaurant collapse THE eye-watering figures of celebrity chef Jamie Oliver’s ‘Jamie’s Italian’ restaurant chain have been revealed. The closure of 22 out of the 23 Italian restaurants has left the chef with losses of around £25 million. In May this year, the company announced that it will

account company, Jamie Oliver Holdings, to inject into the business. These personal investments were bolstered by creditors including HSBC who reportedly put forward a staggering £39.4 million in secured loans. He has currently paid the UK bank back a total of £4.7
million and has made assurances for the remaining balance. Jamie will now be focusing on his new chain of healthy deli takeaways situated in international airports around the world, the latest of which opened in Malaga airport this year.

New laws but little progress
Community Law Corner By José Luis Navarro Solicitor for Intercala Administration
joseluis@intercala.com www.intercala.com
with Pete Woodall, Woody’s Los Boliches
THE situation regarding short term tourist accommodation is probably more confusing now than it was before the recent approval of Royal Decree 7/2019. Part of the decree allows communities to prevent
domestic properties being used for tourist accommodation and to increase community fees for those that already are. Unfortunately the decree was a little vague on the finer points and since its ratification and inclusion into Spanish law there seems to have arisen just as many different interpretations as there are legal professionals. Understandably this is creating difficulties and confusion for both owners and communities but one point is clear, the new law should only affect properties being used as ‘tourist accommodation’ not normal rentals between owners, clients and tenants. The decree essentially only refers to properties being used as tourist accommodation as classified in another Junta de Andalucía Decree, 28/2016 article 3, concerning property promoted or advertised specifically as accommodation for tourists through websites, by travel agents or TV travel channels etc.
Accommodation similar to a hotel or a guest house offering ‘Bed and Breakfast,’ airbnb online or Homeaway and so on. Where reservations and bookings etc can be made in advance. Even if a rental is for only one day, owners who attract clients by other means, should not basically be affected. Spanish hotels and guest houses etc are regulated and must abide by quite strict codes and conditions. In short, the new decree seeks to create a level playing field for all by bringing similar conditions to the so-called ‘tourist apartments.’ If an owner promotes a property but fails to register it with the Junta de Andalucía as tourist accommodation and abide by their quite specific rules, they can expect to be heavily fined. The decree allows communities to increase the community fees for ‘tourist apartments’ by up to 20 per cent. It also seems to allow communi-
ties to completely prohibit ‘tourist apartments.’ Both these points are argued as unfair and illegal by many legal professionals who contend communities cannot ban such use nor impose the new conditions and limitations on others. If so, the communities who have already approved these steps may have to turn tail and rescind their decisions. Others say the law only applies to those owners who voted in favour of the limitations and not to owners who opposed them and others, the limitations cannot be applied to tourist properties already registered with the Junta de Andalucia, but then what about those ‘tourist apartments’ that are in ‘tramite,’ where an application has been lodged but not yet approved. The same with the increase in community fees. Where and when can an increase be applied and if so by how much, 5 per cent, 10 per cent for occasional rentals or up to
the full 20 per cent for the more popular and busier accommodation? Can it be applied retrospectively to accommodation already registered with the Junta or just to new additions? Again and more often than not especially where money is concerned, we have 10 lawyers with 11 opinions and quite rightly so, the law is considered by many to be unclear, inadequate and open to any ‘flexible’ interpretation as best suits their client. On one side, we have owners trying to run their legitimate businesses in a tourist area and on the other, owners trying to live a quiet domestic life in a residential area. In the meantime things stand still, awaiting a final decision or at least some clarification from the Court of Justice. As usual we the solicitors for Intercala Administration, advise our readers to seek competent advice in all matters regarding the law, especially this one.

“There is expected to be a high risk of fires this summer due to high temperatures, winds and the
drying of vegetation. “Citizen collaboration is very important. Make sure to clear areas of vegetation near homes to stop fires from spreading. “Do not pour vegetation or cut grass outside garden fences as these can accumulate and dry out, becoming fuel which can easily spread fire,” Bañasco said. It comes as a fire broke out in the Arroyo Cazalla area on Sunday, the latest in several blazes since the Junta de Andalucia’s public fire ban came into force on Saturday June 1. One of them took place in El Higueron between Benalmadena, Fuengirola and Mijas leaving a nearby hillside scorched.
Flamenco festival BENALMADENA’S council has unveiled details about the town’s 19th annual Flamenco Festival which takes place this Saturday. The festival is set to begin at the Los Nadales fairground in Benalmadena Pueblo at around 10pm. Singer Jose Valencia and guitarist Juan Requena are among the artists due to perform, according to Benalmadena Council. Council culture spokesperson Elena Galan said locals and visitors would be able to enjoy a night of flamenco ‘in style’ at the festival. “We are responding to the interest in Benalmadena for flamenco, a popular hobby that leads us to continue to strive to improve on previous editions,” Galan said. Carmelo Montero, a director of Peña Flamenca La Repompa which helped to organise the event, said the group was happy the festival is back on after several years of absence.
Swimming champion THE mayor of Benalmadena has met with a local swimmer after he took home four medals from a regional contest. Vi c t o r N a v a s m e t w i t h Mario Montes Gonzalez
and his family after he recently competed in the Andalucian Swimming Championship in Linares, Jaen Province. The swimmer was a fraction of a second away
from setting a new regional record in the eight and nine-year-old category. Navas said Montes Gonzalez had made Benalmadena ‘tremendously proud.’ “Athletes with the talent and dedication of Mario bear the name of our town every time they compete elsewhere,” the mayor said. “In Benalmadena the practice and promotion of sports fosters these excellent results so our young athletes can compete at this great level,” Navas added. Montes Gonzalez said he won the medals thanks to ‘ e ff o r t a n d c o m m i t m e n t ’ including training for two hours a day from Monday to Saturday. The athlete won gold medals in the 200-metre freestyle race and 100-met r e b u t t e r f l y, t h e s i l v e r medal in the 100-metre freestyle and bronze in the 8x50 provincial relay.

MARBELLA continues to be a magnet for film companies according to the council’s tourism department which has announced that more than 40 different licences for filming have been granted so far this year. Working alongside Andalucia Film Commission network and European Film Commissions Network it is the department responsible for attracting film companies and assisting in finding locations and managing the procedures involved in the shoots. Companies from as far away as
Japan and the USA as well as much of Europe have worked in the city filming a number of advertisements, movies, TV programmes, music videos and magazine photo shoots. The British shows ‘A Place in the Sun’ and ‘Katie Price My Crazy Life’ have been here in the first half of the year. The tourism department welcomes such visits, as not only do the films themselves help to promote Marbella, but it is estimated that some 30 per cent of the total budget for filming is spent in the chosen location.

Sad death of a whale AFTER a large pod of whales was spotted and filmed off the coast of Denia, it would appear that they travelled south, but then tragedy struck off the coast of Marbella. L a s t F r i d a y, a s i n g l e large whale, was killed when hit by a boat’s propeller and it was decided to bring the body of the dead whale into the fishing port in the city by the local Health Department and Civil Protection unit in order for it to be removed from the sea. Once out of the water the body was transferred so that fishery experts could discover whether it was ill and therefore was unable to avoid the vessel or if it was simply unfortunate and suffered a killing stroke from the propeller.

AFTER my last article regarding the colour of fruits and vegetables and why we should eat all of them, it is time to talk about my favourite colour red. Fruits and vegetables with red colour delay ageing. They have a low calorie content and a lot of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. They boost the immune system and help to lose weight. The red colour in fruits and vegetables is indicative of the existence of phytochemicals. They minimise the risk of prostate cancer, lower cholesterol levels and help the heart to work by regulating blood pressure. Recent studies of the effects of phytochemicals have shown that they even manage to suppress the growth of tumours. Another useful feature is that

Tomatoes and watermelons are rich in lycopene - a substance that is beneficial to the eye, but also helps the normal functioning of the prostate.

The juice made from cranberries is also used by natural medicine as a means of fighting infections, clearing the urinary tract from harmful bacteria and regulating cholesterol.

bone density, skin elasticity, and hair health. Last but not least, they regulate blood sugar levels and are also rich in fibre, potassium, folic acid and vitamin K. Red cherries have a high content of melatonin that improves sleep, prevents memory loss, reduces inflammation, and reduces the risk of cancer and diabetes. Raspberries are a natural remedy for pain reduction. Red peppers can be considered a natural remedy against stress. They have a high content of vitamin A and B6, and also improve mood and sleep. Red beet cleanses the colon and should be added to every detox diet, they even prevent atherosclerosis by maintaining the blood vessels’ tone.
FACT: If Triple A has to close its doors, 1,000 dogs a year could die! THE finances of Marbella’s only home for abandoned cats and dogs are in such dire straits that it may have to close its doors to new animals, although it will continue to look after those already in its care. Money is bleeding out of the charity, not due to any mismanagement, but because the number of abandoned animals has increased dramatically this year and costs keep rising ahead of income. So worried are the Marbella Council that Mayor Ángeles Muñoz visited the charity accompanied by council experts to discuss possible assistance in improving the facilities. Lily Van Tongeren, one of the team of dedicated helpers, told EWN “We are not a bunch of do-gooders looking for a pat on the back, we are simply people who care not only for the animals, but for the community at large!” Imagine the 400 plus dogs and 300 plus cats it currently homes wandering the streets and suburbs of Marbella if they weren’t being cared for as they are now a nd c ons ide r how ma n y ani m al s t hat would become in a short period of time if they weren’t sterilised. The simple fact is that it costs €80,000 in the first six months to just cover food, veterinary care and some wages for those
who work on a full time basis for minimum wage. There has to be a full time night guard who is there to clear up mess, stop dogs that might be fighting, give medication to those who need it and amazingly to stop crooks from breaking in. Everything costs and this is one animal charity that has never closed its doors to a single stray up to now, nor does it put any heal t hy ani m al down but cont i nues t o feed, house and look after any cat or dog that has found its way to the centre. Volunteers are great, but they don’t have to turn up and although there are some really dedicated people who don’t mind cleaning the poo, feeding the animals, washing and taking them for a walk, it’s not a glamorous way of spending a day. Lily would love two things to happen immediately so that they don’t have to close their doors to new animals (up to 1,000 dogs a year) and that is: Mor e m oney ( you can gi ve a si m pl e standing order for €5 or €10 a month to save these lives).

Youth wages at 1990’s levels YOUNG workers without qualifications are now earning the same as their counterparts did in the 1990s and make less than a decade ago, according to the Bank of Spain. Spain’s central bank, which carried out a study on earnings during the past 30 years, said young unskilled workers experienced the biggest drop in income. The study focused on salary purchasing power, factoring in inflation.
Bank Governor Hernandez de Cos said each generation saw earnings rise up until the 2008 financial crisis, when wages for all began to drop. High unemployment, a fall in working hours and the rising costs of rent all contributed to the fall. The study also found the average Spanish worker was 13 per cent poorer due to the recession which began after the crisis.

Tax evasion list ruling SPAIN’S Constitutional Court has agreed to admit a list of suspected tax fraudsters as evidence in an evasion sentence appeal hearing. The Constitutional Court ruled the so-called Falciani list was legitimate evidence. It includes the names of some 13,000 people who allegedly stashed money in the Swiss subsidiary of British bank HSBC. The court ruling follows an appeal from engineering entrepreneur Sixto Delgado de la Coba after he was jailed for six years for stashing some €5.2 million in the bank. Delgado appealed the sentence claiming the use of the list violated his right to the presumption of innocence. The Constitutional Court’s ruling follows one from the Supreme Court which agreed to admit the list as evidence in February 2017 when it was probing tax evasion. More than 500 Spanish taxpayers were convicted after their names were found on the list and probed by the Tax Agency. Falciana came to Spain after stealing the list and the National court has twice turned down extradition requests from Switzerland.

Spending warning THE public spending watchdog of Spain has warned the city councils of Madrid, Cordoba and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria after their spending rose by more than 10 per cent. The Independent Authority of Fiscal Responsibility (AIREF) said the increases were well above those allowed by local and regional spending rules. Tenerife’s island council was also warned about its spending. AIREF has called for regional authorities to intervene and for the budgets to be revised, either by cutting spending or increasing taxes. The body has also recommended controls be placed on several councils which plan to increase spending by 8 per cent. These include Almonte, Jaen and Jerez de la Frontera. It also called for the Spanish Treasury to take action against the regional authorities of Madrid, Navarra and the Canary Islands because of the high growth in their unfunded spending. AIREF also singled out the regions of Aragon, Cantabria, Castilla-La Mancha, Cataluña, Extremadura, Murcia and Valencia for planning to spend above legal limits. City and regional spending rules state

Green light for buyout SPAIN’S National Securities and Market Commision (CNMV) watchdog has approved a bid from the Asset Management and Industrial Machinery (GAMI) holding company to take over General Machinery Rental (GAM) for €1.72 a share.
Deficit level
CONCERNS: Madrid Council was one of the authorities AIREF criticised for its spending plans. that expenditure can only rise in line with economic growth and that it must be properly financed. The call comes as AIREF delivered its assessment on the state of Spain’s public finances last week. The overall deficit of Spain’s regions, or autonomous communities, is expected to
be 0.5 per cent of economic output (gross domestic product, GDP) this year. it was originally forecast to be 0.1 per cent. This is in part due to the Spanish Treasury’s decision not to reimburse regional authorities for the recent installation of systems to provide VAT information to large companies.
THE Spanish government’s spending deficit is likely to be around 2 per cent of economic output (gross domestic product, GDP) by the end of this year, according to the Independent Authority of Fiscal Responsibility (AIREF).

What’s happened to values?
LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT FIRSTLY let me thank all of those who responded to my ‘What If’ Party manifesto last week. So many concurred with my views I almost (but not quite!) considered registering as a contender for number 10. (Yeah yeah!). What did surprise me was that for about the first time in my 30 years of column scribble, I actually received not one single missive of dissent. It probably shows how desperate we all are for a bit of common sense, which was basically all the piece was about. ‘Fraid it’s all a pipe dream though folks. A couple of recent events show that we are all still at the mercy of the lunatics, who are surely now firmly in charge of the asylum. Does anyone remember Roy Larner? Roy was one of the heroes of the London Bridge terrorist attack. When the incident took place, Roy, who was having a beer on the terrace of one of the bars, launched himself at one of the aggressors and received eight knife slashes and a painful stint in hospital for his brave efforts. Hailed by the public as the ‘lion of Millwall’ Roy was accredited with possibly having saved even further injuries or deaths occurring during the attack. Surely now was the time to present this man’s remarkable courage with some form of official recognition? Wrong. In a move that is almost beyond belief (although in this day and age, noth-
FOOTBALL CHANTS: Will the anti-terrorist brigade be forced to hit the football stands?
ing surprises me!) the authorities have decided to actually place Roy himself on the anti-terrorist watch list! Apparently, he cried out the name ‘Millwall,’ his favourite football team, as he launched into his counter attack; therefore they consider that he may now be the one who should be watched and even have to attend de- radicalisation classes. In the words of the great John McEnroe, surely they can’t be serious? Does this mean they are going to attempt to ‘deradicalise’ all the football fans that support the
clubs of the UK? Well good luck with that! Can you imagine how many of the anti-terrorist brigade it would take to arrest all the Liverpool fans chanting ‘Come on you Reds’ on a Saturday afternoon? Give us a break. For the sake of sanity, honour this brave man with the medal and recognition he deserves. What on Earth has happened to our values when we reward our heroes with persecution? Winston must be positively spinning! Sometimes I really do despair of it all. The second bit of time wasting,
brain numbing nonsense that emerged this week, was the usual suspects wingeing and whining that the choice of a black woman to play a white cat in the new film version of ‘Cats’ was racist! Is that pathetic or wot? I’ve actually discovered a new ploy. Whenever I hear one of these individuals call someone a racist, in my mind’s eye I substitute the meaning of the word to ‘patriot.’ The level of satisfaction is wonderful - and it makes far more sense.

Travelling with a medical condition? Christina Sharp GLOBELINK INTERNATIONAL christina@globelink.co.uk.
GOING abroad? Stay safe with our Travel Tips for travelling with a medical condition. Taking a trip when you have a medical condition can make the most courageous traveller nervous. But there’s no need to be anxious if you take some sensible precautions: Check with your Doctor: With some conditions, like cancer, heart, lung conditions; or if you undergo regular treatment; or have had recent surgery, it’s best to check with your doctor before you commit to booking a trip. You don’t want to risk an emergency mid-flight or mid-trip. According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention the most common in-flight medical events include respiratory, cardiac and neurologic events. That’s a statistic

your condition may require special attention or equipment during the flight, or be a potentially hazard to the safety of the aircraft or passengers. A letter is essential if you have any type of medical implant device too.
Carry medication and bring extra supplies. Whether it’s volcanoes erupting, severe weather, or your baggage going missing, we know that travel plans get disrupted. Keep your medication close-by in your handluggage and carry extra supplies as a precaution. Just in case carrying medication through airport security feels more like smuggling the crown jewels, keep a copy of your prescription, or doctor’s letter. Know how to get help if things go wrong - Including your Travel Insurance Emergency Medical Assistance Contacts. Throughout most of Europe the emergency number is 112.

Carry it clearly accessible and ideally visible. It’s critical if you are in an accident, or unconscious and can’t communicate. Buy Travel Insurance. Declare your medical condition - Travel Insurance is essential, but if you have an underlying medical issue its more important than ever. NEVER withhold details of a pre-existing condition, or this could invalidate your Insurance and cost you dearly in stress and unwanted medical expenses. Travel Insurance is inexpensive, easy to sort, and could be a life saver while abroad.

‘Powerful’ people of Marbella MARBELLA MOMENTS BY NICOLE KING I FIRST met María Pilar Rodriguez three or four years ago. We don’t coincide often, but we did hit if off instantly and we enjoy bumping into each other when our circuits meet. Such was the case last Friday to celebrate the first Powerful Women Gala at the Villa Padierna organised by Pilar. It was a resounding success and a great chance for me to find out more about a group that Pilar included me in when it started, but I had no idea the group had grown so large and that Pilar has achieved so much! At first the name of the group could be off-putting ‘Mujeres Poderosas’ which literally translates into Powerful Women: it sounds a tad ‘braggadocious,’ but perhaps a better interpretation would be capable women, which Pilar certainly is. She has embraced an international approach to networking the women in
Pilar and Miguel Luna of the Tourism Department.
her mainly Spanish world, all of who are accomplished and determined and when enthused, use this power of conviction to get things done. The gala was spectacular so once again a big chapó is in order. Over 100 people at a sit-down dinner where no one wanted to sit down but preferred to dance all night, the entertainment was that good. I also enjoyed seeing some of the most beautiful
dresses I’ve seen in a long time and chatting with people I’ve never met before; refreshing in itself. We can learn so much from each other, particularly when we leave our comfort zones and sit next to and talk to people from different backgrounds with different outlooks on life and on living here. Pilar also invited me to accompany her to a private performance by Juan de Juan as part of his promotional video to promote Marbella. A behind the scenes moment witnessing this flamenco dancer create and rehearse his upcoming shows, whilst also filming for the promotional video that will accompany him and our town hall to Japan and Russia to showcase Spanish flamenco and our city. Juan de Juan moved to Marbella four years ago and told me that he truly feels ‘the magic’ here and values the
quality of life. He is excited to be representing our municipality on the upcoming trips but equally so to be performing in Marbella and at Tivoli in August. Flamenco is always vibrant, but Juan de Juan’s performance was exciting, violent, passionate and sensual and together with the other members of his ‘backing group’ quite a treat for the senses. This ‘bailaor’ was awarded the Latin Gold Award for Best Dancer in 2017 and is certainly making his way to be recognised alongside other great national heroes of dance such as Antonio Canales, with whom he started to dance at the age of 16. Today he’s using his power, his influence, to promote Spain and Marbella, Pilar is using her’s to unite women to help each other achieve similar goals: both ‘powerful’ people. ☺ www.rtvmarbellanow.com www.nicoleking.es www.zerohero.es @marbellanow #bettertogether #livingourbestlife

DEAR Ed Aren’t guests from home horrible? We recently had some who came to us, knowing we had dogs, then moaned for the week that they didn’t like dogs and shoo’ing ours away. We had another couple who would make themselves three of four cups of tea in our kitchen, every morning and wouldn’t even offer to make us one. Another just left the air-conditioning on for the week, and in return for his free holiday bought us a menu del dia for the princely sum of €8.50 each. Big deal. Then we had other guests whose dietary requirements left our kitchen smelling like a greasy spoon, all they wanted were good old fashioned fryups and then they complained that they only liked back bacon, as we only had streaky! If you see a tourist at the airport, walking funny with a bit of streaky bacon hanging from the rear of his shorts, please tell him he left his sunglasses by my pool. D Clarke
What if manifesto Dear Leapy Lee We love reading your pieces but this was utterly brilliant... we want to join (Issue 1776). Will you be Prime Minister please? There was not one little iota of dissent from us. Power to your elbow. We love No 27 too... it’s all got out of hand... and we are too afraid to complain in case we say something to ‘upset’ someone with whom we disagree. Power to the people!!! Sincerely, June and Roger Davis (MBE) 83 and 85 respectively. We remember it before the present mess! June and Roger David
Airing views Hi Leapy I read your column every week and 99 per cent of the time agree with you. This week (Issue 1776) you have surpassed yourself. What I want to know is ‘Why aren’t you up for Prime Minister?’ As far as the population is concerned you would have a huge majority. Don’t stop airing your views. It’s what sooo many think. Name and address supplied

Not very welcome DEAR Editor Last year, I stayed on holiday in the beach area of Oliva. Lovely apartment, nice beach, great food etc. But I do not speak Spanish and I never read a newspaper on holiday, so I was in blissful ignorance of what was going on that weekend, I was there. I got up early as I could not sleep in the high temperatures and decided to go for a tranquil stroll on the beach. Imagine my surprise to witness a scene, worthy of ‘The Game of Thrones,’ with boatloads of weirdly dressed warriors invading the beach, to accompanying gun-
Beach warriors
BEACH INVASION: Full of warlike cries! fire, fireworks and warlike cries! My wife never believed me, accused me of hallucinating and insisted I stopped eating mushrooms late at night.
HAVE YOUR SAY
I then found out it was The Moors and Christians - I should have picked up a copy of your newspaper!
BRITAIN and Spain are going through some of the biggest political changes in recent months. Britain got a new prime minister this week just over three years after Theresa May took over from David Cameron. Meanwhile here in Spain, acting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez’s future was by no means secure as he faced lawmakers in the investiture vote which began with debates on Monday. Changes at the top in both countries come on the back of years of political upheaval, uncertainty and impasse. Brexit has swept away all other issues to become the certain and at many times sole political issue confronting Westminster. But considerable opposition to Britain’s departure from the EU and a delicate parliamentary situation has meant a solution has eluded lawmakers since the referendum in 2016. Numbers in Spain’s Congress of Deputies leaves Sanchez and his left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) in a similar predicament. Despite winning almost double the seats of their rival the conservative Partido Popular (PP) in April, PSOE still fell well short of a majority. Those results produced the protracted coalition talks with the leftist Podemos and this week’s uncertain investiture vote. Uncertain times make for interesting news. But while we focus on what happens in the corridors of power, we cannot forget their impact on ordinary people, including expatriates. We hope that whatever the future holds London and Madrid will continue to look out for the interests of expatriates.
Now we want to hear your views. YOUR PAPER - YOUR VOICE - YOUR OPINION www.euroweeklynews.com

Man found wearing ‘stolen’ Rolex Many years ago I had friends who ‘lost’ something every time they went on holiday - watch, camera, Burberry overcoat etc. They weren’t even poor, they thought it was a good way to get a yearly update. Jenny Dodd And they certainly weren’t ashamed. People got away with more then, 20 years or more ago. Wonder if he’ll do time? Robert Mitchell
They should have had their medals without having to ask for them, they are heroes. Xx Gill Reynolds
Court orders to give divers medals
Unskilled wages down to 20 year low
Cave diving is dangerous, so rescuing from a cave is exceptionally so. Of course they should be decorated for their bravery. Jimbo Dikes
COMMENTS FROM EWN ONLINE
Very expensive to hire someone, add at least 50 per cent on top of the net amount the employee receives in wages and you have an idea of the cost of hiring someone. The governments and politicians in general need to look
at ways of putting people back to work and helping young children find their first job. Giovanni Messina Very hard for youngsters to get legal employment here and even worse for expats who don’t speak the language. Don’t think Spain has the right balance, it costs too much to hire people and very expensive to work for yourself. Gill Reynolds
Jamie Oliver’s restaurant collapse Having worked as an accountant in the resort hotel business for some time, I can say there are people who can cook the beans and people who can count the beans, those two personalities rarely overlap which is why so many restaurants go under. Erik Robinson

TIME OUT
YOUR STARS FOR NEXT 7 DAYS AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) You have a chance to give someone great delight, so why not go ahead? Your insecure side tells you that it is too good to be true and there must be a catch. Why should there be? This is a situation that you may relax into as only you know how.
PISCES (February 20 - March 20) Don't look for spooks in the closet when there are none. Not only does it look silly but it wastes good time. Basing your actions on past disappointments can only lead to more of the same. Show confidence in others and they will show it in you. Sometimes, your patience wears thin but it is in your best interests to remain calm.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20) Is someone that you are closely involved with trying to drive a hard bargain? Are you surprised at the amount of time and energy that they are throwing at it? It could be that they are more passionate about it than you realised.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) You have been learning about certain people very fast. Do you feel as though you are in the middle of a soap opera? With the summer sun high, it is possible that passions will fire up. Everything seems to revolve round one person and it is upsetting everything else.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) This is your week to sparkle and show how clever you are. Why be modest? Let others know what you are capable of; your talents will come out sooner or later. Don't be embarrassed when paid a compliment, for it is richly deserved. You have put on a jolly good show of late and it is now time to listen to the applause.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) Something that you had set your heart on, although still coming, is terribly slow. This is not a time to be a pessimist. Please don't, however, allow your tendency to put all your eggs in one basket trip you up. It is not necessary to go about things the way that you normally do.
‘Greetings cards featuring artwork by AudreyQ are available at P.C. Highway, Javea with profits going to Aspadis, a Valencian charity for severely handicapped children.’
LEO (July 24 - August 23) You are moving on in an important area but do not burn bridges before you have others to cross. You will know why I mention this later in the week. You are able to influence others far more than you realise, but with your wish to keep things on an even keel you may be giving away too much. You need to keep a balance.
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) Is there a chance that you are burying your head in the sand? It is likely that something happening right in front of you is being overlooked or ignored. You are able to deal with this more easily than you think. Just take one step at a time and stick to your plan. Simply telling someone what to do instead of asking them to do it can work wonders.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) This is not a time to take anyone for granted. At this time of the year people tend to look at their situation and ask if they are getting enough out of it. Neglecting someone now could store up a lot of problems for the future. Avoid doing anything that could lead to you being blamed later.
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) Now is your chance to go straight for what you want. The shock of having this opportunity could cause you to hesitate. Do bear in mind, though, that he who hesitates is often lost. The temptation to keep something for yourself is not selfish but sensible.

SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) A big change means big chances, so don't let small things get you down. In the past six months you have come a long way. You are not back where you started. You are being given the chance to start again, but this time you have far more experience.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) Challenges that do not please you are inevitable. That does not mean that your attitude towards them could not change. Indeed, unless you want to continue to be upset, it must. Luckily, you have mostly had your own way recently.

The god offers to grant Casiopea whatever wish she desires on one condition. She must help him recover his throne from his treacherous brother. If she wins then her jazz dreams will come true, but if she fails she will disappear forever.

Forgive to heal JORIS PLU WE all have a need to heal who we are. It will make our life much easier to move on in a positive way. We know this. We feel this. Letting go of the negativity is something we all want. During our lifetime we have been hurt many times and we will be hurt again. You will begin to heal yourself when you let go of past hurts. Easier said than done you may answer now. But you can do this. Forgive those who have wronged you. Have compassion. But first of all learn to forgive yourself for your mistakes. Or better, for your lessons in life. Then it will be much easier to forgive others, to start the healing. To take the next wonderful step
into your future. You will find most - if not all - of the answers to how to forgive yourself within yourself. Life has already taught most of us the purpose of forgiving, the unique feeling that goes with it. Some say it is like a wonder happening to us. A great feeling of relief. Of letting go and feeling very good. You may be surprised how much you already know about this if you give yourself the chance to look deeper into who you are, why you do certain things, how you feel. Just take time to think about it. From the day we were born life has been teaching us thousands of things, it never stops. The school of life has no end date. And yes, that is wonderful. We can make mistakes, make some more, make them into lessons and move on. It is a natural process. So keep on learning. As long as we do not deliberately hurt others, humans and animals. That of
course is very important. Some points to consider when you want to forgive yourself and therefore heal your soul: * Remember that we are all learning life lessons - so do not be too hard on yourself - be gentle with who you are * If you feel you made a mistake, learn to accept it as a lesson - look at it and decide how you want to deal with it and move on * Make excuses if needed, in the first instance to yourself * Have patience, whatever age you are, we will be learning all the time * Even when you feel you made a mistake twice or even many more times, it is ok, it is your personal learning process * Know that every one of us needs to learn everything in life… so in a way… until you have learned something, you can not know ‘Heal your soul first, then the
healing of t h e m i n d and body will follow.’ Zhi Gang Sha ‘ F o rg i v e ness brings inner joy and and inner peace to all life.’ Zhi Gang Sha ‘Healing is an art. It takes time, practice and love.’ Once you have mastered the way of forgiveness, a new fantastic world will open for you and for everyone around you.

Reducing appearance of wrinkles naturally DELAYING wrinkles for as long as possible can simply be a matter of good habits. The basic recommendations include using appropriate protection from the sun, not smoking,
not drinking too much and never sleeping with make-up on. It is also important to moisturise and hydrate. Sleep plays a huge role towards the appearance of skin. Results show that those getting enough sleep had an average score of 2.2 and the poor sleepers had an average score of 4.4, with the higher score meaning the skin looked older. After five nights of poor sleep, participants had up to double the amount of fine lines and wrinkles and a lot more brown spots than those getting a good night’s rest. Getting more vitamin C may help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. A study of 4,000 women carried out in 2007 found that those who had higher intakes of vitamin C had lower levels of wrinkles and dryness. Another major source of skin problems is thought to be stress. In 2015, researchers examined 5,000 participants. Those experiencing high levels of stress had more itchy, scaly skin and rashes.

SO over the last few weeks I’ve talked about lower back pain and sciatica in particular. I’ve also been talking about those conditions that can sometimes get bundled up in a general ‘sciatica’ muddle like Iliotibial Band Syndrome (these articles are on our website and Facebook page if you missed them!). And today we are going to look at another one of those conditions that can cause similar symptoms Piriformis Syndrome. This may be the most common cause of sciatica-type back pain that you’ve never heard of. What is it? The piriformis muscle is a small muscle located deep in the buttock (behind the gluteus maximus). When muscles are relaxed and happy they lie smooth and flat with space between for all your body’s communication systems to pass through - blood, nerves, lym-

Piriformis Syndrome - a pain in the ass phatic etc. But when a muscle gets overworked or unhappy it clenches up, getting fatter and inflamed. This reduces the space between the muscles and the body’s communication highways are suddenly down to single lane traffic with a speed camera up. And guess which nerve passes right alongside the piriformis muscle? Yup, you guessed it - the sciatic nerve. Symptoms - the bottom line Unsurprisingly a common symptom is pain in and around the buttocks which then starts to ‘spread’ down the legs as the sciatic nerve becomes more irritated. Sitting can often make you more uncomfortable, as can walking or running while lying flat eases symptoms. Cyclists, equestrians and rowers

time (particularly in the car) can place unbalanced pressure on the spine and buttock muscles and eventually irritating the nerve. The solution is a ‘walletectomy.’ This means, take your wallet out of your back pocket and put it somewhere safer, like your front pocket. The beauty of preventative medicine! What to do? Get an accurate diagnosis! Piriformis syndrome can often be confused with hip problems or lower back problems as symptoms get muddied and it takes time and solid movement review to identify. Get the wrong diagnosis and you can spend a lot of time (and money!) on treatments that aren’t solving the problem. The primary goal of any treatment is to reduce the overworking piriformis muscle, get it to relax and reduce the pressure on the sciatic nerve. That can include exercises to strengthen other complimentary muscles, training review, stretching to improve mobility and looking at how you move in everyday life.

WE Brits have become much less trusting, haven’t we? When I did a straw poll among friends (only the finest of scientific and journalistic methods for this column, folks), the consensus was we’re seemingly living in an era of fake news, mistruths and conspiracy theorists. In Moscow, Riyadh and Washington, this is the age of the shameless lie. But is it surprising? With Donald Trump having reportedly told 10,000 fibs in office, how can you put your trust any more in anyone or anything? Let’s take a brief look at recent headlines. According to a Charities Aid Foundation study, the proportion of Brits who donate to charity has fallen for the third year to 57 per cent. UK charities are struggling to recover from a series of scandals: senior Oxfam aid workers paying survivors of the 2010 Haiti earthquake for sex, Save The Children covering up sexual harassment of staff by executives and a ‘toxic working culture’ at Amnesty International. And betrayal of trust is one of the hardest things any person or institution must face, so much harder to repair when lost or stolen than any material goods.
Charity begins at home... but shouldn’t end there! Charities struggling.
Best advice? Donate to a recognised charity with an excellent track record like the Costa del Sol’s Cudeca cancer charity to which profits from all my novels go, including the latest: ‘Betrayal.’ After 15 years in Canada, successful businessman Nick Lawrence returns home to the village where he was acquitted of a gruesome murder. But he is confronted with all the people of a past life who can’t and won’t forgive him - including his own family, his return dredging up long-forgotten memories and secrets. But his former girlfriend’s murder is only the first in several apparently unconnected crimes. Detective Inspector Barbara Forster heads the cold case investigation in this action-packed thriller about a young man trying
to unravel the mystery of a family tragedy - a quest with an unexpected and shocking revelation. In fact, even thinking about the novel is sending icy, blood-curdling shivers down my spine... Nurse, the screens please! That’s better, now I’m back on the meds. And bring that big syringe!

Do monthly tenants have rights? Some friends have been renting an apartment in Fuengirola for 17 years. They have always paid the rent correctly (in cash) and have receipts for all the payments. Now the owner tells them the rent deal has terminated, and that they have four months to move out. My friends have never had a written contract. The owner alleges that there has often been noise from their apartment, and that they already had been warned many times. My friends have never received a written complaint. What rights do they have? Are there special rules for long-term rentals? As the wife is very sick, moving to another place would be hard. M B (Costa del Sol) In the first place your friends do not have a YOU AND THE long-term contract. LAW IN SPAIN They rent from month to month and the owner can terminate this rental whenever he wants. Properly, he should give you written notice of his intent to terminate the rental, and he only needs to give notice of one month for this. So the notice of four months is actually generous.

Where are their brains? MIKE SENKER IN MY OPINION Views of a Grumpy Old Man IT’S the silly season and we know it’s important for Spain to have a strong tourist trade and, for many years before I moved here, I was someone who always came here for holidays with my family. What I’d like to know is what happens to some of these visitors the minute they land? They seem to ditch their brains and manners at the luggage reclaim. Why would you want to bring wine and beer bottles down to a swimming pool and proceed to drink from the bottle in the pool and then get all aggressive when asked not to? I mean is it unreasonable to point out if the glass gets broken in the pool nobody can use it? The list is endless. Staying on the terrace of your apartment ‘til 5am making so much noise that nobody can sleep. Getting home at 3am then clip clopping around in your shoes, (mostly ladies this one) and then deciding to rearrange every chair by dragging it across the floor. All I’m saying is be a bit
considerate and if something is said, just stop for a second and think about apologising instead of taking it as a challenge for a fight. We also have a couple of apartments we rent and some of the things our renters come up with are jaw dropping. One phoned this week at 11pm to tell us that the frying pan was too big and could we get them a smaller one because the big one took longer to cook things. Or how about the one that left the keys in the lock inside and wanted us to pay for a locksmith to let them back in and retrieve the keys. One of my favourites is the couple that called at 3am because the electric had tripped. As I recall, I wasn’t that polite to them. And, of course, the ones that, although they are told to lock up properly, don’t. They leave windows open when they go out. They don’t read all the information and advice they are given and then wonder why their passports, money and other valuables, left on view, get nicked by a crafty little thief that is just waiting for the usually very intelligent individual to get his holiday brain on and to forget everything he would normally do when leaving his own house. Happy holidays.

Simply Scandinavian - fresh, pure and tasty SCANDINAVIA is the most northern part of Europe and under the northern lights Nordic cuisine creates and inspires the joy of food, taste and variety but there’s also a strong focus on health and a philosophy of ethical production. Simply Scandinavian is a new exciting restaurant located in Los Boliches, Fuengirola and it is what the name says, a restaurant which offers fresh, pure and tasty food cooked using Scandinavian methods by Scandinavian chefs. They only use the best ingredients favouring local producers wherever possible, but of course some ingredients come directly from Scandinavia, especially reindeer according to Chef Mika Väätäinen. On the menu you’ll find fish prepared in many ways as Scandinavian specialities are often based on fish, because water is everywhere up in the north and the resulting catches are excellent. If you don’t live on the coast then there are literally thousands of lakes and ponds full of fresh fish.
It is sautéed reindeer with carrotpotato mash and lingonberries. Reindeer is also served as a sirloin steak with anis sauce, whilst a Danish open roast beef sandwich with horseradish is also worth trying. There is something for everyone in a Scandinavian kitchen so vegetarians are not forgotten. Berries and root vegetables are often used to top up the meal.

keen on wine and the fresh and pure food is particularly well served when paired with a good wine. Simply Scandinavian gave a challenge to German sommelier Peter Freislederer to build up an innovative and seductive wine list and he was told to place the emphasis on local Andalucian wines. This was an interesting job as to find the right wines for Scandinavian gourmets is not easy, but it is rewarding. For example they found Flor de Indalia wine from Almeria. That is just a perfect match for salted trout or roasted seabass. With reindeer the recommendation is Garum, a full bodied red wine from the Cadiz area.
Simply Scandinavian restaurant is open every night except Mondays from 7pm and stays open until midnight. You will find more information as well as the latest news and offers at Facebook/simplyscandinavianrestau rant.

This week Celebrity Chef from Ready Steady Cook & Fellow Master Chef Steven Saunders, proprietor of The Little Geranium in La Cala cooks for his celebrity friends at a charity event.
Born Free! Steven Saunders FMCGB The Little Geranium La Cala de Mijas & Marbella www.thelittlegeranium.com
I WAS patron of several charities in the UK when I operated my restaurants and hotel over there, one of them was the Born Free Foundation. I have always loved animals and I have been against entrapping beautiful creatures in a zoo or in cages and in particular it makes me angry that humans kill elephants for their ivory tusks and wild cats like leopards and tigers for their skins. Born Free is passionate about keeping wildlife in the wild and I assisted them in raising funds to protect these wild animals and in particular to create elephant orphanages for the babies of the grown elephants that were killed. One of the things I did to raise money was to run the London Marathon. Now I am not a running machine so it wasn’t an easy task,
but I did it to raise about £50,000 as it was a great cause and I completed the 2001 London Marathon in four hours five minutes, my objective was to be within four hours 30 minutes to collect the 50K. To celebrate reaching my goal we threw a party at our hotel (Sheene Mill) near Cambridge and Virginia McKenna, the actress from the original Born Free movie and founder of the charity was there along with Kiki Dee, the singer who sang with Elton John the No 1 hit song Don’t go breaking my heart. Kiki who lived locally to me in Hertfordshire was also a patron of Born Free and she sang the song Born Free at our event, a slow and sensual version that many of us know well from Matt Monro, Andy Williams and Frank Sinatra. It was more than magical and everyone

sett, the actress from the 1970 film The Railway Children. What the hell do you feed a group like this who in the main don’t eat meat or fish? Obviously it has to be vegetarian but it had to be cried their eyes out! Amongst the guests, we had Cheryl Baker (Bucks Fizz) David Emanuel, my friend who designed Princess Diana’s wedding dress, Vicky Michelle the actress from the hit comedy series Allo Allo!, Linda Robson from the TV series Birds of a Feather and Sally Thom-
amazing! I created a tasting menu made up of about six courses starting with watermelon gazpacho, followed by tempura asparagus with ponzu, roasted home-made haloumi with spiced tomato sorbet, gnocchi with lentil cassoulet, roasted butternut squash with gorgonzola soufflé
and wild mushroom risotto with fresh black truffle shavings. The dinner got a standing ovation from everyone including the meat eaters and I learned a very important lesson from that evening. It was that vegetarian food can and should be exciting, full of flavours and textures and should be able to replace meat or fish dishes with the same enjoyment and wow factor. The watermelon gazpacho I made is currently on our tasting menu at The Little Geranium as an amuse bouche. It’s fairly simple to make and deliciously refreshing. It’s a real winner, you must try this recipe!
Steven Saunders’s opinions are his own and are not necessarily representative of those of the publishers, advertisers or sponsors.
Watermelon gazpacho Half a fresh watermelon (cut into 2/3 cm cubes with seeds removed) • 1 celery stalk, roughly chopped • 3 cloves garlic peeled and blanched (see below) • 2 large ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped • 1/2 English cucumber, peeled and roughly chopped • 1 r e d b e l l p e p p e r, d e seeded and roughly chopped • 1/2 a red Jalapeno chilli pepper with seeds removed • Juice of 1 lime
• Handful fresh basil leaves Seasonings • 1 teaspoon Maldon salt • 1 / 2 t e a s p o o n f r e s h l y ground black pepper • 1 tablespoon apple or cider vinegar • 1 teaspoon of white truffle oil Method Blanch the garlic cloves
in water until it boils then leave simmering for a few minutes. Drain ready for use. This eliminates the strong heat that you get from raw garlic. Put all the ingredients (except seasonings) into a blender and pulse until it reaches a soup-like consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning with the salt and pepper and vinegar pulse again. Chill in the fridge for two to three hours before serving. Pour the gazpacho into small glasses or small bowls that have been chilled in the fridge. Drizzle with the truffle oil just before serving.
GAZPACHO: Chill in the fridge for two to three hours before serving.

BARRY DUKE LAUGH? I thought I’d never stop while engaging with friends Brian and Roberto in Benidorm’s Company bar recently. Over glasses of red wine and Famous Grouse whis ky, t e a r s o f mirth flowed unchecked as we began fleshing out my plan to write a stage show called Brexit the Musical. Rob su g g e st e d t h a t th e curtain should rise to reveal a giant hand with the middle finger raised towards an EU ban n e r. ‘ Te r r i f i c , ’ I agreed, ‘and from behind the banner we could have Tommy R o b i n so n , N ig e l Farage a n d An n Wi d d e combe looky-likes emerge arm-in-arm and goose-step while s i n g i n g ‘ I t Wi l l B e All White on the Night We Leave Europe’.’ We d i sc u sse d wa y s o f getting v a r i o u s c o m e d y stars and writers to engage with the production, which, we agreed, should be in the ‘worst possible taste.’ Just
Poking fun at Brexit like the movie The Producers which featured the outrag eo u s s o n g -an d -d anc e n u mb e r ‘S p rin g time for Hitler and Germany.’ Furthermore, I suggested, w e co u ld th en h av e a staunch pro-EU character, say a Sir Vince Cable doppelganger, sing a version of a P a u l S imo n s o n g I d o c tored a few months ago: The problem is all inside your head she said to me The answer is easy if you take it logically I’d lik e to h e lp y o u in your struggle to be Brexitfree There must be 50 ways to remain in the EU. She said it’s really not my habit to intrude Furthermore, I hope my m e a n in g wo n ’t b e lo s t or misconstrued But I’ll repeat myself at the risk of being crude There must be 50 ways to
stay in the EU Just ditch Theresa May, Jay Make a new plan, Sta You don’t need to be coy, Roy Just get yourself Tory free ... The w hole ide a c a me crashing down the following day when I discovered that some smart geezers had already staged Brexit the Musical - in 2017! In a review of the show at the Edinburgh festival, Will Hutton of the Guardian wrote: ‘From the first scene, where a Boris Johnson in Union Jack underpants realises with horror that Leave has won - ‘We will bugger the economy,” he sings - to the last, where he and his sidekick ‘Govey’ finally discover the plan that will save them and the country from ‘catastrophe,’ you are ever more uncomfortably aware that
BREXIT: The Musical. however effective a Brexit satire, it is trumped by Brexit truth.’ In calling for ‘a carnival of fun and mockery’ Hutton concluded: ‘There must be multiple versions of Brexit the M us ic a l mounte d in every pro-Leave constituency in the country, continually revised as every twist and turn in the story becomes
ever more incredible. ‘ Ever y ol d peopl e’s home, every ex-mining or ex-steel town, every seaside resort fearful of immigrat i on shoul d see t he show and laugh at Brexit. Let’s smile our way to victory and use sat i r e, t hat m ost British of reflexes, to consign Brexiters to history.’ Now that my Brexit the
Musical is dead in the wat er, I ’ l l have t o r esor t t o Pl an B and see whet her I can get the show staged in Spain. Heaven knows that there are enough blinkered Brexit-supporting expats here who need a dose of real i t y t o show t hem what horrors they are likely to face if leaving the EU ever becomes a reality.

Almost 65 per cent of the world’s population drives on the right side of the road.
Review Kia XCeed THE Kia XCeed is a new urban crossover utility vehicle (CUV) from Kia Motors that is said to combine the functionality of a compact SUV with sporty proportions and will be manufactured at the company’s European factory in Žilina, Slovakia, from the third quarter of 2019. The vehicle will come with a guarantee of seven years or 150,000 kms. The elevated body and driving position give the vehicle a very attractive robust image for the traditional buyer of an SUV. An infotainment system with ‘floating’ touch screen stands out in the dashboard, which, lower down, has a series of buttons, indicators and switches for controlling the volume of audio, heating and
ventilation. This has been designed to allow the driver to make quick changes, without having to look away from the road more than necessary. Based on the Ceed, one of the most spacious vehicles in its category, the Kia XCeed offers great roominess for the front and rear passengers. The height of the raised seat makes entry and exit easy and the crescent-shaped glass and the sloping roofline provide passengers with a bright environment and good headroom. With the rear seats folded down, the cargo volume increases to 1,378 litres. Versatility is also ensured thanks to the 40:20:40 split rear seats, the smart tailgate (Smart Power Tailgate) and a boot floor that can be placed on two levels, down to provide

der T-GDi reaches 140 hp and 242 Nm of torque. Also available will be the 1.6-litre T-GDi with a power of 204 hp and 265 Nm of torque. The Kia XCeed will also be available with two Smartstream power units, the cleanest diesel engines that
the brand has ever produced and the most economical consumption units in the range. The 1.6 litre Smartstream engine is offered either with 115 hp or with 136 hp. Except for the 1.0 L TGDi, all engines can be com-
bined with a six-speed manual gearbox or a seven-speed dual-clutch. The 1.0 L T-GDi has the six-speed manual gearbox. The Intelligent Stop & Go (ISG) automatic stop and start system is equipped as standard in all versions.
Morgan Plus Six IN its landmark 110th year in business, the Morgan Motor Company has introduced the all-new Morgan Plus Six. Further extending Morgan’s unique blend of crafts-
manship and technology, the Plus Six celebrates Morgan’s timeless design, underpinning it with the newly introduced CX-Generation aluminium bonded platform and the latest BMW powertrain. The Plus Six represents several firsts for Morgan, most notably the first time the company has utilised a turbocharged engine. The BMW 2019 B58 TwinPower Turbo inline sixcylinder engine which is the latest generation BMW engine. A closer look at the iconic Morgan silhouette gives a number of clues to just how radically different the Plus
ALL NEW: Morgan Plus Six.
Six is to any other Morgan models before it. Subtle vents provide a hint of the raw power and performance that underpin the beautiful flowing lines of the exterior. Make no mistake, whilst familiarly Morgan, almost every part of the Plus Six has been refined or redesigned, with less than 1 per cent of the 4,000 parts being shared across other Morgan models. A completely redesigned cabin celebrates the natural materials used with Morgan craftsmanship, as well as offering greater levels of per-
sonalisation than ever before. The new cockpit is more driver-focused and encompasses new technology, whilst also allowing customers more legroom and increased storage space. The Plus Six is also one of the cleanest vehicles within the Morgan range, with the new engine producing only 170g/km of CO2 and a combined MPG figure of 38.2mpg. A brand new but retrolooking removable hardtop is available, transforming this into a very versatile coupe.

Classic Car Club of Andalucía
Big news from Classic Car Club NE might be forgiven for thinking that only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun, but members of the Classic Car Club of Andalucia and the Jaguar Enthusiasts Club are a hardy lot and continue their summer activities and car runs. The big news this week is the announcement of Drive Andalucia’s seven-day Tour Al Andaluz to be held over seven days from Sunday October 6 to Saturday, October 12. Drive Andalucia is the ‘Events and Tours’ arm of the CCCA and puts on the longer tours where pure classic cars are not essential. More important is the willingness to enjoy driving, the cars and the countryside, good hotels and restaurants and great company! This terrific event will start from Malaga on the Sunday morning after a decent breakfast in the Montes de Malaga. The route will head up towards the beautiful old city of Ubeda where a black tie dinner will officially kick off the proceedings. The route will then go on, cross-country, to the mediaeval city of Toledo, staying at the fabulous restored 16th century palace that is now the Benavista Palace. Onwards to run along the route of the Al Andaluz which runs along the famous River Tags towards Badajoz for an overnight stop. After this, the event will head to Lisbon in Portugal where crews will enjoy a well earned two-night rest halt at a super five-star hotel in the city. Event organisers, Ian and Carol Giles, have just returned from the first of three or four recce trips necessary to prepare

DRIVE ANDALUCIA: Pure classic cars not essential. All in all another very successful day where everyone departed at about 5.30. The Club is always open to new members, be they Jaguar owners or just Jaguar enthusiasts. There are not that many Jaguars here on the Costa, but for this run the Club welcomed Norman and Pam Evans who managed, at last, to be in Spain this time. For August the Club will be having a break, but look forward to seeing members old and new when activities recommence in September. The Club is however, invited to attend the next car run organised by the CCCA on Saturday August 10.
GOOD HOTELS: And great company. the route and hotels etc and have reported back on what a marvellous and enjoyable city is Lisbon. Full of charm, culture and, more important, amazing restaurants! The route from there is not yet known, but will likely come through Sevilla for the last night and finish with a first-class lunch near Ronda on the Saturday. Entries are open to non-CCCA members and interested parties should contact Ian Giles, iangiles1@gmail.com.
The Jaguar Enthusiasts’ Club, Costa del Sol, enjoyed another glorious day which included a run north past Almogia towards the Lobo Park near
Antequera. JEC Chairman and event organiser, Philip Wray, was not able, on this occasion, to produce Tulip navigation sheets due to other major time constraints. He did produce a TomTom .gpx file to load onto a sat-nav as well as a link for Google maps. This did not matter as Rokaya Groeneveld had made a faithful copy of the route which she installed on her Smartphone. As usual the ability of Spain to produce fabulous road surfaces with bends every 100 metres or so became apparent, making for magnificent driving conditions, even in the blazing sunshine. Shortly after Fuente Amarga, Rokaya took the lead with Jan to take everyone through some stunning scenery past Lomas de la Tienda and Los Nogales before turning south for a well deserved coffee stop in Za-
CLASSIC CAR TOUR: Will run over seven days. lea at Bar La Herradura, always a popular spot for a break. From here was an easy run south towards Coin where crews stopped for a traditional glass of Cava and a chat about anything and everything, including cars. The small road in the woods chosen for the stop had for some reason become a magnet for numerous Spanish cars, one presumes the occupants were going for a walk in the woods with their dogs, but when the temperature is 32 that
seems to be a questionable pastime. Onwards round and over Mijas to Da Bruno Restaurante where we were treated to a fabulous meal and service by Giancarlo and his staff. A Prosecco aperitif followed by starters of mussels or salad, a main course of a very tasty Saltimbocca or Lubina with Penne as an option. Sweets consisted of a huge portion of apple strudel or luscious crepes with an orange sauce.
The next CCCA event will be the August Clubnight and dinner at Treetops Restaurant at El Chaparral on Tuesday, August 6. Dining ‘al fresco’ under the stars on the beautiful terrace there. New members, nonmembers and visitors are welcome to attend, although to participate in the classic car runs, membership is necessary. That’s it from me, until the next time - Happy summer motoring!
Further information on Classic Car Club of Andalucia events can be found on the Club’s website www.cccandalucia.com. Membership of this vibrant club is open to anyone owning a genuine classic car here in Spain. Saca tu coche clásico del garaje y diviértete con el.

Ron Garrood CONSIDERED to be one of the finest golf complexes in Andalucia and indeed the Costa del Sol, La Cala Golf comprises no less than three 18hole championship courses designed by the renowned American architect Cabell Robinson. Campo America - 6,009 metres, par 72 with five par 5s. Formerly the North Course, Campo America is enhanced by spectacular views to the
Sierra de Ojén and Mediterranean Sea. It’s wide, linked fairways and relatively few bunkers make this a slightly easier driving course, though the hilly topography requires a lot of carry across steep brush-covered side slopes while the small raised greens demand more precise club selection to hit the mark. There are water hazards on the 9th and 16th. Campo Europa - 6,014 metres, par 71. A dramatic course but easier for the average golfer, with generous fairways, flatter terrain and slightly larger greens
than Campo America and Asia. Notable for one main bridge and four smaller bridges across the River Ojén, which features in eight holes, cutting across three fairways. Water hazards guard the 3rd and 14th greens. The 14th is at the maximum limit of what is allowed for a par 3 at 233 metres. The par 5 11th is the longest hole at 524 metres. CostaLessGolf has an amazing offer for two players inc shared buggy on America or Europa for only €118.00 until 31/08/19. To book email: enquiries@costalessgolf.com or tel: 952 661 849 today.

Record title for Toni Bou
CARLOS SAINZ: Finding form en route to sixth in the British GP.
Stability suits Sainz SPANISH F1 driver Carlos Sainz has been speaking about his current situation at McLaren. With 38 points, he stands seventh in the World Championship, being the best classified outside Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull. It could be said he has now established himself as the leader of the mid-table drivers. Speaking to ‘Crash.net,’ he said that his good placing is due to the stability he has found at McLaren, saying he had never previously en-
joyed the luxury of a two-year contract. He said: “In Red Bull I had a cont r a c t t h a t I r e n e w e d e v e r y y e a r. I think sometimes it underestimates the impulse for a driver to know that he is going to be in one place for a couple of years. “I never had time to bed into a Formula 1 team. You could argue I was three years with Toro Rosso, but those three years every year in June there were rumours, things going on. “I wanted to make sure there was
stability and no talk about my future and I could only focus on Formula 1 and extracting the best out of me. “I think it’s the best way to perform as an athlete with a bit of stability. “ Yo u c a n s e e o n a m e d i u m - o r long-term deal how the whole team and driver works a bit more together. I think you’ve seen it this year with a few drivers that it does take a bit of time to adapt to a new car nowadays in Formula 1, or to extract the last two-10ths of a car.”
VICTORY: Bou has now racked up 26 championship wins. THE 32-year-old Catalan trials rider Toni Bou cemented his position as the greatest trials rider of all time after a s t u n n i n g v i c t o r y i n t h e s e v e n t h r o u n d o f t h e Tr i a l G P World Championship. He held off fellow countrymen Jaime Busto and Adam Raga in dominant fashion to take the win by a massive 14 points. His victory in Auron, France, brings his total individual victory tally to 173 since he began in 2003 and means he defends the title for the 13th consecutive time with one round to spare. The Repsol Honda rider has now racked up a total of 26 championship victories during his career, including 13 indoor trial championships.
THE Irish have done it again at The Open this time in the form of Shane Lowry. He used his local knowledge and held his nerve to withstand dreadful weather conditions and secure a sixshot victory over Englishman Tommy Fleetwood. He posted a 72 at Portrush in Northern Ireland to win the Claret Jug on 15 under par. It was his to give away after his record-breaking 63 on Saturday evening, and he never really looked like succumbing to nerves.
To m m y F l e e t w o o d f i n ished on nine under, with third placed Tony Finau a further two shots behind as the chasing pack had to deal with the worst of the conditions. Lowry becomes the sixth Irish major champion, after Fred Daly (1947 Open), Padraig Harrington (2007 and 2008 Open, 2008 PGA), Graeme McDowell (2010 US Open), Rory M c I l r o y ( 2 0 11 U S O p e n , 2012 and 2014 PGA, 2014 Open) and Darren Clarke (2011 Open).

I feel like I am in an out-of-body experience. I was so calm. “It’s just incredible to be sitting here with a trophy in front of me. Look at the names on it,” Lowry added. “I hit my tee shot on 18, that was it, and I started to enjoy it then. It was just incredible to walk down 18.
The crowd was going wild. I tried to soak it in as much as I could. “I didn’t even know going out this morning if I was good enough to win a Major. And look, I’m here now, a Major Champion. I can’t believe I’m saying it, to be honest.” L e e We s t w o o d a n d Brooks Koepka finished in a tie for fourth on six und e r, w h i l e F r a n c e s c o Molinari signed off his

He entered the final day handily placed for a top five finish. But a four over par total saw him finish on three under for 11th spot. A level par final round would have seen him take a share of third.
Afterwards Rahm said: “It was a mix of some bad shots and bad luck.” He added: “I have the feeling of having played three different tournaments in a week. On Thursday I started very well, I became leader, but finished badly. Friday was the opposite, then on Saturday I was in good shape. And today, on the easiest holes I was four over par and then for the rest of the round I made p a r. I d o n ’t t h i n k m a n y players have played par for the last 14 holes.” Speaking about Lowry he said: “He’s a real champion. In these conditions of wind and rain, winning the tournament is something really meritorious.”

By James Warren THE Aruba.it Racing rider Alvaro Bautista must be wondering what he has done to deserve the luck he is having at the moment coming into the mid-season break in this year’s World
Superbike Championship. The rider from Toledo started 2019 in record breaking fashion, taking 11 straight victories in the first four rounds, giving him a title lead of 61 points. The title looked to be a foregone conclusion. However, the
reigning champion, Irishman Jonathan Rea, was always closely on his heels, never finishing any lower than third place. Rounds five, six and seven would see Bautista rack up three more victories but also three crucial DNFs, which lost him major ground in the title fight. However, it would be rounds eight and nine at Donnington Park and Laguna Seca where it all started to unravel. The UK races would see Kawasaki rider Rea take three solid victories whilst Bautista could only manage a DNF,
fourth and a third, losing a fistful of points to his main rival. He would fair even worse in the American round, with three pointless races for Bautista, but two victories and a second for Rea, who swept into the title lead. This change in fortunes is record-breaking, a total swing of 142 points in just 10 races is the biggest in WorldSBK history. Bautista’s second place is also not safe, as the battle for third in the championship is hotting up with strong results from Kawasaki’s Toprak Razgatli-
