A WEIGHT LIFTED tions take into account the need for animal welfare as well as the interests of the donkey handlers and the council itself. Director of the Refugio del Burros donkey sanctuary Veronica Sanchez said: “We are very happy to have reached this point, which includes the concept of animal welfare and its development with specific measures, which include national and European regulations. “It is something pioneering because they are incorporated into municipal ordinances.” The Department of Transport and Mobility has also announced that information and awareness-raising campaigns will be carried out. Cruz added that work is being done to find alternative locations to the current stables in order to “respond to the needs that the current ones do not cover, as they are facilities dating from 50 years ago and the regulations have changed a lot.”
By Dilip Kuner MIJAS’S famous donkey taxis can breathe a sigh of relief - a new law means they will not be allowed to carry passengers weighing more than 80 kilos. It is one of the measures contained in a proposed local law that regulates the service. The donkey rides have been growing ever more controversial in recent years as people raise animal welfare issues. The ordinance aims to address people’s concerns, but it will not come into force until the new year and first has to be rubber stamped after a public consultation, although this is seen as a formality. The town council is tightening up veterinary controls, which will be intensified and conditions will be improved both in the stables and at the taxi ranks. Councillor for Transport and Mobility, Nicolas Cruz, says that all the measures in the new regulations are the result of meetings that the town council has held with muleteers and different animal groups. He says that the regula-

Repeat offender arrested NATIONAL POLICE have busted one of the most active heroin and cocaine points of sale in Estepona. It is reported that they arrested three people - two women and a man between the ages of 49 and 61 and all of Spanish nationality, as allegedly being responsible for drug trafficking offences. A search of the premises uncovered a stash of 110 doses of cocaine, 22.3 grams of heroin, 33.4 hashish, 27 doses of methadone and €11,570 in cash. The investigation began in September when officers received information regard-
ing illegal activities spotted by the neighbour of a man known to be dealing heroin. A surveillance device was set up to verify this activity which led them to the home of a suspect who had already been arrested four times for alleged drug offences. However, officers were unable to pin anything on the man at that point. After further investigation, it was discovered that in order to evade the police the man had employed two women to make drug deliveries for him. This prevented drug users from having to come to his home and so reduced any suspicion of dealing.
DRUG TRAFFICKING: Three detained.
Fire murder attempt Andalucia election figures THE trial of a man accused of trying to kill a woman squatter by setting her room on fire starts tomorrow (Friday). Prosecutors are asking for the defendant to be jailed for 18 years over the August 2018 incident in Calle Saltire, Malaga. A prosecutor’s report says that the man had argued with the woman and threatened to set her on fire. Then, when the woman retired to the room she was living in, the defendant ful-
filled his promise. Around 11.30pm, the prosecutor says, the victim woke up to hear the defendant at her door. He then lit the lower part of the door, with the fire spreading quickly due to a flammable liquid being used. After several attempts, the victim managed to open the latch and leave the room. Disoriented, she tried to leave the house, although she had to be helped by another squatter.
FOLLOWING the recent Spanish elections PSOE has come out on top in Andalucia as the most voted party in seven out of eight of the region’s capitals with Granada favouring the PP. But the party has lost support since the general election in April dropping
150,000 ballots. In Andalucia the PSOE maintains its strength with 25 seats, PP holds 15, but Vox show to be the clear winner by doubling its representation from six to 12. Ciudadanos have lost eight seats seeing them take a drop from 11 to three. Unidas Podemos go down from nine to six.
Despite the blow for Ciudadanos, the result is not as bad as in the rest of the country, Andalucia contributes a third of the seats that support Albert Rivera in Spain. However, they now face another challenge as after his party’s disappointing results in the snap general election, he resigned from his position as president of the party.

PRECARIOUS: Visitors can walk along the gorge’s steep walls.
One of the most dangerous walkways PERCHED upon the walls of a frighteningly narrow gorge in the province of Malaga is a walkway called ‘El Caminito del Rey.’ The King’s Pathway is located in El Chorro lake district and is famous for its scary 100-metre drop. Initially, the walkway was built for workers at the hydroelectric power plant at Chorro Falls. They used the path to cross between the two sides of the gorge and transport materials. In
1921, King Alfonso XIII crossed the bridge for the inauguration of the Guadalorce dam. From that moment onwards, the pathway received its iconic name. El Caminito del Rey has been known as the ‘world’s most dangerous walkway’ after five people fell to their deaths between 1999 and 2000. Enthusiastic climbers would try and traverse the perilous path, but many sections of concrete were collapsed, with only narrow steel beams for support.
Suspicious death
Man kidnapped A COUPLE owed money from a drugs sale kidnapped a man, then made him set up a marihuana plantation in his home, police allege. National Police officers have arrested a 42-year-old man and a 54-year-old woman, for illegal detention, coercion, drug trafficking and misappropriation. A man complained to police that he had been held against his will for seven days by a couple to whom he owed money for a drug-related issue. He said that during the detention he was threatened with a gun, was forced to finance the purchase of a television and set up a plantation in a spare room of his house in Antequera. A police search found 50 grammes of marihuana, 3.92 grammes of cocaine and substances for cutting the drug. In addition, a television, three small arms, a precision scale, nine mobile phones and €135 were seized.
FOLLOW US ON
Following the inevitable accidents, the local government closed both entrances. For a decade, the gangway remained closed due to disrepair. But after four years of renovations and a €9 million budget, the walkway reopened to the public in 2015. Currently, the King’s Pathway is an emblematic tourist attraction and tickets are mostly sold out. Visitors can walk 2.9 kilometres along the side of the stunning gorge and observe the walkway’s history in the museum.
POLICE are investigating the suspicious death of a 58-yearold Belgian woman whose body was found showing signs of violence in a farmhouse. A call was put through to the 112 emergency line at 5.20pm on Tuesday saying there was a woman apparently unconscious in the property in the Pecho del Molino area of Tolox. Guardia Civil and medics arrived to find the unnamed woman was dead. Francisca Garcia, a councillor in the town in the Sierra de las Nieves town confirmed that the woman had died violently. Garcia met the deceased woman a month ago, when the victim went to Tolox Town Hall. He said: “She came to ask for an IBI receipt and I attended to her personally. She wouldn’t have been living in Tolox for long, because it was the first time I had seen her.”

NEW AGE POLITICS OCTOBER 26 officially marked four years of political limbo for Spain. Starting in autumn of 2015 when Mariano Rajoy called for elections, a consolidated government hasn’t been formed since. Two general elections and a vote of no confidence later, meant Spaniards would have to visit the ballot boxes once again. Turbulence and disorientation reigned in the months running up to November 10, with parties desperately trying to strengthen their standing. However, further confusion follows the general elections after a very divided vote. The repeat national election was meant to break the deadlock, but has only managed to block the political sphere even more. The third elections have been a fiasco for the left, that could have easily avoided them by joining forces. Far from reinforcing acting government PSOE, the results have boosted right-wing party PP and meant the rise of far-right party Vox. Pedro Sánchez - acting president has won the elections a second time, but will find forming government an even harder task than back in April. His main allies, Unidas Podemos, have gone from 45 seats to 35 and new party Más País has only managed three seats. PP has gone from 66 seats to a healthy 88 and Vox has increased from 24 to 52, in a big breakthrough for the far-right. PSOE had faced the elections with confidence, but has instead lost three seats. Results for Ciudadanos have seen the party sink from 57 to a measly 10 seats. Their leader, Albert Rivera, shocked his party with a swift resignation following the news. Until a year ago, Spain was the only European country without a xenophobic

party in Congress. Now, Vox has achieved 962,000 more votes than in April and can be considered the third political force in the country. The ghost of a Left-wing coalition will haunt Pedro Sánchez and Pablo Iglesias - leader of Unidas Podemos - who weren’t able to reach an agreement over the summer. Sunday’s election has seen their votes plummet and their options grow slimmer. General participation went down all over the country, with citizens having grown weary of the legislative instability. It was notable that in areas of high agricultural activity and greenhouses, Vox received considerable support. Algeciras, Estepona, Mazarrón, Cartagena and Torre Pacheco are some of the areas where Vox received a generous backing. Going forward, options are limited and negotiations will be complex. The simple days of bipartisanship are a thing of the past and now Spain will have to contend with coalitions and the new age of politics. The blockage continues, but there is maybe one advantage: it will be hard to force yet another election.
Officer jailed for deaths A GUARDIA CIVIL officer’s appeal against a jail term for being responsible for the deaths of three people when he drove while on drinks and drugs has been rejected. The Court of Malaga has confirmed the fouryear sentence imposed on Miguel C L in March for the June 2017 incident. The court heard that, as well as the deaths, several people were injured in the crash on the A-7 at the Costa del Sol town of Torremolinos. Judges rejected a defence claim that mistakes had been made in the evaluation of the evidence and therefore he should be acquitted. In a written judgement the court said that it was proven that the man - since dismissed from the force - was over the alcohol limit, had taken drugs, driven recklessly and was guilty of three counts of causing death by serious recklessness and nine of recklessly causing injury. The court heard that at the time of the crash
the defendant was travelling at 149 kph in a 100 kph zone. At one point, and after passing a vehicle on the left, the defendant began to return to the right lane. As he did so he hit another car. Despite this he carried on driving at high speed. He then hit a taxi which span out of control and its five occupants were thrown from the vehicle. A Bahraini man and woman and a Kuwaiti woman died, while nine others were injured in the pile-up that ensued. Miguel C L tried to flee the scene, but was stopped by a National Police patrol. In addition to the prison sentence, compensation was paid to the victims, which amounted to a total of around €1.4 million, the result of an agreement between the victims’ representatives and the insurance company, and he was banned from driving for five years.

Firefighters get the bird A REPORT was received by the environment department of the Junta de Andalucia late last week that an apparently injured or disorientated Griffon Vulture had been observed for some time perched on the roof of a restaurant in La Cala de Mijas. The local fire brigade was alerted to this and officers were dispatched to try to capture the bird without causing any injury or distress to it. Two officers gained access to the roof and managed to place the bird into a net and remove it safely. It was then transferred to the endangered species recovery centre in Malaga for checks and eventual release back into the wild. Spain is home to 75 per cent of the world’s population of Griffon Vultures and 90 per cent of all Griffon Vultures in Europe are found in Spain with a population estimated as being more than 3,000 breeding pairs in Andalucia alone.

BREXIT BRIEF
Fewer Brexit candidates by John Smith ALTHOUGH the Brexit Party previously announced that it would contest at least 600 seats in the forthcoming election, it has now had a change of mind according to leader Nigel Farage. There was an original suggestion of a pact with the Conservatives that the Brexit Party would not contest certain key seats and although the pact never saw the light of day, he has decided that no Brexit candidate will stand in 317 seats previously won by the Conservatives in THERE is a significant side effect from the decision by Nigel Farage to stop Brexit party candidates from standing against the Conservatives in 317 constituencies and that is anger.

Port feuds on BUSINESSES in Puerto Banus have reiterated their complaints to the concessionaire regarding their terraces. The protests arose after a notable increase in the occupancy rate of the terraces. Businesspeople are refusing the new conditions and are asking for new measures be taken against ‘abusive practices in the management of the port area.’ Business owners have also questioned the city-planning qualification of the area, and have come to the conclusion that a large section of the terraces are on a public road. They consider the terrace areas were once streets and squares and are outside of the port’s dominion. Therefore, businesses consider they should be exempt from paying and are awaiting a response form the town hall.
ANGRY OWNERS: Businesses haven’t accepted the port’s increased fees.
The document presented to the council refers to the current planning for Puerto Banus that indicates ‘all public roads will be in the public domain.’ Technical reports were also quoted in which licences to enclose some of the terraces, were denied as they are in a ‘pedestrian zone.’ In addition, local businesses
have denounced the metal doors that have been placed along the perimeter of the second line of the port. They claim the doors have ‘restricted access for disabled people and reduced pedestrian crossing, with negative economic consequences.’ Port authorities have refused to make any further declarations
on the controversy. Back in April, authorities said that the terraces were within the port’s concession, as they had been for the last 50 years without any type of conflict. The problem initially arose at the end of 2017, when Puerto Banus raised the rates for terraces by 25 per cent.

National Police detained the 42-year-old man in Puerto Banus in Marbella on a European Arrest Warrant. He is wanted in France on drug trafficking and membership of a criminal organisation charges. The fugitive R M, born in Nador (Morocco), was in a bar with two others when police identified and arrested him. According to the warrant, the fugitive was part of a criminal organisation engaged in large-scale drug trafficking from Morocco to Spain and then on to France. He was allegedly in charge of receiving drugs once they reached Spain and then storing them in Cataluña before sending them on to Marseille. He was allegedly the intermediary between the Moroccan producers and the final buyers in Marseilles, being the only point of contact between them. In addition, he was in charge of giving the go ahead for the transport of the narcotics once he had received payment. The French investigating magistrate is asking for him to be jailed for 30 years. He is now in a Spanish court’s custody while awaiting extradition.

PETROL STATION ROBBERIES: Car wash targetted.
Clean bandits NATIONAL POLICE arrested four people in Antequera, two men and two women, allegedly responsible for five robberies of highpressure washing machines at petrol stations in Malaga and Antequera. Investigations began following two robberies of machines in Casabermeja and Villanueva del Rosario petrol stations where the locked money tray had been forced
open and the contents removed. Officers were aware of three similar robberies that had been committed at three other stations in the northern part of the capital of Malaga. Police were led to believe that four young people were behind the robberies. The group were said to be travelling by car and pulling into the station as if to use the car wash. One of the women would get out and keep lookout whilst the other would begin to clean the car, whilst they were creating
this distraction the two men would force open the collection box with a lever and collect the money, then the group would move on to the next station. It is reported they managed up to a total of five robberies in barely three hours, between 6.00pm and 9.00pm on Saturday, October 26. Two men aged 20 and 21 years and two women of 23 and 26 - residents of the Granada town of Lรกchar were identified as the alleged perpetrators and swiftly arrested.
Hijacking preparations SECURITY measures were rehearsed as Malaga Airport performed an aircraft hijacking drill. N ational Police, the Air Force and the Guardia Civil participated in the simulation. The drill was the initiative of the Spanish Air Safety Agency and Alba Star airline provided a plane for the occasion, simulating a regular flight from Mallorca to North Africa with a stopover in Malaga.

ARRESTS MADE: National Police working on money laundering case (file photo.)
Arrests in money laundering case A FORMER high ranking official of the Russian Ministry of Culture, his wife, grown-up child and a Marbella lawyer have been arrested accused of money laundering. The case revolves around the buying of a €4 million villa in the Costa del Sol town, with it alleged the money paid was derived from tax crimes and corruption in the Russian Federation. The man was arrested in Vienna, while National Police made the other arrests in Marbella and Estepona. In 2018 police in Malaga Province received a request for information from the Russian authorities about an alleged largescale tax fraud committed in their country by the official of the Ministry of Culture, who according to Russian information was living on the Costa del Sol. Russian authorities issued an international arrest warrant for the extradition of the suspect for his alleged involvement in two cases of corruption in his country, where he is accused of taking advantage of his status. In one of the legal proceedings in Russia, he is accused, in collusion with others, of embezzlement of some $7.2 million (€6.5
million) of public funds that had been earmarked for the reconstruction of the Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg, Russia. In the second case, the same individuals were reportedly convicted in 2017 for the embezzlement of $2.6 million (€2.4 million) that should have been used for the reconstruction of architectural heritage monuments in various Russian regions. Spanish police investigations led them to a home in Estepona where the family is said to have lived since 2015. Officers found that through a Spanish company linked to them, they had acquired luxury real estate in Marbella for €4 million, paid for via a transfer from a Swiss bank. Spanish law allows for money laundering crimes where the funds come from abroad can be tried in Spain, so a European Warrant was issued for the arrest of the suspect by a Marbella court. The main suspect was arrested in Austria where he awaits an extradition hearing. Police have seized a luxury villa in Marbella, a high-end vehicle valued at about €100,000, about €160,000 in bank accounts and cash, as well as high-value jewellery, and various documentation.
Youths detained TWO youths have been arrested for allegedly robbing other children. The duo - whose ages have not been disclosed but are described as ‘minors’ are said to have approached a boy who was sitting with some friends on a bench in
a green space on Malaga’s Avenida de la Aurora. After introducing themselves and establishing a conversation with them, they demanded that they hand over their telephones. When the aggressors found none of the boys had a mobile, they intimidated them
into handing over any valuables and cash carried by the victims. After several inquiries, the officers identified two suspects who were arrested for alleged robbery, and have been placed at the disposal of the Juvenile Prosecutor’s Office.

Like a rhinestone cowboy JOHNNY WESTWOOD is not only the coast’s most popular country music star with his show ‘The Legends of Country,’ but he has recently achieved stardom in America, specifically in the home of country music, Nashville, Tennessee. Johnny has been entertaining audiences throughout the Costa del Sol with his sold-out solo show for the last 15 years and amassed a great following. One such fan contacted him by email to tell him how much he enjoyed his work, he added that he was a songwriter from the USA. Johnny, not taking it too seriously, shot back a message cheekily asking the man to write him a song. What he didn’t know at that point was that the fan was David Allen Kirchner, a multi-platinum songwriter, who decided to go one better and send him 40 songs. The two worked together whittling down that 40 to 10 of the best songs that made it onto Johnny’s first album ‘The Window or the Walls.’ Johnny was signed to independent US label Echota records who are based in North Georgia. The first single Just a Kiss made its way into the American independent country charts and topped the Spanish independent charts by hitting number one. His follow up single Rain in Tulsa scored him his first number one in the American independent country charts. Johnny’s profile began to grow and he received two nominations at the Josie Music Awards to be held in the

Artist award, the shortlist for which had been trimmed down from 24,000 worldwide hopefuls to just 15. After posing for his picture on the red carpet he was approached by Justin Peters, CEO of Nashville’s Platinum Planets records who was so impressed he snapped Johnny up for a five-year songwriting contract. Westwood hasn’t allowed his head to get too big for his Stetson, the option is there for him to move Stateside but he admitted that he would rather stay here, where he feels at home. Before Johnny moved here to his adopted home he lived in London. He had been drawn there, from Cambridge, by the bright lights of the West End and became an actor appearing on stage, in film and in TV shows such as This Life, Dalziel and Pascoe, Silent Witness and a recurring role in Crossroads. He also went on to found his own Amoeba theatre company. Out in a West End lounge one night he got up to sing along with the pianist, they were playing Rhinestone Cowboy. Among the patrons was a West End booking agent who was so impressed she vowed to get him a show, she found him a 40-minute country slot. From there it was onwards and upwards. Johnny began a one-man tour that took him all over Europe, it passed through the Costa del Sol so often that he decided to set down some roots. He has a great deal of support here which really showed when he was diagnosed with cancer in 2013. Friends and fans threw fundraisers in his aid. He was close to death at one point but
managed to pull through and beat the disease. The entertainer felt that he had been given another chance and it had given him a sense of focus. The star has made entertaining his life, more importantly, country music. He is currently working on a second

WORRYING: Half of diabetes patients in Malaga ignore medical advice.
Doctor’s orders ignored HALF of the population with diabetes in Malaga doesn’t comply with the prescribed treatment. Fifteen per cent of residents in Malaga have this condition, which can cause cardiovascular disease and blindness. The director of clinical endocrinology at the University Hospital in Malaga, Francisco Tinahones, has coordinated a provincial seminar on diabetes. He explained that half of diabetes sufferers
don’t follow the correct treatment advised by their doctor. This silent killer is considered a pandemic by the World Health Organisation. Doctor Tinahones said that if it isn’t controlled, the metabolic disorder can cause serious complications such as cardiovascular diseases, amputations and loss of vision. Despite this, many patients are unaware of the risks, which leads them to disregard their treatment. Specialists got together in Malaga to revise the
current situation and the challenges faced, with the main goal of stopping the progress of the disorder in the province. Tinahones bought to attention the fact that a lot of inaccurate information circulates on social media, leading to patients abandoning their medical care. In Spain, around 14 per cent of the population has diabetes. In Andalucia, the number is higher and an estimated 90 to 95 per cent suffer from diabetes type II.
PARTS of the Costa del Sol are being put on a yellow weather war ning alert with strong winds and large waves predicted for today (Thursday, November 14). The State Meteorology Agency (Aemet) is predicting winds gusting up to 80 kph in the Serrania de Ronda mountains that lead inland from Marbella to Ronda. At the moment the alert covers this area only, but it may be extended to other parts of the Costa del Sol, the agency warns. At the same time people are being warned of waves of between two and three metres along the Malaga coastline. Aemet is not expecting the strong winds to be accompanied by heavy rain, although a drop in temperatures to maximums of 17 degrees and lows of 13 degrees Celsius are expected on the coast.

COMPENSATION: Costly delays on Malaga’s Metro. THE Andalucian government has paid almost €4 million in compensation to a construction company for the metro building work in Malaga. The Ministr y of Development is awaiting judicial sentences that may involve a further €10 million in compensation. The Board has already paid €3.8 million to one of the companies involved in the metro works. This amount
refers to the termination of the contract with the previous company in charge of the Perchel sector. The court dictated the compensation after technical discrepancies and lawsuits currently pending resolution could mean more big pay outs. However, the figure is among the smallest of the reimbursements paid throughout Andalucia, totalling €196 million. In Sevilla, €175 million in total was compensated to constructors for the metro. Minister for Development,
Marifrán Carazo, has explained that the squandering of funds is due to claims for overhead, extra-contractual work and delays. The Ministry has started to apply an informatic tool called Building Information Modelling that reduces deviations. This technique is included in the European directive for public procurement processes and will be applied for the metro extensions in Malaga, Sevilla and Granada. The Board is working towards the universal use of this tool by 2020.
Airport drugs arrests TWO people have been arrested at Malaga airport on drugs charges in separate incidents. In the first one, Guardia Civil saw a suspected person getting off a flight from Brazil to Malaga having transited through Casablanca (Morocco). When officers stopped him, the man appeared nervous and his luggage was searched, with no illegal items found. But seeing the suspect was still nervous, officers decided to x-ray the man, with a large number of capsules revealed in his stomach. He was taken to hospital due to the high level
of danger he was in should the capsules which contained narcotics burst. When passed through his system a total of 124 capsules containing a total of 1.43 kilos of cocaine were found. In the second police action, officers manning a scanner detected several suspicious bags in a suitcase destined for a flight to Tallinn (Estonia). They detained the case’s owner just as he was about to board the flight. A search of the suspicious luggage revealed 16.5 kilos of marihuana in four vacuum packed bags. The Italian owner of the case was arrested and handed into court custody.
Rescued from cave EMERGENCY services rescued an injured man who fell into a cave in Ronda. The victim fell five metres and was taken to the Serrania de Ronda Hospital. Rescuers managed to locate the 29-yearold man who they had been searching for in

Walker’s body recovered Big plans for tallest building in Spain in taxing conditions GUARDIA CIVIL managed to recover the body of a walker who went missing in the Gredos mountains in the centre of Spain following a 24-hour rescue operation in taxing conditions. Difficult terrain and adverse weather meant it took the team more than eight hours of walking to bring the body down. The emergency services first alerted the Guardia to the walker’s disappearance just before midnight on November 3, reporting he had failed to return to where he had parked his car. The Guardia immediately launched the action protocol. Tw o R e s c u e a n d M o u n t a i n G r o u p s p e c i a l i s t s started the search and location operation and a h e l i c o p t e r f r o m t h e To r r e j o n d e A r d o z b a s e d i n Madrid was mobilised, although it was unable to fly due to the weather. Following a search of more than 12 hours on foot in strong winds, rain, snow and fog the team located the walker in an area known as Canal No r t e C l a s i c a d e l A l m a n z o r i n Z a p a r d i e l d e l a Ribera in Avila at an altitude of 2,441 metres. At midday on November 5 Guardia officers from Greim and one from Ereim got to the location of the body to carry it down in what was by now worsening weather. They made it to the Gredos Platform just before 9.30pm where the walker’s family members were waiting to identify their loved one.
OURENSE Council has announced plans to build the highest building in Spain and the fifth tallest in Europe.

PRICEY: ‘Correos’ building will be auctioned for €16.8 million.
Feeling the pinch THE Andalucian gover nment has green lighted the sale of the ‘Correos’ and ‘Palacio de la Tinta’ buildings in Malaga. The post o f f i c e ’s b u i l d i n g i s p r i c e d a t €1 6 . 8 m i l lion, whilst the French influence ‘Palacio de la Tinta’ would be put on the market at €12.5 million. The government authorised the sale by public auction of the two properties that are currently owned by the autonomous community,
with the intention to make the spaces profitable and put an end to their disuse. Both will go on sale for over €29 million, a sum that will vastly improve regional fund collection. With the sale, the Board wants to alleviate the economic burden of maintaining the unused buildings. In the case of the old Post Office building, the Board pays €106,500 of IBI per year, amounting to €1 million of public funds since 2010. Hacienda has carried on this initiative and published a list of properties to be sold
by auction. The 22 buildings located all over Andalucia amount to a starting price exceeding €47 million. More properties will follow, all of them unused, with the objective of filling up Andalucia’s treasury. Maximum profitability is the objective of this operation and bidding will not contemplate the acceptance of low offers. A long task lies ahead, as empty and depreciated properties with maintenance costs and no administrative utility will be catalogued for future auction.
Language initiative ESTEPONA City Council has launched a new service of interpreters for foreign parents of children attending schools in the town. The initiative was developed through the Area of Foreign Residents and Municipal Delegation of Education and has been extended to cover secondary schools. This project gives the parents the ability to express themselves in Spanish, assisted by an interpreter should they encounter any problems. Communication then proves to be more fluid which assures nothing is lost in translation keeping the academic performance of the student as the main focus. This service is developed thanks to the collaboration of a group of 14 volunteers who offer translations in a total of 10 languages - English, French, Russian, Polish, Romanian, Bulgarian, Norwegian, Hungarian, Ukrainian and Arabic. The project creates a relationship between teacher and parent allowing them to monitor their child’s school life together and providing better support or reinforcement if required. This pioneering service has been well accepted among the educational community, which considers it as a very useful mechanism for educators, as it represents a significant improvement in communication between teachers and parents.
Voting in the UK General Election BRITISH citizens living abroad may vote in UK general elections, referendums and European Parliament elections for up to 15 years after leaving the UK but may only do so if they were registered to vote in the UK while living there. Those who were under 18 at the time of leaving the UK may vote as long as their parent or guardian was registered to vote in the UK and must apply accordingly. The actual limit is arbitrary and has changed from as little as seven years to more than 15, but it was Conservative policy that the time limit should be scrapped and it supported a private members bill to this effect. For various reasons, it was not considered possible to push the bill through prior to the Brexit Referendum or the last election and now it was talked out of Parliament earlier in the year, so those who have lived outside of the UK for more than 15 years will not be allowed to vote in the General Election on December 12. If you are already registered with your local council as an active voter living overseas then it is expected that your ballot paper will be posted to you on or about
November 20. If however you have not yet confirmed registration, but were registered on the electoral list prior to your leaving the UK (or were under 18 and qualify) , then this must be done by 5pm November 26 and your ballot paper should be posted on November 30. Due to the tight time frame there is a very strong risk that some Overseas Electors would not be able to receive and return a postal vote in time for it to be counted by 10pm on the day of election. There is also the possibility that a postal strike by Royal Mail will take place in November/December 2019 which could cause chaos for postal votes. Because of this local councils are strongly advising that potential voters should consider changing their arrangement to a proxy vote instead by appointing someone to vote on their behalf, but they would need to be registered themselves and be eligible to vote in national elections. As European nationals are not able to vote in UK Parliamentary elections, your proxy would need to hold British, Irish or Commonwealth nationality.
Proxy forms for Overseas & Crown Servant Electors are available to download from the website: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/apply-to-vote-by-proxy-if-youre-living-overseas. Most Councils can accept a scanned form as an image attached to an email. This information is for guidance only, and should not be taken as legal advice. If in any doubt, seek professional help.

The transformation of the castle, including the purchase and remodelling works, is estimated at around €7 million. Sources close to the project have confirmed the property has been closed down awaiting building work. The lavish hotel will join many 5-star hotels in the wait for Andalucia to approve a decree for this type of luxurious establishments. A licence to complete the reforms has been requested from the Planning Department in order to continue the project. The future hotel will host 20 rooms, of which eight will be luxury suites. The main novelty in the proposal will be the recovery of guest rooms that had been turned into living rooms.

Straight from Fuengirola is home to a large Finnish community, one documentary in her native Finland and HER story sees her survive tragedy, heartache and a terrible accident that changed her life forever. Jaana grew up around horses and when her father tragically died most of his horses were sold. Undeterred, she followed him into the family business of owning restaurants and became an equestrian entrepreneur. On a competition day in 2004, Jaana travelled to a showjumping event, in Hamina, taking five horses. She struggled with the transporter in poor conditions on a bumpy road and when asked to park on a rocky slope she was hesitant, but managed. Hearing a loud bang as the carrier hit a bump in the road she immediately got out to check. Oil was leaking from the back, Jaana stepped onto the bumper and disengaged the safety chain so she could check on the horses. It would be the last time she would ever stand on her own two feet.

ed in a scream. She could not feel her legs and as it sank in she realised she was paralysed. The platform had cut her spinal cord, two vertebrae were completely shattered as were her ribs and
her lung had collapsed. She was rushed into surgery and two titanium beams were mounted and screwed into her spine. Jaana spent two months in the hospital before she was moved to a rehabilitation centre where she had to learn to fend for herself. The most daunting part was learning to use a wheelchair, which she hated, a constant reminder of her paralysis which she had still not come to terms with. Jaana pushed on for riding therapy and after a time it became smoother. She began working hard in the gym to build up her strength. She often tried to move her feet in vain, hoping that one day they would spring back into action like the rest of her body. That day never came. Taking part in her first disabled dressage competition over a year after the accident she had two helpers to assist her. One to warm up the horse for 30 minutes before the race so the horse is ready to run and another to help her mount the horse and keep her in place. In 2009 she won silver in the Nordic and European Championship. Followed by seventh place in the London 2012 Paralympics, two gold medals in 2016 and
various different medals over the next few years culminating in a gold for this year’s Nordic and Baltic Championship. Last year she was approached by a documentary filming company requesting to follow her competitions around the world. It was shown on TV and dazzled by the story of survival and strength, a group of filmmakers contacted her with a pitch for a feature-length movie based on her life. The film ‘Aika jonka sain’ is set for release in March 2020. On visiting Fuengirola last summer she realised that the warm weather would allow her to train all year. She is still in pain but refuses to stop. She has the added fear that if she cannot find sponsorship she will not be able to compete in France in January which will then not give her enough points to make it to her goal of the Tokyo Paralympics next year. Through the underlying pain and frustrations, Jaana still manages to appear upbeat. Humble that her important story is being told she plans to write an autobiography when she finally manages to take a break. She is keen to put the story in her own words... or straight from the horse’s mouth as some might say.

Fruits of corruption BUILDING work has begun at the new Official Language School in Marbella. Mayor Angeles Muñoz announced an investment of €1.1 million has been made and the academy will be operational for the 2020/2021 school year. Funds for the project were recovered from judicial proceedings for corruption. The language school will be moved from the old school of Santa Teresa dating back to the 60’s to new municipal premises located on Alfredo Palma Avenue. The building will be over 1,000 square metres in size, which will allow a larger number of students to join the academy. Languages such as Russian will also be
included, following demand in an international city like Marbella. Current facilities had become obsolete and did not meet accessibility criteria required of public spaces. Building work has a 12-month deadline, with is hoped to be reduced down to nine months. Marbella’s academy employs 22 teachers and has 1,700 students enrolled in the five languages they offer: French, German, English, Arabic and Spanish. This is the first project that will be carried out with the more than €30 million recovered in 2018 from corruption cases.

Cancer workshops H O S P I TA L C O S TA D E L SOL, in Marbella, recently held a class for patients with breast cancer in which a group of professionals and those who had already gone through the disease offered guidance and advice on how to deal with it.
The workshops will continue and aim to become an exchange of information and experiences between both groups, with the aim of improving the quality of life of those diagnosed with breast cancer. Patients can establish an action plan to develop in their daily lives by addressing issues such as food, physical exercise, rest and what
medication they can take during chemotherapy, all explained without technical jargon and in understandable language. This initiative has taken place due to the success of previous classes held by the hospital for patients suffering from chronic obstructive disease, heart disease and anticoagulation.

Cornering the market DIGITALISATION is the way forward for Marbella’s Central Market. The market will participate in a new digitalisation project promoted by the Ministry of Economy that will be financed with European funds. The project will have zero cost for the city council and hopes to promote innovation and improve competitiveness. Municipal spokesperson Félix Romero, announced that the commercial market has been chosen alongside another 25 installations in Andalucia. El Palo in Malaga and Ronda have also been selected to form part of the project. European funds will pay in full for the programme called ‘Digitalise your market,’ that will provide a new exciting touristic offer. The initiative will start with an analysis to redesign the brand and create its own social media and website. Local government’s priority is to enhance the market as the main tourist offer in the Old Town and city centre.

Metro chugs along AFTER a time-consuming process to move walls from the Muslim period, workers at Malaga Metro are finally finishing up. The process of extraction and conservation of the archaeological remains will be complete before the end of the year. Building work on the metro in Malaga has been completely paralysed since the remains from the 12th century were found. The section of metro between Maria Zambrano train station and Calle Larios has been continually paused as historical artefacts have been discovered. Now, after months of work by El Corte Ingles department store, the assembly of the metal structure to lift the findings will begin. The Ministry of Culture has worked on conserving the parts of the remains that could be salvaged. Sources close to the project have explained the same

A frame with the same dimensions as the tunnel will be lowered underground with a crane. Once everything is in place, the vertical remains will be carefully extracted. The Junta of Andalucia is
overseeing the process and will put the Muslim artifacts on display. The Ministry of Development has promised the complete extraction of the remains before the new year. Remarkably, the discoveries date back to the 11th and 12th century and are in a good state. Part of the remains are a
typical house during the Muslim era, that constitutes an important archaeological element. Before any further work was permitted, technicians and archaeologists had to discern what elements were ‘indispensable for the understanding of past history and cultural values.’
Experts analysed the structure to determine weak spots or fragments that were susceptible to breakage. These parts of the remains have been covered with polyurethane foam and confined between boards for transport. With this advance, the completion of the metro line is hoped to continue forward.

Fire brigade receives two new vehicles LIKE its compatriots in Fuengirola, the Marbella Council has been working closely with Caixabank to obtain financial assistance to improve its fleet of fire engines. It has therefore committed to spend just over €1 million in order to purchase via lease, two new all-purpose vehicles which will be particularly useful in fighting forest fires. They are intended to replace two tenders which are each nearly 30 years old and will ensure that the fire brigade is better equipped to cope with future problems. These vehicles each carry 4,000 litres of water and are able to transport
three firefighters quickly and safely to any flashpoint. This is part of a longterm plan to improve the quality of the service and will see repairs and upgrades to existing vehicles including a bowser which can hold 8,000 litres as well as another vehicle which will be used by the underwater rescue unit. Other new vehicles will be purchased as needed and a further 14 new firefighters are being recruited who should be trained by the end of this year, followed by a further five in 2020 alongside several new managers who will work within a new organisational structure.

HRH Princes Michael of Kent laying her wreath.
Laying wreaths at the entrance to Parliament.
Remembrance Day is always special in Gibraltar by John Smith THIS year’s Remembrance Day Service in Gibraltar was particularly poignant for a number of reasons, especially as for the first time, a representative of the Territory was invited to the Cenotaph to lay a wreath on behalf of Gibraltar. Prior to this, the traditional annual poppy football match took place at Victoria Stadium on November 9 where veterans Prince of Wales beat Britannia 5 - 4. There are three services in Gibraltar
on Remembrance Sunday, the first at the Parliament Building where the Governor, members of Government, religious leaders and representatives of the community lay wreaths to celebrate Armistice Day. Then the next is held at the British War Memorial followed by the third at the American War Memorial. Members of the Armed Forces based in Gibraltar were joined by members of the Royal Gibraltar Defence Force as well as veterans who live on the Rock and many who travel in from Spain. Others who attended included those still alive who were evacuated to Ja-
maica, Madeira and the UK as Gibraltar became a fortress during the Second World War. One notable visitor was HRH Princess Michael of Kent who although on a private visit, was invited to lay her own wreath. The Rock was an ideal backdrop for a symbol of a single soldier reversing arms in honour of those who have passed beyond. For so many years, Gibraltar has been associated with all areas of the Armed Forces as well as the Merchant Navy and the airport is still under the control of the Ministry of Defence.

Temperatures take a turn SPAIN has started to feel the chill and thermometers are slowly creeping down. Now, a polar blast is heading for the peninsula and is bringing wind and rain along for the ride. The Meteorological Agency has warned that winter has definitely come early and temperatures will be four to 10 degrees lower than the usual November weather. The country will be braced for strong winds and frosty evenings as today - Thursday, November 14 - will see storms marking their arrival. Heavy rains will affect most of the peninsula, with the exceptions of Almeria, Murcia and Valencia. Choppy seas and big waves will be seen on the coast and even snow could fall on mountainous areas. There is no doubt that the time to wrap up warm has come early! At Euro Weekly we wanted to know how the Costa del Sol had reacted to this icy news. Jacket in hand, we hit the streets and reminded our readers to get their winter coats and scarves out!
How are you finding the cooler weather? What will you be doing to keep warm this winter? • Mr and Mrs Hopkins from Nottinghamshire have been holidaying on the Costa del Sol for many years and said they were feeling a slight chill. “We have been coming here for seven years. It’s definitely cooler than normal. But we are well prepared.” The couple had made sure to bring some warm clothes along and explained that weather in the UK had been disastrous. “There has been a lot of flooding back home. And it’s freezing! Around five or six degrees. Maybe jets streams are bringing the colder weather over.” Mr and Mrs Hopkins weren’t worried about the incoming cold as they were staying in a nice hotel on the promenade. “It’s a lovely hotel, really good. We just hope it doesn’t rain!” • A Local resident spends his time between the Costa del Sol and Ireland. He wasn’t too worried about the weather “It’s colder than usual, but not much. It is November! In Ireland it’s very wet and cold.” To keep warm, our reader gave us some advice “I own my own house here. To heat it up I use electric heaters, but electricity is very expensive here. The best idea is to invest in double glazing. When I bought the house, I put in all new windows and insulated the property that way.” • Tim and Jill from Dorset have visited the area before but never in November. “It’s quite chilly. We’ve never been here at this time of year before and we aren’t quite prepared.” Jill said “I only bought a cardigan and really I needed a light jacket.”As we spoke the wind subsided slightly and the sun peeped out from behind the clouds.

the sea and will be returning again in January. “It’s been very stormy and they say it’s coming to Spain. We are staying in a hotel this time. When we came in June, we rented an apartment. But we always prefer hotels for colder weather, it’s much better.” • A Couple from the Netherlands were enjoying a relaxing walk along the beachfront. They travel to Fuengirola a lot and seemed unbothered by the nippy wind. “The weather is perfect for us and we are prepared.” Euro Weekly asked the northern couple for some tips to keep warm “We aren’t using any heating at the moment. We are here for two months and are staying in an apartment, but there is air conditioning in case we need it. The best thing is to wear warm clothes and keep them layered.” They added with a laugh “And to keep everything closed! If it’s cold shut all the windows and doors, so many people just leave balconies open and then say they are cold!”

I won’t be going to the beach though.” Martin had made sure to put s ome thing warmer on. “We are going to M ija s for the da y, s o I’ve put on a jumper.

ESTEPONA has made a move towards an ecofriendly future with solar powered lighting. The town hall has opted to install LED lighting connected to solar panels. More than 100 units will be installed in the first phase of the project. This new lighting will be used in different parts of the city and will cut CO2 emissions down by 18 tonnes. The pioneering lighting system will continue the plan to reduce energy consumption and look after the environment. Deputy mayor in charge of Services - Blas Ruzafa - has announced 106 units will be installed in the city centre and outskirts. Ruzafa explains that electricity will be generated by solar panels attached to the lights. The LEDs have a sensor that can detect ambient light and will turn on and off accordingly. Another benefit is their longer product life, that can last up to five years. And their easy set up that requires no wiring to the electricity supply. All these beneficial characteristics will lead to savings for the city and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 18 tonnes. The first phase will see 5,900 lights replaced by more efficient LEDs that will save approximately €160,000 in electricity bills.
Almeria in London ALMERIA has its eye on reinforcing and expanding its share of the British tourist market. A delegation from the Provincial Tourist Service was in London this week to promote Almeria at the World Travel Market, considered one of the most important travel trade shows in Europe. There was a 550sqm Costa de Almeria stand within the Andalucia exhibition area, and over the three days the Diputacion de Almeria Tourism delegate Fernando Gimenez met with travel agents, airlines, marketing companies, travel media and tour operators with a view to boosting British visitor numbers. The deputy referred to the provincial government’s “ambitious promotion campaign with which we want to intensify this market and clear up any doubts which the Brexit situation or the Thomas Cook case generate.” He said the delegation had gone to London “with the hope of offering confidence and convinced of the virtues of the Costa de Almeria destination, which continues to be one of the British’s favourites. “Our presence here generates numerous commercial opportunities which we have to take advantage of so they are to the benefit of Almeria Province as a tourist destination.”
THE Diputación de Malaga has approved the proposal of €1.9 million worth of projects designed to improve the facilities on the region. The Governing Board of the Diputación de Malaga has approved the projects which cover 11 municipalities in the province and focused on the towns that have less than 20,000 residents. The total investment is funded by the provincial institution within the Plan of Assistance and Cooperation and will aim to provide improvements to the towns’ streets and access and the remodelling of municipal swimming pools. One of the largest beneficiaries is La Viñuela which will receive a total of €499,353 to improve the southern access to the area. Works have already begun on improving the road and infrastructure, but the investment will ensure that the third and fourth stages are able to be completed. Riogordo will receive €320,380 to refurbish their swimming pool, whilst Torrox will get €269,252 for the El Peñoncillo area of the N-340. Other municipalities that look forward to improvement projects are Sayalonga, Periana, Alcaucin and Molino Barco. Outside of Axarquia, Antequera has been approved to continue the works in Sierra de Yeguas, for the development of the fifth and sixth phase of urbanisation and paving of the Avenida Fuente de Piedra.

Funding for floods THE Council of Ministers has authorised a payment of €18 million in aid for the damages caused by the severe floods which ravaged the Llevant area in Mallorca last year. Pedro Sánchez, the acting Prime Minister of Spain, took advantage of his electoral rally in Palma last week to make the announcement. Accompanied by PSOE colleagues, the mayor of Palma and members of Congress, Sánchez confirmed that the state will cover a large proportion of the costs which were spent to repair the infrastructure and public facilities in the affected municipalities. The floods of October 9 constitute as one of the most serious tragedies caused by rain to take place in Spain over the last 25 years. Claiming the lives of 13 people and injuring several others, numerous houses and roadways were also left severely damaged. In the days after the flooding, it is reported that authorities removed over 4,200 tons of rubble and debris, carrying out 23 actions on the roads. Sant Llorenç was the worst affected town, with Artà, Manacor, Capdepera and Son Servera also suffering huge devastation. The impact of the downpour was exacerbated by geography, infrastructure and the difficulty of forecasting the disaster. Experts at the State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) estimated that a torrential rain of this magnitude only repeats itself once in every 1,000 years.

Brexit cash-flow fears
SMALL British manufacturers have suffered cash flow problems due to Brexit or rather the lack of it. When one considers that Brexit has become a movable feast, it has to be remembered that the government has accepted and even warned that there could be significant delays or shortages in many areas especially if there had been a no deal Brexit. Companies have therefore needed to stockpile certain mate rial such as parts for machinery and raw material to allow them
By John Smith to continue in business in the event that Britain crashed out of the EU. Now with the possible delay until the end of January, the fact that there could be a change of government which could still re sult in a Hard Brexit, no Brexit or further delay, those businesses are in something of a quandary as to what they should do in the in terim. Their problem is that the im
ports that they have purchased are not only taking up valuable space, but are a drain on their fi nances and although they will no doubt be able to use all of this material in the longterm, it won’t be much use if they run out of money to stay solvent. Alternatively, if they do sud denly experience a run of orders due to the delay and retailers or distributors suddenly stocking up whilst they can, there will be the further conundrum of whether to import new raw materials or not.
LEGALLY SPEAKING Can he get escritura? Some years ago I purchased a plot of land by a private contract with the seller. I could not register the plot in the Land Registry in my name because it was part of a double plot which had not yet been ‘segregated’ or officially subdivided. The sale was declared, however, and the Andalucian transfer tax was paid. Now the land has been official ly subdivided but the seller refuses to go to the no tary to sign a proper ‘escritura,’ the official title deed. How can I get the title deed and what can I do if the seller, still being the registered owner, sells the plot again? K V R (Costa del Sol)
DAVID SEARL
The pri vate con YOU AND THE tract implies the LAW IN SPAIN seller’s obligation to sign a proper ti tle deed at the notary even if it does not specifically state this. If the seller proves obstinate, he is in viola tion of the law and any Spanish court will rule against him. If your seller should sell the property again, he has breached his contract and you can recover the property. We urge you to instruct a lawyer to make sure you act in the most effective manner.

Cuban defence
IT is no secret that since the re duction in tension between the USA and Cuba during the Obama administration that the Spanish government has been encourag ing companies to become in volved in the Cuban economy. Now, that Donald Trump has activated the 1996 HelmsBurton Act, there is a possibility that Spanish companies may be sued for their activities within the Caribbean nation. There may be as many as 16 Spanish companies including Iberostar, Melia, BBVA bank which could be targeted, but Spain has warned that it will chal lenge any and all lawsuits that may arise.

Trusting Spain to help By John Smith THE Amazon Group is increasing its investment in Spain by an estimat ed €2.5 billion by opening three new data centres in its fight against Microsoft and Google. A subsidiary, Amazon Web Ser vices (AWS) which is involved with Cloud storage is the vehicle being used for this expansion which will take place in Aragon and will be ideally placed to serve all of the main business areas in Spain. Whilst it is primarily an Amazon project, it does already supply ser vices to a number of Spanish com panies such as Mapfre, Endesa and

More delay, more cost THE London Crossrail project which is planned to connect Reading with Shenfield and is partially open has taken another hit and will not be completed until 2021. To add to the problems of what
is currently Europe’s biggest infrastructure scheme which should have been completed by December 2018 is that it is also believed costs are in the region of £650 million (€715 million) over the re-
vised budget. The original targeted cost for what will be known as the Elizabeth Line was £15.9 billion (€18.25 billion) and is now likely to reach £18.25 billion (€21 billion).
BBVA and once the centres are open, they will have the capacity and reach to service most of south ern Europe. This will be the seventh Euro pean centre of its type to be opened, after existing divisions in Ireland, the United Kingdom, Swe den and France, with Italy also planned. Its two biggest competitors do not have similar centres in Spain which increases the AWS opportu nity as experts say that it is impor tant that companies have the op tion to store information on the Cloud through locally based opera tions. Already one of the three most profitable companies in the world, Amazon has expanded quite quickly within Spain with its online sales services and warehouses and cur rently employs almost 5,000 work ers and has invested in excess of €1 billion to date. With the new centres expected to be open by late 2022 or early 2023, the employment prospects which will include large numbers of workers constructing the buildings just continue to expand.

Heritage under threat? LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT WHEN is all this ridiculous, upsetting and often downright insulting reversed racism going to stop? How long will it take for the authorities to gather the courage to persecute the minority whingers with the same fervour and enthusiasm they seem to reserve for the victimised majori ties, who are having to watch almost everything that comes out of their mouths in case it ‘of fends’ someone? Just recently we had that awful British hating Afua Hirsch, who complained that white models should not adopt Afro hair styles because it was trying to ‘steal black culture.’ Nothing of course was mentioned of the thou sands of hair dressing salons earning fortunes by straightening, and thereby westernising, the no toriously difficult hair of black ladies the world over! This week has been no exception to the ex ponents of this onesided attitude, which, if they’re not careful, will turn us all into racists. The small and pretty town of Bideford has for years been referred to as ‘Little White Town.’ This title stretches back to the 1850s when the

town, endeavouring to repel the scourge of cholera, had all its houses painted white and cov ered in ash. Apparently during this period, it was referred to by author Charles Kingsley in his book Westward Ho, as a ‘little white town.’ Over the years, the name has become a part of its heritage and is proudly displayed on a num
ber of public notices and postings. Yes, you’ve guessed it. There has now been a complaint that the name is racist! What is even more annoying, is that it appears there were actually only a cou ple of dissenters, but in the usual ‘minority ap peasement’ mode that seems to prevail over our once great country, the town council has de
creed that the name be changed in case they ap peared to be advocating ‘white supremacy.’ You really couldn’t make it up could you? Once again the British culture and heritage is being threatened by PC people, who are in fact the biggest racists of all. I mean where does it all end? How long will it be before anything referred to as white offends some bigot or another? I do actually recall, that at the end of apartheid in South Africa, it was somewhat frowned upon to ask for a white coffee and more socially ac ceptable to request a coffee with milk! Will Whitechapel one day be referred to as Grey chapel? Whitehaven become Greenhaven? Will it be the Purple Cliffs of Dover welcoming the ille gal immigrant paddling across the English Chan nel? Why don’t we expunge the word from the dictionaries altogether? For heavens and all our sakes, when is some one going to get a grip and say enough is enough? The UK is already one of the most wel coming and politically correct places on the plan et. What do these bigots actually want? Will they ever be happy? If nothing is ever going to please them would it not be a better idea to find somewhere else that does? Dream on Leapy. Keep the faith Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com

The scandals just won’t die NORA JOHNSON
BREAKING VIEWS Nora is the author of popular psychological suspense and crime thrillers and a freelance journalist. To comment on any of the issues raised in her column, go to www.euroweeklynews.com/3.0.15/nora-johnson
THE head of an FE college spent £150,000 in four years on her corporate credit card, buying lobster dinners, hiri n g c h a u ff e u r s , s t a y i n g i n five-star hotels and flying first class. Stella Mbubaegbu, principal of Highbury College, Portsmouth, spent the money when the college w a s m a k i n g re d u n d a n c i e s and its Ofsted rating was falling from ‘outstanding’ to ‘requires improvement.’ The mind boggles at yet another example of financial ineptitude and claims based on entitlement, togeth er with an apparent lack of account ability, control or authorisation more of a gravy plane than a gravy train? It seems both the running and governance of some FE colleges just like those unis mired in expenses scandals we already know about
CREDIT: More expenses scandals. are equally questionable. And what about schools? I read about one that was taken out of local authority control and made into an academy. First thing the head did was to award himself an 18 per cent pay rise, his deputy a 5 per cent rise and the staff nothing. Subsequently, the school performed less well than under the local authority. Progress,eh? It’s sad that many of the people I regarded as pillars of the community when I was growing up school/col lege principals, police officers, politi cians (with their General Election ‘pledges’) now appear to have lost the concept of selfless public service. And yet no one seems to have
learned anything from their miscon duct! There’s nothing but hot air, lip service and a stubborn refusal to face up to reality followed by phras es like ‘we’ve all learned the lessons,’ ‘we’ve moved on,’ ‘the system’s been overhauled.’ Or, when wrongdoing’s uncov ered, phrases like: ‘it’s only a few’ who make ‘mistakes.’ Well, why are the majority so incompetent or not up to dealing with ‘the few’ when it routinely happens? Shouldn’t repeat ed wrongdoing ring alarm bells? I know I bang on about unwarrant ed expenses, the NHS, the police ser vice and so on. My rationale is that by drawing repeated attention to these issues can there be any hope of change. Truth stranger than fiction? You couldn’t make it up.

It’s not just the wine... ONE single word in Spanish conjures up only one image... and that word is Rioja. And with Rioja comes the fine wines that are made in the region in Spain that bears its name. The wine is produced from grapes harvested in both the autonomous communities of La Rio ja and Navarre and the Basque province of Ala va. Rioja itself is divided into three zones known as Rioja Alta, Rioja Baja and Rioja Alavesa, and a significant number of the famous wines from the region are blended from fruit grown in all three. La Rioja is located south of the Cantabrian Mountains along the River Ebro, and benefits from a typical continental climate with the mountains helping to protect the many vine yards from the fierce winds. The name Rioja is believed to have taken its name from the River Oja (Rio Oja), and most of the area is situated on a plateau around 460 metres (1,500 feet) above sea level. Yes, wine is the dominating feature of La Rioja not a sur
prise when you consider there are over 500 wineries but as well as wine tasting (and buy ing the odd crate to sample at a later date) a vis it to the region also offers a wide range of other activities. The more adventurous can take part in horseriding, hotair ballooning and quad biking, whereas the more relaxed can investigate La Ri oja’s links to the Saint James pilgrim route. De clared as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO, the Santo Domingo de la Calzada and its cathedral, San Millán de la Cogolla, site of the Suso and Yu so monasteries, are known for being the birth place of the first written words in Spanish. The unbeatable combination of culture and wine makes the La Rioja region a place not to miss out on. Add to that the forest areas, lunar landscapes and mountainous areas there is every opportu nity for some spectacular photography.

EVERY year thousands of expats realise their dream as they buy their ‘Place in the Sun.’ Living in Spain can be liberating for them as they adapt to the more relaxing, laid back lifestyle. What very few people warn them about, however, is the winter! Most Spanish houses are not built with win ter in mind, and most hardy northern Euro peans think ‘How bad could it be?’ To which the answer is: ‘Pretty bad!’ Over 10 years ago Richard and Tony were in the same situation. Having recently moved to Spain, they were fruitlessly looking for a decent home heating solution for their two families when, by chance, Tony discov ered a Norwegian convector heater that was unavailable in Spain. Already using electric heaters, Tony was amazed at the efficiency of the Norwegian heaters, joking that it was now costing him less to keep his family warm than it had been costing to keep them cold! A general lack of insulation means that Spanish homes can be like an ice block once the sun goes down at night, and the chatter ing of teeth from frozen new expats can be heard like cicadas! However, you need not despair, the solution is at hand, and you do not need to reinvent the wheel. The real secret of these heaters is the computerage technology in the form of ex truded aluminium in the construction of the heating element. This material and the de sign creates a huge surface area for heat transfer, which means more air can be heat

Glimpse of the Interior of Aston Martin’s DBX
NICK HORNE’S Rich Pick INTO a crowded some say saturated market Aston Martin will launch its first Sports Utility Vehicle. The launch will be on November 20, 2019 in Beijing, China. The launch price of the SUV by the British marque has been confirmed at €193,500 plac ing the SUV well into the luxury bracket of on road or indeed offroad vehicles. As the DBX is an Aston Martin the emphasis is on the Sport of the SUV. The wheel base; the distance be tween the front pair and the rear pair, is set to permit the design team to maintain a low and sleek profile while expanding the interior vol ume of the cabin. More than six months of the design team’s time was spent refining the dri ver’s position within the SUV. The seating posi tion delivers a clear view of the bonnet to give confidence when manoeuvring in tight posi tions with cars. The objective, to offer a cabin that gives the driver an instant and relaxed confidence and offering a promise of dynamic performance as well as clear lines of sight. Moving from the driver’s seat to a dash board which accentuates the sense of space and luxury. Each button and dial has been posi tioned with care and following extensive test ing to achieve the aim of instant familiarity.

Neater Heaters use convection principles and are designed so that the electricity you put into the heater is converted to heat as cheaply as possible. When you turn on the heater the element warms up rapidly and heats the air around it, this air rises and draws more cold air into the heater. Because the element is extremely efficient and is designed to have a huge surface area a large quantity of air is heated very quickly. If your room has the correct sized heater it will take about 20 minutes to warm up from cold, after which the heater eases off and works at about two thirds capacity, (depending on various exter nal influences). There is a model that will suit everyone, whether it is the standard Adax Heater, or two of their bestselling models, the BEHA, and the NEO which now come with integrat ed WiFi, so that you can control your heaters easily via a WiFi APP, but still being

1.5litre bottle or a precious handbag; neither of which would benefit from rolling about on the possibly muddy floor. The passengers have been a central concern of the design team from the outset. The brief was to achieve an in clusive feeling, not to have the passengers feel that they were leaning over those in the front seats of the SUV. Smaller people children were also brought in to the picture with a group of children sharing their experiences and views of entering and leaving an ergonomic assessment test article at the company’s design studio.

YOUR STARS
TIME OUT ‘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.’
FOR NEXT 7 DAYS AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) There is a wonderful enthusiasm about you at the moment. Seeing the reaction of others to you, it occurs that you should have taken this attitude before. Therefore, make a resolution to put more energy into everything that you do. The rewards are both social and financial.
PISCES (February 20 - March 20) Something new which you started in recent weeks becomes more than a passing interest. Although it may be surprising to you, it is owing to a predictable situation. In opening your mind, you also seem to have opened your heart. Many people do that at this time of the year and so you are not alone. Trusting is sometimes difficult but it must happen sometime.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20) Being totally inspired this week, you could be tempted to let enthusiasm run away with you. It is a lovely feeling, like being a child again. Be sure to have fun, but do keep as much money in your pocket as possible. With many demands at the moment, restrict your exuberance on finances.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) There will be a certain amount of discussion regarding holiday plans. You know what you want but how do you persuade others? It's quite easy really. All you have to do is to get someone else to suggest a certain place.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) You are so sharp that there is a danger you will cut yourself! Seriously, though, try not to appear pompous over a certain matter. You may be right and you may be clever, but smarty pants are rarely popular. Some of that sharpness gets things going for you in the love department.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) With everyone busy round you, the chance may be taken to show what you are capable of. Instead of watching someone make a pig's ear of a work project, offer to help. It's important to let them think any bright ideas were theirs.
LEO (July 24 - August 23) A business partnership takes on a romantic tinge this week. It is possible that the other party sees this as more significant than you. To avoid problems later it would be best to let them do all the running.
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) Your outgoing attitude is spot on. Some may say you are a little crazy, the way you go for things. Each person has their own way and yours can be quite unique but that certainly does not make it wrong. People who make the world around us that little bit more colourful are gems.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) Some legal matters need your attention. That's not really what you want at this time of the year. A decision has to be made and it needs a fine balance. Asking others may just confuse matters, so only seek expert advice. At the end of the day, you will know what is both best and acceptable.
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) A last-minute invitation turns out to be just the ticket in more ways than one. An invitation to join a holiday may be proffered. This is unusual, certainly, but keep an open mind. Your company is clearly well appreciated so why not make that a point of pride? Let's face it, who is best equipped to blow your trumpet?

As you are very much in the limelight, it comes as no great surprise that admiration comes your way. What may surprise you, however, is the direction it comes from. Who would have thought that such a situation would arise? Strange things happen sometimes.

BIRTHDAYS
BOXING’S self proclaimed ‘Gypsy King’ Tyson Fury allows us into his private wold with his new autobiography ‘Behind the Mask.’ The boxing champ is no stranger to chaos whether it be in the ring or out of it. Following drink and drug problems which led him to contemplate suicide he began rehabilitation and in November 2015, he defeated Wladimir Klitschko to become the world heavyweight champion of WBA. The first to agree he is a flawed character, he has admitted he suffers from his own mental health issues and obsessive-compulsive disorders. Outside of the ring, Fury is a mental health ambassador and donated his million-dollar purse from a fight to the homeless. The fighter takes us back to his humble traveler beginnings and guides us on a journey to great success.

OUR VIEW
Views expressed and opinions given are not necessarily those of the EWN publishers. No responsibility is accepted for accuracy of information, errors, omissions or statements.
A solution needed HOMELESSNESS has travelled the Atlantic Ocean and has expanded across Europe. The US has always been known for unacceptably high numbers of people living on the streets. The way of life in the capitalist hub has never been easy for those who couldn’t keep up and estimates state that 129,972 people are homeless in California alone. In Europe, vagrancy is rising and is in need of an immediate solution. Charity Shelter calculated that around 300,000 people lived on the streets in the UK. As of March 2019, 32,740 households were considered homeless and 126,020 children were living in temporary housing like B&Bs or hostels. The situation in Spain is also worsening as house and rent prices soar. Around 31,000 people are homeless and numbers are set to increase. It’s getting more common to come across people sleeping rough at night and to find areas taken over by vagrants. Article 47 in the Spanish Constitution states that Spanish citizens have the right to enjoy decent and adequate housing. It also adds that public authorities will promote the necessary conditions to enforce this right. Although homelessness is less prominent in Spain, it still constitutes a significant social issue that requires change. Migrants and young people are some of the most affected, with 30 per cent of the homeless aged between 18-29.
NEVER FORGET REMEMBRANCE DAY has always been very important to me and I always pay my re spects to those who died in the line of duty. Living abroad, I sometimes feel distanced from this tradition. It’s important that we never forget the brave men who fought for our country, and we need to pass this on to future generations. Even though we may not be living in the UK, we can still show our sup port in many ways. Thank you to the local businesses who honour the fallen and sell poppies for charity, you help us feel united as we remember our roots. I was grateful for the piece in Euro Weekly dedicated to Remembrance Day and every thing that it represents. In light of everything going on, moments like these put everything into perspective. It’s good to forget Brexit for one day and remember why I’m proud to be British. Sid Wilson
In the stars? I THINK there must be something in the stars right now, some heavenly or unheavenly in fluence that decided to punish Spain and the UK at roughly the same time with a gen eral election. Here in Spain it’s beginning to look like Groundhog Day with Pedro Sanchez try ing to form a government yet again after inconclusive results and a hung parlia ment although this time Vox will be breathing down his neck as well. Perhaps the Spanish are more fortu nate than Brits back home, though, be cause those who bothered to turn out at least knew who to vote for. It’s a relief that I’m not eligible to vote in Britain’s December elections because I wouldn’t know which of that bunch of selfserving politicians would deserve my support. Neither the government nor the oppo sition have known how to run the coun try, let alone Brexit, and it looks as though they still won’t know after December 12. Suzanne Mansell

A skincare secret
AGEING is one of our biggest beauty concerns and it can turn into the bane of our existence. With ageing comes antiageing products, de signed to tackle wrinkles and plump the skin. But with so many products and confusing terms to deal with, it isn’t easy to manage this minefield. However, there is one product that has got everybody talking. From skincare experts and beauty fanatics to dermatologists, they are all loving retinol. Retinoids have been on the scene for many years, but it’s just now that most people are taking notice. Retinol has properties that are said to reverse signs of ageing and also act as a preventive measure. The ingredient derives from Vitamin A and is found in many creams and lotions. It promotes collagen production and exfoliates the outer most layer of skin. It changes the way aged cells behave, making them act like younger cells. This results in softening, improving the texture of the skin and minimising the look of fine lines. Retinol is also good for acne scars and sun damage and can brighten the skin, giving the look of a youthful complexion. Age spots can al so be lightened with this acidic product as skin tone is evened out.
AMAZING RESULTS: Retinol is a strong product that renews skin.
That said, retinol may not be suitable for all skin types. If you suffer any conditions such as eczema or rosacea, a high strength product like this could cause further inflammation. To com bat this, adding very small amounts to your moisturiser can introduce skin slowly to the in gredient, always making sure to use SPF after wards. It is also encouraged that people without un derlying skin conditions use small amounts when starting to use retinol. Beginning by ap
plying twice a week and then gradually increas ing the quantity if skin reacts well. Applying retinol is recommended no more than three times a week. As a general rule, any retinoid creams or serums are to be used at night as they increase sensitivity to sunlight. Wearing SPF daily is essential when the ingredi ent is part of your skincare routine. And taking into account that it is a strong product; users should not use more than a peasized amount. Younger people can also use retinol but they
may not see as many benefits as someone with older skin. Never forgetting however, that pre vention is always better than cure and this product will keep skin glowy. If you are looking for a retinoid product many wellknown cosmetic companies have them on sale. Roc, Neutrogena, La RochePosay, Olay and Elizabeth Arden all have different types of retinol products. Any chemist or makeup store will probably stock this type of product in many varying forms.
THE World Health Summit in Berlin has requested governments make difficult decisions surrounding health and climate change. Three important health is sues require political deci sions to tackle the conse quences of global warming, universal coverage and in equality of access to tech nology. More than 2,400 assis tants debated these main issues of interest in the 10th anniversary of the Summit. The German capi tal has become a reference
point for discussing health and medicine. It’s a rare oc currence to see so many in vestigators rubbing shoul ders with politicians, academics, pharmaceutical companies and NGOs. President of the interna tional Summit explained that public health is an am ple subject as it is open and multicultural. The World Health Summit looks to find solutions for worldwide health issues. For people to be able to access technology needed for medical procedures, doctors and campaigners are aware political deci sions are necessary. The director for the World Health Organisation highlighted that there has never been a better time to work together and trans form the health system and care of millions of people.

AI scans for cancer ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE is now being used to detect cancer in a pi oneering procedure. A new blood test uses AI to quickly scan for brain tumours with 90 per cent ac curacy. Scientist hope that this new diagnostic tool could be used by the NHS and hospitals worldwide. Brain tumours are hard to detect and cause symptoms that can be confused with other maladies. These ambiguous symptoms in clude headaches, memory loss and vision problems, with a scan being the only way to detect the cancer ous cells. On many occasions, this can result in late diagnosis and the illness reaching advanced stages. The new test is currently being tested and is able to give doctors a result within hours. Scientists hope this system will result in more cases of early detection and successful treatment. The AI looks for the exis tence of gliomas, the most common form of brain tumours. The innovative discovery took place at the University of Edinburgh and was presented at the Cancer
EFFICIENT: The blood test could give results in mere hours. Research Institute’s annual confer ence in Glasgow. In the UK, more than 9,000 peo ple have brain tumours detected, of which around half are cancerous, with a similar number of cases in Spain. Figures reveal only 15 per
cent of these patients survive five or more years after their diagnosis. And a staggering 62 per cent of peo ple are diagnosed in the emergency ward, even though they might have visited their GP beforehand. However, if the test ends up be
ing used in hospitals, a larger num ber of people could be tested and detection could skyrocket. Scientists working on the AI predict that the test could reach public clinics within 18 months. Currently, the blood test has been trialled on 400 people
with signs of tumours. The test cor rectly identified 40 people with can cer and 82 per cent of total cancers, giving it a high accuracy rating. One of the benefits of the new tool, is how simple and straightfor ward the test is. The Artificial Intelli gence program runs on a laptop and takes a small amount of time. It us es a technique called infrared spec troscopy that reads the chemical compounds in blood. Once the blood has been extract ed, AI analyses the results and looks for patterns that could indicate a tu mour, indicating if the patient needs a scan to confirm the pres ence of cancer. For health services, it would mean giving a simple blood test to patients before having to do a time consuming scan and the process of detection and referral for brain scans would be more efficient. Investigators are now looking to run further tests to get the system implanted. A trial will be performed on 600 British patients who are cur rently awaiting a brain scan.

As a chef I need to plan ahead for each month and my plans for Christmas will include some gluten free options for the first time this year. Many people are gluten free these days it seems. A percentage of them will not be totally gluten intolerant and many might just enjoy the lifestyle of eating food without flour. Gluten intolerance is a disease called Celiac disease. If a celiac eats the tiniest morsel of wheat it will trigger an immune response in their small intestine. Over time, this reaction damages their small intestine’s lining and prevents it from ab sorbing some nutrients (malab sorption). The intestinal damage then often causes diarrhoea, fa tigue, weight loss, bloating and
anaemia, and it can lead to seri ous complications. There’s no cure for celiac dis ease but for most people, follow ing a strict glutenfree diet can help manage symptoms and for those reasons we take it very seri ously at The Little Geranium and even have a separate section of the kitchen so that no cross conta mination from wheat is possible. One of our close friends, Olivia is a young lawyer living over here on the coast who adores great food but told me once that she could not eat out as often as she liked because most of the Spanish restaurants did not take her ill ness seriously or did not under stand it. “Come to me,” I said and she did and from that day on she has been a regular diner and a good friend. In fact, her illness has made us all think about how we could improve things for other gluten free diners and so we started making gluten free breads, desserts and pastries. It’s not much different in taste so if we don’t get asked for gluten free, we use it for the normal
CLOSE FRIENDS: Olivia and Steven.
menu and no one ever knows! For example, my homemade walnut and almond bread made with al
mond flour is delicious and so is my gluten free pastry that wraps around Galician beef to make
beef wellington. I make a chocolate brownie sponge using rice flour and we never use flour in any of our sauces, we follow traditional re duction of the stocks so that no unnatural thickening is required. So, Olivia has helped us to focus more on this and become more aware of using flour when we don’t really need to. Wheat flour is basically a cheap way of thick ening or holding ingredients to gether. A sauce or cake doesn’t necessarily need wheat flour; oth er better and more flavoursome substitutes can be easily found. However, Christmas always seems packed with wheat flour! Sausage rolls, Christmas cake, Turkey gravy, Christmas pudding, mince pies, ginger bread biscuits for example, how can you miss out on these delicious treats? Therefore, over the next few weeks my countdown to Christ mas will include some gluten free versions of these favourites. This Gluten free Christmas pudding is to die for, so do keep the recipe or go online to www.euroweekly news.com to copy the article.

Delicious Gluten Free Christmas Pudding chopped fairly small 300g soft dark brown sugar Generous teaspoon of mixed spice (or use Chinese five spice) Pinch of Maldon salt A full wine glass of cognac (or a liqueur such as Cointreau) 6 free range eggs, beaten lightly together
MAKES enough for about 8/10 You will need two 1.5litre ceramic pud ding bowls. You’ll also need some grease proof paper, foil and kitchen string. Pudding ingredients 200g of ground almonds 60g rice flour 200g gluten free breadcrumbs 1tsp of gluten free baking powder 175g each of raisins and sultanas (washed) 100g of candied peel 2 oranges zest and juice 175g of dried cranberries 175g dried figs chopped 100 g of dried apricots chopped 100g of glace cherries chopped 100g of ginger in the syrup chopped small (but also use some of the syrup at least two tablespoons) 2 Coxtype apples, peeled, cored and
CHRISTMAS PUDDING: Flame with brandy.
Method Soak the sultanas, raisins, figs, peel, apri cots, cherries and cranberries in the brandy and the ginger syrup for a few days giving it a stir now and then. After a few days mix the ginger pieces, apples, orange juice and zest and the eggs. Add the sugar and the breadcrumbs, al mond flour and then the rice flour and mixed spice together in a bowl. Use a large mixing bowl. Simply mix all the fruit and everything else together. Stir very thoroughly.
Grease two pudding basins and divide the mix between them. Cover the puddings with greaseproof pa per. If using ceramic bowls, put on a lid of foil and tie a string handle around the top of the bowl so that you can lift it in and out of the pan. Put the pudding/s in a saucepan of boil ing water, to come 2/3 of the way up the sides of the bowl. Turn down the heat, put a lid on the saucepan and simmer for about three hours. Check that the water levels are ok too low (won’t cook properly) and not too high. The puddings are cooked when they are nicely dark. Store in a cool dark cupboard till Christ mas, then replace the foil and steam for about three hours very gently. Flame with brandy to finish and dust with icing sugar and serve with brandy cream or brandy butter.

MARBELLA MOMENTS BY NICOLE KING MANY think that Marbella Now TV is just for the English, but it’s not. It’s for everyone who speaks English as a common language to better communicate within our city. Two weeks ago we had quite a few Dutch guests; not planned as such, but very cool and this week another happy coincidence, a prominent Swedish lineup. Although I’ve saved my inter view with Karin Ehnbom Palmquist for next week’s show #MN239 we recorded her inter view together with another em blematic figurehead of our Swedish community, Monica Tinggard, current President of the Marbella branch of the Swedish Women’s Educational Association ‘SWEA.’ It never ceases to surprise me as to how many Swedes actually live in Marbella and along the Costa del Sol; officially some 40,000 as I understand it. It’s no

Hugs and happiness. wonder that this international community has its own welles tablished businesses, services and associations, often linked to and also of considerable significance to the homeland. I first met Karin back in 2017
thanks to Anita Noordzij’s intro duction when she was visiting Spain as Ambassador and General Secretary of Swedes Worldwide Svenskar I Världen to promote the interests of Swedes abroad. Not only did I get the opportu
nity and honour to enjoy another interview with Karin again last year when she paid Marbella an other visit, but I also got to inter view her husband. I really wanted to know how life had been for him as ‘husband to a Swedish Ambassador,’ fol lowing her from country to coun try throughout her official career as Ambassador to Mexico, Aus tralia and New Zealand, and also whilst she served at the Con sulate General in Chicago, the Embassy in Bonn, as head of the Swedish Information Office in New York City or when Second in Command at the Embassy in Caracas, Venezuela. Not to men tion whilst she handled being the Chief of Protocol at the Swedish Foreign Office. It couldn’t have been easy at first when it was truly a man’s world, but his pride in her accom plishments was apparent, as was his pleasure at having spent a
lifetime by her side. He is certain ly charming, interesting and has his own charismatic presence, so it is truly heartwarming that they choose Marbella to spend time together, back again this year to enjoy more sun, their friends and our city. I don’t know if it was love at first sight for Karin and her hus band but I do know that from the first moment I met her I was smit ten. She was so down to earth and open, she loves bright colours and emanates a quiet confidence that just makes you want to spend more time with her. I just had to invite her back to the show again this year for a catch up and another dose of her elegance and eloquence. If you miss the broadcasts on RTV Marbella they are available online, so you can meet these lovely Swedish ladies also simply by surfing!

BARRY DUKE IT was one of those ‘gosh, how time flies’ confabs that normally bore the hell out of me. But on this occasion I was the one who sparked the discussion when a friend said how sad it was that Cameron Boyce, loveable star of the Disney Channel franchise Descendants and the TV series Jessie had tragically ‘passed away’ aged just 20 earlier this year. As someone who dislikes eu phemisms with a passion, I snapped: ‘He didn’t pass away. He died!’ And, to emphasise my hatred of phrases used to disguise uncomfortable truths, I quoted the hilarious ex change between John Cleese and Michael Palin in Monty Python’s fa mous ‘Dead Parrot’ sketch. Returning the bird to Palin’s pet shop, Cleese says: ‘It’s bleed in’demised. It’s passed on. This parrot is no more … It’s rolled down the cur tain and joined the choir invisible. This is an exparrot!’ The only euphemism not used to describe the deceased bird with its ‘beautiful plumage’ was ‘it’s now

CAMERON BOYCE: Tragically died at the age of 20 earlier this year. with Jesus.’ Cleese an avowed athe ist should have included that line to wind up the godly in general and Christian antiblasphemy campaigner Mary Whitehouse archenemy of the corporation in particular. ‘Wow,’said the fella with whom I was chatting. ‘I remember that sketch like it was yesterday. Twenty five years, ago, wasn’t it?’ I pointed out that in fact it was 50 years ago. Predictably, he said ‘gosh,
how time flies.’ I then rattled off a number of other euphemisms that profoundly irritate me. The worst has to be ‘enhanced interrogation,’ a term used by Dick Cheney, George W Bush’s Vice Presi dent from 2001 to 2009, to describe something he clearly approved of: torture. This is a perfect example of what Quentin Crisp, English writer, actor, raconteur and gay icon called ‘un
pleasant truths wearing diplomatic cologne.’ Another is ‘collateral damage,’ a term adopted by the US military in the mid 20th century to describe un intentional damage or deaths that occur in battle. The Phrase Finder website says: ‘Only the US military, with their repu tation of obfuscation, could translate ‘innocent people were killed’ into ‘damage was caused nearby’.’
While I greatly appreciate folk not beating about the bush, I detest those who use outrageous hyperbole to overstate various issues. Cue the imbecile Donald Trump. When Abu Bakr alBaghdadi died last month, Trump sounded like a bom bastic playground bully when he de clared the terrorist was ‘whimpering and crying and screaming all the way’ to his death. I shuddered when I heard the vile narcissist’s gleeful and ghoulish state ment, then wondered how he knew so much of the Daesh leader’s death so soon after it occurred. The fact is he didn’t! At the begin ning of November The Independent reported that he made the whole thing up. It reported: ‘The Secretary of Defence, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of staff and the Regional Com mander who oversaw the operation that killed the leader of Daesh all say they have no idea what the President was talking about.’ Am I surprised. Hardly. When Trump’s lips move, you can be cer tain he’s lying. By the way, the eu phemism for a lie is a ‘terminological inexactitude’ a term created by Winston Churchill in 1906.

“
Hi everybody at EWN Doggie Angells would like to thank you all for your help over the last year. We have had a great deal of success with rehoming our dogs. Sometimes dogs can be with us for long periods. It’s funny when they are adopted people often say we have been looking at this dog in the paper week after week and we kept wanting to adopt him but the time was just not right. He's still in the paper and we are now ready to have him. So that is great - patience pays off. Again thank you all, we very much appreciate all what you do for our charity. Things slow up for us in August, thank goodness it gives us time to catch up. Kind regards Denise and all at Doggie Angells.

CCCA enjoying the Winter Sunshine
Classic Car Club of Andalucía
F
OR those of us living here in beautiful Spain its been a marvellous summer that, until recently, has just gone on and on! However, there have been a few signs recently that maybe the season is changing and with it the weather. So, it was with some trepidation that members of the Classic Car Club of Andalucia prepared for their November classic car run last Saturday. About 40 cars gathered at Venta El Tunel for the traditional 10.00am breakfast where there was just a little chill in the air but nothing too serious. Venta El Tunel incidentally is just outside Malaga on the old Granada road near the Pantano. The route for the day was to head up towards the Torcal where the altitude could bring bad weather. The Club had last been here four or five years ago when, in April, there was snow falling during a serving of some chilled Fino before heading to lunch! Today wouldn’t be quite so bad but crews were, at this stage, not to know that! The registration and signing-on process was handled with great aplomb by regular helpers Angela Sharp and Marilyn MacPherson whilst members enjoyed the social intercourse that goes with a bacon sarni and a cup of hot coffee! Some new members, Carole and David Binder had arrived, perhaps wondering what it was exactly that they were getting in to, and some members that had been away for some time were returning to reacquaint themselves with the Club, Peter and Sue Cross in their Jaguar XKR and Pieter and Kay Van de Lustgraaf in their lovely 1960’s Triumph TR250 were welcomed back after a long summer away travelling. It was good to see a Dutch contingent, Danny Grietens and Arnie Hille, bring some gorgeous American muscle machinery in the form of C6 and C7 ZR Corvettes which made quite a contrast to some of the regular and perhaps more ‘conventional’ Classics! Also back were Carl and Maria Cullimore, but their lovely red 1970’s Triumph TR6 had developed an electrical malaise that morning. Rather than miss the fun, they brought Maria’s shopping Seat so that they could still participate. Life members Konrad and Judi Thomas had come over from Blighty especially to join in the fun and so had to settle for a hire car but no-one minded that. From Sweden came Jan Alvemark in his late father’s beautiful Jaguar XJ-8 which is always so graceful and can carry four people in comfort as it usually does! The writer and CCCA Club Presidente, Ian Giles,

was navigated for the day by Marilyn MacPherson. Her husband, Malcolm, had passed away three years ago leaving behind a Jaguar E-Type and a 1990’s BMW 840. Neither car had been used for some 15 or more years, so Ian has had both of these cars completely restored over the past two years and was delighted to take Marilyn, herself now a regular CCCA member, along in the BMW 840i that performed faultlessly and was thoroughly enjoyed by them both. The stunning, red Jaguar E-Type is also now ready and will be out on future CCCA events. At 11.00am, after a short drivers’ briefing, cars headed along the fabulous old road towards Casabermeja where, at several points, there are amazing views of both the Mediterranean and the Sierra Nevada mountains simultaneously. From Casabermeja the route headed towards Villanueva de la Concepción where the big climb to the top of the Torcal began. Fortunately, although the air was indeed quite a bit cooler than at the coast, there was no snow and the sun was still shining! The reward was stunning topography and terrific views of the massive rock

faces that dominate and dwarf the local countryside. Just before Antequera the route turned off left to skirt the northern part of the Torcal and then a fast run down to Valle de Abdalajis where a welcome coffee stop had been arranged. Or, mostly for the navigators, a beer stop! The Giles / MacPherson BMW 840 had kept company with the very new and very fast BMW M850i of John and Angie Lane and it was good to see both the cars together and parked together at the coffee stop. From coffee, the route was fairly simple and passed by Los Caballos near Pizarra and then through Alora, passing the old castle, before joining the main A-357 and taking the new road to bypass VillaFranco del Guadalhorce and head in to Coin. There is a quite marvel-
lous and largely undiscovered restaurant in Coin called La Bohemia. It has been there for many years and is still run by the same family. It provides outstanding food that is far and away different to what most expect from Coin and was very much appreciated by all the CCCA members and their guests. Cava and canapés were served to thirsty crews in the Cortijo on arrival and a marvellous lunch was then served. It had been a super day, a stunning route with easy driving and, perhaps more important, easy navigation. To finish this with a spectacular lunch was a fitting end and thanks were given to the organisers, Ian and Carol Giles, for making it such a great day. They even kept the good weather…!! Next events for the CCCA are the Clubnight and Christmas Party on December 3 and then a Christmas Special Car run on Saturday, December 7. I also hope to participate in, and report on, the Jaguar (JEC) run later in November. That’s it until our next issue.

BIG WIN: Burnley defeat West Ham United.
Clash of the clarets ASHLEY BARNES and Chris Wood both celebrated signing new contracts with goals that propelled Burnley to another big win over West Ham Unit ed. Last season’s Turf Moor victory over the Londoners at the turn of the year had been the launchpad for Burnley’s sprint to safety. And while the need was n’t quite so great this time around, the combination of Barnes and Wood and an owngoal from goal keeper Roberto Jimenez brought a welcome end to a threematch losing run. The Burnley strike part nership reunited follow ing Wood’s return from a twomatch absence took their combined tally for the season to 10 league goals to cap a week in which they had both ex tended their stay at Turf Moor. And in truth they could have added plenty more, notably Wood who had un
derlined his liking for this fixture with his sixth goal in five games against the Hammers, with the second goal just before half time that all but sealed the deal as he again ran the Lon doners ragged. Jimenez was at fault for all three of the Burnley goals, although it was only his acrobatics late in the piece that prevented a landslide as Sean Dyche’s side produced exactly the response they needed to record an emphatic fourth home win of the season and reclaim a place back in the top half of the table. In a bid to stop the los ing run, Dyche made three changes with fullbacks Charlie Taylor and Phil Bardsley returning along with Wood to make their first Premier League starts of the season. And Burnley wasted no time in looking to make amends for their firsthalf collapse at Sheffield Unit ed a week ago with an up
tempo opening that had the Hammers immediately on the ropes. West Ham were ab solutely shocking, Burnley came at them and totally ran the show from start to finish, West Ham’s million aire socalled stars looked lazy, not interested, had no direction from the bench and to be honest looked like a side heading to relegation. It’s evident to the major ity of West Ham support ers that the Chilean man ager Pelligrini has to be sacked but club owner David Sullivan will have a problem there as he gave the exManchester City manager a long fouryear contract on £7 million a year and no doubt will want paying off. West Ham supporters are in numbers now calling for the head of their man ager and the bookies have him odds on to be the next sacked manager in the pre miership.

Force of the Foxes LEICESTER CITY under the m a n a g e m e n t o f B re n d a n Rodgers are again quite the force they were when they won the Premiership title a few years back. Last weekend the King Power Stadium welcomed visitors Arse nal, whose manager is under huge pressure to start getting results. Form the start of the match Leicester City never looked in any trouble at all, fully in control of the game at all times and it was a surprise that it was still 00 at half time. Sixtyeight minutes saw a lovely goal. Pereira made ground down the right and found Barnes, just inside the box. Barnes flicked the ball to Tielemans, who rolled a firsttime pass across the face of goal, teeing up Vardy. He slammed into the bottom left, giving the Ar senal keeper no chance.

dan Rodgers as the title holders from 2015/16 season move into second position of the table. After the game Arsenal manager Unai begged for more time, he said “Our priority was being consis tent ... we created some chances ... I thought in the first half we played well, and had opportunities to score and win the match ... the players worked and had very good attitude ... if we scored the first goal we could control, but we did n’t do, and they did ... our priority is to win the next match at home ... we are behind Leicester and Chelsea, but we must take confi dence ... in 38 matches, little by little, we will get better ... we need time, we changed a lot of players ... we are ambitious, but we need time.” Although Arsenal aren’t a club for sacking managers quickly, the board may be thinking they got the wrong replacement for Wenger with rumours circulating amongst supporters that one ‘Jose’ is being lined up.

LIVERPOOL CRUSH MAN CITY
HIGH PACED: Liverpool v Manchester City. THE two top premiership teams clashed at Anfield on Sunday Liverpool v Manchester City with five points between them at the top of the table. It wasn’t long at all until the first goal when on six minutes City thought they should have had a penalty for handball, after the ball flicked off Alexander Arnold’s thigh and into his arm. The referee waved play
on and Liverpool a raid down the left. Mane’s low cross was poked clear, but Fabinho ran onto it, took a touch and blasted it inside the post from 25 yards ensuring Liver pool a footing with a 10 ear ly lead. Just eight minutes later though they stole a second goal when Robertson’s cross bounced to Salah, who head ed it in. Ten minutes into the sec ond half and Liverpool
scored a third. It was a gor geous Henderson cross, and Mane stooped to head in at the back post Bravo got two hands to it, but could only fumble it in. City pulled a goal back on the 80th minute when An gelino’s low cross deflected to Bernardo Silva, whose low shot clipped the inside of the post on its way in. The last 10 minutes Liver pool completely lost their swagger, but they still had
their lead as City threw everything at the bus, but Liverpool saw it out and went eight points clear at the top of the premiership and looking likely champi ons this year even at this early stage. City themselves with the loss dropped to fourth. It was a cracking match, fullblooded, highpaced en tertainment from first to last, packed with quality, an absolute neutralthriller.
Swiss National team visits Gibraltar
TO some extent, it could be ar gued that the acceptance of the Gibraltar Football Association into UEFA is something of a nui sance as they have so few play ers to call upon and they are more likely to lose than win. That aside, the players and people are proud of what they have achieved and so far they have managed to beat Armenia, Latvia and Liechtenstein since they were allowed to play recog nised international matches. They are currently at the bot tom of their qualifying group which is made up of Denmark,

then the Swiss team will be in Gibraltar at the Victoria Stadium the following Monday. Tickets for the home match are £25 and £30 and if you live on the Costa del Sol, here’s a chance to travel to the Rock and bring youngsters as there is no history of football hooliganism and there will be plenty seats. These two matches are very important as there is just one point between Ireland, Denmark and Switzerland and the number of goals scored against Gibraltar could make the difference be tween qualifying or missing out.
