COSTA DEL SOL
YOUR PAPER, YOUR VOICE, YOUR OPINION
BREXIT BOOM MARBELLA is getting a financial boost from the Brexit vote as British residents sign on to the padron municipal register. The ‘official’ population of the Costa del Sol city has grown by 10,000 people in just a year as UK expatriates seek to safeguard their rights ahead of Britain finally leaving the EU. The 5 per cent rise - the population has gone from about 142,000 inhabitants registered in 2018 to about 152,000 this year - means Marbella is now the seventh biggest city in Andalucia by population. Head of the city finance department Felix Romero said “I don’t think there is any city with such a high level of growth.” Romero attributed the rise to campaigns to encourage residents to register and to Brexit, despite an initial dip after the
MARBELLA: Showing a high level of growth. 2016 vote to leave the EU. He said: “Many Britons have decided to register in response to the situation in their country, which shows that Marbella is an attractive municipality. It is as if many British decided to burn their ships and stay with us.” He could not, however, specify whether the increase in the census is due to previously unregistered residents signing up or newcomers to the municipality.
Romero said that when the National Institute of Statistics updates the number of registrations in the municipality, Marbella will surpass Huelva in population. It is good news for the city’s coffers, said Romero. “The increase in population means, above all, income. It means that in the budgets there is a much higher contribution of funds from the Participation in the Income of the State (PIE) and from
the taxes of the autonomous community. “It also means increased enrolment in taxes such as the IBI, which means increased revenue,” he explained. The increase in population, added Romero, is a sign “of the success of the city. This has a relevance in the area of the budget because it allows us to increase the accounts and cover needs that would otherwise be difficult.”
Deadly roads ahead
NEW figures suggest traffic accidents are on the rise in the province of Malaga. A total of 28 people have lost their lives on Malaga roads in 2019, nine more than in the whole of 2018. The number has broken the downward trend of accidents on inter-urban roads. Last year saw the biggest drop in casualties since records began in 1960. There were, however, 19 victims. Use of mobile phones is one of the main culprits and caused at least three of the fatal accidents that occurred in the province
between January and October. A study by Direct Line has highlighted that two out of every 10 deaths on the road are caused by mobiles. Half of Spanish drivers, 13 million people, have conceded that they use their phone occasionally whilst driving. Investigators have also blamed the scarce use of seatbelts, especially in the backseats, for the hike in road casualties. Never forgetting the repeat offenders, alcohol, drugs and speeding, which alone are responsible for 90 per cent of deaths.

Gang busted BUSTED: Seven men were detained. A GANG that used fake vans purporting to be from a well-known courier company to smuggle drugs to France from the Costa del Sol has been broken up. Seven French nationals have been arrested, 11 vehicles confiscated and 4,500 kilos of hashish seized in Operation Marwone. Investigations began last May, when the Guardia Civil tried to stop a van displaying the logo of a well-known parcel company at a routine stop on the A-45 motorway. The driver ignored them and sped off before abandoning the van at an exit to the town of Benamejí, Cordoba, and fleeing on
foot. The van was loaded with about 1,800 kilos of hashish. A police search tracked down the alleged driver of the van, a 34-year-old French citizen, who was arrested on drugs charges. Police became aware of a convoy of four vehicles. The first was a reconnaissance car used to look out for police checkpoints while two others provided security, for a van. Police stopped the convoy, made five arrests and found another 1,650 kilos of hashish. Subsequently, searches were carried out in four homes related to the organisation in
Fuengirola and Mijas and another person was arrested. Another 1,050 kilos of hashish loaded into another van ready for shipment were found as well as five vehicles, radio inhibitors and detectors, around €20,000 in cash and a large number of false identity documents, scales, vacuum packers, mobile phones and other communications systems, as well as other material usually related to drug trafficking offences. The operation was been carried out in the provinces of Benamejí, Tudela (Navarra), Gallur (Zaragoza), Mijas and Fuengirola.

Ex president sent to jail FORMER president of the Junta de Andalucia regional government José Antonio Griñán has been sentenced to six years in prison in a corruption-related case. He has also been disqualified from public office for 15 years by Sevilla Provincial Court. His predecessor in office, Manuel Chaves, has been disqualified for nine years for prevarication, the same sentence received by the former Minister of Public Works Magdalena Álvarez and the ex-vice president and strong man of the Junta at the time of Chavez, Gaspar Zarrías. Prevarication can be taken to mean unfair actions under Spanish law. The convictions come as part of the so-called ERE case. N amed after the Spanish term for a collec-
tive dismissal procedure (expediente de regulación de empleo, or ERE), the case is investigating illegal payments from a €680 million fund set up by the regional government to help struggling firms make severance payments to laid-off workers. About 85 per cent of the fund was used for the correct purpose - early retirement payments were made to about 6,000 people - but it is thought the remainder was used illegally in an immense system of patronage that enriched friends of the director general of the Labour Department, PSOE (Socialist) mayors and high ranking PSOE officials. Investigations uncovered a host of ghost companies and payments to hundreds of businessmen, lawyers and insurance companies.

SPECTACULAR: San de Gaztelugatxe in the Basque Country.
CASTLE ROCK It’s hardly surprising this incredibly striking island of San de Gaztelugatxe was selected as a filming location for Game of Thrones. LOCATED along the Bay of Biscay, 35km east from Bilbao, the island fortress - literally translated as castle rock (from Basque ‘gaztelu’ = castle + ‘aitz’ = rock) - was known as Dragonstone in season 7 of the BHO series. The island is connected to the mainland by a man-made stone bridge which leads into a narrow path of 241 steps which weaves its way to the top where there is a church with a bell along the front of its façade. According to legend, anybody who
climbs to the top should ring the bell three times and make a wish. The church at the top is dedicated to John the Baptist, who is said to have set foot on the island. However, the small church is not original and has been rebuilt several times over the centuries, having burned down. The first hermitage is believed to have been built here in the ninth century. Having become a convent before being abandoned by the friars in the 14th century, San Juan de Gaztelugatxe had a strategic purpose as a de-
A friend in need A SECONDARY school started a petition for Abdoulaye Bamba, an unaccompanied foreign minor in Spain. Students at IES Costa del Sol secondary school are collecting signatures so that their classmate from the Ivory Coast can stay in the centre. Three months ago, 17-year-old Abdoulaye arrived in Spain in the search of a better life. The teenager arrived without documentation and now lives in Virgen de la Esperanza care home in Torremolinos. The home is transitional until a final location is decided, a procedure that can last months. But Abdoulaye’s new friends at school want him to stay. They have spoken with management at the centre and are now petitioning for the Andalucian Board to review the case. Abdoulaye has thanked his school friends for their support in a heartfelt letter, in which he relays his sadness at leaving them all behind.

fensive outpost for the lords of Biscay. San Juan de Gaztelugatxe also played a small role during the Spanish Inquisition. Witches and their ritualistic meetings known as Akelarre in Basque make up a part of the Basque mythology. The church deteriorated over time and it was eventually demolished in 1886 and rebuilt from scratch. Unfortunately, during the demolition process, all of the artifacts found in the ground, such as coins and cannon balls, were thrown into the sea.
Cycle path MALAGA City Council hopes to start work at the beginning of next year on a cycle route to run alongside the Guadalmedina River that will lead from the Armiñan bridge to the foot of the El Limonero Dam, with a cost close to €1.1 million. The work will be broken into two stages of the route, Armiñan to Puente de la Rosaleda, with an estimated budget of €200,000, and Rosaleda to the Limonero Dam, which will be covered by the rest. Approval was received from the Board to move forward with the project in March 2018, the last steps pending with the Junta de Andalucia have been overcome. Requirements highlighted that the route be bound to the upper part of the river, but never by the river bed itself, forcing the municipal technicians to revisit and adapt the original project.

Water worries REPORTS have come in from a concerned resident who frequently visits Istan and had been alarmed at the decreasing water level in the reservoir. Michele Brecknell, a photographer, had previously visited the area to take photos of the Embalse de la Concepcion. On a return visit, she noticed there had been such a drop in the water level that a once completely submerged house had now appeared. Speaking to Euro Weekly, she said: “In all the years I have lived here, I have never seen a house in the lake!” More recently she has noticed that the water level is “almost non-existent.” As you can see from the photographs Michele supplied, the house is well
above the water level and another smaller house has appeared. With more people becoming aware of environmental issues and taking steps to protect the world by simple measures like sustaining water EWN was keen to help Michele get to the bottom of this and contacted the town hall of Istan. They were very quick to get back with a response confirming the levels are monitored consistently. “The Embalse de la Concepcion supplies water to the municipalities of the Costa del Sol. Since it has rained less this year it is normal for the level of the damned water to decrease. It currently sits at 30 per cent of its capacity.” They added that “When it rains again, the reservoir will fill up again.”

Sales point shut down
TWO retail sales points for cocaine have been closed down by police in the Giron district of Malaga. Three Spaniards - two men and one woman between the ages of 34 and 26 - were arrested for alleged crimes against public health. Police say that the gang operated a system known as ‘tele-coco' where clients would phone them an order. The main suspect would then deliver it to a pre-
arranged spot, usually accompanied by his children or his partner, who was also arrested. The third person detained is alleged to have supplied them with narcotics. The investigation began as a result of information received by officers pointing to the main suspect - who has been remanded in custody - as a drugs supplier. A surveillance operation showed he was very security conscious, often making ‘fake trips’ and using his
children and partner as cover for his activities. The surveillance operation also led them to a 30year-old man who is alleged to be the source of the drugs. Police finally moved in on the trio with two raids in Malaga. Officers seized 114 grams of rock cocaine substances used to cut the drug, a scale, two vehicles and €4,630 in cash.
7 girls targeted
NATIONAL POLICE officers have arrested a 62-year-old suspected of allegedly abusing seven girls between the ages of 13 and 15. Police say the man frequented areas where children gathered then lured them to his house with the promise of gifts. Once there he plied them with alcohol and drugs to gain sexual favours. The investigation began last month following a complaint by the father of a 15-year-old girl. The man asked the officers for help after surprising his daughter inside a car with an older man when, according to their statements, they were on their way to “spend the day at a hotel spa.” At this point the arrested man left the
girl behind and quickly left the unnamed Malaga Province town. Investigators made inquiries and found that this person had recruited more girls, all of them aged between 13 and 15 years old. Once he got the girls hooked on drink and drugs, he would demand sexual favours for the supply of more. He also, say police, did not hesitate to threaten them with knives. Following the location and arrest of the alleged perpetrator, the officers entered and searched a property where he had taken refuge. There they located narcotic substances, a large machete and clothing belonging to one of the victims.

Road rage in Marbella IN what would appear to be a case of road rage, a Dutch man allegedly chased a woman driver along the A-7 before assaulting her in Marbella. Then as he sped off afterwards, he drove over the feet of his victim, according to National Police. Officers have now arrested in Marbella a 25-year-old man accused of crimes of injury and against traffic safety. In a statement police said that the suspect was driving along the AP-7 at Marbella when, allegedly, without warning he began to harass and endanger the driver of another vehicle. A chase started, with police saying the suspect was driving recklessly and endangering the lives of other drivers. The victim left the motorway and tried to take refuge at a shopping centre. But the Dutch man allegedly followed her, jumped out of his car, confronted the woman then recklessly sped off. The events occurred at around 3.20pm on Thursday, November 7. Police started an investigation and identified a suspect and car they believed were responsible for the incident. The vehicle of the alleged perpetrator was located and towed away from a street in Marbella several days later. When the owner went to the police station to retrieve his vehicle he was arrested and eventually charged.

Serious health deficits
REGIONAL HOSPITAL in Malaga has postponed more than 500 tests in mere days. In-patients who need further testing by professionals are being seriously affected by the lack of personnel in the hospital. Medical professionals don’t have sufficient time to do CT scans, endoscopies, ultrasounds or resonances. The medical union UGT has announced the centre owes staff 800 days off so far this year. Management at the hospital has used ingenious planning to restructure staff in the absence of newhires. But the unions have spoken out about the situation and say it has meant postponing more than 500 diagnostic tests among admitted patients. In one week, patients who require help to move around haven’t been able to undergo their diagnostic tests. Wardens that assist patients to the testing areas are in short supply and in special need of new contracts. Staff have been accumulating extra time off after working overtime and the UGT union assures the numbers are now up to 800 days owed. Union sources add that with so many tests postponed, patients are spending longer stays at the

RESCUE SHIP: Clara Campoamor at Malaga Port.
Rescue at sea A MARITIME RESCUE drill of national importance is to take place at Malaga Port. The exercise of national scope will stage a rescue and the fight against pollution. Under the name of Polex 2019, the maritime drill was organised by the Society for Maritime Rescue and Safety. The exercise addresses the need of permanent training for the groups responsible for rescue missions and environmental protection,
taking into account the diverse unforeseen situations that can happen at sea. Multiple institutions were present at the port, such as the Spanish Army, Maritime Guardia Civil, Customs Surveillance, Civil Protection as well as State Security and Police. The collision of two ships was simulated, a level 2 emergency that alerted all participants. The exercise assumed a bulk carrier left the port and collided with a container ship. The carrier only saw damage to its hull,
whilst the container saw the loss of a sailor and two wounded with significant damage to the fuel tanks. Participating crews rescued the victims and tried to find a solution to avoid fuel spills. Ships such as Sasemar Clara Campoamor and María Zambrano were present, as well as the Helimer 206 helicopter, a Navy Ship and Guardia Civil vessels. The exercise follows the Port’s safety policies and constitutes one of the most important simulations carried out in recent years.

Bridging the gap EFFORTS to construct a bridge connecting El Lajarejo and Lomas del Real with the A-387 are going ahead smoothly. Six heavy weight support beams have been laid and the bridge looks set to be completed before the end of the year. Mayor of Mijas, Josele González, said when visiting that the bridge was 70 per cent complete and would augment wider efforts by the government to improve the infrastructure of the area. He pointed out that this vital construction would improve accessibility for almost 2,000 local men and women.
Also onsite was Councillor José Carlos Martin, who highlighted how the bridge had followed requests from locals for an easier way to access the A-387 highway. He stressed that the bridge was quite an achievement, considering the lengthy processes involved in obtaining building permits from the Ministry of Environment. The bridge is being built with an investment of €561,000 and within a timescale of 75 days. It’s estimated that some 660 homes in El Lagerejo and Lomas del Real will benefit from the improved transport links brought on by the construction.

Shelter not slaughter DURING the Commission of Environmental Sustainability in Malaga, parties approved a zero-slaughter policy in the public animal shelter. Local government, a coalition of PP and Ciudadanos, didn’t back the socialist proposal of a Master Lighting Plan for the city. However, they did approve a motion submitted by PSOE to create an observatory for animal welfare and the review of maintenance conditions in all public dog centres. Councillor for PSOE, Begoña Medina, demanded a Master Lighting Plan that would put an end to dark areas in the city. The measure has been requested in order to manage street lighting and the danger that completely dark areas pose for traffic and
pedestrians. The plan didn’t receive the necessary backing, but government has accepted a proposal to study the installation of eco-friendly street lamps that use solar batteries. On the other hand, the zero-slaughter of animals has been implemented at Malaga’s animal shelter ‘Zoosanitario’ at the request of the Socialist Party. Cats and dogs are still sacrificed in the centre and PSOE also wants to create an Animal Welfare department to ensure the rights of pets in the municipality. In addition, subsidies for animal associations have also been increased and funds have been approved for awareness campaigns for the protection of animals and to avoid their abandonment or mistreatment.

Concerning work conditions
NEWS
THE Employment office in El Palo in Malaga breaches several rules regarding accessibility and working conditions. A report put together by the Junta de Andalucia indicates that evacuation routes are inadequate and the regulated space per worker isn’t available.The Andalucian Board has been searching for a substitute building for months in order to move the office to a space that complies with safety regulations. Initially, the old Bobby Logan nightclub was selected as the replacement, but it was later found it didn’t meet the required urban conditions. Malaga Town Hall is now feeling the urgency as official documents underline the poor conditions of the current facilities.
SPECIAL TREATS: Cultural entertainment.

LA CIZAÑA: The plot is around 208,000 square metres.
Hotel plans persist PLANS for a large hotel complex in La Cizaña are officially reactivated as Malaga Town Hall initiates the process. The Junta de Andalucia has begun t h e e n v i ro n m e n t a l analysis of the zoning plans for the project, located on the border with Torremolinos. Four years after initial plans were put in place, things are back on the move at La Cizaña. The Junta admitted the town hall’s request to submit the partial zoning plans for environmental assessment, which were first approved in
July 2015. Councillors in Malaga are looking to help the development of the west side of the city, that already has construction underway in La Térmica and Torre del Río. La Cizaña is pending approval and if the project moves forward, 37,000 square metres will be built up to house the hotel complex. Originally, the plot had been destined for residential use, but the sound footprint of the capital’s airport didn’t allow this option. Now, two hotels have been planned that will boast either four- or five-star ratings.

Waste of water KNITTED KNOCKERS: Received a €1,000 donation.
Made with love ON a sunny autumn afternoon, Knitted Knockers celebrated the presentation of a generous donation from La Cala Lions. Euro Weekly attended and was able to see firsthand the women’s amazing work. The fantastic €1,000 donation is funding brand new Knitted Knocker Kits that will be distributed among Spanish Cancer Associations across Andalucia. The thoughtful kits look to help women with breast cancer all over Spain. Maria Bailey, president of Knitted Knockers, has already launched them in Sevilla and will continue the expanse. The inspiring group met up at the Spanish
Association Against Cancer centre in Fuengirola, where Vice-president Paloma welcomed us and highlighted the amazing services the centre provides for cancer patients across the province. She spoke fondly of Maria: “This project is amazing. We simply put Maria in contact with hospitals and the women who need her help.” Smiles all around, the women posed cheque in hand. The air was jubilant and Paloma and Maria broke into song. “Friends forever!” they sang. Maria said: “The beauty of our knockers is that they are made by women for other women. But going forward and as we grow, we need more funding to keep us going.” Visit knittedknockers.org to get involved in the cause.
CONCERNED Torreblanca resident John Youngson, spoke to Euro Weekly News regarding dr y riverbeds in the area that seem to have fallen into disrepair. John spends a lot of time walking through the area and had noticed that the riverbed between Los Boliches and Torreblanca had started to look unkempt and pools of stagnant water and green algae can now be found. He also worried about a “constant running stream of water that looks to have no noticeable source, but flows directly into the sea 365 days a year. Could the water not be reused instead of wasted?” The riverbed between Los Boliches and Fuengirola has also begun to look neglected where it was previously regularly cleaned. “Is this the reason one of the beaches in the area lost a blue flag?”

AREAS IN DISREPAIR: Neglected and dirty. John asked. EWN contacted the Fuengirola Town Hall who said they are aware of the situation and have been contacted repeatedly throughout the last months. The council “do not have the means to find out the origin and analyse the contents of these waters” but they are “finalising the process of hiring a
company specialised in this area to find where these waters come from, as well as carrying out the corresponding chemical analyses that reveal what it contains” and looked to a positive conclusion, said a spokesperson, adding: “Once this company does its job and we have the results, the appropriate decisions will be made.”

Donating blood in Spain A rubbish situation IN DECLINE: Public spaces have fallen into disrepair.
RESIDENTS in Manilva are demanding the town hall tackle the declining state of their neighbourhood. The municipality that lies on the border between Cadiz and the Costa del Sol is seeing a rapid deterioration of its public spaces. A concerned resident got in contact with Euro Weekly News in a bid to spread awareness. Nico from Manilva called Euro Weekly in the hope the situation garners attention, forcing the town hall to take action. Nico denounced the rubbish that has been accumulating in
certain places of Manilva, such as Duquesa de Arcos street and the Sunday Market area. When asked how long the situation has been going on, Nico said: “Oh! For years! At least two or three years that nothing has been done.” He assured residents are disgusted by the state of disrepair some areas have fallen into. “It’s full of rubbish. There are rats the size of rabbits. Our taxes have been increasing and increasing and nothing is being done.” The Sunday Market is one of the main areas being affected by the rubbish and debris, with many visitors and stall owners in despair about
the waste. Nico was adamant that local government hadn’t done anything to answer people’s complaints. Residents allege Mayor Mario Jiménez hasn’t done anything to tackle the issues. The candidate of Compromiso Manilva has been under attack for his supposed inaction. Nico said about the local government: “They spent half a million euros to repair a section of pavement and they’ve left it in worse condition than before!” Euro Weekly News has contacted the town hall for a comment and is awaiting their reply.
Cultural icon EUGE N IO CHICA N O, painter, activist and the man responsible for introducing pop art to the artistic avant-garde art of Malaga, has died at the age of 83. During his long career, Chicano would combine cultural activism with an overflowing creativity and would also be at the forefront of the claim to use the city’s customs house as a museum. On achieving this goal he went on to become
the first president of the Malaga Customs Museum Foundation. Chicano is an essential figure in understanding not only the evolution of Malaga art, but also the cultural transformation experienced by the city as ver y few artists have united art and their hometown in such a close relationship. He also lead to the creation of the Picasso Museum Foundation Natal House back in 1988.
LIVING in Spain can bring with it an array of issues which may not have been encountered when living in the UK. There are lots of things to consider, and we are here to help try to make the transition and life in Spain a little easier by compiling a series of helpful facts and figures relating to a variety of topics. In Spain, Blood Components and Services are provided by 17 Regional Blood Transfusion Services. Despite their autonomous operations management, every regional service is fully incorporated into a unique and common Public National Health System, supplying a cohesive blood transfusion care to all citizens, residents, and visitors in Spain based on 100 per cent voluntary and non-remunerated blood donation. For more general information, visit www.msps.es. Anyone who has lived continuously in the UK between 1980 and 1996 (a minimum of one year) will not be able to donate blood in Spain due to the risk of transmitting mad cow disease. Similarly, there are restrictions if you have received a blood transfer in the UK. However, each region may have different rules about donation. Call the donation helpline on 935 573 500. Alternatively, visit www.donorsang.gencat.cat to find out if you are eligible. If you are eligible, you can give blood at your local hospital, or via the Spanish Red Cross (Cruz Roja) at one of their clinics, or in one of their mobile units. You can check dates and locations by visiting www.donarsangre.org. A donor card is not necessary to give blood. On the first visit you will have to provide DNI, NIE, passport or a driving licence. If you are already registered in the Blood Bank, you only need a donor card or a document with your name and surname. The process of blood donation takes just 10 minutes in which 450 ml are collected (equating to 10 per cent of the total blood circulation of an adult person). Despite huge technological advances, the only way for hospitals to obtain blood is through the generosity of the public. The blood is carefully screened for disease to make sure it is safe. After a tattoo, you must wait four months to be eligible to donate. After surgery, the exclusion period will depend on the type of intervention. After minor surgical procedures, you cannot donate blood for seven days or until you are fully recovered. After undergoing major surgery, you will not be able to donate blood for four months. The rarest blood type is AB, present in 1 per cent of Caucasians, according to research by the America Red Cross. Blood transfusions are carried out daily in Spanish hospitals with more than 6,200 patients being given them, of whom almost a quarter are fighting cancer and a similar figure receiving transfusions during or after surgery. Spain has around two million donors in total, but needs closer to four million. This information is for guidance only, and should not be taken as legal advice. If in any doubt, seek professional help.

A WOMAN aged 93 broke her shoulder after she tripped over a rental electric scooter left lying on the ground in Malaga’s historic city centre on Spain’s Costa del Sol. The events took place around 3.30pm on November 15 in Calle Carretería. The woman, who after the incident went to the nearby cafeteria Framil for help, told staff that the afternoon sun dazzled her so she didn’t spot the scooter that had been left lying flush on the ground in the middle of the pedestrian area. The café owners called an ambulance which took her to the Regional Hospital of Malaga. According to health sources, the patient was treated for a fractured right shoulder before being discharged the same day. The Euro Weekly News has previously reported on the controversy caused by the proliferation of rental electric scooters in the city. Critics say they are sometimes ridden dangerously and often -
as in this case - left abandoned in the middle of streets. A proposed by-law will regulate the activities of rental companies and insist on proper parking areas for the scooters.

The Letter of the Law A C C O R D I N G to the CEOE (Spanish Confederation of Employers’ Organisations), there are in Spain approxi mately 100,000 laws, norms and regulations of
all kinds, of which almost 67,000 are regional. This legislative haemorrhage, far from receding, is on the increase. Luckily, in our daytoday
business we will be actively interacting with just a handful, albeit the most im portant ones (Civil and Criminal, Road Safety and Horizontal Property Acts, to mention a few). Still, there are norms that one might find interesting even if they don’t relate to everyone. Let’s see a few: • Licence of Occupation a c o n d i t i o n o f R e n t a l L i cencce. Many properties in this country do not have this licence, for a variety of reasons, and regulations vary across Spain. In Andalucia, the Decree 28/2016 refers to having the LFO or an ‘equivalent document.’ In Marbella, thousands of illegal proper ties are being rented with the notorious ‘certificate of noninfraction,’ apparently without issues. Other town halls issue ad hoc certifications to comply
with regional legislation. • Legality of cannabis products in Spain. Trading with cannabis is not legal in Spain. At the most, you will be allowed to grow the plant for your personal use, and consumption needs to be restricted to the privacy of a home. Cannabidiol, which is a derivate and not classed as a drug is legal; however, it can only be marketed for external use (cosmetics). • Duration of lift mainte nance contracts. The Supreme Court has recently ruled that where the own ers of lifts are consumers (private individuals or Homeowners Association), the maximum duration of these will be of three years. This limitation will allow those consumers to change suppliers and benefit from free competition in the trade.

• Cancellation of flights and compensation in the wake of the Barcelona ri ots. According to Regula tion (EC) No 261/2004 of the European Parliament, a carrier’s liability can be lim ited or excluded in cases where an event has been caused by extraordinary cir cumstances which could not have been avoided even if all reasonable mea sures had been taken. This includes political instability which, unfortunately, is the case in Cataluña at present. • Squatters rights in Spain. Squatters have no rights in Spain other than the right to a fair trial
where sooner or later the Judge will order their eviction. The Senate recently ap proved a fast track proce dure to have squatters evicted within days (ineffi cient service of process and other Court delays exclud ed). • Child Custody after Di vorce. There isn’t a specific law as to which parent should be awarded custody, other than by what’s best for the children. Currently, Courts award both parents shared custody in 30 per cent of the cases, 65 per cent to the mother and 5 per cent to the father.

More tourism jobs EMPLOYMENT in the tourism sector grew 4.5 per cent in October in Andalucia, compared with the same month last year. This was one of the largest increases recorded in Spain and compares to the 3 per cent average across Spain. Andalucia added at the end of last October 282,421 workers in the tourism sector affiliated to the Social Security, 12,236 more than in the same month last year. It was the autonomous community where the numbers of both employees and self-employed grew most, in absolute values, followed by Cataluña, Community of Madrid, Valencia, Basque Country and Murcia.

them most and that is where gamification comes in, through a system of rewards to encourage doctors to get more vaccines and families to get vaccinated. This Maat platform is simple, Ortiz detailed, “Although there are no computers, everyone has a mobile,” he said. “The system
works by means of a kind of Wallet application in which the agreed tokens are transferred as soon as the vaccine is injected or a patient goes to the doctor for immunisation. The user can subsequently store them or use an exchange application to exchange it for traditional currency.”

At the same time that this event was announced, the council reminded youngsters and parents of the need to fight obesity and launched the 35th Fruit Day when all schools were encouraged to persuade those in their care to eat fruit. Students are involved in promoting the concept and are encouraged to replace one snack meal such as a sandwich every day for a selection of healthy fruit for one week.

Workshops were set up in tents to allow the demonstration of firefighters equipment, fire extinguisher handling, CPR and First Aid. This is the 14th annual Fire Prevention Week and will re-

A donation to local cancer hospice THE British Society of Benalmadena Pueblo meet every month for a Sunday lunch and since June of this year have been encouraging members to leave a donation of some amount in a giant wine bottle. This was organised in memory of two of their members who sadly passed away this year but were given assistance during the time of their illness by the Cudeca Hospice in Benalmadena. The sum of €1,099.95 was collected by the members and earlier this month the bottle was opened and the money counted so that a cheque in that amount could be handed to Hospice representative N atalia Aparicio Lombardo by club president John Kelly and his wife Marijana.

Rubik’s Cube competition THE World Cube Association based in America gave its support to the second International Rubik’s Cube Championship ‘Fuengirola Cubea’ which took place last Saturday and Sunday. Some 70 ‘brainboxes’ from across Spain and Europe (with one from the USA) arrived to take part in 11 different categories which included one handed, blind, 5x5x5 cube, magaminx and pyraminx. The Saturday competition ran from 9am
until 8.30pm with a lunch break and then on Sunday from 9am until 3pm. Prizes were awarded for the top three in each category and local youngsters were encouraged to visit in order to watch experts at work and to learn the secrets of how to become a Rubik’s Cube champion. At the same time, the Red Bull Rubik’s Cube World Cup took place in Moscow, proving that this isn’t just an annoying toy, but a lasting international brand.
Business as usual
CONCERNED market traders from Fuengirola’s Mercacentro have noticed a drop in customer numbers since the recent presentation by Mayor Ana Mula of the winning proposal for the remodelling of the building. Scott Gray, The Scottish Butcher, has had a stall there for more than 10 years and told Euro Weekly News “I received a message from a customer asking where
my new shop will be now that the market will be knocked down.” And added, “Customers have read about the plans in a few of the newspapers but as far as we (the market traders) know it is only a plan and could take a couple of years to happen.” Stallholders are keen to make shoppers aware that there are no immediate plans to change and it will be business as usual for the foreseeable future.
Time for flu injections ALERT to the possible harm that flu can do to the elderly in particular, the Fuengirola Council has a policy of ensuring that those in its care are vaccinated accordingly. At the Puebla Lucía home
for the elderly, 145 residents were visited by health workers from the Costa del Sol Hospital and were given their vaccinations. In addition and where c o n s i d e r e d n e c e s s a r y,
some residents were also given an injection to stave off the risk of pneumonia. Flu can affect anyone and the council is recommending that all of those over 65 should take precautions.

La Cala - Mijas NEWS More temporary work WITH a total budget of â‚Ź5 million for 2019, the Mijas Council has increased the number of staff employed at basic wage for six months from 113 to 235 and is looking to top 300 before the end of the year. Those being employed are mainly quite young, but the idea is to give them some work experience as a stepping stone to full time employment in due course. Whilst the jobs themselves are fairly basic, they include cleaning, working on beaches, gardens, and libraries as well as overseeing the opening and closing of schools. The council believes that this type of opportunity not only benefits the community as a whole but gives those involved a new sense of worth and expects them to act in a professional and committed manner at all times.

Money is a major worry as she is a single mother who worked in the Real Estate business as well as with a law firm, but there is a strong family bond and after two months in hospital (Charlotte was on one floor and her mother on another) she is very slowly recovering a little at a time. The family came to Spain from Norway in 1987 and currently live in Coin where sister Jeanette and her mother share a converted house and Charlotte is

THE Marbella Council has announced that in preparation for the winter months it is looking to offer help and assistance to those who are homeless within the city boundaries. There is already a service which operates from 10am to 2pm which looks to offer to supply food, basic sanitary services and psychological help which is run by the Red Cross with support from the council. It is claimed that those in need of help are mainly middle aged men and on average some 55 are looked after every day. Those at the meeting included members of the council, representatives of the Local Police, Red Cross, Civil Protection and the head of the Marbella Social Inclusion Centre which takes action in the evening to try to assist. Whilst the council and these representatives have good intentions and appear to do what they can, according to one homeless person who arrived here from the north of England via Russia and Morocco four years ago, the number of people involved is significant and there is very little assistance given. He told Euro Weekly News that he lives in a shack on the beach and finds

himself caught in a poverty trap as he can’t find work as he doesn’t have all of the right papers and although he looked remarkably well turned out considering his circumstances, he still faces difficulties from employers and the authorities. According to him, there are two types of homeless people in Marbella, the drunks and drug addicts and those who either have mental difficulties or have simply run out of funds due to the financial problems of the past 15 years and he sees more and more elderly people of different nationalities in trouble. He lives by going to supermarkets and obtaining free food which may be out of
date from friendly staff who often act unofficially and feels that there should be a law here in Spain as there is in France and Italy whereby supermarkets are not allowed to throw any food away if it is still edible and can be given to those in need. It is a difficult situation and although he does obtain the odd piece of work helping on fishing boats, if no fish are caught then he doesn’t get paid. The fact that he and a number of fellow homeless people don’t speak Spanish also makes it difficult to actually take advantage of some of the opportunities that do exist.
MICK SLATER: Reached Salou on the 20th day.
Walk to freedom MICK SLATER began a mammoth challenge at the start of the month: a 1,000-mile walk from Marbella to Monaco. On November 1, the entrepreneur took his first strides in Marbella. Mick was aware of the challenge, but would never have guessed the physical and emotional toll the gruelling walk would take on him. Every day, Mick walks an astonishing 33 miles, across roads, mountains and dangerous stretches. Euro Weekly reported the story and spoke with Mick and his family a few days into his ‘walk to freedom.’ By his 20th day, Mick has amazingly reached Salou in Cataluña. Mick is using the opportunity to fundraise for mental health charity Mind, that provides support for millions of people.

Ceremonial opening of the new Interfaith Week Gibraltar Parliament to be regular
ALL of the recently elected MPs were formally sworn in at the Ceremonial Opening of Parliament with a new speaker Melvyn Farrell replacing outgoing speaker Adolfo Canepa. The opening was presided over by the Governor of Gibraltar Ed Davis who gave a speech concerning the obligations of those now elected. In response, the Chief Minister, Fabian Picardo confirmed the pleasure that he had to return to the House and to be comforted by the continued support of the UK government. As ever, comment was made concerning the wish of the people of Gibraltar to continue to recognise British Sovereignty over the Territory and also the need for the United Na-
tions to recognise that Gibraltar is not a colony and should not be treated as such. He made much of the fact that freedom was an important word especially considering that the people of Gibraltar had been involved in two world wars and had seen the fall of the Berlin Wall and the independence of so many Eastern Bloc countries. In addition, he referred to his government as being one which recognised that rights of all people regardless of race, religion or sexuality and that was in his opinion one of the reasons why his coalition party was elected for the third term running. Other members of Parliament will present speeches over the coming days.
AS has often been remarked, Gibraltar has remarkably few problem considering the size of the population, the relatively small area in which they live and the number of different religions on the Rock. Each year, the mayor of Gibraltar (now John Gonçalves) hosts a meeting at City Hall to celebrate Interfaith Week so that representatives of the various faiths can meet together and discuss matters of interest to them. The new mayor has suggested that this should become a more regular event and that by this, those of the younger generation would see and learn from the respect that each representative showed for the others.

Once inside, they found he had left the gas taps on in a highly dangerous situation. Officers say that the man had previously damaged several cars and had threatened passers-by in the Ciudad Jardin area of Malaga with a knife. Members of the Malaga Local Police Support Task Force (GOA) had to break down the door to reach the 42-year-old man before he carried out his suicide threat.

Making no headway the decision was made to call in reinforcements. A security perimeter was set up, the fire brigade called and preparations to break in were made, particularly as it was thought he had taken tranquilisers and sleeping pills.
When they saw that the man had ceased leaving and entering the window, a team from the GOA, with several officers from the National Police, entered the flat using a battering ram to open the door. Meanwhile, outside, a basket from a fire engine crane was placed next to the balcony with two officers clambering on to the balcony to make sure the man did not throw himself off. Once inside police found the man lying on a mattress on the living room floor. In addition, they noticed a strong smell of gas as the individual had left the gas spouts open. Police say he offered minimal resistance to being taken to hospital, where he was undergoing assessment. Two knives of 20 and 23 centimetres each were recovered. The man’s brother said he and another sibling had been forced to move to another property as they lived in fear that he would carry out threats to harm them and set fire to the flat.

EWN: At the Heart of the Community COMMUNITIES are the fabric of society and the heart of collaboration, help and friendship. At Euro Weekly News, we value our readers tremendously and the kind-hearted communities we all share together. We strive to nurture and care for them and we pride ourselves for helping whenever we can and encouraging others to help as well. For us, no challenge is impossible and no problem is unsolvable when it involves our big family. Since our newspaper began, it has made its own special place in the core of so many varied communities. Different age groups, religions and nationalities never fail to come together and collaborate with Euro Weekly, making up our unique colourful clan. Every single day of the year, the team at EWN works towards a better community. We receive countless letters, emails and phone calls asking for our support. No opportunity to help and bring awareness to an important cause goes unnoticed. Over the years, EWN has organised an array of different events, celebrations and fundraisers for all different manner of causes. We want to highlight some of our biggest achievements together! We could never forget EWN’s own Benidorm Has Talent, when amazing Kayleigh Taylor won the €2,000 prize and EWN raised €15,000 for cancer charity AECC. Guests were surprised with a performance from X Factor star Rowetta, who amazed everyone with her vocals Age Concern is a wonderful charity that provides help and friendship for the older English-speaking community on the Costa del Sol. We loved organising a fun-filled Garden Party at Sohail Castle in Fuengirola, where live entertainment with Rowetta and a delicious buffet was enjoyed by all. This year, our EWN team - led by director Steven Euesden joined the charity at the top of the iconic Sunset Beach Hotel in Benalmadena and bravely abseiled all the way down! EWN has lent its support to MABS Cancer Support Group, backing their spring ball in April 2015, which raised €5,000. And when EWN owners Michel and Steven Euesden held a 10-year wedding blessing, they shunned gifts in favour of
donations to Cudeca. Each year, we support the Positively Pink Ball which annually raises tens of thousands of Euros for breast cancer screening. And last year, EWN was proud to get behind the second annual Oceana Grant A Wish Pink and Blue Ball which collected €16,000 for some exceptional causes. Over the years, we have formed a close bond with the Leighton family as we worked together to raise money for the Tomas Leighton Care Charity. Lovely Tomas suffers from cerebral palsy and epilepsy and needs the community’s helping hand. He can always count on our support! Always looking to give back to our readers, we dreamed up the fun idea of giving away a car! You heard right! In return, we wanted to know in what ways we could improve to better meet our readers’ needs. One lucky reader was gifted their very own €15,000 EWN car! In 2014, our readers also got the opportunity to nominate someone for our Make a Wish campaign. We teamed up with friends in the business community to give someone in need the most amazing prizes! Never forgetting little Leo who fought bravely against cancer. Our EWN family made some amazing donations towards proton treatment for Leo in the US and supported the family with kind messages and prayers. The Royal Wedding in 2018 saw parties all over the UK and we wanted to include our British Community in Spain in the festivities. EWN directors Michel and Steven Euesden had been invited to the British Embassy in Madrid to commemorate the occasion. But the Euesden couple always keep their EWN family at the forefront of their hearts. A senior member of staff represented the newspaper in Madrid, whilst Michel and Steven hosted a brilliant community party on the sunny Costa del Sol. And lastly, we would like to relive our recent Halloween Fundraiser. What an amazing event with people from all walks of live giving generously for the orphans in Malaga. Our community came together and we raised over €10,000!

More police ORIHUELA is giving priority to recruiting more Local Police in its latest staff recruitment drive. The councillor for Human Resources, Luisa Boné, reported that the process for recruiting 12 more officers has started. José María Pomares, Chief of the Local Police said the force has been declining since 2013 and has a current strength of 126 officers. With the new recruitment drive, plus other personnel already in the pipeline, there will be 25 new officers bringing staffing to 151 officers, one more than in 2013. Orihuela City Council has a total staff of 731 municipal employees, of which 269 are workers, 207 career civil servants and 255 interim civil servants. This makes the percentage of interim officials around 55.19 per cent. It is the intention of the council, according to Boné, to reduce this by approximately 10 per cent during the term of the current government.

COSTA DEL SOL
Cancer workshops
Axarquia represents in London
EXCHANGE INFORMATION: Improving quality of life. HOSPITAL Costa del 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.

AXARQUIA
FIVE of Axarquia’s major towns made the journey to London last week to take part in the 2019 World Trade Market. The World Trade Market Exhibition is one of the most important trade shows in the world when it comes to tourism, and this year, the Costa del Sol turned out in force to represent the Malaga Province. Nerja, Torrox, Frigiliana, Velez-Malaga and Rincon de la Victoria joined Antequera, Torremolinos, Benalmadena, Fuengirola, Marbella, Benahavis and Manilva to take part in the show to promote the region’s unique tourism qualities. Numerous companies and travel operators also attended to help reassure the British public that Andalucia is staying committed to UK tourists in the face of Brexit uncertainty. Torrox made their mark with a high tech audio visual display that promoted the region’s ‘best climate in Europe’ slogan, whilst Rincon de la Victoria showed support to the Añoreta Gold Club, paying homage to the fact that golfing tourism equals almost 40 per cent of the town’s tourist numbers throughout the summer. This year, Frigiliana also joined its Axarquian neighbours to help promote its qualities, but also to learn about new trends and strategies in tourism to push the town forward.

Next day appointments for residency in Alicante City THE Spanish authorities have issued a reminder that it is possible to organise next day residency appointments in Alicante City via the Spanish government website. In all 180 appointments are being opened up on a daily basis, and there is quite a lot of availability each day. Since appointments are opened up each day, if there are none left at the time of checking, it is worth bearing in mind there will be more the following day. The appointments can also be used to apply for ‘caracter permanente’ for anyone who has been resident for more than five years. Hence anyone who used to go to the main police stations in Orihuela, Torrevieja, Denia and Benidorm can now take advantage of this new resource in the provincial capital. The instructions for booking an appointment on the website are straightforward enough. Go to the website https://sede.administracionespubli cas.gob.es/icpplus/index.html. Select the province ‘Alicante' from the drop down menu. Then select the option ‘Policia Certificado UE (Exclusivamente Para Reino Unido)’ and follow the steps to confirm the appointment.

Toys’R’Us bounces back THE friendly giraffe known as Geof frey will forever be associated with the Toys’R’Us business which went into terminal decline in the USA. Although the 16foot statue of Dr G Raffe, as he was originally known, has moved to a children’s hospital in New Jersey, the Spanish arm of the business has made a remark able recovery. It was purchased just over a year ago by a Portuguese investment fund and is now expecting to break even in 2019 with a turnover of €160 million.
By John Smith The business already has a mar ket share in the toy world of 15 per cent and is battling to wrest second place from Juguetto, whilst the mar ket is still dominated by El Corte In glés. The company plans to open at least five new stores every year and is updating stock in a number of its stores in order to offer a more ex perimental choice to customers as well as beefing up its online pres ence.
Other ideas include the sharing of buildings in out of town locations which it owns but which are too large for the business and also a possible franchise arrangement with new independent companies. Traditionally, it has always oper ated from large stores of up to 1,800 square metres, but it is also considering scaling new openings down to around 600 square metres full of the top selling toys. Another string to its bow is the Babies’R’Us brand, which it plans to expand within the Iberian market.
LEGALLY SPEAKING Can he extend his stay? I have what should be a simple question, but having trawled through dozens of websites and forums, consulted my lawyers, and talked to estate agents, I cannot get a straight answer. If I want to stay in Spain over the winter between 90 and 180 days (surely I am not the only one in this po sition), can I apply for an extension allowing me to stay for longer than 90 days without being compelled to apply for a residence permit? A S (Costa Blanca) The law says that, after 90 days, you YOU AND THE must leave Spain LAW IN SPAIN or apply for a resi dence permit. There is provision for a legal extension but the requirements are very strict. If you are being treated in the hospital for severe injuries, the exten sion will be granted. Otherwise not. Yes, thousands of north Europeans are in a similar position. They want to spend maybe four winter months in the Span ish sun. Here is what they do. They just stay over the legal limit. They can be fined when they leave, but very seldom do the Spanish authorities actually do this.

Tax payers unhappy ACCORDING to the Partido Popu lar Financial Head of the Madrid Community, Javier Fernández Lasquetty, the election of a PSOE government could cost taxpayers in the area some €5.9 billion.

Free internet for UK households LABOUR leader Jeremy Corbyn has announced that if his party wins the General Election, he will take action to nationalise the fixedline internet network owned by BT. This would then allow high quali ty broadband to be given free of charge to all of those in the UK who have internet access and would save the average household about £30 (€35) a month in rental fees.

JEREMY CORBYN: Promises broadband for all.
Group bedding down SOUTH AFRICAN retailer Steinhoff has confirmed that it is to sell its loss-making UK furniture business Blue Group to European retailer Alteri Investors. Although no details of the val-
ue of the sale have been released, it is known that Blue Group which owns UK-based furniture companies Harveys Furniture and Bensons for Beds has an annual turnover of some £500
million (€550 million). The business operates 269 stores in the UK as well as four manufacturing sites and five distribution centres which between them employ 2,700 staff.
tribute sufficiently to the British economy. The amount that the Labour Par ty expects will be needed to fund this operation is £20 billion (€23 billion) although industry insiders suggest that it would be more likely to cost as much as £100 billion (€115 billion). Such a decision would obviously affect the profits and turnover of all of those companies in the UK currently offering internet services and one in particular, Talk Talk, was surprised by this unexpected news as it was in the process of reaching a deal to sell its Fibre Nation busi ness. This enterprise was aimed at sup plying very high speed connections in northern England to some 60,000 households initially, with the plan to expand this to take in some three mil lion private customers. Whilst Talk Talk has so far invest ed around £60 million (€69 million) in developing this project, other suppliers have also been putting money into their own alternatives and any new Labour government would have to negotiate with them all.

Plenty more worms LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT IN my humble opinion Clinton was a far better liar than Prince Andrew. Although the ex-president was actually telling more porkies than Pinocchio, his statement that he ‘never had sexual intercourse with that woman’ did appear to be somewhat sincere and believable. By contrast Prince Andrews’s televised attempt at damage limitation was an utter disaster. Would you ever consider buying a used car from this man? Personally I would rather deal with Arthur Daley! Some of his denials were quite bizarre. When asked about his young accuser’s accusa tions of him ‘sweating heavily’ he said that from his involvement in the Falkland’s war he had contract ed a condition that meant he didn’t sweat! I looked this up. This malady is known as Anhidrosis and is an extremely serious condition that can be fatal. It needs special treatment and medical expertise in cluding carrying water spray to irrigate the body. Ever seen him having a quick spray over the years? No? Nor me. The truth is, the whole exercise stinks of the usual establishment´s connivance to
PRINCE ANDREW: Claims he ‘never had sexual intercourse with that woman.’
protect the backsides of the privileged and aristoc racy at any price. As I have often stated in this col umn, in this respect they will stop at nothing. You al so can’t help ironically drawing parallels between this latest saga and the Duke of Edinburgh’s alleged involvement in the Christine Keeler affair of the 60’s. The main perpetrator of those particular sexu
al shenanigans was Stephen Ward. Ward was also arrested and put on trial. When it was apparent the trial was going against him, he in credulously asked was ‘nobody going to step for ward and help him’? When it appeared they weren’t, he became a loose cannon and the follow ing day could easily have blown the whistle on them
all. That night, surprise surprise, he mysteriously ‘committed suicide!’ Well I can tell you, in the pic tures that emerged of him being rushed out of his apartment on a stretcher there was not a medic in sight. He was in fact surrounded by ‘men in suits’ speedily hustling him into the ambulance. This was of course the reason Christine Keeler went quiet, she was obviously petrified that she too could ‘unexpectedly commit suicide.’ All sound a bit familiar, doesn’t it? No, I’m afraid none of this dam age limitation is happening by chance. This is the result of a typical ongoing establish ment conspiracy. The main character in the investi gation ‘commits suicide.’ The Prince goes on televi sion to categorically deny any involvement and then the best lawyers money can buy go into court and endeavour to destroy those who have made the ac cusations. Unfortunately, because he totally screwed up, the prosecution must be rubbing their hands at the veritable colander of holes they can pick in his interpretation of the events. My guess is his lawyers will now never dare risk him actually appearing on the witness stand. One thing is for sure, there are plenty more worms to appear from this particular can before they do final ly manage to screw the lid down. If they ever do! Keep the faith.

No offence, please! I’m a snowflake! 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
FIRST we had silent ‘jazz hands’ (at Oxford University, it was decided that clapping should be replaced by waving both hands by the sides of the body at meetings to avoid caus ing ‘anxiety’) and then we had Sheffield University banning students from wearing sombrero fancy dress outfits because of ‘cultural appropri ation.’ In 2016 an American college re portedly offered counselling to stu dents ‘injured and affected’ by a group of classmates who wore som breros to a tequilathemed birthday party. And I thought the USA had cornered the market in snowflakes! Some hypersensitive delegates at a gender conference at Roehampton University were issued with red, yel low and green traffic lights on their lanyards to indicate wordlessly their preparedness or otherwise to engage in conversation about the complex
SAM SMITH: Talking gender identity. and harrowing question of gender despite talking about gender being the whole point of the conference. Seems you can’t bandy pronouns willynilly these days, what with a couple keeping their baby’s gender secret, even from its family (alleged ly, we should give all newborn babies numbers rather than names until they are ready to determine their own gender identity) and the singer Sam Smith announcing ‘they’ want to be known as they/them not ‘him.’ Equity, the trade union represent ing actors and entertainers, advises venues to use ‘genderneutral’ termi nology in their announcements like ‘good evening everyone’ instead of ‘ladies and gentlemen.’
As to what should be done about renaming Shakespeare’s play ‘Two Gentlemen of Verona,’ Equity is silent, however! Like any sane, properly brought up, interesting person, I am speech less (well, almost) in the face of all this nonsense. As for those displays of splayed fingers, they make me very ‘anxious.’ Could we just settle please for a nod and a wink? Finally, on a really positive note, many thanks to everyone who’s left great comments on my website about ‘Betrayal,’ the latest of my thrillers now available in audiobook format! Happy reading! In fact, even thinking about the novel is sending icy, bloodcurdling shivers down my spine... Nurse, the screens please! That’s better, now I’m back on the meds. And bring that big syringe! Nora Johnson’s crime thrillers ‘Be trayal,’ ‘The Girl in the Woods,’ ‘The Girl in the Red Dress,’ ‘No Way Back,’ ‘Landscape of Lies,’ ‘Retribution,’ ‘Soul Stealer,’ ‘The De Clerambault Code’ (www.norajohnson.net) avail able online as ebook, ibook, paper back and audiobook.

MARBELLA MOMENTS BY NICOLE KING WHEN Charmain Arbouin, our British Consul, agreed to talk and meet with Marbella’s British citizens in Marbella on November 12, she expected Brexit to have been done and dusted. This was not the case, but even so the event organised by the Foreign Residents Department was a great success. Marbella now has a council lor specifically responsible for us, Remedios Bocanegra, who has much experience in the administrative side of foreign residency and was respon sible for the introduction of the pro ceedings. Charmaine made the first address to those gathered, summarising the paperwork we should have in order. This included ensuring your passport has at least six months validity, en sure you exchange your UK driving li cence for a Spanish one if living here, similarly getting your residency if
Charmain Arbouin and Remedios Bocanegra meeting was a success. that’s the case and ensuring the de tails on your existing one are correct and uptodate. She also made a fi nal plea for everyone to sign on the local Padron, explaining how this is so fundamental for the local com
munity to have sufficient govern ment funds to clean, police and pro vide sufficient healthcare facilities for the existing population. After the event there were still many questions so thankfully Susan
and Marietta from the British Em bassy were also brought in to help, as was the Foreign Residents team. A lot of people working a lot of extra hours, because of something we in stigated. Charmaine was the one to point out that perhaps we are not appreci ating how much the Spanish are ac tually doing for us. We seem to for get that we Brits are living abroad and are guests in a foreign country. Moreover we eagerly complain about their systems and everything we need to be doing facing us leav ing the EEC. Again, we need to re member that it’s the British who have voted to leave and with some 300,000 of us currently living in Spain, it’s literally the Spanish that are paying a very high price for this transition. Much of Spain’s taxpayer’s money is now going towards additional staff required to prepare and negotiate all the agreements between govern
ments as well as handle all the pa perwork and documentation of the thousands of people finally deciding to legalise their situation all over the country. Obviously there is even more pressure on the small town halls that handle exorbitant amounts of resi dent tourists, such as ours. This means all local governments have to work harder too and yet we show very little gratitude; if any. Apart from contacting the British Embassy for queries regarding what’s happening and about to hap pen, it’s also noteworthy that the Spanish government has also invest ed in an English language website link from their page www.lamon cloa.gob.es covering all aspects of Brexit. They even have audio files for each section so you can just listen if you want to. The Spanish, our hosts, are literally bending over backwards to help us, so let’s start to give credit where credit’s due.

Beautiful San Sebastian TALK to almost every Spanish national about travelling around Spain, and they will all mention San Sebastian. And if you say that you’ve never been there, it’s greeted with a look o f d i s m a y, q u i c k l y f o l l o w e d b y “ i t ’s beautiful... you must go there!” San Sebastian or Donostia as it’s known to the local Basque Country population is one of the most northerly of Spain’s most popular tourist destinations located on the Bay of Biscay. San Sebastian’s most fa mous attraction is its great selection of beaches, but for those seeking a little more than a sunbathing holiday there is a wealth of history to be discovered and a chance to learn about a whole different culture and language at the same time.
If anything, a trip to San Sebastian feels like you’re visiting two countries for the price of one. Much of the architecture that San Sebastian offers is relatively modern, with one example being the Buen Pastor Cathedral (or Cathe dral of the Good Shep herd). Dominating the local skyline at 75 metres high (245 feet), construction be gan in 1888 with the offi cial documentation being signed by the twoyearold King Alfonso XIII... the pre sent King Felipe VI’s great grandfather. The building was origi nally just a church and des ignated as being a cathe dral in 1953, nine years before it was completed. Featuring the Gothic Re vival style, it’s considered the most important church in San Sebastian and is an even more spectacular sight at night thanks to the lighting.
One of the most visited places in San Sebastian is the Parte Vieja (Old Town). The quaint buildings fa mous for their very colour ful roofs are protected from the sea by the Monte Urgull. Traditional tourists that are looking for a more re laxed form of nightlife will quickly fall in love with the Parte Vieja when they get to know its trendy bars and cafes, and with the Basque Country being world fa mous for the quality of its cuisine, there is no prob lem in finding a quality restaurant or four. To walk off the food and drink, a stroll through the streets to see some of the city’s other famous church es such as the Basilica of St Mary’s of the Chorus is recommended, and as you do so try to imagine that until 1863, this historic Parte Vieja was surrounded by a wall.

A Quantum Leap into the future? RON N IE ROCKS THE TECH GOOGLE, IBM and China are in a race to create a truly useful quan tum computer. And billions of dol lars all around the world are being ploughed into the technology. In October 2019, Sycamore, (Google’s quantum computer) per formed a calculation in a mere 200 seconds that would take the world’s fastest supercomputer, the IBM Sum mit, 10,000 years to perform! Yes, 10,000 years!! With Sycamore, Google claims to have reached quan tum supremacy, the point where a quantum computer can perform cal culations that surpass anything the most advanced supercomputers to day can do. That’s great you say but what can it be used for? It could design more efficient bat teries, make effective medicines, bet ter security, sensors and accurate measurement (metrology) in the form of atomic clocks and more accu rate GPS to be used in self driving au
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: Can be used to solve problems across the board. tonomous cars for example and if you would like to buy one, a Quantum Computer is likely to cost a cool $100 million. Quote from Matt Vaughn, from the University of Texas. “In the hands of cancer researchers, a Quantum Computer that can outrun the com putational speed of tens of thousands of traditional super computers would
rapidly accelerate the pace of re search in “genomics, genetics, radia tion physics, and biomedical imag ing,” surely just that on its own is a reason to push ahead isn’t it. We can’t discuss Quantum Com puting without mentioning the other buzz word in the tech world at the moment which is Artificial Intelli gence or AI. The UK’s Department for
Work and Pensions (DWP) is explor ing the use of AI to judge whether benefit claims are true. An £8 million ‘intelligent automation garage’ has been created by the DWP with the goal of developing up to 100 new ro bots to assist Britain’s welfare sys tem. One thousand new IT staff have al so been recruited to help support the
DWP’s ambitions, mmm so a 1,000 IT staff on approx 25,000 grand a year saves money. Artificial Intelligence can be used to solve problems across the board. AI can help businesses increase sales, detect fraud, im prove customer experience, automate work processes and provide predictive analysis. Financial services can benefit from AIbased process automation and fraud detection. Well that’s the good news and here is the not so good news... It is predicted the Artificial Intelli gence will eventually replace Telemar keting, Bookkeeping Clerks, Compen sation and Benefits Managers, Receptionists, Couriers, Proofread ers, Computer Support Specialists, Market Research Analysts, Advertising Salespeople and Retail Salespeople. Artificial Intelligence as yet cannot replace the following: Human Resource Managers, Sales Managers, Marketing Managers, Public Relations Managers, Chief Ex ecutives, Event Planners, Writers, Software Developers, Editors, Graph ic Designers, Musicians (okay I made that one up)! :) ronhowells@euroweeklynews.com

ON THE STREETS Dear Editor I AM writing in response to the Our View section in last week’s paper. You spoke about homelessness and how it is getting worse in Spain. My wife and I live in Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol and we are getting quite wor ried about the amount of homeless people on the streets. It’s getting to the point that going to the supermarket is a problem. They camp outside and continuously ask for money. Whilst I can empathise with their situation, it gets quite intimidating when they shout and have scuffles between them. My wife doesn’t go to certain places on her own any more. I think we need to bring this issue to our town halls and really give it some impor tance. What can we all do to get this sorted? We need to get these people off the street for their safety and ours. Gordon Harding
Animal cruelty Hello Hola I JUST read the article on animal cruelty in Paloma Park in Benalmadena from Octo ber and wanted to add that during my holiday in July I also witnessed teenagers terrorising the animals, chasing them and trying the catch them. I was very up set by this and it altered how I felt about one of my favourite parts of Benalmade na. I really want as many people involved with the park like the staff running it to be aware and to do something about it. I know resources will be tight but as a place that people visit often as a family and with children to enjoy the nature and animals this is the last disturbing thing you want to witness and you want to feel as if the animals are being re spected and their welfare needs upheld. If you are able to pass this info to peo ple involved with the park in Benalmade na or give me any contacts I’d really ap preciate it. Many thanks. Hannah Pattinson

HOMELESSNESS: What can be done to address the issue? page article about the aid of the poor don keys in Mijas. My husband and I live in the town and regularly see the donkeys strug gling under the strain of fullygrown adults. It’s such a shame. I understand the don key handlers need to make a living but it is an outdated part of the town culture like the bullring which was put to better use. I see some have carriages which are slight ly better but maybe if they are just a tourist
HAVE YOUR SAY
attraction they could just be there to admire as they are decorated so colourfully or even just to have your photo taken with and the proceeds could go to their welfare and up keep. I wasn’t aware of the donkey sanctu ary, but will be offering my support and look forward to any further information you have. Beth James
All letters by email or post should carry the writer’s address, NIE and contact number though only the name and town will be published.
It seriously breaks my heart! How oh how can peo ple be so cruel! A bed, some love and a flipping €10 bag of food for at least three months would feed a dog!! It’s not a lot to ask for someone who will love you and be loyal to you! Shame on you! Jackie Salsac
BLACK FRIDAY has rolled back around and is planned for November 29 this year. Retailers worldwide have spent the last month reminding shoppers about the incoming discounts and bargains. But where did the shopping madness start? The term refers informally to the Friday following Thanksgiving Day in the United States and marks the start of America’s Christmas shopping. Every year, the shopping frenzy has increased and retailers open earlier and earlier to welcome the masses. Since 2006, there have been 12 reported deaths and 117 injuries in the US. Europe has now seen the arrival of the legendary Friday. As with most things, the experience hasn’t reached the excessiveness or extravagance of our neighbours across the pond. Shops have simply welcomed the new tradition as an opportunity to get the Christmas season underway and each year festivities seem to start at an earlier date. There is no doubt that Black Friday has infiltrated and greatly impacts buying trends. Consumers are getting into the habit of waiting until Black Friday sales to buy their selected items and some choose to get an early start on present buying. Could the new tradition mean the end of last-minute Christmas shopping? Following in the same footsteps, technological companies have now created Cyber Monday for their tech products and it will be on November 2.

Mijas Donkeys spared from 80kg tourists New donkey sanctuary with education and train ing. Sponsors, merchandise etc... little coffee shop. This would bring more money and peace to the vil
lage. The ideas are endless. I won’t go to the pueblo any more until big changes are made, sick of coming back in a bad mood. They have untreat ed ulcers under their harnesses and broken hooves. Jennie Moreno I guess it’s a start. I can’t bear to look at the poor things tied up so tightly. I hope people decide to walk around this beautiful place. Liz Furness

YOUR STARS
TIME OUT
FOR NEXT 7 DAYS AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) With so much to think about, will it really be a wonder if something or someone gets left out? It's not just the glitz that's inspiring the action, but certain thankless tasks which are bound to crop up. Whatever the planets get up to, there'll be no stopping Friday and Saturday's enchanting delights.
PISCES (February 20 - March 20) You will be ready and waiting for whatever you've organised. Then, without warning, you could have to backtrack or make other plans - you might even encounter some undeserved criticism. But no matter what happens, the weekend will definitely make up for any workaday muddles. Meanwhile, if you're a mixer and mingler, you'll be swept off your feet.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20) As you top up your spirits with some extra ideas, don't be surprised if a couple of items drop out of sight. If you seriously want to minimise niggles and hassles, then ask friends or relatives to lend a hand. It's a great week for togetherness, so ensure that you celebrate in style.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) There will be enough hurlyburly to cope with at work, let alone elsewhere, so don't even think about doing everything single-handedly. Cooking, hosting and being all things to everyone shouldn't be your version of the perfect week. Teamwork is the way forward, so take the lead and be sure that everyone gets happily involved.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) The more you can offload, the happier you'll be. As you attract kindred spirits, you'll be able to look forward to the weekend whirl with family and friends. In the lead-up to the weekend, try to be patient with those who seem to be pulled in other directions. The weekend's full moon sets the scene for a useful exchange of ideas.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) Good news should come your way this week. Regardless of how you mark it, you'll be surrounded by caring hearts. Sunday's full moon is one of
‘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.’
two this year associated with journeys, homely connections and good fortune. Despite some workaday hassles your efforts will be well starred.
LEO (July 24 - August 23) Many happy moments will keep you on your toes. With warming wishes in the wind, and a charming touch of luck, don't panic if certain events don't match up to your high standards. Just be Leo-proud that you've got what it takes to make things tick. Unfortunately you can't afford to assume that everything will run to time.
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) You won't avoid the occasional mishap, but if you're tactful on Tuesday and chill out on Wednesday, the lead-up to the weekend's partying will see you go after whatever you want. Personal and financial discussions will remind you that life is what you make it. Just ride life's waves with confidence.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) This week's change of planetary powers will allow you to find exactly what you're looking for, especially if you're shopping for bargains. Happily, everything is coming together, so don't let everyday niggles spoil your long-term plans.

They consider health and wellbeing in a broader societal and community con text, and offer solutions that common medical practice has so far been unable to address effectively,” Dr Östlin ex plains.

MANY charities on the Costa del Sol mainly have support from people from a single country but the Triple A Animal charity is PanEuropean with supporters from all over. Two volunteers who spend a huge amount of time dog walking, foster ing and generally helping the organi sation are from Holland and Sweden and although they want to remain anonymous at the moment, it is they who have taken the initiative to or ganise one of the biggest Triple A fundraisers for some time. On December 15, guests will be invited to enjoy a meal at the fabulous SeaGrill at the Puente Romano Hotel in Marbella and it will be something different. The hotel itself is a great supporter of the charity and its owner actually adopt ed his dog from Triple A, so it was a move from kennels to life aboard a yacht, but this is what happens with a charity that cares. The meal will be based on a sharing plate concept with cocktails and canapes

There will be some great entertain ment with singer Francesca Caballero, Sumaia Alanez another singer who fronts
a trio, Gee Sax who is known along the Costa for his saxophone playing and of course a DJ. For companies looking to treat their staff to an exceptional Christmas night out, this is the ideal option, so book a table, thrill your employees and help the charity at the same time. Tickets cost €100 per person and can be reserved by visiting www.puentero mano.com SeaGrill Restaurant or by sending a WhatsApp to +31 683 157 025 and Euro Weekly News is delighted to be the media sponsor for this event. Many people ask why the charity man ages to transport so many animals to oth er parts of Europe and the answer is sur prisingly simple. The two ladies who have organised this event have both looked to offer their ser vices in their respective countries and say that in Holland and Sweden for example, there are almost no organisations of this type because dogs are kept as family pets and not abandoned, so those with a good heart look to adopt from Spain.
Christmas Art Auction THERE will be an auction of Christmas Art with part of the proceeds be ing shared between Triple A Animal Charity and Age Concern Marbel la on Friday November 22 at 7pm. The work consists of prints, original oil paint ings and tryptichs pro duced by Penny, Bianca and Robert Germaux and 10 per cent of all proceeds from the auction will be shared by the two chari ties.

This week Celebrity & Fellow Master Chef Steven Saunders, proprietor of The Little Geranium in La Cala visits London restaurants in search for new food trends!
New Food Trends Steven Saunders FMCGB The Little Geranium La Cala de Mijas & Marbella www.thelittlegeranium.com I AM unsure who or what creates food trends, but they definitely exist! If you visit any modern coun try’s capital they will always have a trending slant on fashion, food and restaurants especially in New York or London. So, last week I flew over to Lon don to see what is trending right now. My brother Howard lives be tween London and New York and visits most capitals in the world each month. He is a motivational speaker on retail trends including food trends. So I left it in his hands to book somewhere for dinner that is on trend! We met at an old English pub in Soho and had a pint of London Pride straight from the barrel (something that we don’t get in Spain).
He then took me to a tiny place around the corner in Soho called Berenjak which is a Persian restaurant. The name comes from the brightly coloured toasted rice eaten as a snack at funfairs in Iran called Berenjak. Persian or Iranian food is not that familiar to the Europeans, but it is similar to Lebanese food. It was a small, intimately cosy and really charming restaurant. We had the most delectable hummus and some roasted aubergine crushed with mint and yoghurt served with flat breads. Then chunks of beef and lamb rump on skewers cooked on the open fire followed. We drank a bottle of Lebanese red wine which was light and delicious and put the world to rights. “So is this the new food trend in London?” I asked. Howard ex plained that there were many trends, but mostly they are all centred around natural whole some and authentic foods, mak ing Persian food a popular choice as it is totally unadulterated. The flavours were amazing I have to say and we had a

We flagged down a taxi to take us home and the cabby asked how dinner was. We couldn’t be
lieve that he was from Tehran and he was delighted that his coun try’s food was being well praised as we talked excitedly about some of his favourite dishes. If there was a down side to the meal it was that the meat was quite fatty and rare. If you are going to put raw meat on a fire you need to cook it long enough for the fat to burn off but also to give it the full flavour of the char coal. I sent the meat back and my brother said… “OMG we can’t go anywhere!” I don’t like to be criti cal but after more than 40 years cooking I don’t feel embarrassed about being discerning! I like the idea of some Persian dishes on our lunch menu (which has an international theme). I have been thinking about the hummus and the aubergine and I definitely want to share some of these flavours with you, so I am giving you the recipe for the hum mus. It’s quick and easy to make and has fantastic flavours. You will never buy a bought hummus ever again!
Steven Saunders’s opinions are his own and are not necessarily representative of those of the publishers, advertisers or sponsors.
Persian Hummus INGREDIENTS (Makes 6/8 portions) • 1 tin of cooked chick peas drained • 1 tbsp water • 1 clove garlic chopped into 3/4 pieces • ½ fresh lemon, juiced • 2 tbsp Tahini paste (ground sesame seeds) • ½ tsp ground cumin • Pinch of Maldon salt • ½ tsp ground cayenne pepper • A little freshly cracked black pepper • A little olive oil To Garnish • 1 teaspoon of Sumac (Iranian spice made from wild berries, a bit like lemon) • A pinch of cayenne powder • Finely chopped fresh parsley • Coriander oil ( optional) Method 1. Add the chick peas and one tbsp of water to a small
saucepan and heat over low for 10 minutes until it is heat ed through. 2. Add the warm chick peas and the water and chopped garlic to the food processor, process about two minutes, or until smooth. 3. Add juice of ½ fresh lemon and process for about one more minute. 4. Scrape the sides down and add the Tahini, ground cumin, salt, cayenne pepper, and freshly cracked black pep per. Process for another minute. 5. With the food processor running, drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil through the chute and process for two to three minutes until creamy and smooth. 6. Taste and season if necessary 7. Serve it at room temperature. 8. When ready to serve, add a light drizzle of olive oil, some whole chick peas, a pinch of sumac, a pinch of ground cayenne pepper and some finely chopped fresh parsley or dried chilli flakes. 9. Serve with toasted Persian flat bread.
HUMMUS: Fantastic flavours - quick and easy to make.

“
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.

CHARITIES ACE CHARITY ‘El Refugio’ in La Cala de Mijas is a registered charity. We have on average 275 dogs in our care and we receive no help from the Town Hall or the Andalucian government. We desperately need foster homes and adoptants for our many dogs, especially the small ones and puppies who do not do well in a big shelter. We are grateful for any help offered, including donations of food and blankets. Visiting times are from 13.00 to 15.00 and you can always turn up or make an appointment by calling Denise on 669 018 736. Our website is www.ace-charity.org where you can view all the dogs in our care. (93320) ADANA THE ANIMAL SHELTER IN ESTEPONA. We always need volunteers to walk and socialise with our dogs and help with cleaning. We also need good homes for our animals that you can see on www.adana.es. Kennels open every day 10-1.30, Camino de Casares, near Parque de los Pedregales, Estepona. (5 minutes from the Poligono) For more information call 952 113 467, available from 10.00am until 14.00pm. (93319) SEPE the horse and donkey charity is open to the public at weekends from 10.00 to 5.00. Volunteers are much needed in all departments and are welcome at anytime. For our riding for the disabled classes, we are also in need of extra helpers. We are nationally registered by the Spanish Ministry of the Interior (164640) but only with your support can we give the equine a voice. If you can just commit to 2 or 3 euros a month it will really help make a difference. You can find us at Lauro Golf Equestrian Centre, Alqueria, Alhaurin de la Torre. Tel. 608 258 950 info@sepeonline.net www.sepeonline.net (93321) SOS ANIMAL REFUGE we have dogs, young and old looking for homes. Some of our dogs have been with us for some time and would love to find a cosy spot to curl up in and a knee on which to rest their heads. If you have room in your heart and home we would love to hear from you. We do not put our dogs to sleep - no matter how old, they are safe with us. For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive. We desperately need items to sell on our market stall to help raise funds and are happy to come and collect. So if you are having a clear-out, please contact us on 605 227 155. If you would like to know more about re-homing, please call 653 257 875. Visit our website www.sos-an imals.org or please phone
Sandy on 952 385 923 or 666 814 056 if you would like to make a donation or help in any way. (93317)

Tesla in Berlin ELECTRIC vehicle pioneer Tesla is set to build its first European facto ry and design facility in Berlin in a move to further boost its reputa tion for reliability and sporting prowess. Tesla’s chief executive, Elon Musk, made the announcement at a Germany’s Golden Steering Awards ceremony, stating that European ‘Gigafactory’ would make batteries, powertrains and vehicles starting with its Model Y SUV. Musk cited risks surrounding the UK’s exit from the EU for his deci sion, “Brexit [uncertainty] made it too risky to put a Gigafactory in the UK.” Tesla will be taking on Germany’s own BMW, Mercedes and Volkswa
gen as they start rolling out zero emission vehicles, in a move fitting with the German government’s plan to transform the country into a leader in electric mobility. While Germany’s renowned car industry is mainly based in the south of Europe’s biggest economy, the capital has become a hub for startups and has attracted many creative and technology firms since the fall of the Berlin Wall three decades ago. Musk also said the factory would be near the capital’s new Branden burg international airport. Dietmar Woidke, premier of Bran denburg state said in a statement. “Tesla is coming to Brandenburg with a big investment,” and added
NEW FACTORY: European expansion. that, “We lobbied for this for a long time in intensive talks and with good arguments.” Tesla has already begun hiring for the new facility, according to job postings on its website which showed the carmaker was looking to fill roles from engineering to con struction. It is also reported that there had been talks about creating 6,000 to 7,000 jobs in production
alone, with hundreds or even thou sands more in areas such as design, software or research. Tesla’s European plan arrives as the carmaker also moves ahead with a £1.6bn factory in Shanghai. The firm is looking to push produc tion in China, the world’s biggest car market, where sales have slumped by tariffs triggered by the trade war
Citroen C5 Aircross Flair ROAD TEST by Nick Fletcher STRIKING visual design is a key sales factor in the im ageconscious SUV market and Citroen’s C5 Aircross hits the target with its bold and distinctive appearance. The Citroen brand status has been greatly boosted in recent years partly due to innovative design and greater emphasis on com fort, and the latest C5 Air cross features progressive hydraulic suspension for a
softer ride which the com pany has likened to being on a flying carpet. They exag gerate of course but there is no doubt the ride quality of this model is arguably best in class and provides impres sive comfort around town and on long distance jour neys. The car also has com posed handling and excel lent steering feedback which helps provide the driver with a feeling of complete control in all situations. Available from €28,114 (£24,250) and with petrol
and diesel engines, my test model was a 1.6litre 178 hp turbopetrol version with an eightspeed automatic gear box a nice combination for relaxed driving. Top speed is 215 kph (134 mph), the 0 100 kph time a nippy 8.2 seconds and average fuel consumption 13.3 kpl (37.5 mpg). Emissions are 130 g/km. In midrange Flair trim, this version is €34,485 (£29,745) and boasts a wealth of standard kit in cluding front parking sen sors and rearview camera,
electricallyadjustable dri ver’s seat, satnav, digital radio, connectivity features including smartphone mir roring, auto lights and wipers, autoparking brake and hillstart assist and dri verattention alert. The car has a strong visual exterior presence and in the cabin, there is a pleasing ambience with userfriendly layout, extremely comfort able seats and a nice driving position with good all around visibility. Five adults can be easily accommodated and there is
generous boot space of 580 720 litres depending whether or not you choose to slide the rear seats for ward. And if you drop them flat you get a massive 1,630 litres. The SUV sector is a crowd ed place and rivals include the Skoda Kodiaq and Hon da CRV but there is no doubt that the Citroen C5 Aircross should be on the shortlist of anyone planning to buy a family SUV it ex cels on many levels, espe cially overall driving com fort.
with the US. Still, Tesla has struggled with years of losses, leaving investors in doubt and casting a shadow over its shares in recent years. The firm has not yet turned an annual profit, al though positive results were shown in the final two quarters of 2018. Last year, they took major steps to slash expenses, cutting thousands of jobs and pulling back in all other spending.

DOMINANT: Convincing Euro campaign.
Spain pull apart Romania GERARD MORENO scored two and Fabian Ruiz got his first international goal as Spain thrashed Romania in their last Eu ro 2020 qualifier. Spain wrapped up their successful qualification campaign in style with a rampant 50 victory over Romania in Madrid. Robert Moreno’s side already had qualification and top spot in Group F secured heading into their final fixture and fol lowed up a 70 demolition of Malta with another dominant display at the Wanda Metropolitano on Monday. With the excellent Santi Cazorla having already hit the crossbar, Fabian Ruiz opened the scoring in the eighth minute. Gerard Moreno’s double then put Spain out of sight. Adrian Rus’ own goal
completed the firsthalf scoring, with substitute Mikel Oyarzabal picking out the bottomleft cor ner in the 91st minute to complete the rout. Jose Gaya’s foul saw the hosts have a goal disal lowed in the fifth minute, before Cazorla rattled the bar with a brilliant strike from 18 yards. Spain’s dominance swiftly paid dividends, though Fabian calmly sidefooting home his first international goal af ter Ciprian Tatarusanu failed to hold Dani Carva jal’s effort. Romania would have been level if not for Kepa Arrizabalaga’s save from George Puscas, and Spain made their goalkeeper’s work count when Gerard headed in from Cazorla’s exquisite firsttime cross. Cazorla was involved
again when Gerard dou bled his tally, playing a neat pass into Gaya, who crossed for the Spanish forward to tuck in. There was still time for Romania’s first half to get worse Rus diverting Ger ard’s cutback beyond Tatarusanu in the 45th minute. Sergio Ramos looked set to make it 50 shortly after the break, only for Spain’s captain to volley over from close range. Alvaro Morata seemed to have been forced wide moments later but man aged to dig out an effort that clipped away off the post in the 55th minute. Spain’s efforts to get a fifth were finally reward ed in stoppage time ‘ Oyarzabal unleashing a crisp strike on the turn to round off La Roja’s quali fication in fitting fashion.

FIRST up for England over the latest international fixtures was Wembley on Thursday November 14, vesus Montenegro before then flying out the squad to take on Kosovo on the Sunday evening. With England having al ready qualified it was more of a practice match against a lowly group rated side. Goals flowed for Eng land netting seven in total with goals from Alex OxladeChamberlain in the 11th min, a Harry Kane hat trick at 182237 mins, Marcus Rashford on 30 mins, Aleksandar Sofranac put away an own goal on 66 mins and Tam my Abraham wrapping up on the 84th minute. Missing from the game
was Rahem Sterling after he was, in sensational fashion, dropped from the team on a punishment from Gareth Southgate af ter falling out with England squad member Joe Gomez after an altercation at the prematch training camp midweek which had followed on from the weekend’s Liverpool v Man City title clash at Anfield. Gareth Southgate stamped out the issue quickly within the camp, dropped Sterling from the squad for Wembley and saw a quick response apol ogy from Sterling. The vic tory though paved the way to Kosovo where England football players and fans were offered a warm wel come in Pristina and other
cities for their Euro 2020 qualifier against Kosovo on Sunday evening. Both countries’ flags were put up around the capital along with banners that read ‘welcome and re spect’ ahead of a game that England went on to win 40. The Kosovans’ friendly greeting was in stark con trast to some of England’s international matches this year, which were marred by racist abuse directed at black players in the Eng land side. Kosovan fans were even clapping England goals and performance in respect. The positive welcome was a reminder of thanks felt by people in Pristina and in the rest of the coun

Walking football season kicks off
ASTON VIÑUELA (VelezMalaga) and Smiles (Calahonda) 60 ‘B’ went into southern Spain’s football history books when they faced each other in the new Blue Sky Marbella Walking Football League. The first walking football league in southern Spain. The venue for this historic event was the Polideportivo, Benalmadena on Saturday No vember 16. And the team from Viñuela set out their claim to be first winners of the League with a convincing 42 win. The Smiles team were not at full strength but Viñuela did not hold back and took their chances despite some good goalkeeping from Smiles goalkeeper Paul. Smiles 60 ‘B’ had a short break between games due to a tight playing schedule and faced rivals Walking Football Spain ‘B’ (WFS Marbella ‘B’) in their second match of the day. Smiles showed no sign of fatigue and stretched their freshers opponents all the way restricting WFS ‘B’ to a 32 win. It was now WFS ‘B’ turn for the short break before facing the on form and free scoring As ton Viñuela. WFS initially took a comfortable 2 0 lead. Viñuela proved they had not come for a day out or to make up the numbers by taking ad vantage of WFS losing their composure and re duce the WFS lead to 21. With minutes to go a free kick just outside the WFS goal which the goalkeeper seemed to have covered took a wicked deflection to give Vinuela a deserved draw and point. The final game saw the ‘old rivals’ WFS (Mar bella) ‘A’ team play Smiles (Calahonda) 50 ‘A.’ As expected both these teams set a fast walk ing football pace (which saw a WFS player be come the first to fall victim to the new colour
card system,a Yellow card five minute sin bin penalty after collecting a previous Blue Card) with WFS slick passing causing problems for the Smiles defenders. WFS quickly took advantage of the Smiles team missing key players by going into a 20 lead. In the second half WFS contin ued in the ascendency and increased their lead to 40. As Smiles tired WFS increased their tally of goals to six running out 60 winners. RESULTS : ASTON VIÑUELA 4 SMILES 50 ‘B’ 2 / WFS MARBELLA ‘B’ 3 SMILES 50 ‘B’ / WFS MARBEL LA ‘B’ 2 ASTON VIÑUELA 2/ WFS MARBELLA ‘A’ 6 SMILES 60 ‘A’. So after the first round of matches Aston Viñuela sit proudly at the top of the new League with a one goal better goal difference than WFS ‘B’. Smiles are disappointed at their start to the season but have vowed that they will be back challenging when at full strength. The next round of games in December will prove to be interesting even at this early stage of the season Smiles 50 ‘B’ will be keen to win their first points when they take on local rivals Walking Dead for whom this will be their debut in the League. This game will be played at Finca Nau drup, Calahonda. And another appealing fixture is the ‘local derby’ between the two unbeaten WFS teams with both intent on taking full points and re maining undefeated. This game is provisionally scheduled to be played at Benhavis. Dates for these matches to follow. Thanks to Estelle and Emmy from Body works for taking warm ups and treating muscle strains and injuries and the two referees for ex cellent refereeing.
