NATIONAL POLICE officers have arrested a 54-year-old woman in Marbella for allegedly committing fraudulent crimes by taking advantage of the death of an old man from the residence where she worked in Marbella and using his credit card to make numerous purchases on the Internet. However, it seems this was not the first time it had happened. According to investigations, the employee made purchases on the Internet with the victims’ cards, spending up to

The relatives of one of the victims filed a complaint at the Local Police station in Marbella when they realised that there had been charges to the bank account of their late father. As a result of the investigation carried out by the officers and after checking the bank movements, all the results pointed out the culprit of the scam to be a worker of the nursing home
where the victim resided until a few days before he died. The alleged scammer took advantage of the link between the resident and herself to get personal documentation, specifically a bank card. She made charges to the account from the day of his death until the relatives of the deceased decided to block the cards. The charges and purchases made were
for various items including pending invoices, clothing, phone bills and goods for babies reaching a total of €2,988.77. During the inquiries, the officers discovered that another person residing in the same care home had also been scammed by the same worker. Once fully identified, she was located and detained as the alleged responsible for two crimes of fraud.

IN view of Brexit having finally come into action, last Friday January 31, BBC News Europe reporter Gavin Lee spoke to Euro Weekly News’ very own Michel Euesden. Euro Weekly News is the leading free British newspaper published in Spain, and has SIX regional editions and a circulation of over 580,600 copies every month. Michel Euesden is the CEO and founder of Euro Weekly News, and works hand-in-hand with her husband Steven Euesden who is joint publisher and sales director. Gavin met up with Michel in Mijas Pueblo and said that the general feeling he got from the local British, as quoted by a local bar owner, was that “Nothing is different, but everything has changed.” Michel agreed that she had a similar feeling, as we are yet to see what Brexit really holds for us.

CRIMINAL GROUP NOW BUSTED A CRIMINAL network that promoted illegal immigration from Malaga using false rental contracts has been dismantled. The National Police, in collaboration with the Foreign Office have arrested 34 people in the towns of Malaga (18 people), Melilla (15) and one in Manacor (Menorca), for their alleged involvement in the crimes of false documentation, favouring illegal immigration and belonging to a criminal organisation. The investigation was initiated as a result of several reports that pointed to the existence of a group of people who were allegedly engaged in fraudulent activities to regulate the registration process of foreign citizens in Spain The network was perfectly structured on three levels,
each with its own distribution of tasks and roles within the organisation. The first one was formed by a Spanish and a Moroccan citizen who ran a business that they used as a centre of operations where they made false leases among other documents, as explained in a police statement. The second level was made up of people who were the ‘alleged’ tenants or landlords of the homes. And finally there were the foreigners who would use these false contracts to apply for resident permits and thus be able to regulate their administrative situation in Spain, paying between €300 and €900 for the false leases. As we understand, all residential permits obtained fraudulently will be cancelled.

THE National Police are investigating a complaint about the recent alleged poisoning of dogs in parks and gardens of Marbella. Apparently, substances have been deliberately left in public areas and could be ingested by pets. The residents of the area of La Campana, in the district of Nueva Andalucia, have raised the alarm with regard to the appearance of poison in parks on social networks and with street signs. The town council has acknowledged that, so far, there are two cases of poisoned dogs and that the matter is in the hands of the police. Residents are concerned as in 2017 a similar situation occurred, which ended in the death of around a dozen dogs thwhichat ingested poison in public areas of the same town.

CAB WARS: Capturing every infraction.
Taxi tell tales TAXI drivers of the Costa del Sol have highlighted their upset with Uber and Cabify denouncing the work of these two large platforms in Malaga with driver transport (VTC). The reality is that they have been doing it for some time, capturing every infraction they come across on their mobile phone cameras, from cars parked at a taxi stop to others circulating on roads reserved for public transport such as
the Alameda Principal or accessing the city centre without being pre-contracted. But now they have gone a step further and instead of making these situations public through social networks they are also referring them to the town halls of the municipality where they occur. The initiative was launched in December by the Taxi Mobilisation Group of the Costa del Sol, a platform established in the summer of
2018 as a strike committee of the sector. So far it has presented 60 complaints in two batches, the majority before the Consistory of the capital, in which the infraction committed accompanied by a photograph as proof is identified with the vehicle registration number. A group on ‘WhatsApp’ for taxi drivers has reached more than 300 images, although in order to be valid the infraction and registration must be clearly seen.

Nothing beats Nan’s cooking, or is it her selection of ‘herbs’? Fernanda de la Figuera, known as ‘Abuela Marihuana’ because of her activism for the legalisation of cannabis use, has been sentenced to nine months in prison for growing cannabis for her ‘association’ and providing marihuana. A Malaga judge has considered ‘Abuela Marihuana,’ who will turn 77 in August, guilty of the crime of drug trafficking and she has also been issued a fine of €10,000 for the value of the drug seized from her. The Malaga Public Prosecutor’s Office asked for four years’ imprisonment, however, Fernanda will no doubt avoid prison as the final sentence is less than the minimum to enter jail. ‘Abuela Marijuana’ plans to appeal and go to the ‘European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg,’ insisting that the plantation, that had once tallied 181 marihuana plants was for ‘personal use’ Fernanda, who considers herself the ‘apostle of self-cultivation,’ is the most veteran activist in Spain for the legalisation of cannabis. This isn’t the first time she has got herself in trouble with the law. In 2014, when she was president of the association ‘Marías por María,’ she was accused of distributing the drug from a shop she owned in Malaga. The police on that occasion seized 181 marihuana plants and €9,000. However she has always maintained what she provided was ‘therapeutic work.’

WORLD WETLANDS DAY: Raising awareness in children.
Wetland fun BIOPARC Fuengirola joined the celebration of World Wetlands Day on February 2 by carrying out activities dedicated to the biodiversity of one of the most important ecosystems in Spain. For the last 23 years, every February 2, World Wetlands Day has been celebrated in order to let society know about the importance of preserving these ecosystems.
That is why Bioparc Fuengirola held a children’s workshop called ‘Discovering the wetlands’ that consisted of different activities focused on children between six and 12 years old. The youngsters were able to feed the beautiful birds, along with a guided tour of the African wetland area where they have observed different species of birds and antelopes that inhabit the
park. This action carried out by the Malaga park aims to raise awareness of the dangers of the disappearance of wetlands. These areas are in danger mainly due to the desertification that exists as a result of climate change. In fact, according to the Aquae Foundation, it is estimated that 64 per cent of the Earth’s wetlands have disappeared since 1900 onwards.

‘No Deal’ Elephant is back by John Smith IN a speech which was widely leaked before he gave it, Boris Johnson made it clear to the European Union that if necessary, he is prepared to walk away from the negotiating table without a deal if he doesn’t get his way. The actual talks don’t start until March, but the Prime Minister is preparing Britain and the EU for a potentially tough battle over the matter of European Union restrictions on Britain in the future. It has been made clear by the THE former European Union President, Donald Tusk has irritated the British government just days after Brexit by saying that an independent Scotland would receive an “enthusiastic” reception if it wanted to rejoin the EU. Whilst accepting that Scotland could not automatically be accepted into the Union, he told Andrew Marr of the BBC that he believed that there might be a case

new European Commission President Ursula Von Der Leyen, reinforced on many occasions by Irish leader Leo Varadkar, that Britain must sign up to a ‘level playing field’ with the EU in order to secure tariff and quota-free access to European markets. The reason for this is to ensure that there is no undercutting of pricing by Britain to the detriment of EUbased companies who have to subscribe to tough work policies. Whilst not specifically saying that his target is a ‘no deal’ exit at the end of 2020, Mr Johnson is clear that he wants an agreement based either on the Canadian model which does allow free trade but without EU imposed restrictions or the Australian model which is based more on World Trade Organisation (WTO) rules without allowing complete free trade. Some experts suggest that the WTO option could be as damaging to Britain’s economy as a ‘no deal’ option although at the moment the Prime Minister says that Britain will prosper regardless.

BUS CRASH A DRAMATIC collision between two buses in Marbella left 10 people injured. The collision between two buses in Marbella which resulted in 10 being injured took place on Thursday January 30. The collision took place at around 3.15pm in the Avenida Ricardo Soriano, at the bus stop before the crossroads with Calle Calvario, in the direction of Malaga. Local Police have reported that it was a rear-end accident between a city bus, Line 1 and an intercity, articulated bus from Line 79. It is believed that the bus driver of the latter, didn’t brake on time, seemingly under the im-
pression that the other vehicle was going to leave the stop. The misjudgement resulted in a collision from behind which caused great alarm in the area as it occurred at one of the most central stops in the municipality during rush hour. The Emergency Health Service 112 were notified immediately and several ambulances were swiftly deployed to the area to assist, with the aid of the Local Police, the 10 injured, nine passengers and one of the drivers.

Cancer prevention EVERY year about 9,000 new cases of cancer are diagnosed in the province of Malaga. Around 1,800 of these could be avoided simply by adopting healthy lifestyle habits and attending early detection programmes, such as those for breast and colon checks. The Spanish Association Against Cancer (AECC) has focused its efforts on the idea that the key is to prevent pathology. “Cancer is no longer synonymous with death. It is a disease that is cured; with research and prevention we can overcome it,” said the president of the AECC in Malaga, Francisco Aguilar. The other area in which the association has greatly impacted is early detection. There are already programmes such as screening against breast and colon cancer. The mammograms are more established as a diagnostic method to address the first disease. However, specialists and the AECC continue to stress that people who receive a letter for the blood testing appointments go to get tested as a way to prevent colon cancer.

The trainer and his legal team filed a lawsuit on January 29 where they ask that the dismissal be declared void for ‘the violation of their rights’ after it occurred following the issuance of del Amo’s intimate video. In the brief, they ask for that he should be able to return to his job, as they consider he was unfairly dismissed, and claim the corresponding compensation after the ‘moral damages caused.’ On February 19, the two parties, coach and club, will meet to try to reach an agreement. The meeting will be at the Centre for Mediation Arbitration and Conciliation (CMAC). If it is not possible to reach conciliation between the two parties, the resolution of the case will be passed to a judge. Sánchez del Amo has publicly claimed on several occasions that his dismissal was ‘un-

matter, which can lead to suicides.” Malaga made a statement on January 11 explaining the reasons for their actions: “Based on the recently discovered
events that have not yet been verified, Malaga CF immediately suspends coach Victor Sánchez del Amo from his duties until a full investigation is carried out. “

To do this, “we are going to implement a Circular Economy Strategy and a regulatory package on waste that implements a model of sustainable management of our resources, which helps to minimise the generation of waste.” The president of Aspapel, Jordi Mercader, said
that “In 2019 four and a half million tons of used paper and cardboard will have been collected in Spain, and five million tons recycled. “Given its great recycling capacity, the Spanish paper industry guarantees the recycling of all paper and cardboard that is selectively collected in our country and that meets European quality standards.”
Paying homage ON Sunday, Torremolinos Town Council displayed acts of homage to the victims of ‘La Desbandá’ in a meeting in which the mayor of the town, José Ortiz, and the councillor for Culture, David Tejeiro, presented four plaques to two survivors and relatives of two of those who died in the massacre of the Malaga-Almeria road of 1937 during the Spanish Civil War. Subsequently, the municipal officials accompanied the members of the Association and Club Senderista La Desbandá, to lay flowers at the monument raised in tribute to the victims of the concentration
camp that existed in Torremolinos during the Franco regime. Ortiz has expressed his gratitude to those participating “for allowing a fact like this not to remain in a corner of history, in an educational act which also allows youth to show what happened, a reality that has been hidden for a long time.” In addition, Ortiz has recalled members of his family affected by Franco “and all those people who continue to suffer the horrors of war” and has referred to the rise of the extreme right, noting that “we cannot forget what it meant to our country and for Europe.”

Eye care advice for cancer sufferers AN optometrist is sharing her cancer story this World Cancer Day, to highlight the impact that the disease can have on your vision.
Judith Borland, optometrist and store director of Specsavers Ópticas in Fuengirola, is speaking out to offer support and advice to people who may be going through a similar battle. She was diagnosed with Stage 2 Breast Cancer in August 2017. She underwent a mastectomy and then had six months of chemotherapy to treat the cancer. In April 2018 she finished her chemotherapy and is currently cancer free and living a full and happy life. Judith explains that chemotherapy and surgically or medically induced early menopause, common with breast cancer patients, can affect the eyes. As can the medication tamoxifen, which is given to reduce the recurrence of the cancer. ‘As sufferers of breast

cancer will know, treatment often puts you into menopause. I was suffering from oestrogen positive cancer, therefore wasn’t allowed to use HRT to manage the symptoms, so I had to look for other ways to cope with them’ she says. ‘One of the symptoms of the menopause and also a side effect of the chemotherapy is dry eyes. You may feel like you have something in your eyes, or
that your eyes feel gritty. A side effect of dry eyes can also be excessive tearing or watering, but this doesn’t give you relief, as you’re lacking an important chemical needed to lubricate the eyes. ‘To deal with this problem, I used artificial tears or eye drops throughout my treatment and it made my eyes feel much better. I found the overnight artificial tears particularly helpful, but there are many options out there, so ask your optician or chemist what they recommend for you.’ Judith says another side effect of chemotherapy is losing your hair and many lose their eyebrows and eyelashes as well. ‘We have eyebrows and eyelashes to protect our eyes from the sun and also to block dust and particles from getting into our eyes,’ she says. ‘When you lose these, you are at higher risk of getting things in your eyes which can cause in-
fections and because your immune system is low, you will be less able to fight them. I had conjunctivitis several times during my treatment, but by using eye drops to lubricate and to flush out any particles, as well as taking antibiotics, I stayed on top of it.’ Judith says the medication tamoxifen - which helps to reduce the recurrence of cancer - can have an impact on your vision. Studies suggest it also increases your chance of developing cataracts. Judith says if anyone has concerns with their eyesight or notices any subtle changes, they should seek advice from their optician. ‘Although there’s not a lot you can do to stop cataracts developing, there is a link between exposure to UV light and a higher incidence of cataracts, so I recommend being very vigilant with wearing sunglasses all year round while you’re on tamoxifen,’ she says. ‘Chemotherapy makes us more sensitive to UV and so during and after treatment you should protect your eyes and skin against its effects. I wear polarised sunglasses or reactions lenses which change in the sunlight all year round
to protect my eyes.’ Judith says cataracts can be treated with straightforward surgery and does not cause lasting damage to your vision. ‘Ask your optician about how to deal with any side effects you are experiencing which are causing you vision problems or discomfort. We are here to help you to minimise these problems as much as possible,’ she says. ‘To those people who have recently been diagnosed and are going through chemotherapy I want to say that I know it’s awful, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Focus on recovering and staying positive, as there’s a good chance of a full recovery and leading a happy and normal life.’ Judith would be happy to speak to any cancer sufferers about issues with their eyes. Visit www.spec savers.es to find your nearest store. She will also be offering eye care advice and sharing her story with the Cancer Support Group at the Costa del Sol Hospital at 5pm on February 28.

MAYOR MEETS ARCHITECT: Father responsible for creating first tourist complex.
Golden age MAYOR of Torremolinos, José Ortiz, recently held a meeting with architect Carlos Lamela, son of architect Antonio Lamela who is responsible for the construction of the urbanisation La Nogalera. Lamela also promoted the first major tourist complex linked to the historic centre of Torremolinos in
1966. Ortiz has stated that the Lamela Architecture Studio is one of the most important, both internationally and in the history of Torremolinos. “Thanks to its contribution Torremolinos became a leading tourist destination in the 60’s with international projection. We talk about a heritage that is part of the cultural
wealth of our city and that we need to protect and value,” he said. Carlos Lamela affirmed, “For us, Torremolinos is a fundamental city, it was one of the places where my father worked and felt most comfortable, that served to launch the tourist architecture that gave rise to a golden age of Spanish architecture.”
What to do in the event of an emergency in Spain Living in Spain can bring with it an array of issues which may not have been encountered when living in the UK. There are lots of things to consider, and we are here to help try to make the transition and life in Spain a little easier by compiling a series of helpful facts and figures relating to a variety of topics.
IN Spain there are two groups which most people would understand as being ‘the police.’ The National Police (Policía Nacional) who have jurisdiction in the towns and cities and the Guardia Civil outside the towns and cities. The Local Police are employed by town halls; they basically deal with property found, and enforce local laws. Whilst they have a power of arrest, when exercised they must take the arrested person to the National Police or Guardia Civil according to where the c r i m e t o o k place. National Police and the Guardia Civil deal with all crimes, missing persons etc in their jurisdiction. The National Police also deal with all applications for immigration paperwork, NIEs, EU Citizens Registration and for non EU nationals, Residencia, etc. Throughout Europe the general number for all emergencies is 112. In Spain the operators speak English, French, German and Italian, in addition to Spanish and will liaise with the emergency services when the caller does not speak Spanish. No area code is needed and the number can be called from any phone, including
mobiles even those without a Spanish SIM card or any credit. You can also fax or SMS 112. The 24 hours national emergency numbers for Spanish speakers are: 091 - police, 061 - health emergencies 080 - firefighters. By calling 902 102 112, one can give details of certain crimes, including:burglaries, car theft, theft or loss of documents or belongings. The service is available in English 9am to 9pm seven days a week, and 9am to 3pm in French, German and Italian. Having given details, you must go to the National Police station which you nominate, within 48 hours to make the report using the information supplied on the telephone. In the case of robbery, where threat or force has been used, victims should call 112 for police attendance, or go to the police station to make a report. Other useful number are - 016, to report instances of gender violence. For problems at sea, the Maritime Rescue Service (Salvamento Seguridad Maritmo) can be contacted on 900 202 202, and the Red Cross (Cruz Rojo) on 902 222 292. There is also a Red Cross 24-hour helpline 900 100 333.
091 or 902 102 112 from 9am to 9pm

Cancer never sleeps
ALTHOUGH there have been some great steps taken to cure cancer, it is one disease that respects no barriers and can affect anyone regardless of age, colour, sex or financial status and still more people die than recover. It is estimated that there are 14 million new cases diagnosed each year and of those approximately nine million people are unlikely to recover. Tuesday February 4 has been deemed World Combat Cancer Day by the World Health Organisation and the Spanish Association against Cancer (AECC) branch covering Benalmadena and Torremolinos.

As it is such an important road, which had deteriorated over the years, it was necessary to use the best materials and to complete as quickly as possible in order to reduce congestion and inconvenience.
The work saw all of the cobbles and supporting layer removed, a new base laid and two layers of conglomerate support with a printed asphalt top coating to look like cobbles, specially treated to minimise problems from slipping and damage from fuel spill. Although the tender was agreed prior to Christmas, it was decided to delay work until after the celebrations and

It’s not just about the smell as the 11 vehicles controlled by the council which wash the streets are using a special liquid which also deodorises and contains a powerful degreaser which will help to remove stains left on the streets and pavements. The pleasant pine smell lasts for several hours and will be used by both the council lorries and those owned by the concessionary company which is

which resulted in the rider of a motorbike having to be evacuated by helicopter to hospital. Then, to show the diversity of the work they undertake, they rescued a British family including two young children who had gone for a walk at La Concha but became lost and had to call for help.

Gibraltar NEWS Over the years Gibraltar has survived and thrived THE next 11 months will be of extreme importance to the people of Gibraltar who have managed to survive as a tiny enclave on the Iberian Peninsula whilst embracing the UK as their parent. For more than 300 years it has had direct links with Britain and in that time it has seen many good but equally many difficult times. The Spanish government has claimed that it is an anomaly and should be part of Spain both politically as well as geographically and the fact is that despite English being the official language of the Rock, most family groups revert to Spanish as their main language at home. What is clear however is that regardless of linguistic preferences, the people of Gibraltar do not consider themselves to be Spanish but in all truth, they aren’t British either. They are a mixture of different races, religions and opinions which make them Gibraltarians and make no mistake there are still people alive who remember

The Commonwealth flag has now replaced the EU flag at the border. the chaos and carnage of the Civil War which saw families and friends broken apart by the closure of the border and quite significant sums of money lost by those who had investments in Spain. Britain wasn’t the best of friends during the Second World War as it was desperate to ship the civilian population away from the Rock and after being thrown out of Morocco, it was only the pleas of the then Governor that allowed the Gibraltarians back onto the Rock before they were shipped off again to Jamaica, London and Madeira having to brave seas infested by U Boats and the German Navy. When they were returned,
they managed to fight for an element of self-determination and once that was achieved, Franco closed the border as penance for not wanting to cede sovereignty to Spain. Life went on with Moroccans replacing the Spaniards who worked in Gibraltar and although there was no tourism of any importance, people came and went when it suited them as there is quite a lot of water surrounding Gibraltar and smuggling helped to ease some of the financial pain. When Spain joined the European Union, it did so on the condition that the border would remain open and with odd
crackdowns on extra customs checks movement has generally been relatively smooth. Gibraltar is an important source of revenue for the Campo de Gibraltar as it employs thousands of Spaniards, it also sees expatriate workers living in Spain and working in Gibraltar who bring income to the area and many Gibraltarians not only have properties in Spain but also do a lot of shopping there. When the UK Brexit referendum took place, the Gibraltarians voted overwhelmingly to stay in the EU but that is not to be and last Friday, in a special ceremony at the border, the EU flag was run down the flagpole to the sound of the European Union anthem Ode to Joy and was replaced by the Commonwealth flag. In a long speech, the Chief Minister Fabian Picardo encapsulated the feelings of the majority of Gibraltarians: “So tonight, let’s not pretend to be happy. Let’s be clear this is not our choice. But let us also look to the future with great optimism and with the strongest confidence.”
Accredited by the UN SEVEN Gibraltar teachers have successfully attended the UN Climate Change Teacher Academy in association with the One United Nations Climate Change Learning Partnership. As accredited Climate Change Teachers, they can now deliver up-todate climate change lessons to all pupils and will be able to encourage and generate social innovation, and prepare today’s youth to protect the planet. Being amongst the first international teachers to gain accreditation, Bayside, Westside and St Bernard’s Upper Primary Schools have been marked on the teachers’ Climate Change World map of the United Nations. They will be working alongside 80 international schools in an initial trial of the course which will eventually include the UK. This will cover topics including climate change science, gender and the environment, children and climate change, cities and climate change, and human health.
Spanish Foreign Minister speaks AS Boris Johnson told the world that Gibraltar would be part of the ongoing withdrawal negotiations with the European Union, the Spanish Foreign Minister Arancha González Laya said that the Spanish stance is to ensure shared prosperity for Gibraltar and the surrounding region. In a radio interview she declined to talk about joint sovereignty saying that this was a conversation for another day as the important thing was to resolve the day-to-day affairs of those in the region affected by Brexit. She also confirmed that the Spanish government was happy to work with Gibraltar on such issues as frontier, police co-operation and taxation, but warned it was important to ensure there was no unfair competition in customs or fiscal Credit: La Moncloa flickr issues.

Diesel sales dropping
AT one time, the Spanish govern ment was in favour of the use of diesel fuel and taxes were (and still are at the moment) lower than that of leaded petrol which encouraged the sale of diesel vehi cles. Now however, as worldwide opinion is that diesel is more pol luting than lead free fuel, sales of diesel fuel in Spain have dropped by 0.4 per cent in 2019 for the first time in five years according to the Corporation for Strategic Reserves of Petroleum Products (Cores).

Spanish economy is ok THERE is some good news and bad news for the Spanish economy following a report published by the National Institute of Statistics (INE) which shows that it grew by 2 per cent in 2019. The bad news is that government forecasts called for a 2.1 per cent increase but the good news is that the Bank of Spain and the Interna tional Monetary Fund got it spot on and the European Commission ex pected it to be as low as 1.9 per cent. The figures are provisional and
By John Smith may vary slightly before being con firmed by the end of March but one thing is sure, that this is the slowest rate of growth for the economy since 2014. For six years now the GDP has shown an increase, but there is no doubt that the increase is slowing down and for 2020 and 2021, fore casts are suggesting that it will be static at 1.6 per cent each year. Whilst exports continue to rise and help the figures dramatically, the home market is not just stag nant but is actually losing ground
even though unemployment con tinues to reduce. Construction seems to be the weakest link with a significant downturn even though skylines across the country are still dotted with high rise cranes so there is some fear that what appeared to be a thriving area in new builds could see over supply and subse quent excess housing stock. Despite everything, most banks seem to be coining in the profits both at home and abroad and their activities have helped to keep the economy rising.
FOLLOWING ongoing losses, UK clothing store French Connection put itself up for sale over a year ago but had no buyers lined up. Having reviewed strategy which will see cost cutting, dis posal of some stores and an in crease in investment on its on line business, it has now announced that it is no longer for sale. It believes that losses to the end of 2019 will be between £1 (€1.15) million and £2 (€2.3) mil lion which compares favourably against 2018 losses of £9.3 (€10.7) million.

I have notified my insurance company but they are not willing to replace the items. I am over 80 years old and live alone. Should I have com plained directly to the electric company as the insur ance company are not willing to pay? K B (Costa Blanca) Yes, you should have claimed direct YOU AND THE ly from the electric LAW IN SPAIN company. The big electric companies are legally responsible for damages caused by power surges or by outages that last long enough so that food spoils in the freezer. The companies pay out millions of euros every year to customers who have suffered. You will need complete documentation on the time of the surge, and on the items that were ruined. Un less you feel confident that you can present your claim in proper form, I suggest you consult a Spanish ‘gestoria’ or other professional to handle it for you.

GBP/EUR tumbles from three-year high ASK THE EXPERT Peter Loveday
Contact me at euroweekly@currenciesdirect.com
STAYING up-to-date with the latest currency news can help you time your transfers effectively, so find out what you should be looking out for over the next couple of weeks… Latest currency news The GBP/EUR exchange rate soared to a threeyear high last De cember as UK PM Boris Johnson se cured a comfortable majority in the UK General Election. However, the pound didn’t have a great end to the year, with GBP/EUR hitting lows of €1.14 be fore stabilising around €1.17. EUR/GBP, meanwhile, fluctuated between €0.84 and €0.87 while GBP/USD drifted to $1.30.
CURRENCY NEWS: The pound didn’t have a great end to the year. What’s been happening? Sterling’s fall from grace came swiftly after the Conservative’s election victory, as Boris Johnson amended his EU withdrawal bill to legally block any extension to the Brexit transition period past De cember 2020. This effectively leaves Johnson with just 11 months in which to ne gotiate a new trade deal with the
EU or leave the UK to face a nodeal Brexit at the end of the year. This sparked significant concern amongst GBP investors who had hoped the passing of Johnson’s withdrawal bill would help to bring more clarity to Brexit. While the spectre of Brexit con tinues to hang over Sterling, the currency has also been feeling the heat thanks to the rising odds of
the BoE cutting interest rates in the near future. Several BoE policymakers have hinted in recent weeks about a pos sible rate, including Governor Mark Carney who said the bank would re spond ‘promptly’ if economic weak ness persisted. This speculation has been fuelled by a run of underwhelming UK da ta, including a surprise contraction of growth in November and the lowest inflation reading in over threeyears. The euro, meanwhile has been fluctuating in response to mixed domestic data, with manufacturing remaining in contraction territory but inflation edging towards the Eu ropean Central Bank’s (ECB) target. What do you need to look out for? Looking ahead, Brexit develop ments and Bank of England (BoE) interest rate speculation are likely to remain the main catalysts of movement in the pound over the
next four weeks. The UK is all set to leave the EU on January 31 and this will no doubt thrust Brexit back into the spotlight and limit upside in GBP exchange rates. German data will remain one of the biggest causes of euro move ment in the weeks ahead. If fears for the country’s growth outlook grow, the common currency could be pressured lower. As it stands, the outlook for the GBP/EUR exchange rate is neutral negative at the start of 2020.

LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT ONE extremely enlightening, and somewhat disquieting fact to emerge from this Coronavirus outbreak, is how incredibly easy it was for the Chinese authorities to shut down 10 cities. This actually involved some 33 million inhabitants. That is almost half of the whole United Kingdom - and the communist hierarchy managed to lock them all down almost overnight. Can you imagine trying to close down half the UK at that speed? It would take a fortnight’s debate in parliament before you could even begin. The Chinese then proceeded to build two new hospitals in a week. The UK could take up to 10 years to even get planning permission! Mind you, that of course is how a dictatorship works; heaven forbid the democratic countries of the world being taken over by despots of this nature. And frankly, that’s
FEATURE
Diet needs changing
CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK: Ten cities have been shut down.
why the Chinese leaders worry me. If they have this sort of hold over so many people and decided to galvanise them onto a war footing, we could have half a billion on the doorstep before you could say Chicken
Chow Mein. Bearing all this in mind, I think that allowing China, with its utterly alien and therefore completely unpredictable society to install a cyber system throughout the whole of the United Kingdom is
utter madness. If their inscrutable leaders don’t take the opportunity to insert some form of ‘bug’ into the Huawei project, I’ll eat my bat soup. Talking of which, have you seen the recent videos on social media showing what these people actually do eat!? Basically they scoff on just about anything. Dogs, cats, monkeys, live mice, living fish, rats, fried excretion and human fetuses - to name but a few. Some of the stuff they serve up in their restaurants makes the ‘I’m A Celebrity’ trials look like a Jamie Oliver gourmet night! Is it any wonder this virus has jumped from animals to humans? If they continue gorging on this type of menu, I should think there are plenty, even more deadly diseases just waiting to cross over. It wouldn’t surprise me if AIDS didn’t originate from somewhere in this inscrutable Far
Eastern direction either. No, I think we should be very wary of the Chinese. Have you ever had an argument with a waiter in a Chinese restaurant? It doesn’t take much for the whole staff to join in and the chef to appear with a meat cleaver. Don’t take my word for it. This is a quote from prophesies of old Mother Shipton in the 15th century. ‘And Christian one fights Christian two. And nations sigh, yet nothing do. And yellow men great power gain, from mighty bear (Russia?) with whom they’ve lain.’ Unquote. I also think the numbers of fatalities that have resulted from this virus are far higher than they are actually divulging. Let’s just hope the whole horror trip is over soon and the Chinese authorities decree a change in their nation’s diet habits. Ah So. Keep the faith Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com

TIME-WASTING HOAX CALLS NORA JOHNSON
HOAX CALLS: Block other members of the public from calling 999.
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
THIS week, I’m writing about the NHS, charities and timewasting 999 phone calls. What’s the connection, I hear you say. Well, bear with me, but if you can’t stomach any further mention of the NHS or charities, go and have a cup of tea or flick ahead to the crossword page... According to press reports, A&E waiting times in UK hospitals are at their worst on record as the NHS is coming under increasingly intense pressure. The grim statistics are likely to add to growing fears that services could really struggle to cope this winter with the annual spike in demand all the more since the coronavirus outbreak has been getting worse. As for charities, according to the think tank, New Philanthropy Capital, they’re becoming more and more numerous in affluent areas of the UK instead of where they’re really needed. The north-south charity deficit is
highlighted by figures showing that, per 1,000 population, the affluent Cotswolds has nine times as many charities as Blackpool England’s most deprived local authority - which has just 0.6. Some things don’t change, though - for the UK emergency services. And that’s the number of bizarre/ hoax 999 calls made to it. How about a woman complaining that she’d been sent three saveloy and chips from the chip shop instead of one? Or a man asking for the time, and another complaining about a packet of biscuits being out of date? The Met has released audio of some of these bizarre calls with a plea for people to use 999 for genuine emergencies only. Chief Supt David Jackson said nuisance calls
were a “huge waste” of resources, adding: “These hoax calls block the number from other members of the public who could be calling 999 in a real emergency, keeping people in danger waiting for longer and putting lives at risk.” The Met’s call handlers identified 22,491 hoax 999 calls in the first 11 months of 2019. In 1937, in just the first week of the 999 service, there were 91 hoax calls! As I said, little change there, then. Nora Johnson’s crime thrillers ‘Betrayal,’ ‘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.nora-johnson.net) available online. All profits to Costa del Sol Cudeca cancer charity.

40th Anniversary of Danish church CONSULAR MATTERS I AM always proud to manage the huge community of expat Danish people in Andalucia and Extremadura. The Danish colony on the Costa del Sol is of approximately 30,000 people who come from a country with a population of 5.5. million. As Consul and lawyer, I am used to attending many cultural, institutional and social events; but for this particular one, I was very proud to attend, together with the Ambassador for Denmark in Spain Mr Jens Kisling, last Saturday January 26, the 40th anniversary of the Danish Church of Málaga West Coast. The Danske Kirke øst for Málaga has been on the Costa Del Sol since the year 1980, and is, obviously, an important part of the Danish community. As Dan-
Mr Jens Kisling, Danish Ambassador for Spain, and Ms Marisa Moreno Castillo, Danish Consul for Andalucía and Extremadura. ish Consul, I am keen to support all the needs of the expat group, including their religious ones, of course. The Consulate has regular activities such as issuing passports, helping Danish businesses in Spain and net-
working relations with Spanish and Danish businesses; however religion is an important part in the lives of a great number of people, so we are more than happy to support them as much as possible.
As part of the events organised by the Danish Church (Den Danske Kirke øst for Málaga) to celebrate its 40th anniversary, the Ambassador and I were invited to attend a mass followed by a dinner at the fabulous Cuevas de Nerja restaurant. We had a chance to meet and talk with more than 100 attendees who told us about their experiences, concerns and general life in Spain. As part of the celebrations, we were also treated to a flamenco dancing exhibition which the Ambassador and I greatly enjoyed. The Danish Church mass is currently being officiated at the Catholic Church, who has allowed their place of worship to be used by the Danish priest and expats to celebrate their service and also have the use of their facilities. This is a very true indicator of the close relationship that exists between the Danish expats and Spanish society in general.
The Danske Kirke ost for Málaga is not only a place of religious worships, but also strives to promote social, cultural and charitable activities such as organising cinema film forums (Danish and Spanish films). At some point in the past the Church decided to separate their religious activities from the social ones, and a few years ago created the Danish Club of Torre Del Mar (Velez-Málaga). They also host musical events and organise visits to other cities in Andalucia. In addition, they hold a traditional Danish Christmas market, a real home from home experience in Spain. So, in my capacity as Danish Consul, I want to congratulate the Danish Church in its 40th anniversary, I hope they continue their service to the local community and support the close relationship with the Spanish community on the Costa Del Sol.

Nightmare receptionists MIKE SENKER IN MY OPINION Views of a Grumpy Old Man WHAT is it with doctor’s receptionists? I remember when I was living in the UK how, on the rare occasion I had to go to the doctor, it was a nightmare. They never wanted to let you have an appointment. They’d ask all sorts of very personal questions in front of the whole waiting room. They’d be generally rude and very possessive over ‘their’ boss. Apparently, I should know when I am going to need help so I can make an appointment two weeks in advance. And trying to make an appointment by ‘phone required constant redial just to be able to get through. So I love the fact that here you can go online and make your appointment yourself and bypass the dreaded receptionist. That was until I had an appointment with a specialist and unfortunately missed it because I was in
hospital at the time. I thought nothing of it. I let the doctor know because Mrs S turned up and told her I couldn’t make it and she said she wanted to see me when I came out of hospital. So we went to make an appointment a few days later and the receptionist said that on my notes the doctor wanted to see me every six months. Therefore I couldn’t have an appointment before even after explaining what had happened. She would have absolutely none of it and finally said if it was an emergency go to A & E. She wouldn’t even ask the doctor if she wanted to see me. So some things never change. I’m still trying, but it’s not easy. Any ideas? I might have mentioned this before but someone has to explain to me why it is OK for a woman to say to another woman that she looks fabulous in her outfit but as a bloke I can’t? Why can’t men compliment women the same as other women do. Where’s the equality? Why can’t I say your hair looks great today, have you had it cut? Is that creepy? But if her female friend says it it’s OK. So ladies if I do see you I’m sorry I have to pretend that I haven’t noticed how lovely you look, but I have really.

BRAVE CHOICE WHY on earth do some people get so worked up about migrants, don’t they realise they are migrants themselves? I was unfortunately witness to a group of lads verbally abusing some ‘Lookie Lookie’ men, it was pretty shameful. It made me embarrassed to be British. Those people rescued in boats are putting their lives at risk because their life is so unbearable that they choose to come here for a better life, just like expats. In some ways, it could be seen as very brave. It’s time to stop using such narrow-minded and racist language on such a sensitive issue, especially when people are risking their lives and dying just for the chance for opportunities that the rest of us take for granted. Being lucky in which part of the world you were born in doesn’t give you the right to demean those less fortunate. Many expats come to Spain and make no effort at all to adapt to the culture and way of life. Whatever their opinion of the migrant situation, they should get off their ignorant high horses and have a bit of humanity. A disappointed Carol Evans
Meat less CORONAVIRUS, swine flu, mad cow disease… live animals are the largest source of infection. The more you are going to move animals, the more you run the risk that diseases will be spread through these animals. Animal trade is an effective way of introducing, maintaining and spreading animal diseases, as observed with the spread of different strains of foot and mouth disease in Africa and Asia. The real issue is in many of the low-income countries there are new opportunities for money to be made which then includes increased meat demand. If the human race were to change its diet to meat free this situation would fade. Each person who goes vegan saves nearly 200 animals every year from daily suffering and a terrifying death: Filthy factory farms, abattoirs, and meat markets threaten the health of every human being on the planet.

Scared to go home I AM an avid reader of the Euro Weekly News and have been since I moved to Spain. With thoughts on moving back to my home town of London after a few years of unsuccessfully jumping between underpaid jobs, I find myself pretty scared as to what is happening there. I’m not naive enough to believe there has never been any crime, of course, there was always a little dependent on area. However, on reading the news and
HAVE YOUR SAY
your Facebook page it seems like it has become an all-out warzone. Is it a sign of the times that every week there is a fatal shooting or stabbing mostly gangrelated? While everything should be done to put a stop to these type of offences, it makes me wonder how did a situation that used to be a minority of people involved in drug-related and gang activity become a majority? I fear for my wife and my kids that I must now take them from somewhere we had considered would have been a paradise and our dream back to something that might put their lives in danger. Concerned, Mark Wallis

OUR VIEW
No early release WITH news this weekend of another Islamist terrorist attack in London, Prime Minister Boris Johnson is under attack and being pushed for answers as to why an Islamist terrorist was freed from prison early allowing him to commit a bloody atrocity within days, despite his own pleas to be kept behind bars for longer. When the London Bridge terror attack happened in November Johnson promised he would end automatic early release for terrorists. However, he is again facing anger about the ‘lack of progress’ with the changes leaving the capital open to another attack just months later. Sudesh Amman walked free last week, halfway through a three year and four-month sentence for 13 terror offences. On Sunday he rampaged through Streatham high street, stabbing two before he was shot dead. The Queen’s Speech in December committed to bringing forward legislation to remove the possibility of early release for the most dangerous offenders. However, the Counter-Terrorism Bill that would bring the measures into force has yet to be published and there is no timetable for it to start going through Parliament. Johnson’s recent comments echoed those made after London’s last terror attack when two people were killed by convicted terrorist Usman Khan in December. Khan, 28, had been attending a prisoner rehabilitation event after being released on licence in December 2018. Last month details of The Counter-Terrorism Bill were released. They included forcing dangerous terrorists who receive extended sentences to serve the whole time behind bars and stopping early release from jail for those classed as dangerous.

A VIRUS KILLING DOGS!: UK Vets warn of Impending Epidemic COMMENTS FROM FACEBOOK
My mum’s dog had this last week here in Spain. Exactly the same symptoms, lethargy, weakness, vomiting, diarrhoea, not eating, he was seen and had antibiotic injection and after four days is almost himself again. Just to warn people here in Spain too. Emily Johnson

YOUR STARS FOR NEXT 7 DAYS
It is difficult to avoid repeating mistakes made in the past. Your approach to certain situations has not changed and therein lies the problem. Someone who blames you for a mistake shows ignorance but that does not make it less upsetting.
PISCES (February 20 - March 20) Who is trying to push you into a corner? Maybe it is being done so subtly that you have not even noticed. Who wants a decision from you? Appear to take pressure lightly and not give in to an irritation. There is some jealousy this week but refuse to be drawn into petty matters..
ARIES (March 21 - April 20) A rather slow start to the week leads you to feel bored but be assured that the weekend will be far from dull. A recent conversation or correspondence with an old friend leads to unexpected contact.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) Everything on the home front is emphasised and there will be a flurry of activity. Get others involved in any changes. Work in the garden or painting is much more enjoyable and half the work if you enlist the help of someone you get on well with.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) When discussing a holiday with others, be aware that agreement is not always easily met. Although you are not inclined to compromise, it is necessary to go with the majority decision.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) After the 22nd it is much easier to see the path ahead. This is particularly true of a financial situation, so there's no sense in fussing until you understand what needs to be done. Someone who has in the past been unco-operative is more flexible. You wonder at this and try to see an ulterior motive, but it is most likely that they have seen the error of their past actions. Is it possible for you to take them on trust?
LEO (July 24 - August 23) Your attention is needed on more than one front, and some
decisions are at odds with your personal thoughts and attitudes. Being reminded that 'business is business' does nothing to relieve your conscience. You may have to upset someone by telling the truth, which may affect your longer-term finances but do you really have any choice?
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23)
‘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.’ Cartoon by Audrey Quinton www.audreyq.co.uk
Are you willing to take a risk on someone who has let you down before? Looking into their recent past is likely to tip the balance. What you find shows clearly if there has been a change of heart on their part or if they are trying to pull the wool over your eyes.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) A disagreement with a friend upsets you but is short-lived. To avoid such a situation in the future, look at how you should have dealt with it. There is always something to know that guides us to a better position. It will make you smile that someone has taken you for a fool because you have the last laugh.

A great feeling of joy comes over you more than once in the week ahead. Your inner child has been set free, and this is likely to be because of recent restrictions, which are now lifted. Do not feel guilty about this because it is a choice that will serve you well in the future. Right now, things may seem like a bit of an effort for small reward.

SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) Travel arrangements may have to be changed at the last minute. Do not fret, however, because success is more likely later in the month. During a dream, or when reading a book, an idea comes to you. Can this really make a difference to your future? You may need to act quickly to start a new project but progress will require patience.

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) The need to plan ahead is frustrating when you know exactly what ought to be going on. Patience is something that you need to cultivate, or you risk upsetting someone close. Spending time with a colleague makes you realise how good things could be, but a lot of effort is involved. Pushing ahead does not guarantee results.

JUST shy of 18, Deborah Orr left Motherwell to go to university. It was a decision her mother railed against from the moment the idea was raised. Win’s every choice was determined by the men in her life. And strangely, she wanted the same for her daughter. Attending university wasn’t for the likes of the Orr family. Worse still, it would mean leaving Win behind - and Win wanted Deborah with her at all times. But while she managed to escape, Deborah’s severing from her family was only superficial. She continued to travel back to Motherwell, fantasising about the day that Win might come to accept her as good enough. Motherwell is a sharp, candid and humorous memoir about a shadow cast when the core relationship in your life compromises every effort you make to become an individual.

Shock to the system
IT may have been advice given to you on many occasions and for different reasons, but taking an ice-cold shower can actually offer you surprising health benefits. A burst of cold water in the morning can increase alertness. Even though the thought of this may horrify you, the shock of the cold water forces you to
breathe more deeply which, in turn, increases your overall oxygen intake. It also causes your heart rate to increase which pumps blood more efficiently through your entire body. This improved blood circulation can help to combat some skin problems and boost your overall heart health. It can also lower blood pressure,
clear blocked arteries and improves immunity. A study in England showed that regular cold showers trigger an increase in the metabolic speed rate and the number of white blood cells in the body, which then help fight diseases. The whole experience can give you a natural dose of energy for the day. They have also been found to relieve symptoms of depression by stimulating ‘the blue spot’ on the brain that releases noradrenaline, a chemical which plays a role in alleviating depression. In addition, one of the most natural ways to maintain your appearance is with cold showers. Hot water has the tendency to dry your skin out
HEALTH BENEFITS: Cold showers increases alertness. whilst cold water will tighten your cuticles and pores, which will prevent
them from getting clogged. Cold water can also
seal the pores in the skin and scalp too, preventing dirt from getting in.

MARBELLA MOMENTS BY NICOLE KING NO-ONE likes the police controls in Spain; even if you’ve got all your paperwork, car and life in order it can still be quite intimidating, particularly when faced with armed police and spikes on the road. This worry has come up every year at our United Nationalities of Marbella Summits. It is an unusual and uncomfortable experience, filling even the innocent with a sense of anxiety. Resulting from these concerns we managed to get the four free taxis a month policy offered by Linea Directa extended to include everyone in our international community who has an NIE and lives in the province of Malaga, as well as the launch of our #ZeroHero incentive to reward the designated driver with free soft drinks. If we haven’t been drinking when going through a control, logically the experience will be

OUT OF CONTROL
POLICE CONTROLS: Remember they are just doing their job. a routine one, with less to fear. Nonetheless whatever the circumstances it’s never a good idea to panic or avoid a control. Not only is it a fineable offence it can turn into quite an ordeal as my kids found out last week when finding themselves being chased down by the National Police! The controls take quite a while to set up and obviously
the law enforcement officers aren’t out to ruin our day, quite the contrary. Any touristic area attracts those looking to have a good time and those who wish to take advantage of our guards being down, so if we act untowardly this can create confusion. As far as my kids were concerned it had been a long day; they’d worked, they’d picked
up shopping after work and now, baby in car, wanted to get home as quickly as possible. Seeing a police control down the hill at the next roundabout they decided to do a Uturn, simply opting for an alternative route home. In their minds controls are slow, they take up time and have nothing to do with them. For the policemen down the
EWN 67
hill however the story line was quite different. Within minutes the whole force of the patrol was chasing behind them, sirens blaring and weapons a flourish, coming to a screeching halt in front of their car. I’m so grateful at least the baby was there to help soften the moment as I’m sure the police were not happy they’d packed everything up in alarm to chase down a bunch of youngsters suffering from a case of ‘TGIF.’ Fortunately the police did react quickly when seeing the reality of the situation and commended the kids for having slowed down when they realised what was happening; but also severely reprimanding them for their extreme lack in judgement. I know my kids learnt their lesson, one I thought worth sharing so you also know that when faced with the police remember they are just doing their job: be polite at all times, don’t lie or make up excuses and if faced with it, don’t trying getting out of the control!

EAT WITH ELLIS
One Sauce, two meals! LIKE a lot of people, every now and then I have the craving for something a bit spicy with big flavours. Spicy and fragrant is the way I like to go, not too hot, not something that will strip the taste buds from the tongue, but something that will gently warm and fill my mouth with interesting flavours. Once made, a curry sauce will last for days and can provide the base for a couple of very different meals. This one is very simple and I got two suppers in a week from it. A chicken biryani and fish curry, made with some brilliant frozen hake fillets. In a frying pan soften some finely chopped onions. Once they start to colour add some garlic and grated ginger. After another minute add a teaspoon of garam masala and chilli powder. Add a small amount of water to loosen the mixture, then a small carton of tomato passata. Season with salt and pepper and let it thicken and putter away for about 10 mins.
Add a tablespoon of plain yoghurt and mix in a cube of butter to finish. The sauce is now ready. I had it with some cubes of chicken breast that I’d marinated in yoghurt and spices then cooked under the grill and added to some basmati rice with a couple of spoons of the sauce. A few days later I gently poached some chunks of defrosted hake and added some blanched green beans. Enjoy!

This week Celebrity Chef & Fellow Master Chef Steven Saunders, proprietor of The Little Geranium in La Cala prepares his famous duck salad fit for a Valentine Princess!
A special Valentine’s starter Steven Saunders FMCGB The Little Geranium La Cala de Mijas & Marbella www.thelittlegeranium.com IN last week’s article I wrote the first part of cooking your own amazing Valentine’s dinner at home. If you missed it that recipe is on line at www.euro weeklynews.com. This week I am sharing a rather special Valentine’s starter. IT was 1993 and on the menu we had a crispy duck salad starter and everyone loved it. The previous year in or around November 1992, Princess Diana had been in for lunch at The Pink Geranium in Cambridgeshire and she had chosen the duck salad although she usually only ate fish, chicken and vegetarian food. She told us that she would eat red meat occasionally if it was very well done. “It’s very
well done,” the waiter explained “it’s slow cooked for three hours and then crispy fried.. “Perfect,” Diana said, “I will try it!” After lunch she called me over to speak with her. “Steven” she said, “never take the duck dish off the menu because it is fantastic!” I laughed and agreed that I wouldn’t. I did think about calling it Princess Diana’s Crispy Duck on the menu, but that would be tacky and if I had she may never have returned, so I kept it an in-house secret. I have always offered a special Valentine’s menu for the whole week of Valentine’s as the day itself always fills up really quickly and to be honest the day before or even the day after Valentine’s is just as good, if not better, as there are less people. On one of these days we had a call from Buckingham Palace to say that a member of the Royal Family would like a table
Fashion stylist Mark Heyes also a fan of my famous duck salad. Valentine’s week. I had expected it to be for Princess Diana but in fact it was for Prince Andrew with a male colleague. So whilst couples were romancing we had special Royal guests in the restaurant… two men! On the exact same night we also had Jeffrey Archer booked in with his wife Mary. They often visited and had their usual table
by the window which was called Harry’s table (not named after Prince Harry!), Prince Andrew’s guest had ordered the duck salad to start with and so had Mary, Jeffrey’s wife. The waitress took both tables together on the tray and so that she didn’t get confused we told her, this one is for Mary and the other one is for Prince Andrew’s guest. The waitress was a bubbly girl, a bit zany. Her name was Polly and she always reminded me of Polly from Fawlty Towers, she was a bit naïve, professional, but easily confused. Off she went and delivered the salads. “Here is Diana’s salad,” she said. Prince Andrew looked up and said “Diana? Why is it called Diana’s salad?” “Ah,” said Polly. “It’s because we have a special guest called Diana who always orders this salad, she’s a friend of the Archers.” (Lying sweetly just like Polly from Fawlty Towers would!) When they told me the story in the kitchen I nearly had a
heart attack! Diana’s salad was our in-house secret like the table which the Royals often sat at which we called the Royal Box, but we had never disclosed that to the Royals, we just called it table one. On my hands and knees in the kitchen, I said “why the fudge did you mention the Archers?” Polly explained that she got in a muddle and looked around and just saw the Archers. “Oh Jesus,” I said!! “We have probably got away with it,” Polly said, “don’t worry.” Anyway the evening went well and as guests were leaving Prince Andrew was talking to Jeffrey Archer. “I loved your friend Diana’s duck salad,” he said. “Diana?” Jeffrey said, “Who is Diana?” “Can’t be Charles’ Diana” Jeffrey laughed, “Because she is a vegetarian!” They all chuckled away, whilst I covered my head in a kitchen tea towel unable to face them!

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 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.

Split personality hybrid VAUXHALL is continuing its journey towards electrification with the new Grandland X Hybrid4 all-wheel drive plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. This is Vauxhall’s first-ever plug-in hybrid and features state-of-the-art plug-in hybrid technology. The car’s powertrain comprises a 200hp, 1.6-litre turbocharged direct injection four-cylinder petrol engine and an electric drive system with two electric motors, all-wheel drive and a 13.2kWh lithium-ion battery. Together, the Euro 6d-TEMP-compliant petrol engine and electric motors produce up to 300hp, and offer a combined fuel consumption of 204mpg, emitting just 34g/km CO2. The Grandland achieves 060 mph in just 5.9 seconds. The front electric motor is coupled to an electrified eight-speed automatic transmission, while the second motor and differential are integrated into the electrically-powered rear axle, providing all-wheel traction on demand. Four driving modes are available, electric, hybrid, AWD and Sport. In pure electric mode, the car has a range of 35 miles. In hybrid mode, the car automatically se-
lects the most efficient method of propulsion. When travelling at low speeds, for example, the system switches to electric mode for zero-emission driving. The Grandland X Hybrid4 comes with a 3.7kW on-board charger, with an optional 7.4kW version also available. The ‘e-Save’ section of the infotainment system allows the driver to determine how much battery energy needs to be reserved to ensure that the vehicle reaches its destination when in a zero-emissions zone. The driver can choose to save six or 12 miles of range, or reserve all of the battery energy. Drivers can access ‘e-Save’ via the infotainment system. In addition, regenerative braking captures kinetic energy during deceleration that would otherwise be dissipated as heat. The customer can choose from two recuperation modes that turn the electric motors into generators, allowing electrical energy to be returned to the battery and stored. VAUXHALL’S JOURNEY: State-of-the-art technology.
Sexy supermini THE new Peugeot 208 GT Line Puretech 130 is an eyecatching new supermini featuring exterior styling which could fairly be described as radical for the supermini market. ‘Lion claw’ daytime running lights, conspicuous three-digit badge on the nose, bulging wheel arches, cartoonish proportions and bright mustard-yellow paint make it stand out from its contemporaries. While the previous 208 looked normal inside, the new model splashes out. A tiny oblong steering wheel sits below a new 3D version of Peugeot’s digital instrument display. On your left is a 10.0in infotainment touchscreen above a row of pianokey-style shortcut buttons. The display itself is clear and simple reacting to your inputs with little delay. The 208 steers in a much similar manner to the more expensive Peugeot models giving direct control that makes the 208 easy to
manoeuvre around town. On its passive suspension and torsion-beam rear, the 208 smooths over potholes and ridges in urban settings with surprising finesse. The PSA Group’s turbocharged 1.2-litre threecylinder engine, with 129bhp, makes the 208 surprisingly pacey. So much so, you probably wouldn’t be left wanting for power too much with the Puretech 100, with 99bhp. An added benefit would be the option of a six-speed manual gearbox. With the Puretech 130, you’re limited to an eightspeed automatic.
To further improve efficiency, the Grandland X Hybrid4 features a regenerative braking system, which can increase the electric range by up to 10 per cent. Continuing Vauxhall’s reputation for class-leading on-board technology, the Grandland features the new Vauxhall Connect telematics service. This includes Live Navigation as well as the ability to check key vehicle data via an app. Direct connection w i t h road-
side assistance provides the driver and passengers with additional peace-ofmind. Help can be reached within seconds by pressing the red button on the centre console. If the seatbelt tensioners or the airbags are deployed, the emergency call is activated automatically. The Grandland X Hybrid4 is a key part of Vauxhall’s commitment to electrifying its entire product portfolio by 2024.

CCCA Starts 2020 in Style! M
MOTORING Classic Car Club of Andalucía
www.euroweeklynews.com
6 - 12 February 2020
EMBERS and guests of the Classic Car Club of Andalucia were delighted to get their year off to a flying start this January. After what has seemed like an interminable festive season it was good to start the Club’s 2020 activities, all of which were very well supported. The first thing was a ‘reunion’ dinner at Treetops Restaurante to get the year started, this preceeding the Club’s first classic car run of the year which was to start from Venta Los Almendros, just above San Pedro on the Ronda road. Organiser, Ian Giles, was both surprised and delighted with the 100 or so members and their guests who turned up at the Start on a warm and sunny January Saturday morning full of enthusiasm and raring to go! And what a fabulous collection of cars parked outside the Venta waiting for the ‘Off.’ Classics, Prestige and Sports cars of all shapes, sizes and manufacture gleamed in the warm sunshine as their owners enjoyed the chance to reunite with fellow enthusiasts over coffee and bacon sarnis. Both Start and Finish venues for these events can be very difficult to find as these places have to be able to cope not only with around 100 people wanting food and refreshments but also, and perhaps equally important, they need to be able to provide parking for around 50 valuable, shiny classic and prestige cars! As the Club has grown so has its needs… Needless to say, the registration, signing on and payments process was quite a busy one and the Club is so lucky to have

the support of a small band of ladies who turn out every month to administer this. All this business successfully completed, the registration desk closed at 10.45 or thereabouts as participants studied their Tulip Roadbooks and waited for a short briefing from Club President and event organiser, Ian Giles.

What made that special was the superb venue, a marvellous location on the beach, great food and great company whilst also enjoying the wonderful Spanish winter weather and sunshine. Many members enjoyed the RetroMalaga classic car show last weekend, it was a great place for enthusiasts to gather and enjoy the show and the social side of it too. Next event for the Club is a classic car run and lunch starting from Venta Platero, near Coin, on Saturday.

FA Cup Round Up WAYNE ROONEY will face his former side Manchester United in the fifth round of the FA Cup after Derby beat Northampton in their fourthround replay. Holders Manchester City will travel to Sheffield Wednesday. Chelsea will host Liverpool after they overcame Shrewsbury in a replay, while Arsenal travel to League One Portsmouth. All eight ties will be played across three midweek nights from March 3 to 5. Rooney, who is United and England’s all-time record goal scorer, joined Championship club Derby County as a player-coach in January from MLS side DC United. Now 34, he played 559 times for United, scoring 253 goals. He won five Premier League titles and each of the Champions League, Europa League and FA Cup once after joining
from Everton for £27m in 2004. Since leaving Old Trafford he has faced his former employers twice, losing both games during the 2017-18 season, while in a second spell at Everton.
Tottenham play Southampton in the remaining fourthround replay, with the winners at home to Norwich. In a change to the usual format, all eight ties will be
played across three midweek nights from March 3-5, with no replays. If any of the ties are level after 90 minutes there will be 30 minutes of extra time and, if necessary, penalties to determine a winner on the night. It is the second season running that fifth-round replays have been removed from the competition in an attempt to alleviate fixture congestion.
In addition, the Premier League is having a mid-season break in February, with each team getting a weekend off. Four Premier League matches will take place on the opening weekend of the inaugural winter break, with six more the following weekend. All 10 matches have different kick-off times, meaning none of the games will be played at the same time.
The schedule was agreed in June 2018 between the Football Association, the Premier League and EFL. FA Cup fifth-round draw

Youngest Ever Reds Go Through READING: Won on a penalty shoot-out.
Reading Triumphant A TIE that went every inch of the distance for Reading ended triumphantly at the Cardiff City Stadium, as they defeated their hosts by virtue of a penalty shoot-out. It was Josh Murphy who had opened the scoring for Cardiff in the first period, and Robert Glatzel’s sec-
ond-half strike looked to have the Bluebirds well on their way to Round Five. But two fine team goals by Omar Richards and Andy Rinomhota took the game to an added 30. Murphy capitalised on a bit of a mix-up early in extra-time, but Reading again showed their resilience to got back level in the late stages
through Yakou Méïté - meaning that the tie would need penalties to decide the winner after the 120 minutes ended at 3-3. From the spot, Cardiff were wasteful and Reading were flawless. Sub Sone Aluko was the one to finish the job; 4-1 the score from the shoot-out.
LIVERPOOL’S youngest-ever starting line-up beat Shrewsbury Town to set up an FA Cup fifth-round tie at Chelsea. They edged past the League One side through Ro-Shaun Williams’ own goal. With the Reds’ senior players enjoying the inaugural Premier League winter break, under23’s boss Neil Critchley led a side at Anfield containing seven teenage outfield players. At 0-0, Shrewsbury had a Shaun Whalley goal disallowed by the video assistant referee (VAR). Whalley thought he had given the Shrews the lead, but his header was disallowed when VAR ruled there had been an offside in the build-up. The visitors had come from 2-0 down to force a fourth-round replay, but could not recover after defender Williams headed past his own keeper from Liverpool right-back Neco Williams’ cross. It was a great evening out for the Shrewsbury players and fans with the gate revenue surely welcomed from the smaller club.

SURPRISE SIGNING
WFS ‘A’ Team.
‘WALKING FOOTBALL SPAIN CUP DOUBLE’ WALKING FOOTBALL SPAIN (WFS) came face to face with the ‘Walking Dead’ making their long awaited debut in The Blue Sky Marbella Walking Football League League Cup competition with both ‘A’ teams facing each other and the ‘B’ teams following. Unfortunately these matches were not classics with the ‘Walking Dead’ adopting similar stifling tactics to those used by ‘Smiles’ the previous week in an effort to stop the WFS ‘A’ free flowing style. They succeeded to an extent but went in at half time 1-0 down thanks to a goal from WFS Shaun Smith in 10 minutes. The big first half talking points were the constant complaints to the referee by the ‘Walking Dead’ players who were of the opinion the WFS players were running, a free kick in walking football. In the 25th minute of the second half Jim Maguire read an excellent back pass from team mate Steve Hughes to slam the ball past the ‘Walking Dead’ keeper who was having a superb game. The ‘Walking Dead’ support were continaully vociferous in telling the referee which of the WFS team were running and who wasn’t. WFS ‘A’ did have two players blue carded and sent off for two minutes each although ‘Walking Dead’ failed to take advantage of the five-man WFS team. ‘Walking Dead’ had two players blue carded and later yellow carded (five minutes off the pitch) for back chatting the referee. Steve Hughes was the hero for a slightly lack lus-
tre WFS who didn’t find their usual rhythm, by scoring two goals late in the second half to send his team into the semi finals. FINAL SCORE - WFS ‘A’ 4, WALKING DEAD 0 (Half time 1-0) (Smith, Maguire, Hughes 2) Next it was the ‘B’ teams who unfortunately had a ‘short’ game due to the first game over running with frequent hold ups for bookings and sending off players and discussing of incidents. This was an end to end battle with both keepers being kept busy. It was a tremendous shot from Lee who put WFS ‘B’ in front after some clever play from the back. Their lead was short lived however as an excellent goal from the ‘Walking Dead’s’ Darren levelled the scores. But it was Shaun Smith again, substituting for the WFS ‘B’ team who broke the deadlock with minutes to go scoring from 15 yards to give the WFS ‘B’ team a semi final match against their ‘A’ team. Two WFS ‘B’ players were blue carded and sent off for two minutes in this match. FINAL SCORE - WFS ‘B’ 2, WALKING DEAD ‘B’ 1 (Half time 1-1) (Lee, Smith) (Darren) Not the greatest night for walking football with a constant outcry of running, a problem in the game wherever it is played, and constant complaints to the referee who later said it was the worst walking football game he had ever refereed. SEMI FINALS - ASTON VIÑUELA v SMILES 50’s (Benalmadena) WFS ‘A’ v WFS ‘B’ (Finca Naundrup) Both ties to be played Saturday March 7.
ESTEBAN GRANERO: New signing for Marbella FC. COSTA DEL SOL’S Marbella FC Gains Football Star Esteban Granero. ‘El Pirata’ (The Pirate) from first division Espanyol, joins ranks with Marbella FC and will remain until at least June 30, 2021. Marbella FC is taking its position in the Spanish football league serious. Not only are they leader in Group IV of the Second Division B, the club is also showing its ambition in sealing top-class players this winter. Marbella FC delivered their first ‘goal’ a few weeks ago with the signing of Juanmi Callejón and, on the verge of closing the winter market, they have put the cherry on the cake with the surprising signing of Esteban Granero. The signing of the ex-Real Madrid player, with whom he won the La Liga and the Copa del Rey, has been officially announced by the club last Thursday January 30. A player that will be linked with Marbella FC for the remainder of this season and the following, until June 30, 2021. The news has been greeted with enthusiasm by club members.
‘The Pirate’ as Esteban is known in the football world, has an extensive career. He came out of the youth system of Real Madrid, played in the first team for three seasons and has played in other big clubs like Getafe CF, Queens Park Rangers, Real Sociedad and RCD Espanyol. The midfielder from Madrid joins Marbella’s ambitious project of growth and success with the aim of aiding the club to promotion of the silver category of the Spanish football league. Esteban Granero had played 21 official matches with Espanyol this year, between La Liga, Europa League and Copa del Rey and the club issued a statement announcing the departure of a great player. RCD Espanyol of Barcelona wants to publicly thank Esteban Granero for his professionalism, commitment and involvement, a combination that made him one of the most respected players by the fans. The club wishes him the biggest success both personally and on a sporting level.
