AFTER our report in last week’s newspaper (Issue 1833) concerning a petition circulating in Estepona bemoaning the delay in opening the new hospital something positive has now occurred. Mayor of Estepona, José María García Urbano, and the President of the Junta de Andalucia Juan Manuel Moreno Bonilla met at the hospital site to hold a ceremony to hand over the Hospital de Estepona building to the Andalucian Government. The mayor declared that this was a moment of

“great relevance and importance” for the town which had paid €16 million to build the facility. Whilst the municipality paid for the building, the cost of equipping, staffing and maintenance was now for the account of the Junta which has committed to have everything in place to
allow for the opening of the hospital within six months. It has taken 10 years for this dream to be realised and shortly the hospital will be able to provide health services to some 100,000 people and will relieve some of the strain from the Costa del Sol Hospital in Marbella.

THERE has been a real blow for the Salon Variétes Theatre in Fuengirola this past weekend as it was revealed that one of the founding members of the theatre Michael Lewin passed away at the age of 85. According to a eulogy published on Facebook, he had arrived in Fuengirola in 1965 with his family where he quickly made friends with fellow expatriates and was very much involved with the arts of all types. In 1985, he and friends managed to obtain a lease on a closed cinema in the town and it was then that Salon Variétes, the only English language theatre on the Costa del Sol was born. Now some 35 years later the theatre has suffered from the lockdown and has just released the following statement; “Regretfully, despite the theatre meeting the rigorous health standards laid down, ticket sales for our September shows have been disappointingly poor. Therefore, in the best interests of the theatre, the opening of our season has been postponed until October. “We fully intend to go ahead with our production of Evita in October. Details of this will be published shortly and we enthusiastically look forward to seeing you all very soon.”
Mijas Donkeys
One of the donkeys has a visitor.
MUCH has been written about the plight of the Mijas donkeys over the years with not a huge amount being achieved, but Mijas councillor Bill Anderson has reported on his Council Work Facebook page that there seems to be breakthrough. He visited Mijas Pueblo and met up with Katy Darlow who created the Mijas Donkey Movement Project, a not for profit organisation which is dedicated to checking the general health and welfare of the 69 donkeys there.
She had obtained agreement from the donkey owners to bring an equine veterinarian to check on their health and it appears that having examined the first 30 they seem to be in a reasonably good condition and the vet will be giving advice on how to further enhance their conditions. The councillor reported that the owners appeared happy to cooperate and indicated that they would consider implementing any recommendations that may be made.

Hotel Sisu fire to be investigated
HOTEL BLAZE: Emergency services attended immediately. THE fire that engulfed the Hotel Sisu which sits by the N340 just outside of San Pedro Alcantara was a disaster which ended up with the death of one person and minor injuries to others. According to the Marbella Council, it was a Local Police unit which first raised the alarm after spotting a column of smoke and had it not been for the speed of response by the emergency services, the results could have been far worse. Investigations are ongoing to discover the cause of the outbreak but videos on social media show desperate guests climbing down the exterior walls in an effort to escape and no doubt much will be made of the speed in which the fire spread and the apparent lack of alarms. There is a long and tangled tale with regards to the management and ownership of the hotel as well as its relationship with residents in the surrounding area. In 2017 when the Partido Polular regained control of Marbella Council, it responded to neighbours’ complaints and declined to extend a music licence due to the regular

EWN spoke to a representative of the actual owners of the property Hotel Lorcrima SL and they made it clear that whilst being shocked by this latest turn of events and offered their deepest sympathy to the deceased, this is something that they had feared might happen for some time. They contest that the person running the hotel had no valid lease to do so and in all of the time that they had occupied the property, they had never paid any rent and owed more than €1 million. Hotel Lorcrima SL have endeavoured to follow proper legal routes in order to regain possession of the property, but have been blocked at various stages by the intricacies of the Spanish legal system, although they judged that they were very close to a positive decision prior to the fire breaking out. It would be completely wrong to try to pre-judge the result of investigations surrounding the fire, but those undertaking them must be seen to do so fairly and thoroughly in order to protect the hard-won good name of Marbella and its guardians.

Emergency conditions EMERGENCY workers protest at Hospital Costa del Sol, Marbella. The hospital belongs to the four health districts of Andalucia with the highest number of Covid19 cases, the workers highlight that “in this hospital, there is a lack of staff and space to care for patients.” “We believe that things are not being done well,” they point out in a statement sent to the press that “In the first wave, both professionals and managers faced an unknown situation and it was improvised, endangering both residents and workers.” They claim they are “worried” due to numbers of infected patients “only going up” and decision-making by those responsible “is not up to par, late and based on theory.” They explain that they are seeing the emergency room collapse and are forced to care for patients in “undesirable conditions.” According to them, they are “overcrowded” and the safety distances recommended by the Ministry of Health are not kept. Given that this increase in cases “has only just begun,” they have decided to “educate the health authorities that they have to move quickly.” The workers who support the protests explain they want to work “with total and absolute safety.” The staff also ensures that there has been no screening among professionals to detect if there are asymptomatic cases.

Job furlough extension talks GOVERNMENT, business leaders and trade union representatives are set to sit down next month to talk about a new extension to Spain’s ERTE job furlough scheme, according to Spanish media.

Garamendi expressed the view in a recent interview with the El Pais newspaper that the fur-
lough scheme should run until at least December. “What they have to say is how much money there is and until when it will reach, because it is already negotiated,” the CEOE president affirmed. UGT union secretary general Pepe Alvarez
has also indicated that even if everyone is not exactly on the same page on the issue, then there is the “beginning of an agreement.” Alvarez told La Sexta Spanish TVE, Mallorca has been chosen as the meeting venue precisely because its tourist sector has been so severely hit by the pandemic situation and because so many of the island’s workers have been furloughed. He described an extension as “absolutely essential” for the Spanish economy and its companies, and said there should be no end date. “The pandemic is indefinite; right now we don’t know when it’s going to end,” he commented. He also wants the conversations to look at the issue of how much furloughed employees receive, making it clear one of the necessary conditions for reaching an agreement as far as the UGT is concerned is keeping the current amounts in place. The last extension to the ERTE agreed at the end of June followed a series of meetings and some tough negotiations. According to the UGT leader there are currently 700,000 workers on ERTEs.

Man on surfboard
rescued BASED on a report which appeared in Europa Press, British newspapers have been reporting on a bizarre incident which happened off the coast near Marbella. The 112 Emergency service received a call from the skipper of a yacht, the Estelar who reported that they had discovered a middle-aged man, fully dressed on a surf board who claimed that he had fallen off a ship and had been drifting at sea for several days. The Maritime Rescue Service (Salvamento Maritimo) sent its Salvamar Vega rescue boat based in Estepona out to pick up the man who it turns out was in his 50’s and may be British but was reportedly suffering from hypothermia and was taken to Estepona Port where paramedics took over. According to reports he told his rescuers that he had fallen off a cruise ship and had been drifting on the surfboard for three days before being sighted. Whilst it appears absolutely correct that a man was rescued, his story seems very unlikely as there are few cruise ships in the Mediterranean and those that are mainly have just crew and the fact that he managed to find a random surfboard also raises questions.
Council halves Xmas budget
RESTRICTED: Scene from last year’s Three Kings Parade. IT’S not a case of ‘Bah Humbug’ but Santa Claus won’t be able to steer his sleigh by the Christmas lights of Alhaurin de la Torre as the council is reducing its Xmas expenditure by 50 per cent. The reason is that it believes that it is better to spend the money, estimated to be around €80,000, on activities against Covid-19 such as job creation and social assistance. Street lighting, decorations and events will suffer, but the council wants to encourage local spend to help shops, bars and restaurants so that more money is spent within the municipality. With the belief that large gatherings may cause contagion, there will be a planned reduction in entertainment in order to discourage crowds especially in enclosed spaces whilst some of the money saved will go to allow the continued cleaning and disinfecting of public areas. It is also expected that the Three Kings parade will be restricted to the disappointment of many.

Banderas recovered
SUPERSTAR: Message of hope to those who are struggling with the illness. HOLLYWOOD actor and Malaga resident Antonio Banderas has announced that he has already recovered from Covid-19. The superstar took to Twitter on Tuesday, August 25, to let his fans know and give hope to those who are already struggling with the illness. “After 21 days of disciplinary confinement, I can say now that today I overcame the Covid19 infection. I am cured. My thoughts go to those who weren’t as fortunate as me, and to those who suffered more than I did. I also wish strength to the ones who are in the middle of the fight,” Banderas wrote in a post that included a mock-up of him kicking shapes of the virus. The ‘Puss in Boots’ and ‘Zorro’ legend announced on this same social network on August 10 that he had tested positive for Covid-19, forcing him to celebrate his 60th birthday in quarantine. At the time, he noted that he was “relatively well, just a little more tired than usual” and hoped to recover quickly as he has done. Throughout these three weeks, in addition to “reading, writing or resting” as he stated he would, he has been active on social networks publishing images of sunrises in Malaga and showing his “pride” for his daughter Stella del Carmen’s appearance on the cover of Glamour magazine.

For this reason, a specific team is already in charge of enhancing the existing tree canopies, both in the courtyards and in the adjoining areas of the 11 Infant and Primary cen-

The management of Eden have tried to disassociate themselves from the events and, after the numerous mentions they are receiving, they have issued a statement claiming the complaints are a “discrediting campaign” towards their image and to members of the company . Likewise, they add that the beach club “only serves customers at a reserved table or hammock” and that it does not allow “the free movement of people through the establishment without wearing masks or keeping safe distances.” The statement goes on to say “in order to collaborate in the prevention of the spread of Covid-19” it has made several decisions

Damages, Fines and Cameras Community Law Corner By José Luis Navarro Solicitor for Intercala Administration
joseluis@intercala.com www.intercala.com
with Pete Woodall, Woody’s Los Boliches
ALTHOUGH tourism all over Spain has been greatly reduced this year, damage to community property and facilities caused by visitors and tourists did not stop. Not all tourists come and disrespectfully leave smelly rubbish bags lying around that cause stains and invite rats, damage plants while playing ball games, let their dogs poo in the community gardens and their kids break things that would normally never ever get broken. However some do and everything that is damaged or soiled has a cost to be met. Communities could seek compensation for the damages from the perpetrators or the
owners of their accommodation in court. However the cost, time, effort and proving who is responsible makes this approach basically very impractical. Other communities, using for example CCTV cameras to gather evidence, have taken to fining the owners for the unwanted actions of their short-term and holiday tenants. A far easier solution yes, but unfortunately not legal. W ith the possible exception of a surcharge for late payment of community fees, the monopoly on fining anyone, particularly other owners, is the prerogative of the Spanish State, Town Halls, Police, Guardia Civil and down here the Junta de Andalucía, not a community of owners. Even if a community pursued the “fine” in court you can safely assume they would not get their money. So if fines by communities are illegal but communities have incurred unwanted costs redressing the misbe-
haviour of others, a possible solution to recuperate the cost would be to “amend” the concept. Instead of imposing a fine, label it a special community charge attributable to one specific owner, as an individual cost not to be paid by any other owners. Which is permitted under the Law of Horizontal Property the law that governs all communities throughout Spain - in Article 9 1e. There are two important considerations. One, the use of the community CCTV cameras has to be for the security of community property and facilities, not monitoring people. Two, realising different courts will have different interpretations of the legality of charging owners for the misbehaviour of their tenants. Some courts saying, the perpetrators should pay for the damage while others will maintain the owners have a responsibility so they ought to pay. To minimise the effect of these complications, the community should approve at a general meeting of owners two things. First, the use of community cameras for the protection of community property by monitoring any damage to the property caused by a person or persons. Secondly, if any damage is observed the owner of the property where the perpetrators were staying at the time will be held responsible for the cost of the misbehaviour and be charged for it, as an individualised community charge, levied on the owner according to Article 9 1e of the Law of Horizontal Property.

REPLACEMENT VEHICLE No smoke without fire? IN CASE OF ACCIDENT
FROM Monday, August 17, following Galicia and the Canary Islands example, the Spanish Ministry of Health banned smoking in the street and public spaces in Andalucia where smokers cannot guarantee a distance of two metres from others. This is one of the new restrictions published by the Junta de Andalucia which came into force as well as others on nightlife opening times and monitoring capacity. The smoking ban applies to all outdoor public spaces, from streets to bar terraces when a minimum distance of two metres cannot be respected. This also applies to devices such as vapes, e-cigarettes and hookas. Also, if somebody is caught smoking in a bar or establishment it is not just them who can receive a penalty, both the owner and the smoker can be fined for anything from €100 to €3,000 for breaking the restrictions. However, if the bar reports that a customer refuses to stop smoking when asked, only the customer will be fined. EWN took to the streets to ask the public and local bar and restaurant owners how the restrictions have affected them. We were surprised to discover that the general public finds it more of a hindrance than the establishment owners who seemed to have faith in their customer’s ability to make the right decision. • Tim Orram an expat who lives in Benalmadena and is originally from Bristol said, “It’s bulls**t, I think it’s a scam. I go to bars and still see people smoking there without ‘safely’ distancing. Also, if you ask the police the specifics of the law they just shrug because they are just as confused about it as we are.” • Kate Kelly an expat who lives in Torreblanca said “The
smoking ban is so confusing. Which is such a shame as I have felt that the Spanish approach to the Coronavirus has been well organised and communicated so far. I vape and am really unclear as to when and where I can do that now. It has made us a bit wary as to going out at night and so we have been mostly staying on our balcony.”
• Maria Jose of Los Angeles bar in Albir on the Costa Blanca is aware of the problems other bars, restaurants and cafes are experiencing, but has not had any real issues herself. “It has not really been a problem for us as we have a lot of outdoor space and we are located on the street, so it is quite easy for smokers to social distance.” She went on to say that, “Our customers have all been very responsible when it comes to hand cleaning, wearing masks, and now keeping a distance when smoking.”
• Elliott Wright, owner of popular restaurant Olivia’s in La Cala de Mijas on the Costa del Sol, has not seen the smoking ban as such a big issue and praised his customers, saying “Under the circumstances, people have understood that smoking is an issue and have politely smoked outside or in a smoke zone without issues.”

Questioning Fundamental Rights Political Viewpoint from Spain by DAMON MITCHELL THE Magistrate Alfonso Villagómez Cebrián, annulled Madrid’s Autonomous Government’s ban on smoking last week; in a democratic country and with a legal system that protects the people’s fundamental rights and freedom, we should all consider the necessity and legality of the actions of the public authorities when they take our freedoms away. Every day we come across new regulations that tell us how we have to act, what we can do and what not, with whom we can and cannot meet, where we can go and where not. Moreover, we must not forget that all these regulations affect rights and freedoms protected by the Spanish Constitution, which can only be limited in a situation of a State of Exception, as regulated by the consti-
ANNULLED: Magistrate Alfonso Villagómez Cebrián. tutional text itself. It all started with the lockdown decree last March which prevented us from free movement and assembly knowing that in a State of Alarm these rights and freedoms can’t be touched, 40 million Spanish residents accepted the situation due to fear of this pandemic which has rocked most of the world. After the State of Alarm fin-
ished, the Autonomous Regions were given back their power. However, they have regulated numerous aspects of our daily life through legal orders that are null and void, since they are contrary to the Government’s Royal Decree-Law. This Royal DecreeLaw, known as the ‘New Normal’ that imposes several health and safety rules (some of them constitutionally questionable)
have to be controlled and imposed by the Autonomous Administrations; for example, wearing a face mask. The Autonomous Communities have not limited themselves to imposing the Royal DecreeLaw, but have in turn regulated a stricter version, approving regulations that are therefore illegal. In addition, this situation produces legal uncertainty which is also constitutionally unacceptable. And in the middle of all this chaos are the members of the Security Forces, obeying orders from their superiors forcing them to fine residents applying unconstitutional norms. On the one hand, all Spanish civil servants are obliged to obey when carrying out their duties, but on the other hand, they are also obliged to report illegal practices in their jobs when they become aware of them. Therefore, we should ask ourselves, what should the police do? Denounce people or denounce their superiors?
Meanwhile, the government has had to acknowledge that there has never been a committee of experts that supposedly advised on the decision-making of the de-escalation and on the preparation of the aforementioned Royal Decree-Law of the New Normal. The damage which has been made by these clearly political decisions has taken the hotel and bar businesses to a dead zone where no help has been offered more than the original furlough. All this opens up many questions, such as, why is the government going down this road? Are our politicians uneducated with regard to health and economic issues? All these questions will have to be answered sooner or later. Bearing in mind that politicians have never been objective thinkers, we should not hesitate to question them regarding how they legislate our fundamental rights and freedoms.

New breathing apparatus Displaying the new equipment. THE Benalmadena Fire Brigade is the first in Malaga Province to have new breathing apparatus with individual pulmo-automatic valves. This was announced as councillor for Security, Javier Marín; and the Benalmadena Fire Chief, David Bañasco, unveiled the latest acquisition of material for the service which consists of five autonomous breathing apparatus, plus 25 individual breathing intakes. There is an ongoing programme of upgrading equipment which has so far seen an outlay of €14,900 as the council endeavours to provide the firefighting service with the best technology equipment available. Fire Chief Bañasco commented, “With the acquisition of this new equipment we want the best from the devices that we carry when we are working, to facilitate mobility. “In addition to having a new system that allows us to evacuate the victims during a fire, there are rescue hoods, which facilitate their breathing during evacuation and the lung-automatic valves, which will be worn by all firefighters individually to ensure that they breathe the amount of air they need “Due to the health alert for Covid-19, the individual use of these valves is essential,” he added.
Benalmádena Blood Donors THE Brotherhood of the Redemption Building in Arroyo de la Miel will host two days of blood donation today August 27 and 28 and this is particularly important now as not only are there more people on the coast, hospitals are undertaking surgery which was postponed during lockdown. “The Transfusion Centre must maintain the reserves at a good level so that there is no shortage of blood in our hospitals and for that the help of all citizens is essential,” said councillor for Health, Juan Carrillo.

Illegal Landfill T H E M a l a g a To w n Hall has made public the complaint of an illegal landfill in the Churriana pine forests. “We are talking about a unique place, but even to which some heartless people have come to dump garbage of all kinds, especially remains of building works, as well as an extremely high number of tyres. It is a truly regrettable image,” explained Salvador Trujillo, socialist councillor. The councillor informed the Municipal Board of the Churriana Council of these events. “We believed that after the complaint they would act on it. What has been our surprise that not only has no action been taken, but the lack of control has led to an increase in waste, creating an authentic illegal dump of garbage, debris and tyres,” he continued.

Brimming over with Pride
MANILVA: Hopes to have a rainbow post office van. PINE FOREST: Has become an illegal dumping ground. It is not the first time the PSOE councillor has had to denounce the lack of action towards illegal dumps in the area. “In recent months we are observing how they grow in the area. “The problem is greater when they do so in natural places like this, where a simple spark can fuel a huge fire between two highly populated neighbour-
hoods in the Sierra de Churriana, such as Cortijo de Mazas and Monsalvez .” In this way, the socialist leader asked the council “to act quickly to clean up the area. There is no time to lose, and it is a miracle that until now there has been no misfortune, but if we do not act there may be in the future.” To conclude, Trujillo has
demanded from the government team “greater control of these illegal dumps in the district, added to greater surveillance action by the Local Police. “In the end, those who lose are the residents of Churriana who cannot enjoy places like this, which also run the risk of becoming grass for the flames.”
AT the next Gala organised by the Directorate of the LGTB Andalucia Awards 2020 and WUG Foundation, the town and council of Manilva will receive a special award for holding the annual Manilva Pride event. The Gala will take place on Saturday, October 3 at 8pm in the Edgar Neville Auditorium Malaga City subject to the requirements concerning social distancing and Covid-19 regulations concerning capacity. The Manilva Council has expressed its pleasure at being recognised for what it does to foster a message of normalisation and tolerance so that the municipality is considered a cradle of diversity and respect for each and every person who makes up society, whatever their sexual status.
Crackdown on fake goods
EVERY summer, the Marbella Council encourages the Local Police to intensify their campaign against the sale
of illegal counterfeit goods as not only does their sale damage the image of the city, but also hurts the tak-
ings of legitimate businesses. Forty officers comprise the team which patrols streets, beach areas, markets and shops and so far, more than 800 fakes have been seized during what is a difficult time for the Local Police who are also involved in checking on anti Covid-19 matters. The Paseo Maritimo and Puerto Banus are regularly patrolled as they have become a major sales point for those itinerants trying to unload the fake designer items to members of the public who surely know what they are buying. Local Police Chief Javier Martín says that his officers will diligently follow the crack down of these sales, which is perhaps a little easier as there are fewer tourists in the city which makes it easier to spot those with fake goods.

Sky News reported that BT has con tacted American Investment Bank Gold

Should a takeover actually be fact rather than fiction, it could be either a private equity firm or Deutsche Telecom AG which has shown interest in the British corporation for several years but it does come with baggage.

CAUTIOUS: Rishi Sunak looking positive. FOR the first time since 1960, the UK government’s debt of just over £2 (€2.2) trillion is greater than Gross Domestic Product (GDP) according to the Office for National Statis tics (ONS). Debt had been creeping up during the latter part of 2019, but the lockdown and pandemic has hit Britain bad ly and the fact is that for the past four months spending has exceeded tax income. In the short term, the situation will get worse as the government will need to fund the next round of SelfEmployed Income Support and also settle the
Eat Out scheme. Analysts forecast that once these two significant amounts are paid, the need to borrow will drop, especial ly as company VAT payments will be due and the Furlough scheme will finish. Britain will not benefit in the way that Italy and Spain have from the financial sup port from the European Union and the Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak will have to be creatively cau tious in his autumn budget and hope that significant trade deals following final Brexit divorce are just around the corner.
Morocco removes EUR1 rights can be charged at a higher rate. The report suggests that companies in Melilla have tried to get round the prob lem by sending their goods to Almeria and then having them shipped to Mo

€165 bn losses worldwide by John Smith VISA WAIVER processing firm, Official-esta.com has undertaken a review into which countries have suffered the biggest revenue loss, as well as highest percentage of GDP (Gross Domestic Product) lost in order to consider the affect that Covid-19 had on world tourism. As can be seen here, the USA is by far the worst affected country with at least $30 (€25.4) billion disappearing from the economy, but number two in the chart is Spain with a still massive $9.74 (€8.23) billion loss, although it is closely followed by France with Thailand in fourth place.

Educational skullduggery
THE British government’s final decision to allow teachers to decide student’s exam results was not only ridiculous, but positively wreaked of a hasty and desperate endeavour to resolve a problem that they could have simply done without. After all, when you are in debt to the tune of two trillion pounds and gripped by a pandemic bringing the country to its knees, having a bunch of youngsters crying in their cornflakes and marching on Downing Street because they consider they should have received higher than an F in mathematics, was just about the last thing they needed. Appeasing the teachers, pupils and public in one fell swoop was actually a stroke of genius, they simply wanted the problem to go away - and it has. Unfortunately, because of the method used to obtain their grades and through no fault of their own, in years to come the classes of 2020 will be viewed on with suspicion by just about everyone, universities and future employers alike trying to have us believe that teachers would be either competent, unbiased or impartial enough to deliver up fair and just results in these ex-
EXAM RESULTS: A problem the government could have simply done without. ams was actually an insult to anyone with even a smidgen of intelligence. Teachers are as human as the rest of us. They have always had their favourites, or students they dislike and even their occasional attraction to pupils, (who can often manipulate ‘Sir’ or ‘Miss’ with the guile of those far beyond their years!). You can’t tell me that a teacher, who is
aware that a better result for young Jimmy who is not the brightest, but, is ‘such a nice lad’ and has ‘tried very hard,’ doesn’t merit perhaps just a little tweak in the marking department? Well of course it would. Couple that with the fact that schools are judged by their overall success rate and you have the perfect storm for educational skullduggery. Is it any wonder the
diddum’s experienced one of the highest pass rates in history? No, I’m afraid this is merely one more step in the lowering of British education standards, which has been slowly eroding for years. I’m actually pretty convinced that the leftie luvvies will adore this method of selection. No exams, no stress and if they had their way, no losers. I predict a whole glut of university graduates stacking the shelves of Sainsbury’s in the dumbed down years to come. You truly do have to feel sorry for poor old Boris. He’s found himself at the head of a government experiencing the worst series of crisis in living memory. Become a new dad. Been at death’s door with the Covid virus and when he tries to slip away into the British countryside for a brief respite, has an irate farmer chase him off the land where he pitches his tent! For heaven’s sake give him a break and thank the Lord that the likes of Corbyn and Abbott aren’t those making the decisions. Keep the faith. Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com expatradioscotland. Mon.

Good luck with that one Germany... MIKE SENKER IN MY OPINION Views of a Grumpy Old Man I LOVE dogs - they are just the best pets in the world. They just want to be your best friend and are very loyal. My ambition is to be half the man my dog thinks I am. The greeting when you return home is ‘Wow you came back. Thank you!!’ So you will understand that when I read that North Korea’s leader has reportedly ordered his people to hand over their pet dogs so they can be turned into meat for restaurants absolutely made me feel sick and totally outraged. It’s bad enough they eat dogs in the first place, but to come round your house and remove your beloved pet is just not even something I want to think about. There was another doggy story that caught my eye this week and initially I thought it was crazy but after looking at it closer it isn’t. The story was on the Mail online which does not seem to have the ability to report anything truthfully which
is infuriating. Their headline was that in Germany owners had to walk their dogs two hours a day and would get prosecuted if they didn’t. After looking into it it’s not quite as bad but still difficult to understand how they could police it. But what they are saying is dogs aren’t cuddly toys. They also have their own needs, which need to be taken into account. Under the new rules it will no longer be legal for Germany’s 9.4 million dogs to be left alone at home for long periods. Keeping dogs tethered or on a lead for a significant amount of time could also be banned, which is absolutely correct. What they don’t seem to have taken into consideration is that not all dogs are the same. My dog is 14 years old. He couldn’t walk two hours a day. He likes to go out for two walks a day, get a bit of exercise, do what he has to do and come home. He’s emptied again at night before we close for the day. Also you have to take into consideration the size and breed. A tiny Chihuahua doesn’t need the same exercise as a Labrador. Anyway good luck with that one Germany. Maybe whilst timing dogs’ walks you can check whether everyone has their face masks on and are socially distancing at the same time!

They call me Sir Lunchalot GAVIN LAMBE-MURPHY AMIDST the never-ending rule changes of the new normal, one thing remains constant - each day, lunch is something of an occasion. Having always preferred to lunch, rather than dinner, I try to find restaurants in Marbella to fulfil my desire for great food, and stylish settings. Trust me, it’s not as easy as it should be. Living directly on the beach, one would expect simple, yet fantastic seafood and local cuisine. However, it seems that the restaurateurs of the area prefer to mix things up, with an awful lot of Asian fusion. Yes, I’m confused too. If you’re fortunate to live in Andalucia, there are so many amazing culinary possibilities. While dining out should be something to look forward to, I find it something of a chore, as I try to think of where to go. First World problems for sure, but still, problems are problems. That changed this week, as I stumbled upon my new favourite place. Primeria Selection, in Marbella town is possibly the most stylish and passionate of all. Stylish, as it exudes simple elegance. Passionate, as the owners Luis and Encarna Galán are knowledgeable and interested in every aspect. I met a friend on an impossibly hot Wednesday afternoon, when the only thing to calm the heat was chilled Veuve Clicquot, and an ocean of San Pellegrino. We shared some burrata and then asked what else was on offer. I was told that in the evening the menu lists daily specials. One thing I’ve noticed a lot in Marbella - despite the economic downturn and lack of custom, most places are reluctant to bend the rules, remaining trapped in opening times that simply no longer apply. If a customer wishes to go off piste, and let’s say, order from the evening menu at lunch time, why not? They have money, and you have what they want. I believe they call it ‘good business.’ Anyhow, that’s exactly what happened. When I asked what time the
FAVOURITE PLACE: Me with the owners of Primeria Selection in Marbella. Their names are Luis and Encarna Galán. exciting evening menu begins, ever smiling, and super well-informed Encar na replied, “right now, if you like!” Suddenly our lunch became an occasion and naturally so did our tab. Amazingly fresh prawn tortilla with black truffle. Potato salad with cod tartare. A locally sourced cheese plate. A well-priced and delicious Rioja. Sorry if I’m making you hungry. This couple are passionate about every aspect of their business, and more so, about promoting seriously good Spanish produce. That evening, I thought of how well they ran their chic eatery. Hands on and hard work - I know it’s hard work, as I used to be involved in a similar restaurant in Dublin. That’s the thing about whatever you choose to do - without a true passion, there’s no point. I was recently interviewed for an English magazine, about my lifestyle, and life in general. When asked why I live in Spain, I replied, because I am fortunate. Yes, there are many things about Marbella that surprise me. But a life without surprise, well, where’s the fun in that?

US AND THEM
We might as well stay at home soon and enjoy the family once in a while. Credit: Twitter
DEAR Euro Weekly, I live in a particularly Spanish neighbourhood in Fuengirola and there are a couple of Spanish bars owned by the same people that are situated next to each other. Every single night the bars are ram-packed, sure they serve a little tapas to go with the drinks, but I am talking no social distancing, no masks, absolutely no time for chairs or tables to be wiped down and disinfected. It’s bedlam. The police pass this area regularly as it is near the police station and a main road, but I have never seen them stop and do any kind of enforcement or checks. Are we back to us against them again? Surely it should be one rule for everyone if we ever want rid of this horrible virus?

Shock and sense
TK Dear Euro Weekly, I got a bit of a fright last week when I read your report on Facebook about the possibility of a lockdown in September and I must say the load of comments made it worse. However, when I read your follow up article it did begin to make sense and of course, if that is what the government ask
OUR VIEW Mere pawns WHEN will politicians and governments stop gambling with our lives in their games of one-upmanship? First one closes their borders then another follows suit in what seems like a childlike move, do they really have our best interests at heart or have we become bargaining tools in their future plans? Three weeks ago, the UK government decided to re-impose a 14-day quarantine on everyone arriving from Spain forcing travellers into panic and trying to return home at short notice. At the time, Spain’s PM Pedro Sánchez said visitors would be safer from the virus in Spain than in the UK, and he hoped Britain would think again. However, the UK government have not changed their mind and an official spokesperson for BoJo even warned that ‘no travel is risk-free during this pandemic.’ Now, the UK government has said anyone travelling from France and the Netherlands will have to quarantine, which again caused a mass exodus among those holidaying in these destinations. It was reported that the latest measure was put into place as new Covid-19 infections grew across Europe and France, in particular, reported a large increase in infections in the past week. T h e m o v e i s a g i g a n t i c b l o w t o F r a n c e ’s tourism industr y as the previous move was to Spain’s. Is there something we are missing? A bigger picture? Take away the destinations and people will spend money on home soil maybe?

IT’S BEDLAM: Why are there no police checks?
of us, another lockdown, then who are we to argue. Now, lo and behold, they have started to take other actions with the closing of bars and smoking bans etc, so let’s hope all those who gave such negative replies to the news posted maybe think before pouncing on the keyboard the next time. It is an uncertain time with confusing consequences so who are we to argue? Anyway, I just wanted to say sorry that I had a flicker of doubt, it was probably just the shock of the continuing fight. Keep us informed and don’t let the finger pointers get you down. Hailey Marchmont Benidorm
Kiss goodbye

US President Donald Trump Announces Covid ‘Breakthrough’ Allowing this therapeutic to be used without proper trials, is just madness. Plus it only helps people in very early stages, if at all. It’s only because the Republican convention is starting today, that he has announced this, to try and give a positive spin. CDC didn’t want to approve it last week.

Dear Euro Weekly, How can the Spanish government screw it up for us any more? Their recent actions and rules have truly put the boot in for many expat bars. I have friends who have already handed back their keys as they see no way forward and who is to know what nonsensical moves the government will make next. You can kiss goodbye to tourism now. Obviously, most people won’t be coming on holiday to stand next to each other smoking in a bar that isn’t serving food at three o’clock in the morning but people want things their way and want to make up their own minds about where they smoke, drink or party. Let’s hope for some good news soon or even results that show that this was a good idea, as so far nothing has proven to have worked.

MASKED OR UNMASKED JOHN
SHARPLES
HOW many times have you w a l k e d o u t o f y o u r f ro n t door in the last few months without a mask on and only realised that you didn’t have the damn thing on when you arrived at your destination? If I had a Euro for each time I have done that I would be a lot richer than I am now. I have personally been stopped and reminded by the police about wearing a mask but thankfully, I haven’t been fined. One of the policemen who stopped me didn’t actually have a mask on himself which I thought was rather odd, but I didn’t comment, obviously!!! The effectiveness of masks is not in any dispute scientifically. Scientists across the world are happy that they do stop the spread of the virus by limit-
FACE MASKS: They are simple to make ... so get going! ing the trajectory of particles leaving the mouth and hitting other people. So, we know, from those who are “in the know” that they are an important aid in stopping the spread of the dis-
ease along with washing our hands regularly and social distancing. What I would like to know is, why is it alright to sit down and take off our mask to have a drink with others? This is what
makes me doubt that masks are a real life saver. One thing is for sure! Walking in the streets in high temperatures under a blazing sun leaves me breathless in no time at all. I don’t suffer with
asthma but I do have some breathing difficulties caused by ill health, but I haven’t asked the doctor for an exemption certificate because I don’t like being glared at by all and sundry. What’s more, I don’t fancy being stopped by the people on every corner! I decided to make my own masks. I had cut some jeans down to shorts. I used the piece of leg that I had cut off to fashion some masks of my own that match my new shorts. It is easy to find a pattern online and they take just a few minutes to sew. The pattern I used is to be found at www.thecraftyquilter.com. You can print the pattern on your printer and cut it out and then pick any material that goes with your favourite outfits. Remember to make a thinner lining for the inside of it and you will need some wire from a hardware shop for the nose piece. They are simple to make … so get going!

Absolutely besotted
FOLLOWING on from our previous article about losing our dog Chalkie, we found ourselves trying to adjust to a life without him and in all honesty, it was a daily struggle. We missed him not being there to greet us, his cuddles and the fact he was always by our side, without question. As days and weeks passed, we sat down as a family several times to talk about how the massive hole he left behind was prominent, and even more so with the current climate, and the new normal, how it wasn’t going away and was there even a possibility of us moving on without it ever being filled again. After thinking about it long and hard we decided to start looking at the option of homing another dog as we

couldn’t move past this. We started to research into various charities and animal shelters but nothing positive was really happening for us after having reached out a few times. It was also very heartbreaking to see all the animals in the kennels without loving homes, but we were so happy when we were able to rescue and home two adorable puppies who I immediately named Han Solo and Chewbacca (I am a massive Star Wars fan ha ha). They are turning three months old and just about to go for their second batch of inoculations. The force is strong with them, they are playful, full of energy and have settled right in as family members. We are absolutely besotted.

Famous quote
FOR NEXT 7 DAYS
“Do not pray for an easy life. Pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.” Bruce Lee
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. Patience is thin on the ground at the moment, but try not to overreact.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) After the 24th 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) 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.
Credit: Twitter
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) 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 at the end of 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.
AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) 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.

HELP FOR THE BRIDE WHO’S TOO WIDE!
WE’VE all put on weight over lockdown. Hold the front page! Well, that’s according to Boris who’s now busily urging lardy Brits to lose weight to reduce the risk of succumbing to Covid-19. (Err, how much weight have YOU lost, Boris?). And as for Jamie Oliver, he’s tried for years to reduce obesity in school kids with mixed results. Maybe Jamie should turn his attention to adults too, with the news that one UK church plans to rip out church pews so ‘fat folk’ can walk down the aisle ... “Here comes the bride, 40 inches wide,” is the headline in one paper describing a Dorset church’s plans to remove some of its pews because the aisle is too narrow for obese couples to walk down. According to its Parochial Church Council: “We have had occasions at wed-
MARBELLA MOMENTS
dings where the couple have been too large to be able to walk side by side down the aisle.” But isn’t this simply evolution in action? No longer does the bride need to slim to fit the dress, but now she needs to slim to fit the church. What next, are they going to widen the doors, have a snack break half-way through the service or add a pizza oven and a deep fat fryer in case anybody gets a bit peckish if the sermon drags on? Not forgetting to have the floor reinforced. Absolutely ridiculous! Clearly time not to change the church but the people wanting to get married there! In this time of Covid and the proven link with obesity, a prewedding diet would seem to be in order. The answer is to lose weight, not wreck the
church. But let him who is without sin cast the first scone. (Sorry!) At this point I should declare an interest. My 90-yearold neighbour told me that the doctor had said he must lose weight and cut down on his daily four cans of beer. I asked what he was going to do, and he replied (stoutly): “Change doctors.”
Is something missing?
Although compatible with other optic procedures, many small lens graduations have disappeared and very high ones are being drastically reduced too as this treatment improves how information reaches the brain with far better results in improving focus and eye convergence, treating myopia, astigmatism and hypermetropia very effectively - all being ‘double vision’ issues, now resolved by synchronising the information received by both eyes before sending the information to the brain with this treatment. My fascination with ChromaGen started when I saw how it helped my children and we wanted to help others. However after 17 years I now also know that any adults who wear glasses but feel ‘there’s something missing’ should also definitely try this. Now you can, here in Marbella.

CHURCH AISLE: Too narrow to walk the bride down.
BY NICOLE KING A COUPLE of weeks ago I wrote about a new optic tool that is providing revolutionising results; ChromaGen tint lenses. It was initially developed to help with dyschromatopsia (colour vision) in the UK. Subsequently, efficacy was proven in reducing excessive light stimuli in the visual system, a cause of visual glare and all types of headaches and other visual issues. Eighty per cent of the information from our surroundings is received through our eyes and the visual system relies 100 per cent on the transmission of light. The retina absorbs the light rays from the image and transforms them into electrical impulses that travel through the Magnocelular pathway to the brain. It is the function of the brain to interpret the impulses and to reconstruct the image correctly to ‘see’.
OPTICAL ILLUSIONS: Some are simply pictures made to confuse and others play with visual mechanics. However we are all different, outside and inside and even the slightest change in size of the visual system will influence how light is refracted and transmitted. Information is interpreted according to how it has been perceived. We cannot assume that others interpret images in the same way as oneself; in fact it is highly unlikely. When we look at an image that the brain misinterprets we have an ‘optical illusion.’ Optical
illusions are the result of the brain’s interpretation of the images perceived by the eye. Some optical illusions are simply pictures made to confuse and others play with visual mechanics. Studies show that if there is a deficit in the Magnocelular pathway, there is a greater probability of difficulty in phonological decoding; there is also a lower sensitivity to detect rapid changes in auditory stimuli. These unperceivable deficien-
cies can result in low self-esteem, lower academic performance, difficulties in communication with family and friends, general fears and phobias, problems at home, difficulties at school, lack of urinary control, headaches and stomach aches, nightmares, poor psycho-motor skills and concept of time / space, stuttering and involuntary movements as well as visual-perceptual disorders previously untreatable by the optician.

LET’S not just encourage someone to talk about their mental health, let’s practise to be good listeners. It’s easy for someone to say “say how you feel” but how many times have we sat there knowing full well they aren’t listening to what you have to say. When it comes to the need to talk about our mental health, we seem to put all of the responsibility in the court of the person who is already struggling. Sure, nobody
health - it’s time to ask, listen and care MS BIPOLAR UP AND DOWN WITH BALANCE UNEDITED can read minds, and people can’t expect specific help without asking for it. But mental health problems can make it harder to talk and ask for help in
the first place. The responsibility of reaching out for help has to be matched - to provide safe spaces to talk, to listen, to not judge. My experiences have taught me the difficulty of coping with unwanted and distressing thoughts. When I was dealing with unwanted thoughts, having to seek help felt like an overwhelming task when I was already just surviving. I have often tried to reach out to people but felt like I am being a burden, why should they have to carry my pain
too? It can be very difficult for people to go there - to be with someone in their suffering - especially
when they may not see the reality of it face-toface, or don’t feel equipped to talk about such things. But this isn’t about
msbipolar@euroweeklynews.com
having a degree in psychiatry, or even mental health awareness, we simply just want someone to talk to who isn’t going to judge. We all have a personal responsibility to take care of our health as best as we can, and to try and seek support when we realise we can’t manage on our own. With my own mental health, my responsibility is to make sure I have people around me who I can rely on, be open with, and allow myself to be supported by. Also as an outsider, with family and friends also suffering with mental health issues, we must take responsibility for putting our fears aside when people indicate they are in distress, get them to keep talking, and get them to share the load BUT let’s LISTEN, listen like we mean it. Stop what you are doing, and listen, two minutes of your time can save a person’s life, it can change their thought process, it can distract them from whatever they may be feeling. I grew up with my Dad saying - “You have two ears, one mouth … use them in that order.” So instead of putting the responsibility on people to talk about their mental health, let’s educate ourselves about mental health problems, ask people about their mental health, and practise being good listeners whether we have our own experiences of mental health problems or not. Lots of love Ms Bipolar x

DIONE LOCKYER I’M guessing that many of you would love nothing more than to have complete control of your lives? For me, this was an everyday occurrence. However, I never actually understood how much this affected my state of well-being. Trying to control the outcome of every aspect of my life, increased my anxiety and lead me to question my own natural ability to just be me! There were things I was trying to control that were actually, completely out of my control. This then lead to frustration, anger and resentment. By concentrating on controlling everything outside of me, I lost my authentic self. I lost my inner calm and peace, replacing it with uncertainty. I needed to know why I felt the need to control everything in my life, and why

Let Go Of The Need To Control Everything In Your Life Quote - Before you take control of your life you first must understand what “taking control” means. it was so important to me. I had to revisit my past to find the answer. I picked up my journal, and wrote the title ‘Why Do I Need To Be In Control?’ After frantically writing, I had dwindled it down to two main reasons... FEAR and EGO. My ego was telling me that if I didn’t control my personal and business life, I would fail! I had to be per fect in every way possible to avoid said failure and to also avoid the judgement of others. If I had control, I would only achieve success. I felt that I had to control my work, my relationship, who I allowed around me because then, there was no way I could get hurt! The problem was, I was the one that was causing the hurt. Not only to myself but everyone
around me. So How Do You Let Go Of The Need To Control? Here are three of the top tips that taught me how to be less of a control freak Learn to Just Be You cannot control anything that is outside of you. You can only control the emotions that you attach to it. Be at peace with yourself. Take anything between five and 30 minutes per day to ‘Just Be.’ Find a quiet spot, take in your surroundings and enjoy the moment. Don’t pressurise yourself to feel or do anything, just enjoy whatever comes to you at that moment and breath. Show gratitude for what you have, here and now. Let go of the outcome and appreciate the calmness within you. Write a List
Write a list of the things that you CAN control. By physically writing the list of what you can control, you can remove the need to control what is outside of you. My list consists of the following, My mental well-being - I can control my mental state and well-being by doing what makes my soul happy. For me, this includes, reading a book, meditation and journalling. As a believer of the law of attraction, I understand we all work on electrical frequencies. By ensuring I am on a high-frequency level, and being at peace with myself, I will attract more of the same back to me. My appearance - I can control how I want to look.

favourite PJs, with my hair scrunched, on the top of my head, I can. Let Go of the What Ifs What if it goes wrong? What if I make a fool of myself? What if I fail. These were questions that entered my mind daily. Now I ask the same question back! Nothing you do is a failure, it is merely a lesson and with lessons comes growth. If something doesn’t go the way you want it to, let go of trying to control it. Try a different approach or understand that, what has happened, was meant to happen. Realign with your true self and try again. For more information on releasing control, please visit dione lockyermindsetmentor.com.

This week Celebrity Chef from Ready Steady Cook & Master Chef Steven Saunders, proprietor of The Little Geranium in La Cala creates a stunning, healthy and contemporary steak tartare dish.
A historic and classic worldwide dish Steven Saunders FMCGB The Little Geranium La Cala de Mijas www.thelittlegeranium.com
MICHELE told me the other day that she wanted to be on a raw food diet. Strange because she will happily eat raw meat and raw fish, but doesn’t like it when cooked. So, her favourite dishes are steak tartare or beef carpaccio, ceviche of scallops or prawns, that kind of thing. Steak tartare is a meat dish made from raw finely chopped meat. It is usually served with onions, capers, Worcester sauce and other spices often presented separately and mixed at the table, that is the classic way. In the old days it was
served with a raw egg yolk to hold it all together, nowadays we would marinate or souvide the egg yolk which cooks it. The name tartare is often used for fish dishes like salmon and tuna. The dish a la tartare was originally a dish from the 1921 edition of Escoffier’s book who serves raw minced steak with tartare sauce on the side which is probably how the name stuck. Beef Tartare can be found all over the world especially in Europe. They all have a version, so do the Americans and for hundreds of years the Africans have eaten a similar raw beef dish they call Kitfo which means minced and it is usually served with chilli powder, herbs and spices. A historic and classic dish, but as a creative chef it is my job to try and
Chef Steven with Chef Joffrey eating steak tartare. evolve dishes for the better, or else everything just stands still. Food needs to develop like fashion does and I think the dish needs bringing more up-to-date, but I don’t want to lose its elegance. In any case, I don’t really like the raw egg idea and never have really. People with weak immune systems might find the combination of raw meat with raw egg a challenge and
surely a salmonella risk. So, I have evolved the recipe and I am sharing it with you this week for the first time ever, but before I do. I have to tell you a story! When I was training at the Savoy Hotel in London. we had many very famous clients including people like Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Bing Crosby, David Bowie and the Royal Family.
I was working in the restaurant as a trainee and someone ordered Beef Tartare. I was given a trolley loaded with ingredients including, spices, herbs, onions, egg yolk, capers etc. I was briefed how to mix it all together and sent it over to the table. At the table was the comedian Norman Wisdom, a legend from the 60’s who my father adored. I recognised him immediately but with Savoy training I was to say nothing about his celebrity status and just work as per normal. I served him the beef tartare mixed and spiced up and after about five minutes he called over the head waiter and asked if it could be cooked a little bit more. The head waiter replied “it isn’t cooked at all sir!” Norman said “that’s a disgrace, don’t you
have any chefs in this place!” Of course, he was playing a joke on us, but he had us all in stitches as he said it in such an innocent way. So, when I prepare beef tartare I always think of Norman! Years later I met up with Norman Wisdom again on an ITV afternoon show called Afternoon Live. He was an incredible musician and played the violin and piano brilliantly. On the show I was cooking and then singing. The song was called Crying Tonight which I had cowritten, it can still be found on YouTube back when I was about 30 in my high waist leather trousers! Norman said, “I didn’t know that you couldn’t sing Steven,” I replied, “how would you like your tartare cooked?” Lol It was typical Norman!
Steven Saunders’s opinions are his own and are not necessarily representative of those of the publishers, advertisers or sponsors.
Vietnamese Steak Tartare for 4 500g of best beef fillet hand chopped finely into small cubes
• 2 teaspoons of fish sauce • Juice of 1 lemon • Juice of 1 lime • 1 dessertspoonful of honey • 1 tbsp of fresh basil chopped finely • 1 tbsp of fresh mint leaves chopped finely • 1 tablespoon of fresh coriander chopped finely • A pinch of Maldon salt • A little ground black pepper
Ingredients for the dressing/ marinade • Half a red onion very finely chopped • 100 ml of red wine vinegar • 25g of brown sugar • 1 red mild jalapeno chilli finely chopped • 1 clove garlic peeled, blanched to remove bitterness and finely chopped • Approx 10g of fresh ginger (or pickled sushi ginger) finely chopped • Approx 10g of lemongrass puree • 50ml of extra virgin olive oil • 2 tbsp of soy sauce
SERVED: With prawn crackers and an air.
To construct and finish dish In a clean glass bowl place, your chopped beef. Now heat the vinegar and add the sugar and the onion and cook until the onion is soft and translucent. Allow to cool in a fridge

and then when cold add all the ingredients except for the herbs, bit by bit and mix well with the raw beef. Finally fold in the herbs and put into rings approx 6cm into shape To p w i t h p r a w n c r a c k e r s and the air (see below) if using. Note: the foam is made from soya lecithin we call it an air. It is made by heating water with a flavour like truffle (or a herb), add a flat tablespoon of the soya granules and with an electric blender you will create bubbles that stay up for a long time and when you eat them the flavour of the truffle bursts!

DAVID WORBOYS SORRY, Duchess, but I can’t think of a refined singleword synonym for the verb ‘to fart.’ We can say ‘to break wind,’ but that’s two words. Likewise, is there an alternative non-slang noun for ‘a fart’? No; we have to use two words, and this is where the unique inventiveness of Australian humour comes in. Hence the expressions ‘tail wind,’ ‘anal cough’ and, of course, ‘brown cloud.’ Many words and expressions are confused with similarsounding ones. ‘Disconnected’ is used meaning ‘unconnected’ and ‘according to’ in place of ‘in accordance with.’ ‘Entry’ is confused with ‘entrance.’ If we can’t find the right word, we tend to invent one. George W Bush famously invented the word ‘subliminable.’ Other people think
LIAM ANTHONY
UPON MY WORD!
CONFUSING WORDS: The US has influenced our spelling. they know a word but they get it wrong. Grievious (for grievous); henious (heinous); interpretate (interpret); labryinth (labyrinth); loyalism (loyalty); mischievious (mischievous); nucular (nuclear) and reputated (reputed) are a few examples I have noticed - both in speech and print.
Some are silly buzz words used over and over again by Sunday Times contributors, such as bling; cheesy; chutzpah; and twee. The word ‘sexy’ is used to describe software and ideas for cooking. Maybe, they think the use of these words is ‘cool.’ Others are intentional slang: fantabulous; gynormous; hu-
mungous; squillions; yonks. They are quite expressive and most of us know what they mean. The US has influenced our spelling, pronunciation and even meaning of words. Before the war, we in England had a per fectly good word for a thousand million (milliard) while a billion meant a million millions. It doesn’t any more. Brasil and civilise became Brazil and civilize; programme lost its last two letters; colour is widely spelt as color and many of us have capitulated to practice our beliefs rather than practise them. Was it the Americans who persuaded us to pronounce the English town of Shrewsbury to rhyme with Dewsbury? It’s unlikely that Chester will ever be spelt Cheicester, but will Leicester soon be spelt Lester? If we take phonetic spelling to its extreme, I shudder to think how
Norfolk will be spelt. Why is it necessary to use obscure acronyms in place of words which describe an organisation? We may know what UNO and NATO mean, but what about NASED (National Association of State Election Directors)? And why has their use in social media spread to expressions such as TBH (to be honest) and LOL (lots of love)? I began thinking about words when I heard this conversation on the terrace of a bar last week. I had no need to jot it down. “I kind of asked Harry, like.” “Cool. Like, did he know?” “He went “I dunno; you better ask the boss.” I then noticed that the guy sitting at the far end table, with an empty wine bottle in front of him, looked a bit bladdered. I hoped he wasn’t going to deliver a technicolour yawn on to the pavement.
Trans rights are human rights
An Open Book BACK in April, a few weeks into lockdown, I started writing a diary again. I guess the compulsion came from what was happening, that 2020 had to be documented in some way. My endeavour fizzled out quite quickly. I had forgotten that diaries often talk about what isn’t happening. This changed last week when I watched the Netflix documentary Disclosure. After watching Disclosure, a documentary by Sam Feder and Amy Scholder, I took to my diary and treated it like a proverbial soapbox. Disclosure is an extraordinary, yet an often-shocking insight into transgender representations in film and television. A plethora of actors and thinkers analyse and dissect how transgender characters have been depicted. Additionally, they share their own experiences too. The documentary reveals an obvious pattern. Trans characters have inevitably been pigeonholed into roles that an audience can digest. Roles that have been
FEATURE
DISCLOSURE: Provides an endless unfiltered truth that many of us have probably ignored. designed by the media’s depiction of what a trans person’s narrative should be like. A distorted one, nonetheless. A life reserved to be a victim of sexual abuse, a prostitute or a sexual predator. I couldn’t help thinking, this is the image that a mainstream audience wanted to see. People didn’t want to be proven wrong. If it
is on celluloid, then it must be true. One moment in the documentary which resonated with me was how trans characters were constantly reminded of their past. A transgender woman, who was playing the role of a cancer patient in a hospital drama, discovers that she has prostate cancer.
It was almost like a metaphorical ‘you’ll always be a man’ to an audience. There are some moments which are difficult to watch. Laverne Cox, who is a transgender actress, regularly contributes to the documentary by providing some invaluable observations. She unpacks a scene where a
transgender character is sexually assaulted. Cox is reduced to tears. Her observations on the film Boys Don’t Cry highlight the violence bestowed upon transgender people and somehow, their voices remain terrifyingly unheard. I had been basking in all my cowardice glory before writing about trans rights. Anchored with a feeling of insecurity. Not knowing enough. Watching the documentary left me with a burgeoning desire to write. Having my diary has given me the fuel I needed to acquiesce. Disclosure provides an endless unfiltered truth that many of us have probably ignored. Or comments that appear to be innocuous when actually, they are examples of transphobia. I have realised it isn’t about possessing a wealth of knowledge to show your support towards the trans community. It is the ability to recognise where the source of these portrayals has come from, often from a heteronormative agenda which manipulates the truth. Trans rights are human rights.

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 A n d a l u c i a n 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 any time. 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 in fo@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 rehoming, please call 653 257 875. Visit our website www.sos-animals.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.

Bayern Munich Have Been Crowned European Champions BAYERN MUNICH are champions of Europe for the first time since 2013 and for the sixth time in their history! Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) were better in the first half, but it was Kingsley Coman, who started his career at PSG, that came through with a 59th-minute header at the far post from Joshua Kimmich’s cross that left the French giants still searching for that elusive Champions League triumph. It was certainly a night of joy for Bayern coach Hansi Flick, who a d d e d the Champions League to the Bundesliga after initially taking over as interim coach from sacked Niko Kovac in November.
In contrast, it was a night of bitter disappointment for PSG’s two attacking superstars, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe, who failed to produce their best and found themselves frustrated by the Bayern keeper and man of the match, Manuel N e u e r, when they had the best of the first-
half chances. Mbappe’s pain increased in the second half when he looked to be tripped by Kimmich in the area, but PSG’s penalty claims were ignored which left Bayern to celebrate being crowned champions of Europe once more, becoming the first team to win the trophy by winning every Champions League game in a single campaign. Bayern closed the perfect Champions League with 11 victories in 11 games, the only shame was that the match had to be played to a virtually empty stadium in Lisbon, Portugal due to coronavirus restrictions.
KINGSLEY COMAN: Scored the 59th minute goal.
Matches on hold THE Walking Football League Managers are currently keeping a close eye on the daily figures issued by the Spanish Health Authorities in relation to the Covid virus. With the new League Season now only six weeks away and most teams ahead with their preparations the rise in the number of Covid cases is causing concern. With a meeting on September 10 to review the Provisional EPS League starting date of Sunday October 4, it is hoped the virus does not get worse and that the first five matches will take place at the Calahonda Venue. The season was due to start the first weekend in September but with the uncertainty at that time it was decided to postpone for one month. While sessions continue at some venues the cut and thrust of competitive League football is eagerly awaited by all teams. A meeting of Managers on Tuesday August 25 was held on Zoom to debate the Sponsorship offer from Elite Pathways Sports (London). Several aspects of the offer required clarification with a vote taking place at the end of the meeting. See next week’s EWN for the result.
