The streets of Benidorm will be a sea of green over the weekend; thousands of people visit the resort of Benidorm to celebrate Ireland’s national day - St Patrick´s Day. The celebrations will start on the Friday 14th when many visitors arrive, once the bags are dropped off at the hotels then the party weekend will start. The annual event for Paddy’s Day is getting more and more popular and is almost on the same scale as the November Fiestas. St Patrick´s Day celebrations have been celebrated in Benidorm for many years becoming one of the most popular places to visit for the event outside of the UK and Ireland. The big fiesta party will be most enjoyed at some of the local Irish bars, the most popular is the beach front Guinness Bar, and just around the corner the Bodhran Bar Av Dr Orts Llorca just off of the main beach front.

Hello readers, what a great week it has been simply “shamazing” it was as soon as March hit us the sun got warmer and the shorts, t-shirts and people wearing very little were on the streets. A taste of things to come of course and now this week is probably one of the most exciting weeks of the year. Why you might ask? Well for Sports it the one of the biggest horse racing events from 11th - 14th Cheltenham festival followed by the final show down of the Six Nations with everything to play for we will see the fight for the title on Saturday 15th back to back action with all six teams with a point to prove facing the prospect of being champions!! With thousands of new arrivals on this week for Fiestas and St Patricks Weekend, the word Weekend is very important because Paddy’s Day has now become so big all over the World that it’s not just on the 17th that its celebrated, it is stretched out over the weekend. So be prepared to get started on Friday 14th and be in for the long haul of fun, right through until the end of play on Monday 17th so for most it will be early hours of the 18th… To plan for the weekend we have put together a centre page pull out feature so you can see what’s on and where. We will see you around town all week together with our photographer getting loads of happy snaps and looking for the very best fancy dress so look out for us!!

The sun is forecast to be shining, so everyone will be out on the terraces and the Guinness will definitely be flowing. Many of the bars will have live music all day and be decorated to suit the theme with bunting, balloons and much more. What will be interesting is to see if there are any bars or restaurants that actually take on the Irish culinary skills to provide some traditional dishes? Week long visitors will enjoy the famous Cheltenham Races starting on 11th and together with the grand finale of the Six Nations this weekend when possibly France can beat or draw with Ireland to help England take the title! Many bars have special St Patrick offers for Guinness and Jameson’s Whisky with Free hats and T-Shirts promotions, ideal memorabilia to take back home together with many sore heads making that

QUICK TIPS- Residency Status

CAR TRANSFER AND IMPORTATION

In our weekly article we are looking at all aspects of life in Spain and the rules, regulations and best ways of integrating into their system.This week we will look at vehicles. Due to the fact that in the UK it is only necessary to write the name of the purchaser into the bottom of the log book and post it off to the DVLA in Swansea- It is a common misperception for foreigners to Spain to believe that when they buy a car in Spain it will be sufficient to just have a hand written “bill of sale” on the back of a napkin. Unfortunately, like many bureaucratic processes in this country- it is a lot more complicated than that. When you buy a vehicle in Spain there is a standart transfer tax payable to the traffic office to cover their administration fees but there is also a purchase tax which is alculated on the age, make, model, engine size and Co2 emissions of the vehicle. The amount of tax payable per vehicle are all listed in the equivalent of the “glasses guide” for Spain, so the only reason the price would alter is due to the fees charged by each Gestoria. You can carry out the transfer yourself but it can be very complicated and time consuming as you have to pay in various different offices and get various documents stamped and then queue at the traffic office in Alicante, which when your average Gestoria charges less than 50€ for this service- it is usually not worth the petrol, parking, two days of your time queing and employing the services of a translator. We do advise in all cases, wether transfering the ownership yourself in person or using a Gestoria that when buying a road vehicle of any description it is wise to have it checked for outstanding taxes or fines that may be owed as the debts are inherited along with the vehicle. You must also make sure that when you purchase the vehicle you obtain a copy of the identification of the vendor as withoiut their NIE number and other details, the vehicle cannot be transfered. When considering importing a car, you should note that a car with foreign plates should be imported into Spain within 6 months of the date of you becoming a resident of Spain, if you are caught beyond that time the fine can be in the region of 200€. Remember that your headlights will need to be reset for driving on "the otehr side of the road". The other factor which is important is that you must be registered on the Town Hall "Padrón" (electoral roll) this will provide proof of where your vehicle is "habitually resident in Spain"- in some cases your title deeds will be sufficient. We can discuss the "Padrón" its uses and requirements this coming week. ALBA Consultas Ltd Telephone: 692 386 293 Email: info@albaconsultas.com

Spanish drivers are the second worst in Europe according to research from the French motoring foundation Vinci Autoroutes and the Europe-wide market research firm IPSO which surveyed 7,000 people. 16% of those questioned said that they feel that the Spaniards were the worst behind the wheel, but that figure could not hold a candle on the winners, Italy, where a staggering 50% said their drivers were most dangerous on the continent. Swedish drivers were seen as the most responsible drivers, with 47% naming them as safest, follows by the Germans, who got 26% and then the British with 13%. Spanish drivers are more likely to use their horns in stressful situations â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 67% of motorists in Spain admitted to doing so, compared to the European average of 47%.

Top 5 fashion buys for Spring/Summer 2014

There’s nothing like the arrival of new season clothes in the shops to perk us up. It’s always very tempting to run out and buy the first spring looks you see, but to ensure you don’t end up frittering away funds on random purchases, we’ve done a bit of window shopping on your behalf. Snap up some of our top 10 buys for spring/summer 2014 below (many already in stores and others to come), selected with the key trends of the season in mind, and you’ll have the perfect capsule wardrobe to take you through to the warmer months. Just try not to be too smug about it.

1. Pleats please The pleated skirt was everywhere on the SS14 catwalks, from Antipodium to Roksanda Ilincic and J.W. Anderson. Of course, pleats have been around for a while but you can bring the trend bang up to date for spring by opting for a knife pleat in an iridescent fabric, as seen at Christopher Kane’s standout show. This M&S skirt is perfect. Marks and Spencer Autograph skirt, £55, out in MayMarks and Spencer Autograph skirt, £55 2. Broad brush strokes Prada, Chanel and Celine all got the Pantone charts and paint pots out for the new season, with murals adorning dresses and paint daubed across smock shirts and jackets. Get the look with this colourful ASOS shirt, which will look great with some cigarette trousers in the office or jeans at the weekend.

ASOS shirt in bright stripe, £36, out nowASOS shirt in bright stripe, £36, out now 3. Sweet like candy Who can forget Burberry’s candy striped show finale under falling rose petals back in September? Those pastel lace separates and embellished trench coats will no doubt be much imitated on the high street. Be the first to wear the trend in this cute tee and pencil skirt from Red Herring at Debenhams. Wear with silver block heels and pop on a mint green boyfriend coat for cold days. Red Herring lace top, £28, at DebenhamsRed Herring lace top, £28, at Debenhams Red Herring pink lace pencil skirt, £35, at DebenhamsRed Herring pink lace pencil skirt, £35, at Debenhams 4. Bermuda/city shorts Bermuda shorts featured on many of the catwalks for SS14, including Topshop Unique and Ashley Williams, and will be perfect worn with your pool sliders and bomber jacket, or with a 90s spaghetti strap top when it’s warm. Alternatively, go for these more formal, floral city shorts from Hobbs (very similar to those seen at Mulberry), which will look amazing with the coordinating jacket (also available) for a summer wedding, or with a shirt for the office. NW3 botanical shorts, £89, HobbsNW3 botanical shorts, £89, Hobbs 5. Sheer brilliance

Sheer fabrics were used by designers from Preen to Calvin Klein and Fyodor Golan. This black skirt with a sheer panel at the bottom from Next is an easy way of accessing this look without baring a little too much. Wear with a sweatshirt on cooler days or a boxy crop top for summer.

Ringworm is a common fungal infection of the skin. It has nothing to do with worms as the name suggests! The medical term for ringworm of the body is Tinea Corporalis. Tinea is a latin term that means growing worm due to the early belief that the infection was caused by a worm. There are other forms of Tinea which affect various parts of the body such as Tinea capitis (fungal infection of the scalp) or Tinea Pedis which affects the feet The typical appearance of Tinea corporalis is a round red inflamed patch that spreads outwards. The outer edge forms a scaly ring. There may be one patch or several. However, the appearance of the rash is not always typical and your Doctor may need to take skin scrapings for examination to confirm diagnosis. The rash may cause only mild discomfort but for some people may be very irritating and itchy. Ringworm is an infectious disease and may

be passed directly from person to person by direct skin contact. Sharing towels etc with an infected person can also spread the infection. Contact with an infected animal can also cause ringworm. If you suspect that your pet may be infected, see a Vet before you start itching!! Fungus also survives in soil and can live on surfaces such as doors that have been touched by an infected person. Ringworm can be easily treated with antifungal creams. Sometimes a steroid cream may also be needed to control itching and inflammation .Other forms of ringworm such as that of the scalp normally require treatment with antifungal tablets as cream alone may not clear the infection. Always check with a Doctor before using antifungal preparations as some groups of people such as those with existing illnesses or taking certain medications that interact with antifungals, should not use them. If you have symptoms of Ringworm, see your family Doctor.

Drop In

Up Hill Near Levante | C/ Londres Benidorm,

“A typical characterful local Pub.”

Reviewed 9 March 2014 The only reason I’ve not reviewed the Drop Inn before now is my late-in-life familiarity with the Web ! My family and I have been regulars there for 12 years and we are made to feel at home in the sun every visit. Tony, Kate, Diane, Tommy, Maria and Ross accept you as one of the family. Expats also make you welcome. Prices are very good and quality of food and drink are excellent. Great Sports coverage. We book our Hotel on the basis of nearness to the Pub.Avoid being bored by the shallowness of other Pub/Restaurants. Drop in and you won’t regret it.

“Spot on !”

Reviewed 15 February 2014 Stopped here several time in jan/feb and just had the small portions as it was more than enough for me. Liver and onions and roast dinners served everyday and both were very tasty. Good atmosphere and nice people.

“Best fresh cooked food in benidorm.”

Have been going to the drop inn for a few years now. The food is freshly cooked for you and the staff are very friendly too.nothing is to much for them to make you feel welcome.Will be going back in july and hope to see Ross & Margaret and the rest of the staff. By the way the drink is cheap as well. From Sadie & Davy.

“Friendly place”

Reviewed 8 January 2014 We went to Benidorm over Christmas and went to the Drop Inn most days for breakfast. The prices are very reasonable and the food is great. The kitchen is clean and the staff are very friendly and will do anything to make you feel at home. Ross always made us laugh and couldn’t do enough for us. All the staff worked hard and we didn’t have to wait long for food even though they were always busy. Two Palms Res

Universal Lounge Bar Avd Albir 68 bajo, El Albir

“Really good spare-ribs!”

Reviewed 12 December 2013 Even of it is a bit cold in December, you can still eat outside during the day. I visited the place twice during this week, and have tried both the Argentinian beef they serve; it was really good, but the spare-ribs were better! The price was 13.75 Euros and it was really worth it`s price. I recommend this place for meatlovers, but they have godd sandwiches and bocadillos too. Try the place next time you are in Albir!

“Good service with great food”

Reviewed 8 October 2013 Visited the cafe bar which can be found in the main street in El Albir.Nice relaxing terrace with friendly staff.When all had salads as it was two hot for anything else,They were very good. The only comment i have as a negative was the size of the glasses of wine which were very small.Otherwise nice place to visit.

“Love, love, love it!”

Reviewed 2 October 2013 This is the best lounge bar cafe to go to in Albir by far. Ran by a lovely couple and their staff are also great. Friendly and super fast service. I go there most weeks for coffee early in the morning when they’re busy and the service is still fab . They also serve the best make of coffee in the world (in my opinion) Italian brand “illy” Food also good they do a beautiful Caesar salad. Mmmmmmm.

“Fantastic bar friendly staff.”

Reviewed 14 September 2013 Been going to Albir for the last five years and we have breakfast every day in The Universal. The coffee, croissant and spanish toasted baguettes are the best in town. All the staff are really friendly and professional, remembering what you like to eat and drink and enjoy listening to your broken Spanish with patience!. Wifi is available and they don’t mind you sitting there for a couple of hours online.

Reviewed 4 March 2014 Have been going to Haweli every time we go back to L’Albir. The prawn puree is to die for. Service is excellent and ambiance great. The food is excellent whichever starter/main course you have. I would recommend to all curry lovers.

“Excellent Indian Meal by far the best in Albir”

Reviewed 17 January 2014 Visited this Indian Restaurant with friends twice in the last few days 12th Jan 2014 being our first visit and again 3 days later this is by far the best Indian in Albir. First of all it looks the business inside and the staff are friendly and are very helpful. Our food was first class, well presented and plenty of it. The menu is extensive and if you want something different just ask they are willing to accommodate your request if they can. We all had different meals and each one looked and tasted different which is a bonus these days. Just do not take my word for it try it you will pleasantly be surprised. Yes Indian meals always seem to be more expensive these days but is also on par with the other restaurants in Albir.

“Tasty, Value and Adequate, no-rush to go back”

We had a set €25 eat-as-much buffet and we got good value with cava, beer and wine. Everything was very tasty but apart from the onion bhajis nothing wow’d me! Sauces, rice, naan were very nice but they skimp on meat and vegetables a bit. The beef dish was a little tough (so I suspect a cheaper cut was used) and food temperature varied - I like my food hot. The service was attentive and the staff very pleasant. Just not sure the buffet suited us, i think we prefer to be served and an al-a-carte menu but the buffet was plentiful but limited choices. The two desserts on offer were not to my liking, we would have preferred plain ice cream. Red house wine was mediocre - we have had better from the supermarket. Overall we enjoyed the food but have no great desire to return for the buffet or probably the restaurant again. For an extra €5 we would recommend the El Boulevard nearer the Albir beach.

It’s all you need for a great read. was stolen with their child under 7 years of age asleep still inside. The thief was apparently unaware of the child being inside the vehicle, and just saw an opportunity to steal the vehicle, with the keys inside and the engine running. The owners were alerted immediately as the hijacker being in a rush spun the wheels causing loud screeching and a smell of burning rubber as the car sped away from the scene fleeing toward Altea. A local police patrol who were in the area, also heard the screech as the vehicle departed and incredibly stopped the car just 200 metres from where it was taken. The person arrested was a 35 year old male, believed to be of Serbian nationality, he remains in custody pending confirmation of his identity, police have identified two different records of whom he claims to be, one of which has criminal past.

Scottish tourist dies in Spain A Hibs ladies football coach has died after falling from the balcony of her fifth-floor hotel room in Benidorm Morgan Lynn, 25, was on holiday in Benidorm with two female friends, and had been out with them for the evening, when the tragedy occurred. Local police and the Foreign Office said Ms Lynn who lives in Edinburgh, fell from her 5th floor balcony at around 3am after she and her companions returned to the Hotel Gala

Ms Lynn grew up in the Borders and went to Hawick High School before studying at Edinburgh’s Queen Margaret University, where she graduated in 2009 with an HND in Business Management.

PATRICK´S DAY This week so much is going on you will be lost for choice, St. Patricks day is not until Monday 17th so it gives holidaymakers and party goers the chance to celebrate all weekend, you will be surrounded with a vast amount of Irish entertainment along with decorations, costumes, food, drink and much more. The weekend also is the start of “Las Fallas” a Valencian festival which goes on for 5 days, with parades, parties and fireworks. If you’re in Benidorm this week the resort really is buzzing and is jam packed full of things to see and do,

St Patricks Weekend St. Paddy’s day in Benidorm is always a fantastic occasion , every year the streets of Benidorm are full of life, the pubs and bars are decorated with Irish, leprechaun and shamrock flags!!!, for the whole weekend you might forget your in Benidorm especially after one to many drinks, just how the Irish like to celebrate! Irish, British, Spanish and more many other nationalities are in the streets celebrating (and drinking) the national day of Ireland. The party this year will last all weekend you can enjoy in the pubs until very late, and dance until sunrise, some pubs even have special prices for beers and cider and you guessed it Guinness!. If you need a costume or some party favours head down to The Original Benidorm Jokeshop, just off Calle Gerona next to the Why Not bar. Las Fallas 15th – 19th March The Fiesta of “San Jose” For five days the castles, monuments and “mascletaes” become the protagonists of Benidorm, where the smell of gunpowder is interspersed with the smell of flowers and the music of the bands with the sound of masclets. A transformation that occurs as a prelude to spring, and on March 19th, everything ends and everything begins; with the last of the ashes people start to dream of Fallas again for the following year. The festival of San José takes place in Benidorm from the 15th to the19th of March. Like the city of Valencia, Benidorm honours San José with Las Fallas - a festival of nightly street parties and rowdy fireworks. Three giant papier-mâché statues (ninots) are erected and then ceremoniously burned to the ground on the final evening. The trio of statues, known as Central Falla, Rincon Falla and Els

Tolls Falla, are constructed by - and placed in - the different districts of Benidorm. The areas try to outdo each other with their huge and elaborate designs and often use the statues to poke fun at local celebrities and politicians. The Valencian fiesta is celebrated in Benidorm with the erection of the Fallas and there is plenty to enjoy with fireworks and concerts. The ninots are burnt on the 19th and is the best part of the festival. Fallas Calendar We have included a rundown of the Las Fallas festivities below so you know where to be and when!

Saturday 15th “The Planta” – This is when the Fallas ninots are lifted into designated positions these the three big statues will stay here until they are burnt on the last day. You can find them at The Plaza Triangular, Rincon de Loix opposite Burger King and Calle Tomas Ortuno in the Old Town Sunday 16th Along with parties through the weekend Sunday draws to an end with a parade from 7.00pm after a “mass” church service will be held in the San Jaime Church Monday 17th Starting at 10.30am in the Rincon de Loix, a fantastic band will play music and dance around the first ninot and then go on to parade the streets, towards the other two statues where they will do the same. Tuesday 18th Tuesday is the Flower offering, another traditional part of the festival starting at 6.00pm there is a parade along the Mediterraneo. Wednesday 19th The final day of the festival is what everyone has been waiting for, starting at 6.00pm there is a huge parade with floats along the Avd Mediterraneo it will finish in the Plaza Triangular and at 11.00pm they start by burning of the children’s statues, from here they will burn the big statues in turn. 12.00pm Rincon, 12.00pm, Plaza Triangular, 1.00pm Old Town.

La Nucia

La Nucia Dog Homing

Does a dog have doubts, so why should we. You have probably heard of the saying ‘That if you think you can’t or you think you can, then you are probably right’ or ‘if you aim for nothing, then you will probably be very successful’ I was thinking about this the other day and began to wonder if our dog friends have the same kind of thoughts. Do they enter the pound and think ‘oh well I might as well give up’ or do they enter and just get on with life. Some of them come through the doors of Benidorm Dog Pound and start to shake with fear, perhaps the same as a condemned man walking through the prison halls for the first time. The noise from the other dogs is an assault on your senses when you are a volunteer; dogs have much more sensitive hearing and must suffer terribly. They are locked in a cage. Food is from hotel left overs and biscuits to give them bulk. A walk, well it’s a distant dream as they may get one a week if they are lucky. Yet these dogs don’t give up, they look to you for love and attention. That short walk and cuddle is longed for, hoped for and enjoyed for every second you can spare them as they strain on their leads to find a short burst of freedom through the blue gates. How can I prove that dogs don’t give up that they never stop hoping, well I went

through the pound and found some of our longest serving captives, dogs that have been here 5 years, all their lives and yet still dream that one day a home will be theirs. If a dog can still dream when the odds of being picked out of the pen are 300/1 then perhaps it’s time to believe you can be where you want to be. Please can you help find a long serving dog a home by checking out Benidorm Dog Homing facebook page and look for Nando, Mesut, Desperado, Saltitos and Tango. You can call Maria on 677 37 33 96 to find out more. Gill Brookshaw (Life Coach) www.recoveringme.co.uk Phone 603295030 Dog of the week: Manuelo This lovely girl is 2 and half years old. We know because she was born in the pound and has never known human love till now. She is now learning what a walk on soil feels like after life in a concrete cell. Cars are a new experience and make her feel a bit nervous at the moment. The human hand causes her to be worried and now that she is learning to trust we are able to get her on a lead and take her for a walk. She is great on the lead and looks up at you for reassurance that all is Ok with sweet eyes. A medium sized dog, about labrador size and yet gentle and happy to just have life's chance of a home. Find out more by joining our facebook page at Benidorm Dog Homing or you can call Maria on 677 37 33 96 to find out more.

La Nucia will host the National Sports Gala 2015 La Nucia will host the 35th edition of the National Sports Gala, where the best athletes and Spanish teams are rewarded for their accomplishments during 2014. La Nucia, as confirmed by the National Congress of the Spanish Association of Sports Newspapers (AEPD), will take over from Santander, where Monday's awards were presented for the efforts of 2013. The dates on which the event will take place are yet to be decided, but the idea is that the National Sports Gala and Congress AEPD are to be held in the last week of February or the first week of March.

U3A MARINA BAIXA VISIT TO GANDIA

On Friday 7th.March 55 members of the U3A Marina Baixa enjoyed their first outing of 2014. Leaving Albir by luxury coach at 9am the first stop of the day was for morning coffee at the Viva Espania, Oliva, giving everyone the opportunity to say meet their fellow trippers. Our destination was Gandia to visit The Ducal Palace, also known as the Palace of the Borgia family. The tour began at 11.00am with an English speaking guide who had a wealth of knowledge to share with us about the history of the Palace. The oldest part of the Palace dates from the 15th.Century and was renovated in 2010 to celebrate the 500th Anniversary of the birthplace of Francisco Borja. The Golden Gallery and the Crown Hall were spectacular and the members of the University of the Third Age absorbed this with enthusiasm. After the tour the group had time to explore Gandia. Some were happy to sit in the square and enjoy a drink in the sunshine, others took advantage of the shopping and restaurants Gandia has to offer. advertise Rob Parker the travel co-ordinator finds interesting places to visit for the travel with us AND group increasing our knowledge of the architecture, culture and traditions of Spain. Our next trip will be the 4th.April to Novelda, Castle of La Mola, Sanctuary of Santa Maria Magdalena, and the Bodega Salvador Poveda in Monovar. On the 2nd.May we will visit Caravaca de La Cruz for the Festival of the wine horses and if enough interest is shown by the U3A members a possible 2 nights FOR AS LITTLE stay on the Mar Menor.

MARCH ISSUE No.2/ 11th-17th March 2014 (#22)

It’s all you need for a great read.

Your weekly Horoscope ARIES

Even big, bad, bold you needs a little support now and then - like at the beginning of this week. Since you’re usually so self-sufficient, you might have to ask. By Wednesday and Thursday, though, the stars send bountiful super energy right to you, and you’re probably ready to make a daring move (at work? In the love department? Maybe both?). Go for it! If you’re staying up late or partying on Friday and Saturday, be sure to make up for it with some healthy stuff, too. And on Sunday, use a little charm to get your desire.

CANCER

You may want to nest or play it safe at the beginning of the week, but the stars are sending some not-to-be-missed possibilities your way. Welcome the new energy and make a new start. On Wednesday or Thursday, it might be time for a splurge - you deserve a reward, don’t you? Plans go nicely on Friday and Saturday, and you’ve got the ability to make others feel understood and right at home, no matter where you are. Sunday brings a problem and an active, honest approach gets things going in the right direction.

LIBRA

Just getting through your regular tasks may be tough at the beginning of the week, but getting upset about it won’t help. Keep at it, and look for better energy coming your way on Wednesday and Thursday. Now you’re making progress, and looking so good doing it that others might just ask you what your secret is. Will you tell? Social time’s favoured on Friday and Saturday, as is some lazing about - that is, recharging those batteries. A couple of days of extra sexiness start on Sunday - what are you going to do to take advantage?

CAPRICORN

TAURUS

Home may be where the heart is at the beginning of the week, but communication’s favoured now, too. Get on the phone or online and share your feelings, and you’ll get very nice responses. You could encounter somebody as stubborn as you on Wednesday or Thursday; think what you can accomplish if you join forces instead of butting heads! On Friday and Saturday, you’re looking lucky, and the chance for romance is looking good. Plan a great date or head out on the town with friends. On Sunday, excitement awaits in an unexpected place. Find it!

LEO

You have a catlike sixth sense at the beginning of the week, with the reflexive knowledge of how to approach people and situations. You’ll definitely land on your feet now. Wednesday and Thursday look even better, with your personal heat turned up to sizzling. Energy, excitement, fun and fabulousness are there for the taking. Keep your expenditures to a minimum on Friday and Saturday; feed your mind instead of opening your wallet. On Sunday, the universe serves you sweetness, with a cherry on top. Revel in it.

SCORPIO

Dreams, intuition and other less-than-logical stuff figure prominently at the beginning of the week. Heed your inner voice, and let your subconscious provide clues. Around Wednesday or Thursday, some real-world hassles require your attention; handling them calmly reduces the stress factor. Your karma gets a major boost if you step outside yourself and donate your time, money or expertise (or all three) to a good cause on Friday or Saturday. And on Sunday, be extra patient with everyone - including yourself.

AQUARIUS

Conflict, opposition or limiting factors may come into play at the beginning of the week, and your response is everything. Use your powers of patience and flex your muscle of understanding. Make a busy schedule and stick to it on Wednesday and Thursday - it could come in handy when you’re asked to do something you’d rather not do. Friday and Saturday find a goal or two definitely within reach, and not just when it comes to work, either. On Sunday, the vibe is good for kicking off a new project.

Even if you’re off-balance at the beginning of the week, stick with your routine as much as possible. Going through the motions has a therapeutic effect. By Wednesday and Thursday, you can identify a contradiction, make a discovery and find a way to move forward that feels great. An interruption or delay could be a good thing now. You’re not so much judging books by their covers as speed-reading on Friday and Saturday; find out a lot in short order. On Sunday, the stars send extra brains and curiosity your way.

SUDOKU

KAKURO

see us in the Indoor market GEMINI

Being thrifty at the beginning of the week gives you a bit of a creative challenge, and it also gives you a little extra for a future plan or splurge. Make your own lunch and make your own fun. You’re quick with ideas and have the stamina to carry them out around Wednesday and Thursday. Progress abounds! On Friday and Saturday, watch out for some sort of interference - a misunderstanding, a busybody, something getting lost in the shuffle. Be clear and concise. Sunday’s stars send you extra sexiness now. Make the most of it!

VIRGO

Turn those organizational abilities toward planning a social event or a great date at the beginning of the week - it’ll likely come together as the best thing ever. You may be the underdog in a certain situation on Wednesday or Thursday, but somebody’s pulling for you. Figure out who, and get some tips and support. Friday and Saturday are great days to be you. With the stars on your side, you can get a ton done and also attract some attention via your extra sparkle. On Sunday, don’t commit. You’ll want to stick with ‘maybe’ on any big decisions - at least for today.

SAGITTARIUS

A deeper, more meaningful level can be reached at the beginning of the week, whether in a relationship or in your own outlook. Your core values are especially relevant now. You’re a winner on Wednesday and Thursday, if the stars have their say - and remember, you can’t win if you don’t play. Take a chance (maybe in the realm of romance!). Beware of imbalances of power on Friday and Saturday; anyone who thinks they’re the boss of you could be problematic. You’re extra articulate and very tuned on on Sunday - speak up!

PISCES

You’ve got the power of love on your side at the beginning of the week - platonic, romantic, altruistic and more. How will you use its mysterious forces? Wednesday or Thursday ask that you hone your concentration and be attentive to what’s around you. The most mundane things hold important keys now. You’re rather analytical on Friday and Saturday, which may take somebody by surprise. Show your soft side, too. Sunday is all about sorting through old things to make way for new ones.

It's not been confirmed yet who exactly that will include, though hopefully there's a decent stash available to listen to by the time the device is launched. One nice piece of news is that the device will, apparently, not feature any DRM restrictions. Whether a standalone portable digital music player is what the world really needs in 2014 is up for debate. But for some audiophiles, the March 15th pre-order day might not be here soon enough.

Neil Young's new music player, Pono, has been on the cards for some time. But now, there are finally some real details: from March 15th, you'll be able to pre-order one on Kickstarter for £240. The big, bright triangular digital music player provides "studio master-quality digital music at the highest audio fidelity possible" according to PonoMusic, which gives listeners the ability to "experience music the way the artists intended." It remains to be seen exactly how accurate that is—and whether there's consumer demand for it—but it's kind of neat that the Canadian rocker is pushing the idea so hard.

Six Nations Emphatic England end

It’s all you need for a great read.

11-year wait for Triple Crown at Twickenham

England won their first Triple Crown for 11 years and stayed firmly on course for the RBS 6 Nations title after reigning champions Wales wilted in glorious Twickenham sunshine. Emphatically avenging a record drubbing at Wales' hands last season, England's 29-18 victory means if they beat Italy in Rome next Saturday and current tournament leaders Ireland lose or draw away to France, then Chris Robshaw's men will take the title. Wales' bid for an unprecedented Six Nations title hat-trick effectively ended on a sobering afternoon for a team that

was also dismantled by Ireland four weeks ago. Scrum-half Danny Care and centre Luther Burrell scored tries during the opening 35 minutes for England, while Owen Farrell kicked 19 points, landing all seven of his shots at goal. Only Leigh Halfpenny's astonishing accuracy - six penalties from six attempts - kept Wales interested, but they could have no complaints as England's dominance gained a rich and right reward on the scoreboard. It was a landmark success in England coach Stuart Lancaster's two-year reign, and also struck an early psychological blow ahead of the countries' World Cup 2015 pool meeting in 18 months' time.

England's rugby union players gave supporters an insight into their dressing room celebrations after a dominating 29-18 victory over Wales in the Six Nations on Sunday. After Ellen Degeneres sparked the trend of a 'superstar selfie' at the Oscars last week, England hooker Dylan Hartley

FA Cup: Wigan KO Man City



FA Cup holders Wigan booked a semi-final date with Arsenal after stunning Manchester City in a 2-1 win at The Etihad. Jordi Gomez and James Perch struck as Wigan kept their defence going with an heroic display on Sunday afternoon. Gomez converted a penalty after more bad defending by the erratic Martin Demichelis and Perch tapped in early in the second half as the holders booked a semi-final date with Arsenal at Wembley. Samir Nasri did pull one back with a 20-yard half-volley on 68 as City produced a strong finish but they

Adrian Lewis £50,000 Jackpot

A good week for ‘Jackpot’ in the darts as he came from 6-3 down to rescue a point against world champion Michael van Gerwen in the Premier League before going on to add a fourth major over the weekend with victory in the UK Open in Minehead. Lewis emerged from the ‘FA Cup of darts’ and a field of 138 hopefuls before battering Terry Jenkins 11-1 in the final. Lewis moved back up to World No 3 in the process and also took home a £50,000 first prize, not bad for a weekend away in Butlins.

were unable to prevent a repeat of Wigan's shock victory in last year's final at Wembley. The result was a tactical triumph for former City striker Uwe Rosler, who has revived Wigan's fortunes since taking over as manager in December. A week ago his side produced a fightback to snatch the Capital One Cup from Sunderland but they could not repeat the feat and hopes of a domestic treble are over.

Sheffield dream on English third-tier club Sheffield United kept alive their FA Cup dream when two goals in as many minutes gave them a 2-0 victory over Charlton Athletic and a place in the semi-finals. They were joined in the last four by Hull City, who overcame a missed penalty by Sone Aluko to trounce Sunderland 3-0 in their allPremier League quarterfinal. Hull’s Curtis Davies, David Meyler and Matty Fryatt scored in a nine-minute spell, capitalising on two wretched mistakes by Sunderland midfielder Lee Cattermole as Steve Bruce’s club advanced to the semis for the first time since 1930.
