Local residents’roadmisery The residents of La Zenia Golf 1 and surrounding urbanisations, many of whom are elderly and retired, are suffering what they describe as “torture” due to the excessive noise that heavy trucks make as they travel over the metal traffic calming bumps that have been placed outside their homes. he road in question is the constantly busy Ctra Villa Martin, the road that leads from La Zenia roundabout to Villa Martin, providing the main access route to Zenia Boulevard. Residents say that from around 5am the noise begins and is impossible to ignore, waking residents and meaning any deep sleep after that time is impossible. One resident said: “We used to live in a quiet and peaceful osasis, our slice of Eutopia but our peace and quiet has been shattered, the noise is constant all day and night. It is making people stressed and ill.” Local holiday home owner Kathleen Callaghan said: “I have talked with a

number of the residents, people who live here, and have been saddened to hear how their dream has been destroyed, I will be leaving here shortly and I will get respite from this misery. However, I feel deeply for those that have to endure the sleep deprivation and the anxiety associated with this constant noise. To this end I have called to the Town Hall and have submitted a complaint form to them accompanied by the signatures of residents and businesses in the area seeking the removal of the ramps.” However, residents are not hopeful that the local co-ordinator for the Coast not the Town Hall will be helpful.

Spanish resident Luis first complained in writing to Orihuela Town Hall in 2013 and despite taking several updated letters to the local government over the years, having them formally submitted and stamped, has never even received a reply. Many of the residents have lived in the area for more than 15 years at which CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

BITE SIZE NEWS: Internet safety at Las Culturas On the 19th May police officers from the Guardia Civil attended Las Culturas Primary School in Torrevieja to talk to the children there about internet safety. Concerns about the vulnerability of young people when using the internet are rising and the talk was intended to help the children understand the potential risks and how to keep themselves safe.

Moves to improve the dog pound Councillor Carmen Morate has announced plans to improve the Torrevieja dog pound during a meeting with volunteers and council workers. Although changes have already been underway, Carmen does not underestimate the complexity of making the much-needed changes to the ethos of the pound. This was the first meeting of its kind and included members of the animal rights association for Torrevieja and Guardamar. Several months ago the association denounced the dog pound for some of the practices of the workers and there was tension between the two. The meeting has enabled both groups to rise above the problems of the past and to take note of the improvements that have already been made and will be made in the future. It was useful in order to answer questions and to agree new methods of working. Continued on page 4

time the road was a single lane accommodating local residents. They understand that you cannot stop progress and that the area had grown and that traffic levels have increased and must be accommodated. All they are asking is for different traffic calming measures be used; pelican crossings, flashing speed signs or long and low concrete sleeping policemen – anything that will stop the noise of the lorries clanging over several sets of the metal bumps. Few drivers stick to the speed limit of 30kph and the higher the speed the louder the noise. Many residents have expressed their disappointment at the lack of response from the authorities when they have asked for proper pedestrian crossings and improved, quieter measures to be installed.

The Costa Blanca People went to meet residents recently and the noise was very noticeable. We spoke to several residents whose lives have been affected. Barry said: “Local residents are the ones who are now paying the price for Zenia Boulevard, for the politicians it’s all about the money and they have no concern for the misery we suffer every day. All we want is some consideration. A few changes are all we are asking for.” Many residents said they came to Spain because of the reputation the country has in relation to caring for the elderly, but have been shown no compassion so far. After getting no help from Sofia Alvarez, Co-ordinator for Orihuela Costa, Luis is now going to approach CLARO for help. Mireille Toddington

BITE SIZE NEWS:

Brexit debate comes to the coast The Brexit debate hotted up here on the Coast recently as Matthew Engel, from the UK national newspaper The Guardian came to Orihuela Costa to report on the opinions of British expats on the referendum to leave or stay in the European Union.

D

UE TO TIGHT TIMESCALES, a mini-debate, rather than a full open public debate, was hosted at The Asturias Restaurant to enable him to meet local residents and journalists to gauge their views on the subject. Around 30 people attended and all were passionate about Brexit, whether for or against and the debate was quite heated in parts. Many voiced concerns over British everyday life and well being if Brexit is successful, the NHS service, jobs and the economy, defence and international trade were all raised as areas of concern. Unsurprisingly, expats are also concerned about issues specific to life in Spain including property values, benefits and the knock-on effects to status here in Spain from changes to driving licences and documentation to medical provision. There were many interesting points raised on

immigration, defence and trade in particularly with some people believing England would be better off alone to make its own decisions and others concerned that leaving the security of a larger body would leave the county exposed and with a ‘little island’ standing in the global community. One thing that was quite obvious and the only definite fact to come out of the debate was that noone knows what will happen or the consequences if Britain leaves the EU. Speculation is rife and for every claim of the government, the supporters of Brexit have a counter-claim making it virtually impossible for voters to make a decision based on solid fact and certainty. British expats who have been registered to vote in UK within the last 15 years now have until Tuesday 7th June to apply for a proxy vote in the EU Referendum. That is the final deadline for registering to take part in one of the most historic decisions that the British people will make for a generation. The deadline for registering for a postal vote has now passed, but you can still appoint someone you trust in the UK to vote for you. More than 120,000 people with Spanish IP addresses have now visited www.gov.uk/register-toMatthew Engel

Tickets selling out fast

For the last week or so official polls have given the ‘remain’ camp a clear lead of 55 per cent compared up 45 per cent for ‘leave’. However the latest YouGov poll on the 17th May narrowed the lead to 45 per cent for remain and 40 per cent to leave, with a higher ‘don’t know’ of 15 per cent. So, overall it was a good week for the remain camp in terms of opinion polls.

Studio 32’s production of ‘Fiddler on the Roof’ will take place in two week’s time and with Friday night’s performance already sold out and limited availability on other nights, those interested are urged to get their tickets soon. The show includes many well-known songs such as ‘If I were a Rich Man’ and ‘Sunrise Sunset’ and should be a highly entertaining show for all the family. The leading lady role of Golde is played by Rose Macleanin the production. Rose is particularly delighted to be playing this role as she remembers going to see the film with her father when it was first released. At the beginning of the Second World War Rose’s father was forced to flee his homeland of Poland, leaving behind family and friends to start a new life in the UK. As Golde, she witnesses the breakup of family life resulting from the pogrom, the Russian eviction of Jews from their homeland. Rose is reminded of this when her stage daughter Hodel sings the song ‘Far From The Home I Love’. This year the company are once again supporting the Alzheimer’s society, and profits will be donated to AFA San Fulgencio and other local charities. Show dates are Wednesday June 1stto Saturday June 4that the Cardenal Belluga Theatre in San Fulgencio, all performances start at 7.30pm with

vote since the beginning of the year. And thanks to the online registration system, more than 180,000 expats worldwide have so far completed their registration to vote, nearly double the number for last year’s General Election, which was itself a record figure. Meanwhile, low-cost carrier Ryanair has thrown its weight behind the stay-in-Europe campaign, launching a ‘Fly Home to Vote Remain’ €19.99 ticket – including taxes – between 22nd June 22 and Thursday 23rd June. The move is aimed at encouraging the 1.2 million British nationals living within the EU to fly back to Britain to vote in the so-called Brexit referendum on 23rd June, but the cheap flight offer is open to all nationalities. Ryanair has supported the UK remaining in Europe, saying membership creates jobs and boosts economic growth. The company says that the EU’s open-skies policy has transformed the tourism sector, while the free movement of goods and services has made Britain one of the most competitive economies in Europe.

An outbreak of an enterovirus that can cause severe illness has already affected 48 children in Catalonia, the regional health department there has confirmed. Of these, 21 were hospitalised after suffering a form of encephalitis, which causes inflammation of the brain stem and cerebellum. Health authorities said most of the children are recovering well, although two remain in a serious condition. Similar outbreaks have been reported in Bulgaria, the United States and several Asian countries, but this is the first time Spain has experienced so many cases at the same time. Enteroviruses are common at this time of the year and normally produce mild symptoms similar to those of the common cold or flu. However, preliminary lab results for this particular outbreak suggest the presence of a more aggressive subtype affecting the central nervous system. Two days after issuing an alert, Catalan health authorities admitted that 21 children had been treated at regional hospitals for related symptoms. There is no known vaccine or prescription drug against the microorganism. The first severe case of enterovirus was reported in February, when a threeyear-old child suffered a myelitis – an inflammation of the spinal cord – that has left her quadraplegic. But doctors said that she was infected by a different, even more virulent enterovirus called EV-D68, which can cause paralysis similar to poliomyelitis.

Experts have ruled out the presence of EV-D68 in all 48 cases reported since April 13, when the first case arrived at the emergency room of Vall d’Hebron Hospital in Barcelona. That child, who went into cardiac arrest, remains in hospital with “serious effects,” according to Carles Rodrigo, head of pediatrics at the hospital. Most of the other cases were reported in May. Another child in the Catalan province of Tarragona has died with similar symptoms to those produced by enteroviruses, but health authorities have not included him in the present outbreak. “Although clinically he would be part of the group, we have been unable to detect the enterovirus in his samples. It is a probable case, but we are not certain,” said Josep María Argimon, deputy director of the Catalan health services, CatSalut. Faced with an avalanche of concerned parents, doctors are underscoring that most cases of enterovirus infection are benign. “The vast majority recover well,” said Rodrigo, noting that if the child has trouble breathing, swallowing or talking, along with a fever, parents should go see the doctor. Experts say it is difficult to foresee what will happen next. “It’s behaving differently from what we usually see, and it is hard to know what to expect. We cannot predict how many more cases will emerge in future,” said Rodrigo.

Two planes have had to land in France en route to the Iberian peninsula after they contacted ground staff to report ‘in-air emergencies’. A Ryanair flight, which was on its way from Liverpool to Alicante and a Germanwings flight from Dusseldorf to Faro were both redirected after they raised the alert. The two flights both landed at Bordeaux, in France, for emergency crew to board the aircraft

and dela with the emergency. Later reports confirmed that the emergencies were not terrorist-related. On the Ryanair flight a customer had fallen ill and needed medical assistance and an elderly Germanwings passenger also suffered from heart problems and needed immediate medical attention. The Ryanair flight departed to Alicante shortly after the incident had been successfully dealt with.

Illegal hawking Councillor Hita Riera of the PP announced a motion that the government team end the illegal hawking that takes place in Torrevieja. She states that; ‘Illegal hawking is a problem that the city faces everyday and it is harmful to consumers and traders who pay their taxes and comply with regulations.’ The PP councillor said; ‘it should be amongst the objectives of the town hall to educate citizens not to buy these products.’ She pointed out that there are no guarantees of the safety of the products they sell, they present unfair competition to legal sellers and they occupy public roads.’

Minor crashes mother’s car The car was driven by a 16 year old on Saturday afternoon the 21st May. It crashed into a lamppost and was abandoned on its side in the Avenida de Alfred Nobel in Torrevieja near the Torre del Moro, next to a service station. The minor suffered slight injuries to his hand. Several of the driver’s friends were also in the vehicle but none were hurt. The minor lost control of the car on a bend in the avenue heading towards the Los Locos beach. The local police were in immediate attendance and a possible crime against road safety is being investigated.

Champion rowers from Torrevieja Alicante port staged at the weekend a celebration of the 12th Spanish ‘Llaut’ championship. The Llaut is a traditional boat and there were 750 rowers and 82 clubs taking part in the competition. Torrevieja was well represented and Belén García Girona and her team were announced as the Absolute Champions of Spain. They also received the trophy as best club at the end of the competition. The events on Sunday began at 8.30 am with the semi finals being disputed due to the very close results with boats finishing within tenths of a second of each other. It was an emotional day for all those concerned with the teams being very closely matched and the championship vigorously contended. Suzanne O’Connell

Guardamar saves drinking water Water company Hidraqua and the City of Guardamar del Segura have saved a hundred million litres of drinking water, thanks to a new irrigation system. This system will allow the re-use of reclaimed surplus water from the purification system on the slopes of the Castle. The water will be used to irrigate the surrounding pine forests of the town’s castle. The project involved adapting a pump installation that was built by the Hydrographic Confederation of Segura, ensuring that the water reaches the top of the slopes. Once there, it is distributed through droppers and hydrants to the different areas that require it. Jose Luis Saez, Mayor of the municipality, said: “This system does a double duty because it allows on the one hand to save drinking water that may be destined for human consumption and also, the use of reclaimed water that has been refined and subjected to specific treatments that allow reuse. This

provides nutrients and minerals to the soil, improving its quality.” Moreover, proper watering of the pine forest makes it more resistant to pests and parasites that can threaten the health of the trees. Juan Jose Alonso, Hidraqua manager, concluded: “The responsible use of water is an obligation of us all, therefore Hidraqua will continue working in Guardamar to achieve a model of fully sustainable management, allowing us to meet our needs without compromising the resources of future generations.” Mireille Toddington

Two police officers injured Two police officers were injured in a crash in Torrevieja after a spectacular chase. The accident happened at the junction of the streets Caballero de Rodas and María Parodi and the chase started when the officers recognised a driver who was wanted for robbery. The accident occurred at about four in the afternoon on Sunday 22nd May. The officers were trying to apprehend the suspect who fled when he was asked to identify himself in the area of the Avenida de las Cortes Valencianas. The chased vehicle had burst a tyre and the driver escaped on foot.

Both vehicles had extensive damage. Later the driver of the car was caught and has been detained. As a result of the accident one of the police officers had neck injuries and another escaped with bruises according to the first information being reported. The police officers were transferred to Torrevieja hospital for checks. After the crash one of the cars was lodged in a lamp post and the other in the side of a building. Both left an impact in the pavement and damage to properties. Suzanne O’Connell

Spain’s public debt outweighs output For the first time since 1909, Spain’s public debt has surpassed 100 percent of its economic output or GDP. Figures released by the Bank of Spain recently show that the state now owes more money than the wealth generated by the Spanish economy, which is growing but not at a fast enough clip to cover its payment commitments. First-quarter data show that public administrations have accumulated debt worth €1.095 trillion, up from €1.070

trillion by the end of December last year. While official GDP figures for the January-to-March period have not been released yet, preliminary numbers show that output grew 0.8 percent from the last quarter of 2015. For the debt-to-GDP ratio to be lower than 100 percent, economic growth should have been 2.2 percent instead. This low growth estimate evidences that public debt is now in excess of 100 percent of GDP.

Another reason for this high ratio is the fact that public debt rose significantly in February and March. In just 31 days, another €14 billion were added. This situation is not exclusive to Spain. Italy’s debt-to-GDP ratio is close to 130 percent. But Spain had not experienced it for over a century. A study by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) shows that the highest ratio experienced by Spain was 160 percent in the 1880s.

Carmen Morate has her say Councillor Carmen Morate has issued her statement over how she feels about politics in Torrevieja. This is a translation from her account issued in Spanish. “In a democracy it is normal that the political opposition develop an effective and constructive way to manage their relationship with the citizens of the town with the aim of convincing the electorate that their suggestions and proposals are so good that they deserve to be elected next time round. However, in Torrevieja, 11 of the 13 council members do the opposite. They spend their time searching and rummaging through papers and

proposals. We have attended countless meetings and participated in many events. What we will not do is make false promises.” “A few months ago I met with some of the British community about the park at La Siesta. I commented that there was no immediate solution to this and I asked if they thought that we were responsible for the current situation. They chorused ‘yes’.” “The PP had not explained to them that the students who were in employment workshops and the materials on order were all without a contract. It was impossible for the park to be finished in four

documents and swarm between the different departments to find every misplaced comma, wrongly used word, the smallest failure in order to take it completely out of context and use it in the media.” “These tactics have no influence on the day-today running of this delicate administration except to cause amazement and to waste time as we are forced to use time and energy in denying and answering every accusation. I’m now going to speak about the European residents in Torrevieja. Our opposition is manipulating and influencing this group of residents. Some councillors are bent on discrediting my colleague Carlos González (director OARI)”. “Neither Carlos nor I have ever ignored the requests from foreigners whether Europeans or from elsewhere. We have listened to complaints and

months. What a coincidence! Just in time for the municipal elections.” “My colleague, Councillor Ferrández has shown all the documents and will produce them again if necessary. There is no project or money in reserve to support the park. We will not bend the rules and we stand by our commitment to enforcing the law to the letter.” “We would also like to make it clear that the OARI (office for international residents) has never closed but has just moved. Neither did we forget to celebrate Europe Day and this was not a political act. We welcome having a party in opposition but wish they would refrain from using every means possible, including searching on private Facebook accounts, to discredit us and what we are trying to do for Torrevieja.” Suzanne O’Connell

Summer tourism boom to bring misery

Spain accused of paying ransom

Millions of holidaymakers are expected to hit Spain this summer as a safer alternative to terror hotspots like Egypt, Tunisia and Turkey - which have been plagued by terror attacks in recent years. And although most tourists will head to its beaches and famous Costa’s, environmentalists have warned that Spanish cities could also become severely overcrowded, and that their infrastructure may be unable to cope with the ‘crush’. This could result in gridlocked traffic and dirty water as Spain's summer resorts are already nearly booked out. Residents in Orihuela Costa already suffer from water shortages, overworked pumping stations and no parking every year when a surge of holidaymakers strains the ancient systems, so a pumper year could spell more misery than usual. One resident said: “Every summer the local pumping station smells awful

as it tries to cope with the extra sewage, which is not conducive to sitting in your garden or having a BBQ. Very often the water runs out completely and you can’t shower wash the dishes. Having a day at the beach is virtually impossible, unless you get there at 8am to park, especially now the cycles lanes have wiped out a lot of parking at La Zenia and Cabo Roig. I’m dreading this summer!” The popular Spanish Islands also suffer due to poor infrastructure. “This will be a crazy year,” said Gerard Hau, a spokesman for the Grup Balear d’Ornitologia Defensa de la Naturalesa (GOB) in the Balearic Islands. “The infrastructure will not cope. Mallorca is booked out. We will have serious problems this summer. People come here to enjoy life, but they are stressed because they can’t get a seat on the buses – there aren’t enough buses.”

It has emerged that Spain paid a 10 million euro ransom for the liberation of the journalists kidnapped in Syria. The report in the Turkish press says the kidnappers had demanded 25 million dollars. The Spanish Government said they were not aware the payment. However, it is reported that Spain paid the lower amount in the hope that the kidnappers would release the journalists Antonio Pampliega, José Manuel López and Ángel Sastre, who had been kidnapped in Syria by the Al-Nusra Front, which is linked to Al Qaeda. According to the newspaper Yeni Safek, close to the current Islamic Government in Turkey, the Spanish Cabinet paid 3.7 million dollars (3.25 million euros) for each of the three reporters, an amount collaborated by other security forces involved in the crisis in Syria. The Spanish Secret Service CNI, has refused to comment on the information. When questioned the Acting Foreign Affairs Minister, José Manuel García Margallo, told La Habana, “I have no awareness that has been the case” and added sarcastically “the ministry would have to sell its headquarters to make a payment of that type”.

Wanted Brit found in Spanish jail A British conman who absconded to Spain has been located in a Spanish jail after being arrested in Alicante. Norman Fowler, 38, from Colchester, failed to show at Norwich Crown Court two years ago after being handed a three-month sentence for stealing camera equipment worth £10,000 and a further six months for absconding. He is also wanted in connection with a £21,000 fraud operation and other alleged scams using

websites Gumtree and eBay. In a twist of events, Essex police, who issued an alert and warrant for Fowler´s arrest, have been informed that he is currently being held in custody on remand in Alicante over gun licensing matters. Discussions are now taking place to bring him back to the UK to serve his sentences and face trial for other alleged offences. Fowler was arrested for fraud and car crime charges before admitting a further

six offences at Chelmsford Crown Court in 2012. He asked for 25 additional offences to be taken into consideration, and was ordered to carry out 300 hours community service. He had taken £30,000 for goods he sold online but never delivered, including an Audi A4 and Rolex watch. After he absconded to Alicante, he was charged and convicted of theft in absentia in 2014, where he was sentenced to nine months in prison.

Do you know what the eighth wonder of the world is? A

ccording to Einstein it’s compounding, and specifically compound interest.

According to some recent research, it turns out that most of us seriously underestimate how much compound interest can grow our wealth. This matters because it leads investors and savers to make poor decisions. In particular, there are two routine mistakes made by those who ignore the power of compound interest.

Mistake one: ‘Saving or investing just isn't for me’ We fail to grasp that even small amounts invested early in life can grow into large amounts later, we think of small savings habits as more trouble than they're worth. But they are far from trouble; saving small can result in a big money pot later. If you save £20 a month over a period of 50 years with a 4 per cent return, you end up with over £38,000 – and, crucially, more than £26,000 of that would be pure interest, with only £12,000 coming from the contributions you make.

Mistake two: Property Time and time again people talk about property being a 'great investment.’ It’s easy to see why. We stop hearing about property prices, and markets are only in the when they crash.

never rising stock news

There are many reasons to be cautious of property. Property is difficult and expensive to buy and sell – especially if you live in it. Contrast that with investing, whether you do-it-yourself or have a manager. Stocks, bonds and cash allow you to diversify, and to buy and sell quickly and cheaply; you can spread your money around the world, in different companies and sectors. Going for growth: A mediumrisk investment portfolio has outperformed property over the long-term. If you are looking for a better way to grow your savings then we have a number of low risk investment products that we deal with from major UK Assurance Companies.

WEEKLY EURO UPDATE The European single currency had a torrid week having traded close to $1.14 against the US dollar at one point, only to drop back down below recent support levels of $1.12. The move lower was in fact more to do with changing investor sentiment back in favour of a stronger US dollar, rather than any compelling negative changes to the Eurozone economic wellbeing. Europe’s international trade in goods did report a surplus of €28.6billion for March 2016, with exports to the rest of the world totalling €177billion, down 3% on the same month a year ago. However, imports fell by a larger amount – down 8% – meaning the surplus was healthy. There remains a lack of inflation within the Eurozone. Annual inflation dropped back into negative territory during April at -0.2, down from zero seen in March 2016. The ECB measures to help spark an uplift in inflationary pressures are yet to materialise. ECB stimulus measures will no doubt continue unabated. As stated the major catalyst for the decline in the Euro came not from the EU but from a shift in American interest rate expectations. Whilst Europe’s inflation was heading lower, the United States equivalent was heading higher. Consumer price inflation rose from 0.1% to 0.4% thanks to a surge in oil

prices. This news was swiftly followed by the release of the FOMC minutes which painted a far more hawkish picture on prospective American interest rate hike sentiment. The minutes hinted that the US Federal Reserve’s monetary policy committee gave further credence to the possibility of a rate hike next month, with the word “June” mentioned no fewer than six times. The Euro fared even worse against sterling with the pound briefly regaining levels back above €1.30, having started the week not far from €1.2670. On Wednesday it was revealed that the UK unemployment rate remained steady at 5.1% – 44,000 more jobs were added between January and March. Whilst this number is down on previous months, it was a rather surprising outcome bearing in mind businesses had been rather cautious, even reluctant, to hire whilst the backdrop of the UK’s EU referendum outcome was so uncertain. Opinion polls can hold strong influence over currency direction, so this week’s Evening Standard UK EU referendum poll result showing 55% of respondents wanting to Remain in the EU and 37% preferring to Leave, helped boost the British pound to levels last seen back in March 2016.

A beautiful place to volunteer

I

f you’re looking for idyllic spots in which to give something back to your local community then the La Mata and Torrevieja natural park has to be one of those at the top of the list. This is where the ‘Asociación de las Rutas y Caminos de la Sal’ have their base and work to maintain the beautiful, natural lagoons and their surroundings. This voluntary organisation has been

in existence since 2002 and since then volunteers have patrolled and offered their help to the two employed members of staff at the Information Centre situated close to the exit on the N332. Not only are they volunteering in a beautiful setting but their efforts are making a direct impact on a local resource that is helping educate children about nature. The President of the association is Stephen Boll and through the regular Saturday minuted meetings, the group

organises its patrol rotas and the members update each other on the progress of the different activities they are currently engaged in.

Nesting boxes One of the most recent developments has been the renovation of a number of nesting boxes that were already placed in trees around the park. ‘I don’t think they’d been touched for years,’ explains

Stephen. ‘We took them down and we’re cleaning and tidying them up ready to return them.’ This includes making them inaccessible to rats by reducing the size of the entrance. The idea is that the nesting boxes might encourage the presence of the Great Tit which is one of the few birds that will eat the processionary caterpillar. With their large beak they can devour the pest without its irritating hairs causing them difficulties. Another predator of the caterpillar is the hoopoe

bird, but this must beat the caterpillars against an object before eating them and therefore is not as good a solution. ‘We are trialling this,’ says Stephen, ‘as a potential way of reducing the number of caterpillars. We are going to replace the nesting boxes and then monitor which ones are being used most and where. Each one has a number on the bottom.’ It sounds like a natural solution to the increasing numbers of caterpillars in the region. However, there are also concerns that drawing more Great Tits to the area could have other repercussions as it’s not just the processionary caterpillar they’ll be eating. ‘Insecticides aren’t the answer,’ says Stephen. ‘When those are sprayed they kill everything in their path, the pests and the insects you want to preserve too.’ However, everyone is keen that the number of harmful caterpillars are reduced. ‘They’re very dangerous for dogs,’ explains Stephen. ‘Being dogs, they are inquisitive and are vulnerable to the hairs of the caterpillar which cause an allergic reaction that can lead to them being unable to breathe.’

shifts during the week for those who can volunteer more time. They patrol the park not to admonish people but to gently remind them about the rules. They have their volunteer badges and report back to the centre about any incidents. ‘There are not enough paid staff here for them to do everything they would like to,’ says Stephen. ‘We are very much needed and they appreciate what we do.’ The volunteers also appreciate the work that the staff at the centre are involved in and recognise the value it brings, particularly in terms of educating children and adults about nature. Groups of children from local primary schools regularly visit the centre to find out more about the plants and wildlife that exist there.

A pleasure to help out

Habaneras

For the volunteers preserving and improving the park is a passion and something that they benefit from as much as they give. ‘We love living in Spain,’ says one volunteer, ‘and this is one way in which we can give something back for the pleasure we get.’ They are a social group as well and arrange trips out at different times of the year. There is a regular meeting on a Saturday morning and there are also

One example of this is a collaborative event with CEIP Cuba. On the 21st May pupils and teachers from Cuba Primary School in Torrevieja performed the song ‘The beautiful Laguna’ or ‘Laguna Bella’ in front of the information centre at 12.00 pm. The concert took place in its natural setting, outdoors and without chairs. The project included several stages with the children receiving a talk and

having opportunity for a guide to take them round the park and see the wildlife and plants for themselves. Afterwards the children prepared the habanera which was written especially for the Laguna in Torrevieja.

Please volunteer The views of the lagunas certainly lend themselves to both poetry and song. If you want to look at some stunning photos of the lakes and local countryside you can on the Facebook page: Lagunas de Torrevieja y La Mata. Voluntarios. The existing volunteers may enjoy the work that they do but there aren’t quite enough of them. The association are hoping that they can attract some more people to boost their numbers. Because they try and have a presence in the park throughout the week, they need enough people to fill the rota and to be able to go out in twos as most of them prefer. It is a beautiful backdrop and it’s on our doorstep. If you think you might be able to join this friendly and supportive group you should email lamatavols@gmail.com They will be delighted to hear from you. Suzanne O’Connell

Now that it is almost June it is time to sit back and relax and enjoy the fruits of your labour! Unless, of course, you want to carry on planting which is always possible. If you haven’t already done so you need to feed your plants and borders as the heat appears to definitely be turned on now!

Perennials have been planted and also annuals and biennials. Hardy annual seeds look fabulous in beds and these can be done now. Don’t forget to weed, feed and mow the lawn, this needs to be kept on top of now that the hot weather is here. I don’t know about you, but I have noticed all the beautiful roses out and about in all their glory. This appears to be their month of showing off in all their splendour. There are so many different varieties, I could spend the rest of the year just talking about them. Don’t forget, go to your local nurseries and see what they have on offer. If you’re not sure about growing them from seed, they often have them with blooms on, so you can choose the ones you like. Don’t be afraid to ask them for advice on care for that particular variety that you have chosen, as care can differ from species to species.

Fuchsia Marinka

Fuchsias

Fuchsias originate from Central and South America, the majority of species anyway, but are found further north and right down to Tierra del Fuego! There are roughly 110 recognised species of Fuchsia, mainly being shrubs that range from 8 inches to 13 feet tall, however there is one species in New Zealand, which is a tree and grows up to 49 feet tall and this is called the Kotukutuku (Fuchsia excorticata). They come in a vast array of colours and differing forms to suit almost any situation. They can be grown as a regular plant, put in hanging baskets, grown as a hedge or put into borders with other plants around them, such as bedding plants, shrubs and herbaceous perennials. They have varieties of shape in leaf and flower as well as many differing colours and are truly versatile. When choosing a plant you want to look for an even symmetrical shape with green leaves coming from green stems. You don’t want the stems to be brown and woody. Check the root system by turning it upside down in the pot and tapping the sides until the plant comes out, don’t force it. There should be several shoots from the lower part of the main stem.

Fuchsia Royal Velvet

Do not get Fuchsia plants that have uneven growth, any sign of pests such as aphids, white fly or rust, dried out soil and a pot that is too small. It should be roughly 35% pot and 65% visible plant. The best fuchsia for informal hedges or as a garden shrub is Fuchsia magellanica ‘Riccartoni’, possibly because of its hardiness. If you want it as a garden plant, purely and simply, then the cultivar ‘Mrs Popple’ is a popular one. There are so many varieties, as I have already pointed out, so difficult to recommend any particular ones to you, however there are some that are suited to particular environments rather than others. So here goes: If you want to keep them in pots or small containers then the Fuchsia Heidi Ann (with Cerise/lilac flowers) and the Fuchsia Royal Velvet (with red/purple flowers) are great for this, as they are not only compact but also bushy. For hanging baskets, Fuchsia Marinka (with red flowers) and Fuchsia Pink Galore are easy to grow and have beautiful colours, which show when massed in a basket. Fuchsia Mrs Popple, apart from being good as simply a garden plant mentioned before, is good for hedges as well as bedding and comes with red, purple and violet flowers. Marc Vijverberg

Gas bottle prices drop again Bottled butane gas has gone down to its lowest price since 2010, sitting at just €11.85. Householders with a delivery contract from their supplier may have to pay slightly more, but generally this is a very slight increase and they, too, will make huge savings. The price has gone down by 4.9 percent, and will be maintained until at least 19th July, but will undoubtedly rise again at the end of summer. Just 14 months ago, the same gas bottle – still used by around eight million households in Spain – cost €17.50, which is 32 percent more. And until this month, it was €12.46, which was still lower than the 2012 figure of €15.06 – a price that steadily rose until a year ago. Prices are based upon the cost of the raw

material, transport, exchange rates and trading fees, and governments are then able to adjust the cost by a maximum of 5 percent above or below. Consumers' union OCU says the price fall is 'excellent' news', since many householders have to use bottled butane gas as they have ‘no other alternative’ for domestic fuel. Mains gas is still very much in its infancy in Spain, only available in built-up areas, mostly major cities, meaning millions of homes still use gas bottles for heating and cooking. According to Ministry of Industry sources, Spain's gas account still has a surplus even with the price fall, meaning butane bottles may become even cheaper still over the next few months. These prices only affect the orange 12.5-kilo bottles – the lighter-weight, blue or silver ninekilo bottles do not depend upon State fluctuations and distributors are allowed to set whatever price they wish. Customers should also bear in mind that some retailers can be slower to implement the price changes and may still stock at the previous prices – so it is worth shopping around the local area.

Orange thieves caught in San Miguel

motorway towards Alicante. The vehicles were carrying such a large quantity of improperly loaded oranges that they posed a danger to other road users. When the officers identified the four occupants of the vehicles, they found that the men could not prove that they had legally acquired these oranges and so the cargo was confiscated. After making some checks, the officers found that the oranges had been stolen from a farm in a rural area of San Miguel called Lo Lorente, and the four men were arrested. The oranges, which were found to weigh a tonne and a half, have been returned to their owner.

The Guardia Civil has arrested four Spanish men aged between 18 and 32 years old on suspicion of stealing oranges in San Miguel de Salinas. The suspects were stopped on the motorway with more than a tonne of fruit crammed into two cars. The arrests were made last week when a patrol intercepted two vehicles travelling on the A-7

Delhi is said to be one of the oldest existing cities in the world, along with Jerusalem and Varanasi. Legend estimates it to be over 5,000 years old.

Delhi's climate is, sad to say, infamously bad, combining the scorching aridity of Rajasthan's deserts with the frigid cold of the Himalayas. From April to June, temperatures are scorchingly hot (over 40°C is common) and, with every airconditioner running at full blast, the city's creaking power and water infrastructure is strained to the breaking point and beyond.

There will be four stages altogether which includes a main stage, techno stage, revival stage and Remembermania. This is one more stage than last year. The names secured for the event are gradually coming in with Michael Calfan billed as performing on the main stage and Paul Ritch, having already been announced. The line up continues to be added to and

those following the event on Facebook will receive regular updates. It’s the fourth year running that Torrevieja has hosted the event which began in 2007 and wasn’t always held in Torrevieja. In 2011 it took place in Los Alcázares and lasted for two days. Earlier in the year it looked a little uncertain whether it would be taking place at all due to financial disagreements about the 2015 event between the organisers and the town hall. Agreement was reached and the

tickets are now being sold at a basic ticket price of €17 but you can buy a Black VIP ticket for €60. This entitles you access to an open bar and VIP bar.

Removal of name plaques in the town As there have been changes of government in some of the major town and cities in Spain, so this has represented an opportunity to purge the streets of some of the names associated with law breaking and corruption in the past. This has been widely documented in Madrid and Barcelona and now Torrevieja is also to remove some of the plaques on public buildings that honour individuals who have now been discredited. Twenty-three commemorative plaques are due to be removed from public buildings and streets in Torrevieja. The plaques all contain the names of people who

have held public positions and have since been convicted in the courts of corruption, crimes against public finances and social security or for crimes against the administration and property located in the town. The requirement to do this was issued to the mayor of Torrevieja, José Manuel Dolón in March from the Valencian government. The buildings and facilities affected include The sports centre, the Park of Nations, Lo Albentosa park, the Palacio del Música and the Virgen del Carmen cultural centre. The mayor agrees with the directive of the Valencian government. ‘The various

criminal cases and misuse of public resources and political power has had a negative impact on Valencia and has tainted the image of our people.’ The Infanta Cristina Sports Centre has already had its name changed prior to the Valencian ruling. ‘We urgently need to clear the name of Valencia,’ added the mayor. ‘We must be committed to the values of honesty and transparency and get rid of the corrupt practices that have existed until now and have done so much damage to the reputation of the Valencian people.’ Suzanne O’Connell

The hen is mightier than the sword...

M

y father was a conundrum of contradictions. He liked nothing better than an egg, but hated nothing more than a hen. Himself and the hen had history, but which came first, the chicken or the egg – or how the egg got to his eggcup, never seemed to exercise his thoughts. The hens could not be fenced out of the garden any time that Daddy planted a few spuds and every seed potato would be extracted from the ridge and devoured by hungry hens. He begrudged any bit of vittles that the fowl were fed and swore that ‘if a hen lived to be a hundred, she would still die in debt.’ As far as this henhater was concerned, the only desirable place for a hen was in the black pot on the Stanley 9 Range in our kitchen. John C was wrong about a laying hen dying in debt. The hen is one of the most useful creatures benefiting mankind. It is only in recent years that scientists and nutritionists have discovered all the goodness contained in one little hen-egg. In fact, the egg is

the closest thing you can find to the perfect meal. The humble egg has just about everything your

body needs; and your mind too by all accounts, as choline is good for the brain, as well as improving the eyes. A decade ago some bored genius in a white coat came to the conclusion that eggs were nothing but oval balls of cholesterol in a shell. There was a health campaign launched to cure us

of our foul (fowl?) habit. Many people stopped having their egg for breakfast, and even today there are those who are opposed to eating eggs, due to that false belief. During the 1950’s, the British Egg Marketing Board, ran a very successful slogan, ‘Go to work on an egg’. The message was that having an egg for breakfast was the best way to start the working day. This slogan was so much closer to the truth than the advertisers ever realised. But can you believe it that when they tried to rebroadcast the adverts in 2007, The British Broadcasting Advertising Clearance Centre rejected the advertisement on the basis that it did not suggest a varied diet! The egg is the perfect food no matter how you take it. It is easily digestible and when a patient is recovering from surgery or illness, very often the first food they can face is scrambled egg on toast. There is the perfect balance of nutrients, calcium, magnesium, potassium and iron. Also contained in the egg are the choline we mentioned above and biotin, which is important for energy and stress reduction. The

amount of fat is in perfect proportion – and contrary to those scares of fifteen years ago, actually reduces the risk of heart disease. Furthermore, eating eggs will actually help in weight reduction as well. Convinced yet?! If you can swallow a raw egg every morning, that is brilliant and probably the most value. I could do it in my teens – but I wouldn’t chance it on a carpet now. I’m afraid the picture of the man at the threshing many years ago, who decided to sample one from the nest of eggs uncovered and the one he chose was … a bit off, like! Free range eggs are quite rightly prized above factory farming and there is good reason for this. The only thing my father loved more than the hen-egg was a duck-egg. Not only that, but he liked the layers as well. Unlike the hens, the duck, with her webbed feet, never rubbished his garden. Instead, the ducks used their feet as paddles to head for little trips down the river, until the fox picked them off one by one. None of them lived long enough to make the pot or the oven. I wrote a column on the danger of salt a few years ago and I told you it

was killing us. For once in ten years, I could have been wrong. The experts have changed their collective mind again. Anyway, I believed my own press to the extent that I gave up sowing salt all over everything I ate. The one exception is the boiled egg. A boiled egg without a pinch of salt would be like Westmeath hurlers without ‘Jogger’ Doyle the Second. So whether you like your egg boiled, fried, scrambled, poached, omeletted, or raw – have it whatever way you fancy, (I know a man who will only eat a brown egg!) but going to work on an egg is the best start to the day. And there’s more: The egg has external benefits too. The lovely ladies of bygone ages used it as a face mask and for shiny hair. Long before prittstick was invented, we used the white of the egg to stick things. Let’s hear it for the hen then...

You may not have all the answers – but you probably won’t be asked all the questions either.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Cleaning up the seabed

Dear Editor Happyanimalesspanienfincasanmigueldesalinas like to thank Willy and Carla and their team at Bar Restaurant Anders in San Miguel, for raising money for the animals, thanks to Mona Nowak Fassbende, the founder of Happyanimalesspanien, for selling the raffle tickets.

For more info visit www.happyanimalesspanien.com or our become a member of our FB group fincasanmigueldesalinas or email nicosolm@hotmail.com. Hope you can help us. Kind regards Sol

Dear Editor The "Almoradi Monday Club" meet every FIRST and THIRD MONDAY of the month at 4PM in "The Victoria Tea Rooms" that is situated on the main road just off the big church square in Almoradi. The idea of this modern and progressive club is so that people who speak ENGLISH and live in Almoradi or the surrounding area can meet one

another on a regular but informal basis to talk together and enjoy life in this Spanish community. The club activities will include social events, club lunches and evening meals in and around the local area, guest speakers at meetings and entertainment when possible. We will also try to associate ourselves with other local clubs that hold other events including coach trips and anything that may be of interest to members. If you are interested and would like to have a wider circle of friends then come along to one of our meetings. For more information contact davedanie@gmail.com The Almoradi Monday Club is an ENGLISH speaking club and is open to people of every nationality living in or just visiting Spain. Thank you to all the newspapers that have helped in promoting this new club in Almoradi. Best regards, David Daniel Almoradi Monday Club.

Dear Editor Shame on La Marina, Shame on San Fulgencio and Elche Councils, some Blue Flag Beach? Uncleaned rubbish everywhere. Dogs seem to have the run of the Beach peeing and crapping

everywhere and the owners not a bag between them, just kick sand over the offensive lumps. But as no Life Guards, No Sun Beds No nothing they can roam as they like, I've been on the Beach three times this week and from 09.00 - 11 over a Dozen people with Dogs. No wonder people are going 10 mins down the road to Guardamar where all is clean and tidy. Eddie Longhurst

Dear Editor We will take you on a journey, so why not climb aboard. Our driver shows you how to travel never getting bored. You'll need imagination, for places we will go. But entertaining you each trip, is what we surly know. If you want some fun and laughter, we'll cheer you on the way you'll be glad you joined us, and won't forget the day. Our group is set for action, get ready now to smile. Our Deadwood Stage will take you, with humour we'll beguile. Learn more about us by ringing :- 966 774 127.

■ SUZANNE O’CONNELL suzanne@costablancapeople.com

A ‘cleaning up the seabed’ campaign has been taking place this week. The councillor for beaches in Torrevieja, Javier Manzanares, was accompanied on Saturday morning by the firm Recreativos Acuáticos Horadada to Náufragos beach. The clean up took place very early in the morning in order not to disturb bathers and the sea bed close to the beach was trawled for any objects or other waste that needed removing. The clean up was carried out by four divers and they filled two skips with a variety of objects including a ship’s engine and a supermarket shopping trolley.

DOING IT FOR THE DOGS challenge, really believe in their cause.” The ride took place on Saturday 30th April and the team were joined by Owen Desmond from Shenanigans Bar and Roy Selway a client of Ibex. They set off just after 9am from outside the Ibex office in Quesada stopping at Alicante, Villajoyosa and eventually

The distance and hill training together with the aching limbs didn’t stop Carol Gray and Michele Pearman from Ibex Insurance who were determined to cycle from Quesada to Benidorm in aid of S.A.T. Animal Rescue.

The girls have said, “We were thrilled to be cycling in aid of S.A.T. This was a tough challenge for us as neither of us had been on a push bike for years. The girls and their partners Paul Harvey and David Blinston who had also been nominated to take the

Benidorm just before 3pm. Just in time before the storm started. The team had one other member who actually rode the same challenge two weeks before on 9th April. Richard Cavender of Bluemoon Solutions completed the challenge in 3 hours 23 minutes, and has raised in excess of €1,000 individually. A fantastic achievement! To date the team have raised just over €2,500 and with money still coming in they hope to hit their €3,000 target. Carol told the Costa Blanca People, “We would like to thank our sponsors and everyone else

who has donated and supported us on this challenge. If anyone wishes to donate they can still do so via Paypal donations@satanimalrescue.co m or by bank transfer : Sociedad

Protectora para Animales de Torrevieja – ES33 0019 0167 32 4010007810, BIC – DEUTESBB or by popping into the Ibex office in Quesada.•” You can still check out the challenge on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Qu esada-to-Benidorm-CharityBike-Ride-530419143793771/

The Truth about Alcohol – BBC1 – 10.00 pm A&E doctor Javid Abdelmoneim is on a mission to find out the truth about alcohol. In January, the government released its new alcohol guidelines. For men, the recommended weekly limit was cut by a third to 14 units per week, equivalent to about seven pints of beer, bringing it in line with the amount recommended for women. So what is behind the change? This is just one question of many that Javid aims to answer as he explores the science of drinking and the new evidence for the health risks of alcohol. Why do some people get drunk quicker than others? What is behind red wine’s healthy reputation? Is a nightcap actually good for your sleep? Does lining your stomach work? And can alcohol actually make you eat more?

Confessions of an Estate Agent! (Part 1of 3) Hi there! In this weeks’ blog, I want to share with you a “behind the scenes” look into the life of an Estate Agent. From personal experience, a lot has changed since the 1980s in the way people buy and sell houses, but boy do we have some funny stories that have happened to us along the way. Last week I told you the perfect way to present your home to a potential buyer, but you also need to bear the same in mind when the Estate Agent is coming to look at your home to list it for sale. They’re the ones after all, that will be guiding you on the best asking price! It can be a very satisfying job fulfilling a dream for a buyer and taking the pressure and stress away from a seller. I’ve had the pleasure of what I like to call, “matching dreams with reality” for many people from all walks of life over the years and can even say that I’ve personally shown property to the former King of Spain, Juan Carlos I’s private dentist! I’ve sold the private homes of other local Estate Agents and grew up with the Quesada family and still to this day happily receive recommendations from them. There is another side to being an Estate Agent in Spain though, and it can ... apart from maintaining our professionalism ... be very funny! I’d like to let you in on some of those times. We’ve seen some really beautiful homes over the years and met some amazing people, seen some average homes and met some lovely people, then we’ve seen some not so nice homes and met some ... let’s just say, interesting people! One day, Lyn and I had a listing appointment with some French homeowners. Upon entering their house, they proceeded to show us proudly around pointing out the many features. The French gentleman of the house,

to the Frenchman and said “we seem to have experienced a little problem” in my best French accent. Lyn then showed the Frenchman the half broken door handle. You know what the man said? “Ahem ... typical Spanish workmanship!” then chuckled as he tried to continue to show us around. I think he was more embarrassed than us! To be continued ... Check out part 2 of my Blog next week. If you’re seriously considering buying or selling, log on to our website www.homes4u.es or visit our office. We’d be delighted to talk with you.

stood back as we went to open the door to the bedroom. As Lyn took hold of the bedroom door handle, she stopped ... frozen ... turned to me ... and without saying a word, held out her hand and gave me the door handle of which had just broken in two. IN HER HAND! I stood there trying to maintain my professionalism, when really tears were streaming down my face from laughter. You know, Lyn is my Mother and I never knew just how strong she was, ha ha! After quickly trying to compose myself and drying my tears of laughter, I turned

PETS IN THE SPIRIT WORLD

osing a pet to spirit is one of the hardest things to contend with especially if you have to make the decision to let them go so they are no longer in immense pain. I know people have felt so guilty as well as heartbroken and yet in their hearts they do know they have done the right thing. No-one in their right mind wants to see an animal suffer, and when they are old, infirm and in great pain, we know that if we keep them here for our own benefit, it would be cruel. I can only write of course about my own experiences when losing my own pets and hope that if you've lost a pet to the spirit world that you take comfort from this article. TOPSY Over time I noticed that Topsy, who was now around fifteen years old, was getting very thin and frail. She was a very old lady, around 15 years old. Never a cat that you could pick up, she remained aloof with everyone apart from me. There was a total connection without words, a sort of telepathy that went on between us that, to be honest, neither my husband nor my daughter could understand. The day came when spirit told me she would be ‘taken over the rainbow bridge’. I rang in to work and told them I wouldn’t be in as my cat would be leaving this mortal world and

luckily they knew me well. When my husband came down in his police uniform I still had my dressing gown on. He asked why I wasn’t ready for work so I told him I wasn’t going in as Topsy was going over to the rainbow bridge. He asked how I knew and I said I just did; although he stood there looking incredulous he knew better than to argue with me so he went off to work. Not long after he had gone, Topsy lay down by the radiator in our living room. She felt cold so I put a soft blanket over her and knelt down beside her. She looked at me and raised her paws at me. I was so upset at losing my friend of fifteen years and asked the angels to help me. All of a sudden I felt a warm breeze around me and a sense of calm. I looked at Topsy who had laid her head down but was still looking at me and I talked to her softly giving her some Reiki as the angels took her gentle soul away. I saw glittery lights like stars over her body, and eventually she was gone. I was absolutely distraught, but thanked the Angels for hearing my prayers, and I knew that she would be absolutely fine in her place of rest. After a while I realised I couldn’t leave her

body by the radiator so I picked her up gently and took her down the garden into my meditation room. I placed her on the carpet in the room and began to meditate. What happened next startled me beyond belief. I heard a pattering on

top of the summer house roof and then distinctly heard a cat mewing. My immediate thought was, “Oh my God, she isn’t dead”, and I leapt up from the chair and went over to her body – which was literally a shell now and of course it was completely still. I ran outside to see if there was another cat that had landed on the roof but there was nothing there. I truly believe that it was Topsy who had come to visit me one last time to let me know she was

happy and pain-free. I have felt her presence many times since she passed over, and I often feel her jumping on the bed even though I can’t see her. JET Four years later, our little dog Jet, who was now deaf and partially blind went off her legs and we had to rush her to the vets. Just before we were ready to leave, I went to switch the light on in the bathroom and the light bulb blew. I knew in that instant that we wouldn’t be bringing Jet back home – it was spirit’s way of preparing me for the inevitable and letting me know that her light in this world would be going out. When we got to the vet it was explained that Jet was extremely poorly. She was 17, an old lady and in a lot of discomfort. The vet suspected cancer but couldn’t be sure unless she operated, but even then they were not sure if Jet would pull through. We had a decision to make. Either we could put her through an operation that she may not survive, or we put her out of her misery and let her go without the discomfort of a serious operation. We decided on the latter.

We stayed with her throughout with me stroking her head. She knew I was there, but it was one of the hardest decisions we had ever made. Back at home there was an empty hole and neither of us knew what to do with ourselves and of course there were constant reminders of Jet: her bed, her dish, toys, etc. But the guilt was the worst – had we made the right decision? This was confirmed later that day. Sitting in the conservatory I looked out of the window at the garden. Instantly I saw the image of Jet’s head as clear as a bell as if it was suspended over the wisteria at the top of the trellis and I saw her as she was when she was younger, as if looking around. I turned to look behind me in case I had seen the reflection of my other dog Libby, although in my heart I knew I hadn’t. Hearing Libby moving around upstairs proved it but of course when I looked back out of the window the vision had gone. However, I knew that without a doubt the angels had given me a vision of my lovely little dog to let me know she had made her final journey to the Rainbow Bridge. Isn’t it wonderful to know that our pets, who are part of our family and a big part of our lives, can still visit us in the same way that our family or friends in spirit can?

Mobile phone users in Spain and Gibraltar will cash in on the EU-wide cuts to roaming charges. The dramatic reductions could save considerable amounts when using mobile phones with UK numbers in Spain, Gibraltar and across Europe. The 75 percent drop in prices will apply to all European mobile phone users until next June when charges will be abolished completely. From Saturday 30th April, mobile phone providers are not able to charge more than €0.05 per minute extra for outgoing calls (down from €0.19) or €0.01 for incoming calls (down from €0.05). The limit for an extra MB of internet data is also capped at €0.05 (down from €0.20). The move to abolish roaming rates in a phased way was approved by the European Union last June.

Neil Diamond Charity Night

Spain is Hollywood hotspot

The Club, Quesada will be hosting a Neil Diamond Tribute, on behalf of Paul Cunningham Nurses, on Saturday 4th June, at 8.00 pm. Tickets will be €12 and to include dinner of chicken in a mushroom sauce or spaghetti bolognese. There will also be a charity raffle. To book, please telephone 966 717 028 The annual Paul Cunningham Fashion Show will take place at The Club on Wednesday 29th June. There will be plenty of stalls, entertainment, tombola and raffle prizes. Tickets will be €2 and to include a free glass of Cava upon arrival. Tickets will be available on 1st June.

Spain is once again becoming a favourite location for foreign television companies, enjoying a run akin to its 1960s heyday when Italian film director Sergio Leone built a mini Hollywood in the deserts of Almeria. The appeal is easy to explain, says Carlos Rosado, president of the Spain Film Commission (SFC): “After part of the fifth series of Game of Thrones was filmed in Seville, HBO wanted to come back, but on one condition: there had to be a tax incentive.” Rosado negotiated the corporate tax reforms with representatives of the Spanish government: “We were the only country without tax breaks.” Rosado managed to change that, though the breaks are less generous than in France and Germany. Since 2015, big foreign production teams have enjoyed a 15 percent tax break on expenses compared to 30 percent in France and 40% in Germany. But Spain makes up for the shortfall, says Rosado: “It’s cheaper, our people are well trained, we have a proud cultural heritage, the climate is better and it’s easy to get around. In the morning you’re in the snow on a mountain and in the afternoon you’re on a tropical beach. It’s a small country full of contrasts.” This is how Doctor Who was freezing in the snowy Sierra Nevada of Granada one week and baking in the arid Spaghetti Western desert in Almeria the next. He didn’t need the tardis, the two locations are just a couple of hours apart. A year later, the Doctor was walking on the moon – in fact, he was on another Canary Island, Lanzarote, where the production team enjoyed a tax break of

30 percent. Whooping their war cries; hundreds of bare-chested Dothraki riders gallop into battle across a desert plain. The scene, from the sixth series of HBO’s Game of Thrones, was shot in the Bardenas Reales nature reserve in Spain’s northeastern Spanish region of Navarra using locals as the fearsome mounted warriors. Meanwhile, on the Canary island of Fuerteventura, a well-known time

conditions have improved over the last half century. Besides the tax breaks, there are other developments that appeal. “Before, they had to bring their own team,” says Rosado. “But now there’s an industry here that’s qualified to help. We don’t just provide extras. We can contribute anything from electricians to actors.” Rosado cites the experience of Fresco Films, the company that produced Game

traveler awakes. After a long and difficult journey, he arrives on his native planet of Gallifrey. This is the fourth episode of the BBC’s Doctor Who that has been filmed in Spain in three years: swapping the broadcaster’s Cardiff studios for the Iberian Peninsula is becoming something of a habit.Penny Dreadful is another series taking advantage of Spain’s new tax incentives. The third season was shot in Sergio Leone’s American west in Almeria, but the

of Thrones and Emerald City, and filmmakers such as Paco Cabezas, who has directed four episodes of Penny Dreadful. “I had access to better resources than in a lot of films,” says Cabezas, who also shot the Nickelodeon comedy series, Lost in the West in the area. “After Almeria, I don’t know what’s left: we’ve had horses, shoot outs with vampires, snakes…” But what does Spain get out of it? Rosado points out that apart from

boosting its tourism brand, “there are also economic benefits. Around 40% of our budget is spent on services, local workers and hotels. In Exodus, they spent €800,000 on petrol. Another factor – it’s good for Spain’s reputation. If HBO are happy, that has a knock-on effect and the local industry grows.” Spain has it all And HBO - and others – are happy because Spain appears to have it all; beaches, volcanoes, deserts and medieval cities. Game of Thrones conjures up the past with the historical walls and cobbled streets of Peñiscola and Girona and, while the remake of Oz, Emerald City was shot in the old quarters of Malaga, Seville and Granada, and the pilot episode of Still-Star-Crossed brought Romeo and Juliet’s Verona to life in Salamanca, Caceres and Plasencia. But Spain has more to offer than fantasy locations. In the miniseries The Night Manager, Madrid and Mallorca provide the backdrop to the action between Spanish actor Antonio de la Torre and bad guy Hugh Laurie. What’s more, a number of the supporting actors have real Spanish accents: “There’s an extra tax incentive for using Spanish talent,” says Rosado. While Rosado is positive about the future and keen to avoid the mistakes of the past, Cabezas says the Spanish government could provide more incentives to attract foreign television and film companies. “They’re not going to find another city like Almeria anywhere,” he says, “but they have to sort out the tax situation. This generates wealth. It’s worth hundreds of advertisements.”

Victor via email asks: Hi Aunty, could you please tell me how to remove AVG from my computer? I'm fed up with it popping up every time I start my laptop or when I go on the internet. I have upgraded to Windows 10 and installed the new Windows Defender and Malwarebytes and I am told this is

enough security. Aunty Says: Those should be enough Victor. You can remove AVG from ‘Control Panel’ ‘programs and features’ (type control panel into the search box) but if you´ve tried this and it still pops up then maybe try AVG’s very own removal tool which you will find by typing AVG REMOVER into Google.

browser you are using to be 100% sure (Chrome or Firefox etc) but I have always accessed the Google Translator via the Google website www.translate.google.co.uk which seems to work OK regardless of which browser you are using. Marco via email asks: Hi Aunty, I am having a seriously annoying problem with my laptop. It shuts down for no apparent reason and I have to restart it again with the on/off button and it will often launch a repair which can take forever to finish.. Can you advise me as although it is a 6 year old Dell I am very attached to it?

Aunty Says: Normally Marco when a laptop consistently switches off this is a sure sign it is overheating and will likely get worse as the summer comes. Blowing any dust & fluff from the air vents underneath and around the sides will help, and also propping the laptop up slightly so cool air can flow underneath will often improve things. If your problem happens randomly then maybe also check you don’t have a loose connection where the power charger is plugged in. Keep me posted. Graham from Newcastle asks: Hello Aunty, I have a Dell laptop with Windows 8 for years and just use it for emails, skype and flights etc. but I am recently getting a message that my trial version of my McAfee security program has expired. I don’t ever recall signing up for a free (or any) trial and I don’t think I should have to pay for something I didn’t ask for but I will if I have to. Should I trust this and pay over the internet or keep ignoring it? And what is the best simple alternative? Aunty Says: I wouldn’t bother Graham. The free trial from MacAfee was likely either preinstalled on your laptop or installed when you did an Adobe Reader or Flash Player update/install. The question of what is the best antivirus/security program is constantly changing but Windows 8 and 10 both come with Windows Defender built in, which coupled with the free Malwarebytes, should give you adequate protection. No amount of security programs will guarantee you 100% protection but as long as you use a bit of common sense and you’re careful as to what websites & links you are accessing you should be fine.

Reasons you’re not losing weight Even if you follow a fitness routine and often choose healthier foods, you may not be seeing the weight come off the way you hope. While there are plenty of other healthy accomplishments to celebrate on this journey, it can be frustrating to not see results when you step on the scale. Sound familiar? Chances are one of these reasons is all that's standing in the way of your weightloss goals…. You don't drink water

Besides keeping you hydrated, drinking water regularly, according to recent studies, can help with weight loss. Filling up on water before a meal helps encourage portion control, and eating foods that contain a lot of water - like fruits and veggies - will fill you up faster, causing you to eat less. A small study even found that drinking cool water can speed up metabolism and discourage cravings for sugary drinks. You think walking is enough A 15-minute stroll is better than nothing, but don't expect to see dramatic weight-loss results. You've got to kick it up and do at least 30 minutes a day of heartpumping exercise. Big calorie and fat burners include running, spin class, interval training, hiking, and circuit training. You overeat healthy foods Nuts, avocados, whole wheat pasta, olive oil, and dark chocolate are all natural and healthy, but they aren't void of calories. You still need to watch how much you eat of the good stuff. For example, avocado offers a ton of health benefits, but an entire fruit is around 350 calories. You only do cardio

be a huge help to your weight-loss goals, but if your partner is not on board, then your relationship may be making you fat. You can't expect to lose weight if your partner constantly suggests ordering takeout, wants to go out for ice cream, or encourages you to sleep in instead of hitting the gym. Communicating that you need support in losing weight is a great first step. For starters, the next time you have dinner out, offer to split a starter or skip dessert. You leave out entire food groups Giving up entire food groups can lead to a nutritional deficiency - not to mention trigger major cravings for whatever food has been cut. Rather than, say, eliminating all carbohydrates, focus on whole grains and remember to monitor portion control. Usually it's the extra servings that add to your waistline, not the pasta itself. You don't sleep enough Making time for your workouts can mean less time for sleep, but it's important to get enough z's if you're trying to lose weight. You need extra energy to keep up with your exercise routine, and skimping on sleep can affect your body's ability to control its appetite: not enough shut-eye increases appetitestimulating hormones. You don't eat enough veggies

If you live on the treadmill but never lift a pound, then you're missing out on one of the most important pieces of the fitness puzzle. Not only does weight training prevent injury by strengthening the joints, but it also builds muscle mass and increases metabolic rate. And thanks to a revved-up metabolism, you'll keep burning calories for hours. You exercise on an empty stomach If you regularly exercise without eating first, you should reconsider: when you work out on an empty stomach, research shows that the calories burned come from muscle, not fat. Since muscle burns more calories than fat, the more muscle mass you have, the better it is for weight loss. Not only will fuelling your body help you avoid losing muscle, but also, you'll have more energy to push yourself through your workout. Your partner isn't on the same healthy path A partner who's on a similar path can

chow down isn't saving time or energy and can lead to mindless eating. It's best to designate time for snacking and meals that's set apart from other activities. You wear clothes that are too big Loose clothes are comfy, but they cover up the body and allow you to ignore what you look like, which can work against your fitness motivation. Instead, opt for clothes that have a more fitted silhouette to help give you a sense of your body image. Or better yet, start the day in your gym outfit to inspire you to do something active. You're on a sort of diet… Whether you're on Slimming World, Weight Watchers, or your own diet-andexercise plan, you can't do it half-heartedly and expect to see results. Stay committed to your plan, or you'll see the pounds stay on your butt instead of dropping from the scale.

Sex O’Clock Red Cross launches training initiative

Cooking course

The Red Cross and the City of Guardamar are launching training activities to improve vocational cooking skills. The course has the support of the City and ten restaurants in the area where students were put through their paces. The initiative forms part of a commitment to promote the employment of people who have previously had difficulty in finding work. The first course, Basic Kitchen Operations was held with the objective of providing work and life skills. A total of 15 people are enrolled on the course, which started in mid-April, and consists of theoretical work developed by the IES Les Dunes of Guardamar and a practical element - 60 hours - that takes place at the participating restaurants. This Red Cross course not only teaches students to perform basic culinary tasks. The training includes cross-food handling and risk prevention, as well as basic notions of gender equality, the kitchen environment, job search, and the rights and duties of workers.

Sex O’Clock – the time of the week when most couples are having sex – is 10.24pm on a Saturday night, according to new research. It was the peak time for love-making and usually followed a romantic meal and a spell watching TV. The busiest time for sex comes just six minutes before the start of Match Of The Day – suggesting sex is more important than football to most couples or men don’t last very long in bed! Saturdays are by far the most popular day for sex – chosen by 42% of couples, followed by Sundays (26%) and Fridays (22%). However, the time when couples most desire sex and when they actually do it differs by almost five hours. The time when we are most aroused is 5.35pm on a Saturday – but clearly there are fewer opportunities to have sex in the late afternoon. The survey showed that our sex lives are a constant battle between desire and opportunity. A third of us are most aroused first thing

in the morning – yet just 12% make love at that time because of work pressures. We desire sex far more in the summer – named as the sexiest season by 62% of respondents, followed by winter (20%), spring (14%) and autumn (4%). The findings come in a survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com – Britain’s biggest dating site for married people. Around half of couples (45%) are so busy that they ‘schedule’ sex with their long-term partner or their lover in a diary. Six out of ten couples have booked a hotel getaway specifically to get some time alone for sex and intimacy. Alcohol is not a key component of most couples’ foreplay – with 60% saying they rarely drink before having sex. Less than a quarter (22%) said they often boozed before love-making. The most popular activity prior to sex was a romantic meal, followed by watching TV, talking intimately, going to the pub and a night out with friends.

All About Health & Beauty Water, water everywhere ... but how much do you drink? As the warm weather appears to have suddenly arrived it is time to be aware of how much water we actually drink and the importance of this. Did you know that 75% of our body is made up of water? Brain tissue is said to be 85% water and that the majority of us don’t drink even half the amount of water that we should. Do you know how much you should drink each day? Research suggests that many modern illnesses spring from the fact that we don’t drink enough plain water. When our bodies eventually cry out in protest it presents as Alzheimer’s, high blood pressure, indigestion, migraine, joint pain to name but a few things. It’s even more important to have a good water intake when we live in a country where summer temperatures can reach the 100s. As we grow older we begin to lose our perception of thirst and fail to drink enough water which results in our vital organs becoming prune like and not functioning normally. Many elderly people actually die of dehydration - very few in Westernised countries die of malnutrition. Dry mouth is not a reliable sign that we are becoming dehydrated

it is probably one of the last things to happen as the deep tissues will be dehydrated before we feel thirsty. We should be drinking around 2 to 3 litres of water every day and around 500 ml of this in the morning to replace water lost during the hours of sleep. It is best to drink water separate from food, ideally half an hour before or after eating and to keep drinking often and little during the day.

The recommendation is to filter tap water before drinking or drink bottled water as this avoids the main pollutants found in tap water. However a word of warning here as if plastic bottles are left in direct sunlight the bottle can release some of its harmful chemicals and it is thought can be carcinogenic so glass bottles are safer. Many people drink carbonated drinks to ensure their fluid intake is adequate but another word of warning is that these drinks are not

a substitute for pure plain water. Green tea and many herb teas count as part of the 2 to 3 litres but coffee, alcohol and fizzy drinks should not be counted. Cambridge do a water flavouring that is calorie free and does brighten up plain water. This week we are giving away a free orange or berry water flavouring to the first reader to SMS us and claim the prize. To get into a health routine of drinking your water every day open a bottle and if you live with another person put your name on the bottle and use this to drink from and by the end of the day you will know how much you do or more importantly do not drink. Another little sign that you aren’t drinking enough water is to take a peek in the loo after urinating and see what colour your pee is. The darker the pee the more dehydrated you will be and therefore the more water you need to drink. Cheers to a happy hydrated summer!

Can you help please. I changed over to a Spanish licence in June 2013 at the age of 68 after taking the statutory medical. I asked then, and have tried asking several sources since, as to when I need to take another medical. I have not been able to get a satisfactory answer from anyone. Can you enlighten me please. It would, I am sure, be of assistance to a lot of people if some sort of table could be published. B Weston Francisco Morales of the Guardia Civil Traffic Corps answers: Thanks for your question Mr. Weston. Actually, the law has changed and now if you are over 65 years old, your licence will be renewed every 5 years, unless the state of your health dictates that your doctor encourages you to renew your licence before five years. So as a general rule every 5 year over 65 year old but your medical conditions can make this period shorter.

CostaBlancaPeople May 24th - 30th 2016

When do I need to take another medical check? You have to check the expiration date of your Spanish Licence in the back of it. That date is the deadline to carry out a new medical test. You can do it the last day or up to 3 months before, never after that day if you want to keep driving. If for any reason you are not in Spain you can even carry out the renewal abroad. If you were not able to renew your licence for a couple of years, do not worry, you do not lose your licence; however you cannot drive until a doctor checks that you are in optimal health conditions to do it. The following information is directly from the DGT traffic authority and may help clarify matters. What is the duration of the licence? • Permission Class B has a term of 10 years

up to age 65 years. • From age 65 the term is 5 years Permits BTP, C1, C1 + E, C, C + E, D1, D1 + E, D and D + E classes • Five years until the licence holder turns 65. • From age 65 the term shall be three years. When can you ask for an extension? The request for extension of the permit or license may be submitted three months prior to the date of loss of effect. What if the term has ended? The holder of the permit or license whose validity has expired can obtain an extension, being excused from testing control and knowledge of skills and behaviours. The request for extension of validity can be performed at a Medical Renewal Centre (no need to go to the Traffic

Department). Documentation required Proof of identity and residence • ID card or passport: original. • Authorization of residence or identity card or passport of their country along with the Certificate of Registration in the Central Register of Foreigners for EU nationals: original. • Authorization of residence for non-EU foreigners: original. • Conduct a report of medical fitness. • IV.3 Tax payment Renewing a driving licence from abroad Applications shall be forwarded through diplomatic or consular representations with the following documents: 1) Copy of withdrawal of payment rate (2015): € 25.30.

Uber drivers accused of sex attacks

One third of parents let children drive illegally

New statistics reveal one assault every 11 days last year by drivers on popular carhire app. Uber drivers are accused of sexually assaulting or raping customers almost three times a month, according to new figures which have outraged rape campaigners. Freedom of Information data obtained by The Sun newspaper revealed 32 assault claims were made against employees of the taxi-hailing app in London over the past twelve months, equal to one every eleven days. The figure represents more than a fifth of all claims against taxi and car-hire drivers filed to 14 UK police forces last year, which totalled at 154 allegations including attacks in minicabs and chauffeur vehicles. In January, Uber driver Aliriza Kurt from Finsbury Park was jailed for 18 months after picking up a young woman

A recent study has found that over a third of parents let their kids drive a car before they turn 17 years old and in most cases they even drive on the public road. 2,157 British parents aged 35 or over were surveyed by money saving website Voucher Codes Pro and 35 per cent of the respondents said they let their children drive before reach the legal driving age of 17. Among those that admitted to letting their kids drive under 17, more than half allowed them do so on the public road network. Even more staggering, three per cent of those surveyed revealed they let their child drive when as young as nine years old.

in his vehicle and touching her while asking, “are you comfortable with this?” before she managed to escape. Meanwhile in the US, a succession of sexual assault claims against Uber drivers has damaged the company’s reputation of being “the safest ride on the road.” In London 30,000 users download and sign up to Uber every week and it

operates across 20 cities in the UK. In a statement Uber’s spokesman said: “All drivers who use the Uber app in London are fully licensed by Transport for London and have undergone exactly the same enhanced DBS checks as black cab drivers, teachers and care workers. “We take any allegations of this nature very seriously - we work closely with the police on their inquiries and prevent drivers from using the app while investigations take place “Our GPS technology also means that every trip - more than one million in London each week - is electronically recorded.”

Cloned police car used in crimes Four people have been detained after being found in a cloned Guardia Civil car used to commit drug thefts. Among the arrested, who were detained in Málaga recently, was a Guardia Civil officer and a retired officer from the police service along with two civilians. The car was an impeccable replica; the bonnet and front doors coloured green, the wings white and the stickers of the Spanish coats of arms and of the Guardia Civil were present. The replica is almost perfect, and could easily be used in a film. The police found the cloned Guardia Civil car, which according to the investigation was to be used by a gang of drug traffickers to steal narcotics from other gangs. The discovery was made at the beginning of March in a garage in Algeciras, where the vehicle was being kept and which led last week to the arrest of the four suspects. The copy cat car was a Renault Megane and was found by chance by a unit from the brigade for Citizens Safety

from the Algeciras Police Station. A patrol car noted the garage door was open and stopped to look inside thinking they had found one of their own cars. Their first hypothesis was that the car

had been stolen from one of their patrols, but on closer inspection the symbols which should have been painted on to the vehicle were actually just stickers.

Some let kids drive ‘just for fun’ The vast majority of those who let their children drive when under 17 say they allowed it in order to give their kids some experience before taking to the road the

first time. However, nearly a quarter of those that made the same admission says it was all ‘just for fun’. A minority of respondents said they simply let their kids drive so young to prove to them that driving is harder than they thought. Nearly half of all the parents surveyed (47 per cent) said that the minimum driving age should be reduced to 16.

N332 Out ‘In Force’ There was yet another full house at last Thursdays meeting of the Orihuela Costa Branch of the Royal British Legion as members and guests turned out ‘in force’ to welcome the N332 Team, Francisco Morales and Mark Nolan as they discussed many of the common problems that expat drivers are faced with when they move to Spain. Mark had the audience attention right from the start with his opening remark, ‘This is how you identify an unmarked

police car.’ But the subject was covered for good reason, as a result of the increasing amount of car crime involving motorists being stopped by bogus Guardia Officers which is gradually spreading into the area. The pair then covered matters including distraction theft and many of the more obvious matters such as vehicle documents, footwear, warning triangles and the necessary security of passengers, pets and loads in moving vehicles. Accompanying the two speakers on the night were Nicholas Bradford, the occasion being used to present the former West Midland Traffic Policeman with a

token of appreciation for his help with the N332 project, and Paul Piccio, the President of C.L.A.R.O. who attended the event as part of his efforts to find out more about local clubs and groups that are operating on the Costa Blanca.

May 24th - May 30th 2016 This week brings the launch in our area of a brand new tribute band. “The Starbeats” are a 4 piece live Beatles Tribute Band. Newly formed they may be but the 4 members are old hands at the music business and are well known up and down the Costa in their other incarnations as the Desperados, Fakers Quo and various duos and trios to boot. Ricky Patton, Rae Daniels, Trace Graham and Lee “The animal” Donovan will be performing to what promises to be a packed house this Saturday 28th May at The Club, Quesada. The “boys” as they are known take great pride in their music and spend many hours on rehearsals and making sure that every nuance of the act is primed to perfection. With very few dates left on their calendar, this is a unique chance to witness our very own home grown Beatles Band. If you are down San Javier way, you simply have to go to Timeout Bar to see the one and only Phil Collins Tribute in the country. Rob Lewis has been stunning audiences literally all over the world with his uncanny tribute the ex-Genesis drummer. Rob is heavily booked on American cruise ships that take him from the Far East to Scandinavian so this is a rare chance to be amazed with an exceptionally talented act. Not only does he look and soundalike his hero, but Rob has a very energetic act that can leave the audiences breathless. On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday you have the chance to see not one, but two, theatre productions. At The Cardinal Belluga Theatre in San Fulgencio, Stagestruck will be performing the situation comedy/ farce“Just Another Week in Paradise?” Whilst in Los Montesinos at the School of Music The Rascals are offering some musical theatre with their “Saturday Night At The Movies” For only 6 and 7 Euros for a night of theatre entertainment that is not often on offer in our area, why not pop along and get tickets for both shows. After all as an actress and producer myself I know of the time and effort that goes into producing one of these shows. There can be nothing more rewarding that seeing so many people enjoying themselves and knowing that the months of hard work, line learning, costume sewing and the millions of other jobs that had to be done have all been worthwhile. The volunteers who perform do it for the love of the stage and for the love of audiences who come to see them. Live entertainment comes in all forms. Long may we continue to support those who provide us with the vast array of entertainment we have to choose from. How dull would it be without them? If you would like your events in this guide, they are FREE. Just email me the details to letsrockshowslive @gmail.com. To book acts please go to my new site www.jaxlawson.com Shows dates can be found on www.lrshows.com Love life, love music and support your venues and acts.

Emergency chemist

TILING

In every town on the Costa Blanca, you will find a chemist open out of hours. In some larger towns such as Torrevieja, some chemists open throughout the day with no ‘siesta’, or even until 9pm and over weekends. The duty chemist can change on a weekly basis and in some towns, local pharmacies take turns to be ‘on duty’ out of hours and through the night for emergencies. If you approach an emergency chemist and it appears to be closed, look closer as often for security reasons, out of hours business is done via a small hatch through which

prescriptions, payment and medication can be passed. Consult a full list of emergency chemists for out of hours medication at: www.lasfarmaciasdeguardia.com Under the heading, “Farmacias de guardia por provincia” choose your province (Alicante or Murcia for most readers) and you will be presented with an alphabetical list of towns. Simply click the town you are in, or a nearby town, and you will be given the name of the chemist along with a Google Maps link to the location.

VEGA BAJA PREMIER GOLF LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL – LO ROMERO GOLF With two Divisions North and South, the Championship Final is to determine the Premier title between the top team from each Division and third and fourth place would be from the second place teams from each Division The format for this 2015/2016 Final is Singles Matchplay team event, playing from Full Handicap Allowance with a slight difference; each Hole that is won earns a point a draw half a point. Therefore, there is a maximum of 18 points available for each singles match. The Society with the most points wins the team match. This allows all the Holes to be played. The two teams competing for the prestigious title of Premier Champions were EuroToffs G.S. Northern Champions and El Valle G.S. Southern Champions. Third place was competed for by La Manga North G S for the South and Altea G.S. for the North. The Lo Romero Golf course was in very good condition and was praised by all

who played on the day. Congratulations to the El Valle G.S. team and Captain Damon White who was presented with the Premiership Trophy, by VBPGL Secretary Ivie Davies. Commiserations to EuroToffs and their Captain Bill Martin, who put up a good

fight. They were presented with the second place Trophy. A big well done to all the players, who not only participated in the Final, but the whole League season.

You will also be able to see updated Vega Baja Premier Golf League fixtures, tables, and news on the website www.vegabajapremiergolfleague.com and on Facebook, throughout the season For more information on the Vega Baja Premier Golf League, contact The Secretary; Ivie Davies 669 211 410 or golfdavies@gmail.com

Quesada Golf Society The Society made the short trip to play the well established course on the doorstep, La Marquesa , which was found to be in good condition. The skies overhead were blue and the sun was out.

COSTA COBRAS RFC BEACH RUGBY TRAINING Costa Cobras RFC held its AGM on Friday and have made a few changes to the club in order to attract more players, also making extremely good progress about some mega events planned for the next year.

So any insurance companies that can help us please contact the club on the number below. Costa Cobras RFC training is on Monday and Wednesday from 18.0019.30 at Daya Vieja at the sports ground until the end of the month concentrating and ball skills and fitness, ready for the beach tournaments.

Highland, quarter final conqueror of the Emerald Isle’s Mary Whitelock, will face Julie Lincoln. In the Men’s Singles the Emerald Isle’s Frank Close goes into next week’s semi Final in good form against Chris Brazier of Quesada. On home turf the congenial Geordie is the man to beat having been only narrowly edged out in the recent final of the Champion of Champions Competition at Greenlands. It could be an all Emerald Isle final with the home club’s Dennis Rhodes meeting Martin Foulcer of Vistabella, in the other semi final The semi finals of the Men’s Pairs sees

Perfect day for a game of golf. There was a bit of a cock up with the start time which was thankfully resolved and everyone got their round of golf. The course always proves popular with our members. The competition was an individual stableford. For the men their was a Gold and Silver division and also a competition for the ladies. Ann Hobbs wore a very colourful skirt which may set a trend. The winner of the Gold division was the genial Irishman and the societies lowest handicapper with 32 points closely followed by Brighton boy Victor Dew with 31 points who just pipped Welshman Mike Thomas to second place on C/B. In the Silver division the winner was Buffalo Bill Acton with 26 points followed by young David James in

second place with 24 points and in third place with 23 points was the jovial Scotsman Sergio Spiers. In the ladies competition the winner on C/B with 28 points was Sheila McSweeney who just pipped Ann Hobbs. In third place with 25 points was Janet Candelin. There were only 4 nearest the pin winners from the 6 on offer. Two were won by the big hitting Welsh lass Sue Forbes with Welshman Mike Thomas and Wild Bill Acton picking up the others. There were 3 winners of the 2´s who each pocketed a fist full of euro´s. These were John the Panda Dunnion - big cutie, Stormin Norman Lewis and Sue Forbes who had a good day. The winner of the scratchcard was Ann Hobbs. After the game the players returned to the society base at the bright and airy refurbished bar area at the Quesada Country Club for the presentations, a drink or two and a tasty hot and cold buffet kindly provided by mine hosts. The next society game is on Wednesday 1 June at La Finca which is already full. Before then on Tuesday 24 May there is a members meeting at the Quesada Country Club starting at 10.30a m Anyone in the Quesada area looking to join a very friendly golf society and play golf once a fortnight at a wide variety of courses at a very reasonable cost, should contact the Chairman & Membership Secretary Les Pancott on 966716723. Darrylldinho

Miller and Chris Parsons. In the second semi the current champions are still very much in the hunt as Jacqui Johnston looks to make up for the disappointment of her exit from the singles with partner Mel Highland. But the twosome will not have their own way as they too face stiff opposition from Carol Broomfield and Peta Rhodes, also of Quesada. Jacqui and Mel also feature in the semi finals of the Mixed Triples where they are joined by Mel’s husband Colin, as the threesome attempt to see off Tenerife’s sole representatives, the Cathcart family. National team manager Graham will be partnered by brother Robert and mother Grace as the trio representing Teide Bowls Club, attempt to reach their first ever Nationals Final. The second triples semi will pitch Ann and Carl Eagle with Bob Nesbitt against Frank and Dave Close and Yvonne Mallaburn. See the Spanish Nationals Facebook page for the very latest news and information.

EL PLANTIO 2 GS An imbalance of numbers necessitated Club Captain, John O`Brien having to change the format of the game on 17th May from a Team Greensome to an individual Joker. This suited Mel Hope, who returned a magnificent 47 Stableford points, which had handicap secretary, Ian Henderson rubbing his hands with glee. Indeed, it was good to see the higher handicap players claiming the prizes for a change - all of them due a cut. Nearest the pins : Hole 2 , Rod Loveday, Hole 6, Henry Mellor 3rd Place, Handicap 18, Bryan Watson - 44 points. 2nd Place, Handicap 18, Stewart Paterson - 44 points on count back 1st Place, Handicap 12, Mel Hope 47 points. If anyone would like to join our Society, we play at El Plantio Golf Club on Tuesday, Friday and Sunday. We use both courses - the Par 3 nine hole course and the main 18 hole course, so we cater for all abilities. The membership rates are very competitive, so call for more details. Anyone who wishes to play in the Society as a guest or join as a new member, contact Ian Henderson on 966 716 616 or 636 116 230. David Swann

Tales from the top flight ■ CHRIS DARWEN chris@costablancapeople.com

Folks, welcome to the final TFTTF of the 2015/16 season! Don’t panic, I’ll still be here next week where we start to “enjoy” the delights of Euro 2016 together, but today we draw a line on all things domestic for the 2015/16 season. Which is how Louis van Gaal feels, I can tell you. In another move of sheer class by the lurker in the shadows, Mourinho’s camp provided evidence on Saturday night that the Portuguese manager had signed a pre-contract with United stating that LvG would be fired if he failed to deliver Champions League football and that Jose would take over.

Costa Blanca People Crib League 2015/16 Knockout Cup Final Result The final of the Crib League KO was played between Spanglish Robins and Irish Abbey Magpies. They all had very good games and they were even at the end of 8 legs at 4-4. The Irish Abbey Magpies won the final leg to give them a win of 5-4. The teams were presented with trophies and prizes of 150 & 75 euro by Richard Needham. This is the first time in quite a few years when the winners of the league have won the KO cup as well. Congratulations to the Irish Abbey Magpies for winning both the league and KO cup also to Lo Crispin Tavern and Spanglish Robins for both being runners-up. Thankyou also to the Costa Blanca people for the sponsorship they provided for us and finally a great big thank you to Martyn, Paul and all their staff for providing such wonderful food and being such good hosts. Thank you to everybody involved, hope to see you all next season. Vicki & Tim

Failure to honour the pre-contract would cost United £3m big ones. Now regular readers will know, I’ve given van Gaal a bit of a kicking over the season but a man who has won what he has won over the years deserves a little more respect, even if he does think Ashley Young is an acceptable choice as a centre forward. Does Mourinho fit the mould of a United manager? They are a club who are so brand conscious they have an official partner for toilet paper so I would suggest that signing a manager who is only interested in his own image is probably not the best move. Who knows, maybe United will just give Mourinho £3m and stick with Van Gaal (and face the wrath of the United fans who seem to think Jose will give them thrilling attacking football in a team full of academy graduates). Anyway, United won the FA Cup in extra time. Or rather, Palace lost the FA Cup with ten minutes left on the clock. Local boy Puncheon climbed off the bench in a manner that put Ian Wright back in the nation’s thoughts and fired the South London side ahead with just twelve minutes to go. To be fair to Pardew, United deserved their equaliser once the replays of the Palace manager’s celebratory dance were shown. Fewer moves than Wayne Rooney, that guy. Then Rooney picked the ball up deep in midfield and, in slow motion, weaved past several red and blue shirts before putting in a decent cross to the far post. Mata fired home the goal that United deserved, having hit the post twice. The winning goal belonged to another substitute, Lingard

rifling home an unstoppable strike to give United their first trophy since Ferguson, signalling the start of the Mourinho circus act. Palace were not the only side to clasp defeat out of the jaws of victory this week. Liverpool, dominant in the first half against Sevilla in the Europa League

Final will have left the changing rooms after half time with the words of Klopp jangling in their ears. “Keep it tight boys, don’t concede early and they will run out of ideas.” Oh Jurgen, to see Moreno squeeze two mistakes into the first thirty seconds of the second period must have been heartbreaking. Still, when you have lost four cup finals in a row you must be used to cup final heartbreak. Sturridge sent a nod in the direction of Roy with a fine outside of the boot finish to give Liverpool the lead and then an entirely different team played out the second forty five minutes. Still, Kolo Toure looked half decent which was a surprise to say the least.

Speaking of Roy, he fired up the computer and typed out 27 names under the bold heading of “provisional squad for Euro 2016.” They actually appeared to be 27 names not drawn out entirely at random. Rashford was given a chance to impress, Andros Townsend earned a recall ahead of Walcott due to his good form at the end of the season. Fabian Delph should be looking nervously over his shoulder at the sight of Danny Drinkwater mouthing “I’ve had your title and now I’m having your England shirt” at him. Unsurprisingly Wilshere was given a chance, with Henderson but it would be fool hardy to select both in the squad with their recent injuries. Old school sticker album providers Panini got it all horribly wrong, including Phil Jones, OxladeChamberlain, Baines, Luke Shaw, Walcott and Welbeck in their print run. That’s 30% of the squad wrong, yet still marginally better than my Premier League predictions for the season. Following the squad announcement, Rooney said he was happy to play “in any position for his country.” If you are that committed to the cause Wayne, why not retire and let some players that can actually run have a go now? I know he beat five players in the lead up to United’s FA Cup equaliser, but he was hardly moving like Usain Bolt. Clearly taking inspiration from Leicester, Sven

has claimed that “England can win the Euros!” The report missed out the bit where he said “because I am clearly no judge of an England team whatsoever.” Having said that, a punter stands to win £500,000 if England do indeed win, which with the odds being several trillion to one means he must have staked less than a penny. So Roy’s hopefuls took on Turkey at the Etihad on Sunday night. Vardy, given leave of absence for the next game due to attend his wedding, grabbed a late winner in a match where England looked as dangerous in defence as they did going forward. Still, if they play like this in France then they will be enjoyable to watch for once. That said, it only takes one player to slow down the exuberant attacking play, right? Vardy cancelled his wedding last year when Hodgson called him up, so the England manager had no qualms in letting him have a day off to tie the knot. The partnership with Kane, who scored the opening goal and missed a penalty, looks full of potential. England will be pleased with their 2-1 win. So that’s it for the 2015/16 season folks. Missing it already? Then why not head over to Amazon and purchase my new book, cunningly titled “Tales from the Top Flight: A Review of the 2015/16 Season.” I won’t lie, it’s all this year’s articles under one roof, but why not read back over any columns you have missed or catch up on the articles that never made it to press. It’s on Amazon. I repeat, it’s on Amazon. What do you mean they don’t deliver to Spain....?

Paddy’s Point GS Imanyo Golf Society Forty three members and guests turned out for the first competition of the new season, the Captain's Drive In. This year, for the first time, we have a Lady Captain and we wish her well for her year in office. A good crowd gathered at the first tee to see Myra 'drive in' and although she skirted with the out of bounds all was well with the ball well in play. The course was in great condition although the fast greens and strong wind made scoring difficult. Back at Paddy's we again enjoyed Rory and Hazel's hospitality, thank you both so much also a big thank you to your fantastic staff. NEAREST THE CAPTAIN'S DRIVE - Elsie

“Parkinson’s Vase” at Altorreal

This was the second time the “Parkinson Vase” was played for and sponsored by our representative from the UK Geoff Ham, unfortunately he and his wife could not make it this year so our Spanish representative Ted Adams stepped in for the presentation. Twenty three players turned out with over 25% of these making the trip from the UK to play in the competition, one particular player, Stuart Barclay, only lost out by two points last year did he win this year? The day started with the usual full English breakfast where we did the draw for tee times, the format was full handicap Stableford but on returning to Imanyo’s we did a blind draw for four holes which doubled the points on those holes. The venue was Altorreal where we were greeted by Antonio and his friendly staff, as usual everything was ready and waiting and the course was in very good condition, the tees were set well back, the greens were fantastic and the weather conditions were perfect considering we had had three days of rain before.

Your week in Sport ABBEY ANGLING We fished the 10th and final round of the Spring Series on the river Segura at Murcia on the 17th May. The water now seems to be returning to its natural colour, and the milkiness is now dissipating. Richard King just needed a few points in this final match to clinch the cup, which he did. The fish had other things on their mind; they were crashing and banging in the margins in full spawning mode. The feeder and corn still seems to be the in method, but going for the Bleak is a waste of time as the Carp weights are increasing. 1st Terry Screen with 9.560kgs 2nd Doug Hornblow with 9.340kgs 3rd Richard King with 9.140kgs All fishing the feeder using corn The winners of the Spring Series Cup best 8 from 10 matches FIRST Richard King with 73points JOINT SECOND Bill Reade & Terry Screen both with 61 points There are still some vacancies available for membership at the club All details are available on our

website www.abbeyangling.com or from me on 965328368 RODS & REELS The 5th round of the Summer Series was fished at the El Bosquet Complex on the 18th May. Word has it that this water has been fishing well, so our hopes were high for a good day, as it turned out the three stretches produced double figures. With the rolls reversing from the day before for first and second place, the results were 1st Doug Hornblow with 20.740kgs fishing pole using corn and pellet 2nd Terry Screen with 19.860kgs fishing the feeder using corn 3rd Dave Hutchinson with 19.300kgs fishing the pole using corn The latest news we have heard about the ongoing protests regarding the eradication of indigenous species in Spain.

England beat both Sri Lanka and the Yorkshire weather in the first cricket Test match of the summer. James Anderson, never normally a fan of playing at Headingly, picked up a ten-

TIGHT LINES Terry Screen wicket haul which went a long way to helping England win by an innings and 88 runs. England only needed to bat once, and Jonny Bairstow scored an excellent 170 before taking 9 catches behind the stumps. The match had an air of two sides that clearly fancied doing something else on their Sunday than standing around in the freezing cold English climate.

Poor weather wasn’t exclusive to Yorkshire however. Rain poured down with regular frequency on the opening day of the French Open. That’s tennis, if you were unaware. I have never understood why they start this tournament on a Sunday. Maybe that’s what the England boys were hoping to do, watch a bit of the moody Australian Kyrgios in his first round win. When rain stopped play on Sunday, Heather Watson was in the deciding set against Gibbs. Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke mentioned earlier in the week that he was planning to bring in Jurgen Klopp to give a motivational speech to his European golfing team before the September showdown with the USA. Providing Europe aren’t winning at the half way point and needing to consolidate for victory then it could go quite well. In further golf non-news, Tiger Woods has said he doesn’t know when he will be back playing golf following back surgery. Tiger my man, you stopped playing golf way before that back operation.

I would have thought that if you were an Olympic shooter, then one of the things you would be very keen not to lose is your gun license. It appears Australian Michael Diamond is not that bothered. He has been charged with firearm offences in his home country, which has led to him being told he cannot use a gun legally anymore. If I were him, I’d look at booking a summer holiday somewhere pronto. The new FIFA president is clearly a

man of substance, determined to rid the organisation of all people tainted by the past and sweep through the room like a new broom. One of the first important pieces of the reform jigsaw has been a new “Head of Strategy.” Step forward Norwegian Kjetil Siem. Mr Siem has no allegiance to the past other than calling Sepp Blatter “an absolute role model.” That’s the kind of reform we are looking for guys, well done.
