Costas under terror threat Tourists are being warned of a fresh wave of terror attacks across Spain after an ISIS fanatic called on Muslims to attack busy destinations.

n an article published by ISIS-affiliated media company Al-Wafa, Abu Marya AlAseef says fighters should use explosives, machine guns and trucks – similar to the Nice attack – to avenge ‘the crimes committed by Spain against Muslims.’ Resorts, nightclubs, planes, cinemas,

cafes and bars are listed as suggested targets for jihadi militants. Al-Aseef also urges people living in Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Mauritania, and Libya to kidnap Spaniards and either behead them or exchange them for Muslim prisoners. He wrote: “As their governments kill our brothers, so should we [seek] revenge and reprisal.” The article is titled Spain of Fernando, We vow to seek revenge, and says Spaniards must pay the price for the country’s military involvement in the Middle East. Spain has not had a terrorist attack since the Al Qaeda’s Madrid train bombings in 2004, which killed 192. However, the country on a level four terrorism alert in the wake of attacks in France and Germany, Spain is stepping up security throughout its Mediterranean coastline, with armed patrols and drones being rolled out to protect the millions of holidaymakers that will flock to its beaches

over the next month. The attacks in France, as well as the situation in Turkey, along with the attacks last year in Tunisia, have prompted many vacationers to change their summer travel plans in favour of Spain. Benidorm, one of Spain’s most popular resorts, is being patrolled by a drone. We were pioneers, but other towns are now using drones,” says Carlos López of the Benidorm local police, and one of four officers responsible for the surveillance craft. The drones are mostly used for detecting swimmers in trouble, vessels which have gone adrift and smoke that could be a sign of a forest fire, a common occurrence in the summer months. But they are also useful in the detection of many other kinds of risk situations, said the officers. Meanwhile Catalonia’s regional government is aware of the danger and the impact any kind of attack would have on Spain’s tourism industry. In response, they

have assigned large numbers of regional Mossos d’Esquadra police officers armed with submachine guns and assault rifles to resorts such as Roses and Lloret de Mar, where they are patrolling sea fronts and controlling access to beach areas. In June, the US State Department issued a travel alert warning its citizens about “the risk of potential terrorist attacks throughout Europe, targeting major events, tourist sites, restaurants, commercial centers and transportation.” “The large number of tourists visiting Europe in the summer months will present greater targets for terrorists planning attacks in public locations, especially at large events,” said the note. Following the attack in Nice on 14th July, Catalonia’s regional premier, Carles Puigdemont, met with anti-terrorism officers. Jordi Jané, the region’s interior chief, said that his own security services had warned of an attack in France. At that point,

armed units were deployed to resort areas as well as train and bus stations, airports and government buildings. Over 18 million tourists visited Spain in the first four months of 2016 alone, representing a 13 percent rise from the same period last year. The country broke a record for international tourist arrivals last year with over 68 million visitors, of whom 1.5 million came from the United States, according to official figures.

Despite a police search there didn’t appear to be any sign of a struggle and vegetation had not been displaced. There were no signs of injury other than those incurred as the man fell. At this time it is thought his death was probably from natural causes or the result of an accident but further investigation was planned. Prior to going to press police confirmed the man did die of natural causes and is believed to have been dead for around seven days. Suzanne O’Connell

Beach party stabbing in Mil Palmeras A teenage boy was injured after being stabbed several times at Mil Palmeras beach at about 6am last Thursday. It happened as hundreds of young people had gathered there for a party after police cordoned off Dehesa de Campoamor since the cancellation of the annual music festival in that area. According to police the boy suffered several cuts during an argument but no one has been arrested for the attack yet. The victim was able to walk to a health centre for treatment and Orihuela council workers cleaned up the blood the following morning. This was the only incident to spoil the

night after police in Campoamor put a stop to the traditional street party there and people moved on to Mil Palmeras instead. There appeared to be far fewer revellers than in previous years when thousands have flocked to the party. Quite a few went to the Metro disco instead on buses which the organisers of the event had put on knowing that a lot of people would be left without a party and would be looking for a plan B. The following morning the beach, park and area were full of bottles and rubbish and Pilar Town Hall sent out a team of 20 workers and 6 trucks to clean it up before people arrived at the beach.

Woman arrested for stabbing her boyfriend BITE SIZE National Police have arrested a Brazilian woman aged 52 years old for allegedly stabbing her boyfriend. The incident took place in the bar they both run on Calle Alfonso XII in the

centre of Orihuela. The man was taken to Vega Baja Hospital by ambulance and is still hospitalised but his life is not in danger. The stabbing happened in the early

hours of the morning after a row between the couple but no other details are known. It is not clear what the couple were arguing about or why the woman stabbed her partner.

David Guetta in Benidorm Just in case you have no idea who David Guetta is, he is a French DJ, record producer and remixer. He doesn’t play on stage but he does DJ. He is very popular, commands large audiences in prestigious venues and is usually a regular in Ibiza. This year, however, he chose Benidorm in which to perform. On 6th August he was DJ at the Football Stadium in Benidorm. More than 16,000 people turned up and he played for at least 90 minutes to the packed stadium. He stuck to the tried and tested and most commercial favourites, including ‘When Love Takes Over’, ‘This

ones for you’ and ‘Lovers of the sun’ to name but a few. The audience very much appreciated the effects and the combination of music and light as part of the performance. There was plenty of smoke, fire and it was quite a glitzy event for those recording it on their phones. There was one point when the music went off, but only for five minutes before the trouble shooters had reconnected and the event continued. The stadium opened its doors at 7pm but David Guetta did not begin his part of the evening’s entertainment until 12.30am. He was supported by other DJs

including Santi Bertomeu, Kungs, Jonas Blue and Feder. Following Guetta’s performance the partying continued with Sam Feldt and DJ Nano. The appearance of Guetta in Benidorm was welcomed by the mayor, Antonio Pérez, who considered it to be a great promotional event for the resort. ‘This will have a significant impact,’ said the mayor, ‘when it is recognised that Guetta visited our town.’ Benidorm made the most of the additional visitors on the evening to boost the town’s trade and reputation.

Housing market improves

According to the Real Estate, Hospitality & Construction Capital Confidence Barometer published by Ernst & Young, Spain has climbed seven places to land a top ten spot. The country is only beaten by the United States, the United Kingdom, India, China, Canada, the United Arab Emirates, Germany and Sweden. It puts Spain in front of the likes of France, Italy, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Argentina and Australia. However, the percentage of investors planning to make an investment globally in the next year fell from 50 percent to 37 percent, indicating uncertainties on an international scale. The latest report from the General Council

of Notaries confirms that Spain’s housing market sustained its trend towards recovery in the first three months of the year. Home sales were up 19 percent nationwide compared to same period last year, with double-digit growth in most autonomous regions. Sales were particularly strong in Asturias (+30 percent), Catalonia, the Balearics, Madrid (+24 percent), and Murcia (+22 percent). House price were up 4% on average, and by 15 percent in the famous wine-growing region of La Rioja. Other notable price increases took place in the Balearics (+12 percent) and the Canaries (+7 percent).

Spain rose in ranking to become ninth most attractive country for real estate investment. The country is now the ninth most attractive country in the world for real estate and construction investors.

Changing cubicles installed on the beach The councillor for tourism, Fanny Serrano, and the councillor for beaches, Javier Manzanares, showed their appreciation of the new huts that have been installed by the Valencian tourist department on los Náufragos beach. The wooden cubicles enable bathers to get changed in privacy. Valencia has installed 75 of these cubicles across the beaches in the community; shared across the three provinces. They are available to be used between 11am and 7pm and have been grouped in blocks of three. They contain a bench and hangers for clothes. Other improvements to beach facilities include more waste bins and foot showers.

Woman injured by falling branch A falling palm tree branch caused injury to a woman on el Cura beach in Torrevieja. The branch from a palm tree on the avenida de los Marineros fell on her head leading to slight injuries. The victim, who felt faint, was attended at the scene by an ambulance linked to the lifeguard service. Fortunately the branch wasn’t large and the woman recovered quickly from the accident. At the moment, the palm trees are full of dates and this doubles the weight of the leaves and branches. At the moment the fruit is still green but the size is already considerable and the weight is twice what the branches usually carry and they do sometimes break. On el Cura beach, as on the paseo de Juan Aparicio, the trees are a decorative part of the landscape. The town hall usually prune the trees when the dates are at their heaviest. However, many of the fruits do fall from the trees before they are properly mature, which is a nuisance for walkers along the paseo who may not only be hit by them falling but can also slip on the fruit when it’s on the ground.

The Mayor, Emilio Bascuñana, and the Councillor responsible for street cleaning and urban Waste, Noelia Grao, have met with around thirty people, members of different associations and representatives of residents of the coast and The Federation of Associations of Orihuela Costa (FAOC) in order to discuss needs and priorities and to ‘agree actions’ to be launched on the coast. During the meeting the Mayor urged those in attendance to convey their proposals to the government team in the coming weeks, ahead of the preparation of the budgets for 2017. The group appreciated the meeting as it is the first time that the Mayor has attended a meeting with a large number of coastal representatives to personally collect what they believe to be the most urgent needs and demands. The meeting was such a success and so productive that the Mayor may well hold similar meeting with different neighbourhood areas.

He said: “This area always have the support of the government team, as we believe that is the best way to contribute to municipal management in order to solve the problems of neighbours and residents of the Orihuela Costa. These meetings contribute more to our city because it leaves aside individualism and involves all stakeholders we combine our efforts for the good of our city.” The meeting followed hot on the heels of criticism from FAOC, which claimed that “all parts of the coast, without exception” were dirty, made worse due to the fact it is peak holiday season. The association claimed that the embarrassing state of the coast was due to the “deficient” service provided in street cleaning and the collection of garden cuttings and furniture. They also criticised the collection of seaweed from the

Councillor Noelia Grao

beaches, which is being neglected leaving bad smelling mountains that prevent

residents and holidaymakers from enjoying themselves. In a statement FAOC said: “The lack of resources allocated by the Town Hall for collecting garden cuttings has resulted in a spectacle in every street on the coast, with all sorts of furniture and bits of plants waiting to be collected. Also the streets are not cleaned with the proper machines and there are not enough bins for organic waste so people leave bags on the ground.” The association said it believed that the situation is worse than ever and could not understand how it has become so bad just one year after the PP council were elected. They are concerned that tourists will not book return holidays to an areas that is dirty and smells. Noelia Grao, apologised to Orihuela Costa residents for the on-going issues. She said the problems happen every summer and the Town Hall has already invested nearly half a million euros in renting machinery, hiring 18 extra staff and 90 additional bins for the coast.

Cheaper medicine in Spain Health authorities have reduced the price of around 14,500 medicines, which it is believed will save families more than 14.5 million euros. Over-the-counter and prescription medicine has gone down in price in Spain. This includes common tablets such as the stomach protector Omeoprazol, popular anti-inflammatory Ibuprofen, and sleeping pills Lorazepam – also marketed as Orfidal – and

Trankimazin. These are among the 14,479 types of medication which have been reduced in cost. In total, pharmacies will save 126 million euros, this is because the end price to the customer is lower when drugs come on prescription and the regional health authorities then refund the difference to high-street chemist's outlets. A total of 11,735 different types of pills

which have been reduced in price are sold in pharmacies, and the other 2,744 are administered in hospitals. Not all of them are available without a prescription, although some, such as Ibuprofen, can be bought over the counter. In Spain, medicines cannot be bought off the shelf, except for vitamin pills and natural dietary supplements – painkillers such as aspirin and paracetamol, or

cough, cold and 'flu remedies, are only available at the counter in registered chemist’s outlets.

Snakes in Callosa car crash La Siesta A serious car crash in Callosa left a woman trapped inside her car. The accident happened at about midday in the Barrio El Palmeral and all emergency services resources had to be mobilised to rescue the local woman after her car rolled several times trapping her inside the vehicle by her legs. The woman was finally freed by two teams from the Orihuela fire brigade and then taken to Vega Baja Hospital. Luckily, despite the dramatic nature of the accident the lady is not in a serious condition. Callosa Local Police said the different emergency services had coordinated very well. Local Police, Guardia Civil, the fire brigade and medics were able to join forces to provide a quick and satisfactory resolution to the aftermath of the accident. Now the Guardia Civil Traffic department is busy trying to determine the circumstances of the accident.

Costa Blanca People has been contacted by a family who were enjoying a day out in the water park adjacent to La Siesta’s park when a snake was spotted in the grass. The water park staff moved everyone well away from the area until the snake was removed. The snake was thought to have come from the unfinished La Siesta park. The presence of snakes in the area is not unusual. At the beginning of June concerns were raised about the presence of snakes in the scrubland opposite Mercadona bridge in Aguas Nuevas. The snakes here are called culebras bastardes or Montpellier snake and these would appear to be the same breed of snake spotted in the water park. The Montpellier snake does have a mild venom but it is not dangerous to humans. It is often found in areas inhabited by humans and is common throughout Spain. When hunting it does sometimes rear up and look around and will hiss if it feels threatened. However, people finding one of these snakes should not panic but take sensible precautions. It is also worth noting that these snakes eat mice and rats and as such help to maintain a balance of rodents and other pests in the area. These animals are protected by law andTorrevieja has a team of experts who will capture these animals when they do appear in urban environments for later release. Suzanne O’Connell

Protest by bathers BITE SIZE NEWS: in San Roque Continued from page 5

Residents of the San Roque area of Torrevieja protested on 3rd August for the fourth day running at the Avenida Desiderio Rodriguez which forms a main access road into the town. The local police had to intervene as around 100 protesters blocked the road from incoming traffic. The protests are aimed at the councillor for beaches, Javier Manzanares, who they wish to resign (PSOE). They are angry that the councillor has removed the wooden walkway that they used for many years to enter the sea in a rocky part of the coast. They are demanding the installation of two more entry points along with the two that already installed by the council. The mayor, José Manual Dolón, has referred their complaints on to the Dirección General de Costas. He claims that the installation of a wooden walk way was wrong in the first place. The locals have been collecting signatures and claim they already have 2,000 calling for improvements to access to the sea. Following the intervention of the Local Police the Guardia Civil arrived fifteen minutes later. Protesters dispersed after the police warned them that they could

be fined for lack of permission to hold the march. Moments before there had been tension when a driver tried to get through the protesters claiming that he had a relative in the hospital emergency unit. The driver almost ran over a protester who stood in front of the vehicle. Subsequently the protester broke one of the vehicle’s wipers. The protesters left the scene and were warned that they should not repeat the disruption of closing the road without permission. One of the protesters, acting as spokesperson, was asked to present documents but could not do so being only dressed in a bathing costume and sarong. However, the protester was accompanied home to retrieve the documents and a fine might be issued. The neighbours have announced that there will be more protests but they have not disclosed whether these might include stopping traffic. The protesters are angry that the Guardia Civil has taken down all the posters that they have put up on walls and lampposts announcing planned protests during August. Suzanne O’Connell

Four Swedish nationals were travelling in the other vehicle and two of these have serious injuries, the others have slight injuries. The injured were taken to Elche general hospital. A fire engine was needed to remove the man killed by the impact who was trapped in the wreckage. Also in attendance were the Guardia Civil, ambulances and Local Police.

Thousands of holiday rentals in Torrevieja There might be thousands taking up the opportunity of renting an apartment or villa in Torrevieja, but many of these are not officially registered. It is estimated that there are around 253,850 rental places available in Torrevieja. Many of these are second homes and only a relatively small number would be registered as being rented. Out of the 430,000 places believed to be available in the Vega Baja only 7,962 are in regulated apartments according to the Valencian Tourism Agency. Significant differences exist across the region in terms of there being a requirement to register. In Benidorm, which has 182,220 places available, more than fifty thousand of these are registered by the regional administration. There are calls for the different municipalities to be brought more in line and registration requirements to be more consistent across the area. Suzanne O’Connell

Recycling plan for Torrevieja One of the decorated containers

Designs to get the campaign noticed

Shopping Torrevieja and the councillor for the environment, Fanny Serrano, have announced a summer campaign to get people recycling their glass items. The target is to collect 10% more glass than last year, something which the organisation feels is not too big a challenge. In particular it is hoped that restaurants will significantly increase the amount of recycling they engage in. The amount of glass used is particularly high during the summer months and 48% of single use of glass comes from the hospitality industry. Although restaurants are a major focus of the campaign, the appeal is not restricted to them but goes out to all those living in Torrevieja and visiting the area. Ecovidrio has started the campaign in 90 large towns across the country, Torrevieja being one of them. The message of the campaign is that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Every bottle countsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. It is currently estimated that every Spaniard recycles an average of 59 glass containers a year. The campaign emphasises the importance of reducing the need to produce more glass so

reducing the emission of CO2 and triggering climate change. Using material already available reduces the amount of energy used by 95%. The campaign will include the

Demand for second Huge fire causes evacuation on Canary Isle referendum A fire in La Palma has forced 2,500 to flee their homes and will take 'several days' to bring under control. The raging inferno engulfing the Canarian island of La Palma continues to rage out of control and a 54-year-old forestry brigadier, Francisco Santana, was killed whilst tackling the blaze. The fire was caused by a German expat burning tissue. The culprit, aged 27, explained that he had defecated behind a hedge and then burnt the toilet paper he used afterwards, and the flames took hold of the tinder-box-dry mountainside within split seconds. Over 2,000 hectares – 20 million square metres, or 5,000 acres – have been destroyed in what has been described as the worst fire in the Canary Islands this century and the largest in La Palma in seven years. Around 700 residents have been

forced to flee their homes in the urbanisations of San Nicolás, Tacande and Jedey in the town of El Paso. A further 1,800 have been evacuated from four neighbourhoods in the nearby municipality of Fuencaliente de la Palma. Not only is the blaze way out of control, but maximum temperatures pushing 40ºC in the shade and increasingly-high winds mean the situation was thought to become more 'even more complex' before being brought under control. According to Canary Island regional president Fernando Clavijo, it could take ‘several days’ before the fire is contained and it is likely to keep spreading until then. As yet, it is not thought that the fire has destroyed the underground water pockets towards the east of the island,

and emergency services are pinning their hopes on a natural fire break made up of a wall of solidified lava and a string of dormant volcanoes. Clavijo announced that the forestry brigadier, Francisco José Santana Álvavez, was married with five children and had been working on wildfires for more than 20 years. He lost his life when he momentarily became separated from the rest of the squad, and his body was found minutes later. One of Francisco José's colleagues, Luis Baute Alvarado, said that fire-fighters and forestry brigadiers ‘put their lives on the line’ whenever they deal with an inferno. The clouds of smoke are now polluting the air in the nearby island of La Gomera, emergency services say. Over 200 ground workers and at least eight aircraft continue to fight the blaze.

Sir Richard Branson had calls for second EU referendum after a petition has gathered millions of signatures. The Virgin Group founder has implored people to add their names to the petition. The British businessman has called on the UK Parliament take a second look at the EU referendum after an online petition has resulted in almost four million signatures. The petition calls for a new rule to be implemented stating that polls with a majority under 60 percent and a turnout of less than 75 percent must be re-started. Branson said in his blog: “The decision over the UK’s future was based on false promises that pushed a minority of the UK’s total voting population (17 million out of 46 million) to vote the way it did. “Based on the misrepresentation

made by the Leave campaign, Parliament needs to take the petition of more than three million people to call for a new referendum seriously. The alternative is to watch a rapid decline of Britain’s health and wellbeing.” The Virgin Group founder has implored people to add their signatures to the petition, which has since gathered 3.6 million signatories. The government is duty-bound to address any petition that collects more than 100,000 votes, and it will set a date to discuss it in three days time. Meanwhile, an investigation into the viral petition has been launched following allegations that some of the names added could be fraudulent. It is thought people from abroad have been adding their signatures and that some are signing it more than once. Users online have pointed out that many expats live abroad and therefore have a right to sign it. However some 77,000 signatures were removed over the weekend. “People adding fraudulent signatures to this petition should know that they undermine the cause they pretend to support,” said lawmaker Helen Jones, who chairs the House of Commons petitions committee looking into the claims. The Leave campaign won with 52 percent of the vote on 23rd June.

Keep an eye on the sky August promises some of the most outstanding astronomical phenomena of recent years. Until the 23rd August budding astrologers can experience the meteor showers of the constellation of Aquarius, which peak at 16 meteors per hour and leave a brilliant streak in the sky for a few seconds. To be able to see them it is necessary to get away from the light pollution of towns - and to have a little patience. Luckily, as the Moon reached its new phase on the 2nd it is not interfering with observation of the Delta Aquarids.

disappear and this is the night when the first peak of the meteor shower will happen. This phenomenon can best be seen from the northern hemisphere because the constellation of Perseus will be visible from 10pm. Finally, August will see the conjunction of Venus and Jupiter. To be able to see the conjunction of both planets it will be vital to be punctual on 27th August and to have good visibility on the western horizon. Neither telescopes nor binoculars will be necessary as both planets will superimpose one another

Also this month the most famous meteor shower of the summer, the Perseids, is not to be missed because it promises to be the most intense of recent years. This is due to the fact that this year Jupiter diverted part of the current of particles from the comet that creates them towards the Earth, this means a staggering 160 meteors per hour should light up the night sky. Although it will be visible until August 24th, the night of the 11th will be the best for observing the Perseids from Spain. From about 2am the Moon will

producing a very bright object in the sky just after nightfall. Seen from the Earth, Jupiter will seem smaller than Venus, despite actually being much larger. The reason is that on this day Jupiter will be about three times farther away from us than Venus. Given its proximity to the Sun, to see the conjunction we will have to look just after the Sun disappears over the horizon and keep looking at this part of the sky until it gets darker. The two plantets wil emerge at about 8pm and will be hidden again about an hour later.

Children from the Sahara arrive The programme ‘holiday in peace’ is providing respite for 12 Saharan children in Torrevieja this year. Every year a number of children are placed here during the hottest summer months. They are taken in by host families as a result of the fund raising of the charity organisation FANS (Familias de Acogida de Niños Saharauis). The children have been given a selection of writing materials so that they can record their holiday in Spain. The mayor, José Manuel Dolón, thanked the families who are hosting the children and welcomed them all to the town hall on Thursday 4th August. He also noted the reason why the children are brought to the town. It is a very small recompense for the suffering placed on the people of the Sahara as a result of Spain’s role in making these children and their families refugees. In the 19th century, Spain was involved in the Western Sahara area but in 1975 Madrid handed the area over to Morocco and Mauritania. This resulted in a mass flight by Saharawi civilians who ended up in

different camps including in neighbouring countries such as Algeria. The children are brought to Torrevieja and other parts of the region during the two hottest months of the summer to

week, Carmen Pérez, president of FANS, noted how the children found even simple things to be a pleasure and how the things we take for granted fascinate them. ‘Going up in a lift, having a shower, the swimming

escape the stifling conditions in the camps. The children live in harsh and difficult conditions and are given medical care when they arrive here as well as being taken to different places in the town and having chance to enjoy the beach. During their visit to the town hall this

pool and above all, the sea. You see how they are amazed at these things through their faces.’ The intention is for more children to be given a holiday in future years. The children will remain with their host families until the 11th September. Suzanne O’Connell

WEEKLY EURO UPDATE The US dollar index – a measure of the value of the US dollar relative to the value of a basket of the other most activelytraded currencies – fell to its lowest level since July 5th following the release of weaker-than-expected GDP data on Friday. The US advance second quarter GDP growth came in at 1.2 percent, below the expected 2.6 percent; leading investors to question the likelihood of a Federal Reserve interest rate increase this year. The latest data detailing domestic economic performance in the post-Brexit period delivered – unsurprisingly – a downbeat message for the pound, which retreated in value against the euro and US dollar as a result. Expansion in Britain's manufacturing sector slowed up more than expected in July, as the sector expanded at its lowest pace in over three years, following the EU referendum. The manufacturing purchasing managers' index (PMI), dropped to 48.2 in July, from 52.4 in June. This was swiftly followed by the final reading of the UK services PMI for July came in at 47.4, down from 52.3 in June and in line with the flash reading two weeks ago. The composite index of services and manufacturing, which is closely watched by policymakers at the Bank of England, was lower than the initial estimate, down from 51.9 in June to 47.3; marking the lowest level since April 2009 and the biggest one month drop in the 20 year history of the survey. Confirming that the UK economy is slowing at its fastest rate

since the financial crisis, following the Brexit vote Sterling’s reaction was somewhat counter-intuitive; making gains against both the euro and US dollar. Such a move would normally be considered a wholly disproportionate reaction to pessimistic data. However, the PMI has catalysed a round of short-covering that was almost bound to take place ahead of the impending interest rate decision by the Bank of England. Bank of England (BoE) policy makers voted unanimously to cut interest rates for the first time since March 2009, taking the base rate to a new low of 0.25%. To call this loosening of monetary policy a forgone conclusion prior to the decision would have been an understatement; such was the need for post-Brexit economic stimulus. Other measures – all of which were more aggressive-than-expected – announced by the central bank that aim to do just that include buying £60bn of UK government bonds and £10bn of corporate bonds. This caused the pound to plunge against the euro and decline to its lowest level against the dollar since July 5th. In reducing its growth prediction for 2017 from the 2.3% it was expecting in May to 0.8% – its biggest growth forecast cut since it began making them in 1992 – the BoE also signalled that a "markedly" weaker growth outlook meant further cuts towards zero were likely in the coming months.

One of the handiest pieces of garden equipment is a leaf shredder / wood chipper. Even the smallest,and least expensive of these machines can reduce eight to ten bags of leaves down into one, and that is great news if you have a lot of leaves you need to deal with every year. But shredder-chippers do not only deal with leaves. They also make nutrient-rich green mulch from non-woody plant debris and weeds (that have not gone to seed), which can be added to flower beds and compost piles, and they make wood chips from twigs and branches that can be spread on walkways. Shredder-chippers are fast and dependable, easy to use, and they allow you to get your garden clean-up done quickly so you can get on to other important things you need to do, or would rather do! But delving into the world of shredders and chippers can be overwhelming. What horsepower should you get? What capacity will you need? Is electric better than gas powered?

Think about your needs Many gardeners think only about using a shredder or chipper in the autumn when all the leaves start to come down and cover everything. However, shredders and chippers can be used year-round: During the autumn months a shredder-chipper is a tool that is vital to help clean up and reduce the piles of leaves and debris into manageable and usable mulch or for addition to the compost pile. In the winter and early spring a chipper-shredder makes quick work of the branches and twigs from storms and seasonal pruning of dormant trees and shrubs. In the late spring and summer these machines easily chew through weeds and finished crops from the vegetable garden such as corn stalks and old tomato plants.

What is available Even though you can buy either a wood chipper or a leaf shredder independent of one another, most are designed to handle both kinds of work. They are available in a wide variety of sizes and most come with a range of accessories to help with other jobs around the garden. Their engines begin at the smaller end with lightweight electric models with less than 1 horsepower, and go up to large gasoline powered engines of 4 to 10 horsepower or more. More are coming onto the market all the time, and an increasing number of small to midsized machines offer the option of letting you rake leaves and other debris into a hopper at ground level or to vacuum leaves and debris right off the ground.

Making a choice Once you have figured out what kind of work you need to do most on your property, there are a few things to keep in mind to find the machine that will best suits your needs: If your main interest is in shredding leaves, pay attention to the types with vacuuming ability. These models suck leaves and material off the ground, shred it, and blow it into an attached collection bag. If you want to work in different locations on your property, make sure the machine you buy is mobile. An electric powered shredder-chipper usually weighs less than the gas powered machines, which is nice if you are going to have to move it a lot, but keep in mind it will also be hindered by the length of its extension cord. Gas models can be

moved and used anywhere, and they usually are much more powerful. The capacity of any shredder-chipper is measured by the maximum diameter of a branch that it can chip. Horsepower is a good indication of a machine's overall capacity - the higher the horsepower - the heavier the material it will be able to handle. Of course the price tag usually goes up accordingly! Also, compare the width and depth of the shredding hopper and the diameter of the chipping chute - the larger the better. It is usually in your best interests to avoid the least expensive machines because their mechanical quality is sometimes doubtful, and because of their limited capacity. You are better off buying a machine with slightly more capacity than you think you will need in order to avoid overloading the engine and the hopper. In the end it will save you time and money.

Safety features Whatever shredderchipper you buy, make sure

to operate it safely. Always check the chutes and hoppers before starting it up to make sure no gloves, tools, or golf balls have accidentally fallen in. Avoid wearing baggy clothes to avoid getting anything caught in the machine and always wear long sleeves, gloves, ear protection and goggles because small bits of debris can fly out of the hopper at high speeds. Also, do not overfeed your chippershredder. The model type will tell you the maximum size of branch you can feed in. Most machines made for the homeowner will chip a branch up to two or three inches (5 to 7.5 cm) in diameter. Save the big branches for

your fireplace. Most problems happen when too much debris is pushed down the chute or too many rocks are fed in, but those are two easily avoided problems. And it may sound silly, but always keep your body, especially your head, clear of openings in case the machine kicks back some debris. Lastly, make sure to use the tamper that is made for the purpose of pushing foliage and debris into the machine, do not use your hand. If the shredderchipper becomes clogged, turn it off first, then clear the problem. Marc Vijverberg

Welcome to BOTSWANA with Vivalia Travel Botswana is a land-locked country located in Southern Africa and bordering on Namibia, South Africa, Zimbabwe and Zambia.

otswana is famous for its wildlife, areas like the Chobe National Park, Moremi National Park in the Okavango Delta and the Central Kalahari Game Reserve have a very high concentration of game. The bulk of the Kalahari desert falls within Botswana's borders and Botswana is home to most of the world's San (bushman) population. The economy, one of the most robust on the continent, is dominated by diamond mining and tourism. As a tourist destination, Botswana has traditionally opted for a high price / low numbers formula, in part as a conservation strategy, and also to differentiate itself from

neighbouring tourist countries who follow a mass market tourism policy. However, that isn't to say that Botswana is an expensive high end destination. In many respects costs and quality compare to neighbouring South Africa. However the two jewels in Botswana's tourism crown (the Okavango delta and Chobe National Park) are quite exclusive, although there are budget options. THINGS TO SEE AND DO Wildlife is Botswana's main draw. Wildlife parks compose nearly one-fifth of the country. In these parks you will find lions, cheetahs, crocodiles, hippos, elephants, antelope, wild dogs, and hundreds of

species of birds. Among southern Africa's most impressiveâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and popularâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;wildlife destinations is the Okavango Delta where the Okavango River widens into the world's largest inland delta. Lying in the middle of the arid Kalahari, the swamps and water channels attract animals from thousands of kilometers around and triples in size during floods in July and August. Nearby Chobe National Park has a large population of elephants and it's also easy to spot many of Africa's well-known species, especially zebras and lions. Unfortunately, most of the native tribes in Botswana only dress in traditional outfits and perform rituals for tourists.

‘You Can’t Be Serious’ is a weekly tongue in cheek look at the world through Bernie Comaskey’s eyes. With kind permission of the Westmeath Examiner. bernie.comaskey@gmail.com

So where does the Irish language go from here…?

hy is it that the vast majority of Irish people cannot carry on a conversation in our native tongue? You can number me among that majority – and I regret that fact now. I have seen people come to Spain and learn Spanish in six months, and yet I spent ten years learning Irish in school and I struggle to sustain the most basic verbal exchange. I believe I know the principal reason for this historical ignorance, but times have changed and the nation’s approach needs to change. The old adage of using it or losing it is very apt here. The Irish language underpins everything that we are as a country. Our culture is built on its heritage and even the few words we use in everyday language can on their own set us apart. I didn’t always feel this way about the language. I used use my soap-box to proclaim that Irish was a dead language and we should be learning French, Spanish or

German instead. I was wrong. The older I get the more I appreciate the importance of Irish – and even when I was denying its relevance, deep down, I admired people who spoke it. Mrs Youcantbeserious is a mṹinteṑir and naturally she has a working knowledge of the language I remember New York airport in December of 1968 and I was on my way home from a couple of years work in Canada. There was a group of people seeing off family members, obviously going home for Christmas. They were all speaking Irish and I called over Joe Mulhare to listen and bask in this bond if Irishness. I got that same tingle recently outside the cathedral in Mullingar. It was the sad occasion of the funeral of my good friend, Gerry Walsh, RIP, and it just seemed so fitting that two people behind me were conversing in Irish. There are so many abiding memories from the joyful Westmeath exploits of 2004, and

one of those is how we had our own great gaelgoir in Seamus O’ Faolain to make Ấrd Rỉ Paidỉ feel right at home in his new midland kingdom. On a busy Sunday, some fifteen years ago, we were flat out in my Spanish pub. I was collecting empty glasses when I came face to face with government minister, Eamon O’ Cuiv, TD. I never more longed for a bit of Irish – but it just wouldn’t come. The Connolly brothers from Galway were also regulars in Paddy’s Point. We became friends, but I always envied those minority of ‘randoms’ they would meet who could engage in the craic and the banter ‘through the medium’. What I’m saying is that there is something very uplifting in listening to our own unique language being spoken. Think of the affect it had on the entire population when her majesty, Queen Elizabeth, uttered the words, ‘ A Uachtarain agus a chairde’ on her visit to Ireland. The country fell in love with her. Same thing when

President Obama said, ‘Is feidir linn’. Those two great heads of state showed the height of respect for our language, so why don’t we all do the same? Sometimes when I used be searching my brain for a Spanish word, out of the blue and from somewhere deep inside me … buried there for 60 years, the Irish word would surface. It is part of what we are. My theory is that while we were taught Irish in school, a love of the language was never included in most schools. Although my mother – a very brainy woman, would talk Irish to us at home, we were led to believe that learning Irish was a waste of time. Most parents resented their kids being taught Irish (especially via the cane) and I believe the reason for this was the level of emigration. ‘The Irish won’t be much use to him when he hits the boat’ … and similar comments were heard every day.

Between 1931 and 1941, four out of every five children born in Ireland left the country: Read that line again. It wasn’t much better, if it all, when I went to national school in the 1950’s. In 1956, fifty thousand Irish emigrated – mostly to England and America. The heart-broken parents at home felt bitter and some of this despondency was taken out on our language. They did not realise that sometimes it was of great comfort to those emigrants – as I observed in New York half a century ago. What those with the power really need to do, is cultivate and nurture a love of Irish. Make us proud of having our own language. That will be enough: The rest will follow – nobody knows where, but it will be ceart go leor.

Is feider linn!

Five people die in two days on Valencian beaches According to the Generalitat Valenciana almost all those losing their lives are men over 65 years old with heart conditions. Although not all the causes of death have been determined, it appears that the majority are the result of heart attacks whilst in the water or shortly after coming out of the water. The profile of the swimmer most likely to die on the valencian beach is that of an older man of 65 years plus who is at cardiovascular risk. He may already have had a heart attack, have diabetes or hypertension. This type of case is much less likely to be a women and happens less often in swimming pools. The first of the six deaths was on Wednesday 3rd August in Vinaròs in Castellón in the north of the community. The deceased was a 62 year old man who, according to the Centro de Información y Coordinación de Urgencias (CICU), was taken ill after 10am. He was attended by SAMU (Servicio de Ayuda Médica Urgente) but they could not save his life. A few minutes later in Gandia, a woman of 70 years old died after becoming unconscious in the water. Neither the lifeguards nor SAMU could resuscitate her. At midday a man of 75 years old died on Levante beach in Benidorm

whilst bathing. On Thursday 4th August just after 10am a man died whilst in the water off the Torrenostra beach in the town of Torreblanca. CICU did not indicate his exact age but only that he was of advanced years. One hour afterwards another man of 76 years died whilst bathing in the beach del Puerto de Sagunto in Valencia. In Benicàssim, on the beach of Heliópolis, a man of 79 collapsed whilst in the water. According to the town hall, the deceased suffered a heart attack close to the shore and was brought rapidly out of the water by another bather. Another fatality

happened last Sunday on the 31st July when a 48 year old died in Castellón, probably as a result of cardiac problems. On Monday 1st August the local police in Jávea, Alicante, fined two bathers for entering the water when the red flag was flying. The bathers had been warned by megaphone on the popular beach of el Arenal. Sanctions for this can total as much as 750 euros. The same Monday lifeguards had to intervene several times in order to rescue bathers on the Jávea beaches because of strong waves. Suzanne O’Connell

TOTEM ANIMAL MEANINGS

Everyone has an animal spirit guide Power animals are also known as Totem animals or spirit animal guides. Everyone has a main animal guide, although just like spirit guides, different ones will come and go throughout your life especially if you need extra help 'from above', When you call upon the angels for help, they will always find a way to show you that they have heard your prayers, and sending an animal spirit guide is one of them! I know that your next question will be "What is my angel animal guide"? To give you an idea, I have included some of the animals that you may have seen. If yours is a more unusual one, or not found here, I recommend the book 'Animal Spirit Guides an easy to use handbook' by Steven Farmer. It covers the majority of animals from the spirit world and I refer to this book time and time again whenever I repeatedly come across a particular animal bird or insect. Spiritual growth If you are starting off on your spiritual path, your animal guide will grow with you and this is often denoted through meditation. For example, when teaching Spiritual Development, one of my students, Andy, kept seeing a little fawn in his meditations. Because he is a burly 'mans man' he was a bit

disappointed that he hadn't seen a great big bear, a lion, or a tiger. I had to laugh because I knew that as he developed, the little deer would grow with him, and surely enough, weeks into his course, he eventually saw a majestic stag resplendent with horns! Totem Animal meanings I can't include every animal here, but over the next 2 or 3 weeks I will add more so you can see which animal guide is working with you on your spiritual path. A TO B Alligators/Crocodiles: Birth/death cycle, new chapter in life & the death of the old chapter. Adaptability/survival & transformation.. Antelope: New opportunities coming your way, heightened psychic ability and the need to protect yourself and come out of hiding. Ass: Inner wisdom, humility, patience, going with the flow & reaching personal goals. The Ass is the totem animal of the Egyptian God Set. Badger The start of a new chapter in your life. A good storyteller or writer of stories. Strong intuition seeing beneath the surface of

situations/people. You are comfortable in your own skin in most situations.. Bat: Guardian of the night, change/transformation, rebirth, trust, strong instincts. Very perceptive & many blessings. Bear: You are confident, assertive with a strong presence. Bears hibernate in the winter, which may explain their association with "dreaming the Great Spirit". The symbolism of the Bear's cave means returning to the womb of Mother Earth. protection, the need to nurture not just others, but yourself. Beaver: Team player, builder of dreams. Emotions, resourceful, organised and focused. A time to build upon those long-awaited dreams. BEE Industrious, focused and committed. Successful at all you do. Be careful not to sting others too harshly with your words. When you give others your loving attention, they blossom and open up to you. Blackbird: You are being asked to let go of your inhibitions. Archangel Uriel is with you watching out for you and helping you to connect with Nature. The blackbird indicates that you will follow your true spiritual path. Let go of all inhibitions, singing as a healing benefit. Bluebird: Work and play hard. Speaking at the right moment and saying the right thing. Easy going, never intimidating others but you will stand up for yourself when the need arises.

Look for chances to touch joy in your life by opening up all your senses and enjoying every moment. Bull: Fertility, prosperity, wealth, potency, beneficence, strength, power, courage, stamina, sexuality. The bull is connected with the astrological sign Taurus. Butterflies: Lighten up and don't take things so seriously. A beautiful omen denoting transformation, - a beautiful symbol of joy colour, lightness and change in life. The butterfly awakens us to dance on the winds of life.

PAUL O’GRADY’S ANIMAL ORPHANS ITV – 10.00 pm Paul O'Grady returns for a second series in which he visits South Africa, Zambia and Namibia on the trail of young orphaned animals. Paul's first stop is Moholoholo Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre. Here they are raising an eightmonth-old orphaned rhinoceros called Olive, whose mother was killed by poachers - 1,000 rhinos are killed for their horns every year. At Na'ankuse, a wildlife sanctuary in Namibia, Paul meets the owner Marlice, who introduces him to some of the resident animals - including a ten-month-old aardvark called Parkie, the strangest creature Paul has ever seen. He also meets Shrinky, a baby baboon who staff member Colette is caring for around the clock. Shrinky arrived in a terrible state, wounded and scarred, and Colette fears she might be brain damaged and have a serious problem with her sight. Finally, Paul has to serve ice lollies made of antelope blood to a lion cub called Nala.

This episode meets 12 five-year-olds. Drawing on the experience of their first year at school, these children have expanded their vocabularies, are learning how to make friends, and are beginning to get to grips with wider concepts like morality and identity. One of their main priorities is their emerging sense of the group, and finding their place within it. Jaja struggles with disappointment when a dance competition doesn't go her way. When venting her frustration leaves her out in the cold, she learns a valuable lesson in self-control. George starts the week on the sidelines; can he conquer his fear of group activities to find a place among his peers? Alfie has a vivid imagination, but taking others along on his flights of fancy doesn't come easily to a boy who isn't interested in his peers' ideas. A disagreement with George over what the sun is made of ends in an insult demonstrating how linguistically advanced five-year-olds can be: 'my dear old fish, go and boil your head.'

Meat free day People all over the world are trying to go meat free for one day, with meat-free-Monday being the new food fad to sweep the globe. However, environmental concerns may mean we should all be considering the choice permanently. According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO), in 2012 the United Kingdom ranked 22nd for meat consumption per person. We consumed on average 85.8 kilograms per person per year. Of this amount 22 kg was estimated to be beef, 27.9kg was pork, 29.2kg was poultry and 6.1kg was mutton and goat. According to the FAO, 40 per cent of the food grown in the world today is feed for animals, and it says that figure is likely to increase to 60 per cent in the next 20 years with the emergence of an expanding global middle class who can afford to eat more meat and dairy. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development estimates that we are at a low point in our consumption of meat globally, following the financial crisis of 2007. However, the cost of meat may not be the only reason we should consider taming our carnivorous taste buds.

Our meat consumption also affects the environment, as government targets for methane reduction are burdened by the agriculture sectors need to cater to demand for methane producing animals. Global efforts to reduce methane have been prioritised more and more in recent years as our issue with consumption becomes more apparent. In January of last year the White House announced targets to cut methane emissions from the oil and gas sector by 40-45 per cent, and encouraged farmers to use biodigesters to capture and use methane emissions from agricultural waste. Methane emissions are dropping on the whole - this year we will produce 47.86 million metric tons of methane equivalent to carbon dioxide but our passion for meat means that agriculture is still the slowest sector in terms of methane reductions. 23 percent of the planetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arable land is taken up with beef cattle. In 2010, the UKs Department of Energy and Climate Change reported that agriculture had surpassed waste management as the sector producing the highest amounts of methane, due to slower reductions than any other sector.

Meanwhile in 2015, the agriculture sector dominates more and more of the methane emissions pie â&#x20AC;&#x201C; nearly half of our total emissions. In 2014, a YouGov survey for Eating Better Alliance revealed that over a third of people in the UK (35 percent) report they are willing to eat less meat, with one-in-five (20 percent) saying they had cut back in the last year. This is not simply to do with environmental or monetary concerns either, as there are health benefits to lowering meat intake. Red and processed meat consumption are associated with colon cancer. Evidence compiled in hundreds of studies suggest that diets with high fruits and vegetable intakes may reduce cancer risk. Consumption of these meats is also associated with increases in total mortality, cancer mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality. Eating less meat is a simple way to eat healthily and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better for the environment too.

RESALE HOME PRICES ARE ON THE RISE! Rebecca Serwotka – Your favourite local property expert, of Inmobiliaria Real Estate Agents in Ciudad Quesada.

hanks to this wonderful part of Spain we live in, La Comunidad Valenciana has registered a resale house price increase of 1.3% in the month of July. Prices have risen in seven of the seventeen communities, however the biggest drop was recorded in four provinces, one being our closest neighbours in Murcia, which fell behind at -1%. Alicante province had a registered price increase of 1.7%. General price per square metre in Spain as a whole, is €1,530 after suffering a decline of 0.1%. The Bank of Spain have confirmed the Euribor has fallen in July to an average rate of less than 0.056% from 0.028% in June. Making it six consecutive months of negative rates and recorded a fall of 0,223 points from 1.167% of which the

Euribor marked in July 2015. Meaning, an average mortgage of €100,000 with a repayment term of 25 years, which is reviewed in August, will be reduced by about €10.14 per month or approximately €121.68 per year. Although these figures may not mean much to many homeowners or investors, it does mean that our area is still going strong, and with the Spanish banks offering great deals on Mortgages I’m sure any savvy property buyer should snap up these deals before they start to disappear. More facts and figures: 73.5% of the Valencian residents live in their own purchased home with 16.9% in rented accommodation. 30.4% live in the same municipality as where they were born with 9.6% living outside of Spain. On average the

Valencian’s live approximately 246kms from where they were born and have a 50km journey to and from their place of work. A lucky 49.6% have never changed where they reside due to their job. Even amongst Spanish nationals, 78.8% believe that owning a property instead of renting will always remain the best plan for their future. When property become scarce, we will all see asking prices go up. Like anything else, it’s all down to supply and demand. If people demand it, buyers want more of it! Think property? Think us, because life’s complicated enough! See our advert in the centre pages of this newspaper. www.homes4u.es

A Grand Celebration Rescue centre battling critical funds shortage of Dance Fresh from receiving their awards from the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dance and International Dance Teachers Association, it was time for the students of Footwork Dance Studios to focus on their summer show Viva La Danza and do what they love to do - perform. Having gained a reputation for excellence over the past years, the show gave all the students from the youngest, at just 18 months old, to the adults, just a little bit older, an opportunity to showcase

their talents and entertain the sell-out audience. From the moment the show opened with the youngest students, the audience were thrilled with a variety of dances, including jazz, tap, ballet and modern dance. An outstanding feature of this production was the quality and detail of the costumes. Along with a number of new routines the students performed some old favourites, such as British and Lord of the Dance. Once again highlighting

how much talent there is in this area of the Costa Blanca. Thanks go to the audience for their generosity which resulted in a donation of 400 euros to be made to the needy of Montesinos. Footwork, believes that dance is for everyone and it is never too late to start. There are lots of different classes for all ages and abilities, so if you fancy treading the boards or would just like a bit of exercise meeting up with likeminded people contact Erica on 662003823 or e-mail:

An Alicante-based equine rescue centre has managed to rescue a pony found wandering by Almoradí's sports centre while battling a critical funds shortage caused by the sudden serious illness of one of its horses. Easy Horse Care Rescue Centre co-founders Sue and Rod Weeding were called out to rescue the pony on Monday (July 25) by Almoradí police. Sue said: “We're extremely impressed by the way local police acted with this case – they asked for the pony's age, breed and condition to note in their report and also brought a microchip reader with them, although it turned out the pony wasn't chipped. “Eight years ago, this would never have happened. Almoradi should be proud of its new young police force and their stance on animal welfare.” The rescue came as the centre struggled to pay the mounting veterinarian bills for a two-yearold foal named Lily, who suffered a stable injury in which foul play could not be ruled out. X-rays revealed Lily is suffering from a fractured vertebrae that may leave her permanently disabled. The injury is believed to have been caused by a severe impact to her neck one night while she was in her stable, which

came as the centre suffered a string of break-ins. Since the initial incident on July 1, Lily's condition has gone from bad to worse. Blood tests revealed Lily was suffering from tick fever, but she continued to deteriorate despite treatment and was rushed to the Hospital Veterinario San Vicente (Alicante horse hospital) on July 22. “We’re obviously very worried and devastated that Lily is still so unwell. Veterinarians were unable to save her mother two years ago – she died just six weeks after Lily’s birth – but we dearly hope they can save our girl,” Sue said. “It’s hugely expensive for us to send a horse to hospital, but we know Lily needs the best possible specialist care right now, so somehow we will find the money to cover it. “It’s a continual battle though and we really need help. If you would like to donate to help cover Lily’s mounting vet bills, we would be so grateful.” Donations can be made online at easyhorsecare.net/donate. Regular updates on Lily's condition are being posted on the EHC Facebook page. The Easy Horse Care Rescue Centre relies entirely on donations to fund its important animal welfare work, including the feeding and care of the

centre’s more than 90 horses, ponies and donkeys rescued from abuse, neglect and abandonment. Donations of cash or items for the centre’s network of seven charity shops across the Alicante province are gratefully welcomed. A pick-up service is available to collect large donated items such as furniture and each shop also offers a delivery service for large items purchased instore. Anyone interested in making a donation, becoming a long-term sponsor, or volunteering at the rescue centre or in the charity shops can call Sue on 652 021 980. The Easy Horse Care Rescue Centre, located just outside Rojales at Partido Lo Garriga, 59, opens to the public on the first Sunday of every month between 1pm and 4pm. A free horse tour with centre co-founder Rod Weeding begins at 2pm and refreshments are available in the café. For more details and directions, please visit www.easyhorsecare.net.

Benefits of the most popular summer drinks When the heat increases so does the amount of liquids we consume and we don’t just drink water to quench our thirst. There are a variety of beverages to which we turn to hydrate and enjoy throughout the day in our leisure time with family and friends. But many of us don’t know how the most popular summer drinks can contribute and benefit our health. Beer, one of the most widely consumed beverages in Spain, lowers the

or cholesterol. However, the consumption of these products should not abused because, although they have no fat, they have significant amounts of sugar. "The absence of fat and cholesterol in your composition can be a positive for people with high blood cholesterol levels who want to indulge occasionally. However, it is important that the consumption of these products occurs sporadically to avoid excess sugar in the diet, "advises Dr.

risk of developing cardiovascular disease by increasing good cholesterol (HDL) and polyphenols, protects against neurodegenerative diseases and improves bone health because it contains silicon. It also has an anti-inflammatory and antibiotic thanks to hops, one of its essential components effect. It is also highly recommended for athletes, Carolina Perez, nutritionist at Quirónsalud Hospital Torrevieja, "consumption of a moderate amount of beer after intense activity regains rapid rehydration and helps prevent muscle aches. Beer for its taste, aroma and being carbonated more so served cold, is accepted better than water in situations where thirst is not present, as it is 2% of dehydration that compromises performance sports but it is not significant enough to combat thirst." Slush, one of the most popular summer drinks, a cold drink served while still crystallized. Sorbet, however, is halfway between slush and ice cream it contains less fat than ice cream, but more sugar. The main component of the slush is water, whose presence represents about 85-90% of its composition. Therefore, its calorie content is not very high, is around 60-70 calories per 100 milliliters. In its preparation no fats are used (unlike ice creams), so no added fat

Honorio Martinez, a specialist in Sports Medicine Hospital Quirónsalud Zaragoza. Another irresistible drink is horchata, consumed in two versions, liquid and slush, the basic ingredients are water, tiger nuts and sugar. Horchata is a rich sugary energy drink with healthy fats, "highly recommended for all ages but especially for patients with cardiovascular disease who do not suffer from being overweight," says Dr. Carina Gimeno, nutritionist at the Obesity Unit Hospital Quirónsalud Valencia. "It also has a significant calcium content, much needed during periods of breastfeeding, pregnancy and growth in children." It is low in sodium and high in potassium which makes it very suitable for hypertensive patients. It aids in the recovery of diarrheal diseases for its astringent properties and having no cholesterol, gluten or lactose, is suitable for those with intolerances. "However, horchata is not advisable for diabetic patients because of its high sugar content," says Dr. Gimeno. Gazpacho, another one of the kings of summer, retains all the nutritional benefits of each and every one of its ingredients without suffering any degradation by heat that is caused by cooking "Vitamin C in peppers and tomato, vitamin E in the Tomato’s and

extra virgin olive oil, antioxidants such as lycopene from tomatoes, vitamins for summer sun and also takes care of our skin, "lists nutritionist Carolina Perez. It is full of fiber, which promotes intestinal transit and promotes cleansing of our body. Also it contains minerals such as phosphorus, iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, potassium and sodium. That is why gazpacho is regarded as an isotonic drink because of its water content and mineral salts. Gazpacho also helps reduce blood pressure.

"Consumption of the main natural ingredients of gazpacho is linked to a reduction in blood pressure. Hypertension is a condition that affects 25% of the adult population and is the main risk factor for heart attacks and strokes. Finally, another soft drink that is experiencing a boom, especially among athletes are sports drinks, which promote athletic performance and quickly help replenish losses caused by intense exercise. Its contribution in water

prevents dehydration, the concentration of carbohydrates (6-8%) is effective to maintain fluid balance, provide energy, maintain blood glucose levels and accelerate the absorption of water. Electrolytes help maintain fluid balance, nerve function and muscle contraction. "While many experts agree that if exercise lasts less than an hour, even in intense and warm atmosphere, it is sufficient to hydrate by drinking water before, during and after exercise," says the specialist in sports medicine.

As most of us have family over and are probably eating our fair share of junk food this week we are going to take a peek at what is best for our burger dressings and what’s worst. Try guessing first before you read the answer, you might be surprised at some of the answers. We can at least then make a few tiny healthy choices. MAYO no not very good unless you make it at home yourself. Only healthy mayo o is if you can find 100% olive oil instead of soyabean oil. MUSTARD YES it’s a healthy condiment. No added sugar, mustard seed is healthy and has lots of antioxidants including tumeric KETCHUP yes, if it is made form fresh tomatoes. Bought ketchup has a high sugar content so its OK but don’t go mad! GUCAMOLE Yes lots of healthy fats, lots of fibre, plenty of vitamins and minerals, great! BBQ SAUCE not good high in sugar and not much tomato best give it a miss! HUMMUS Best with olive oil but made from chickpeas, tahini, garlic and lemon. If you are having a picnic try sticks of carrot, cucumber let the children dig in for a healthy , fun snack. FAT FREE SALAD DRESSING no as again they contain loads of sugar to make up for little fat. Best is made

with olive oil but not wonderful for us SALSA Yes salsa is vegetables so its hard to go wrong. However a word of caution, not with corn chips as they are fried in refined oil, which is bad.

PESTO Yes its fine. Pesto is a mix of garlic, pine nuts, basil, olive oil, It’s a healthy choice and goes great on sandwiches, meat and even eggs, go on give this a try its delicious.

Melanie via email asks: Hello Aunty, I received an email from a good friend of mine saying they were stuck in Florida and has been robbed of their purse and passport and that the British Embassy would not help so could we wire some money? I immediately sussed it was a scam as my friend wasn’t in Florida as he was sitting right next to me and he’s an ex paratrooper that doesn’t carry a purse! It looks like this same email has gone out to about 50 of his friends and in the end he was advised to change his email address to Gmail as Hotmail was more often targeted by criminals. I also have a Hotmail email address so should

I change over before this happens? I have Windows Vista and use Avast so is this adequate security? Aunty Says: Hello Melanie. I don´t know if Microsoft’s Hotmail is technically any more vulnerable than Google’s Gmail but the spammers and hackers do seem to favour Hotmail and Outlook. I personally think Gmail has far better spam protection and it is certainly easier to fix if you run into any problems. Avast is OK but you should also install, and regularly scan, with the free Malwarebytes. I would also suggest finding a way to upgrade from Windows Vista (even if it means a new computer)

lose all of my photos. Aunty Says: Hi Stan. This looks like some of your Windows system files have been damaged. I can see you are running Windows 7 so you may be lucky as the good old ‘Safe Mode’ option is still available. Just as you switch on your PC, continually tap the F8 key and you should see an option to go into Safe Mode. This will load a chunky looking & cut down version of Windows that will often auto repair itself and you should also be able to copy your photos to a USB stick. Let me know how you get on.

the upload speed was 0.71Mb. Firstly what is the difference between upload and download speeds and should they be so far apart? Aunty Says: Hello Mary. The download speed is the speed you are able to read data from the Internet, i.e. loading webpages, opening emails or watching TV or videos and 4.44Mb per second is low but sadly average for Spain. The upload speed is the speed you can transfer data onto the Internet and 0.71 is a bit low, but again is quite normal for Spain. A low upload speed may cause problems when you are using a webcam during Skype etc.

as Vista is slowly following XP to the knackers yard. Stan via email asks: Hello Aunty. Every week on our Urb just outside Dolores our electric cuts out for about a second and the last time it did this, when I switched my PC back on it, shows a message "Windows failed to start” and gives me a couple of options (picture attached) neither of which work. I have been planning on treating myself to a new laptop but I was hoping to get all of my photos from my PC. Is there an easy fix for this? I’m not a complete novice with computers but I hate to make things any worse and

Mary from Orihuela asks: Hi Aunty, I read an article a while back about internet speeds so had a look on www.speedtest.net but I´m not sure I understand the results. My download speed was 4.44Mb and

Well that’s all folks, email me your problems to auntyvirus@costablancapeople.c om and I will see what I can do.

Business Profile

The Computer Company in La Marina We have become so reliant on our computers, tablets and smartphones it is sometimes very difficult to imagine living without them. However most of us are not experts and need good solid professional advice and help when it comes to either buying new equipment or having someone reliable we can trust if things go wrong. The personal touch really helps and it is also a real benefit when you are looking for a new computer or tablet if you can actually see and touch real life examples rather than look at pictures in a catalogue. The Computer Company with premises on Calle Dublin on the La Marina urbanisation always has a range of computers and tablets for customers to have a look at and be advised which might best suit their requirements. The Computer Company has the largest display of English laptop computers on the Costa Blanca. When you buy a

machine from the Computer Company it comes complete with software ready to go and whether it’s an English laptop or a tower PC the Computer Company can provide them both. They will even build you a computer to your specification if you need something slightly different. They will also transfer your documents from your old machine if you have one to your new machine completely free of charge. The Computer Company in La Marina is a well-established business operating from a shop on this popular urbanisation for 10 years. The ownership of the business changed hands last year and is now owned by Nick Cammidge and his father also named Nick. The younger Nick has been working as a technician with the computer company for seven years now and his father comes to the business with an extensive background in sales and marketing.

Along with new and occasionally refurbished computers the Computer Company stocks a range of accessories including printers and inks, cables and much more, and if they don’t have it in stock they can usually get it very quickly in 24 hours from their suppliers. Even the most reliable computers can sometimes need maintenance and when that happens most of us are looking for a company that will carry out effective repairs in as short a time as possible so that we can get our computers back for emailing, Skype and all the other functions that we use them for nowadays. The Computer Company prides itself on high levels of customer service and they are aware of how important computers are to most of their customers. They are organised with a proper booking system and a dedicated workshop and can turn most repairs around in a few days rather than several weeks.

Incidentally alongside computers the computer company can also provide mobile phone top ups and unlocking. The computer company is open Monday to Friday between 10.00 am and

5.00 pm and on Saturday between 10.00 am and 2.00 pm. You can telephone them on 966 796 882 or email them at adsl@computers-spain.com.

New 2017 Honda Civic takes shape Honda is looking to hog the limelight at the Paris Motoe Show as it rolls out an allnew, more powerful and even faster version of its legendary Civic Type R. Even though the current model – limited to 2,500 models in the UK – only launched last year, the manufacturer will preview the next Type R with a concept in France, and the production version will then make its way into showrooms in next September. The concept will make its

debut on the show stand version of the all-new 10th-generation hatch. One of the key areas the new Type R will address is the styling. Honda will attempt to broaden the appeal of the hot hatch with a more subtle design instead of the current model’s divisive, extreme look. The most obvious change will be the deletion of the rear wing, while a softer front bumper and back diffuser will also come in.

Nissan BladeGlider prototype unveiled in Rio As the rest of the world gears up for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, Nissan has been busy mating the all-electric Leaf to its ZEOD RC Le Mans racer. The result is a working prototype of the Nissan BladeGlider - an all-electric sport car. The BladeGlider, which was unveiled in Brazil ahead of the Olympic opening ceremony, attempts to blur the perceived disparity between alternatively powered cars and driving pleasure. It’s a development of the same-named concept that first shown at the 2013 Tokyo Auto Show – and Nissan is calling it ‘high performance in a revolutionary sports car design.’ The prototype is meant to demonstrate the future technologies expected in the sports car market. Energy is stored by a five-module 220kW lithiumion battery. Power is transmitted to the tarmac through the rear wheels, which are driven individually by 130kW electric motors. The BladeGlider should be capable of 0-62mph in less than 5 seconds, reputedly, and run on to a top speed in excess of 118mph. Nissan has developed the BladeGlider in

partnership with Renault, which won backto-back Formula E-constructors championships and returned to Formula One as a factory team, and Williams Advanced Engineering – which added further to the wealth of F1 and Formula E experience. For motorsport fans the familiarity doesn’t end there. Cast your mind back to 2013 and you may remember the messy divorce between the team behind the pioneering DeltaWing and Nissan’s ZEOD RC – but that hasn’t stopped Nissan from taking inspiration from much of the DeltaWing’s design ethos. The prototype features a a narrow front track and tapered front end, which flows rearwards into strongly defined hips. The aim of the design is to massively increase the efficiency of the airflow, by cutting drag, in the aid of boosting performance and handling. Is it as funky inside as it is outside? The interior cherry-picks from some of motorsport’s finest creations. The threeseater layout with the passenger seats outboard of a central driving position is

Time for change – the N332 It’s long been debated and as the number of crashes and incidents rise, the mayor of Torrevieja, José Manuel Dolón, is getting behind the campaign too. Those people who are forced to use the N332 as it passes through Torrevieja consider the situation as unacceptable, particularly in the summer. The mayor is seeking help to address the issue of the traffic jams and congestion that marks this section of the

road. It is both ‘dangerous and desperate’ for those drivers who are forced to use it says Dolón. It also harms the economic activity of the town. The mayor has written to the Dirección Provincial de Tráfico, to the Centro de Gestión de Tráfico de Valencia and to the Dirección General in Madrid. He has requested ‘the urgent need to take action to relieve the situation on the N332 that year after year leads to countless

instantly relatable to the McLaren F1. Wheelmounted displays show the state of charge, level of regenerative braking and traction control setting. The latter gives further signaling of Nissan’s driver focus for the car. The BladeGlider packs a torquevectoring system to eliminate mid-corner under-steer. Setup options for this include an ‘Agile’ setting, presumably for optimal handling, and even a Ford Focus RSinspired ‘Drift’ mode – which will no doubt do wonders for the range of this electric sports car. Either side of the wheel are screens that relay the video feed of two rear-view cameras, which replace the conventional door mirrors in an effort to make the BlideGlider as slippery as possible. Intelligent mobility Nissan and Renault CEO Carlos Ghosn said: ‘These prototypes epitomise Nissan’s drive to expand its Intelligent Mobility philosophy, where driving pleasure combines with environmental respon-sibility. Nissan believes that enthusiasts should look forward to a zero emission future and BladeGlider is a queues, kilometres of backlog and a generally dangerous state of affairs.’ The mayor asks that this stretch of road needs to be widened urgently to create two lanes as there is on either side of it. The mayor looks to other organisations in and around the town to support his requests. The situation that N332 commuters find themselves in, is nothing new. For years this part of the road has been debated and various administration have failed to get to grips with its widening. Suzanne O’Connell

Five for Ibiza Full of excitement and expectation, after weeks of meeting and planning, the famous five were ready to organise the jam sandwiches and pop needed for their summer adventure. No, not a new Enid Blyton Famous Five story, but the yachts, Lotti, Berti, Ganty, Gemini J and Baltic Moon and their 18 crew from the SAMM Cruising Group on their trip to Ibiza and Formentera. Instead of jam sandwiches and pop, each boat packed aboard enough groceries for four people on a two week sail. The plan was to sail the 62 miles to Calpe on 8th June and cross to the islands on 9th June in flotilla. Once there, each boat could go its own way until the return crossing. The first day went well, the next morning was when the ‘the plan’ went wrong. Ganty’s engine would not start and Baltic Moon had battery problems so they were stuck for the day. Lotti, Berti and Gemini J weighed anchor at 5am to find the bay blocked by a large fishing fleet but managed to find a way through to start their crossing. Oh the joys of boating! The highlight of the day was a encountering a pod of about 30 dolphins. They spent 20 minutes around the boats, diving under, swimming on their backs and leaping clear of the water, a great experience. Luckily, Ganty and Moon made it across the following day and from then on everybody had a great time visiting some lovely bays and meeting in San Antonio for a meal to celebrate one skipper’s birthday. After the meal the adventurous ones stayed out to see some of San Antonio’s infamous night life, rolling home in the early hours.

Some of the highlights were seeing weddings on the beach, obviously popular on Ibiza, and examples of how the rich and famous live. One evening a massive super yacht anchored so its helicopter could land. On another, a different super yacht was guided in to a safe anchorage after dark by its tender. There was some great sailing, lovely moonlit nights at anchor and a chance for some to visit different places while ashore. After 10 days Ganty telephoned to say they had crossed back early because of the forecast. The next day Gemini J

Berti from the stern of a power boat, a clear example of the need to be aware of a boats swinging circle when anchoring. On Lotti’s last day she left for an overnight sail directly to San Pedro. It was the night of the full ‘strawberry’ moon of

Porriog Bay and Berti left for the mainland and encountered the very strong winds and up to 4 metre swell that Ganty had avoided. In the same conditions Ganty sailed from Calpe to Torrevieja downwind surfing at up to 8 knots with just a storm jib set. On Sunday Lotti’s crew awoke to a beautiful morning, with the sea like a mirror, to find a yacht positioned 6 inches

the summer solstice which rose about 1 hour before sunset so they had the full moon to the east and the red sunset sky to the west, absolutely beautiful. Everybody got back safe and sound after a fabulous two weeks. Find more information about SAMM and the Cruising Group by going to www.sailingmarmenor.com/groups/ cruising/

Futuristic design perfect demonstration of that. It’s the electric vehicle for car-lovers.’ Those enthusiasts are treated to a panoramic windscreen that ensures the driver’s view is unhindered while also giving the impression of an open-cockpit LMP derivative. The rest of the styling is just as busy. Tones of BMW’s i8 are definitely present in the rear design, and that narrow nose and three-seat layout looks akin to the 3-seat dragster you find

doing demo runs at Santa Pod. The BladeGlider is meant show off what form next-generation sports cars may take. The paradox of fitting autonomous driving systems to the prototype would seem to negate much of the work Nissan has put into the car in order to make it handle as precisely as claimed – but for giving ‘dynamic rides’ to the VIPs at the Maracanã Stadium in Rio, it is all about the showcase.

Growth slows in July 2016 UK car market After numerous months of continuous growth, UK car registration numbers grew by just 0.1 percent in July, suggesting a cooling in the market. Growth in UK car registrations is slowing, according to official figures released by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT). The total number of new cars registered in July was 178,523, which is only fractionally more than the total for June. However, that’s still a small increase over July 2015, and the year-to-date total is higher than that for 2015 by 2.8 percent, with almost 1.6million cars sold so far this year. Fleet sales once again outstripped private sales by a small margin in July; they account for 51.1 percent of new registrations, compared with 45.1 percent private registrations and 3.8 percent business. Diesel sales fell by 1.1 percent compared with July 2015, although demand for diesels for the year so far has risen by 1.9 percent, with more than 15,000 more diesels registered in 2016. Petrol car registrations were almost identical to July of last year, with only 14 more petrol-powered cars registered in July 2016; on the whole, though, they’ve increased by 2.7 percent. Registrations of alternatively-fuelledd vehicles (AFVs) have risen considerably: in July more than 1,000 additional AFVs were registered compared with the same month in 2015. Due to AFVs’ relatively small market share of 2.4% though, the total number of AVS registered in 2016 so far is still only 51,394. The Ford Fiesta remains the bestselling car in the UK by quite a margin, with 7,990 registered in July, and 71,823 since the start of the year. The UK’s 10 most popular new cars of 2016 are as follows: Ford Fiesta 71,823 Vauxhall Corsa 47,962 Ford Focus 43,626 Volkswagen Golf 42,096 Nissan Qashqai 38,183 Vauxhall Astra 33,345 Volkswagen Polo 32,112 Mini 26,533

Vauxhall Mokka 25,783 Mercedes-Benz C-Class 25,084 Citröen’s falling market share continued in July, with a 21.56 percent decrease compared with July 2015. Across the same period, Fiat, Ssangyong and Mitsubishi’s market shares fell by around a quarter, and Porsche’s fell by 45 percent. Porsche’s year-to-date market share is bolstered by previous months’ successes, and has fallen by just 0.28 percent, while Fiat’s fell by 1.44 percent Renault endured a disappointing July; its market share fell by 31 percent compared with July 2015, although across the year so far its sales have grown by 14 percent to just over 3 percent of the total market. The largest decrease was that of Lotus, which sold just one car in July, compared with the 39 sold in July 2015. In 2016 so far, Lotus has sold 141 cars. The growing manufacturers were almost exclusively smaller-volume brands, with Infiniti taking the largest upswing in market share, having grown by 191 percent to 0.22 percent. Mercedes-Benz continued its growth, however, with 15% growth over last July, and 18 percent year-to-date growth. Its market share is now 6.27percent, having sold over 100,000 cars; in the same period last year it held 5.46 percent of the UK car market. Land Rover also grew considerably; its market share in July 2016 grew by 73 percent compared with the same month last year, going from a market share of 1.58 percent to 2.73 percent. The SMMT didn’t mention Brexit when reflecting upon the cooled growth, but called on the government to “deliver the economic conditions which instill business and consumer confidence.”

August 9th - August 15th 2016

here are so many good, nay great events on this week my mind is just way too excited by it all. We kick off on Tuesday at La Bodegueta with the long-awaited return of Woody and The Peckers. As rock n roll is one of the top genres on the Costa, the 3 lads are sure to have a full terrace and a joyful night with the folks of Lo Crispin. The mood changes to smooth as silk there on Saturday with Mr Swing himself – Darren Jones. Always a huge hit with the ladies, Darren tells me that it is one of his favourite places to perform as there is always a welcome from the audience and no shortage of dancers. La Marina Urb is out to party again on Wednesday. This time in Consum Square, where a very funny lady and great vocalist, the newly married Angie McKay, will be on stage in front of J’s, Temptations and Bianco’s for the mini fiesta. Phil Collins packed all the bars last time so seats will fill fast this time too. As this year’s main fiesta was held by the Police station, the events run but the 3 bars (one more after this too!) will give those used to the convenience and space of Consum Square the chance to enjoy superb acts right on their doorstep. Friday sees me and I hope, you too in San Miguel at The Black Bull (on the CV951 to Torremendo) to see Cassi Kennedy. From Benidorm, she recently appeared not only as a solo act but also with her band Rise as One in Villamartin Plaza. This time the lady with the huge voice will be entertaining as only Cassi knows how at this lovely newly opened restaurant. With a repertoire that ranges from Cilla Black to Meatloaf, Anastasia to Queen there is very little that this lady can’t twist her tonsils round. Busy day on Saturday – it’s show time! Not just any old show either but another premiere at The Club in Quesada. Hugely popular in all their different forms, Rick Patton, Trace Graham and Lee “The Animal” (I am sure that is not his surname!) will be thrilling lovers of all things rock ‘n roll, The Beatles, Quo, Stones and The Eagles. This has to be my top of the tree tip for Saturday night as not only are the boys consummate musicians but also great entertainers and lovely people to boot. So there you have it. All good stuff and all it needs is you to be there to tell me what a great time you are having. Come and say hi – you can’t miss me, I am the one with the camera round my neck, getting photos for the next issue of The Costa Blanca People Gig Guide.

■ CHRIS DARWEN chris@costablancapeople.com

So, the first gold medal in Rio was won by an American teenager with a gun. Makes sense, they’ve been getting a lot of practice. Less lucky were the Serbian kayak team who capsized. Apparently, and I am not making this up, they clipped a sofa that had been dumped underwater and overturned. There is so much Olympic chat to get through, I am going to give it you at the speed of Usain Bolt. Vietnam won their first ever Olympic gold in the men’s 10m air pistol. Guns were very much a hot topic over the weekend, with a “stray” bullet fired into the media tent at the equestrian venue. Stray bullet? At the time of writing no further information was given so I am going to assume it was either an assassination attempt, someone trying to put a horse down and failing miserably or they really didn’t set the Olympic

shooting range up at a safe distance from the other events. Chris Froome finished 12th in the cycling road race. The fact he was even able to enter is incredible considering the Tour de

punchlines. The French gymnast Samir Ait (below) Said broke his leg when competing in the vault. Well, his mother did always tell him he would be better off doing boxing like

France only finished the other day. Geraint Thomas finished 11th, his hopes crashing in the same way as he actually crashed. In other security news, and I have a feeling this may well be a running theme throughout the Olympics, there was a controlled explosion of a suspect package after the race. If Lance Armstrong was still involved there would be so many

all the other boys. Max Whitlock and Louis Smith led GB to the gymnastics final. With it happening on Monday, you know the outcome already. Adam Peaty broke a world record to reach the final of the 100m breaststroke. Swimming, if you hadn’t guessed. He went on to become the first Brit to win a swimming gold since Seoul 88, where it was the gloriously bald Adrian

Moorhouse. The superbly named Jazz Carlin won silver in the women’s 400m freestyle. Yusra Mardini became the first refugee to win an Olympic gold, winning the women’s 100m butterfly. The 18-yearold Syrian had dragged a dinghy to safety in the Mediterranean only last year. That certainly makes the GB training camp seem a little less military. The legend that is Michael Phelps got himself back in the pool for Rio and picked up his 19th gold in the 4x100m men’s freestyle relay. In tennis, Djokovic is on a personal mission to help Murray up his major titles total. The Serb lost in the first round to Del Potro. Murray won, but lost in the doubles just like the Williams sisters. Other than the Olympics, not a lot is happening in the sporting world. England beat Pakistan at Edgbaston to move 2-1 ahead in the Test series, having bowled them out brilliantly on Sunday. James Vince will need to stop nicking behind if he wants to be on the plane to India in the winter.

Tales from the Top Flight by Chris Darwen I’ve said it before and I will say it again. Friendly matches do not count! Did winning all their pre-Euro 2016 matches help England? Hell no. Therefore does battering Barcelona 4-0 mean Liverpool are odds on to win the title this year? Not even a little bit. Funny, the Liverpool fans were a little more quiet when they then lost 4-0 to Mainz twenty four hours later. Remember the above Sam, just because Andy Carroll got two friendly goals against Juventus at the weekend is not enough of a reason to make him England’s new number nine. West Ham have also been playing a bit of competitive football, easing through to the next round of the Europa League qualifiers by winning their first proper match at the Olympic Stadium. Bilic has also been busy in the transfer market, throwing around £20m for Swansea’s Andre Ayew and hoping to bring in Masuaku to launch balls in from the left on to Andy’s nut. Even though I used to spend the summer looking forward to the Charity Shield when growing up, I care nothing for the Community Shield either. Lingard need not get too carried away, scoring a fantastic goal at Wembley does not mean he is going to figure regularly for United, mainly because he is young and English and Jose is not a fan of either of those facts. No, even sitting on the bench at Wembley Mourinho will have been hoping that after all the prolonged posturing between United and Juventus that Pogba passes his medical. Either that or he is going to have to keep picking Felliani. Anything please, just so #pogback can disappear quickly back to from where it came. Felliani, however, claims Mourinho trusts him. Yes mate, trusts you to toddle off quietly to Sunderland when Moyes stumps up the cash. Ideally, in the eyes of Jose, Felliani will take Mata with him, the Spaniard being subbed on and off again within 30 minutes. Classic Jose, making subtle hints. United won 2-1 which means, in the vast majority of United fans eyes, the combination of Mou and Zlatan is a dead cert to win the title. Jose will definitely count that as his first trophy and Zlatan clearly has a better script writer than I. Tottenham have been getting an easy ride from TFTTF over the summer, but the

health and safety boys are all over them. Their club kitchen has been closed down after inspectors found insects and mouse droppings in the food preparation area. Burgers and hot dogs were also found “left out of the fridge” which sounds like a five point deduction waiting to happen to me. Arsene has been putting his magical powers of player assessment to the test once more. He has noticed that Zlatan “isn’t the youngest.” Next he will be

Howard will be returning from the States. All they need to do is pick up the phone to Victor Anichebe and Phil Jagielka and they get bonus points for completing a set. Important people at Bayern have been “outraged” at the treatment of the former Germany captain and members of Fifpro, who I have to admit I have no clue to who they are, are also liking it to “bullying in the work place” and suggesting Jose “should go to prison” for

tournament must have increased his vocabulary no end. Words like staggered, amazed, incredulous and bamboozled will have been uttered repeatedly when watching England’s campaign. I’ve been giving Theo Walcott a rough ride in recent days and even in today’s column. He has found someone to stick up for him again. Unsurprisingly it is Bayern, who seem to be the football bullying police this week. David Alaba has named Walcott as his toughest Ayew-Morgan-Dede

claiming that Theo is a striker. Oh, he did. And then Theo scored against City. Doesn’t count boys, friendly you see. In other news from the last week, Gabriel and Jesus became the next two signings for Manchester City, for a combined £27m from Palmerias. What do you mean he is the same player? The Brazilian international will actually join up with Pep in January, apparently he wants to spend Christmas with the family. We can all have a good look at the next Neymar/Pele/Ronaldinho when he plays for Brazil in the Olympics. Pep is expected to move for Moses and Pope in the next few hours, completing his very own holy trinity. I see what David Moyes meant by turning Sunderland into the new Everton. Steven Pienaar is training with his former boss in the hope of getting a deal. Before we know it, Fellaini will be there and Tim

what he has done. What’s that Jose, another industrial tribunal heading your way? Probably not, it’s football innit. Bobby Martinez is a magician. He managed to get the Everton job having just relegated Wigan and now he has popped up as manager of one of the most talented group of individuals in Europe. Martinez has landed the gig as Belgium manager, which will please Lukaku no end, but Kompany is already tearing his hair out. How this has happened, we have no idea. Maybe Bobby is better suited to international management, less time to coach defenders in the art of not defending possibly? Apparently the Poch was “staggered” that Harry Kane was taking corners at Euro 2016. It is nice to see his command of the English language coming on. Watching his England players in the

opponent. I kid you not. It’s in an official interview and everything. If this does not get written off as “lost in translation” and “taken out of context” by Monday morning I will close this column down. The claim clearly says more about Alaba than Theo. Staying with Arsenal, Wilshere is injured again. A crisp packet has gone on record to say that Wilshere is the toughest opponent he has ever faced. The crisp packet did manage to put Wilshere out for six weeks though.

The Members Golf Society

To celebrate our 4th anniversary we returned to the course where it all began, almost 40 members and a couple of guests took part in the competition. Stableford was the format of the day and with 3 categories and 7 N.T.P.’s to be won there were lots of prizes to play for. The course was in great condition, the only blemish was a temporary green on the 6 hole, but at least it was a cut temporary and not just a hole in the fairway. After the competition, members enjoyed a meal in the club’s restaurant Sponsored by the Society. Competition results; N.T.P.’s Hole 4 Mike O’Regan, Hole 5 (N.T.P. in 3 shots) Mike O’Regan, hole 6 Trevor Wheeler, Hole 10 John Eyre, Hole 11 (in 3 shots) 3 players made birdies here, Kristin Palsdöttir, John Hettrick and Carstan Landaas, Hole 15 Troy Norris, Hole 17 Mike

Last Saturday we celebrated our July Open Day for 2016 at La Serena. Conditions were extremely hot for golf with glorious sunshine and very high humidity. The weather did not pose a problem for one or two of our players as the scores will attest to. We must thank again the hard working green-keeping staff under the guidance of Wayne the head green keeper for the fine condition of the course. As always the marshals and clubhouse staff of John and Jose looked after all our needs and we were set for a great day of golf. The competitions committee under the guidance of Camillus and ably assisted by Philip, Andy and Alisdair have everything running like clockwork, well done Cam and co. Our captain Bev Ellender was at hand to present our monthly prizes and the lucky winners were as follows; in our Crystal events, we had week one Winner Denis McCormack with 34 points and second Michael Banfield 34 and third Jane Jenkins 33.

Wednesday's competition was a singles Stableford, the highlight of which was a hole in one by Dave Pulling at the 14th. The photograph shows Dave retrieving his ball from the hole. Amazingly Dave had also come within 5mm of another hole in one at the 12th. That was some golf Dave and thanks for the drinks afterwards in the clubhouse. The results for the day were: 1. Ken Robertson 37 pts. 2. Rod Doel 36 pts, 3. Peter Dunn 34 pts. 2s Club. Dave Pulling with his hole in one. Brian Dent also had a 2.

New footie fines in Spain Spanish football teams face fines unless spectator seats in TV camera view are at least three-quarters full. Spain’s football league will fine teams which do not fill at least 75 percent of spectator seats in the parts of the pitch where TV cameras are pointing. According to La Liga, new television coverage rules mean the section from corner to corner must be three-

quarters occupied as a minimum – and if these areas are less than 50 percent full, the fine will double. “Occupation of the stadium is part of the audio-visual perception of the match, and for optimum television coverage, the stadium should appear to be full,” La Liga states. To avoid fines, La Liga ‘strongly recommends’ that season-ticket

holders and VIP fans should be seated between corners ‘opposite the main TV camera’. “If any club considers that there are parts of the stadium which are not seen on the TV screens and which are frequently unoccupied, La Liga will pay for awnings to be set up to cover them,” the Spanish League concludes.

First Gold for Team GB in Rio Great Britain won their first medal of Rio 2016 as Adam Peaty took gold in the men's 100m breaststroke with a world record. The 21-year-old from Uttoxeter broke his own world mark by winning in 57.13 seconds, well clear of the field. Peaty is the first British man to win an Olympic swimming gold medal since Adrian Moorhouse, who won the same event in Seoul in 1988. Welsh star Jazz Carlin won silver in the women's 400m freestyle soon after. “It's so surreal to get Team GB's first

gold,” said Peaty, who finished more than 1.5 seconds clear of his nearest rival. “I came out tonight and took the first 50 easy and came back with everything I have got. I did it for my country and that means so much for me.” South African Cameron van der Burgh, the London 2012 champion, took silver, while Cody Miller won bronze for the USA. Peaty, who was already the world, European and Commonwealth champion, emulates the achievement of

fellow Britons David Wilkie (1976), Duncan Goodhew (1980) and Adrian Moorhouse (1988) in winning breaststroke gold. It took five days for Britain to win their first gold at London 2012, but Peaty's medal came on the second day of action in Rio. Peaty, making his Olympic debut in Rio, has been dominant from the first moment he got into the pool at the weekend, having first broken his own world record with a time of 57.55secs in the heats.

CD Montesinos First match in preparation for the new season is a friendly game against Preferente, Catral, at the Los Montesinos cauldron. The match is on Friday 12th August, kick-off at 9.00pm and it is believed that the entrance is free. Season tickets will be on sale for 30euro. The supporters club has 10 such tickets (numbers :- 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16), first come first served. However, there will be others available from the ground.
