The 8000th dog is welcomed by S.A.T. Finding a cardboard box full of puppies isn’t what most people expect when they take their rubbish to the bins.
H
owever, that’s what happened in Hondon a few weeks ago when an unsuspecting local resident did just that. Fortunately the box was placed beside, rather than inside the bin, which meant they were less likely to be thrown directly into the refuse collection lorry. ‘This wasn’t the first time we’ve had puppies who’ve literally been thrown away, brought to us,’ explained Glynis from
S.A.T. Sociedad Protectorapara Animales de Torrevieja. ‘Sometimes they are in the bin itself which means that if someone doesn’t come along in time they go straight into the lorry.’ Luckily for this litter of seven puppies this wasn’t to be the case. They were picked up and taken to S.A.T. animal rescue centre in Dolores. There they discovered that the puppies were only two weeks old and therefore unable to feed themselves. ‘Luckily we had some foster carers at the time who were here in Spain and available to take care of them’ explains Glynis. ‘It’s hard work when they’re so young as they need to be fed with a bottle Continued on page 5

Theft reported at the hospital ■ SUZANNE O’CONNELL suzanne@costablancapeople.com
A patient at Torrevieja hospital has had a laptop stolen from her room. The patient made a denuncia in front of the Guardia Civil claiming that the laptop was stolen on the morning of 25th October on the ground floor of the hospital. What is particularly unusual about the case is that the patient was in an isolation room, with the door closed and access restricted to close family and hospital staff. The patient was being isolated in order to protect her from infection. The robbery took place during twenty minutes when she was taken to another part of the hospital for a chest X-ray. In this short period of time it is alleged that someone accessed the room and took the portable computer and mobile which were together on the bed. The hospital has a sophisticated system of

people’s belongings. The patient was receiving treatment for cancer at the time of the theft. According to the hospital there has not been a theft of this nature previously there and the hospital has been doing everything it can to support the patient involved, including helping her make the denuncia.

Free-phone bullying helpline on offer to youngsters A school bullying helpline is now up and running offering 24 hour support and a free of charge service to youngsters. The number – which is 900 018 018 - does not show up on an itemised phone bill, meaning it can be called anonymously and without trace by either victims of bullying or anyone who has witnessed it. Pupils, their parents or friends at any school in Spain or any Spanish
school abroad can use it. Social workers, counsellors, psychologists and education specialists and even legal experts will man the line. Callers who are deaf or have trouble speaking can use a text-phone service or report incidents or seek advice online. Bullying does not have to be in person – the line is also open to those suffering cyber-bullying through social networks.

The head on collision between two cars happened at 1.15pm on Saturday 5th November. The accident occurred on the CV-945 close to the roundabout that links the road to Montesinos with the CV-90 into Torrevieja. Three people were left injured, one of them seriously. In one of the cars a 49 year old woman was traveling with her son. In the other vehicle were a married couple of 72 and 68 years old. All those involved were lucky to survive and had to be removed by emergency services due to the state of the cars. The most seriously injured being the older woman who suffered major injuries to her legs and had to be operated on urgently. Her husband also suffered injuries but of less severity than his wife. The 49 year old woman also had to be operated on urgently but her son was uninjured and able to walk free from the wreckage. Fire engines from both Torrevieja and Almoradí as well as the Guardia Civil and ambulances were called to the scene.

Orihuela Police cars run out of petrol BITE SIZE P
olicia Local patrol cars for the Orihuela Costa were in the absurd situation recently of having to drive 30 kilometres to Orihuela city to fill up with petrol and drive back another 30 kilometres, leaving the Costa without adequate protection, wasting two hours of time and using a considerable amount of the replenished petrol, before they could resume their patrol duties. Why were they doing this ridiculous farce rather than popping to the local filling station? Because the local Police has no credit left with local suppliers after the Town Hall has a mountain of unpaid petrol bills and has let the contract expire. The result is that local suppliers have simply turned off the taps. Unless a solution is found quickly, there will be no petrol available for patrol cars in Orihuela City either because the suppliers there are in the same situation. During the period when police cars were off road, policemen were obliged to patrol by foot; and all this during an extended holiday period when thousands of
residents and visitors were in Orihuela Costa enjoying summer-like weather on the beaches, swimming in the sea and shopping at Zenia Boulevard. A spokesman for local political party
CLARO said: “It is unbelievable that the level of local government services in Orihuela Costa could sink so low. We have been waiting six years for work on the construction of an Emergency Services
Centre to be resumed so that Orihuela Costa can at last have, open to the public, a desperately needed 24 hour, seven days a week police station with the presence in the Centre of national police, ambulances and a fire brigade. The promise that the Centre would be completed in the next two years is appearing more and more tenuous since Orihuela Town Hall has not even finished revising the plans to account for new standards in the design of the building. The revised plans are needed by the Valencia government in order to re-tender the project. “Together with dirty streets, uncollected garden waste, so-called parks and gardens either inadequately maintained or not maintained at all, we are used to an incompetent, uncaring local government which Orihuela Costa residents provide with 60 per cent of its revenue. To reach the ridiculous situation where local police cars have to be driven 30 kilometres to Orihuela and 30 kilometres back to fill up with petrol, simply beggars belief!”
Arctic front forces temperatures to plummet A mass of polar air heading for Spain means temperatures were set to drop by around 13ºC across the country from Saturday, putting an end to the long Indian summer which has seen beaches occupied in the first week of November. Unusually for Spain, high altitudes, especially in the north of the mainland, were even told to expect to see snow. Generalised rainfall was expected from Friday onwards, with the cold snap hitting
the north and north-west first and gradually working its way down the country, meaning that here on the Costas we got a day’s respite before the first taste of winter bit on Sunday with a cold wind turning the air decidedly nippy. Weathermen from the State meteorological agency, AEMET, say that the chilly front is currently hovering around the coast of Portugal, meaning the Canary Islands will not escape as the drop in temperature will wend its way south down
the Atlantic. The Mediterranean, traditionally one of the warmest parts of mainland Spain, will wave a tearful goodbye to the warmth and sunshine from the weekend, but the mercury will continue at levels somewhat higher than typically seen in early to mid-November, AEMET reveals. However, elsewhere in the country, temperatures will be considerably lower than usually experienced at this time of year, says the met office.
Snowfall at peaks of over 1,000 metres above sea-level is expected to be 'quite major', but as AEMET believes the cold snap is likely to be transient and luckily not too long lived, so anyone eagerly dusting off their skiing boots should hold fire for at least another month. Generally, the slopes in Teruel and the Sierra Nevada open just before Christmas, but heavy snow last year brought the start of the season forward by at least a week.

Small earthquake registered in Torrevieja The ING (Instituto Geográfico Nacional) registered a small earthquake on 5th November in the coastal area of Torrevieja. The tremor registered at 1.3 and was noted at 2.30 am in the southeast of the town. Although very small, some people did feel the tremor. During the last 15 days there have been a series of more than twenty slight tremors across Spain. The majority of these, however, haven’t even been recorded but have just been noted by the local population.
Waiting time for operations According to information released by the Department of Health, the average waiting time for an operation at Torrevieja hospital is 31 days. This is three months less that the average waiting time at other hospitals in the Valencian community. The data was released by the councillor Carmen Montón and represents the findings from the third part of the year. The average waiting time of hospitals in the community in September was 127 days. In some departments waiting time was even less. Gynaecology, dermatology, ophthalmology and Vascular Surgery experienced delays of between 16 and 20 days. The reason for the lower waiting time might be attributed to the hospital’s policy of day surgery without the need to keep patients in over night.
Glass recycling Torrevieja is pleased to be able to announce that the amount of recycled glass has increased during the summer months of July and August. Altogether 14.7% more was recycled during these months in 2016 than in 2015. Some of this increase can be put down to raised awareness and also the two events, Ecoparty and Hora Joven Fest which were both aimed at young people. Altogether 202 catering establishments cooperated with the town hall to help increase the amount recycled. Their support is particularly important as 50% of waste glass comes from these businesses. Use is particularly high overall during the summer months when recycling becomes even more important. The campaign in Torrevieja is part of a national campaign which has seen the participation of nearly 10,000 catering establishments in 94 coastal towns. In recognition of Torrevieja’s contribution, the town was presented with its own ‘Iglú Verde’, an award in the shape of a Continued on page 6
‘We are constantly in need of dog walkers too,’ points out Glynis. ‘The dogs need walking twice a day every day of the year, including Christmas day. This is the most important time for them as it’s when they get to socialise and spend time with someone on a one-to-one.’ every four hours.’ The hard work has paid Volunteers off. All seven in the litter have survived and although they are still with their foster family it won’t be long before they will be ready to move into the centre and be prepared for finding their own permanent home.
Needs new premises The litter of pups is a success story in itself. But it’s also a milestone in the charity’s history. S.A.T. has been in its current location in Dolores since 1999 and Octavia, one of the litter of seven, is the 8,000th dog they have catered for. Wonderful though it is that SAT have been able to look after so many abandoned animals, it has had its effect on their current premises. ‘Where we are now is ‘tired’,’ says Glynis. ‘We are currently raising money for some new premises which will be specially built. At the moment we are located on an old finca and we’ve customised it over the years to provide for the 70 to 80 dogs we cater for. However, every year we’re finding we have more and more repairs to make.’ This constant papering over the cracks is a source of financial drain and gets in the way of providing the best the organisation can for the volunteers and the dogs. ‘We’re always trying to think of ways of improving things for the people and animals who use our centre,’ says Glynis. ‘It’s so vital that everything is kept very clean and dry. This isn’t easy when it’s an old building with old tiling and, in the campo, we’re particularly susceptible to the Gotas frías.’ The S.A.T. website http://www.satanimalrescue.com/uk/defa ult.aspxhas more information about their ‘buy a brick’ campaign which they hope will lead to housing their dogs in a much more comfortable and sustainable environment. ‘What people don’t always consider is that we’re not only in the process of raising money to build but we have to keep our animals fed and sheltered too as an ongoing need.’
Fortunately S.A.T. are lucky to have a range of volunteers who help them in the many different jobs that need doing. This not only includes helping with the animals themselves. Eight different charity shops need to be kept open and functioning to provide much needed resources for the charity. ‘We are constantly in need of dog walkers too,’ points out Glynis. ‘The dogs need walking twice a day every day of the year, including Christmas day. This is the most important time for them as it’s when they get to socialise and spend time with someone on a one-to-one.’ This is all a crucial part of their rehabilitation into family life. The aim for S.A.T. is not only to rescue the dog and make sure it’s healthy but also to find it a home. That’s now their aim too for the seven puppies. ‘No puppy leaves us until it has had at least two of its injections,’ says Glynis. ‘Older dogs must be vaccinated and neutered. It’s so important that we address the number of abandoned animals that there are. We are, literally, trying to do ourselves out of a job.’
Please help There is no suggestion that that will happen any time soon. Dogs are still arriving regularly at the centre and Glynis is in as much need as ever of funds and volunteers to make sure everything runs smoothly and the dogs are healthy. In the meantime at least one of the litter has found a home. A resident from Hondon had heard the story and will take one of the puppies when it’s ready. If you think you might be able to provide a home for a puppy or a dog or think that you could perhaps help out on occasion then Glynis would welcome hearing from you either by calling 966 710 047 or emailing info@satanimalrescue.com. They are also looking for donations towards their new premises and these can be made via paypal on their website. Suzanne O’Connell

Which way to go,when you go Donation to Alzheimer’s A decade ago, just 16 per cent of funeral services in Spain involved cremation, but that number is now 36 per cent, with some 152,000 cremations carried out last year of a total of around 442,000 deaths in the country, according to the national association of funeral services Panasef. The association expects this number will continue to rise and is predicting six out of every 10 funerals in Spain will be cremations in 2026. That figure is already 70 percent in bigger cities while some €800 million has been spent on cremation furnaces in the last decade. “Young people don’t like visiting cemeteries,” says Panasef spokesperson Reyes Aguilar, explaining the change in tradition. Cost is not at stake either: people are paying an average of €3,600 for both funerals and cremations. There is no economic difference at the outset, although in the long run burials can be more expensive when you have to renew the lease on the plot of a grave. However, there is a potential problem with cremation. What should be done with
ashes? For Catholic families this question has just become an even more difficult one, given the Church’s recent decision to ban the scattering of ashes and to forbid them being kept at home. Spain has no national law regulating funeral services – something Panasef would like to see change as soon as possible – and every municipality has its own rules. This situation has led to most cemeteries making provision for the placement of urns and the scattering of ashes, depending on family wishes for an affordable fee. Other cemeteries are offering such spaces for free. Zaragoza’s Torrero cemetery is home to a garden where people can scatter ashes at no cost, while another section of the cemetery is given over to the burial of biodegradable urns, but for a fee. Elsewhere in Spain, local authorities have had to impose strict rules to stop the scattering of ashes at will. One of these places is the pilgrimage site of Rocío in southern Spain’s Huelva province, where
pilgrims had developed the practice of scattering ashes in the village as they saw fit. Anyone now wishing to place urns in the municipality’s cemetery must apply for permission, or face a hefty fine of up to €15,000. A statue dedicated to the legendary bullfighter Curro Romero, which stands outside Seville’s Maestranza bullring, is another popular location for the scattering of ashes. The Andalusian capital does not have specific by-laws relating to ashes but this action is covered by the rules regarding littering. Then there are those soccer stadiums where fans hope to spend the rest of their days. At present, three club grounds – Benito Villamarín (Real Betis), Vicente Calderón (Atlético de Madrid) and Cornellà-El Prat (RCD Espanyol) – have columbaria where urns can be placed. Luckily for FC Barcelona fans, all hope is not lost. The club has said it is looking at the creation of its own columbarium with space for 20,000 urns, a project it hopes can raise €6 million for the club.
The Alzheimer’s Association this week accepted a donation of €800 from Rascals who raised the money at their Summer show. The money is being used to purchase 34 games to help stimulate the patients who attend the day centre. Previous donations were given to Los Montesinos who purchased two hoists with the money and €800 to Age Concern
towards an industrial iron. Rascals have a busy time ahead in December raising money for children’s charities. They also help in the community by singing at the Age Concern Christmas dinner, The Alzheimer’s day centre, the Rojales residential home and give a party with gifts to the students of ALPE.

Reach Out Christmas Fair
Tourists outnumber residents
It's that time of year again. The "Reach Out" Christmas Fair will once again be held at the Marina Bar Calle de las Rosas Torrevieja on Saturday the 19th November at 2pm. There will be Christmas gifts, decorations, various stalls and a surprise visit from Santa to delight the children. It is bound to be as popular as ever
Holidaymakers continue to flock to Spain in unprecedented numbers – and the Indian summer is proving a huge help for the tourism industry, with beaches still full up on parts of the east and south coast, a rare sight in November. Up to and including September alone, a total of 60.3 million visitors had travelled to Spain – the equivalent of one-and-a-third of its population and a rise of 10.1 per cent year-on-year. And although July and August is peak holiday season in Spain, September alone saw a whopping 7.9 million foreign tourists arriving. Of these, a total of two million – just over a quarter – were from the UK, which continues to be one of Spain's largest holidaymaker markets. Reports from the National Institute of Statistics (INE) say British visitors were up 12.8 per cent on last September ‘despite Brexit’, although it must be remembered that Brexit has not happened yet and is unlikely to until at least early 2019. Many package holidays will have been booked before the Brexit referendum and, results of this aside, Spain remains the safest shorthaul sunshine destination and one of the cheapest, especially in September when the much higher school summer holiday prices no longer apply. If this situation continues, even after Brexit happens and despite the weaker pound sterling, it is likely Spain will remain the most-affordable beach holiday spot – and British weather will still mean residents want to seek some sunshine for a week or two a year, whatever else they have to sacrifice financially. In fact, over the year, 14.4 million Brits have visited Spain,
so please be sure to support this event and help this worthwhile charity. Organisers David and Lorraine Whitney are confident that this event will prove as popular as previous years and together with Dave and Rita Monaghan of the Marina Bar and "Reach Out" volunteer helpers it is sure to be just as successful.
a 13 per cent rise on the first nine months of 2015. France was the second-largest output country for tourism up to and including September, with 9.3 million in total, or 9.6 per cent more, and Germany's numbers rose by 4.3 per cent to 8.9 million. The highest year-on-year rise was seen among the Irish – 1.5 million holidaymakers from the Emerald Isle headed for Spanish shores, an increase of 20.8 per cent. Whilst still a long way
down the list, but slightly above the Republic of Ireland, the USA's 1.6 million visitors represented a rise of 6.9 per cent, and Russian tourists also rose, by a total of 1.2 per cent to exactly 842,646 people. Over the course of 2016, despite the well-deserved popularity and fame of Spain's main Costas and islands, it was Catalunya which welcomed the highest amount of visitors – 14.5 million, nearly a third of the country's population and just under a quarter of the annual total, up by 4.4 per cent on 2015. The staple beach haunts continued to thrive, with an increase of 10.6 per cent for the Balearics to 11.5 million, or 19.1 per cent of the total, and a rise of 13.2 per cent for the Canary Islands to 9.6 million, representing 15.9 per cent of all foreign visitors to Spain. So far, the region seeing the biggest rise in tourism has been the Comunidad Valenciana, which includes such diverse destinations as Benidorm – which makes no secret of its ‘cheesybut-fun’ and very-British appeal – and the sleek, cosmopolitan city of Valencia, plus literally everything in between including up-market villas for rent, quiet fishing villages, dramatic countryside, high-rise hotels, from the heavily-touristy to the rustic and traditional. The region's tourism industry was rubbing its hands together with glee as 6.3 million visitors poured in, a rise of 16 per cent on last year's figures. This was an even better result than the equally-popular Andalucía, with 8.5 million holidaymakers.

Use official information sources, urges Consul At open meetings in Jávea and Teulada this week, British Consul Sarah-Jane Morris encouraged British nationals to register locally with the Spanish authorities and asked them to only go to official sources for information on the implications of the recent EU referendum. With almost one fifth of local residents British, Jávea ranks in the top ten towns in Alicante for British residents. Nearby Teulada also has a considerable British population. At the well-attended meetings, the Consul was keen to stress the need to register locally. Sarah-Jane said, “We are feeding back statistics on how many British nationals are living in Spain so the UK government takes you into account when planning our exit from the EU. The only figures we have are provided by the Spanish authorities – those on the padrón and those with residencia. It’s therefore crucial that you are registered locally so that we can effectively represent you in this process.” The Consul suggested that those having trouble registering could request the services of a local gestor administrativo, or legal secretary, which are commonly used in Spain to assist with paperwork. In Jávea, Doris Courcelles,
councillor for EU residents, said that local residents could visit her for help in registering with the town hall. Sarah-Jane reassured attendees that British people both living in and visiting Spain are a high priority in the information being fed back to London. She strongly advised Brits to check updates on the exit situation from official sources, and avoid rumours, highlighting the dedicated UK government webpage, which is: www.gov.uk/guidance/advice-for-britishnationals-travelling-and-living-in-europe Updates and further information will also be published on the official ‘Britsin Spain’ Facebook page. Sarah-Jane was accompanied by Martyn Standing from the healthcare team, who responded to questions on how to access healthcare, reiterating the Consul's message that, as yet, nothing has changed: British nationals still enjoy the same rights as before the EU Referendum. Martyn encouraged residents to check the healthcare website for official information on healthcare provision available for British nationals, which is available at the following link: www. healthcareinspain.eu

More bats, fewer mosquitos in Torrevieja It might come as a surprise to learn that Torrevieja has launched its own bat conservation project. The bats or Murciélagos are in danger due to the removal of the terrain that they would usually occupy. In Torrevieja large areas of land which would have provided the bats’ natural habitat, have gradually been removed to provide land for building. In order to lure and retain the bats here once more, 50 wooden bat boxes have been provided. They are being positioned in the locations that the bats like to use already as well as some new areas where they would like to introduce them. A variety of boxes are being used in order to find out which the bats actual prefer. So why is it so important to preserve Torrevieja’s bat colonies? Bats like to eat mosquitos and maintaining them in the locality is a natural way of reducing the
Councillor Fanny Serrano inspects the boxes
presence of the pest without the use of chemicals. However, it is also important to make sure that the amount of insecticides used is reduced as in one day a bat can digest up to 10% of its own weight in mosquitos. Use of the boxes is more difficult to establish than conventional bird boxes because they are used not only for raising young but also for shelter during the winter and during migration. The sensitivity of bats means that great care must be taken with the location of the boxes if they are to be used successfully. This isn’t the first time that Torrevieja has committed to the use of bat boxes. At the end of 2012, 15 were installed. This was a pilot project which resulted in 70% of the boxes being occupied. This successful trial has led to the latest phase of the project.
The protection of bats through the use of bat boxes might be relatively new in Spain but in the USA and in many countries in the centre and north of Europe taking this approach is nothing unusual. Mosquitos aren’t the only pest that the bat is effective in reducing. They also like to eat processionary caterpillars and moths that attack vines. There is evidence that where there is an increase in this natural predator then pests to agriculture and humans are reduced. Many of the bat boxes being installed are situated near to the salt marshes and areas of still water. Bats might not traditionally be considered to be a great asset to an area but it is hoped by raising awareness that local town’s people will come to see them as friends rather than a nuisance.

Gibraltar - the elephant in the room Rather than time clarifying what Brexit will mean, it seems that every new event brings with it further complications. The recent judgement by the High Court has angered those wishing to leave the EU. However, it reflects a legal position that some must have been aware of; that Parliament is required to have a vote in the matter. However, long and tortuous the path, news this week suggests that it could come to an abrupt halt if Spain and the UK cannot agree over Gibraltar. At the end of October, Lord Hague met with Chief Minister of Gibraltar, Fabian Picardo. Following the meeting he expressed his view that the issue of Gibraltar’s sover-eignty could result in the UK being held hostage towards the end of Brexit negotiations. Lord Hague is of the view that the Brexit negotiations will need longer than the two years specified. If this is the case then an agreement will need to be reached that the process of negotiation can continue over a longer period of time.
Spain would have the right to veto this agreement, leaving British businesses in the lurch. With Spain keen to regain sovereignty of Gibraltar, there is a possibility that the Spanish Government could hold up trade agreements at the last minute in a bid to rest sovereignty for themselves. This would be at a time most dangerous for businesses who could be left without proper arrangements in place with which to continue trading. To avoid this impasse Lord Hague recommends that there should be a transitional deal to maintain trading links in the event that this crisis should occur. In the meantime there is some good news for those watching the future and fortunes of Gibraltar. Mariano Rajoy’s new cabinet has seen former Spanish Foreign Minister, José Manuel Garcia Margallo removed and Alfonso Dastis Quecedo replacing him as new Foreign Minister. José Manuel Garcia Margallo was the minister who inspired the ‘No way José’ reaction from Fabian
Picardo, when he made it clear that Spain would seek dual sovereignty over Gibraltar. Mr Dastis Quecedo is considered to be centre-right and fluent in English and French. Quecedo has had considerable involvement with the EU and is considered now to be the minister most likely to take up responsibility in the dialogue between Spain and the UK. There also seems to be more opportunity for dialogue on Spain’s approach to Gibraltar emerging. On Wednesday 2nd November the lower chamber’s Foreign Affairs Comm-ittee approved a non-binding resolution asking the government for a strategy on Gibraltar. It would seem that many politicians, including those of the PSOE, PP and Ciudadanos, are anxious that Spain’s future negotiating position should not be compromised. A position, it seems, less confrontational than that of Margallo. Suzanne O’Connell

Race against time for Spain to home 18,000 refugees Now Spain finally has a government it will have to get cracking if it is to meet its target of resettling 18,000 refugees by September 2017. So far, only 687 of them – mostly from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan – have arrived in Spain from camps in Greece and Italy. Spain made a commitment in 2015 to take its quota in a bid to relieve the massive humanitarian crisis affecting Europe as hundreds of thousands flee countries destroyed by armed conflict, risking their lives to reach the safety of the continent. Initially, the EU set up a re-housing programme involving 160,000 asylum seekers being given shelter throughout the 28 member States, most of whom were already living in appalling conditions in camps in Italy and Greece, then this number was increased by 22,000 to help ease the burden for Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan, where the bulk of the African and Middle Eastern refugees are based. In fact, a recent study shows Jordan is home to more refugees than anywhere else in the world, with nearly 50 per cent of its population being asylum seekers. Although critical at first with the EU’s requests, claiming the European Commission had not taken into account the circumstances of individual member States such as poverty or existing percentage of immigrants, Marian Rajoy (PP)’s cabinet agreed to house 18,000 refugees, of whom 1,400 would come from camps in the countries bordering their native lands and the rest from camps already on EU soil. Up to the end of September this year, according to interior ministry figures, Spain had welcomed 398 refugees – 50 from Italy and 348 from Greece – and this month, its leader Jorge Fernández Díaz said another 400 from Greece and 100 from Italy would be on their way, meaning a total of 900 by the end of 2016. By around a week ago, another 289 refugees – 232 from Lebanon and 57 from Turkey – had arrived, and Fernández Díaz announced the resettling of another 200 due from Turkey was being organised along with 375 more from Lebanon. Numerous regional governments and town
councils started preparing for the refugees’ arrival a year ago, even setting up registers of residents who had spare rooms or second homes they were prepared to allow asylum seekers to stay in, and crossMediterranean ferry firm Baleària offered one of its ships. Among these was Valencia, one of the regions’ most keen to take in asylum seekers and which has as yet not received one, much to the chagrin of its government. Also on the refugee front, the now invested government faces the challenge of resolving problems in the immigration internment centres, including poor, prison-like conditions and reports of rough and inhumane treatment. Recently, a group of Algerian migrants staged a peaceful protest on the roof of the centre in the Madrid suburb of Aluche – which looks set to be shut down – and another 37 residents at the Zona Franca centre in Barcelona staged a hunger strike. Warm welcome Fortunately for migrants in these centres and refugees on their way, Spain is among Europe’s most-welcoming nations of foreigners from all walks of life – despite having one of the continent’s worst unemployment records, an overwhelming majority of the population has put this aside in its calls for compassion for those fleeing poverty and war zones. Whilst Spain's government has been one of the most generous member States in terms of its pledge to take in asylum seekers, the general public has still protested on the streets saying its politicians are not doing enough to help. This contrasts refreshingly with several other EU nations where far-right politicians and public opinion are strongly against taking in asylum seekers and demonising the refugees. Expatriates in Spain are largely unsurprised by the country's compassion and insistence on housing as many migrants as possible, given that foreigners have long been made to feel ‘part of the furniture’ from the moment they arrive on Spanish soil.

WEEKLY EURO UPDATE Investors’ changing appetite for risk was the most important factor in the euro’s week. When they leaned towards nervousness - as they did when Donald Trump edged ahead of Hilary Clintonin the US opinion polls they bought the safe haven euro, yen and franc. The three currencies were just about unchanged on the week against one another while the euro picked up a cent and three quarters from the listless US dollar. Against all the odds it was sterling that took the honours among the majors, sharing first place with the NZ dollar. It added two thirds of a euro cent and strengthened by an average of 1.0% against the other ten most actively-traded currencies. The main factor in its favour was the high court’s ruling that parliament must approve the activation of the Article 50 process of leaving the EU. Rightly or wrongly, investors believe this improves the odds
of an amicable divorce; one that will do minimum damage to the UK economy. Eight months ago the Bank of England governor was unwise enough to tell parliament’s Treasury Committee that leaving the European Union might have adverse effects on the UK economy. Since then, certain MPs have been on his case. Last month even the prime minister appeared to criticise the bank’s monetary policy. In recent weeks, because of this, investors were wondering if Mark Carney might leave the bank at the earliest opportunity in 18 months’ time when he will have been there for five years. The governor put an end to that speculation on Monday when he said he would stay for a total of six years, long enough to see through the supposedly two year long Brexit process. Investors expressed their appreciation for his commitment by buying the pound.
Bank card warning Cyber theft and card cloning is unfortunately more common than most of us think. This week The Costa Blanca People was contacted by a man whose card had been cloned and whose entire contents of his bank account had been cleared by the thieves. The man reported the theft to Sabadell immediately. In fact he was alerted t the issue because he received a text message from them saying he had exceeded the overdraft limit on his account. Knowing he had done no such thing, he called the emergency number and the theft was discovered. With a little bit of inconvenience - getting crime report from the Guardia and visiting his branch the next day – thankfully the money will be returned in full, although it will probably take a week by the time the paperwork is sorted and the money is credited. However, during the visit to his branch the man was told about ‘contactless cards’, a concept he had never heard of and wanted us to pass on the warning to our readers. This type of card, which can be a debit or a credit card, can apparently be cloned or copied by machine without the
xthieves even having to swipe the card or even touch it in anyway. It can be done simply by being within a short radius of proximity. So the thief, armed with the right technology, simply walks past you, or walks around a busy place such as a market, bar or sporting event and the machine picks up the data from the cards it ‘finds’. Although our reader’s card wasn’t cloned in this way it was a contactless card and he wants to make sure that people do not go through the stressful experience that he has. He said: “To be told someone has taken all the money out of your account, is a terrible feeling. Every penny I had was taken and although the bank will replace it, I have to wait a week – which is a long time with no money.” Please check you bank cards now to see if they are ‘contactless’ cards and if they are see you bank about having them changed and updated. Luckily, these cards are easily identifiable as they have four white curved bars on the front as shown in the picture. If your card has this symbol then it needs to be changed for your financial security.

Let’s plant different species of plants as well as herbs. Herbs are something that most of us like, whether it’s just to look at, to smell or to add to our food as flavouring. Herbs can be grown either indoors or outdoors, so you don’t even have to have a garden to grow them, although a windowsill so that they can get the natural sunlight and fresh air will always improve on their growth and flavour.
There are many types of herbs but one of the most popular is Basil and therefore some detail will be gone into in this article. Basil can be grown from seed or an easier way to almost guarantee growth is to buy them as seedlings. These can be obtained from most supermarkets and nurseries.
BASIL (Osimum Basilicum) is called ALBAHACA in Spanish As far as it is known, Basil was grown in Egypt over 4,000 years ago (since written records began) and may have been used for embalming. The first part of its Greek name explains that Ocimus organised fighting combats in honour of Pallas who was a ruler and had 50 sons! The Greeks believed that when Ocimus was killed in a gladiatorial fight that Basil
started to grow. In India it has been used for centuries as a condiment. Basil is thought of as a “Royal” plant. Handy tip! If you want to get rid of ants in your kitchen then a pot of Basil placed on the windowsill should do the trick! Water it sparingly and replace it every few months. Basil is easy to grow from seed, as long as it is in a sunny spot. The seeds can last up to about eight years. As they are so tiny your best bet, if growing from seed, is to start them in flats and cover lightly with soil. When the seedlings are about an inch in height, thin them out so that each plant is roughly two inches apart. Once they have grown and you want to move them somewhere else, or plant them elsewhere, then they need to be at least three inches tall before you do this so that they have plenty of root growth on them. They should also have two sets of leaves on them already before this is done, so if your plant is tall enough but there are only one set of leaves, wait until the next set also have grown. Move them to a sunny location as mentioned previously, but they do need to have some shade during the hottest time of the day - generally between the hours of 10 and 3 - especially when they are young. They need to be planted 1 foot apart from the other with the rows about 15 inches apart. Basil does not like weeds, so if you want to grow it as a border plant then you will have to remove the weeds as and when they grow. Basil is happiest in light fertile soil that is drier rather than
CostaBlancaPeople 8th - 14th November 2016
too damp. Once the plants start to meet up with each other then the cultivation may stop. If they are still very young do not place them where it is windy as this can harm them as much as the direct heat of the sun. It can grow between 12-20 inches tall. When it flowers there are generally either little white or lilac (purple basil) flowers, then in turn small black berries will grow and these contain the seeds for the next generation of plant. The best time to pick the leaves is mid-summer when the plants start to flower and the
flavour decreases. It is best to pick the larger leaves first. If you do this every few weeks it will encourage the plant to grow more leaves and so on. You can get a second/third crop by cutting the plants right down to 2-3 inches above the ground. Culinary uses for Basil once picked: - It is an herb that can add a subtle flavour to salad dressings, sauces for pasta (including Pesto or tomato) and also soups and stews. It goes really well with garlic. Have fun! Marc Vijverberg

‘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
We’re Still “A Rockin’ ‘n’ a Rollin’ in the Aisles!” When I worked in Galway in the 1960s one of the many characters I knew there used always claim that Arthur – of the Guinness family, was the real father of half the children of Ireland. Pauric’s argument may have had some merit at the time, but if you want to proportion some blame to what one might term ‘proxy’ fathers, I believe that Elvis, Jerry Lee and Chuck have far more of a case to answer than poor old Uncle Arthur! The greatest musical revolution of all time took place more than half a century ago and nothing would ever be the same again. For the first time ever a young generation had an identity and Rock and Roll was their expression of that identity. The establishment, especially in America, was horrified and did everything possible to crush the new craze. “Devil’s Music”, “Nigger Music”, “White Trash” were the descriptions used to vilify the new pop idols. D.J., Alan Freed, who coined the term “Rock ‘n Roll” when he declared on radio; “They’re a Rockin’ ‘n a Rollin’ in the Aisles” paid the biggest price of all and became a hate figure for the establishment. He was hounded out of his radio job and his new television show was pulled faster than a Bertie Ahearn excuse when he allowed a black singer to dance with a white girl. He died a broken, penniless man at the age of 43. But nothing could now weaken the pulse of Rock ‘n Roll. Amplified instrumentation, heavy beat and a heady mix of Blues, Country and Gospel became the most exciting music of all time and literally drove the kids wild. “Blues” was an especially dirty word because it was associated with black music and a new name was essential, but it is ironic and funny that few knew that “Rockin’ and Rollin’” was the slang term for sex in the Black
Community. Around 1950 a record-shop owner began to notice that a lot of white kids were buying ‘Rhythm & Blues’ stuff recorded by black artists. He kept reminding his friend, Sam Phillips, of this fact until Sam opened his Sun Records Studio in Memphis in 1952. It is just unbelievable the talent that Sun discovered over the following five years; Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison and even at that, the jewel in the crown was yet to walk in the door, when one day a shy young “Mama’s Boy” called Elvis Presley, paid four dollars to record a song for his mother’s birthday. That song was to change the course of popular music forever and make all our lives the better for it. My wife, Pamela, often tells of the nuns in Loreto telling them to forget about Elvis Presley because “there wouldn’t be a word about him in a year from now!” Two of the great pioneers of Rock ‘n Roll were Little Richard and Chuck Berry, both of whom were black. In the early to mid fifties there was no Rock ‘n Roll on television so it was almost exclusively a radio craze, with the result that many fans thought that Jerry Lee, Buddy Holly, Carl Perkins and even Elvis at the start, were black. The shock at finding white boys singing “nigger music” pushed some upstanding pillars of the community in the Deep South over the edge and the police broke up many concerts by brutal force. But the new generation were not for turning and probably Rock ‘n Roll music played some small part in moving away from racial segregation eventually. By the time that Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and the Big Bopper were killed in an aircraft
crash in 1959 Rock ‘n Roll had reached the pinnacle of its popularity, as shown by the fact that in the previous year the three of them, collectively, had sold over ten million records worldwide. But it was Elvis who was to become the undisputed king of Rock ‘n Roll and even now, thirty years after his death his magic has not waned. I am amazed that I can still hear Elvis sing some song I haven’t heard already. I wonder how many songs in total he recorded. His death at the age of 42 shocked his millions of fans worldwide, but so many of his classic songs remain in the hearts of the people and are regularly played worldwide. I think his gospel songs are some of my favourites, as well as an old cassette I have of “Elvis sings Country” – but this column is about Rock ‘n Roll! As with other Rock ‘n Rollers, Elvis was greatly influenced by Blues and Soul music in Memphis and like so many more, he was brought up singing gospel. In 1955 Sam Phillips sold his Presley contract to RCA Victor and by 1956 he was an international sensation. With a sound and style that uniquely combined his diverse musical influences and blurred the racial barriers of the time, he ushered in a whole new era of American music and popular culture. Chubby Checker was 90 last week and still shuffling across the stage on one leg. ‘Roll over Beethhoven’ is right…!

Spanish food industry under threat from Brexit The Spanish food and drink industry could be facing lower revenues, fewer exports and smaller profits as a result of the Brexit vote. This is one of the conclusions of Alimentación y bebidas: tendencias 2016 - Food and beverages: Trends for 2016 - a study by the consulting group KPMG. According to the Trade Secretary’s Office, in 2015 Spain exported food and drinks to Britain worth over 3.5 billion euros, making it the second-mostimportant export sector after the auto industry. Food exports to the UK grew 60 percent between 2006 and 2015. The fruit and vegetable category experienced the greatest boom, representing a 51 percent increase over the period to reach sales of over 2 billion euros in 2015. This is followed by beverages, food preparations, meat products, and fats and oils. But this growth could be substantially slowed down by Britain’s decision to leave the European Union. The study analyses the internal effects of the Brexit vote, some of which are already taking place. The pound has fallen 15.18 percent against the euro, making imports more expensive for British companies and leading KPMG to conclude that the latter will increasingly turn to “locally produced goods.” British retailers will also face new hurdles such as tariffs or taxes on EU
imports. The study further notes that British consumers have reduced their spending levels due to “a rise in uncertainty, an expected rise in unemployment and a loss of purchasing power.” As a result of these lower imports by Britain, Spanish food exporters will have to reduce their own profits if they want to keep up a stable turnover. The study also notes that third countries facing difficulties to place their own products in the UK might turn to the Spanish market
instead, thereby increasing the competition for domestic firms. Legal changes in the British market could also force Spanish exporters to obtain new licenses or meet new food import standards, and even to pay new taxes. The consulting firm is urging Spanish food and drink companies to try to “quantify the direct impact” of Brexit on their accounts, and to start drawing up action plans for the various scenarios opening up before them.

Visit to TIJUANA with Vivalia Travel Tijuana is a huge city with several district articles containing sightseeing, restaurant, nightlife and accommodation listings. It is by far the largest urban metropolis of Northwestern Mexico, and is also its westernmost city. Tijuana and its US neighbor San Diego form the largest metropolitan area on the US-Mexican Border
Tijuana is a huge city with several district articles containing sightseeing, restaurant, nightlife and accommodation listings - have a look at each of them. Tijuana is the dominant focal city of Northwestern Mexico, in Baja California, Mexico and right across the border from San Diego, California, USA. Tijuana has a population of around 1.3 million people according to the last census and this figure expands to more than 1.7 million if its surrounding suburbs are included. The city has grown from a small border town with a salacious reputation during the Prohibition Era in the United States into a large, modern city with a sizeable middle class and ever expanding housing estates. Tijuana's proximity to the United States, along with Rosarito, has made the two adjacent cities a very popular tourist destination, especially for day-trippers from San Diego. Prominent tourist attractions include Avenida Revolucion in Zona Centro, shops and restaurants in Zona Rio, and nightlife entertainment, which is concentrated in several localities, including the commercial area around 6th and Revolucion St, as well as Tijuana's red light district. Tijuana is by far the largest urban metropolis of Northwestern Mexico, and is also its westernmost city. Tijuana and its US neighbor San Diego form the largest metropolitan area on the USMexican Border with a combined population of 5 million people. The two cities enjoy substantial social, economic, and cultural interactions. Tijuana's environment is shaped by the agreeable climate of the Pacific Ocean and is adjacent to one of the the
wealthiest and most populated sections of the United States with which Mexico shares a border. It has a sizeable middle class and is home to numerous manufacturers taking advantage of NAFTA. Despite (or perhaps because of) declines in tourism due to violence associated with the drug trade during 2008-2011, the social, cultural, and musical culture of the city have continued to develop, allowing the city to attract artists from all over North and Central America. Tijuana is home to every class, from the working class to the wealthy, from junkies to businessmen. Tijuana is particularly notable for the influence of
fashion and trends introduced by Chicanos of the United States, including the development of a localized Spanglish. Tijuana is a major transit point for illegal immigration into the United States, as well as a common destination for any illegal Mexican immigrants deported from the West Coast of the United States. As such, some areas are swollen with poor people with no roots in the city, who inhabit illegal, albeit tolerated, shanty towns. In sharp contrast to these shanty towns lie
housing estates for the upwardly mobile, from maquiladora families, university students, to high class businessmen, reflecting Tijuana's status as one of the wealthiest cities in Mexico. Tijuana has a growing cosmopolitan character, although lacking the scale and diversity seen in Mexico City. The city is home to many people who have migrated from within Mexico, along with native Mexican Indians, Asian residents (predominantly Chinese diaspora families, and Korean and Japanese factory managers), as well as many US citizens (predominantly MexicanAmericans including "cholos" and excholos, with a sprinkle of retired American folk, though Rosarito is attracting more retirees in the past decade, cheaper life seekers, and Americans escaping law enforcement) and South Americans from Argentina and Uruguay, among others. Frequent English-speaking visitors to Tijuana use the term "gringo-friendly" for a shop, bar, or restaurant in which a non-Spanish speaking customer will be at ease. A place is gringo-friendly if the staff is accustomed to dealing with American tourists, if they speak English and have English-language menus. Places that are not gringo-friendly may require use of Spanish, and patience. Just because a place is not gringo-friendly does not imply that the people there will not be friendly or that tourists will not be welcome. While the Mexican peso is the legal currency, US dollars are widely used and accepted, even by locals. Tijuana observes daylight saving time (DST) the same way as the USA does. Money changers on the US side may offer better rates when buying pesos and worse rates when selling pesos.

SLEEP PARALYSIS V GHOSTLY EXPERIENCES ON WAKING Sleep Paralysis v‐ Spirit Sleep Paralysis is the inability to move at all, although you are fully conscious. From a health point of view it's nothing to worry about as it's your body that's not moving smoothly through the stages of sleep. Sleep paralysis usually lasts no longer than a couple of minutes, although it seems much longer. From a personal point of view, I have experienced this phenomenon a number of times over the years and I remember as a child lying fully awake but not being able to move. I was so frightened; I couldn't speak or shout out. I realised quite quickly that the only thing I could do was to wait a while and the feeling passed as quickly as it came. I don't know what was more frightening as a child, sleep paralysis, which was having to succumb to something I didn't understand where my mind seemed active unlike my body and voice or, something quite different ‐ the start of feeling spirit around me. To move or not to move? As a Clairvoyant Medium I know that sleep paralysis is completely different than anyone claiming to see or feel spirit For a start, sleep paralysis is being in that state of half being awake, and half asleep although you feel completely conscious it's as if there is an internal battle going on as to who wins. The waking self or the sleeping self! In my experience, 'Ghostly' experiences are
completely different. For a start, when seeing or sensing spirit, your body can move, and you can shout out if you want to whereas everything is in reverse in relation to sleep paralysis. Flashing faces One of the things I get asked a lot is why do people sometimes see flashes of faces before going to sleep ‐ most are very clear images seem to be of people they haven't seen before. I remember this distinctly especially when spirit activity was starting to get very strong around me yet I was still trying to ignore it as I was frightened of ghosts! Just like sleep paralysis there is much controversy around the 'flashing faces'. Some believe it is attributed once again, to sleep paralysis. It's my belief that it isn't. Again, it's something to do with the brow chakra opening which is known as the third eye ‐ the 'all seeing' eye which, when developed, helps us to see beyond the physical realm. When you are tired and ready for a good night's sleep, your mind starts to relax so it's much easier for you to receive clairvoyant information which can be received in a number of ways from colours, random images, and eventually into something tangible such as faces. If like me, seeing the faces may happen involuntarily, whereas for others, they will see the flashing faces as they start to develop their psychic ability. When this happens for the first time it can be extremely frightening and yet in
reality it can be a common occurrence. Visitation from other dimensions? For those who have experienced 'flashing faces', some may seem familiar, but most will be people you feel you have never seen before. Because this is attributed to clairvoyance, the faces could be people you have yet to meet in the future (premonitions) as if you are connecting with parallel dimensions through your third eye such as people you had connections with in previous lives, or even your own ancestors. It's widely known that as the veil between our world and the spirit world is much thinner during the hours of darkness, and anything is possible. . . There is a name for this ‐ 'The Pareidolia' which scientists believe the meaning is seeing faces in things when none exist. The reality of it all is, no‐one knows for definite what they are, and why they continue to show themselves to us.. How to stop it! To stop sleep paralysis or any other frightening experiences at night all you have to do is call upon beings of 100% light such as the Angelic Realms. Archangel Michael particularly can stand guard over you while you sleep helping to promote sweet dreams and wrap you in his blue ray of strength and protection. Invoking Archangel Michael Visualise the mighty Archangel Michael ‐ leader of the Archangels, standing in his blue
ray of light. To invoke him, say this mantra "Archangel Michael so strong and true, please surround me with love and protection anew. Wrap me in your cloak of light to make my dreams loving and bright ‐ thank you, so mote it be". Then see him standing with his sword of light which will help cut cords to anything lower than beings of pure light. Crystal for protection You can also place a piece of Amethyst in the bedroom. Amethyst is a protective stone bringing positivity and healing into the home. It is also known as the dream stone and if you put a cleansed piece under your pillow, it can bring about pleasant dreams. Amethyst can also help to alleviate any fears bringing a sense of calm into any room. Dream catcher Placing a handmade dream catcher on the wall behind your bed is also a protective measure against bad dreams, sleep paralysis or 'sleep terrors' especially where children are concerned. It's a well known fact that dream catchers promote a good night's sleep and positive dreams, as the bad dreams get caught up in the web of the cream catcher. A waking nightmare? Sleep Paralysis ‐ A waking nightmare, or a higher consciousness enabling one to connect with 'the other side'? I know what my take on this is ‐ What do you believe?

Madrid considers restricting cars in city centre
Madrid’s city council is on the verge of temporarily slashing the number of cars allowed into the city centre by half as the Spanish capital struggles with high levels of air pollution. With levels of nitrogen dioxide rising above permitted levels, the city authorities have activated a series of anti-pollution measures, reducing the speed limit on the M30 orbital motorway around the centre and banning parking in the area for non-residents. Authorities are also urging people to use public transport wherever possible. The boina, or beret, of smog (as the locals call it) that hovers over Madrid prompted the council to introduce a raft of strict traffic protocols last year. In mid-November 2015, nitrogen dioxide levels in the city centre reached almost double the World Health Organisation (WHO) guidelines. Recently the council said that although the threshold had been met to enact a measure forbidding 50 percent of vehicles from entering the centre – those with number plates ending in even numbers allowed on even days and those
ending in odd ones on odd days – the move would be suspended because many people were returning from the long All Saints’ Day bank holiday weekend. “However, the Madrid city council asks people not to head into the central area in order to lower the levels of NO2 pollution,” it said in a statement. “As an alternative, we recommend the use of public transport.” It was decided that should nitrogen dioxide levels remain high by mid-week (after the bank holiday return), the council would bring in the odd/even ban in Madrid’s seven central districts. Emergency services vehicles are exempt from the ban, as are, among others, taxis, zeroemission cars, motorbikes and removal vans. A number of cities have similar schemes. Last November, the Mayor of Paris, Ann Hidalgo, won a fight with the French government to introduce emergency traffic bans during pollution spikes that would see alternate driving days based on number plates. The city has banned old, more polluting cars registered before 1st January 1997 from the city’s streets from Monday to Friday, 8am to 8pm. In March, the WHO warned that outdoor air pollution has risen 8 percent globally in the past five years, with billions of people around the world now exposed to dangerous air. Outdoor air pollution causes more than 3m deaths a year – more than malaria and HIV/Aids – and is now the biggest single killer in the world. The UN says air pollutants such as sulphates, nitrates and black carbon penetrate deep into the lungs and the cardiovascular system, posing huge risks to human health. The toll of toxic air is expected to double as urban populations increase and the number of cars in the world reaches 2bn by 2050.

Rebecca Serwotka – Your favourite local property expert, of Inmobiliaria Real Estate Agents in Ciudad Quesada & published author of “Moving Forward – 25 Essential Rules Of Buying & Selling Real Estate Without Going Crazy.” Request your FREE copy today! So you’ve holidayed together many times. Hey, you even think of each other closer than friends, and more like family. Now you’ve decided you want to buy your dream home in Spain, and what could be better than including your friends in on this magical dream too? Well, you need to think this through very carefully…. The idea of joining funds together to buy something more substantial sounds great, and creating your own type of “timeshare” seems extremely appealing, but it’s not all a bed or roses. Over the years, I’ve had my fair share of buyers that jointly purchase property, with either their close friends or family, only to find out later, that it was one of the worst decisions they made. It all started out great, but in the end, not only couldn’t they agree on dividing their time spent in the mutual home equally, but couldn’t agree on furnishing style, or who would pay for what, when things needed replacing. If you are still keen to purchase a property with another family, try creating your own little “community fee” between you. That way, if anything needs replacing or repainting, noone will have to begrudge putting their hand in their pocket. One major problem that could, and I’ve seen happen, is when one party wants or needs to sell the mutual home, and the other does not. Obviously, this could be a major hurdle,
as forcing someone to sell, can be very costly and very unpleasant. If I still haven’t dissuaded you, then the absolute best way to protect yourself, is to put everything you agree on, IN WRITING with a Solicitor. The same applies if you are including family members on the Title Deeds. Think long term first, before including any “in-laws” on your purchase. You may think you have a good relationship, well maybe you really do, right now anyway, but no-one knows what’s in the future, and there’s nothing worse than having to pay off your daughter’s ex-husband, for example, to have his name removed from your Title Deeds. Again, this can be very costly. If you’re buying a property, and putting it in your loved one’s name, there is a *clause in Spain called “usufructo.” This directly translates into English as “usufruct.” Simply meaning, that whoever you appoint, has the right to enjoy the use and advantages of a property that doesn’t belong to them. Using this “usufructo” clause, will allow you to remain in the property for as long as you wish, and even though you are not the legal registered owner, no-one can force you to vacate the home until you are ready to say Adios! So if you decide to buy a home with someone other than your immediate partner, it is a logical business deal, and make sure everything is agreed upfront and in writing. *With any legal matters regarding property law in Spain, it is always best to seek the advice of a local Lawyer.

tv PICK
World Cup Qualifier – ITV – 8.15 It is the biggest test of Gareth Southgate’s short reign as interim England coach as his side take on Scotland at Wembley in a World Cup qualifier. It is 20 years since Southgate was part of the national team who beat the Scots 2-0 at Euro 96 - a similar result would keep England in control of Group F. Gordon Strachan’s men suffered a disappointing 3-0 defeat in Slovakia last time out, so a victory against the 'auld enemy' would be a welcome morale boost. Mark Pougatch is joined in the studio by Ryan Giggs, Lee Dixon, Ian Wright and Ally McCoist with commentary from Clive Tyldesley, Glenn Hoddle and Kevin Gallacher.

Guardamar castle clean up This week work has begun to maintain and clean-up the mountainside surrounding Guardamar Castle, thanks to a much appreciated subsidy from the Provincial Council. The work is being carried out by a company contracted directly by the Provincial Council for a sum of €33,333.33. Councillor Silvestre García Barberá said: “The objectives include key points like stopping plagues of insects from advancing, invigorating the trees and
woodland growth, improving the landscape and reducing the risk of fire,
whilst causing minimal collateral damage to the vegetation or the soil.”

Pet Friendly Torrevieja Since Councillor Carmen Morate took up her responsibility for animals as part of the new government last May, she has maintained the ambition of making Torrevieja pet friendly. This means seeking out a beach that can accommodate dogs and finding and equipping parks where they can be allowed off the leash. However, Councillor Morate also recognises the importance of responsible animal ownership. On her agenda she has marked the ongoing problem of dog mess in the town, ensuring dangerous dogs are correctly licensed and the nuisance created by barking dogs. Her latest initiative is the creation of posters which can be displayed in bars and other venues that welcome animals. If you are a dog owner and want your pet to accompany you in your day-to-day activities then you might look out for this ‘Pet friendly’ poster. Suzanne O’Connell

e kick off on Tuesday with more of the Beatles duo who can be found at Pablo’s International. This week will be even more diverse as the duo will not only be covering fab 4 hits but also showing their diversity by bringing a mix of Eagles, Quo, Stones and many more to the evening. The bar is well known for not only its friendly atmosphere and affordable and delicious food but also for bringing top acts from all over the Costas. One of their new concepts is the “Double Bubble” show. The last one with 2 acts in one evening was so successful that Pablo’s will be continuing with a variety of acts for the rest of this season. On Thursday you can catch the stunning Rebecca Holt, who will be celebrating Remembrance Day with her wartime songs. She is followed by Rock n Roll favourite Johnny Scott. Wednesday evening Elche Children’s Care home will be having a star studded fundraising ball at The Emerald Isle. As usual lots of top acts have volunteered to help this worthy cause. You get the chance to see Stevie Spit, Kylie, Nikki G and Richie Alexander all on one show. Having worked with the volunteers of the charity, I know from personal experience how hard they all work to make sure that the children have not only day to day items but also get to experience life as ones with families do.

News
Calpe death The body of dead woman was found in Calpe after officers entered a ninth floor flat from where her husband had fallen to his death. The Civil Guard are investigating the death of the Belgian couple, both aged 75, who were believed to be on holiday. The woman had multiple fatal injuries. The incident took place at 8.45 am in a residential block of flats in the Avenida de Europa, where Civil Guard and Local Police were first on the scene. Preliminary investigations, which have to be confirmed, indicate that the man committed suicide by jumping from a window on the ninth floor. A passerby witnessed the fall and told the authorities that the man had landed on the cornice of the building. When the officers arrived at the scene, the body of the man had fallen on to the ground, and inside his pockets were the keys to the flat. When the officers used the keys they found the body of dead woman in one of the rooms. It is believed that she was the dead man’s partner and she had suffered ‘multiple injuries, which could have been the cause of death’ according to the Civil Guard. The Guardia Civil has taken charge of the investigation and is firstly considering that the deaths are centered around a case of domestic violence.

Closing dormant nuclear plants would create 100,000 jobs
Reading Alhambra Palace’s hidden messages
Six nuclear plants in Spain are now in disuse but have not been properly shut down and dismantled, Greenpeace has announced. The environmental organisation believes that taking down nuclear plants when their useful life ends and replacing them with renewable energy supplies would, as well as eradicating the health hazards they pose, create around 100,000 new jobs, declared the charity’s latest report. Five provinces in Spain house nuclear reactors – these are based in Garoña and Miranda de Ebro (Burgos), L'Ametlla de Mar (Tarragona province), Gárgoles de Abajo (Guadalajara), Trujillo (Cáceres) and the Ayora-Cofrentes valley in the community of Valencia. To raise awareness of their risks, Greenpeace staged a sponsored ‘zombie fun-run’ the day before Halloween in each of these towns and villages, although the race for AyoraCofrentes was held in Valencia city. They included a four-kilometre and a 10-kilometre version in all of them, with a €5 entry fee to be donated to the association Chernobil Elkartea. This latter charity has been working for 21 years for children who still suffer the consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. Many of the participants in the socalled Nuclear Running Dead races – named after the TV series The Walking Dead – dressed up as zombies.
Propaganda has always been a potent tool for the powers that be. In 13th century southern Spain, or Al Andalus as it was called under Muslim rule, the Nasrid dynasty made full use of propaganda, spelling out secret messages in ornate engravings on the walls, columns, arches, fountains and ceilings of the magnificent Alhambra Palace and gardens complex in Granada. Thanks to the painstaking work of a Spanish academic, we now know that most of the 10,000 inscriptions adorning the city are not, as was once thought, just snippets of poetry or extracts from the Koran, but are also references to conquests and other feats. The most common engraving is the Nasrid motto “Wa-la galib illa Allah”, meaning “There’s no greater conqueror than Allah,” a reminder to mortals of who was in power. So says Juan Castilla Brazales, an expert in Arab history and culture at Spain’s elite CSIC School of Arabic Studies, who has catalogued most of the epigraphs with the help of a team of 12 aides. This was a laborious process that involved locating each inscription, translating it into Spanish and English, linking it to similar inscriptions, photographing and drawing it. “It’s hard to find an inch that is free from inscription in the Alhambra,” says Castilla. “Even the muqarnas [decorative form of vaulting] sometimes have inscriptions on them. I’ve spent hours searching for epigraphs on the ceilings with my binoculars.”
Unlike European palaces and cathedrals, Arabic décor avoids human or animal motifs. Nasrid decorations rely on geometric and floral shapes and, in the absence of sculpture, on calligraphy, according to Castilla. “The Alhambra is not covered in poems or Koranic verses, because one of the main goals of the décor was to reinforce identity,” he says. “It was a kind of advertising.”
Hence there are frequent references praising Allah, such as “Thanks be to Allah” or “Glory to Allah”. To a lesser degree, there are brief inscriptions promoting abstract concepts such as happiness and glory, as well as blessings and phrases lauding the monarchy. Last of all, there are inscriptions from the Koran and poetry from some of the most brilliant scribes of the age. Juan Castilla and his team are now celebrating the completion of a work 500-year-old work in progress: after the Christian conquest of Granada in 1492, and with it the end of Arab rule in Spain, the Alhambra attracted sightseers intrigued by the meaning of the ins-
criptions. Translations were made of many of the poems, but not of the smaller epigraphs. The first attempts were made by local physician Alonso del Castillo in 1564. Job done However, Castilla wanted to complete the task, leaving no stone unturned. “I wasn’t content with just the inscriptions that are in plain view. I sought them all out.” He found inscriptions in cellars, under stairs and in places that hadn’t been touched for centuries. Asked if there is a link between each inscription and its location, Castilla explains that each sultan wanted to leave his mark and designed spaces according to the chosen epigraph. At times, quotes were invented for the occasion and in some other cases, familiar texts were used. The catalogue of inscriptions has been collected in the Epigraphic Corpus of the Alhambra, a set of eight bilingual books and interactive DVDs that explain the ins and outs of each inscription – its location, translation and context, accompanied by photos and drawings. The Spanish University Publishers’ Association has just awarded the translations the distinction of being the best national book edition in digital format. Reynaldo Fernández, director of the Alhambra and Generalife Trust and publisher of the work, hopes to have the final two book-DVDs on sale during the first half of 2017, thereby bringing to the light of day the last of the Alhambra’s secrets.

Man fakes own kidnapping to get ransom money A 21-year-old Spanish man has been arrested for faking his own kidnapping in order to try to extort 600 euros from his own mother to pay a debt, police have announced. The mother told the police in Parla, a Madrid suburb, that she had received text messages demanding that she leave the money at a secret location “if she wanted to see her son again and live in peace”, police said in a statement. The woman decided to go to the authorities despite being warned in the messages not to speak to police. Authorities found the young man several hours later in Parla. He told officers that his captors had released him and he had not been hurt. “Once in police custody the young man began to give imprecise and contradictory information until he finally admitted that he had made everything up to settle a debt,” the statement said. Police then detained the man and charged him with simulating a crime.

Martin via email asks: Hi Aunty. I‘m treating myself to new laptop for Christmas and I want to transfer all of my documents and photos from my old PC computer before I give it to my nephew. How do I do this so that no one can get my personal information or photos etc. on my old tower Aunty says: Hi Martin. Transferring your photos & docs from one computer to the other is pretty easy but it will depend on how well organised your files and folders are, and how much stuff you have. You can buy a 64GB USB flash memory stick for under €20 and use this to copy/paste everything from one machine to the other. On your old computer, right click on a folder and from the menu that pops up choose ‘copy’ and then right click on the USB stick and choose ‘paste’. The USB stick should appear after plugging it in as a new drive in My Computer or File Manager. Once you have double checked that you have everything from your old computer the only way to be 100% safe is to destroy the old hard disk as it isn’t too difficult to retrieve data even after Windows has been reinstalled. Bernard via email asks: Dear Aunty, I am having major problems with my Dell tower PC as it randomly and at no particular time it will simply shut down and I have to restart it again with the on/off button. Can you help me in any way to solve the problem? Keep up the great work. Aunty says: Hello Bernard. Normally when a computer repeatedly and randomly shuts down it is caused by overheating or a hardware fault. Blowing any fluff from the air vents at the back and around the sides may allow cool air to flow which can often improve things. As your problem is random then maybe also check you don’t have a loose connection where the power is plugged in. Keep me posted. Any questions, you can email me at: auntyvirus@costablancapeople.com and hopefully see you all next week.

Driving each other crazy When it comes to driving, we’ve all got plenty of complaints about our significant other’s habits. Some people drive too fast or follow too closely. Others don’t listen when we make suggestions. Some play loud music, blast the heat, or get lost (and refuse to ask for directions). Whatever your partner’s fatal driving flaw, you’re most definitely not alone in being annoyed by it. In fact, a survey carried out by Netquote.com says we get most annoyed when our partner won’t listen to our suggestions, when they drive too fast or when they tailgate. More than 50 per cent of those surveyed also hate it when their partners brake too hard, play a radio genre they don’t like, get lost, take a slower route, or turn the temperature too far up or down. Women are more annoyed with their partners for (in order) driving too fast, tailgating, turning down the heat or playing a radio station that they don’t like. Men, on the other hand, hate it most when their partner brakes too hard, drives too fast, parks badly, or tailgates – in that order. The one thing both genders agree on? The worst thing someone can do while driving is ignore their partner’s suggestions.

REAL MADRID BALE-D OUT – AGAIN With Cristiano Ronaldo having a strangely in-and-out season (which all seems to stem from his summer injury in France), it is just as well that his Welsh companion comes to the party when the Madrid sides need a goal. Facing newlypromoted and very physical Leganés, Bale scored twice in the first half, Morata adding a third after the interval in an altogether undistinguished match, as the
European Champions missed captain Sergio Ramos, Pepe, Casemiro and Benzema. Luka Modric was given a big ovation when he took the field for the last half hour. Earlier neighbours Atletico had fared worse, however, falling foul of two penalties when they visited Real Sociedad, Antoine Griezmann failing to score for the fourth consecutive game.
El Plantio 2 Golf Society On the 1st November, seven teams of three commenced a 'Shotgun Start' for a very enjoyable 'Texas Scramble'. Nearest the pins: Hole 2 - George Stanhope, Hole 5 - David Swann. 3rd Place - Handicap 6.08, Ian Henderson, Sandra Comer, Rod Loveday, Net 48.92 shots. 2nd Place - Handicap 6.03, John O'Brien, Keith Smith, Alan Scrimshaw, Net 46.97 shots. 1st Place - Handicap 5.32, Alan Janes, Mike Davies, Gary Needham, Net 46.68 shots. If anyone would like to join our Society, we play at El Plantio Golf Club on Tuesday, Friday and Sunday. We use both courses - the Par 3 nine hole course and the main 18 hole course, so we cater for all abilities. The membership rates are very competitive, so call for more details.

Your week in sport ■ CHRIS DARWEN Surely it would have been far more British for Murray to become the world’s number one tennis player and then lose in the final to John Isner? Andy Murray has toppled Novak Djokovic and sits top of the tennis pile for the first time ever. Murray will, presumably, count his Grand
adopted the same strategy and there are not enough Tests to go round. So Beefy will be calling upon his contact book that have helped him raise over £25m for charity. Well, it’s almost the same thing. Klitschko and Joshua are going to get it on in the summer of 2017. The much wanted heavyweight boxing bout will
Slam titles and Olympic medals as somewhat more important representations of his tennis legacy, but let’s be honest after British tennis being absolutely trash for decade upon decade it is nice to see him top the rankings. Even if it might only be for a week. Durham have chucked the ball that is their chairmanship to Sir Ian Botham and are asking him to bowl the spell of his life to save the county. Durham are massively in debt, having gambled on making Chester-le-Street a regular Test venue and investing money they could only recoup by having an Ashes Test there every other weekend.. Sadly for them, every country
take place outdoors in the UK in the middle of a British summer. I’ll let you think the obvious thoughts. Ireland beat New Zealand for the very first time at rugby on Saturday. If that does not sound too impressive, they have been playing each other for 111 years. The 4029 victory will go down in history, and probably annoy the Kiwi touring side enough that they batter everyone else in their path for the next month. The Autumn rugby internationals get underway for England next weekend, by which point the England cricket team could well be on their way to a humbling four day defeat against India.
Two more title-rivals were in direct opposition when Barcelona visited Sevilla, Vitolo putting the Andalucian side ahead after some 18 minutes. Messi – inevitably – levelled the score, and it was left to Suarez to score the winner after 61 minutes, and keep the Catalans in second place. Meanwhile, almost unnoticed, Villareal crept up into third place. Beating lowly Betis 2-0 may be no big deal, but their ‘goals-against’ record is now the lowest in La Liga, and they may well be a force to be reckoned with. Down at the bottom, Granada, after eleven matches, remain without a win, and could only draw at home to Deportivo. In the second division, Levante are currently running away with things, beating rivals Reus away to go ten points clear. Second now is Fernando Hierro’s Oviedo side, which has the best defensive record in the division. At the bottom end, Gimnástic de Tarragona, with one sole win from 13 games, are becoming detached. In division 2B, group 1 is being led by unbeaten Cultural Leonesa, who despite their Cup thrashing by Real Madrid, are well clear at the top. The rest of the groups
are all being closely fought. Albacete currently leading group 2, after last season’s descent. Local sides Hercules and Alcoyano are both riding high in group 3, whilst former group 4 leaders Marbella have all but lost their early grip. A curiosity there was the one-all draw between Jumilla and Lorca, both sides with Chinese owners. Between them, they rented the Murcia Condomina stadium, and more than 10,000 spectators watched the game (free, with all sorts of inducements!), as well as a Shanghai TV station – hmm! In England, Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool is now top, after hammering six past Watford. Manchester City missed a hatfull of chances to beat Middlesbrough, and the North London derby also ended in a draw, so that Arsenal stay behind. Meanwhile Chelsea thrashed Everton 5-0 at Stamford Bridge to come into contention, and Mancheester United at last found some form, getting the better of Swansea. Sunderland won for the first time this term, away at Bournemouth. Away from football, my brother, holidaying in Australia, will have had a smile on his face at the news that his hero, Andy Murray, has become World Nº 1, then promptly celebrated by beating John Isner to win the Paris Masters title. In figure skating, Spaniard Javier Fernández won the World Cup in Moscow to add to his impressive string of titles.

47 members and a few guests were greeted by a warm calm autumn day to play the 2nd round of our Eclectic Stableford competition. The golf course is now showing signs of heavy traffic from this extremely busy high season, added to that Campoamor is the only local course that over seeds the Bermuda grass at this time of year, so that when it goes dormant the golf course retains its green fairways.

Tales from the Top Flight ■ CHRIS DARWEN chris@costablancapeople.com
Sunday marked the 30 year anniversary of Sir Alex Ferguson taking over at Manchester United. In the next 30 years Fergie made a lot of errors but, understandably, people tend to recall the higher points. But let us never forget, Fergie felt Moyes was his natural replacement and that Chelsea were not title contenders in the 2016/17 season. Conte is like a manager that has suddenly stumbled on a tactic that works on Football Manager and he is going to never change it. And why would he? Chelsea’s 5-0 demolition of Everton even had Ronald Koeman reassessing his statement that Manchester City were the best side he had ever coached against. Chelsea were so far removed from what we saw earlier in the season that you can understand why they felt Mikel Alonso was a must buy. They have not failed to win in any of the matches the left wing back has played. 3-4-3, it has a future. So much of a future that the Poch decided to implement his version in the North London Derby where Harry Kane made his return. BT Sport were in serious danger of having a decent half time debate over Arsenal’s opening goal until their director cut it short. “None of that lads, people will start expecting us to get rid of Savage and Owen!” Obviously the game ended 1-1, because that was the only result that was going to happen. Before City played Middlesboro, Jose
disciple Aitor Karanka had claimed Pep was the second best manager in Manchester. He must really rate United’s new reserve team manager Nicky Butt. Karanka looked as though he may have a point, as well as claiming one at the Etihad. Boro stole a late draw in a game that City really should have put to bed far earlier. Considering sterling has dropped to a 200 year low, yes I will finally accept that Pogba is worth £89m. Jose’s plan to make Pogba look like the best player in the United side was to select Carrick, Felliani, Jones, Rojo, Young, Rooney and Zlatan around him. I had to admit I, like many, were a tad sceptical of United’s line up at the Liberty Stadium but Swansea really did choose to lie down and have their belly’s tickled. Jose is back hey? He certainly masterminded that victory which will give United’s Europa League push a huge kick start. It was a fine strike by Pogba though, leading to social media meltdown about how THAT proved he was good value for money. Yeah, £89m for a wonder goal against relegation certainties. I can see the value now. Ed Woodward must be feeling very smug. Adam Lallana and Jordan Henderson put in the kind of performance we will definitely not see against Scotland on Friday night. Watford showed that you cannot instantly just win by playing three at a back as the pace and skill of Liverpool’s movement almost matched Chelsea’s margin of victory. It wouldn’t be Liverpool without at least one chalked up in the goals against column though. Actually, is 6-1 better than 5-0?
Discuss. Raymond the Egg was quite quiet after the match as it is hard to keep criticising Klopp when he taken Liverpool top of the table. The West Ham directors were busy celebrating the real victory on Saturday. A trouble free day at the London Stadium passed by for both sets of fans. Lady Brady, ironically criticising people for heading into projects without giving them enough thought on the Apprentice last week, took to Twitter to celebrate the fact no fights broke out. West Ham and Stoke drew, just in case anyone is interested in what everyone turned up to watch. Sunderland manager David Moyes watches the game from the stands due to a one-match ban. Sunderland win first match of the season. Coincidence? Probably not. Bournemouth battered Sunderland, but if you don’t stop Victor Anichebe from looking like a beast of a striker then you do not deserve to win. Defoe netted the winner from the penalty spot. Sunderland’s win gave Hull a bit of a wake up call. They headed into Sunday’s match with Southampton needing something to cheer them up as fireworks weekend on the Humber is far from paradise. Their bonfire was most certainly lit with a 2-1 win. Leicester playing West Brom is back in the category of “I’ll give that one a miss” with Leicester clearly focusing their attention on all things European and WBA being, well, terrible to watch. That said, I chose to watch Oviedo put in a performance that would have had even
Albion fans banging their heads against the seats in an effort to stay awake. They certainly got the better deal, watching their side score twice to Leicester’s solitary strike. The champions sit just two points off the relegation zone. Would it be the right way to end this fairy tale story if they did go down? No, winning the Champions League and going down, there is another movie in that. I don’t think Pardew has won since that BBC documentary, has he? Even Alan is struggling to look smug right now and that England chat he was trying to drum up has certainly gone deathly quiet. It’s a great feeling to battle back from 2-0
down to get the game level, but it hurts even more when you then throw it away and still lose. Burnley have a better home record than some slightly bigger clubs this season. Dyche’s “Ginger Mourinho” nickname needs updating now, as it really does not do him justice. It cannot be the “Ginger Klopp” because, you know, Kloppo is already ginger.

Too easy for MONTE CD MONTESINOS 6 – 1 ATLETICO ORIHUELA CD Montesinos line up:- Dani, Manu, Bashir, German, Aureu, Koko, Fran, Alfredo, Dario, Joao, Macan. Subs:- Rodrigo, Fernando, Carlos Lorente, Vazquinho, Dimitri Scorers: - Macan (2), Vazquinho (2), Fran, Aureu.
Catorce B pair Brian & Tom won 3-0 for a 6-3 win. All 3 pairs from Lo Crispin Tavern won 2 games each for a 6-3 win. At Da Vinci’s Alpha all 3 pairs won 2 games each. 2 pairs from Spanglish Voles won 2 games each to get a win of 5-4. Sue & Jean F won all their game at Izzy’s Owls for a 7-2 win. Richard & Molly from Da Vinci’s Alpha won all 3 of their games to win 5-4. Casa Ventura Merlins had all 3 pairs winning 2 games each for a 6-3 win. Paul & Rudy won all 3 legs for Catorce A to get a 5-4 win.
CD Montesinos were in full flow at the weekend with a thumping six goal performance against Atletico Orihuela in a match watched by a good crowd at the Campo Municipal in Los Montesinos. The match started slowly with the visitors having most of the early play. However, after that initial start, it was all “Monte” who dominated the game and went on to claim all the points in what will probably be one of their easiest matches of the season. Two goals from Club Captain Macan, another couple from second half substitute and crowd favourite Vazquinho, a goal from Aureu, and finally, one goal added by Fran were more than enough to send the crowd home in good spirits. Monte went into a two goal lead with Macan opening the scoring after 18 minutes. That advantage was doubled on 29 minutes by top scorer Aureu who was pushed into the centre forward’s role covering for the injured Carlos. On 40 minutes the visitors pulled one back when their big centre forward headed home from a needless free kick and that was the half-time
score. With manager Carlos Perez not making any changes at half time, his side responded almost from the start as Fran made it 3-1. From that point onwards there was only ever going to be one winner as the visitors looked visibly beaten and to make it even harder for them, Carlos Perez brought on crowd favourite Vazquinho on 70 minutes who added a fourth goal
within minutes of coming on. Just before that goal, Vazquinho was brought down on the edge of the penalty area by the last defender, but the match official, who was good throughout the game, gave a free-kick and refused to show any colour of card to the defender, which bemused the
crowd somewhat. On 80 minutes, Vazquinho, who was getting a lot of verbal stick from the Atletico Orihuela defenders from the moment he came on, produced his usual piece of magic, went round a defender and scored his second and “Monty´s” fifth goal of the game. His celebrations, directed at the opponent´s defenders, were not the most subtle and the referee deemed them to be offensive and produced a straight red card. Even going down to 10 men did not stop Monte from scoring a sixth goal as Macan scored his second of the game just before the final whistle to clinch a resounding 6-1 win for Monte, their biggest win of the season so far. Overall this was a good performance, probably the best of the season. The good work being done by new manager Carlos Perez and his assistant, Angel Ivan, is easy to see. The side look fitter, they are more aggressive and determined and work very hard for each other. If you add our new arrival this week (Manu) in the heart of the defence we now look like a side well capable of moving up the table. The next match will test us to the full as entertain league leaders Callosa Deportiva “B” at home on the weekend of 12th/13th of November.

PLEASANT BUT NOT EXCITING RACING ABBEY ANGLING We fished the 8th round of the Winter Series on the river Segura at Murcia on the 1st November. The rains of the past week has given the river a good flush through, which was needed, but it makes driving under the bridge to the pegs virtually impassable. So the match was fished on the first stretch, although it did not improve the fishing, Bill Reade did manage to find a few fish to take 1st place with just under 8kgs, the only other decent weight was by Mick Hill with over 7kgs for 2nd place , all taken on feeder and corn
RODS & REELS This week’s Open Match was fished on the Embalsa de Pedrera on the 2nd November. Fortunately the weather this last week has been good making access possible, and the lake has risen up about 10 inches to a foot, but the fishing was hard going. The feeder is still the method to be used here, and Jim Rouse had a good day winning the match with just under 9kgs, especially as Bill Reade was in the next peg and only managing to take 2nd place

So many members of the Balaton Group arrived for the SAMM race day on Sunday 30th October that two of the founder members had to stand down so three new members could experience racing for the first time in the group’s three day boats. They were joined by four Shoestring Group dinghies and one independent boat. The morning race was delayed by lack of wind but at 12 noon it had come in at 4 knots and the Balaton boats started. Sirocco made a poor start and crossed the line with the dinghies at 12.05pm but made up her deficit and was the first day boat to finish.
The conditions suited Don Clark in his Hartley. He soon led the fleet and finished the first lap in a slow 29 minutes, Sirocco took 52 minutes. This slow pace forced the Race Officer to shorten the race to 3 laps which all the dinghies finished by 2.45pm. The Balaton boats
needed a stronger wind to sail their best so took around 45 minutes longer. As the clocks had gone back and it would get dark earlier the second race was kept at three laps and started at 15.00 hours. The wind had increased to 6 knots and again Don was in the lead by the end of the first lap and held it to the

finish. Mistral had sailed badly in the first race coming in last and it was apparent from the Committee boat during the second race that something was amiss as she was crabbing sideways on the beat. Her rig and keel need urgent investigation to locate the problem. There was some close racing at times, especially when a dinghy overhauled a day boat and the results were. First race: Harltey, Shoestring Dos, Shoestring Uno. Second race: Hartley, Shoestring Cuatro,
CD Torrevieja 1 - 0 Silla Surprise Silla! Consecutive clean sheets and consecutive wins has shown fans exactly what CD Torrevieja can achieve with good management and positive play. Only five minutes had elapsed when Lewis picked out Hugo in the box. The burly striker had to make space for himself by edging left of centre, seemingly losing his chance.
But he then deftly chipped the ball diagonally into the far corner of the net for an exquisite goal. That may have taken Silla by suprise, but they had further shocks to withstand. Torry lost star goal machine Pastor on Thursday night in a training injury, but the rugged wingman is confident of being fit for this weekend´s coming clash in Torre Levante. His place was taken by teenager Booker who has been a revelation this term, breaking
into the team with some mature performances. With Damian displaying his exceptional craft, Lewis his phenomenal workrate and Salazar covering every opposition play, the Torry midfield was full of youthful vigour and determination. Silla, however, is a decent side and they got a foothold in the game, bringing out the very best in Carrasco
and Juanmi. Carrasco never put a foot wrong and is an extremely accomplished and versatile player. He is instrumental in Torry´s success. Juanmi had the game of his life, making numerous telling tackles and interventions and always making the right judgement in terms of his ball play. Aided by Luis Carlos and the vim of Vicente, this Torry rearguard is playing out of their skins. Add to that the brilliance of Buba in goal and it is
clear to see why the team has moved up the league table in consecutive weeks. Torry should have put the match to bed in the second half with at least three golden opportunities going begging. Mattheus had another storming game, working tirelessly for the team, but when one on one with Lucas in the Silla goal, he missed the target - not by much, but he should have buried it. Then Booker intercepted a pass and drove hard on goal as defenders chased him for all they were worth. As he reached the box, instead of blasting it into the net, he tried to pick our Lewis on his left, sending the player deep to the touchline and wasting the chance. Lewis then worked hard to break free and bear down on goal from the right hand side. With Matheus alone in the box it would have been easy to slip him the ball and let the winger tap it home. Lewis, with the ball on his favoured left foot, chose to try his luck, grazing the far upright as the ball went wide.Torry almost rued those missed chances as Buba was called upon to make a superb reflex save to concede a corner in the dying minutes. Again, late on, substitute Kerman got his shot all wrong, with the goal at his mercy, injurying himself in the process. But Torry deserved the victory and duly celebrated their back to back successes. There is good news and bad ahead of Torry´s trip to mid table Torre Levante this weekend, where they will re-acquaint themselves with last year´s
Team: Buba, Vicente Boix, Luis Carlos, Juanmi, Carrasco, Dani Salazar, Matheus (Kerman 88’), Booker, Hugo Salamanca (Buza 49’), Lewis (C) & Damián. star turn, Ruben Sanchez. The bad news is that Juanmi is off to play for 2B side CD Tudelano. The club has a policy not to stand in the way of any player who receives an offer from a higher league club and have honoured that pledge. Based on his display on Sunday, he will be sorely missed. Gal scorer Hugo had to be helped off the pitch with an injury, soon after the restart and it is not yet known how serious this is. On the positive side, Pastor syas he will return to action and the club expects to have completed the paperwork for at
least three new players, shoring up the central defensive psositions, especially in the continued absence through injury of Martin. The team is far from out of the woods, but the spirit, ability and industry that each and every player puts into every match suggests that the battle for a much higher league place is eminently attainable. Another win this weekend in Valencia and no one will have any doubts about that. Jeff Scott Vice president CD Torrevieja
