Prescribed medication causes misery ■ MIREILLE TODDINGTON mireille@costablancapeople.com

T

wo years ago Barbara Arnold went to the doctors with bronchitis, but instead of the prescribed medication curing Barbara’s chest infection it drastically changed her life forever, leaving her with terrible, debilitating side effects. Barbara, who lives in Sax, was prescribed ciproflaxin an antibiotic from the group known as ‘fluoroquinolones’ and at the same time was given cortisone injections and the result was devastating. Barbara said: “The reaction was like a bomb going off in my body. It started with searing pain in my Achilles tendons, at the time I stupidly believed that it was caused by changing my high heeled shoes to low heels and then walking too far. I had no idea that my

body was being poisoned by the medication. I had great difficulty walking but I believed it would soon get better, but how wrong I was.” Barbara later found out that fluoroquinolones are ‘contra-indicated’ or not recommended, in layman’s terms, to anyone over the age of 60 years and especially alongside cortisone injections. Fluoroquinolones leach magnesium from the cells, and as people age their bodies naturally have less magnesium, hence the conflict in older people. Of course, at the time Barbara was oblivious to these facts and continued with the medication and injections. The pain got worse and her tendon eventually ruptured leaving her barely able walk a few yards. She then started to experience chronic fatigue to the point where she could hardly keep her eyes open, this was accompanied by dizziness and problems with balance. After three months and many visits to

the Doctor, Barbara eventually saw a Rheumatologist who diagnosed her condition as the side effects of Ciproflaxin. Having no idea what the drug was Barbara did some research on Fluoroquinolones and what she discovered terrified her. Barbara said: “These antibiotics are regularly being prescribed for simple infections such as bronchitis, bladder and sinus infections – which is the equivalent of using a sledge hammer to kill a fly. There are many other safer antibiotics that could be prescribed without the devastating side effects that can be caused by Fluoroqinolones.” The symptoms of fluoroquine poisoning are wide ranging and in some people the reaction does not occur until months after the medication has been taken. They include: musculoskeletal damage with degeneration of cartilage and tendons, Continued on page 3

BITE SIZE NEWS: International tapas day

On the 1st October it will be International Tapas Day. Restaurants and bars in Torrevieja are celebrating by offering tapas and a drink at the price of €2.50. You can take advantage of this offer from midday,12pm until 4.30pm and into the evening from 7.30pm until 11pm. Over forty bars and restaurants in Torrevieja are participating and you can find out which and where they are on the website: www.shoppingtorrevieja.com Participating establishments span from La Mata to Rocio del Mar. There will be two complimentary buses running to and from the centre of town. One from Torrevieja – La Mata and the other Torrevieja – La Siesta. They will run from 11.30am until 4.00pm and will pick people up from the main bus stops on the usual bus route. Each bar or restaurant has to offer a minimum of two different types of tapas with a drink for the price of €2.50.

Shop in Torrevieja That’s what the shop keepers in the town would like you to do this year. So much so, that a promotional video is being made which shows the different stores in town. The video is called ‘Here, our autumn is your summer’ and the stars are the shop owners and businesses of Torrevieja. In some cases clients and family members feature in the familiar scenes acted out in the town centre. The cameras show the day-to-day lives and work of the shopkeepers and it is intended to circulate the video on social media. The aim is to increase the number of those choosing to shop in town, Continued on page 5

Unfortunately for Barbara, her condition kept deteriorating and she became wheelchair bound. Not only was it extremely painful to walk, her legs felt like dragging lead weights. During the months that followed Barbara had numerous blood tests which showed nothing apart from high ferritin levels (which indicates an iron storage disorder and can be linked to a chronic disease process) and was referred to yet another Rheumatologist. Medical warning Through her research Barbara discovered that there was a ‘Black Box Warning’ in America on all Fluoroqinolones. This is the highest warning issued and some 18 months later, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has just advised all doctors in the USA to stop issuing these drugs to patients unless it is a life or death situation. Barbara said: “I have spent thousands of pounds in natural supplements trying to cure myself as my Doctors did not seem have any answers to my condition. I have recently seen an integrative Doctor who is also a Medical Doctor. He is in Marbella and I had to travel five hours to see him, but I have no choice if I want to recover. The medical health care system here poisoned me and now I have to heal myself with all the costs

that incurs. “I fully understand that Doctors cannot be expected to know the side effects of every drug they prescribe, but this group of drugs is completely different as they are one of the most dangerous drugs on the market. “This has been known since the 1970’s and the attitude of the pharmaceutical companies beggars belief; they are more interested in making money than protecting people. It is only now, with the advent of the world-wide-web, that the real danger of Fluoroqinolones is becoming common knowledge and thousands of people are now sharing their horrendous experiences. “I want to warn Costa Blanca People readers about taking Fluoroqinolones. If you are not sure what your Doctor is prescribing please ask or double check with them that the antibiotic you are being given is not one of the Fluoroqinolones family.” Barbara is currently receiving Ozone Therapy in Alicante. She is half-way through the 12-treatment course and is thankfully seeing some encouraging results. Common Fluoroqinolones and brand names: Ciprofloxacin (Cipro), enoxacin (Enroxil, Penetrex), fleroxacin (Megalone, Roquinol), lomefloxacin (Maxaquin), nadifloxacin (Acuatim, Nadoxin, Nadixa), norfloxacin (Lexinor, Noroxin, Quinabic, Janacin), quinolone, ofloxacin (Floxin, Oxaldin, Tarivid), pefloxacin (Peflacine), rufloxacin (Uroflox).

Schools asked to choose their language A decree of multi-lingual education is being proposed in Valencia to increase the use of Valencian and English to teach other subjects. The proposal would affect all Valencian community schools with the chief aim of increasing the amount of Valencian spoken. Valencian is the local language which is currently taught alongside Castellano (known to most of us as Spanish) in state schools. However, most subjects are currently taught in Castellano rather than Valencian. Spain has a number of local languages in addition to Castellano, including Galician, Catalan, Basque and Valencian. In order to be employed in Valencia in some official positions you have to be able to speak Valencian.This is one of the main reasons given for ensuring that it is taught in schools in the community. However, the reasons behind the recent push to increase its use go much deeper than this. When the dictator, Francisco Franco was in power, local languages were outlawed and you could be imprisoned if you were heard speaking them. The use of Valencian is a political statement and now the Valencian government want to ensure that this local language’s future is guaranteed. It is being proposed that local schools can choose the level of bilingualism they deliver. The options are: 1. Basic (level 1 and 2) – all the curriculum will be delivered in

Castellano (Spanish) except for two or three subjects in Valencian and two in English 2. Intermediate (level 3 and 4) – more prominence is given to Valencian with 57% of subjects taught in Castellano and 23% in English. 3. Advanced (levels 5 and 6) – all subjects taught in Valencian except for two in Castellano and two or three in English The teaching of subjects such as Music and Art in a language other than Spanish has grown in momentum over the past few years. It is seen as a way of

improving competence in other languages without dedicating more time in the curriculum. However, there are those who say that it does not improve language learning and impedes understanding of the subject which is being taught. It is also claimed that it can be disadvantageous to children who are less able at learning languages or whose parents don’t send them for additional tuition. It can prevent them from having a full understanding of a subject that they may have particular strengths in, such as technology.

BITE SIZE Next steps in the budget consultation NEWS: Continued from page 3 particularly in the run up to Christmas.

Walk for Life AECC Torrevieja(Asociación Española Contra el Cáncer) are holding their second annual Walk for Life (Marchapor la Vida) on Sunday 16th October at 10.30am. It will start at the statue of the Hombre del Mar and end at Las Columnas on the Playa del Cura. The Walk is being supported by the Rotary Club, Torrevieja town hall, Carnicas Rios, IMED Hospitals and the AECC. Donations of €5 will be welcomed and it is hoped that as many people as possible will come out to support.

Mayor’s disappointment at budget stalemate The mayor, José Manuel Dolón has expressed in a press releasehis disappointment at the failure of the council to pass the budget. He accuses the thirteen councillors who voted against it of putting services at risk for the people of Torrevieja. The budget is the first one to be put forward by the new government team. The proposed budget had included money set aside to bring the waste collection and cleaning services under town hall control. The mayor claims that this would ultimately lead to a significant saving for the town and claims that the reason for voting against it by the opposition parties needs to be clarified. ‘They have impeded the transformation of the town. The people of Torrevieja are going to lose money and have a less efficient service,’ said the mayor.

La Mata festival The patron saint of La Mata is la Virgin del Rosario and now is the time when residents of La Mata celebrate her each year. Spanning several days of festivities, this weekend saw a new event; ‘autos locos’ or ‘wacky races’. All kinds of different and unusual vehicles had been created, the only common feature being that they had four wheels. 15 participants had registered in this make-your-own car event and there was all manner of contraptions taking part. Entries came from Torrevieja, La Mata and other parts of the Vega Baja. After two laps of the circuit in their machines, first place went to ‘El Obispo – El Gallinero’ from Almoradi. In second place was ‘Los Patricios’ from Torrevieja and in third place ‘La lechera’ from La Mata. All the teams were dressed up and the designs were original and entertaining. The trophies were presented by the Queen of salt, Marta Andreu and her lady in waiting, Laura Blanco. After the competition there was dancing to ‘Disco Móvil’. The celebrationsin La Mata will continue until October 7th and events to come include inflatable bulls, brass bands and the traditional procession of the Virgen del Rosario.

Continued on page 6

For the first time in its history, Torrevieja provided an open meeting in order to allow the general public to contribute to the debate about the town’s budget for 2017. The meeting was held on Monday, September 19th. Suggestions had already been received for what people would like included in the budget and those attending the meeting took a vote to indicate which suggestions should have priority. The results of the voting included: • The creation of municipal housing (45 votes) • A leisure centre for young people (35 votes) • A house for non-profit associations (33 votes) • The creation of a public nursery for children from 0 to 3 years old (33 votes) • Increase in bike paths and a service for lending out bikes (11 votes) • The completion of the la Siesta- El Chaparral park (2 votes) This was the final stage in the consultation process and enabled further

discussion about the proposals that had been put forward. The open meeting was also an opportunity to clarify the other proposals put forward by the council for next year’s budget including: • Cleaning up and tidying parts of the town and the beaches • Street lighting • Improving public highways and pavements • The maintenance of parks and gardens The cost of these different suggestions will now be calculated and their viability considered. Three additional suggestions have been put forward since the consultation closed relating to Torreta II, the bus station and the shipwrights ship in the port area. During the assembly there was discussion about the need to pass the budget for 2016 and the town hall’s intention to transfer the refuse service over to become a public rather than a private service.

Brit expat rescued after fall and three days home alone A British man who spent three days without food or water after a fall in his home was rescued in the nick of time by police in El Campello, near Alicante city. The 69-year-old had slipped on the kitchen floor and was unable to get up, meaning he had been lying in the same position for more than 72 hours by the time he was found. A neighbour who had not seen the expat for three days – which he said was ‘unusual’ – raised the alarm, since the victim lives alone and the man who called for help did not have a key to his house. As the apartment is on the fifth floor, police had to risk their own lives to get inside. They tried, without success, to break the front door down, and in desperation climbed across from the neighbour's balcony onto that of the ailing British man. One false move could have led to a

multiple tragedy, since the balconies are 20 metres (65 feet) above ground. But they made it, and managed to clamber through the window. The pensioner was on the kitchen floor in a very weak state due to his hunger and thirst – in fact, medics say he was ‘hanging onto his life by a thread’. He was rushed to hospital in neighbouring San Juan (Sant Joan d'Alacant) and admitted to intensive care. Authorities in the province of Alicante, particularly in coastal areas which are home to a high number of retired expatriates, are becoming concerned about the welfare of those who live on their own. Many are now very long-term residents, but have divorced or become widowed since moving to Spain and, even where they are still young and in good health, could easily suffer a similar fate to the man in El Campello if they had a bad fall at home.

A Sunny Day, Stevie Spit and money for Elche children’s home It had been billed as a day of storms and torrential rain. Instead, the Costa Blanca came good with a beautiful sunny day for the sponsored walk for Elche Children’s Home. This annual walk has become a favourite for dressing up, enjoying the sea views from La Mata and supporting a very important cause. This year, three ‘clowns’ joined the thirty or more participants who enjoyed the sponsored walk of four kilometres along the front between El Kiosko at Cabo

Cervera and Hostel Alba at La Mata. Those taking part were spoilt on their return to El Kiosko as Stevie Spit entertained them with his special brand of humour. Stevie gave up his time on a very busy Saturday to put on one of his best dresses, a little lippy and entertain. Ken and Lynn Adams, who had organised the event, were appreciative of the time that Stevie gave. Even though there were a few less on the walk itself, the money raised could have broken last year’s

record. Although it’s early days, the amount collected so far is around €2,500. ‘We are very grateful to everyone who has made it a success this year,’ explains Lynn. ‘We were stunned at the €800 raised by Carmen’s Bar and Bar Kenz has raised €150 as well. There are so many people to thank but I would like to mention Claire at The Costa Blanca People for sponsoring us, TKO for putting it on air and Molly Cook and Joan McCloud for collecting the money.’ A deserving charity Elche Children’s Home currently houses 18 young people between the ages of 12 and 18. These young people have often experienced traumatic home lives and suffer from low self-esteem as well as having a number of emotional and educational needs. The staff at the home work hard to try and ensure that they have as much support during these important teenage years as they can, ready to start their adults lives. Annette English is a voluntary fundraiser for the home. She visits regularly and knows at first hand just how difficult life can be for the young people there. ‘As if finding your way through the teenage years isn’t enough,’ explains Annette. ‘They must do this with troubled

histories and having experienced separation too.’ The aim of the home and those who support it, is to make the journey to adulthood as smooth as possible. The money raised is put to very good use and isn’t spent on luxuries. ‘Most of what we need is quite basic stuff,’ explains Annette. ‘At the moment we need new duvets for the beds and bed linen. The children need clothes for the winter and trainers in particular.’ The annual walk is one of the events which raises money for the home. ‘We are very appreciative of everyone’s efforts here today,’ says Annette. ‘We would ask that if you do think you might like to collect money for the home at your event that you contact us. We need to be able to co-ordinate activities.’ You can contact Annette and Roger through the Facebook page Elche Children’s Care Home or by calling Roger on 966722530 or 682250389. Events to come Three more events are lined up to raise money for the home. On the 20th October at the Marjal Camping & Resort in Catral, Richie Alexander will be performing. On the 4th November The PDQ band will be performing at the

Quesada Country Club and on the 9th November there is a charity ball being held at the Emerald Isle which will also feature Stevie Spit amongst others. Stevie Spit has raised money before for the home, including money to provide floodlights for a football pitch so that the children have somewhere to play in the winter evenings. He doesn’t make a fuss about his fundraising efforts, but his involvement has made a big difference to the amount that has been raised. Annette is also keen to make sure that those who raise money for them know exactly what is being bought. ‘We have just bought six hairdryers and some hair straighteners,’ says Annette. ‘There is very little funding for the home and if our community didn’t raise the money they would have nothing but the bare essentials.’ It’s important to remember that these children are there through no fault of their own. Of all different nationalities, they attend local schools and making sure they blend in with the other children is a priority. The money raised on Saturday will go towards ensuring a brighter future for them. Suzanne O’Connell

Offenbach (Germany) 40.3% Fuengirola (Spain) 38.5% CA Val de Francia (France) 38% Frankfurt (Germany) 34.6% Benidorm (Spain) 32.8% These statistics are explained in the Spanish paper Expansión by the proportion of people who come to the Spanish coast to retire. A fact which also explains other statistics that have been published about Torrevieja. Another graph, published in the same paper, places Torrevieja at the top of the charts again. This

time for those residents who are older than 65.Torrevieja is top with 43.9% of the town’s population followed by Ferrol with 40.7% and Salamanca with 40%. Fuengirola also features in the list having 31.2% of its population in this age group. It’s not surprising given these statistics that Torrevieja was previously identified as having the lowest average income in Spain of €13,980. Suzanne O’Connell

Damning report claims Spain ‘failing refugees’ Spain has been slammed for ‘failing’ to keep its promise to help with the refugee crisis. A new report from NGO Oxfam Intermon says the country has so far taken only 1 percent of the roughly 15,000 refugees it agreed to house in accordance with an EU redistribution plan, which was created to take some pressure off an overwhelmed Greece and Italy. “Spain is very far away from

fulfilling its promises,” the Oxfam Intermón paper states. “The Spanish Government has only followed through with one percent of the amount it committed to: just 201 of the 15,888 people it promised to take have arrived.” The report, entitled ‘Spain has failed in response to the global refugee crisis’, says Spain, being one of the top 20 economies in the

world, has enough resources to do more but lacks enough ‘political will’. They point to the €40 million spent every year on repairing and reinforcing border fences in Ceuta and Melilla compared to the €16.3 million it allocated to the CETI refugee centres. The report urges Spain to make ‘radical changes’ to its migration policy

Valencia school forced to let ‘hiyab' pupil back to class A Spanish teenager of Moroccan descent has been allowed back to school after over a week at home following the headmaster's orders that she should not return if she planned to wear her hiyab, or headscarf. Takwa Rejeb, a Muslim born in Spain to Moroccan parents and planning to study an FP (Formación Profesional, or the Spanish answer to the BTEC route) in tourism, was sent home from the Benlliure high school in Valencia based upon what SOS Racism called ‘a closed and overly-literal interpretation’ of the centre’s dress code, which bans balaclavas, woolly hats and baseball caps if they obscure the wearer's face. A hiyab just covers the hair and throat, and is very similar to the hair-covering scarves often worn by African, AfroCaribbean or Afro-Latin women, and is a cultural as well as a religious symbol. Regional education authorities, headed up by minister Vicent Marzà,

tackled the issue with the school in question and with others which have taken a similar attitude. Marzà's department says it plans to draft an urgent regional law on school dress code to prevent similar situations from recurring. “Our ultimate aim is to guarantee the right to education for all pupils, and we need to draw on all tools necessary to encourage acceptance and tolerance of cultural diversity in Valencia region schools,” education authorities say. The General Directorate of Education Policy is planning a day-long conference on ‘new challenges and social contexts’ to ‘deal with cultural diversity in the classroom’ and ‘ensure good inter-cultural practices’ in schools. The student Takwa Rejeb says she is ‘very satisfied’ by the positive solution to her problem and the speed with which authorities have acted. “I'm delighted that it has not just ended

up as yet another issue that ‘we’re working on changing’. This is the 21st century, and it's a century of change,” she stresses. “The most important issue is to guarantee everyone's rights, and we all have the right to go to school. “Also, my wearing a hiyab does not harm anyone. “I hope my case serves as an example for other schools – bit by bit, we should all put our two-penn’orth in and eventually, positive change will happen.”

Year-round attraction The Sierra Nevada has become an all-year attraction as 42,000 tourists visit during summer period and the summer thrill seekers are estimated to have spent around €8 million in local hotels, restaurants and businesses. This is the first time the Sierra Nevada has had an influx of tourists through the summer and there’s not been a snowflake in sight. From 25th June to 4th September some 42,000 visitors flew into the

mountain range above Granada, pumping a sizeable amount of money into the area. Minister of Tourism Francisco Javier Fernandez praised the entrepreneurial spirit of local businesses for evolving from the busy winter season to the usually lessfrequented summer season. “The goal is that the Sierra Nevada is closed for the shortest possible time so that it can continue generating wealth and employment,” he said. “In this sense,

it has evolved into an all-year market through our ‘seasonal adjustment plan’, which has allowed the Sierra Nevada to attract an increasing number of visitors every summer since 2010.” The minister also highlighted a 40 percent increase in summer activities, which was ‘especially visible’ at the new bike park. Bird watching and mountain hiking is also on the up in the region with the ministry of environment support the tourist industry plans.

WEEKLY EURO UPDATE

T

he euro had no problem staying ahead of the British pound this week. It picked up a cent and a quarter on the week, extending its post-referendum gain to 11%. Sterling was in trouble again as the Brexit monster was reported to be emerging from its lair. As in the last three months there were no actual sightings but the rumour mill was churning with talk of a "hard Brexit" and the chancellor was said to have given up hope of remaining in the EU's single market. Last Thursdays better than expected UK retail sales figures were overshadowed by the release of the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee meeting minutes on Friday: in which they stated that "a majority of members expect to support a further cut" if warranted by economic conditions. Already on the ropes the pound was dealt an knockout blow when it was reported that chancellor Philip Hammond had conceded Britain's membership of the single market would be inconsistent with immigration controls and EU president Donald Tusk said Britain's exit process will begin in January or February. With old Brexit inflicted wounds reopened, sterling supporters were quick to abandon its side. It was not such a good week for the euro on other fronts and it ended up with an average loss of -1% against the other dozen most actively-traded currencies. It lost half a US cent, partly because the Federal Reserve decided

not to increase dollar interest rates. The prospect of low rates for longer reduced investors' appetite for safehavens such as the euro and the Swiss franc Federal Reserve policy-makers were split 7-3 in favour of keeping US interest rates on hold at 0.5% on Wednesday evening, having increased them for the first time in nearly a decade last December – three officials opposing the decision equated to the most dissent since December 2014. However, minutes from the central banks September meeting revealed that the Fed committee believe ‘…the case for an increase in the federal funds rate has strengthened but decided, for the time being, to wait for further evidence of continued progress toward its objectives.' Hopes were immediately raised that the rate could be increased again this December, although this may be wishful thinking given the small matter of a presidential election in November. Next week in the eurozone attention will be firmly focused on Mario Draghi. The President of the European Central Bank will take the stand on Monday and Wednesday, during which time investors will be listening intently for any signals that the bank will add fresh stimulus. The most notable data release in the region occurs on Friday when the YoY Consumer price Index data is delivered.

Banco Popular to axe 3,000 jobs Spain's struggling Banco Popular has announced that it plans to axe up to 3,000 jobs, about a fifth of its workforce, in the latest round of cost cutting by a Spanish lender. The bank plans to close around 300 of its 2,000 branches in Spain as part of a restructuring, it said in a statement. “This restructuring process will affect between 2,900 and 3,000 people,” the statement said. The bank said it would negotiate the job cuts with unions. Banco Popular, Spain's seventh largest bank by market capitalisation, announced a costcutting plan in July, a month after raising 2.5 billion euros ($2.8

billion) in a share issue to clean up its balance sheet. Like other Spanish lenders, it is making a major push to sell off real estate assets, including repossessed homes, which are clogging up its balance sheet and eating into earnings. Banco Popular in July reported a second quarter net profit of just 122,000 euros and announced provisions on bad loans of 4.7 billion euros. Spanish banks, which slimmed down after a decade-long property boom went bust in 2008, are once again closing branches and slashing jobs as their profitability is hit by stiff competition.

Santander, the eurozone's biggest bank by market capitalisation, plans to close 450 smaller branches and cut 1,400 jobs in Spain, about five percent of the staff in its home market, through voluntary departures. Barcelona-based CaixaBank, Spain's third-largest bank, plans to cut 3,000 jobs, mainly through early retirement, as it seeks to trim its salary costs. Spain has the densest bank branch network in Western Europe, with 8.6 branches per 10,000 residents, according to consultancy Roland Berger. The average in the entire European Union is five branches per 10,000 residents.

Zara profit rise Zara owner Inditex profits rise following clothes sales surge. Spain's fashion retail giant Inditex, owner of popular brand Zara, has posted an eight-percent rise in first-half profits thanks to a surge in clothes sales around the globe. One of the world’s largest fashion retailers said profit for the six months from February to July rose to 1.3 billion euros ($1.4 billion) from the same time a year earlier.“All of the group’s brands increased their international

presence during the period, with 83 new stores in 38 countries,” Inditex said in a statement, adding that it ventured into three new markets -- Aruba, Paraguay and Nicaragua. Sales in the first half rose 11 percent to 10.5 billion euros. The results of the company, which operates eight store brands including Zara, upmarket label Massimo Dutti and teen-chain Bershka, beat analyst expectations, but only slightly. However, all brands posted a rise

in sales. Zara and home decoration brand Zara Home were the clear winners, posting a 13-percent and 17-percent rise in sales respectively. The retail empire was founded in 1975 by the discreet, publicity-shy Amancio Ortega, who has since become the world’s second richest man after Bill Gates. Its main competitor, Sweden's H&M, regularly challenges it for the global number one spot.

other acacia trees when their leaves are eaten by giraffes. This stimulates the growth of the spiny thorns that are the acacia’s main defence against giraffes. Plants can also “see” light; they grow towards light sources so as to promote growth and photosynthesis. Plants are also able to detect touch as is demonstrated by the carnivorous Venus Fly Trap. The steps of an unwary insect will cause the leaves to close and trap it. It is only when the imprisoned insect struggles to escape that the plant secretes the digestive enzymes that allow it to consume its prey. Anna also explained the ways in which plants can “taste”, growing towards sources of food and water. Plants are not at all helpless creatures, indeed their senses enable them to defend themselves very well. This area of research is relatively new. Future research will be most intriguing. Irene Davis, the Club’s Secretary hosted the meeting and also gave a fascinating talk about her “August Project”. Irene had asked at a local garage if she might have some old tyres! Over the month she painted these tyres in lovely vibrant colours, lined them and filled them with compost and plants to fill a corner of her terrace.

This was the first meeting after the summer break, and it was busy and very interesting one. Members had taken photographs of wildlife in their gardens for the first competition of the season. There were photographs of snakes, insects and many other creatures. The joint winners were Mitch Fell, with a photo of a lizard, and Roger Wagstaff who had photographed a mantis. An avocado growing trial had been inaugurated earlier in the year, and some members had had success with this. Plants in varying stages of development were shown, and although the plants were small they were obviously healthy and growing well. Anna van Djik then gave a very interesting and thought provoking presentation on the subject of the “Senses of Plants”. Her research showed very interesting results. American University experiments show that plants do indeed have a variant of senses akin to our own. Plants can “hear” the sound of a caterpillar eating a neighbouring plant. This triggers the production of insecticides in the leaves, making them less attractive to hungry caterpillars. It has also been shown that playing classical music to plants accelerates their growth. Acacia trees can “ smell” the gasses given off by

Valencia ex-Mayor gets pay rise to €7,000 Valencia’s ex-mayor Rita Barberá has multiplied her salary by nearly a third as a result of leaving the PP party but hanging onto her Senator's seat. After the Supreme Court confirmed that she was under investigation for alleged money laundering and accepting bribes to finance the PP's electoral campaign last spring, Rita agreed to resign from the right-wing party at the request of its top-ranking national government members.

However, she refused to give up her seat in the Senate, which 'travels' with the person and not the party, and means she will continue in the role as a non-affiliated Senator. Cynics initially believed she wanted to hang onto the Senate because it would ensure her continued diplomatic immunity, whereby any legal case against her goes straight to the Supreme Court, leapfrogging the lower tribunals. But it has since been revealed she will earn an extra €2,321 per month as a Senator not linked to a political party. Already, Rita earns €2,813 as a wage

from the Senate plus a further €1,822 as a 'local allowance' because her main residence is not in Madrid, where the role is based – a total of €4,635 a month. Once her resignation from the PP, of which she was a founder member until she resigned on Wednesday, is complete, her monthly pay will go up to €6,956. This is because the Senate groups are given an allowance which is split between members, and which some decide to use for personnel such as secretaries or consultants, but which does not have to be justified. The non-affiliated group, which has 16 members, earns €39,470 for its place in the Senate and, once Rita moves across to it from the PP, will have 17 members. And Rita will be entitled to one-17th of this €39,470 for 'expenses' which do not require receipts, authorisation or any form of record. Senators do not even have to pay their own transport for official journeys made as part of their role – their train, bus, boat or plane tickets are picked up by Parliament. All Senators are given an annual taxi card with a maximum credit of €3,000 on it, for use anywhere within the Greater Madrid region, plus a mobile phone and tablet to use in their jobs. The PP has said Barberá should give up her Senator role, but as soon as she agreed to their request that she resigned from the party, acting president of Spain Mariano Rajoy effectively washed his hands of the situation.“She's not on the PP now, so I have no authority over her,” he said.

Spain’s elite trains Iraqi’s to fight ISIS It took 36 days of fierce fighting to take the Iraqi city of Fallujah from so-called Islamic State (ISIS) in June. By the end of August, Iraqi armed forces were able to overrun Qayara in just 48 hours. In 2014, the jihadist militant group swept through the country, taking a quarter of its territory, scattering Iraqi troops before it. Two years on, ISIS is in retreat and has given up 40 percent of the areas it once controlled: the only important city it now holds is Mosul. “By the end of this year there will be fighting in Mosul, that’s for sure,” says the Spanish lieutenant colonel in charge of his country’s special operations unit in Iraq. The optimism after the successful turnaround in Iraq is due largely to Operation Inherent Resolve, a coalition of more than 40 countries led by the United States focused on defeating the so-called caliphate ISIS has set up in Iraq and Syria, in which Spain’s key role is training Iraqi forces. The training methods used by the 300 Spanish soldiers teaching their Iraqi counterparts are basic. “In Spain, training a soldier can take up to three years, but here we have to compact that into a few weeks. It’s impossible to prepare them for everything contingency, so we limit training to the specific situations they will face,” says Colonel Pedro Vázquez de Prada, in charge of the Besmayah base, where the Spanish contingent is located. This is the only such base not under direct US command, and the Spanish

soldiers here have trained around a third of the 25,000 Iraqi troops involved in Operation Inherent Resolve. For the moment, those Spanish forces are teaching Iraqi soldiers how to detect improvised explosive devices, known as IEDs, but not how to dismantle them. “If they can’t explode them, then they just mark their location,” says Colonel Vázquez de Prada.

Urgent need The Iraqi government is in a hurry and has cut back training time. The first soldiers the Spanish forces worked with were given up to three months training at Besmayah, a small town around 40 kilometers east of Baghdad. The most recent recruits are given one month. A team of Spanish green berets has recently been stationed at a base near Mosul to train Iraqi commando units in situ. The idea is to use them in the upcoming battle to take the city. General Sabah Yones, head of Iraq’s 36th Cavalry Brigade, and who is now

being trained by the Spanish forces, hopes his men will be the first to go into Mosul. “ISIS is defeated militarily,” says the head of the Spanish green beret contingent, known to his men as “Indio,” adding that Mosul will fall sooner or later. General John E. Novalis, second-incommand of the coalition, is more cautious. “We’re beating them, but we haven’t beaten them yet. They have lost the ability to hold onto territory they have conquered, but the jihadists that are still in Mosul [estimated at around 3,000] aren’t going to disappear, they’ll simply go somewhere else,” he warns. Baghdad is presumably one likely destination: there are now around half-adozen attacks in the capital every day, few of which make the international news. It remains to be seen if the patchwork Iraqi armed forces, sown together from a ragbag of ethnic groups, religions and tribal clans, can hold out against the tensions of the post war reconstruction.

Protected Bison slaughtered in Family murder was professional hit Valencia reserve Unknown attackers have targeted a herd of European bison living on a nature preserve in Spain’s Valencia region. Employees of the Valdeserrillas Reserve found the alpha male’s decapitated body last Friday. Three animals were gone, and the rest of the 12-bull herd was suffering from diarrhea, leading investigators to believe that the bovines may have been poisoned. The Civil Guard’s nature protection service, Seprona, is analysing whether poison might have been added to the animals’ food or water. The reserve’s communications chief, Rodolfo Navarro, said that director Carlos Álamo noticed something amiss a few days before. After noticing strange behavior in the animals and three bulls missing, a search party was sent out across the 365-hectare estate – the equivalent of 400 soccer fields. On Friday, the alpha male of the herd, a bull weighing 800 kilograms, was located

on the grounds; but the head was gone. He was described by Navarro as having been “the largest, healthiest and most beautiful specimen” in the herd. Investigators did not find any bullet wounds in the body, nor did any cartridges turn up in the vicinity. Because the alpha male was the first member of the herd to eat and ingested the largest amounts of food, he may have been the first to feel the effects of the poison, members of Seprona indicated. The three missing animals are still unaccounted for. The premises are fenced in to prevent the animals from escaping, but Navarro said it would be relatively easy for intruders to slip in because of the large size of the preserve. The 12 specimens of Bison Bonasus,

considered an endangered species, arrived in Spain between June 2015 and May 2016 after two years’ worth of paperwork with the European Union. The incident could entail a fine of €600,000. The Valdeserrillas reserve was created in 1972 for the study, preservation and reintroduction of species in the area of Los Serranos, in Valencia province.

Life threats for gay Spanish ref An openly gay Spanish soccer referee who came out earlier this year has been placed under police protection after a spate of death threats. Two police officers have been assigned to protect Jesús Tomillero Benavente, who lives in La Linea de la Concepción, close to Gibraltar, in Spain’s southern Cadiz province, since 11th September, the day after he refereed a youth match.

The 21-year-old had retired in May due to a barrage of insults he received at matches after going public about his sexual orientation. His decision to return to the pitch that Saturday sparked renewed verbal abuse, followed by online death threats. A minor league game between Atlético Zabal and Lassalle was interrupted after 48 minutes, when

someone in the stands yelled out: “Retire, you fag! Go on Big Brother, you queer!” Tomillero stopped the game and asked authorities to have the man removed from the premises. But he came back minutes later and continued to heap insults on the referee shouting: “You’re a ****ing faggot!” When the game ended, Tomillero filed a complaint with Andalusia’s soccer

The four members of a family whose remains were found early last Sunday morning in a house in Spain’s Guadalajara province had probably been dead for at least a month, investigators now say. The dismembered bodies of the two adults in their forties were found in plastic bags after a neighbor complained about a smell coming from the residence on a housing estate. The intact bodies of a five-year-old girl and a one-year-old boy were also found at the scene. Police believe the family was killed as payback in a drug dispute and that the killers were known to the family as there was no sign of doors having been forced. “Professional killers” carried out the murders, “probably with a butcher’s knife or an axe,” investigators said, citing the type of killing and the

“cleanness” with which it was carried out. “Death was rapid, there are no signs of torture. They didn’t suffer,” sources close to the investigation told Spanish national newspaper El Pais. Because of a lack of furniture in the house, police believe the family killed was on the run or in hiding. The decomposed state of the bodies suggests they had been dead for at least a month. Documents found in the house suggest the family came from Brazil, but this is yet to be confirmed by DNA testing. Neither drugs nor large sums of money were found in the house. Sources from the investigation said the family had rented the house a month ago. Police have cordoned off the property and are now focusing on vehicles that have entered the private housing development in the last two months.

federation and the National Police. But the threats simply moved on to the internet. “You’re a son of a b**ch, you’ve screwed the club. I hope you die of AIDS, you fag,” was one messages he received through Twitter. His Instagram account turned up images of a man with bullet holes in his head, and the caption: “The boss is very angry, he doesn’t like fags on his pitches, he advises you to either retire or die.” Ever since he went public in March of this year, abuse has been a constant

theme in his life. “Someone threw eggs at me on the street one day,” he says. “I am really, really scared,” he says, adding however that he will keep on fighting for his rights. Earlier this week Tomillero met with representatives of the European Parliament to discuss new protection measures for LGBT people in sports. “This was my last game for a while, but I will continue to defend our right to be wherever we like, even in the world of sports,” he says.

islands remain an overseas territory of the United Kingdom. Although in its early days, the Cayman Islands' most important relationships were with Britain and Jamaica, in recent years, as a result of economic dependence, a relationship with the United States has developed. Though the Cayman Islands are involved in no major international disputes, they have come under some criticism due to the use of their territory for narcotics trafficking and money laundering. In an attempt to address this, the government entered into the Narcotics Agreement of 1984 and the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty of 1986 with the United States, to reduce the use of their facilities associated with these activities. In more recent years, they have stepped up the fight against money laundering, by limiting banking secrecy, introducing requirements for customer identification and record keeping, and requiring banks to co-operate with foreign investigators.

Ports George Town is the port capital of Grand Cayman. There are no berthing facilities for cruise ships, but up to 4 cruise ships can anchor in designated anchorages. There are three cruise terminals in George Town, the North, South, and Royal Water Terminals. The ride from the ship to the terminal is about 5 minutes.

‘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

Is courage the greatest virtue of all? There is a tradition dating back to Ancient Greek philosophy rating courage as one of life’s cardinal virtues. There is a lot of moral cowardice around us in these times, but when you think about life, is it not the courage of a majority of people which keeps the ship afloat? You cannot live a good life without courage; but what constitutes courage? The first thing that springs to mind is bravery on the battle field; standing your ground in the face of threats, or the young Mayo footballer who doesn’t pull out of the tackle in an All-Ireland football final. Yes, this depicts courage, but courage takes numerous forms and many of us call on our courage reserves every day of our lives. ‘All it takes for evil to triumph is for enough good men to do nothing’. Think again about that one and the ‘sure it’s none of my business.’ We could fill the pages of this newspapers with examples of evil triumphing while others lacked the ounce of courage to shout ‘stop’ – or at least to proclaim ‘not in my name’. The courage of ordinary people to say that something is wrong when they see or hear about it is a vital antidote against corruption and the continuation of evil. The courage to face down our personal fears is a battle that only the person themselves knows about, but this happens around us every day. Every day we are faced with choices of varying impacts. The courage to decide to do what is right is often known only to ourselves and this is a greater virtue. Often too, being courageous can come at the price of being unpopular,

but self- respect cannot be achieved without the courage to endure some physical and mental pain. The virtue of courage can be developed if you believe it is worth the price. Courage gives you more control of your own life, as opposed to allowing outside influences to constantly dictate how you behave. Telling the truth takes courage because it can get you or someone you care about into trouble. Others will not always like you for it, but they will come to respect and appreciate you as a straight and honest human being. It takes courage to stand up for what you believe in. Every man has a free vote by way of having an opinion. It takes courage to write to this newspaper with your gripe and to sign your name at the bottom. Contrast this courage with the skulking anonymous message left on the web; or worse still, the cowardly piggy backer who will resort to the poisonous anonymous letter. None of us will be remembered for showing the odd spark of courage in a single action, but instead be judged on how we nurtured the habit over a lifetime. The mother who gets up every day, day after day, and struggles on to take care of her family with barely enough money to get by on - she shows the world what unselfish courage is all about. The parents who uncomplainingly give round the clock love and care to a disabled child is a prime example of unconditional courage at work every day. Courage in the face of adversity is something we all admire. I have a friend; a

woman who suddenly lost her husband and soul-mate in the prime of their lives. Her mother died the same year, followed within months by the death of her only brother, who had become her rock after the husband’s death. Pauline then immersed herself in the family business, ‘to save it for her son’. Two years after the husband’s death, the eldest son took ill on a Monday and was buried on Friday. Since then her only sister has died from cancer and Pauline herself had to overcome ‘the big C’. How can someone go on from there ... I often wonder? Yet, when you meet Pauline today she is smiling and the best company you could hope to meet – and therefore has an amazing circle of genuine friends. That is what I call courage and sometimes when someone, full of self-pity, whinges, ‘I could have done without this’, I tell them about Pauline. Like most other things in life, courage can be practiced and improved. It is never too late to develop the courage habit. Practice will lead to a more meaningful and fulfilling life. As well as enriching your own life, displaying the virtue of courage will make a contribution to your family, friends, work colleagues, community and country. Sometimes this means taking a stand and seeing it out to the bitter end - especially when it would have been easier to slink off into the darkness.

Courage makes both friends and foes

Language classes off to a Alzheimer’s Manifesto good start ■ SUZANNE O’CONNELL

suzanne@costablancapeople.com

During the week beginning the 19th September, the CIAJ building was buzzing with the new students and volunteers ready to begin their new course of conversational English classes. Crystal East is the co-ordinator of the classes which run on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 10am – 12pm and Wednesdays and Thursdays from 5pm – 6pm. There is no class on Friday, as previously published. The classes are dependent upon the English-speaking volunteers who turn up to work with Spanish people keen to improve their English. ‘We have quite a variety of student coming to our classes,’ explains Crystal. ‘Some of them are teachers and others who need it for their work. Some are taking exams and others want to work abroad and need to be able to speak English to do so.’

The volunteers are also quite a mixture of people from different backgrounds and with different interests. Everyone is keen, however, to contribute and give something back to their host country by helping its residents practise their English. ‘It’s interesting that we have quite a few men who are volunteers too,’ says Crystal. As in previous years, Crystal hopes to organise some talks for students in English on a range of subjects. The classes are not only about developing Englishspeaking skills but also learning about culture. ‘We have conversations about the differences in expectation,’ explains Crystal. ‘For example, Spanish people do not say please and thank you all the time. In the UK that is expected.’ Many people are not aware that the CIAJ building exists. Just

one door up from Burger King, it is likely that most have passed it by on a number of occasions. Few are aware of the good work that goes on inside in this comfortable building intended to provide a learning base for local young people. ‘The staff there are brilliant,’ adds Crystal. ‘Nothing is too much trouble for them.’ This is the fifth year that the language classes have run. Some of Crystal’s students have been coming throughout this time and now they almost feel like family. It is an established resource that even attracts people from outside the local area. New volunteers are always appreciated and if you think you might be interested you can contact Crystal by email at crystaleast16@yahoo.co.uk Alternatively you can drop in to the CIAJ building on Paseo Juan Aparicio. Suzanne O’Connell

On Thursday 21st September it was World Alzheimer’s Day. The day was celebrated at Torrevieja’s Alzheimer centre and councillors Carmen Morate and África Celdrán attended. To mark the day FEVAFA (Federació Valenciana D’Associacions de Familiars de Persones AMB Alzheimer) launched their manifesto promoting the needs of the carer.Green balloons were released to mark its launch. The Valencian manifesto promotes the importance of the carer’s needs too and points out that 94% of those with Alzheimer are taken care of by the family. The needs of the carer must be looked after alongside that of the patient. FEVAFA consists of 36 Associations representing the relatives of people with Alzheimer. They urge public bodies to create an official policy that focuses on both the patient and the carer. The Manifesto I)Proposals for the family circle 1. Recognise the importance of the family carer Recognise the valuable role that the carer has and the importance of it to society

• Protect their right to work and work-life balance • Apply specific tax measures and social support Include the family in the care plan • Intervention programmes • Guardianship, incapacitation and licences to enable the carer to support them Prevent the poverty that’s associated with looking after a person with Alzheimer and avoid social exclusion. 2. Provision of the resources needed whilst being a carer Recognise and identify carers and those who have been carers and identify what they need including on a social, personal and physical level. 3. Support the carer when caring has finished • Prevention of depression and attention to emotional needs • Help the reintegration of the carer socially • Encourage their return to active working life II) Proposals for services 1. The family as a primary carer • Involve the family in all the decision relating to the patient • Home care for those suffering from Alzheimer in its advanced stages; social and emotional help to both the patient and the family 2. The person with Alzheimer • Consult with associations • After diagnosis recognise that

there will be a 33% disability irrespective of the assessment 3. Associations as providers of care • Support associations in their work with families and patients • Recognise the work of associations in identifying needs •Acknowledge different therapies provided by associations. III) Proposals for recognising care 1. Proposals for information • Increase the visibility of carers and the disease in the media • Avoid dramatizing the treatment of the problem • Include the carer in press releases 2. Proposals for raising awareness • Awareness campaigns centred around the carer as well as the patient • Increase the social side to associations 3. Proposals for education • Develop intergenerational programmes in schools aimed at children and young people • Include modules in the training of professionals e.g. social workers, nurses, doctors • Improve the capacity of those working in specialist centres Alzheimer is a world-wide problem that has great implications for the families of those suffering. This manifesto is hoped to improve the lives of those both giving and needing the care.

TV PICK

Walking Through Time (Documentary) Palaeontologist Dr Tori Herridge explores exciting subjects from Britain's history. In 1986, the remains of five mammoths were found in a quarry in Shropshire; after decades of analysis, it has been revealed that these mammoths were among the last of their species to survive in Europe. Accompanied by her old PhD supervisor and the man who first identified the mammoths, Professor Adrian Lister of the Natural History Museum, Tori walks the hills of Shropshire to find out how these mammoths died, and also what their deaths can tell us about the big question: what killed off the mammoths?

Antiques Roadshow (Special Interest) Arley Hall.

A return visit to the gardens of Arley Hall in Cheshire finds Fiona Bruce and the team of experts hard at work. It's a rich day of finds as family treasures come under scrutiny. Amongst the objects featured are a portrait of a visitor's mother which was painted in India in the 1950s and identified by Asian art specialist Amin Jaffer as a superb example of a now highly collected artist whose work commands high prices today. There's a poignant diary hidden from Japanese guards by a prisoner of war whilst building the bridge over the River Kwai. And diamonds and emeralds once worn by a duchess deliver a final flourish as expert John Benjamin gets excited by their quality and sparkle.

Spanish woman expecting third child at 62 A woman from Galicia is eight months’ pregnant with her third child at the age of 62 following successful IVF treatment, and says she is ‘bursting with happiness’ at becoming a mum again. Qualified doctor Lina Álvarez, from Lugo, is no stranger to later-life

pregnancy – her second child, Samuel, 10, was conceived via IVF and born when she was 52 – says she feels better in mind and body and physical and mental health now she is expecting again than before she conceived her little girl, who will be born in October.

The ‘excitement, hormone changes and happiness at becoming a mother again’ means she is in the peak of health, although the baby will be borne by programmed Caesarean section due to her own age. This means she will have had two biological children after going through the menopause at age 42. Lina considers her third pregnancy as 'compensation' for the tough times she has suffered in her adult life, including living in poverty due to her salary being embargoed through legal battles, and her first child, who is now 27, suffering cerebral palsy and needing constant care. She has not had a partner in decades, because 'in this type of situation, it's very difficult to find one', so she had to go down the IVF route and was ‘lucky’ enough to become pregnant at 51, she says. And the experience was so enjoyable she decided to give it another go 10 years later. “I wanted to repeat the experience, but because of my age, gynaecologists did not consider it wise,” Lina explains. “So I went on the internet and eventually found a specialist in Madrid, who, before agreeing to the treatment, wanted to carry out exhaustive tests to see whether a pregnancy would be viable and I was in good enough health to go through with it. “The tests were all positive, so they decided to 'implant an embryo and see whether we would be in luck'. And in the end, I was indeed in luck.” She says this ‘luck’ will be named Lina when she comes into the world next month – after herself and her own mother. “My mother died very young as a result of medical negligence, and I promised her back then that if ever I had a baby girl, I would name her after her. “And my new baby is a miracle my mother, who is now in heaven, has given me,” she concludes.

Bill via email asks: I have recently bought an Asus Chromebook laptop for €170 which is absolutely fantastic but I can’t seem to find a download for a free antivirus program. Aunty says: Hi Bill. The Chromebooks are great machines and they don’t need an antivirus program as there is no possible way it can get infected or hacked. The

computer by USB cable, how can I change the connection so that it is networked and my iPad can use it? Aunty Says: Hello Ray. I get asked a lot about WiFi printing and mostly it is still be a bit hit-ormiss but there are a few easyish things you can try. Most modern routers, laptops, phones and printers have a feature called WPS (WiFi Protected Setup) which will let your devices connect to your WiFi router with a simple click of a button + without having to go through the normal password method. Once you have pressed the WPS button on your WiFi router you will have 2 minutes to press the WiFi button on your Epson printer (same for

iPads and phones etc but via a WPS setting rather that a button) Look for a button on your router labeled WPS and press this for 3 seconds to activate the WPS, you then need to and press the WiFi button on your printer (also for 3 seconds) which should get them talking to each other. The exact procedure will vary between different routers and printers but the principle is the same. The other option is to download and install the full software/driver from the Epson website that will let you do all the WiFi setup over the USB connection from your computer. It can get a bit Krypton Factor so good luck Ray and let me know how you get on. Lucy via email asks: Dear Aunty. I read your page each week with great interest and today I have an enquiry of my own. It is regarding not being able to easily open emails with Outlook Mail (which was all fine until I changed to Windows 10) and now I have to literally fight the laptop to open a new item in my Inbox. Could you please explain how to receive email using the web as described by your article? Maybe this would solve my problem! Please in easy idiot-proof language as, I am a senior citizen so am not au fait with too much techno talk. Thanking you in anticipation of a reply. Aunty Says: Webmail is simply a term used where you can access your email via a website rather than an app that you have installed on your computer. All email providers have a webmail option and the trend seems to be shifting away from email apps as they can often be troublesome and open up additional security issues. I see you are using Hotmail so you can simply go to www.hotmail.co.uk where you can login and use your emails without having the kind of problems you are currently experiencing.

Chromebook doesn’t use Windows but instead it uses Google’s own system which is lightning fast and bulletproof. You will still need to exercise the usual caution when surfing the web but there’s no way anything can compromise your machine. Maybe Microsoft and Apple’s days of dominance are coming to an end. Ray via email asks: Hi Aunty. My default printer is an Epson SX235W and it is connected to the

Any questions, you can email me at: auntyvirus@costablancapeople.com and hopefully see you all next week.

Amazon rewards Spanish customers’ loyalty Three loyal Spain-based customers were inducted in the Amazon customer hall of fame recently, during an event at the company’s logistics center on the outskirts of Madrid. The celebration marked five years of the company in Spain and saw the long-term customers walk the length of an orange carpet in the presence of the director general of Amazon.es, François Nuyts, and Fred Pattje, who is the general director of operations for the firm. They were then presented with a €500 voucher before being given a round of applause and showered with orange confetti. Pattje used the festivities to highlight the rapid growth of the company in Spain: from 2.3 million products available on the opening day of trading on 14th September 2014 to the 157 million products currently up for grabs, and from a mere 40 employees to the current crop of 1,372 staff. That growth can be measured in purely physical terms too. Floor space at the warehouse in San Fernando de Henares has

increased from 28,000 square meters to 77,000 square meters. In terms of the recipe for that success, Pattje put it down to the “magic behind the click”. Amazon.es general director Nuyts praised his “fantastic team,” one that has allowed for the successful roll-out of the

company’s Prime Now express delivery service, which Amazon launched this summer in Madrid and which promises delivery on some items within the hour. While the company is tight-lipped on precise details, it says take-up of the service has been fantastic, with the Spanish capital now using the service more than any other European city. Nuyts also boasted of Amazon’s “highly competitive prices, and unbeatable delivery times,” but did note that “clients have to adapt to Amazon” and not the other way around. Rapid expansion is also expected in the next five years, with the firm planning to open a

new logistics center near Barcelona’s El Prat airport toward the end of 2017: a 60,000-square meter facility that should generate some 1,500 jobs over three years. One of the loyal customers rewarded, Alejandro Iino, still has a record of his first Amazon purchase on his phone: a Kindle that he purchased five years ago. Since that date he has hit the ‘proceed to checkout’ button around 1,000 times. “A lot of the time I’m buying things for friends or family,” Iino explains. Initially his basket was mainly stuffed with video games but now that he is a father, diapers also make it onto the virtual shopping list. Mostly though, it’s technology products. There is still room for improvement at Amazon though. One of the new hall-of-famers told Nuyts not everything was about speed of delivery. He suggested the company needed more pick-up points, while product descriptions needed to be better so that customers could make a more informed choice without having to go to the products homepage.

JAGUARS – Rivers, Lakes & Waterfalls BBQ Sunday 18th September 2016, 28 beautiful Jaguars arrived at the Parador Hotel in Albacete. I must say they did look impressive all lined up outside the hotel. This collection included three cars that need special mention. Len and Barbara Pillings new Jaguar F Pace, the first one I have seen in the “flesh”, take my word, very nice indeed. The second and Joel Darget’s replica D Type, something you do not see very often and Joel had brought it all the way from the Costa Del Sol. The third was David Sleap’s superb XKR Silverstone. A total of 58 people checked in, this included 7 people who had come all the way from the Costa Del Sol. At around 19:00 Hrs we gathered for pre dinner drinks in the bar then outside for the BBQ and Dancing in the fabulous hotel grounds that evening. Monday 19th September we gathered in front of the hotel for the Group Pictures then “Engines Start” at 09:45 Hrs. In a perfect convoy the Big Cats skirted Albacete and headed out on the N430 towards Ruidera a total distance of some 120 Km. However “Our Ian” had arranged a little surprise on the way. We turned off the N430 and headed towards Munera, after a short distance we are picked up by the Police escort who helps get all the

cars safely into Munera’s town square as guests of the Mayor. A big thank you to Leondro Lopez Valido for suggesting the idea and organising the whole thing. Maybe you saw us on La Mancha television later that day. We stopped for about a hour then with the help of the Police Escort again we made our way back to the main road and continued our convoy to Ruidera. Lagunas de Ruidera is part of hidden spain, a place very popular with those that know it exists but hardly ever visited by anyone else. The attraction is the string of beautiful lakes and waterfalls, one of the most important wetlands in Spain. Apart from the stunning scenery you can also take part in various water activities. On arrival in Ruidera people were allowed to discover this beautiful part of Spain at their leisure then return to the Hotel in their own time. On Monday night we had a special menu arranged for the club, and we celebrated two birthdays, Bob Limehouse had reached the “dizzy” age of 70 and Colin Stickland made it to 65. For many the night was finished with a coffee and a little night cap. Tuesday morning we departed mid morning after a hearty breakfast. The next meeting is planned for 30th October, location to be

announced shortly. This will be followed with our Christmas Bash then a couple more local meetings before The Big One 2017 which will be held at Parador de Leon in Northern Spain in April 2017. Built in the 16th Century this fabulous building was originally the head quarters for the Military Order of Saint James. It is now Paradors flag ship 5 star hotel. This event is proving to be very popular already, currently we are expecting over 300 people and 150 beautiful Jaguars. If you own a Jaguar why not come and join us, this really is going to be something special. The JEC in Spain is organised by Eric Arnold, Club President and Ian McMenemy, Events Director. Costa Del Sol region is organised by Philip Wray. Eric can be contacted by email at jaguarspain@outlook.com or by phone on 609931647 or alternatively check out www.jecspain.com or the JEC main web site www.jec.org.uk. by Eric Arnold

Broken Brit tanker towed to Cartagena A broken down British tanker with nearly 5,000 tons of ethanol on board has been towed into the port of Cartagena. The ship alerted authorities to problem with its main engine when it was 13 nautical miles off the coast of Calblanque, and was towed to the port by Maritime Rescue. The Maritime Rescue ship ‘Clara Campoamor’ towed in the vessel in the early hours of the morning. The British registered oil tanker, The Orakai, had 12 people on board, and started seeing main engine problems the previous day. The tanker was heading to Fos Sur Mer in French Provence. The recovery, complicated by bad weather, took nearly 24 hours. The Rescue Coordination Centre in Cartagena established the tanker was in trouble, after the crew had tried their own repairs, but because the vessel was drifting, the Rescue Captaincy insisted they should ask for help. Meanwhile, from the Maritime Rescue Control Tower the movements of the tanker were tracked and as a consequence the launching of the Clara Campoamor was decided the best option. The ship manoeuvred close to the stricken tanker and started towing procedures. The operation was delayed until the early hours because of the adverse metrological conditions which saw 30knots of wind speed and three metre high waves. At 6.45am the Clara Campoamor arrived in port with the Orakai.

Panto season Panto season is nearly upon us and this year local audiences are in for a treat as Allo, Allo tries Panto. Yes, ‘listen very carefully, I will say this only once’… Renes's cafe in Nouvion is the imaginary setting for the forthcoming production from ‘The Deadwood Stage Company.’ The characters from the well loved comedy series are trying their hands at performing an English pantomime, about which they know nothing. Rene has been instructed in this new version of “Allo, Allo” to provide some entertainment for the Germans occupying his village, so he tries to direct his staff and customers in a version of “Cinderella” Mayhem ensues with Edith,Yvette and Mimi heading the cast in rehearsals. The Resistance worker Michelle contributes with Crabtree the Policeman and Mama disrupts the situation even further carrying her chamber pot. Other well known characters are also seen to be helping or hindering Renes attempts to stage his performance. So put a date in your diary for the end

of January 2017 so you can be amused by their efforts. Further details will follow in Costa Blanca People or can be given by telephoning the Director, Vida Nelson, on 966 77 4127. If anyone is interested in joining the theatre group they would be most welcome in any capacity from scenery and costumes to lighting and performing. Weekly rehearsals are now being held every Wednesday morning from 11.00am till 1.00pm at Georgious Restaurant in Blue Lagoon.

e kick the week off with the welcome return of the little lady with the big voice, Maria O’Hara. Maria will be at La Bodegueta in Lo Crispin on Tuesday singing everything from pop to opera. Maria who is from Ireland has an amazing voice and frequently brings people to tears with her rendition of Nessun Dorma. Not only is she vocally talented, but she is also slim and pretty – I hate her! haha Wednesday if you are in the La Finca Golf area and fancy a curry then you will be in for a treat as Spice City are spicing up mid week with new to the circuit Suzanna B to serenade diners. Lively lady Suzanna stepped in to cover for regular Saturday night crooner Nigel Paul and was such a success that the restaurant have snapped her up for their new mid week entertainment slot. It’s a big night on Friday for acts and bars up and down the Costa. In Almoradi Elvis is in the house at Victoria’s Tea Room where they will be holding their Chops, Rock n Roll night. The tea room is one of the few in the area to hold entertainment evenings and are getting their blue suede shoes dusted off in anticipation of a full evening of food and dancing. Over in Catral, British style bar The Fat Owl will be partying with style with Dee leading the dancers for a night of fun and great music. If you can make it to Santa Pola del Este you can see the 4 piece Beatles Tribute band The StarBeats. The lads who are mainly based round La Marina are becoming so popular that their 2017 diary is already getting filled with dates up and down the coast. I had the privilege of giving them their first booking and have seen them go from strength to strength. If you haven’t heard about it on Sunday there is a charity fundraiser at The Family Sports Bar in Playa Flamenca. The 8 acts including Stevie Spit and Rebecca Holt will be raising money for the homeless teenagers at Centrepoint. Rebecca’s mother Angela will also be braving Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa from 4th October and will be raising money with this sponsored walk. Angela not only looks after her very talented vocalist daughter but also trains dogs. If you want to sponsor this tremendously challenging walk (I find it hard enough walking up some of the hills round here) then catch her on Sunday and have yourself a great afternoon.

QUESADA GOLF SUPER LEAGUE 4th SUMMER COMPETITION FONT DEL LLOP

After it was announced that Messi was to be sidelined for three weeks, and with the threat of bankruptcy proceedings hanging over their other star, Neymar, it was interesting to see how Barcelona faced up to their visit to Sporting de Gijón. In fact, they had no problem at all, and hammered the Asturians 0-5, Neymar helping himself to a pair. Talk of league positions at this early stage is no more than entertaining, but Real Madrid didn’t want to let their lead slip away, after drawing at home to Villareal in midweek, as rivals Barça had a similar result at home to Atletico Madrid. Their visit to Las Palmas was never going to be an easy one, and with Casemiro out of action for some time, and Marcelo also injured, they had to struggle to go ahead twice against the islanders, only to lose the lead each time, as out-of-sorts Cristiano Ronaldo, and somewhat unlucky Bale failed to make the most of their many chances. Antoine Griezmann’s 70th minute goal was enough to see Atletico home against Deportivo, and also to take him level with Luis Suarez as the League’s top scorer. Atletico, then, like Real Madrid, are unbeaten so far, as are Villareal, who beat poor Osasuna 3-1. The result of all this is that Real Madrid are a point ahead of Barça, who lead Atletico, Villareal and Athletic Bilbao by a further point, as the Basque club continue their quiet progress, beating Sevilla 3-1. It is all very tight at the top. At the other end, Osasuna and Granada are looking in need of points, but

Valencia, under caretaker boss Voro, have won their last two, and recovered somewhat. In the second division, some topsyturvy results leave Levante still just ahead of the pack, with Córdoba occupying second place, then a rather odd triplet of Lugo, Reus and Mirandés a point behind. Locals Elche, unable to strike a consistent level, are still not too far from the leading pack. Division 2B sees Racing de Santander leading group 1, and Leioa just ahead of a mass of clubs in group 2. Group 3 is led by Barcelona B, with local side Alcoyano unbeaten and occupying fourth place, whilst Hercules had a 5-1 win over Eldense to bring them within range. The only team in the whole Spanish senior league with 100% record remains Marbella, who needed a late penalty to win at bottom club La Roda for their sixth straight win in group 4. In England, Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City side is also sporting a 100% tally, though their win at Swansea was not without some Welsh protests at certain refereeing decisions. Neighbours United slotted four past champions Leicester with Pogba starring, but Liverpool are raising eyebrows, beating Hull City 5-1 with another good display of attacking football. West Ham United don’t seem to like their new home in the Olympic Stadium, and continued their poor form, losing at home to Southampton. One supposes that Mr Bilic will quite soon be crying all the way to the bank? Malcolm Palmer

For the day’s organisers it was a very early start arriving at the course just as the sun was coming through the dark. With so much to do before players came in to pay with the staff at Font del Llop eager to help out to make the day once again a special event we sorted out all the nearest the pins, longest drives and the cards to go with it. This year we were pleased to welcome players from 10 different societies. This extended to 52 players starting on the 1st and 10th tees. By this time the sun was fully out and making its presence felt. We were now all set for an excellent day. The course was in its usual well maintained condition and it was obvious to the organisers who were in amongst the rest of the players that we were looking at some excellent scores and as the cards started to come in this was realised. Having checked all the cards through once again the trophy for the best pair on the day was going to go to San Miguel Golf Society with Theo Boelhouer and Hugh Riley scoring a very creditable 49 points. Our thanks as always on these occasions go to the Font del Llop staff and especially to Barbara for her help in making this a

most successful day. After the prize giving, results as below, a vote of thanks was given to the organisers from Ruby’s Golf Society on behalf of the players. A new League starts on the 3rd October at Font del Llop and we look forward to seeing all the teams. Our thanks to Chris at Mono’s Bar for his sponsorship. The other prizes were donated by the League Officers.

Línea Directa sponsor Valencian Championships Following on from the success they enjoyed at the National Championships in May, Línea Directa´ are continuing with their support of Lawn Bowls by sponsoring the 2016 Valencian Championship, which got underway with the opening ceremony at San Miguel Bowls Club on Saturday. Held over two weeks at three different venues, San Miguel, La Siesta and San Luis Bowls Clubs, the tournament was opened on Saturday evening in a blaze of colour as almost 300 bowlers from across the Costa Blanca took to the San Miguel rink behind their individual club banners. The undoubted sporting and social

highlight of the Valencian bowling calendar was once again blessed with bright sunshine as the competitors streamed out onto the magnificent green, as ever resplendent in their club colours. Vic Slater, the owner of Casa Ventura, handed over the 3 greens to the Championship Committee after which we had the usual round of welcoming speeches, followed by the Spanish National Anthem. In welcoming the guests, players and dignitaries, the National Director and Valencian Delegate, Bob Donnelly, said that he was delighted to see such a large turnout as he then went on to thank Línea Directa´ for their generous contribution to the sport. He also thanked the owners

of the three contributing clubs for the use of their venues before wishing the players the best of competition during the twoweek tournament as well as the tournament umpires and markers who were all contributing their time absolutely free. Neil Reardon, representing Línea Directa´, said that company have always strived to commit the very best attention to their English speaking clients who are a key part of the business and its success. He said that the Director, Francisco Valencia, asked that he could wish the best of luck to all participants in the tournament and thank them for their continued confidence in Línea Directa´. The competition itself got underway on Sunday at all three venues with the men’s and ladies singles competition. In the men’s section the defending champion is Drew Gerrard who has since moved from San Miguel to the Emerald Isle Bowls Club, Drew got his tournament underway with a preliminary round match against Quesada veteran Harry Rhodes. In the ladies competition 2015 winner Sue Kemp of Monte Mar gets her tournament underway on Monday in a first round meeting with Jenny Bowman of Vistabella. The complete bowling schedule is available at http://levantelawnbowls.wixsite.com/llbspain. Competition gets underway at 10am daily and continues throughout the day. Admission is completely free and spectators are extremely welcome to attend. The strong play and deep rooted camaraderie exhibited by all players indicates that once again the 2016 Línea Directa Valencian Lawn Bowls Championships will be another excellent competition.

San Miguel Golf Society at Alenda Forty-six players, including 5 guests, made it to Alenda to take part in a twoball, better-ball competition. A rare break away from the stableford and medal formats normally held, most seemed to really enjoy the team game. Rounds were played on a course in a reasonable state, apart from some heavily overwatered areas, and perfect climatic conditions for good scoring. Some fine better ball returns were posted, with Ken Flaherty and Ian Howie taking the honours with an excellent 47 points. The pair were well ahead of the three teams posting 44, and on another planet to those bringing up the rear with some 21 points less, but who, nonetheless, got a good bottle of plonk each for their troubles. The day’s results were the following: 1st Ken Flaherty and Ian Howie 47 points 2nd Chris Hamblett and Ray Ewins

44 points (on countback) 3rd Alan MacDonald and Roger Webb 44 points (on cb) 4th Norman Padmore and Keith Wraithmell 44 points (on cb) 5th Andy Imrie and Peter Girenas 43 points The Abacus was won by Nick Spicer and Brian Mulligan. Nearest the pins on the par 3’s went to John Casey (Hole 3), Jacqui Rust (5), Roger Webb (13) and Marg Birtwistle (16). Our thanks go to the staff at Alenda golf course for their contribution to an enjoyable day. Next week, Sept 28th, SMGS will be at La Finca for Captain’s Day. Keep up to date with all SMGS matters by logging on to our website www.smgs.org or simply give Barry Roehrig a call on 966 731 033 to find out more about the society and its weekly golf get-togethers.

Tales from the Top Flight ■ CHRIS DARWEN chris@costablancapeople.com

Well, well, well. In just 45 minutes every role Wayne Rooney has played in the last year or so was filled far better by someone else, including that of “corner taker.” Who would have thought that by listening to the “footballing Einsteins” that Jose would kick start United’s season so emphatically. Relieved of two large rocks in the middle of the park,

Pogba, Herrera and Mata were free to pick Leicester apart. Leicester are suffering like Stoke, since referees have clamped down on grappling at corners. Credit to United though, everything about their performance was everything people have been crying out for. And it means that I have to turn my attention elsewhere. What about Kloppo, can I pick on him? Not a bit of it as Liverpool swept Hull to one side 5-1. Mike Phelan must have seen it coming as he dressed appropriately. That suit will next get aired at a funeral. Sahko handed in a transfer request in a very modern way, airing his grievance with King Klopp via Snapchat of all things. If he was slightly ahead of Yaya Toure in the “likely to get a game in the League Cup soon” stakes, he has certainly slipped. It’s only fair to mention Spurs at some point this season. Whilst Poch has been getting us all focusing on his perfect “new contract signed with Player X” stare, Tottenham have sneaked into second place. Who needs Kane when Poch has a new Son in the family? The back-up front man scored twice as Spurs got all three points at Middlesbrough. Having tipped Everton, on live TV, to finish in the top six this season it was completely nailed on that

Bournemouth would win their match this weekend. Eddie Howe needed a league win desperately and the Cherries delivered. Sunderland, oh Sunderland. It’s not easy to lose to Palace when you are beating them 2-0 with a mere 30 minutes remaining. Yet Moysey’s men grabbed defeat from the gaping jaws of a much needed victory, succumbing 32 in injury time. The winner, well that went in off Benteke’s head obviously. Pards looks smug at the best of times, but his smug-o-meter rating has hit a

new high of 7.9 as Palace have taken the most league points in September (or something like that, that statement may not be 100% factually accurate). One thing that is certainly factually bang on is the fact that Stoke playing WBA was unlikely to be interesting apart from the fact that a WBA win could have seen Hughes lose another job. Stoke led, yet WBA scored from a corner. I know, shock right? Ever since Shawcross

when it is that obvious you are going to win it, there is little point thinking about it. Swansea put up a brave fight, possibly as they don’t want their fate to be in Ryan Giggs’s hands, but City were just too good. Aguero netted another brace and Raheem Sterling capped another fine performance with a goal. If Pep is this good at working with young English talents, would City be so kind as to sign a few more? It will be, however, interesting to see how he replaces Kevin de Bruyne in the short term as the Belgian’s hamstring injury will rule him out for a month. Each game John Terry misses increases his chances of getting a three year extension to his contract tenfold. Chelsea bottomed out several times under Mourinho last season, but the 30 defeat to Arsenal was a new low. Admittedly, Arsenal play like this once in a while and look like they could never lose again, but nobody could deny that Gary Cahill was in line for their man of the match award. Even from the moon you could see he was terrible. The patient souls that are Chelsea fans post-2003 have been calling for Conte to be sacked following the defeat. Just because the United fans seemed to be able to spot the obvious doesn’t mean Roman should start courting their opinions. Finally, West Ham. Charlie Austin was very much rubbing his knee in David Gold’s nose by giving Southampton a first half lead. The striker that the Hammers did not want, intimating his knee meant he was finished, then turned provider setting up Tadic. James Ward-Prowse rounded things off

hasn’t been able to hold, pinch and punch his way through defending set pieces Stoke have started shipping a few. Pep claims he hasn’t been thinking about the Premier League title. I guess

nicely for a Southampton team coming to grips with Claude Puel’s style of play. Bilic will have headed home to name his new daughter in the worst of moods, so be sure to find something like Martha on her certificate.

Imanyo Golf Society Wyn Evans Memorial Salver at Font Del Llop This was the society’s highest turn out for our second competition of the new season. All players arrived early at Imanyo’s where the day started with the traditional full English breakfast, the format was full handicap Stableford pairs. On arriving at the course we received a friendly greeting from the staff, the course was in good condition, the greens still had the summer fluff in the grass which slowed the ball down a bit and some of the bunkers needed attention, but the fairways were in good condition. Winners of the Wyn Evans Salver was Judy Evans (Sponsor) and Carol Murphy with an excellent 66 points, runners up were Mick Billins and Dave Sanders with 64 points, the nearest the pins won were, hole 3 Judy Evans, hole 8 Ian Bell, hole 16 Mo Chaplin and hole 17 Judy Evans, there was no winner on hole 12. The presentation was held at

Imanyo’s bar, many thanks to Judy Evans for sponsoring the day and presenting the prizes. Thank you to Antonio, Norma and all the staff for looking after us, also thanks to Harry Goldsmith and Jack Day, our in house photographers. The two football cards

were won by Ronnie King with Reading and Cardiff City who donated half back making €60 for our sponsored charity, Caritas Daya Nueva. www.imanyogolfsociety.com imanyogolfsociety@gmail.com

RODS & REELS

The Memorial Trophy Cup along with the 3rd round of the Winter Series was fished on the river Segura at Murcia on the 20th September. The water looked coloured, and as if it had been up, possibly due to heavy rain up river, and probably this could be the cause for the lack of bites on the day. Richard Wood fishing the method feeder took top weight to win the match along with this years Memorial Trophy. I was the only one fishing not to have a bite all day!

We fished this week’s Open Match on the Embalsa de Pedrera on the 21st September. The Lake is receding very fast and the level is almost back to the old days, the fishing is improving now with the extra bait going in regularly, it is stuffed full of Bleak with the biggest ones going up to 7 inches. This will make it possible for good double weight figures for the Bleak boys, but unfortunately not today as they did not respond with the catch rate too slow. Richard Wood finding good form again today, making it a double win week and just piping Bill Reade by 16grams today 1st Richard Wood with 14.860kgs fishing the method feeder using pellet 2nd Bill Reade with 14.700kgs fishing the feeder using pellet 3rd Lennie Bolton with 10.820kgs fishing the feeder using pellet There are still some vacancies at the Club and if anyone is interested in joining please contact Derek Swann on 9966729293 or 617283503 Terry Screen

Your Week in Sport ■ CHRIS DARWEN chris@costablancapeople.com

I don’t know about you, but I feel a lot better now I know Sir Bradley Wiggins’s views on Jeremy Corbyn and Theresa May. Andrew Marr, someone who doesn’t mind the full story being out in the open, was tasked with gently probing the cycling great around the reasons he took medication that was fully within the rules. Considering the size of the debate around the subject, it was a little disappointing that Marr wrapped it up early so they could talk shopping and fashion. With former doctors questioning the validity of Sir Bradley’s reasons, this might go on a few weeks yet. In better cycling news, Olympic gold medal winners Jason Kenny and Laura Trott have tied the knot. What are the odds that any offspring either (a) beats their combined gold medal haul or (b) never gets on a bike, ever. Tyson Fury has been declared medically unfat, I mean unfit to fight Klitschko. Apparently the champion boxer is now at an all-time low, surrounded by all kinds of allegations as to the real reason the fight has been cancelled. For Fury to hit a new all-time low has to be pretty low, right? Anthony Joshua is now in line to get his first shot at the world titles, and the difference between the

two fighters could not more apparent. Staying with boxing, Manchester’s Anthony Crolla went the distance with Jorge Linares but lost to a unanimous decision and, as a result, handed over his WBA lightweight title. The Venezuelan was always in control in a classy performance. County cricket may not catch people’s eye throughout the English summer, but well over half a million were keeping a very close eye on the BBC coverage at Lords as Middlesex set Yorkshire an entirely conceivable target in 35 overs. A successful chase would see Yorkshire win their third straight title, bowling them out would see Middlesex as champions for the first time since 1993. If the two counties could not get a positive result from the match then Somerset were ready to be crowned. Step forward trundle Toby Roland-Jones. Just as the game seemed most destined for a draw, the Middlesex seamer struck with an unforgettable hat-trick to see the County Championship back at the Home of Cricket.

TORRY GAIN THEIR FIRST POINT OF THE SEASON On Sunday evening Torry entertained a team which has become one of their bogey sides Novelda. Novelda had got off to a very good start to the season with 4 wins, 1 draw and one defeat and were in 4th place going into the game. Torry on the other hand had got off to a disastrous start to the season with 5 losses and no points. In the week leading up to the game Torry had lost the services of outfield players Vazquez and Belforti and signed a new keeper from Guinea, Buba. They had also brought back last seasons manager Pedreno and as his assistant exTorry favourite Carrasco. Torry fans will hoping they prove to be a successful double act. Youngster Damian came into the side and keeper Buba made his debut. On the bench were youngsters. The game kicked off on a warm evening in front of 350 + spectators at the Nelson Mandela stadium. The Torry line up: Buba, Vicente Boix, Luis Carlos, Garcia, Pastor (Guillem `86), Llorens, Matheus, Damian (Santi `90) Hugo Salamanca, Lewis, Navas (Booker ´75). Torry started the game brightly and took the game to Novelda and got their reward after 20 minutes when a fine cross from Pablo Navas found the head of young Matheus who found the corner of the net to put Torry in front. As the half wore on Novelda started to press in search of an equaliser with the Torry defence at times looking vulnerable. Torry keeper Buba was called into action on a number of occasions in what was

promising to be an excellent debut. Torry still got forward when they could with Pablo Navas and Matheus threatening down the flanks. As half-time approached Novelda started to get the upper hand but Torry held firm and went in at the break a goal to the good. Novelda came out for the second half all guns blazing and as the half wore on the pressure on Torry intensified. The Novelda “drummers” became louder. Torry had some uneasy moments in defence but managed to keep Novelda at bay with a little luck at times and some good stops by Buba. One in particular with his feet which looped up and over his cross-bar. Torry no.9 Salamanca had a good heading chance from a Luis Carlos cross but put it straight at the keeper. What looked inevitable happened in the 80th minute. A cross into the Torry box was swept home from close range for the equaliser. Novelda went all out for ht

winner with Buba making an outstanding save with a tip over the top. Torry did have a late flurry with Matheus weaving his way past 4 or 5 players to set up a chance for one of the subs which was squandered. Vicente then flashed a fierce low drive just wide of the post. The whistle blew with honours even with Torry picking up their first point of the season. Torry probably had the better of the first half with Novelda bossing the second-half and deserving the equaliser. It was a more encouraging display by Torry. Novelda had three bookings and Torry five, Navas, Vicente, Damian, Garcia and Salamanca. Captain and experienced centre-back Pastor took a knock and it is hoped it isn´t serious as he is much needed as there is little strength in depth unless new players are brought in. Torrys next game is on Sunday 2 October at Ontinyent. Darrylldinho
