T

he Local Police in Orihuela revealed that authorities have put officers through an intense training programme aimed at detecting drug use in drivers. The aim of the course was to enable officers to evaluate the signs and symptoms displayed by drivers. Officers covering the city, coast and parishes can now carry out the relevant tests and controls which provide an effective system to detect drugs in drivers who show signs of consumption of illegal substances.

The Councillor of Citizen Security, Mariola Rocamora, stressed the importance of the training course “for the updating of knowledge to ensure a better service to citizens”.

The course was taught at the premises of the Local Police, in Orihuela, and was taken by the officer responsible for training and controls from the Local Police in Elche, José Sánchez; the Deputy Attorney for Road Safety in the province of

The training “consisted of theory and practice in order to comply with the legal

Within the practical training, preventive checks were carried out by the officers, both in Orihuela Costa and in Orihuela City. As a result of these controls, in addition to reporting various administrative offenses, a total of 17 positive tests were reported on drug use, a fact that is even more worrying because the controls were performed on weekdays and not just on weekends.

In addition to the preventive nature of the checks carried out, the training officers also made two important arrests. Firstly, that of an individual from Kosovo with an international search and arrest warrant, and secondly a man of Albanian origin with a ban on entry into Schengen territory, as decreed in Italy.

Job surge at Amazon Spain On-line sell-everything shop Amazon plans to take on 500 new staff in Spain this year on permanent, secure contracts, bringing its total payroll up to 1,500. The company – which started out life as a book, CD and video store in the very early days of internet retailing, and has since expanded into clothing, food, cosmetics and all types of electronics – intends to increase its staff count in Europe as a whole to more than 15,000 this year, which will include expanding its team in Spain by 50 percent on its existing 1,000 workers.

A varied array of jobs are on offer, suitable for a wide cross-section of applicants, including software engineers and developers with solid experience through to those just starting out in the world of work who hope to train and build up a new career as they go along.

The positions would be at the Amazon group's central offices, including its technology and logistics bases in Madrid, and the headquarters in El Prat de Llobregat, in Barcelona province, currently under construction.

Just five years after the Spanish version of the company, Amazon.es, was launched, the firm has expanded rapidly and continues to do so, says national director François Nuyts. “We've managed to find extremely talented professionals in Spain, and will carry on employing and investing at an accelerated pace to allow us to keep on innovating in the name of our clients,” Nuyts says. Operations manager for Spain and Italy at Amazon, Frend Pattje, says the recruitment process has already started, and hints that the salaries on offer are 'very competitive' and include 'other perks', such as private medical insurance.

Pattje reveals that the numerous small and medium-sized businesses in Spain which sell their wares via Amazon Marketplace have led to over 2,100 jobs being created.

BITE SIZE New rules for the use NEWS: of public buildings The final event in Carnival Torrevieja took place on Saturday 25th February and it lived up to expectations. It is estimated that around 1,500 people took part along with 31 comparsas or dance groups from the town.

The parade was perhaps a little more relaxed than that of last Sunday partly due to the fact that there were no more prizes to be awarded and the judging had taken place. Those taking part were virtually the same except for seven groups from other countries who had been invited previously.

Following on from the procession the celebrations continued into local night clubs in the town. Now, those taking part this year, will already be thinking about how they will dress in 2018.

A night of country music St. Peter and St. Paul’s chaplaincy are presenting ‘A Night of Country Music’ at Los Rosales restaurant on the Lemon Tree Road. The evening is on Wednesday 15th March and doors open at 7pm for a 7.30pm start. The tickets are €13 and this includes a three-course meal. If you would like a ticket you should contact Pauline Woodend or Allan White on 966728016 or 605584600.

Torrevieja at the Oscars

The local council in Torrevieja has now stipulated that they will only allow organisations to charge entry fees for their events if there is an agreement or contract in place. This applies to music groups, orchestras and theatre groups. Otherwise the event must be free to attend.

The concern is that previously organisations were using public buildings for no charge or with just a donation being given. They have then been charging entrance fees which they retain for themselves. The current council suggest that this makes auditing the use of public buildings difficult and unreliable.

An example of this is that of the Symphonic Orchestra. They have scheduled around seven annual concerts in the International Auditorium which the council has allowed them to use. The orchestra has gained an average of €15,000 for each concert. They also are able to collect money for refreshments.

However, there is a cost to making

these venues available that the town council must pay and the orchestra also receives support in the form of €30,000 a year from Agamed. Now there will be two options. If event organisers want to charge entry then they must also pay the town hall for use of the building.

Alternatively they can present the event with the town council as the organiser and not charge for entry or only charge a limited ‘token’ amount.

There are concerns, however, that this new arrangement will mean that organisations will not want to use the venues in future. Councillor Domingo Pérez is keen to emphasis that the town hall does want to support arts and culture in the town but that there must be some form of regulation as to how premises are used and paid for. ‘Of course, the Orchestra will always receive our support,’ says the councillor.

March to save Cala Mosca The developer, planning to build 1,500 new houses and apartments on Cala Mosca - the last kilometre of open, green land on Orihuela Costa - is desperate to get final approval from the Valencia government.

Thanks to the intervention of local political party C.L.A.R.O. and the support of the European Parliament, several years ago, he was obliged to delay building in order to carry out an environmental impact study. A revised project was then submitted for public consultation in 2014 which claimed to safeguard two

endangered species, a plant and a rare snail, protected under regional and European environmental law.

However, this proposal met with widespread objection and a further revised project was presented at the end of last year but was widely objected to again. This was mainly because it contained no significant changes, continued to provide for 1,500 new houses and did not satisfactorily protect the two endangered species.

However, the developer considers he has now done enough to satisfy the requirements of environmental law and is counting on the regional government of Valencia to ignore the objections of Orihuela Costa residents that an additional 1,500 new dwellings, which

could increase the present population of 30,000 by a further 6,000, or 20 percent, would put an intolerable strain on the already notoriously deficient services and civic facilities suffered by existing Orihuela Costa residents.

Objectors feel that it is significant that the present Popular Party-Citizens municipal government of Orihuela has raised no objections to the latest plan.

C.L.A.R.O.'s Bob Houliston and Marta Guillen of Cambiemos, the Orihuela political party most supportive of the cause of saving Cala Mosca, will therefore appeal to the Petitions Committee of the European Parliament which meets in Brussels next week to intervene again and ensure, by all legal means possible, that this last remaining piece of green land with endangered species is not sacrificed to another mega building project which will enrich a developer but impoverish the services necessary for a decent quality of life for those already living on Orihuela Costa.

Bob Houlistion said: “We are not counting only on this external support and will provide residents and interested parties with an opportunity to express their opposition to this inconsiderate mega project. A peaceful, authorised demonstration will be held on Sunday, 5th March in a final attempt to persuade the authorities that this project should not be approved. Several associations, such as the Federation of Associations of Orihuela Costa and the Podemos political party will join supporters of C.L.A.R.O. and Cambiemos in a protest assembly and walk along the coast of Cala Mosca.”

Local residents are being invited to join the march on Sunday 5th March. The meeting point will be the Esplanade of Playa Flamenca beside the Post Office (Correos), at 11.30am .

Bob Houliston said: “We need to demonstrate the will of the people of Oriheula Costa that this emblematic green space should not be sacrificed.”

Torrevieja hospital bends the rules on dogs Torrevieja hospital is the next one to bend the rules when it comes to allowing dogs on the premises. A hospital in Elche had already allowed access to pets according to the wishes of their owners and now, Torrevieja, has followed suit.

One of the last wishes of a patient in Torrevieja was to see her dogs again. One the afternoon of the 23rd February the hospital allowed the wish to be carried out. A wish that was also recently granted

by Hospital Vinalopó in Elche, a hospital which is also managed by the group Ribera Salud.

The patient whose illness was terminal, asked to go home to see her dogs.

However, as this wasn’t possible the hospital looked instead to find an

alternative means of helping the patient achieve her wish.

Hospital workers took the patient into another part of the hospital where there is an interior patio where she could wait whilst her husband brought the two dogs.

It was a ten minute visit but the family were delighted by it.

The decision to allow access to animals was first taken only a couple of days ago when a 91 year old was allowed to see his Yorkshire terrier. The Vinalopó hospital took this decision due to the exceptional circumstances and the terminal nature of the patient’s illness. Ten minutes was all that it took for the patient to receive a very much needed boost.

BITE SIZE NEWS: Continued from page 3 directed by Juanjo Giménez was one of five nominees at the 89th Academy Awards for best live action short film.

Unfortunately it lost out in the end to ‘Sing’, a film by Hungarian Kristof Deák.

Of particular interest is that ‘Timecode’ stars a dubbing actor from Torrevieja, Vicente Gil Martínez. Vicente has been in the profession for more than four decades. As well as acting in films he has also taken part in television and theatre.

Vicente Gil’s family emigrated to Barcelona when he was little but he grew up in Torrevieja where he had his first experiences of performing. He has dubbed on around 1,500 occasions.

‘Timecode’ was up for best short film (live action) and is already showing in 65 cinemas in the USA. The film takes place in an underground car park.

The parking lot security guard, Luna, is bored with her daily routine.

Then a call about a customer complaint leads her to discover how the night guard, Diego, alleviates his boredom.

The pair develop a relationship by communicating through the garage’s CCTV footage.

Protests against the multi-lingual plans Hostility is rising towards the plans to deliver more of children’s education in valenciano in the Valencian region.

There is now to be a meeting on Wednesday 1st March in order to explain directly about the proposals by the Valencian government. There has been significant opposition from parents and teachers in Torrevieja where the additional requirement to teach more in valenciano is considered by many to be an imposition. The meeting will take place in the town hall from 6pm and will be presided over by the mayor, José Manuel Dolón.

Representatives from AMPA, parent/ teacher association of Torrevieja will be taking part to express their views along with representatives from the University of Alicante and the leaders of the Official School of Languages.

Issues to do with the study of languages in the town will also be debated with a request that Russian be included amongst the languages taught.

Budget progress made, or not?

On the 21st February it was looking as though Torrevieja could, at last, be reaching agreement on the council’s budget plans for 2017. The minority ruling government needed the support of additional councillors in order to pass the plans.

However, this had been looking doubtful with Ciudadanos, the party with the deciding votes, calling a halt to any agreement.

Since then, discussions appeared to have moved forward and the mayor of Torrevieja, José Manuel Dolón and the spokesperson for Ciudadanos, Pilar Gómez Magán, signed an agreement in which the Government has promised to include a series of proposals from the group in the Municipal budget for 2017. The ruling town council is also in agreement with the suggestions put forward by Ciudadanos.

The town is urgently in need of a budget agreement. As the mayor points out,‘a town without a budget is paralised. What we have in common is that we want our town to be able to function in the interest of its people and without a budget it cannot.’

Two areas of particular interest to

The club started on the 1st November and looks forward to raising more money for good causes in the future.

Money from Alicante to challenge domestic violence Alicante province will contribute more than €263,500 to local town halls and charitable organisations to help fight domestic violence.

Mercedes Alonso, on behalf of the department of the family in the Alicante provincial government announced: ‘we have to channel all our efforts into stopping such a devastating social problem as domestic violence. This year alone it has taken the lives of at least 15 women in Spain.’

There will be €150,000 made available to town halls to promote projects, €15,000 to mancomunidades and €98,500 to non-profit making organisations.

The money is intended to be spent on projects that will promote gender equality and programmes and activities that can help prevent the damage that domestic violence does.

Money will also be made available to provide work opportunities for vulnerable women and to help challenge stereotypes.

Meeting for volunteers There will be a meeting for volunteers helping out at Torrevieja’s animal shelter on Thursday 3rd March at 7.30pm in Casa Ventura at San Luis. The meeting is being called to establish new protocols.

If you want to attend please let the animal shelter office know or email animalistastorrevieja@hotmail.com.

Ciudadanos have been the need to improve street lighting and access to the town which they worry is ‘dying little by little.’ To meet the additional budget proposals another €800,000 was needed.

However, in another twist to the tale, the leader of Ciudadanos, Paqui Parra has

declared that Pilar Gómez has gone ahead with this move without consulting with either herself or the rest of the party.

Councillor Parra has remained silent during the period of negotiation and is now claiming that the agreement signed between the mayor and Pilar Gómez was a surprise.

There would seem to have been difficulties with the relationship between the two councillors over the past months with Parra suggesting that Gómez may be a little power crazed and complaining that there had been little communication between them in recent weeks.

The future of the agreement now seems a little unclear. There is some confusion whether Pilar did have the power to go it alone or whether the contract is no longer valid. Asked about this, the Valencian headquarters of the Ciudadanos expressed their view that they did not want to become involved in internal problems. However, it would seem as though the agreement has not been authorised by the party chiefs.

The agreement between Ciudadanos and the four party government did look promising. Whether it continues as valid or not, it is still only a draft budget that has been agreed. We now await further information on the validity of the agreement as well as subsequent technical reports which are the next hurdle to overcome.

Conservation Pride of Spain Teacher walk brings troupe to London Jonny Rankin, a British bird-watcher who loves turtle doves, is walking across Spain inorder to fight for their protection. The British ornithologist is a grand defender of the European turtle dove, and will be walking the 1,100 kilometres from the south to the north of Spain which the bird travels when migrating from the African Sub-Sahara. During his trek he will be raising funds for the protection of the endangered species.

Rankin wants the attract attention on the dwindling population of the turtle doves, which has fallen by 80 percent since the 80’s, according to SEO/Bird Life.

Codenamed ‘Dove Step 3’ he faces three challenges – resistance to complete the walk, fund raising and raising the awareness of the endangered species which is under threat of disappearance.

Mr Rankin left Tarifa on 5th February and according to his Twitter account he has been surprised by the heavy rains during the first days of his journey, but from County Durham he should be accustomed to inclement weather.

He is waiting to see how funds are going and trusts he can complete his journey, given the turtle doves are farm birds in Great Britain and migrate between Africa- crossing the Sahara desert, over Morocco and the Strait of Gibraltar, then over the western mountains of Spain and France.

He has trained over several marathons, has climbed in Snowdonia and the Cairngorms, and now will following the migratory route as close as possible via Extremadura, Salamanca, Zamora, and Astorga ending in Gijón.

Costa Blanca People Pride of Spain Awards finalist for Teacher of the Year, Paris Brumitt is taking her troupe, Essence Dance and Fitness, to their first overseas exhibition, Move It 2017 which takes place in London from March 10th to 12th.

Paris, who was nominated by her students for the 2016 Pride of Spain Awards in view of her passion, talent and dedication to teaching dance, told the Costa Blanca People, “At Move It, many colleges and schools get to participate in different types of dance classes with top choreographers and dancers from all over the country and also get to experience a freestyle stage as well as the opportunity to watch Performing Arts Colleges perform

on the main stage.”

Paris explained, “I am taking this opportunity to bring some of my students back as I performed on the main stage in my last year of college and think it's a great environment for all dancers to experience, especially those individuals that are looking forward their careers at full time dance colleges in the future. Move It is also a great confidence booster and learning curve for all the students as this is a great opportunity and experience for them all as they will all be taking part in a Unity dance company class as well as a couple of our students in a more advanced class with Flawless dance group.”

We asked Paris how the students were feeling about the impending trip: “Very excited!” she revealed, “The students can’t wait for their trip to London and working very hard to raise money for more future trips away as this is the first of many more to come!”

Essence Dance & Fitness have also been invited to take part in the charity event held at MJs in Quesada on the 4th of April in aid of the Elche Children's Home. So if you want to see firsthand what the dancers learn at Move It, or if you are looking for a dance academy for your children, this would be an ideal opportunity to watch all the students perform and see if you would like to join Essence Dance & Fitness!

And they’re off…

Torrevieja’s half marathon Altogether around 1,200 participants set off from the front of Torrevieja on the 26th February to take part in either the half marathon (21k) or the 10k run. This was the 34th half marathon that Torrevieja had hosted and it continued to be just as popular as ever. The runners set off at 10am from the Avenida de la Libertad with many local, national and international entries and some disabled entries too.

It proved to be a beautiful day with little wind and the sun shining, although for some runners this made it rather warmer than expected. There were plenty of spectators along the route and a variety of people of all ages, shapes and sizes ventured out to prove they could run the distance.

Many people took the opportunity to collect their goody baga t Habaneras shopping centre the night before. This included their entry pack with their number, tag, refreshment goodies, t-shirt and, of course, a box of Torrevieja salt.

Potential participants were able to sign up right until the start of the race. It’s quite an organisational nightmare. The marathon requires 400 volunteers to make sure it runs smoothly and volunteers took part from the town’s sports schools as well as Las Culturas’ Scouts Group. Local police as well as the Protección Civil were there in order to make sure that the runners were able to navigate the course without difficulties. The town centre route means that traffic must be stopped whilst runners pass through.

The fact that runners pass through the

town centre and along the beach front gives them opportunity to take in the town sights and views. The route includes the paseos of Vistalegre and Juan Aparicio as well as the beaches of Cura and los Locos. It’s not a fun run although occasionally there are those who take part dressed up and raising money for charity.

Overall it is a serious race with at least

participating. The race is good for those who still want to keep running during their older years as there areseven veteran categories and in each category there are trophies for the top three athletes. The trophies were handed out at around 12.30 by the Monument of the Hombre del Mar on the sea front.

This year the overall half marathon was

20 per cent of those taking part being international athletes from around 18 different countries. ‘This percentage is increasing every year thanks to word of mouth,’ explains Fermín Egido of the organising body ‘Educanova’. ‘When people have returned to their country they have talked about the experience and now the weekend is turning into a holiday opportunity too.’

As usual, towns’ people were encouraged to come and cheer on those

won by Stuart Spencer with a time of one hour and nine minutes. Matleena Livson was the first female half marathon winner with a time of one hour and 26 minutes. In the 10k the winner was Hazma Chetoui with a time of 34 minutes and the first woman was Silje Lindstad with a time of 39 minutes.

If you didn’t manage to take part this year, then now is the time to start planning your training schedule ready for next year’s run.

Cleaning up the coast The Councillor for Road Cleaning, Dámaso Aparicio, has given details on the latest works programmes carried out, the cleaning of the rubbish containers across Orihuela Costa in recent days. This said the Councillor was a service that residents had been requesting for several years for hygiene reasons and to minimise smells.

In addition, the Department of Road Cleaning and Solid Urban Waste has hired a new driver, as well as a day worker and another night worker to ensure that the work done on the coast is

streamlined in order to improve the regular maintenance of the containers.

This initiative means a total of 683 clean containers from the beginning of the year and, said the Councillor, “brings a tangible benefit to the look and quality of our streets”. With the continuation of this cleaning programme, it is estimated that in a week the initiative will be competed and all the rubbish bins on the coast will be clean.

Councillor Aparicio also said that the

Department is expecting an investment for the acquisition of new containers through the municipal budget of 2017, with the aim of further improving the service offered to the local community.

GAS BLAST KILLS MAN IN SANTA POLA A gas explosion in an apartment in Santa Pola has left one man dead and caused a fire which destroyed three storeys, emergency services have revealed.

The blaze at number 7 Calle Almansa, was reported at 6.10pm on Saturday night and was the result of a butane gas bottle blowing up in the apartment where the man lived.

No-one else was inside the threestorey apartments – which are close to the seafront in the Gran Playa area - at the time, but the entire block was left a charred wreck.

Four fire engines from nearby Elche and a mobile intensive care unit rushed to the scene, but the victim, a 45-year-old man originally from Cuenca, is believed to

have died in the blast.

Local residents who live nearby rushed to his aid when they heard him shouting for help. They even tried to climb into his first-floor flat by standing on parked cars and to kick the door down from the outside, but they were beaten back by the flames and smoke and unable to rescue him.

Music competition held in Torrevieja Fourteen musical groups participated this year in the ‘Contest of the Alicante bands’.

The competition took place in the International Auditorium in Torrevieja and in the Casa de Cultura in Calpe. It is the 46th time that the event has been held and it aims to promote and publicise the importance of teaching and playing music.

The competition is divided into four categories which take place at different times. The first category took place on Saturday 25th February in the International Auditorium, The event opened at 5.30pm and participating was

an orchestra from Callosa de Segura and from Agost. From 10am bands in the third category took part from Rojales, Dolores and Novelda. In the afternoon at 4.30pm there were bands from San Miguel and Daya Nueva.

The bands taking part in the second category participated on Sunday 26th February. This part of the competition took place in Calpe and included musicians from Albatera and Novelda. Also on Sunday, bands taking part in the fourth category were able to demonstrate their ability. This included bands from Pego,

Benejúzar, San Isidro and Sella.

On both Saturday and Sunday the days events were closed by a performance of Torrevieja’s ‘la Unión Musical Torrevejense’ and la Unió Musical Calp-Ifach.

The jury comprised of people from the music world and participants were judged according to their tuning, sound, interpretation of set works and technique.

Those winning each category will now participate in the Valencian version of the competition, representing Alicante.

Wild animals rescued in Torrevieja Much publicity is given to the rescue of dogs and cats in Torrevieja but what about pythons? This is just one example of a wild animal that has had to be rescued by the town hall during 2016. Altogether there have been 32 different types of wild animals that have had to be caught and reintroduced to their actual habitats.

Other examples of rescued animals include a number of reptiles, seagulls, owls, bats, kestrels, snakes and eagles. All of these‘wild’animals have been rescued in urban areas and many of them are in fact protected species. The total number was announced on Friday

legged gulls, two more gulls, a kestrel, three common swifts, a pale swift and a common cormorant • two swarms of domestic bees In the case of the python, people living in la calle Hierro close to IES Mediterráneo alerted the Guardia Civil that the reptile was approaching down the road. This particular reptile is not native to the Mediterranean climate and cannot withstand the low temperatures at night. It is usually only found in a domestic context in Spain. Seagulls feature heavily in the list of rescued animals. An Audouin gull was found with a hook in its

24th February by councillor Fanny Serrano. The number of 32 is, in fact, five more than had been saved the previous year. The python was perhaps the most unusual of the animals to be rescued and it is likely that it had previously been a pet that was then abandoned.

An eagle was also one of the more unusual animals to find their way to the Wildlife Recovery Centre of the Environment Department.

The exact number and breakdown of the rescued animals can be seen on Torrevieja’s website torrevieja.es and includes: • Three snakes • One exotic snake – a python • Two mammals – a dormouse and a bat • 24 birds including a hawk eagle, a young owl, a common quail, ten Audouin seagulls, two yellow-

beak during a routine ringing of some of the birds near the salt works. The bird had to be transferred to the Wildlife Recovery Centre.

Another example was a common kestrel nest with four chicks which was found on the ninth floor balcony of the Hotel Playas. An expert was able to help hotel staff to move the nest to a terrace on the building from where the parents could resume their care of the chicks.

It’s not always the experts that do the rescuing. A resident of Aguas Nuevas rescued a bat and the town hall would like to remind people that if they do find any injured specimen outside their natural space that they can contact the local police on 092 or contact the zoological centre on 670 027 853 or, if it is a marine animals, they can call 112.

BRIT ROWER RESCUED TRYING TO ROW ACROSS THE ATLANTIC Maritime Rescue went to help the man as his boat was sinking 23 nautical miles south of Gran Canaria. 69 year old Graham Walters was well equipped with solar panels for power and was attempting this challenge in support for the charity Help for Heroes, and had departed from the Canaries archipelago after a stopover.

His target was to arrive at the Caribbean, and when his boat began to sink he was able to use a lifeboat raft equipped with a radio beacon.

At 08.57 in the morning the Canaries Maritime Rescue received the SOS from Mr Walters via the control centre in Madrid, in collaboration with an alert from the UK. The maritime rescue helicopter Helimer 210 left the

island in search for the sailor, as the lifeboat Menkalinan went to assist.

The helicopter spotted the rower at 09.48 according to coastguard sources. He was winched up into the helicopter and flown to Gran Canaria, where he arrived at the airport in Gando, around 10.25am.

However, the adventure wasn’t quite over for the Brit rower as the lifeboat arrived but the dinghy prepared for this type of rescue sank. When finally rescued, the man was in a good state of health and then the usual protocols were followed, with officers from the National Police Frontiers Group, and the representation of the corresponding consulate all on hand. Luckily the rapid rescue avoided a tragic end.

Torrevieja’s response to language teaching plans Debate continues about Valencia’s plans to impose new models of language teaching in the community’s schools. The decree of multi-lingual education will increase the use of Valencian to teach other subjects and there are three models available for schools to choose from. The more Valencian is taught the more English can be taught too. A situation which has annoyed many parents and teachers who feel that they are being bribed to increase the amount of Valencian teaching with the prospect of more English.

Now, the councillor for education, José Hurtado, has written to the relevant department in the Valencian government. His submission takes into consideration the views of parents and the needs of a multi-cultural town and he is keen to emphasise the need to find a solution to the controversy through establishing a ‘middle ground’.

He explains in the letter that there is concern expressed by parents that English language teachingwill lose out and that there are insufficient teachersavailable with sufficient language knowledge to carry out the plans.

There are concerns that there are not enough teachers of both English and Valencian in the region with the right level of skill. Councillor Hurtado argues that plans for training should have been in place first to ensure that the necessary staff are there to carry out the proposals.

The submission to Valencia also points out that there are many languages in Torrevieja and that Russian, in particular, is now a main language in the town and plans for the town’s language teaching should reflect this.

The Plumbago is a wonderful evergreen shrub for the addition of blue much of the year to your garden. Like so many plants in Spain, Plumbago (Plumbago auriculata), also known as Cape Leadwort, is a native of South Africa. This woody shrub with its beautiful azure blue flowers is an extremely reliable, resilient plant which has been popular for home gardens as well as for commercial landscapes for many years.

It can be pruned to grow like a vine and scramble over supports, pruned into a more compact shrub, or left to sprawl with its long gracefully arching branches. The flowers are born in rounded terminal clusters and look rather like Phlox flowers and the plants bloom for most of the year except for the coldest winter months. Plumbago flowers come in various shades of blue so buy plants in bloom to get the shade that you want.

Plumbagos are very fastgrowing and are rarely affected by diseases or pests, so are easy plants to look after.

C U LT U R E Plumbago does best in light, sandy soils with good drainage. Do not add lime to the soil; it likes a slightly acidic pH. The foliage may turn yellow due to manganese deficiency, but applying manganese sulfate will cure that. Plumbago needs to be pruned heavily to keep it neat and within bounds and to make it bushy to maximize the number of flowers. It produces its flowers on the current season's growth, so you can prune it in late winter and not worry about cutting off flower buds.

Light: Full sun. Flowering will be reduced in partial shade.

Moisture: Plumbago survives with little watering once established, and is considered moderately

drought tolerant.

Hardiness: It can withstand some frosts. Even if killed to the ground, it usually recovers quickly.

Propagation: Plumbago is propagated easily from seed, cuttings and suckers. Seed: Sow seed in spring in seedling trays. Use good seedling mix and cover the seeds lightly. Do not allow to dry out.

Cuttings: Plumbago can be propagated from tip cuttings in summer, before they get too woody.

Put them in a pot of sandy soil and keep them moist and out of intense sunlight until they start to grow.

Suckers: The easiest method of propagation is to remove rooted suckers from the mother plant.

USAGE Use Plumbago in borders, foundation plantings, and for colour massed in beds. It is also great as a container plant that spills over the sides with showers of pretty blue flowers. Many gardeners use Plumbago as a background or filler plant under and in front of shrubs that have stronger frameworks. It will scramble into trees if allowed and, depending on the size and style of your garden, you may need to control it. Plumbago also makes a very good informal or formal hedge as it responds well to pruning. It may need to be cut back after winter to keep it tidy, even if this is only

CostaBlancaPeople 28th February - 6th March 2017

done every few years. It is very useful in large gardens and landscapes as it forms suckers and will cover fairly big areas. Plumbago also makes a wonderful cover for a trellis: Prune it so that side shoots grow out to cover the framework and then let it loose to scramble. Plumbago is a great magnet for butterflies so that is an added bonus of this lovely plant.

Plumbago is also a medicinal herb and in France is known as dentelaire. It is said to relieve toothache if chewed. If a decoction is made of the roots in olive oil, it is apparently excellent for relieving itching.

There are a couple of drawbacks to Plumbago. The

roots form an invasive system which will dive under paths, patios and the house - although they will not do the same sort of damage as a large tree. The other problem, in our house anyway, is the dogs! The flowers are sticky, so whenever you - or your dog - brush against the shrub, you are likely to come away covered in blue flowers. When the flowers drop they turn black and glue themselves to the patio and the stains are quite hard to remove.

However, Plumbago provides many rewards for very little effort and is a very welcome addition to your Spanish garden.

She hates me

They are using me

After my best, and closest friend of 15 years dumped her cheating, abusive husband, I was elated - she had been treated very badly, and I didn’t hold back when I told her he had never been good enough for her, and that I had always disliked him. Two months later they got back together, and now my friend doesn’t want anything to do with me. I am devastated.

I have two girlfriends and we all have children around the same age. All of us used to go out before we had the kids, but now I find my other two friends are asking me to baby sit, while they go out for a girls night. I am hurt by this. I want to join them, not be their childminder. It’s getting to be quite a regular thing and they seem to think nothing of leaving me out. They just assume I will have the children, and then they don’t pick them up until the following morning.

If I were you, I would make myself less available for baby sitting in future. If your friends don’t contact you for reasons of friendship only, this will tell you that all they were interested in was using you to mind the children, while they partied. If things come to a head as a result, I would tell them how hurt you are. If they don’t realise the error of their ways, then I suggest you find some new friends.

It’s hard when we see someone we love being treated badly, and not make comment. You told your friend your true feelings about her husband, and it backfired when they got back together. As a precaution to anyone picking up the pieces for a friend or loved-one after a split - be supportive, but refrain from voicing any personal feelings.

All I can suggest is that perhaps, in time your friend will end this toxic relationship. I would write her a nice hand-written letter, saying you are sorry you said what you did, and that you will always be there for her if ever she needs you.

Then you have left the door open at least.

WELCOME TO CASTELSARDO with Vivalia Travel Castelsardo is a picturesque historic town on the northern coast of Sardinia. The old town, fortified with a castle, is an interesting and atmospheric place to visit, and Castelsardo's position makes it a good stop on a tour between western Sardinia and the islands and resorts of the east.

Castelsardo is a picturesque historic town on the northern coast of Sardinia. The old town, fortified with a castle, is an interesting and atmospheric place to visit, and Castelsardo's position makes it a good stop on a tour between western Sardinia and the islands and resorts of the east.

Today the town's handful of hotels are right down by the sea, with the workaday, traffic-filled bit of town spreading up over the saddle of land below the citadel, and the bit that tourists come to see is still preserved in its old city walls on the headland. While the old town and its

fortified coastal position are very appealing, the dual centres of Castelsardo - old town on the hill, new town down nearer the seashore - makes the town less user-friendly than a visitor might wish.

Hotels are down by the sea, but the drab lower town is not particularly welcoming in the evening; and the restaurants of the historic upper town, those which are open in the evening, are a trek uphill. I found Castelsardo to be at its best in the daytime.

A local town bus run by a company called Spina runs several times a day up to the castle, around the town and out to the nearby beach resort Lu Bagnu. This may be helpful for visitors. It is a tiring walk up to the castle, especially on a hot day; either along a zigzag road or steeply up an alley and steps. It is worth the climb, though.

The picturesque old town is completely different to the modern town spread below. There are old buildings, atmospheric lanes and stairways, and enticing cafe and restaurant tables set around corners and on terraces.

castle are cases containing all sorts of local woven products, from fishing nets to grain storage vessels. The castle was built by the Doria family of Genoa, and for several years in the fourteenth century Castelsardo, then called Castelgenovese, was the home of a Doria bride: the Sardinian heroine Eleanora d'Arborea. The museum is interesting, especially if you are thinking of purchasing some local woven craft products to take home. One of the best bits of the castle, though, is its terrace up among the battlements, with views over the town, along the coast, out to sea over the Gulf of Asinara and towards Corsica. The castle's opening hours vary considerably throughout the year; the lastest times can be found on the council (comune) website, listed on the right.

After touring the castle, it is well worth exploring the lanes and alleys down the slopes of the medieval citadel.

Restaurants and cafes have tables set up among the stairways and doorways, there are a few tourist and handicraft shops, and the citadel has a great deal of character. Traces of its grim, stone-clad, impoverished past are brightened by these modern tourist businesses. Old women sit in doorways weaving baskets, beckoning tourists over to admire their displayed goods, often very elaborate and attractive, far superior to the contents of souvenir shops (though rather tricky to pack in luggage).

Things to see and do Below the castle, descending through Castelsardo's castle, the Castello dei Doria, the lanes to the left, alongside the town is the town's principal tourist sight. It wall, are two churches which shouldn't be houses the Museo dell'Intreccio del missed on a tour of Castelsardo. Squeezed Mediterraneo, a museum of basket- into a courtyard right against the bare weaving, an important local handicraft. rock and defensive walls is a truly Around the various rooms and halls of the charming small church called Santa Maria

delle Grazie. Look out for the arm protruding from the wall, an unusual candle-holder. The church has notable painted wood altars, and a bowed stone gallery. Further down the slope, perched on a terrace overlooking the sea, is Castelsardo's cathedral. The building is very impressively sited, and is particularly dramatic at sunset, when its dark stony facade takes on picturesque warm hues.

The cathedral, dedicated to Sant'Antonio Abate, contains a prized fifteenth-century altarpiece by a fifteenth-century artist known only as the Maestro di Castelsardo.

The crypt (unreliable opening hours) contains a museum of religious art.

From the terrace by the cathedral, the visitor can admire grassy green slopes descending past a lower level of fortifications and down to the rocky seashore. Footpaths and steps have been laid out on these slopes, and although when I visited they seemed neglected, and the path network incomplete, this was still a lovely area to explore on foot, clambering down as far as the sea, with spots to sit in the sun and perhaps picnic before returning either up to the citadel or along the slopes to the modern part of town.

In the lower part of town there are several souvenir shops, claiming to specialise in handicrafts - artigianato - but generally stocking a vast amount of generic tourist tat. These are worth a glance, not so much in the hope of finding a treasure, but simply to marvel at the scale of the supermarket-size souvenir emporia.

In addition to out-of-town beaches such as Lu Bagnu - accessible by car, there is also a nice small beach in Castelsardo, on the seafront road close to most of the town's hotels. It's a sandy and pleasant spot, with a small cafe-bar in the summer.

One of the sights of which Castelsardo is most proud lies outside town, on the road to the east. An eroded rock outcrop draws visitors and photographers due to its remarkable resemblence to an elephant. The Roccia dell'Elefante lies alongside the SS134, a short drive from Castelsardo. Two neolithic tombs are cut into the rock.

EU profits as Trump turns away from trade The United States new found hostility to free trade deals under President Donald Trump is benefiting the European Union, the bloc's top trade official has said. After Trump’s withdrawal from the TransPacific Partnership trade deal in late January, “many countries are now turning to us, because they believe protectionism is not the right answer,” European Commissioner Cecilia Malmstrom recently told German business newspaper Handelsblatt.

“We are already negotiating with almost all of them, or preparing conversations” with the countries around the Pacific Rim that had signed up to the US-led treaty, she went on.

Since Trump’s election, the Commission has sped up talks with Mexico, South American trade bloc Mercosur, and Japan. It is preparing possible talks with Australia and New Zealand, and has a completed deal with Vietnam on the table, Malmstrom noted.

“We have a well-stocked pipeline of opportunity,” she said.

The trade chief also warned Trump against levying harsh tariffs on imported goods as he seeks to implement his ‘America first’ campaign pledge.

“President Trump promised in the election to do something, and of course he wants to fulfil this promise,” Malmstrom said.

But “there's a risk of worldwide retaliatory measures, and that would be very bad for our

economies and our citizens,” she added. “If things really go that far, there will be no winners.”

As among the American public, growing distrust of trade deals has made itself felt in Europe.

EU officials only just managed to get the CETA trade deal with Canada approved by the bloc's parliaments in October, after last-minute horsetrading with the Belgian region of Wallonia.

And there has been European resistance, including mass demonstrations, against a similar US-EU deal known as TTIP -- an agreement now less likely to be realised with Trump in the White House.

“Some states didn't do enough to catch the losers” from globalisation, Malmstrom acknowledged. “Things are changing very quickly,” she went on. “If politicians then come along with simple black-and-white solutions, that falls on fertile ground.”

But the EU can soothe citizens’ fears about globalisation by “striking good deals that bring growth and jobs and serve our values,” Malmstrom insisted.

One way of creating more support for trade deals could be ‘demystifying’ them by making negotiators’ mandates public, she suggested.

“These are not dangerous secret treaties, but very technical and largely extremely boring waltzes,” Malmstrom said.

Did you really say that?

A

s a Real Estate Agent, I have seen on many, many occasions homeowners that believe they have what it takes to sell any home. They thought they were in the wrong career and after watching so many property programmes, this was their long lost dream job.

What many people don’t understand is that it takes a skill to sell a home. Anyone can open a door and stand there, but what makes a true professional, is the way they actually verbalize the sale of the home to a potential buyer.

Some homeowners think, that as they’ve got nothing to hide, then pointing out every little feature, will easily convert a looker into a buyer in no time.

Sure, there are some things that simply must be told to the buyer, but there’s plenty more you might be volunteering when you would be truly better off keeping your mouth strategically closed.

Ever heard the expression, “less is more?” When selling your property, this is the ideal time to actually use that expression for what it’s worth.

“Our home is in perfect condition!” Everyone knows that nothing is perfect, and if you are committing to a “perfect conditioned home” then it had better be just that…. PERFECT! Every house, whether it’s a new build or a resale, has something that needs to be fixed, adjusted or improved.

“It’s been on the market for x amount of days.” This should never be discussed with any buyer, as they will see it as ammo for any offer they may be contemplating on making. Yes the information will be there for the buyer to find out, but you don’t need to be the one to bring this topic up.

“We were going to change that if we’d have been staying” Noone needs to be told the negatives of any house. And if you were planning on knocking down walls, or upgrading kitchens and bathrooms, the buyer doesn’t need to know, as this will force the buyers to think twice about 1. Would they want to take on these changes too after a short time of living there? and 2. Do the potential changes reflect in the asking price?

“We won’t take anything less than…” When selling a home you need to be a little flexible, and being firm with a buyer as you’re showing them around your home for the first time, is definitely NOT the right time to discuss whether you’re serious about selling or not.

Discussing your disapproval for any potential negotiations is like showing a red rag to a bull, to any buyer. You don’t want to send them a message that you are not open to negotiating, as buyers won’t even try to work out an acceptable price, as they will feel defeated from the start.

So if you feel you must at least say something to a potential buyer, tell them this…

“What a great question, but you’ll need to speak with my Real Estate Agent!”.

Straight to jail for fugitive tax fraudster caught in Spain A runaway tax fraudster is starting a six year jail sentence, after being extradited back to the UK from Spain by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) for failing to repay £1.5 million.

South African Leib Berger, 53, previously known as Lawrence Goldberg, was originally jailed for two years in September 2011 for stealing more than £1 million through a Self Assessment tax fraud. Posing as a nominated tax agent, he hijacked innocent people’s identities and invented other clients to send fraudulent tax returns to HMRC. In December 2012, he was ordered to repay £249,999 by December 2013 or receive a default prison sentence of 16 months. In an attempt to escape justice Berger fled to Spain. While he was at large, investigations by HMRC revealed he had further assets and in September 2015 the confiscation order was increased to £1.5 million. A month later the default prison sentence was amended to six years.

Berger was tracked down and arrested in Spain on 7 February 2017. He was extradited back to the UK on Tuesday 21 February 2017.

Five Common Situations in Spain That Can Only Be Resolved Retrospectively Spanish building licences are notoriously difficult; painstakingly slow to obtain and you can never be sure if they might be rejected. Here are 5 common situations that can only be resolved using a simple Certificate of Antiquity/Retrospective Licence.

1: Planning Laws for detached properties making garages, permanent carports, or any kind of roofed buildings that are violating the minimum required distance to the plot’s boundaries is a reason to decline a license. National planning laws for detached properties require a minimum distance between a window and a neighbour’s boundary of 2 metres. Regional and local laws may allow between 3 to even 5 metres or more. There are many variables depending on different factors. A Certificate of Antiquity is the only document that can avoid previous works being objected to by the planning department at the Town Hall.

2: Most glass or bricked enclosed terraces and porches are built without a proper licence. Spanish properties traditionally tend to have patios and courtyards, along with semi-opened spaces like porches and partially covered terraces to provide shelter from the sun and maximise on the outdoor lifestyle. These semi-opened spaces are easily closedin, but the bureaucracy is not as easy. These works, however small you might consider them, are adding to the registered square metres of the property and often permissions are declined. A Certificate of Antiquity is the only document that can make these works accepted by the planning department at the Town Hall and can also be used for updating the Title Deeds.

3: Rarely do we find a swimming pool that has

been correctly declared in the property’s Title Deeds or have the correct type of license. Of the small percentage of pools that do have a license, most often they are missing the Certificate by the Architect to sign off on completion. Nowadays a Certificate of Antiquity is the only document that can be used in order to add a pool into the property’s “Escritura” Title Deeds. A Building Licence alone is not sufficient.

4: Any shed, exterior built cupboard, semi-opened kitchen and other covered buildings or works such as a carport, must have a proper Major Licence, ‘Licencia Mayor’, if the interior height measures over 1.5 metres. This means the paperwork and legal fees for obtaining a licence can well exceed the cost of actually doing the building work itself.

One Certificate of Antiquity/Retrospective Licence is enough to cover all the extensions done, on any scale.

5: Underbuilds with living accommodation are rarely done with the correct licences and again, these can only be added to the Title Deeds using a Retrospective Licence.

A Certificate of Antiquity/Retrospective Licence is the only document that can prevent prosecution for any interior alterations done at the property or alterations that don’t meet the planning standards.

In all those scenarios the document needed is a Certificate of Antiquity also known as a Retrospective Licence. Once issued, this document acts as licence, protecting the owner against possible sanctions from the Town Hall. It is highly recommended to avoid putting off potential buyers due to the existence of illegal extensions in the property. It will also be needed on completion of the sale in order to update the property’s description in Title Deeds & Land

Registry.

In Alicante area, the building work needs to be over 4 years old, before 20th August 2014.

Only building work that hasn’t been fined or objected to can use a Certificate of Antiquity to protect against any future fines.

Only properly qualified and registered Spanish Architects are permitted to issue Retrospective Licences, so if your solicitors are studying your case, ask them to contact Martinez de la Casa Architects to provide the Antiquity Certificate and we will make the whole process easier, faster and cheaper with our fixed published prices and guaranteed deadlines.

The cost of an Antiquity Certificate/Retrospective Licence for pools is 190 € +IVA and extensions or complete properties only 270 € +IVA. Discounts are available if you also require an Energy Performance Certificate (121 € IVA Inc.), Habitation Licence (from 118 € IVA Included, Registration Tax not included) or any other of our services, done at the same time.

If you want to have YOUR Retrospective Licence/Antiquity Certificate for your extension or pool now, in accordance with present laws and protect against possible future changes in the laws that may affect you, Martinez de la Casa Architects will arrange an appointment and guarantee the delivery of the Certificate of Antiquity within 10 working days after our survey.

For all enquiries, or to arrange an appointment if you want to have your pool or extension certificate now and protect yourself against future law changes that may affect you, please call 665 810 411 or visit www.martinezdelacasa.com to see an impressive list of nearly 200 client's testimonials.

Compulsory charge for carrier bags from 2018 All shops in Spain will be required by law to charge a minimum of five cents for plastic carrier bags – and in some cases, could end up applying prices of up to 30 cents. The Ministry for the Environment led

by Isabel García Tejerina says free plastic bags will be banned from 1st January next year in an attempt to cut their use, in line with the European Directive of 2015 which all member States are obliged to apply progressively.

Bags of less than 50 micrograms in density, or the lightweight, easily-breakable supermarket kind, cause the highest levels of pollution, including the water supply, although all sizes of carrier bag will be given a cost.

Spain has chosen to apply the EU rule ahead of its deadline of New Year’s Eve on 2018.

Member States may choose not to charge for bags, but to limit their use to 90 per person per year by 2020 and 40 by 2026, although most EU countries have opted for applying a cost.

In Spain alone in the year 2014 – the most recent for which figures are available – a total of 4.7 tonnes of plastic bags of the denser, more resistant type were manufactured – around 158 million of them – showing consumers are tending to opt for stronger and larger carrier bags if they have to pay for them.

But prices are set to rise on these almost threefold, since the maximum shops can charge for them is 30 cents and many may well choose to do so. Very lightweight bags, those of up to 29 micrograms and typically flimsy and breakable will be charged at a minimum of 10 cents, or five cents if they are biodegradable.

Denser varieties must cost at least 15 cents, or 10 if they can be broken down as compost.

Bags made with additives that allow them to biodegrade rapidly will be banned altogether if

they are less than 50 micrograms, or the typical non-reinforced supermarket carrier bag.

This is because the chemicals that are used in their manufacture mean they cannot be recycled or used as compost, but reinforced bags of 50 micrograms or more will still be available, albeit at the maximum price of 30 cents to discourage their use.

Very lightweight bags will continue to be free of charge where they are necessary for hygiene or food conservation reasons, such as those used for fruit and vegetables and from the fish, meat and cheese counters. These smaller versions account for 23 percent of the annual 62,500 tonnes of lightweight plastic bags manufactured annually in Spain.

For some years now, most supermarkets have been charging between one and five cents for small carrier bags and around 10 cents for larger, stronger ones, but in less than a year, this will become obligatory and shops which do not do so will be fined.

The average resident in Spain uses 133 carrier bags a year, of which fewer than 10 percent are recycled, with the rest ending up in landfill sites, incinerators, or the sea.

But they are not the most wasteful of Europeans in terms of carrier bag use – the average is 198 per year per person, or well over double the limit of 90 the EU wants to see in place by the year 2020. This said, a recent survey has shown that 87.5 percent of Spanish shoppers bring their own bags with them to the supermarket.

HOSPITAL QUIRÓNSALUD TORREVIEJA PRESENTS REVOLUTIONARY MOBETRON CANCER TREATMENT The hospital is a pioneer in the incorporation of Mobetron in Spain, the mobile electron accelerator in the operating room.

Hospital Quirónsalud Torrevieja presents the treatment of cancer with intraoperative radiotherapy (RIO) in an operating room that suppresses or reduces external irradiation sessions.

Treatment in patients with early breast cancer, called one step therapy, allows surgical removal of the tumor, irradiation and oncoplastic reconstruction of the breast, suppressing external radiation therapy sessions. Dr. Rosa María Cañón, responsible for the Radiation Oncology Unit of the Oncology Platform of the Hospital Quirónsalud Torrevieja, explains that “the procedure in the operating room of the irradiation lasts 30 minutes, which avoids the 25 or 30 sessions of external irradiation of the Conventional treatments“.

RIO is a high-precision technique in

which a single and elevated fraction of radiotherapy is administered during a surgical procedure on the tumor site, with the advantage of direct treatment of the tumour site itself, avoiding the unnecessary treatment of healthy tissues in surrounding areas.

RIO has been used in the treatment of different malignant tumours, such as gastric, pancreatic, rectal, lung, gynaecological, retroperitoneal and limb sarcomas, usually in programs that associate external irradiation, to increase local control of the illness. Although special application is in the treatment and cure of breast cancer, as long as it is indicated by the specialist.

According to Dr. Cannon, "the main drawbacks in the past have been the transferring of the patient from the operating room to the treatment bunker, a problem that has now been solved by the development of small electron

accelerators that are located in the operating room, which avoids the risks of such transfer, shorten the time of the procedure and increases the quality of life of patients.

The RIO with Mobetron allows the treatment of a great variety of tumours with the aid of a multidisciplinary team The Mobetron (unique in Spain) is a mobile electron accelerator, located in the operating room, whose technology, according to Dr. Cañón, allows treatment to be administered to different tissues, thicknesses and volumetric cavities, that is to say, to a great variety of tumours and locations, not only to patients with breast cancer.

The treatment is carried out through collaboration with the other departments involved (surgeons, anaesthesiologists, gynaecologists, pathologists, medical oncologists, etc.) who work in a coordinated multidisciplinary program.

37

In the treatment of patients with breast cancer, it provides a great benefit in quality of life, since it shortens or suppresses the days of posterior external irradiation, decreases the side effects and, in the cases of one step, allows the immediate breast reconstruction.

The RIO treatment is integrated in the current multidisciplinary cancer treatment programs, which aim is to increase the cure rate of patients.

SAMARITANS IN SPAIN Samaritans is a charity established in the UK by Chad Varah in 1953. Since then it has grown exponentially and more recently, has spread even to countries like Spain.

The Samaritans’ main function is to listen to anyone who is experiencing distress. Communication is mostly via telephone, free of charge. There is also an opportunity to speak to front line staff at the shop and in the privacy of the Samaritan’s drop-in centre at Punta Marina commercial centre. Samaritans are also accessible by email.

All listeners are trained volunteers who serve in rotas and are available 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year. How many hours or how often they offer their services (‘listen’) is up to the individual volunteer.

Samaritans listen to people who are either lonely, or feel themselves unable to express their feelings, concerns, or problems to those around them.

They do not ‘counsel’, but provide an empathetic ear. Volunteer listeners are drawn from all backgrounds, all ages, and

all walks of life.

After initial training all new listeners are supported with mentoring. It is not only those who face life traumas, bereavement, or those burdened with guilt, who contact Samaritans. ‘Anyone who feels the need for emotional support, encouragement and lacking confidence will benefit by talking to a Samaritan.

A call to the Samaritans could last a few minutes or much longer, since callers are never rushed.

The need for this type of help in the community is exemplified by the rapid expansion of Samaritans in Spain since its inception in September 2005.

Increasingly, Samaritans in Spain not only require more volunteer listeners for its primary function, but also to help in administration, publicity and other varied roles.

With branches in Madrid, Denia and a charity shop and drop-in centre in Punta Marina (Punta Prima), the latter established in 2013, Samaritans in Spain are now a regular feature as a charity in Costa Blanca (North and South).

Facebook user faces huge fine A facebook user has been issued a fine of 30,000 euros for posting an uncomplimentary video of a police officer online. Last November a Facebook user in Spain posted a video of a police officer who failed to catch a suspect he was chasing. The scene was filmed from inside a car in the north-western city of Santiago de Compostela, in Galicia. In the video, which has now been removed, a voice can be heard seemingly mocking the police officer for being out of shape.

The Facebook post received more than 300 shares and 17,000 views, according to regional daily La Voz de Galicia. However, not seeing the funny side, the police have presented a proposal to fine the author of the post, using Spain’s Law on Public Safety – also known as the ‘gag law.’ The fine could be as high as 30,000 euros.

Some reports, including the article in La Voz de Galicia, suggested that the police also wanted to fine everyone who “liked” the video on Facebook.

However a spokesperson from the National Police in Santiago told Verne that those reports were “definitely false.” The official who wrote the proposal for the sanction only did so against the person who published the video, not for those who pressed the ‘like’ button or shared it or whatever else,” said the spokesperson.

The spokesperson explained that the proposal for the sanctions is based on two legal articles. The first has to do with the “mockery, taunts and disrespect toward the officer, who represents an institution – the National Police force.” Article 37.4 of the law says “disrespect and a lack of consideration toward police forces or public security forces carrying out their work,” is a minor infringement of the law. Those accused of violating it can face fines ranging from €100 to €600.

In the video, according to La Voz de Galicia, those making the film were questioning if the physical condition of the police officer affected his performance. The police explained that the man the officer was chasing was a psychiatric patient from a nearby hospital. “He tried to catch him, but sometimes you can do more harm than good, for

example, if the chase ends in a traffic accident,” explained the spokesperson, justifying the officer’s failure to detain the patient.

The police are also basing the proposal for the fine on article 36.22, which prohibits: “the unauthorised use of images or personal or professional data of the authorities or members of the police forces or public security forces that could put the personal safety of the officer or their family members in danger.”

This is considered a serious offense and can result in a fine of between €601 and €30,000. “The application of the sanction is not the responsibility of the police,” said the same source.

Decision pending The police spokesperson insisted that as yet no sanction is in place, but rather a proposal for one, which will be decided upon by the central government’s sub-delegation in A Coruña, the regional capital of Galicia.

When asked, the sub-delegation said it had not received a copy of the police proposal. “When we receive it we will study it to see whether or not it should be pursued or archived,” said a spokesperson.

Ricky Martin to tour Spain in May DOLPHIN WASHED UP Tickets will go on sale this month for Ricky Martín’s six concerts in Spain as part of his One World tour, due to land on the old continent in May. The chart-topping Puerto Rican artist will start his Spanish leg of the trip with a show on Saturday, 13th May in A Coruña, in the northwestern region of Galicia, then in Bilbao, in the Basque Country, the following day.

He will hit Barcelona for a concert at the Palau Sant Jordi stadium on Tuesday, 16th May, and will perform at Valencia bull ring on Friday, 19th May before heading to the La Cartuja stadium in Sevilla the following day.

The last date in Spain will be at the WiZink Centre, the main sports stadium in Madrid, on Tuesday, 23rd May. Ricky Martín’s world tour has seen him on the road for the last year and a half non-stop, beginning in New Zealand in 2015 and then taking him to México, the USA, Canada, Latin America, and finally Europe.

He has been performing tracks from his latest album, A quien quiera escuchar (‘Whoever wants to listen’), including the single he released in September, Vente pa'ca (‘Come ‘ere’) with Colombian artist Maluma – a record which went to the top of the charts in Chile, the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Colombia, México and Panamá.

Other major hits, spanning Martín's entire career, will include: Come with me, She bangs, La mordidita, Tal vez, Livin’ la vida loca, Pégate, Adiós, La bomba, Asignatura pendiente and his FIFA World Cup anthem, Cup of life.

The support act will be the new young band CNCO, which has just launched its album Primera cita (First date). Tickets will be on sale from 10.00am on Thursday, 23rd February, via the usual channels.

An adult dolphin was found washed up in the Cala de la Zorra in Torrevieja on Monday morning 20th February. The beach cleaning service came across the

Spanish man killed in ‘horrific dog attack’ A Spanish man has been mauled to death in what police believe was a vicious attack by his neighbour's five dogs. The 66-yearold was discovered by his son lying on the ground covered in wounds “caused by animal bites” which police suspect were the work of the dogs. The animals are said to be crossed between pit bulls considered dangerous - and bull terriers.

The victim left his home in Beniarbeig, just in-land from Javea, last Saturday to tend to his vegetables nearby, the Guardia Civil police force said in a statement issued last week. When his son realised he had been gone a long time, he went to look for him and found him lying on the ground in a “horrific scene”, they added.

Police said the state of his arms and legs suggested that the man fought hard before he died. There are no dangerous wild animals in the area, and suspicion soon fell on a neighbour whose dogs

have caused problems in the past.

“The dogs didn’t have any trace of blood on them, but police realised that one of them was soaking wet, as if it had just been washed,” the Guardia Civil said.

“The owner alleged he had fallen in the pool.”

Police took DNA from the dogs to confirm whether they killed the man. If they did, the owner could face charges of involuntary manslaughter.’ The dogs, meanwhile, were taken to a shelter where they bit a worker and destroyed the cage they were kept in, police said.

Spain, like many other countries, strictly regulates the ownership of potentially dangerous dogs. Potential owners have to undergo physical and psychological tests to make sure they are fit to own them. The dogs have to be muzzled in public places and must be kept on short leashes.

body of the dolphin and activated the protocol for dealing with such a find.

The Local Police were called out and the animal was taken to the Institute of Biodiversity and Evolution at the University of Valencia. The autopsy will take place there.

The dolphin was two metres long and weighed approximately 90 kg. Its upper jaw was fractured and this is believed to be the likely cause of death.

Olive oil prices in Spain soar The price of Olive Oil sold in Spain is set to soar to record levels, amid fears of global shortage and just as Europe is still reeling from the recent vegetable crisis.

Experts have warned that things are about to get worse in the kitchen, as the next crisis in food supply will be a global olive oil shortage.

Prices in Spain have hit a record high – with averages of €3.80 per kilo of virgin extra and €3.70 per kilo of virgin olive oil.

A hot and dry summer in Spain led to the worst harvest in nearly 20 years this year.

Italian production is also suffering, as an outbreak of Xylella fastidiosa bacteria has infected more than a million trees and decimated the crop. Prices are rising in the UK as well, with the head of the UK’s best-selling olive oil brand, Filippo Berio UK, warning that the price of the Spanish import could increase by up to a third more this year.

Vegetarian revolution Nearly one in 13 Spaniards are vegetarians or vegans, and restaurants and food stores are rising to the challenge of catering to a market worth over US$4 billion per year worldwide.

A report titled The Green Revolution, by marketing consultants Lantern, carried out 2,000 telephone interviews on a stratified sample of the population and found that the number of non-meat eaters has risen sharply in the last five years.

Even in the last decade, vegetarianism in Spain was extremely rare, often unknown and frequently frowned upon with even doctors claiming it was impossible to follow a meat-free diet without lacking in essential nutrients.

But now, according to the research, 0.2 percent are vegan, meaning they do not consume any animal produce whatsoever. Lantern split vegetarians into sub-categories, including pescatarians, who eat fish but not meat, and ‘flexitarians’, who only occasionally and sporadically consume animal protein, which may or may not include meat.

Of the total of 7.8 percent who called themselves ‘veggies’, 6.3 percent said they were ‘flexitarians’.

Nearly 60 percent of vegetarians said they did not eat meat for ‘ethical’ or ‘animal-loving’ reasons – way ahead of the 21 percent who considered such a diet ‘more sustainable’ in environmental terms and the

17 percent who felt it was a healthier way to live.

Although the meat industry could, potentially, suffer if the trend grows too fast, the vegetarian and vegan food production sector has already reported massive growth in Spain.

The number of restaurants and food stores catering exclusively, or partially, to non-meat eaters and non-animal product eaters has more than doubled since 2011, with a total of 800 on record by the end of 2016, The Green Revolution claims.

Union-led wage protests A series of demonstrations ware underway calling for increasing salaries, greater job security and more quality employment. Spain's main unions, the Labourers' Commission (CCOO), led by Ignacio Fernández Toxo, and the General Workers' Union (UGT), headed up by Pepe Álvarez have organised the protest marches which will take place in 40 towns and cities over the coming days.

They say inflation combined with salaries and pensions not rising or even reducing, along with much higher levels of temporary, shortterm jobs, are increasing relative poverty in Spain.

Although the government’s measures have led to an overall drop in unemployment, this has come with a rise in lower-paid, poorer-quality jobs and a much higher staff rotation with long periods in between brief, temporary work contracts, argue the CCOO and UGT, especially in parts of the country which rely heavily on seasonal industries such as tourism.

As a result, says Álvarez, poverty is no longer only the malady of the unemployed.

“Tens of thousands of families are unable to manage until their next payday, and in the meantime, the very wealthy minority are becoming richer,” he complains.

Protests taking place today will mainly be in central areas of major

cities or outside government offices, with the largest expected to be in Madrid, starting from the Plaza de Neptuno and finishing in the Puerta del Sol square in the heart of the metropolitan area.

Andalucía, Galicia and Aragón are likely to be the most active, although the Canary Islands does not intend to join in.

Demonstrations on Wednesday last week will focus on regional

authorities' offices and smaller towns. Organisers will be clamouring for barriers to collective negotiation, whereby unions have a significant influence in working conditions and pay agreements, to be removed.

They say prices are going up all the time with inflation and people's income remains the same or has actually declined in recent years, meaning employees and pensioners alike are 'losing spending power'.

The CCOO and UGT also highlight ‘hefty increases’ experienced recently in the cost of basic utilities, particularly electricity, and point out that pensioners are now struggling more than ever since the government has only put their income up by the legal minimum of 0.25 percent for the last three years.

A recent step forward, however, has been an increase in the minimum wage for a full-time 40hour week from €655 to €707 a month, with a pledge to take it up to €950 within two years. This is the gross minimum salary, but those earning under €12,000 a year generally do not have to pay income tax.

Olive oil good for bad cholesterol A new study into the effects of olive oil on cholesterol levels and circulatory health has shown that the so-called ‘Mediterranean diet’ may be even more beneficial to optimum organ function than first thought.

Researchers at Barcelona's Hospital del Mar Institute of Medical Investigations (IMIM) found that a diet rich in extra-virgin olive oil improves the work of highdensity lipoproteins or HDLs, known as

‘good cholesterol’. The job of HDLs is to extract ‘bad’ cholesterol from the arteries and transport it to the liver, which eliminates it from the body.

And according to the findings published in Circulation magazine, extravirgin olive oil heightens the ability of HDLs to do this, making elimination of ‘bad’ cholesterol more effective and complete.

Until now, says the IMIM team, the

benefits of the soi-disant ‘good’ cholesterol have only been demonstrated in clinical trials with medication, through surgical interventions, or through studies involving increasing consumption of certain specific foodstuffs – but as yet, no study has been carried out focusing on changing the patient's diet completely.

“We compared two types of Mediterranean diet: one rich in olive oil and the other rich in nuts; both within the context of a low-fat diet,” says the research team.

“We saw that adhering to a traditional Mediterranean diet, especially one rich in olive oil, was associated with a significant improvement in HDL functions.”

Research group coordinator Montse Fitó – who is also part of the team at the Biomedical Research Centre's Obesity and Nutrition Physio-pathology Network (CIBEROBN) – says numerous scientists have recently indicated that the biological functions of HDLs are those which best explain the cardiovascular protection element of 'good' cholesterol.

She says this would explain why people with circulatory and heart conditions have worse-functioning HDLs than those with healthy cardiovascular systems. The study involved extracting HDLs from blood samples before heart operations and a year after the patient had followed an exclusively Mediterranean diet.

The study, which opens the door to new forms of treatment being developed to improve HDL function and control and prevent cardiovascular conditions, has attracted the attention of the American Heart Association – the world's most prestigious heart and circulation health organisation.

Eddie from the UK asks: Hello aunty. I bought a Dell Inspiron laptop back in Jan to replace my aging Toshiba but I find it is slower than my Toshiba (both have windows 10). I took it to PC World and the ladies that dealt with me started it and as soon as it opened, SuperAntiSpyware popped up and she said “there's your problem you have a virus” so I explained about yourself and that you have always recommended SuperAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes and also Windows Defender. She insisted that except for Malwarebytes the other two were no good, can you advise on the above?

Aunty Says: Wow that ‘s a bit scary Eddie. I’ve witnessed more than my fair share of stupidity but even by PC World’s standards that shows a new level of incompetence. Are you sure you hadn’t accidently popped into Pets World instead of PC World?

Superantispyware is most definitely not a virus and is still a very popular and useful free antispyware program.

Over the years it may have lost some ground to Malwarebytes, but I run a

www.costablancapeople.com

weekly scan with both and they often find different threats. Microsoft’s free Windows Defender is fine for most of us and will do a good a job as most of the freebie antivirus programs out there, but maybe do some Googling research as this marketplace shifts an awful lot. Did these goons follow this up with some sales pitch about an overpriced subscription to McAfee or Norton by any chance?

Ernie via email asks: I’m getting a bit old and falling apart and I suspect my eyesight isn’t what it used to be, I’ve been trying to kid myself that it’s the writing on the internet that has gotten smaller but who am I kidding? I have seen it done by my Grandson where he quickly make the screen much bigger (or smaller) but I can’t figure out which keys he pressed. Can you help?

Aunty Says: Hi Ernie. If you hold down the Ctrl key (usually bottom left) and simultaneously press the + or – key you should see the screen zoom in and out.

You can also do this by holding down the Ctrl key and rolling the mouse scroll wheel

back and forth. Top Tip: The Ctrl + mouse wheel option works on most Windows programs and is a quick and fun way of making your desktop icons huge.

Wendy from Montesinos asks: Is it safe to use a vacuum cleaner to clean out all of the dust and fluff that has accumulated around the vents on my computer? I heard somewhere that you can damage computers using a hoover.

Aunty Says: Hello Wendy. I’ve always used a hoover and have never caused any damage. There is a theory that as the air is sucked in by the hoover it spins and twists into a spiral which apparently causes static electricity but I’ve never actually heard of this actually happening to anyone. I’ve seen keys sucked off laptop keyboards but a low suction setting and a moderation of common sense should suffice.

That’s all for this week, email me your problems to auntyvirus@costablancapeople.com and I will see what I can do.

Hyperloop train designed by Spanish students A team of Spanish university students is to present their prototype of a train capable of traveling up to 1,000km/h this summer in the next phase of the ‘Hyperloop’ Pod Competition. The contest aims to create a long-distance, high-speed transportation system and has been set up by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, the co-founder of the Tesla electric car company, among other technological initiatives.

Five students from the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) began work on their project more than a year ago and have now been joined by 25 others with the goal of presenting the train at the final Hyperloop trials this summer to be held at Musk’s SpaceX headquarters in Los Angeles. Musk’s challenge to

universities around the world is to come up with a system to propel a pod-like vehicle through a near-vacuum tube at more than airline speed.

The UPV team was selected in January 2016 by a SpaceX panel from dozens of universities to present their project. After securing sponsorship, UPV Hyperloop team is now further honing its design of a two-meter-long, 1.5meter-high pod, which has cost some €100,000 and will be tested at SpaceX in a few months.

The team was established after one of its members learned about Musk’s Hyperloop initiative in 2015. It is now competing with around 30 institutions, including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), whose prototype was

chosen as best design in 2016; Munich University, which was judged to have come up with the fastest and most stable model; and Delft University, which won the most points in all categories at the January 2017 Hyperloop event, held at SpaceX headquarters in Los Angeles.

In January of this year, the team traveled to Los Angeles, where they were able to see the Hyperloop’s 1.5 kilometer test circuit, one of the largest vacuum chambers in the world.

“We saw prototypes that can fit in a suitcase and others that weighed more than 1.5 tons,” says Juan Vicén, a founder member of the team.

“The technology already exists and is being used in different fields: the idea

now is to combine it and apply it to this project,” says fellow founder member Daniel Orient, explaining that the concept is a combination of a train infrastructure with aviation technology.

Vicén says he doesn’t know what will happen after the second phase of the competition this summer. “Nobody can guarantee that when you invent a means of transport it will work perfectly, but there are signs that this could be viable and we want to do everything possible to contribute to it,” he explains.

The UPV team says the technology could be used to connect Europe’s main ports for the transportation of goods.

Rock star status The team members say they were impressed by Musk. “He’s like a rock star.

He encouraged us to continue and insisted that we were taking part in something unique,” says Vicén.

Elon Musk dubbed Hyperloop “the fifth form of transportation” when he launched the idea in 2012. The concept is not dissimilar to Japan’s bullet train,

which uses magnetic fields to float above rails. But Hyperloop aims to reach speeds of up to 1,000km/h by avoiding air friction.

Musk put together a team to work on a theoretical model in 2013, and since then, has invited the scientific community to come up with the best way to put theory into practice.

Hyperloop One and Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HTT) are two US companies now working on their own prototypes. The first has already secured €130 million in financing and is now building installations to put the technology needed to the test, saying it intends to come up with a working system by 2020. In May 2016 it demonstrated its progress in Las Vegas.

HTT will be based in the French city of Toulouse. Although it has so far only raised €25 million to date, it has already reached an agreement with the Slovak government and the city of Brno to carry out a viability study to link it with the Czech city of Bratislava.

Barcelona gas lorry police chase The local and regional police forces in Barcelona arrested the driver of a gascanister delivery truck last Tuesday morning after he drove his vehicle the wrong way up the B-10 freeway, also known as the Ronda Litoral, in the Catalan capital. The vehicle was shedding gas canisters during the chase, which started near the Drassanes area, in Ciutat Vella district.

The detainee, who is of Swedish origin, managed to drive onto the access ramp

to the Ronda Litoral at around 11am, after having stolen the vehicle shortly beforehand. The police had to fire shots at the driver in a bid to make him stop.

The suspect was not injured in the incident.

The driver managed to smash the vehicle into several cars during the chase.

Police sources say that the man has a history of mental illness. The Mossos d’Esquadra regional police have opened an investigation into the incident to

establish exactly what happened. For now all theories are being considered.

The man stole the truck at 10.40am in VilĂ VilĂ street in Barcelona, while the driver was delivering gas canisters, according to Spanish news agency EFE. From that moment on a frenetic highspeed chase ensued, with the truck shedding its load of gas canisters, and crashing into cars along the 11-kilometer route taken before the police could bring the stolen vehicle to a halt. One woman has been reported as suffering light injuries.

Nearest the pins : Hole 5 and Hole 6, Ian Henderson.

3rd Place - Net Handicap 11.6, Allen Robinson, Keith Smith, 60.4 Shots .

2nd Place - Net Handicap 15.0 , Ian Henderson, Penny Goujon, 59.0 Shots.

La Siesta Golf Society A TALE OF THREE M’s The weather first thing in the morning cast a doubt whether or not the Club Championship for 2017 would take place.

It was dry and sunny but with extremely strong winds which if they had continued would not have allowed the ball to stop on the greens. Fortunately by the time the first of the 29 players teed off the winds had eased but still making playing conditions difficult. The course itself was in very good condition which after the extraordinary weather in the previous weeks, snow and heavy rain showed the good work done by the staff at Campoamor Golf Club the home of La Siesta Golf Society.

Fourteen oh the holes were sponsored by members and those prizes were spread evenly, the main results were; In first place winning the Club Championship wasTrevor Wheeler Runner up in second place Hazel Bellingham Third place Rose Cox Fourth place Pam Howard-Oates

Fifth place Harry Pearson Sixth place Betty Trotter The most improved player of 2016 Les Mann The Best front 9 holes Gail Mosley, the best back 9 holes Mike Pawley The only '2' of the day was won by Kevin Johnson.

The competition was followed in the evening by 54 people attending a dinner dance at Campoamor Golf Club when once again the staff did a wonderful job The prizes were presented by the Captain Michael O’Regan assisted by the ViceCaptain Ray Scott and a special mention was made to the President Ken Harvey who had organised the days golf, the prizes and the great entertainer Andy Jones who had most of us up dancing all night once the meal had finished Anyone wishing to play with La Siesta who meets every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday should ring the Captain on 646416182.

Monte win “ugly” CD Montesinos 2 – 0 FB REDOVAN CF Sometimes you play a game of football and everything goes according to plan.

All the moves come off and you end up winning by a cricket score. Well, this was certainly not one of those games and was in fact not one of CD Montesinos best games of the season. Despite that, the players were good enough on the day to take all three points and keep up their unbeaten record under Manager Carlos Perez.

Redovan arrived at the “Cauldron” in Los Montesinos looking to make it tough for the in-form side, something they had already in the first meeting between the clubs and this time around it was no different. The visitors would have been given a huge lift when they saw that both Vazquinho and Maccan, two regular and respected first team players, were missing from the team sheet. Maccan due to injury and Vazquinho serving the last of the two match ban for picking up a red card a few weeks ago.

But on a cold windy day which was not

ideal to play the fast, free flowing football that “Monte” have played this season, the home club took all the points with a goal in each half, the first scored by Carlos Ventura and the second by German with an assist from Ventura.

This latest win for Monte, their 10th of the season, leaves the club in fourth position with 29 points. But there is only three points separating them from the league leaders (who have played an extra game – 16) so there is still everything to play for in this group. The top side will automatically gain promotion and almost certainly the side finishing in second place will most likely also be promoted.

CD Montesinos team:- Dani, Fernando, Manu, Carlos Lorente, German, Koko, Fran, Alfredo, Dimitri, Joao, Carlos Ventura. Sub’s:- Rodrigo, Juannes, El Bashir, Auren, Pley.

Keep an eye on the club’s website (www.cdmontesinos.com) or facebook page (cdmontesinos) for further information and match schedule.

VAMOS MONTE!!!

Messi

Mercado, Messi and Morata, scorers of the decisive late goals that kept Sevilla, Barcelona and Real Madrid, respectively, in their lofty positions at the head of La Liga. Sevilla were the first in action, meeting derby rivals Betis in a typical bruising clash. Betis took an early lead, which Sevilla equalized right on half-time, then Mercado struck late in the game to put Sevilla, briefly, in top spot. Barcelona then had a tough one, visiting Atletico Madrid. A match with more passion than football looked to be heading for a draw until the little man had his inevitable say – Messi’s double strike on 86 minutes taking Barça clear at the top. Real Madrid also had a hard job, away at Villareal – not an easy side to score against this term.

Two defensive errors – again – let the home side go two up early in the second half, they having dominated the first. This, however, spurred the ‘merengues’ into action, and Cristiano hit a post before Bale headed home a Carvajal cross. Then a defender handled in the area, and Cristiano made no mistake from the spot.

A late header by Morata from Marcelo’s cross was all Real Madrid needed to keep them in the lead. Earlier Real Sociedad haad taken advantage of a horrible goalkeeping error to beat Las Palmas, and

slip into fifth place, just a point behind Atletico, with Villareal slipping back to sixth. Eibar stay in a meritorious seventh, after thrashing Málaga, Sergi Enrich again on target. Another good result was achieved by Leganés, who beat Deportivo 4-0, to transfer their relegation worries to the A Coruña side.

In the second division, Levante could only draw 1-1 away at Atletico Sevilla, but stay nine points ahead at the top, with Girona, who won away at Mirandés, a further seven points clear of the pack, in second. Local side Elche, not enjoying a very good season, could only draw at home against Huesca. The best news in division 2B continues to come from Alcoyano, who won again, away at Eldense, to stay within a point of Barcelona B. Hercules’ challenge is rather falling away, as they again went down at home.

The big news in England was of José Mourinho’s first trophy with Manchester United, as they beat Southampton 3-2 to take the League Cup for the fourth time.

In the league, Chelsea squeezed past Swansea after Llorente had given them a fright, and are now miles clear of the field.

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

What a week in football. We started with #PieGate, we slipped into #ClaudioGate, had Stoke unable to #ShutTheGate live on Sky TV and then, finally, #ZlatanDoesItAgainGate. Why is everything #Gate now? I wonder if Wayne Shaw, the pie-eating Sutton United reserve goalkeeper, had a bet on Claudio getting the sack before the weekend matches kicked off. Gary Lineker claimed to shed a tear when he heard the news, probably as he had a monkey on Leicester going down. Vardy and Schmeichel claimed they had nothing to do with the Italian getting the sack, though their on-field performances do suggest otherwise.

Allegedly, the final straw for the players came when Ranieri selected Musa over Gray for the game in Seville. To be fair, the players were probably right to grumble about that selection but for the supposed “infamous four” of Vardy, Schmeichel, Albrighton and Morgan to have a private meeting with the owners and say Ranieri was doing a bad job? A touch hypocritical hey, Wes? I mean, I watched you play in Seville and you did a bad job. How about they sack you?

Still, 99% of the people taking part in the social media outcry over the sacking were part of the social media outcry that greeted Claudio when he was appointed. Never forget, this was the guy everyone thought was going to take Leicester down last year as he had led Greece to a defeat against the Faroe

Islands in his previous job. It turns out that winning the damn league gets you the sack pretty soon after, so once again Wenger is showing he is light years ahead of his rivals. It was nice to see Jose coming out in support on Friday, slating the Leicester players for getting his mate Claudio the sack. Players getting the manager the sack is not something Jose is at all familiar with.

Anyway, some football was played this weekend. Antonio Conte is highly confident that Chelsea will go on and lift

Antonio Conte

the title, which probably means he is already looking over his shoulder for the managerial grim reaper. Conte says he has players “experienced in winning things” which, one would presume, helps. Swansea were denied a clear penalty at 1-1 which, of course, allowed Chelsea to go up the other end and get two more, including yet another goal for Costa.

There was also a little something

going on at Wembley. The unknown quantity, according to everyone’s favourite pundit Jamie Redknapp, that is former Serie A and Napoli striker Manolo Gabbiadini was the first player ever to score a hat-trick in a League Cup Final. Sorry, what’s that? The officials completely banjaxed it up and they disallowed the first one? Next you’ll tell me United went straight down the other end and scored. Oh. Then it was 20 United? Job done then, a Jose team would never let a side back in from there in a major cup final. 2-2 with five minutes to go, United on the ropes? Tell me Southampton won! Of course not, because as we all know, Zlatan has one hell of a script writer. The big Swede headed home United’s winner with moments left. Is that the sound of United’s oil tanker turning round and getting back in the winner’s lane? Who knows. I still believe they could be the team to get closest to Chelsea.

Big Sam walked into the match against Middlesbrough guns ablazing.

In his sights were his very own players who, according to Allardyce, were not “doing as they were told!” Allardyce used the media to remind his players, and presumably himself, that he had never been relegated and if they did things his way they would be OK. Frustratingly, they must have listened to him on their “winter break” as Palace nicked a 1-0 win. The goal was scored by Patrick Van Aarnolt who, it is now becoming clear, was signed for his ability to score winning goals and not his ability to defend. Palace’s win dropped Leicester into the relegation

zone ahead of their Monday night match against Liverpool.

David Moyes, when asked how Sunderland would do against Everton, had replied “if we play like we did against Palace we will win, if we play like we did against Southampton we will lose.” What he got was something in the middle and they still lost. Jermain Defoe hit the bar late on and it was still reverberating a fine tune when Lukaku went up the other end and scored Everton’s second. Poor Moyes, he cannot catch a break. That trip to New York didn’t have the desired effect, and neither did all the redundancies.

Stop the actual press, as Burnley recovered from their FA Cup “giant killing” to pick up a point away from home, which you could believe was their first one ever judging by the song and dance made about it. Hull look like they might have enough about them to get out of trouble, which would still be my preferred outcome so we can see the reaction in the Sky Super Saturday studio.

It would be wise not to score early against West Bromwich Albion, it really upsets Tony. Mind you, it would be wise not to enter the field of play in a Premier League battle with Artur Boruc as your best choice to keep the ball out of the net. Bournemouth led WBA after a few minutes, but quickly found themselves 2-1 down and in continued free fall.

How on earth will Eddie get the Arsenal job if he takes Bournemouth down? The is no finer sight than a goalkeeper going

to punch a ball, then looking completely lost as he tries to work out where it has gone, only to realise it has gone into his own net. That kind of form will not help the Cherries.

Watford and West Ham played out a 1-1 that was devoid of any real entertainment or drama. Even Slaven Bilic seemed to keep his temper, which was rather dull. West Ham are still paying for their reliance on Carroll being fit every once in awhile and, well, he wasn’t on Saturday.

Tottenham could not make it more clear that they are going to have a weird season next season. Throwing it away in Europe once again against Gent at Wembley, they took Stoke to the cleaners in the first half on Sunday at White Hart Lane. The problem for Spurs is all their home games will be at Wembley next season. Get out now Poch, Barcelona will take you. Harry Kane got another load of goals, three if you are counting, and Dele Alli went someway to making amends for his midweek red card with the fourth.

Bruno Indi Martins is still spinning somewhere in North London after Kane’s touch for the 4th.

Premier League wise, Bournemouth and Leicester are heading towards the trap door whilst everyone other than Sunderland are scrambling to get out.

What money on the Champions, Eddie and Moyes to be playing Championship football next season? Wayne Shaw is putting his pies on it.

Golf Society Alenda Golf, is it easy to find? Well Bill Gillies didn’t think so. He duly followed the “sat nav” in his English car and as we all know that even Spanish “sat navs” have problems when trying to find golf courses and it didn’t appear to him that he may be on the wrong road until he saw the signs for “Benidorm” by the time he had realised and turned round he arrived just in time to see our last 4 ball tee off! Now we do try to encourage our members to arrive 45 mins BEFORE their tee time just in case incidents like this happen.

Upon arrival for our very convenient tee time of 10am we were greeted by a slightly warmer day with almost no wind, perfect for the last round of our Annual Medal Stableford. But we all know that around that 1pm it begins to blow and that happened just as we began the back nine which you may know is the highest part of the course and also the tightest. The scores confirmed this, most players had good front nines but there were many ugly 10’s 12’s and even a 13 on some of the more difficult holes on the back nine. As a committee we do our very best to be well organised so that our members can just turn up pay their dues, collect their card READ the local rules for the

day where they would also find on what par 3 the N.T.P. was for their category before they go to play. Their score card also has this information on it along with the format of the competition. It was to some surprise to a handful of members when handing in their cards only to be told that they had been disqualified for not completing every hole. Oh! Wasn’t it a Stableford? Added to that some members fail to look at the N.T.P. marker on the green where it states the category for that pa r3 although they do manage write their names on it even when it is NOT for them!

Results: N.T.P. Hole 3 B. Watson, hole 5 Pat O’Dowd but the wrong category, hole 13 J. Eyre, hole 16 J. Hillier. Per Arne Skarnes won the €32 contained in the “’s” pot.

Your week in Sport ABBEY ANGLING The 8th round match of the Abbey Angling Cup was again fished at the El Bosquet Complex on the 21st February, as cancelled from the Embalsa de Pedrera due to high winds and the forecast of rain.

Ian Brown continues his run of good luck with another win drawn on the long channel, with most of his fish taken on the method feeder and pellet, with Alan Smith taking the 2nd spot.

It looks quite barren here on the long channel and the back channel no 1 after the recent bank clearing with not a lot of cover, hopefully this will soon grow up.

1st Ian Brown with 9.720kgs fishing the method feeder and using pellet 2nd Alan Smith with 8.600kgs fishing the pole using maggot and bread 3rd Dave Hoare with 6.520kgs fishing

the pole using bread There are still some vacancies available for membership at the club All details are available on our new website abbeyangling.es or from me on 965328368 RODS & REELS This week’s 8th round of the Winter Series was fished at The El Bosquet Complex on the 22nd February.

One good thing about today was the wind had eased off a great deal from yesterday; weights are on par for both days, with the cold winds keeping the fish off the feed.

It was the bottom end of the back channel 2 which produced the winning weight for Bill Cannon with over 11kgs.

This length will be a good stretch when the pegs and roads are completed.

1st Bill Cannon with 11.720kgs fishing the pole using pellet 2nd Neil McBirnie with 8.640kgs fishing the pole using pellet 3rd Dave Hoare with 7.760kgs fishing the Pole using bread When the bank where cleared there was a vast amount of beer, coke and sweet corn tins and general rubbish just left in the bushes. The Angler that today fished peg 7 left half a bottle of coke just abandoned.

Match men will not be weighed in, if they leave litter at their pegs, and why should the match men have to clear up rubbish left by dirty and irresponsible pleasure anglers. Are you one of these!!!

Think of the environment.

There are still some vacancies at the Club and if anyone is interested in joining please contact Derek Swann on 966729293 or 617283503 TIGHT LINES Terry Screen

La Siesta Bowls Club The week began with no fixture for the Pioneers and so the only match involved the Apollos who had a home match, in very windy weather, against Emerald Isle Neptunes. Despite convincing wins for Barbara and Jack Cooper with Vic Mahomet 32-6 and Irene Laverick with Pat and Brian Harman 20-12 the only other point came from Ann and Robert Heath who rescued a draw 18-18 with a final end getting four shots. The overall shots being 97-110.The points 9 to the Isle 5 to La Siesta.

Mixed fortunes in The Fed 4’s with the Hoopoes gaining a 6-2 home win against Montemar whilst the Parakeets lost away at Horadada by the same scoreline. Wins for the Hoopoes came from Rod Edgerton,Bill Jordan with Florence and Mike Edwards 23-7 and by Val Dalton,Norman Adcroft Jack Cooper and George Richardson 18-14 whilst Ann and Robert Heath with Tony Dalton and Vic Mahomet lost by a single shot. The winning rink for the Parakeets,in tricky conditions, at Horadada came from Joy and Brian Gardiner with Tony Campbell and Jean Cooper 17-14.

The Winter League saw the visit of

Vistabella to our home and they gained revenge from the reverse fixture with a 10-2 win. Our winning rink was Joy Gardiner,Trish Reilly with Bill and Sue Jordan who won 25-15.Bad luck for the rink of Ann Edgerton, Jack Cooper,Pat Reilly and Mike Edwards who lost by a single shot in a match that was in doubt until the skips delivered their last bowl.

The Blues travelled to La Marina to play the Dolphins and suffered a narrow 8-6 reverse the shots score being a close 8593. Winning rinks for La Siesta were Ann and Robert Heath with Pat Harman 239,Joy Gardiner,John Taylor and Jean Cooper 16-8 and Barbara Cooper, Vic Mahomet and Mike Edwards 14-12.

Not such good news for the Golds who lost their away match at Emerald Isle Outlaws without recording any winning rinks. On the day they faced some excellent bowling by their opponents.

Finally, some good news to report one of our stalwart members Roy Millward is at last out of hospital and on his way to recovery, although not yet available to receive visitors. We look forward to seeing both him and Sheila back on the rink as soon as possible. By Rod Edgerton

It was a bad week for badminton, and I am sure all you badminton fans are still recovering from the news. One day you go to bed with €5.9m a year’s worth of funding, the next day you wake up and it is zero. UK Sport are clearly not fans of the game, as they have decided not to fund it for the Tokyo 2020 games. It’s not just badminton though, oh no. UK Sport also rejected archery, goal ball, fencing, table tennis, weightlifting and wheelchair rugby. I know what you are all thinking. What on earth is goal ball?

UK Sport have been all over it this week. They accused British Cycling of “a complete lack of transparency” following BC’s summary of a report into their procedures that was, shall we say, not an accurate reflection of what the report actually said. It was worth a go though, surely? I mean, who really reads the entire 600 pages of these commissioned reports anyway? If you are about to be outed as cheats, you may as well go the whole hog and provide a summary that says you are not, just on the off chance that is all that gets read. The fact that British Cycling took four years to hand over the report that was finished in 2012 also paints them in the colour of innocence. I’m even starting to doubt whether Sir Bradley’s sideburns are real.

Mo Farah has felt the need to deny more doping claims following further allegations made against his coach, Salazar. It’s almost like they are picking on Farah, isn’t it. Everyone knows he’s nothing like Lance Armstrong, whatsoever.

following the belated demise of Bernie Ecclestone.

Have you heard the one about the skier from Venezuela? No, I am serious.

Amir Khan and Manny Pacquiao are going to get it on in the ring sometime in April

Even cricketers get to be sporting millionaires nowadays. Tymal Mills gets to add a few 000’s to his bank balance by being involved for a mere 24 balls a match out in India when the IPL recommences. The left-arm fast bowler with the knackered back has been signed, despite the fact he cannot bat and is not that good in the field. He does, however, bang it down at 95 miles an hour and people like that.

Mercedes have announced they are re-signing the superbly named Toto Wolff for the next F1 season. Niki Lauda also confirmed that Mercedes plan to be involved in the new era of F1

Nordic World Championships, skis (or what he believed to be skis) under his arm ready to qualify. Adrian was bothered that he had only ever tried it on wheels and had never seen snow in the flesh. His critics were aplenty and suggested he was there as a political statement. Yeah, that’s the way to grab the political headlines in the current climate. Go skiing.

Back to the serious matter of rugby.

The Six Nations are still in full swing and you just know I have my finger on the pulse. Ireland beat France, Scotland beat Wales and England beat Italy. All that means England are top of the table with two more to play. Analysis of the highest order, I am sure you will agree. Italy did run England quite close though, leading at half time. Will that do? Good.

The Plaza Golf Society Las Ramblas Great day and fantastic time at Lo Romero, a very popular course from our members. We had a great turnout and with the rollover from last week the 2s pot was looking very healthy at 168€.
