BarcelonaTerrorAttack T

he Spain has been shaken to its core after two terror attacks and an explosion over three days, in what authorities are treating as a trio of linked incidents. Police have said the perpetrators of the attacks in Barcelona and Cambrils originally planned to use explosive devices, but their plans were foiled after bomb-making materials accidentally blew up a house believed to be the suspects’ base - in Alcanar. On Wednesday Just after 11pm the fire brigade was alerted to an explosion in a house in Alcanar, a city about 100 miles southwest of Barcelona. One person was killed and seven others were injured. One of the injured was taken into custody on Friday. Police now believe the cause of the blast came from the premature detonation of explosive devices, which the suspects had intended to use in a attacks. On Thursday a white van ploughed into pedestrians at around 5pm on Las Ramblas,

the city’s busiest tourist promenade. At least 13 people were killed and more than 120 injured in the country’s deadliest attack since the 2004 Madrid bombings. The driver of the van fled on foot and is believed to be still at large. People from at least 34 countries are among the injured, according to officials. A Belgian, two Italians and an American are among the dead. A second van, believed to be linked to the Barcelona van, was found in Vic, a town 43 miles from Barcelona, Reuters reported. A driver ran over two police officers at a security checkpoint, causing them minor injuries. It was unclear whether this was terrorism-related. In the early hours of Friday morning, five armed attackers drove a car through a crowd of people in the town of Cambrils, 75 miles southwest of Barcelona. One woman was killed and six others injured, including one police officer. - Police engaged in a shootout with the attackers, and all five were shot dead, four of them by one officer.

The attackers were wearing fake suicide belts, had carried an axe and knives in the car, and had wounded a person in the face with a knife before being shot.

Latest developments Over the weekend Catalan investigators raided the house of an imam in the town of Ripoll they believe may have overseen the cell. Police are trying to piece together how a cell composed of multiple sets of brothers from the same sleepy Pyreenes town came to carry out the devastating attacks, amid reports they planned to blow up the Sagrada Familia. The home of the imam, named as Abdelbaki Es Satty, was raided by officers reportedly seeking - among other evidence - DNA samples which might link him to the house in Alcanar believed to be where the attack was prepared. Investigators believe the imam, who apparently left Ripoll around a month ago, might be one of two dead bodies

discovered in the Alcanar house. Five members died at the hands of police in the attack on Cambrils: Moussa Oukabir, 17, Mohammed Hychami, 23 and Said Aallaa, 19, all believed to be of Moroccan origin, have been officially identified as among the attackers killed. The other two have been named by Spanish press as Omar Hychami, Mohammed’s brother, and Houssaine Aouyaaquoub, who is presumed to be a family member of Younes Aouyaaquoub, the suspected driver of the Ramblas van who remains on the run. Another four have been detained, including Driss Oukabir, Moussa’s 23-yearold brother, whose identification was found in the van that attacked Barcelona’s Ramblas but who claims it was stolen by his sibling. Almost all of the men lived in close proximity in Ripoll - Oukabir and Mohammed Hychami in the same building - while Allaa lived in the nearby town of Ribes de Freser.

BITE SIZE NEWS:

Airport strikes could hit Alicante

Fire in building in Torrevieja It was a busy night for the fire brigade in Torrevieja on the 14th August. One building was set alight and three cars burnt out. It looked as though some of the fires could be arson. The building was evacuated during Monday night when a fire started in one of the warehouses on the lower floor. People living close by were evacuated as a precaution and no one was injured. The fire started at around midnight on calle San Policarpo. The local police were also called out along with the Guardia Civil and the building was fenced off whilst the fire was extinguished. A further incident occurred in avenida Don Juan de Austria. In this area three vehicles had been set alight that were parked on the road. The first conclusion according to the police is that these fires were the result of arson.

Torrevieja asks for more police officers Torrevieja currently has 160 police officers. The mayor of Torrevieja, José Manuel Dolón, says that it needs at least 40 more. According to the criteria that sets the number of police for a town this is the number that should be allocated. The density of the town centre population as well as the number of urbanisations means that there should be at least 200 officers and not the 160 currently employed. There is a ceiling in place on the number of town council employees that Torrevieja can have. This is applied by the national government. Last year Dolón had made an Continued on page 5

Spain’s labour unions have called for 25 days of strikes among members of AENA, the Spanish airports authority, to begin on 15th September. The announcement comes as security staff at Barcelona’s El Prat airport continue their dispute over pay and conditions, while workers at two airports in northwestern Spain have threatened to stage partial stoppages. The country’s three main labour unions, the Workers’ Commissions, UGT, and USO earlier this week that they would call industrial action by today if AENA did not respond to its demands. AENA’s 8,200 employees are calling for pay rises of around 8 percent, as well as the hiring of around 700 people. The CCOO, USO and UGT say AENA’s ‘extraordinarily good’ financial results have not been passed onto staff who, with inflation and higher taxes over the past few years, have lost up to 8 percent of their spending power as their salaries have not moved. Additionally, the unions want to see AENA create a further 450 jobs and Enaire another 250, on top of those employees taken on to replace outgoing staff. The idea of the extra jobs is to ‘ensure adequate safety and security conditions’ in all airports in light of growing demand in the air travel sector. The Unions have filed notice of industrial action with the Commission for Interpretation, Surveillance, Conciliation and Arbitration (CIVCA), a body set up to mediate between employees and airport authorities and which comprises five AENA representatives and five union spokespersons. However, the UGT says it is

'confident' strike action will be avoided by successful negotiations ahead of the dates. The strikes will be joined by workers across the board – car park staff, firefighters, luggage-belt operators, electricians, retail and catering, security, IT and control tower maintenance. Anyone who works for the airport infrastructure governing body AENA or the airport management public-sector run Enaire will be called to strike. This would include Elche Alicante Airport. Last week’s move by the labour unions involves first presenting a request for arbitration. If no agreement has been reached within seven days, then labor unions will officially convene a strike with the Labour Ministry. This approach should leave room to reach a solution. Otherwise, 24-hour stoppages will take place on the following dates in September: 15, 17, 22, 24 and 29, with follow ups in October: 1, 6, 11, 15, 27, 30, and 31. There would be stoppages in November: 3 and 5, with further action in December: 1,4,5,7, 8, 10, 26, 27, 28, 29 and 30 inclusive, affecting Christmas travel. The strikes would affect all essential services for the operation of the affected airports. Civil Guard officers have taken over security at Barcelona airport since staff there launched indefinite strike action. Partial walkouts and flight delays in recent weeks have already disrupted holiday travel. Anyone planning to travel between September and New Year should keep a note of the dates and, if they are impossible to avoid, allow several extra hours for delays on the day of their flights.

BITE SIZE Sign up for NEWS: Torrevieja’s night run Continued from page 3 application putting forward the case that the lack of officers was making it difficult to carry out their functions appropriately and was reducing moral generally.

Salt, salt everywhere Following on from the visits to the salt works now it seems that the salt can also come to you. A pile of salt has been deposited outside the tourist office in Torrevieja on the Paseo Vista Alegre. The idea is that in this prominent position they are promoting one of the main symbols of the town. In the spring it is planned to continue with the next stage of the salt work visits, opening up the industry to those who want to find out more.

San Roque gets a face lift On Thursday 17th August the town hall began work on the San Roque neighbourhood with a view to repairing damage done by the last storms. There has been controversy over the area due to the failure of the company Acuamed to carry out some of the work to the area included in a building project proposal. Now the city council has taken over some of the work which involves pedestrianisation, a general tidy up and installing some wooden railings. It is expected that the work will last for two days.

Torrevieja takes part in bird fair Councillor Fanny Serrano will be representing Torrevieja at the annual ‘BirdFair’ event held in Rutland, England. She will be attending in order to promote the natural parks and lakes of La Mata and Torrevieja. Councillor Serrano will take along material produced for the 20th anniversary of the parks that includes information about the ‘paradise for birds’ that exists in this part of the city. The focus is specifically on the many species of birds that can be seen in the park, when they are most likely to be spotted, where and how. The council is keen to promote this kind of tourism which they consider to be more responsible and more likely to be considerate of the environment. The park is home to a large population of flamingos, the protected species of Audoin seagull, the black-necked grebe, the common shellduck, Kentish plover, blackwinged stilt and harrier, to name but a few.

Measures taken against terrorist attacks Torrevieja town hall has ordered the urgent placement of large bollards at key points of its paseos. The twelve bollards have been placed in situations where, in theory, vehicles could enter and be driven indiscriminately. Some of the bollards were put in position in the form of a V on Saturday 19th August at the entrance to the paseo Continued on page 6

On the 16th September at 9pm, Torrevieja’s first evening race will take place in the town. The ‘Legua Nocturna Puerto Torrevieja’ will set off from the Paseo Vistalegre (by the casino) and the route will be lit. Runners will have fluorescent wrist bands, not only so that they can be spotted during the race but also for entry to the post race zone. The race is 5 ½ metres in length and it costs €7 to sign up. One euro of this will go to Alimentos Solidarios which provide food for the homeless and those in need. The run has been organised by Torrevieja Port Athletics’ Club in conjunction with Torrevieja town hall. It’s open to any age • • • • • • • • • •

Winners of recycling announced The campaign ‘Take note, recycle glass’ or ‘Toma nota, recicla vidrio’ has been launched by the department of business and hospitality. Its focus is to provide an incentive during the summer for businesses to separate glass waste from other products. Altogether there are 240 businesses taking part, and during July the winner of the raffle was ‘La Rafaeleña’. In order to take part the different establishments were provided with recycling containers to assist the recycling operation. Additional recycling points have been added to those already in place. Those businesses that used them correctly were given the opportunity to participate in the raffle as an additional incentive. The prize consists of a Parador Pack. Paradores are the nationally run hotel chain which consists of high quality accommodation and can be found all around Spain. Winners will have two nights in a double room with breakfast included at the Parador of their choice. It’s not only the hotel sector itself that is being targeted but also individuals. Thirty gourmet prizes are on offer valued up to €100 for each one. In order to be eligible all

Silent support The Town Halls of Orihuela, Orihuela Costa, Torrevieja, Almoradí, Dolores, Rafal, Pilar de la Horadada and Rojales, among others, gave demonstrations of support and held three minutes of silence with their flags flown at half mast. Torrevieja Mayor José Manuel Dolón said the attacks had been“cowardly”, assured the town is with those who were affected and their families, and supported the security forces who are working to try and ensure

from 14 years upwards. Children between the ages of 14 and 18 must have authorisation from a parent to participate. You can take part either as an individual or as part of a team with the first four from any one team being counted towards the team total. There is a category for the disabled who will begin their race after the other competitors and will take part adjacent to those on foot. There will be two lapse of 2.7 metres each. Participants can collect their vest number on Saturday 16th from 6pm but must bring identification to collect it. There are several different categories including:

you have to do is register on the web page www.tomanotareciclavidrio.es. and nominate your favourite establishment. The campaign is being organised by Ecovidrio. They consider that the summer is the ideal time in order to increase recycling. With more tourists and the subsequent increase in consumption by the hostelry service this is a good time to get the word out about the importance of recycling. According to the last data received in 2016, the town’s people of Torrevieja recycled a total of 2,434,340 kilos of glass which averaged at around 28.9kg per person. During the summer almost 30% of the glass packaging waste total for the year is recycled. The collaboration of the hospitality sector is essential as being responsible for about 50% of this. 2017 is the year of sustainable tourism. It is vital that the sector finds ways of limiting any negative impact it might have. Many of the best restaurants are already signed up to this commitment. Some Michelin star establishments in Spain such as Can Roca, Arzak and Sant Pau as well as the Paradores are leading the field. Suzanne O’Connell

At midday on Friday the Vega Baja fell silent to remember and express solidarity with the families and friends of those who were killed and injured in the Barcelona terror attacks on Las Ramblas and the seaside town of Cambrils. this sort of thing does not happen again”. He also announced new security measures that are being adopted in the municipality. He assured that security measures in Torrevieja“have been increased so that our residents and visitors can be relaxed and safe”. In this sense since yesterday the police presence has been increased on the promenades and busiest places and police vehicles have been stationed at strategic points of the Paseo

Juan Aparicio so that“those who have come to rest and spend a few days in peace can relax,” he said. He also announced the council will try to place emergency orders for sturdy outdoor furniture to install in different places around the area. To conclude he referred to the importance of all the security forces coordinating their intelligence work and information. Dolón repeated that this is “so people know they can enjoy the summer in Torrevieja”.

Children’s orphanage BITE SIZE NEWS: needs your help As children look towards the new school year with dread and parents with relief, spare a thought for those who might be turning up at school without the basic pencils and pens that others take for granted. Carmens Bar in El Chaparral are collecting stationery for the children at San José Obrero Orphanage who otherwise might struggle to find themselves equipped for the new school year. The orphanage in Orihuela currently

count on the help of any family so they are allocated some space in one of the flats to assist them in their transition to adult life. The aim of the centre is to ensure the future for the children, enabling them to settle in society and have the skills they need. Carmen’s Bar are raising money for starter packs for the children to take to school. The children need basic items such as pens, pencils, rulers, pencil cases and rubbers. If you would like to help you are

The orphanage is home to children from 6 to 18 years of age who have been abandoned by their families or who, for various reasons, do not have a family who can take care of them. The home is run by the church and they do their best to recreate a family atmosphere. They also have a day centre with 24 children where the children are looked after only during the day after which they return home. When they reach the age of 18 the young people still can’t

Julie and her team are delighted by the number of donations that have been made and are also raising money through holding raffles. They would like to thank everyone who has already donated towards this very good cause and asks that the donations keep on coming. With 70 children needing stocking up for the school year, every item is welcome. Suzanne O’Connel

Continued from page 5 maríetimo Juan Aparicio. It is expected that additional obstacles will be purchased to place around areas where many people congregate. This is not to say that there is any particular reason to think that Torrevieja could be the subject of an attack. The action is seen as a general precaution in the face of Spain’s current heightened terrorist risk.

Robber brandishing knife arrested On Saturday 19th August a 40 year old man, a resident of Torrevieja, was detained after causing panic by brandishing a knife in a public place. The man was seen and reported by passers-by acting threateningly in the Plaza de Oriente, in front of the new church. It is believed that the man has mental health problems. He was intercepted by a plainclothes policeman who suffered some minor cuts to his arms and hands during the arrest. According to the news source Información, the detained person had just committee two robberies in nearby properties. The first was empty as its owners were on holiday. Following this he entered the property next door where he found an elderly couple who he held at knife point. After this he went out into the street with the weapon in his hand. Once the incident was reported the local police and Guardia Civil were in attendance. The man is already known to the police for committing disturbances in public places. The authorities were quick to dispel the rumour, circulating on social media, that this was a terrorist attack. Suzanne O’Connell

OKTOBERFEST COMES TO ORIHUELA COSTA The Las Filipinas Association, in conjunction with Siesta Radio and El Capitan Restaurant, are organizing the first Oktoberfest party to be held in Orihuela Costa. The event is being held to celebrate the multi-national makeup of the coast and just like the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in March and St. George’s Day in April, aims to establish September as the official date for this well known German celebration.

There have been fatalities on our beaches this year that took place when the red flag was flying. The number of people who appear to ignore the coastguards’ warnings is surprising. Those who take no notice of the advice put themselves and the lifeguards at risk by their actions. Now, the town hall in Torrevieja has said that enough is enough and it’s time to clamp down on those who ignore the flags. On the 16th August the mayor, José Manuel Dolón, announced that he has instructed the local police to denounce bathers who continue to enter the water when the red flag is flying. ‘It’s for the safety of bathers and those who are there to protect them,’ said the mayor. ‘It’s not a new order but a reminder to the local police. People who take no notice of the

warning put themselves and the lifeguards at risk.’ It is likely that action will be taken against anyone who must be rescued at a time when the red flag is visible. Once they have been rescued and everyone’s safety is assured then the police will take details and will file the case. The legislation to do this is already there, it is just a case of tightening up its use and making sure that people realise the potential consequences of ignoring warning signs. The fines could be between €750 and €1,499. It seems surprising that people should need the threat of fines when the ultimate sanction is that of their own life and the people trying to save them.

Enjoy the park by moonlight Torrevieja is a city of surprises and none more so than the area of the natural lakes and park. On the 11th August the evening tours of the Parque Natural de Las Lagunas began. Many people took part in this visit around the lake, seeking to find out more about this beautiful area and natural resource. Of course, one of the benefits of touring the area at this time is to take advantage of the cooler temperature whilst also enjoying the sunset. Two guides led this first tour and informed them about the

‘The objective is that people discover the La Mata lake at dusk. It fills the senses and you find out more about it through smell, hearing and touch,’ explains Councillor Fanny Serrano, councillor for the environment. ‘You do need to be aware though that most of the tour takes place in the dark and without any lighting except what’s naturally provided.’ The evening walks are part of a more extensive programme that is organised by the Rutas Ecoturísticas which is planned to continue for the next four years.

During November, March, April and May there is a focus on ornithology with the young and old encouraged to observe and learn more about birdlife in the area. Each of the visits includes information both in Spanish and English, has a maximum of 50 participants and needs at least 20 people to take place. You can sign up for one of the trips on the web page

history of the area and the natural habitat that it represents for many forms of wildlife. Participants also heard about the agriculture that is traditional to this area and the different fauna that you can find there. If you were not able to take part in this tour then there will be many more opportunities to find out about this wonderful natural resource in Torrevieja. Similar tours will be held on the 28th August and the 4th and 8th of September. The tours take place starting at 8.30pm and last until around midnight.

there are 32 tours planned including 16 at night and 16 during the day. All of them are free with the purpose of raising awareness of the park and its benefits. The day visits are organised according to general information, aimed at families and those that have a particular theme to them. In October it’s planned to run days during which children are encouraged to take part and play games. These will take place every Saturday or Sunday starting in October (except for December and January). Themed talks include the ‘La Mata,

Accident black spots to be eliminated in San Miguel The Valencian Government will soon start work on the CV-95 road where it enters the east of San Miguel de Salinas. This is supposed to improve the flow of traffic as well as safety for motorists and pedestrians. The budget is €1.7 million and the project is due to take 18 months.

This area has two accident black spots, the intersection to enter San Miguel town centre and a split roundabout, which the project is designed to eliminate. Two roundabouts will be built to moderate the speed of traffic, one to access east San Miguel and urbanisation “Balcón

del Mediterráneo”, and the other to leave towards Torrevieja. Traffic will only be allowed to turn right onto or off the road. Also a central reservation will be built linking the roundabouts, which will have two bus stops with shelters, gardens and street lights.

Pound to plummet The Euro will be worth more than the British pound by the end of the first quarter of 2018, analysts from Morgan Stanley said in a client note circulated recently. In the bank’s latest FX Overview paper, it is argued that a combination of a stronger euro and a weakening pound will combine to make the euro more valuable than the pound for the first time in its history, and make it — in terms of pure value — the strongest major currency. The euro has been on the up this year as investors have taken note of the improving fortunes of the bloc’s economy. Countries like Spain and France have helped the bloc recover to its best levels

since the eurozone debt crisis. The forecasts suggest the euro will continue to strengthen and will move ‘beyond parity’ with the pound during the first three months of the year, hitting a peak of £1.02 before weakening a little as the year progresses. By the end of 2018, €1 will be worth £0.91. “We expect EUR to stay strong as pension funds and insurance companies (such as those in Switzerland and Japan) start to increase their net EUR currency exposure from historically low levels,” the team writes. “GBP is likely to weaken in its own right, driven by weak economic performance, low real yields and

increasing political risks. “Last year, the British economy maintained its growth momentum even after the Brexit vote, but the structure of growth has changed. The household sector has increased spending, primarily funded by unsecured lending, which is unsustainable. “A consolidation of the household balance sheet, coupled with negative real wage growth, may reduce consumption, which has been propping up growth so far. Brexit uncertainty may also weigh on business investment, which will weaken the already lackluster productivity growth outlook, suggesting real rates staying low.”

More than 6,000 party all night in Pilar Pilar de la Horadada reported that more than 6,000 young people joined in the ‘Luna de agosto’ Music Summer Festival. Beauty Brain, Kevin Edwards, Brain Breakers and Oscar Madrid were the headliners, accompanied by local DJs Kevin Carbonel y Javi Pérez, and the live vocalist Laly M. Councillor José Tomás Saura said once again they had put on the biggest and safest festival. He noted there had been a

significant reduction in cases of alcohol poisoning and fights thanks to the work of the Local Police and even people who were not on duty at the event. There was a big security and emergency services operation at the venue made up of Local Police, Guardia Civil, Valencian Government Police, Civil Protection, two ambulances, a fixed medical point and 10 private security guards.

Also the Town Hall’s Community Addictive Behaviour Prevention Unit (UPCCA) handed out different coloured wristbands to people aged over and under 18 to prevent those who were too young from being served alcohol. Councillor Arantxa Martínez said the most important thing was that all the young people who came to the definitive summer party in Pilar were able to have fun and be safe.

WEEKLY EURO UPDATE It has been a good week for the Eurozone. The annualised rate of growth stands at 2.2%, higher than the predicted 2.1% and quarterly growth stands at 0.6%. The euro saw a slight dip against the pound and the dollar towards the end of the week after the European Central Bank (ECB) confirmed that there would be no new policy announced next week

at the Jackson Hole symposium. There was an attempt to talk the euro down from its recent high by the ECB. Policy may change at the next announcement, due at the next ECB meeting on 7th September, if the markets overreact to the recovery of the Eurozone. The organisation is still working through economic forecasts ahead of the next announcement.

British merchant ship adrift off Gran Canaria shores A cargo ship loaded with ammonium nitrate is floating adrift off the coast of Gran Canaria with no crew, coastguard watchers report. The MV Cheshire, which has a British insignia, was abandoned en masse yesterday (Monday) when smoke began billowing out of one of its containers and a sharp rise in its temperature was detected, leading the 24 crew members to fear an imminent explosion. Since then, the 190-metre, 56.6tonne fertiliser-carrying ship, which belongs to the marine transport company Bibby Line Limited, has been

floating around at about 60 to 70 miles off the coast of ArguineguĂ­n, a popular holidaymaker and expat bolthole. Its 40 mega-tonnes of fertiliser were being shipped from Norway to Thailand, and a scheduled refuelling stop had been planned for last weekend. A specialist ship rescue company, Resolve Marine, has been called in to try to cool down the cargo and then to make an informed decision as to what to do next. As yet, Bibby Line Ltd is not clear of the risks that may be involved in the craft continuing on its journey.

Citrus trees are great in the garden. They look fabulous, have beautiful sweet smelling flowers, and provide wonderful fruit. And the good news is there are citrus for even the smallest garden or terrace. Citrus trees are from the Rutaceae family and are common in gardens all over Spain. They form small, compact evergreen trees, are usually slow growing and have a shallow root system. The best thing about citrus is that they are fairly easy to grow and need little pruning. All varieties ripen slowly and fruit can be stored on the tree to be harvested over months. Remember that citrus love a hot sunny spot and plenty of water. If you are planting them in a pot, use good quality potting mix and feed regularly. Watch for pests and diseases because they can be prone to sucking insects and citrus leaf miner. But aside from these problems, they make the perfect tree for a small garden, terrace or balcony.

Water:

Planting:

Prune citrus trees occasionally. They do not require heavy or regular pruning. Also remove any “suckers”, or shoots growing from the root stock and any “wild” shoots growing beyond the general shape of the tree. These will often be long, straight, quick-growing branches that do not follow the overall form or shape of the tree. Moderately thin the foliage if it grows excessively dense, to promote air circulation and availability of light. Generally, train citrus trees as shrubs or hedges. If you would like to remove a few lower branches to give it more of a tree shape, go ahead, but do not overdo it. Marc Vijverberg

Dig a large hole, remove the tree from its pot and remove any burlap around the roots. Place the tree on a mound of soil. Add or remove soil underneath to adjust the height so that the crown (the transition from trunk to roots) is slightly above it. This will allow for some settling and ensure water drains away from the trunk. Fill in the remaining hole with a mixture of compost or potting soil and the soil from your garden. Citrus trees like a rich well-draining soil. Do not let the pot sit directly in a saucer or puddle of water.

For sweet juicy fruit citrus trees need sufficient water in the dry season. Water them thoroughly 2-3 times a week. If in doubt if your tree is getting enough water, use common sense and feel the leaves. If they feel cool and thick, the tree is fine, but if they feel dry and leathery, the tree probably needs a drink.

Fertilizer: Fertilize the tree with an appropriate fertilizer. Fertilizers are available in special citrus or citrusand-avocado formulations. Apply them according to package instructions, typically three to four times a year for slow-release types. If your citrus tree has yellow leaves, with darker, green veins, this indicates an iron deficiency commonly known as chlorosis. It is particularly common in alkaline soils. Treat this with iron chelates (Quelatos de hierro). Mix and apply it according to the packet instructions, as it can either be sprayed on as a foliage feed or watered into the soil around the tree’s root zone. In warm weather you should see a difference in less than a week.

WELCOME TO TORREMOLINOS with Vivalia Travel Torremolinos is a municipality on the Costa del Sol of the Mediterranean, immediately to the west of the city of Málaga, in the province of Málaga in the autonomous community of Andalusia in southern Spain.

In 2013 it had 69,389 inhabitants, making it the sixth largest city in the province. The township has an area of 20 km² and a population density of 3,153.85 inhabitants/km², which is multiplied during the summer months. It is particularly popular with British, Irish and Scandinavian tourists and has a large British expatriate population. Areas of the town are spotted with older high-rise residential buildings and hotels but height limits on new developments and a significant number of original old town properties, have kept the town centre much more open than other popular resorts such as Benidorm and Fuengirola. The beach which extends for nearly 8 kilometres, has cycle and skating lanes alongside the fully illuminated promenade and features many chiringuitos and beach bars. The Eastern end of the beach known as Los Alamos has live dance music events throughout the Summer. The easternmost parts of the beach have kite surfing and windsurfing except under the flight path of the airport. There are two separate beach lifts, a wheelchair accessible footpath and steps from the town centre to the beach. Though there are many parking spaces on the beach road, it is almost impossible to park in the Summer months. The town centre does have many underground car parks however. History Archaeological finds including human bones, tools, and pottery prove that the Torremolinos area was settled as early as the Neolithic Age. Some remnants are neanderthalians and dated 150,000 years old by radiocarbon dating. According to the Egyptian Greek geographer Ptolemy, the Phoenicians had founded here a colony named Saduce, but the Romans are the most likely to have founded the current town, as shown by findings of edifices and a necropolis (from whose size it has been deduced that the settlement had around 2,000 inhabitants). They also built the road joining Cadiz with Málaga, passing through Torremolinos. With the Moorish conquest of Spain, were introduced the mills from which the town takes its name (meaning “Tower of the Mills”). However, at the time the population was reduced; the tower was built by the Nasrid rulers of Granada starting from 1300. After the fall of Granada, the town remained subject to North African pirate attacks which lasted from the 18th century; during the War of Spanish Succession, the town was attacked by an Anglo-Dutch flotilla under the British admiral George Rooke and almost entirely destroyed. The mills and the city were rebuilt in the early 20th century,

but the mill industry started to decline in the 1920s. It was largely replaced by an increasing tourist interest from 1928, particularly British visitors. Hotel Pez Espada opened in 1960. The first gay bar in Spain, Toni’s Bar, was founded in Torremolinos in 1962. Pre-Roman According to Ptolemy, Phoenicians built the city of Saduce next to Torremolinos. The Romans constructed a road to connect Gades (Cádiz) with Malaca (Málaga). In the 1990s a Roman necropolis was discovered with 23 graves at the “San Luis build” at Cantabria’s square, which confirm the existence of village with 2,000 years old. Middle Ages Around 1300, the Muslim dynasty of the “Nazríes”, which governed Málaga between the 13th and 15th centuries, built the defensive tower that can be seen at the end of San Miguel Street. The tower is 12 metres (39’37 ft.) tall and was built with earth. It is composed of two floors and watch windows to the sea and a terrace. Before French revolution After the Christian conquered the kingdom of Granada, Torremolinos was attacked by pirates until the 18th century. During the War of Spanish succession, an Anglo-Dutch fleet, commanded by the British Admiral George Rooke, looted and burned the houses and mills and destroyed all of Torremolinos. A census of 1,769 shows a population of 106 people. Modern age During the first half of the 19th century the town was rebuilt and by 1849 there were 14 mills, a fuller mill Kraft paper and 785 inhabitants. With the demise of the mill, Torremolinos became a small fishing village until the end of the 1950s when it became one of the first tourist centre in Costa del Sol. In the 1950s many celebrities visited Torremolinos such as Grace Kelly, Ava Gardner, Marlon Brando, Orson Welles and Frank Sinatra. In 1959 Pez Espada hotel was opened, the first luxury hotel along the coast. In the following years, new hotels, nightclubs and others tourist establishments changed the face of the town and its beaches. By the year 1965, Torremolinos had become consolidated as a major tourist destination.

He wants to go back

Unconditional Love

My partner and I have lived in Spain for several years now. We settled well, got jobs and learned the language. One of my partner’s old work colleagues got in touch recently and told him of a job at his old place of employment. He had an interview online and has been offered the job. I thought we were all happy here. He wants to take the job because it pays really well and I want to stay in Spain. I wanted us to start a family soon, and he didn’t want children, so I wonder how much of his decision to leave is based on that.

My husband has had numerous affairs during our marriage, that are still continuing. He says he will not give up his lifestyle and says I should love him unconditionally. I do love him, but he makes no secret about his affairs and says he is being upfront and honest, then I shouldn’t have a problem with it. He says I am the one he married, and he always comes back home to me, so can’t see why I get upset.

It seems your partner wasn’t as happy as you are to stay in Spain. Compromising over this is going to be difficult and will test your relationship because if he returns home and you stay here, your relationship will almost certainly suffer. If he is serious about the move I would say there might be deeper reasons for his wanting to leave. I can only suggest that you have a serious talk to him about how he sees your future together.

There is only one kind of unconditional love as far as many people are concerned, and that is a parent’s love for their children. Any other kind of love I believe IS conditional. When two people get married they pledge to be faithful to one another. Your husband, although upfront about his affairs, broke his marriage vows almost immediately. Asking you to love him unconditionally is rather convenient for him to continue having his cake and eating it. If you cannot live this way, you’ll need to give the future serious thought.

The worst home buying advice people actually believe Rebecca Serwotka

You don’t need to use a real estate agent Why you might hear this: Saving money on agents’ commission, when you can do a deal direct. Easy right? Wrong! Why it’s bad advice: In any market, the best way to save money is by using a qualified Real Estate Agent, as they’re the ones that can guide you through the complete buying process, pointing out any potential problems that could cost you big time down the road. They will know how to negotiate the best deal for you, and be able to point you in the right direction long after you’ve bought. Priceless!

If you’re looking to buy a house in Spain, and told all of your family and friends your exciting news, you’re bound to have at least one of them say “let me give you some advice.” After all, they’ve been there, done that or they’re “experts” in the Real Estate Market because they’ve watched countless episodes of A Place In The Sun. We all know they’re only trying to be helpful, but just because people have an opinion, doesn’t make them well informed experts. So when it comes to buying a house, that helpful advice can easily send you down the wrong path. Here are a few of the worst home-buying advice, people have heard:

Make a cheeky offer Why you might hear this: That’s what they do on T.V! Why it’s bad advice: Making an extremely low offer can start negotiations off on the wrong foot with the seller. You want the best deal, but you don’t want to halt negotiations before they even get going. Be reasonable with your offer. Serious buyers and sellers know what homes are worth. Your Real Estate Agent will be able to guide you on making the best offer.

Wait, don’t buy yet, house prices are going down Why you might hear this: The housing bubble is going to burst and you’d be better off waiting for prices to go down. Why it’s bad advice: Unfortunately for any Real Estate Investor, no-one can predict exactly how the market is going to react to any world event. No-one can be spot on when it comes to predicting the future! So when it comes to finding that ideal home, why wait? The time isn’t someday soon ... it’s right now! What your family and friends never tell you is that prices will go up and to buy now before you miss the boat. Live for today, you don’t know what tomorrow’s going to bring!

NEVER PAY FULL PRICE Why you might hear this: Because only losers pay full price, right? Wrong! Why it’s bad advice: Full price doesn’t always mean overpriced! However if that perfect home seems a little more than the going rate and if it has everything you’ve been looking for, then paying full price may be the only way to secure it. Everyone has an opinion on the property market, so thank your family and friends for their heartfelt input however, you can handle it from here with a professional Real Estate Agent on your side.

Charity calendar launched Twelve stunning photographs of horses, ponies and donkeys rescued from abuse and neglect feature in a new 2018 calendar recently launched by Spain’s Easy Horse Care Rescue Centre. The non-profit Rojales-based rescue centre hopes the calendar sales will help raise funds to buy a much-needed second-hand mini digger. The centre’s previous digger, an aging model donated second-hand almost a decade ago, finally broke down irreparably last month. Since then, Easy Horse Care co-founder Rod Weeding, a 68-year-old British expat, has been digging knee-deep footings for new boundary fencing by hand. “This is the most important piece of equipment at our centre, used daily for everything from moving large hay bales and piling up manure, to digging holes for construction projects and repairing our stables,” co-founder Sue Weeding said. “We desperately need a replacement.” The centre hopes to raise €12,000 to buy a second-hand replacement – and was astounded to receive a major donation from Elche’s Fundación Juan Perán – Pikolinos to kick-start the mini digger fundraising campaign. “We had the opportunity to go to the rescue centre and meet the animals that live there and the truth is that the Weedings work extremely hard, have sacrificed a lot and deal with very high expenses,” said Isabel Marco Soler, a spokeswoman for the foundation. “We believe the hard work done by the Weedings is commendable, especially considering they came to Spain to enjoy retirement and now care for more than 100 horses. Many animals arrive with serious health problems, yet the Weedings never skimp on expenses when it comes to healing them so they can lead a better life.” Fundación Juan Perán – Pikolinos has also partsponsored printing of Easy Horse Care’s new calendar, which features photos of six horses, three donkeys and three ponies kindly taken and donated by photographer Elaine Warnock.

Said Elaine: “The 2018 calendar is a great way of raising awareness of how these animals have been previously treated and the photos are a testament to how they have been cared for and how beautiful they look today.” The limited-edition calendar was designed by volunteer Koren Helbig, meaning almost every cent raised from sales goes straight to the mini digger fund. The calendar costs just €15 and can be purchased at Easy Horse Care’s monthly open day or online - for delivery or pick-up from the centre’s charity stores visit: easyhorsecare.net/shops/online-shop/calendars/ 2018-rescued-equine-calendar/. Donations can also be made directly to the mini digger fundraising campaign at: easyhorsecare.net/ donate/mini-digger. Easy Horse Care Rescue Centre relies entirely on donations to fund its important animal welfare work. Good quality furniture donations are currently sought for the centre’s charity stores, which are low on stock. Anyone interested in making a donation or volunteering can call Sue on 652 021 980. Located just outside Rojales at Partido Lo Garriga, 59, the Easy Horse Care Rescue Centre opens to the public on the first Sunday of every month between 1pm and 4pm.

Channel 5 - 4.15pm Jesse Stone: Thin Ice

Police Chief Jesse Stone has just been involved in a highly-publicised shoot-out that left his friend, State Homicide Commander Healy, seriously wounded. As a result, the Boston Police Department’s Internal Affairs division launches an investigation against Chief Stone, causing the dedicated lawman to be away from Paradise for extended periods of time and drawing unwanted attention from the Town Council. When Chief Stone fires the Paradise Police Department’s most enthusiastic ticketwriter, the city’s main source of revenue is seriously hit. His status with the Town Council already faltering, the chief puts his own job in serious jeopardy by agreeing to help a celebrated out-of-towner search for her missing child.

THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS: TOKYO DRIFT 9.00pm - ITV2

A frustrated teen from a broken home, Sean Boswell is an outsider looking to make a name for himself on the illegal street racing circuit. When Sean is busted by the police for his high-speed exploits and given the option of either spending time behind bars or moving overseas to live with his no-nonsense, military man father who’s currently stationed in Tokyo, the young rebel packs his bags and sets his sights on Nippon. Though at first reluctant to adapt to the unfamiliar customs and foreign code of honor of his new home, Sean soon strikes up a friendship with American speed freak Twinkie, a likeminded race fan who schools the inexperienced newcomer in the pulse-pounding world of drift-racing. Inadvertently challenging local champion and yakuza associate D.K. his first time on the road, Sean is subsequently forced to work under expatriate Han to pay off his debt after failing to cross the finish line first.

Dead dolphin calf could be fault of bathers A dolphin calf stranded on a beach in Mojácar, Almeria, died after holiday-makers manhandled it and took photos. The infant mammal was still nursing and was unable to withstand the trauma of being handled by dozens of people, according to Equinac, an NGO for beached sea turtles and cetaceans in the area. The young female had become stranded on a crowded stretch of sand, attracting a mass of fatal attention. “The lifeguard was unable to cope as he watched hundreds of people descend on the animal,” said Equinac’s post on Facebook. “One guy was

eventually able to get through the crowd and reach the creature, but by then it was too late. We might not have been able to save her, but we would have tried.” Equinac criticized the beachgoers, saying they were “obsessed with touching and photographing” an animal that is highly vulnerable to stress. “It seems a lot of people are incapable of empathizing with a creature that has found itself alone and frightened, is dying from hunger and missing hits mother. Selfishly, the only thing they want to do is touch it and take photos, despite the animal’s suffering.”

F

irstly I would like to welcome the new venues to the gig guide who have taken advantage of the free entry for their entertainment on this page. It’s not often that a no strings attached free offer comes along like this. So take advantage of it this summer and be seen. This week you need to make a supreme effort to see the fabulous Diana Ross Tribute show before she jets back to the UK. Celena Deans will be “Coming Out” on Tuesday at La Bodegueta in Lo Crispin. On Thursday 24th she will be starting a “Chain Reaction” in La Marina’s Consum Square where the J’s, Bianco’s and Cafeina mini fiesta is taking place. Friday finds Miss Ross at Lo Monte Camping where she will be getting “Endless Love” from the afternoon audience. If you are in Playa Flamenca on Saturday, pop into Pablo’s International for a pint, a bit to eat and a boogie with Celena and an evening of motown and soul dance music too. Saturday is a classy night over at The Club in Quesada. Much loved vocalist Paul Michael will be donning the fat suit once more as he transforms into Lucianno Pavarotti. If you haven’t seen this show, let me tell you that audiences have been moved to tears by the clarity and power of his voice. His “Nessun Dorma” will bring out goosebumps guaranteed. Paul will also be covering songs by other artist such are Andrea Bocelli. He also appears as himself with plenty of music to dance the night away to. I wouldn’t normally mention events that are not music based. But I am going to do so in this case. Please get over to San Fulgencio for the football match on Sunday. The game is to help Tasha Lynch, a local young lady who desperately needs treatment for the Mitochondrial disease that has ravaged her young body. This lady who is a local resident is a real fighter but treatment in the USA is expensive. Kick off is at 12.30 this Sunday.

As always, if you would like your events listed, please email me full plenty of time in details to:letsrockshowslive@gmail.com. Venues needing acts can find me all over Facebook (bit of an addict ha, ha) or go to my website www.lrshows.com or call the hotline on 634 332 354

Spain sends help to battle Portugal's wildfires Spanish firefighters and water-dumping aircraft have bolstered Portuguese efforts to gain control of forest fires raging in the centre of the country. Three planes, 27 fire engines and 120 Spanish firefighters have been helping to battle the blazes. The heatwave gripping the centre of the country and the consequent dryness helped provoke the fires in the Santarem, Coimbra and Castelo Branco regions of

central Portugal. In all, 1,300 firefighters are fighting the blaze using some 400 fire engines and around 30 firefighting aircraft. As well as the Spanish help, Morocco sent Portugal one of its firefighting planes. Spain's assistance came as part of the European Union's civil protection system that provides for mutual aid in emergency situations, said Christos Stylianides, the EU commissioner for civil protection.

Proper Diagnosis of diseases is the key to healthcare: The MedB Full Body Scan Diagnosis is the medical science and art of discovering the cause of a disease. Without knowing the root of a disease, it is more or less impossible to treat the disease. At its inception over a hundred years ago, modern medicine relied on asking questions around the symptoms of a disease to determine the cause. And from answers received, these doctors from the past would try to ascertain the problem. Technology has moved things on since then. Today the most modern diagnostic technology carries out a full body scan to determine not just the actual diseases present but most importantly their causes. Sadly, doctors in public hospitals continue to rely on the crude and inexact method of prescribing medications based on the patient's presenting symptoms. This ‘guess-work’ medical practice is not only old fashioned and inaccurate, it is also dangerous. Unfortunately, many people have come to accept this pitiful approach to healthcare as the real deal, mainly because they have no idea that there is a better and meaningful approach to healthcare. Today, the most advanced diagnostic scans are completely noninvasive and examine the entire body not only to determine the likely diseases occurring,

Magic Threads at Mejorate The tensioning threads, also known as magic threads or tensile threads, are threads of 100% biocompatible material that achieve a lifting effect without surgery, a minimally invasive technique that can be performed on both the face and the body. The placement of the threads must be done by an aesthetic physician, and can be done in a medical consultation, without the need for an

operating room. Depending on the area can be placed from 6 threads to 40. Usually a local anesthetic is used to place them and the area may look something inflamed and reddened for 1 or 2 days after treatment. Advantage • Treatment rejuvenates the skin from within • It allows to reaffirm the skin of the

face and the neck • Can be applied to lift glutes, eyebrows, cheeks, forearms, etc. • It is resorbable and safe • The results are natural and can last up to two years • The results are natural and can last up to two years Expected results and risks The results are immediate. Being resorbable, they do not usually have side effects. Even so, small bruises may appear which will disappear on their own after a few days. The treatment The tensioning threads are inserted in the dermis one by one, with the aid of a guide needle, in one direction and in the opposite direction, creating a kind of mesh that holds and stretches the skin. Around them will stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. Care after treatment The doctor will advise not to wash your face until after 12 hours. The patient also can not exercise and should avoid sun exposure. To calm the slight discomfort after treatment and minimize swelling, the specialist will recommend the application of cold compresses in the treated area for 1 or 2 days. Contraindications Tension threads are not recommended in pregnant or breastfeeding women, as well as in people with skin problems. It will be the specialist who best values the indication of this treatment according to each patient

but also the causes of these diseases. The most advanced of such technologies is called Sensitiv Imago. Sensitiv Imago

examines all organs and systems to ascertain the rate of inflammation and degeneration of organs as well as how well the body systems are adapting to diseases. The scan also carries out a

detailed microbiology and toxicology analysis for viruses, bacteria, fungi, parasites and toxins which are the underlying causes of diseases. Another key feature of the scan is that it carries out a chemical, food and electromagnetic energy sensitivity tests to measure the influence of a person’s environment and lifestyle on their health. The detailed report from the scan will also include the possible diseases present and their complications. MedB Diagnostic clinic in Torrevieja is at the forefront of modern medical diagnostics and has many years of experience using Sensitiv Imago technology. The full body diagnostic scan which works by reading frequencies emanating from the body, only takes 45 minutes to generate the most comprehensive and detailed report of any medical technology. In addition to the Full body diagnostic scan, an appointment at MedB will also include a body composition analysis to check for nutrient levels, as well as a follow-up scan carried out three months after the initial scan. And all this is for 130 Euros. To book an appointment call MedB clinic on 965071745, 966189074 or visit the website medb.es for more information.

John via email asks: Hi Aunty. I imagine you get loads of questions about virus protection but please help me out. I purchased a new Acer laptop with windows 10 and it came with a trial version of McAfee antivirus preinstalled. The trial has finished so I tried to install AVG Internet security but it keeps coming up with error messages which I’m guessing is because MacAfee is still installed. Do I need to uninstall Macafe and is AVG the best alternative at the moment? Thanks in advance for all of your help over the years, you have made looking after my computer so much easier. Aunty Says: Thanks John. Yes I have covered this before but I often get asked the same question so no problemo. I still maintain that Windows Defender (the built in free antivirus app that comes bundled with Windows 8 and 10) coupled with the free Malwarebytes will suffice. Remember to do a fortnightly update & scan and you’ll be fine. To uninstall the trial versions of McAfee go to “Settings” “System” “Apps & features” where you should see McAfee in the list. Marcia via email asks: Hello Aunty. I keep getting told by certain friends that they have definitely 100% sent me emails but I have not received them. I have also sent emails that they say were not received. What could be going on? Can emails simply disappear?

Technology

Aunty Says: Hi Marcia. Emails can and do disappear between the sender and recipient, and most of the time it is because they have been blocked or dumped by one of the many firewalls or spam checkpoints along the way. I notice you are using an old Spanish @tiscali.es email address which was notoriously iffy, so I suggest changing over to something like Google’s Gmail or Yahoo. Make sure your antivirus and antispyware programs are all up

to date and keep your system clean. John via email asks: Hi Aunty. I have always used Ccleaner and have had no problems but recently when I run the Registry Tool I am seeing a lot more things listed that I should remove. I’m not sure if I should delete all of the items found as a lot of them are called MUI files & unused file extensions.

51

Aunty Says: Personally I recommend avoiding any cleanup apps that want to make changes to the Windows registry. The Windows registry is a massively complex delicate database that stores absolutely everything Windows needs to be able to load and run properly. The MUI files you are finding are harmless and take up very little room so best leave them be. Certainly let Ccleaner clear any temp files if it finds any. Vic from Benidorm asks: I am having problems stopping a Spanish website from popping up every time I go on the Internet, it keeps appearing whatever I am doing and I have to close Chrome to get rid of it. I have also noticed that Chrome has got very slow and has lately started freezing at totally random times. Aunty Says: Hello Vic. From the full description you emailed me it looks like you have some nasty spyware, or possibly a root-kit virus on your computer. Make sure you have an updated copy of MalwareBytes and then do a full scan of your computer. Also check your favorite antivirus program is up to date and do a full scan with that. That’s all for this week, any questions you can email me at auntyvirus@costablancapeople.com and I’ll see you all next week.

Top 10 Tips for Summer Begins to Driving in Spain Come to a Close We have just passed the busiest part of the summer, however, with so many people visiting for the first time, we thought we’d share our top 10 tips for driving in Spain.

who must sit in the back. They must also be in an approved restraint suitable for them. The only exception is when there aren’t any rear seats, like a sports car, or when the seats are already

1. In Spain we drive on the right. It might seem like an obvious thing to say but many people do forget. In fact, the law says we should drive as far to the right as possible, so don’t go hogging lanes. Also, remember, we go anticlockwise on roundabouts. 2. Speed limits are a maximum, not a target, and remember, they are kilometres per hour. Most signs are the same as in the UK but a blue square is a recommended maximum. 3. Seatbelts. All vehicle occupants must wear a seatbelt. If there are only 2 seatbelts in the back, only 2 people can sit there. Seatbelts must be worn properly too, not under the arm. 4. Kids. Children are not allowed to sit in the front seat. In fact, it is children under 1.35 metres, irrespective of their age,

occupied by smaller children. 5. Alcohol. Spain has a much lower limit than many other countries. However, the best advice if you’re driving is don’t drink at all. The same applies to drugs, but if you’re on prescription medication be careful as these can sometimes affect your driving. 6. Never use your mobile when driving. That goes for any device actually. You are allowed to use your phone as a GPS sat nav, but you mustn’t touch it

when you’re driving. Program it before you set off and stop in a safe, convenient and legal place if you have to change it. 7. Some traffic lights have filter arrows. If the light is red but the filter arrow pointing right is orange, you are allowed to turn right, just remember to give way to traffic already on the main road. 8. When exiting a roundabout, always exit from the right-hand lane, irrespective of how many lanes there are. Unless signs or signals say otherwise. 9. Traffic police vehicles have blue lights illuminated all the time. If you see these blue lights it doesn’t mean pull over or stop. They use flashing red lights to stop you, or flashing white lights from the front. 10. If you get into difficulties or an emergency, dial 112 from any phone. The operators speak many languages, including English, and are there to help. One thing though, try to identify exactly where you are before you phone, as this will make it easier for help to find you. Overall, enjoy your holiday is Spain, stay safe, drive carefully and remember these rules. For more detailed explanations, visit the website, n332.es

We might be on the downward slope towards the end of summer, but the roads are still particularly busy at the moment, and will remain so for a few more weeks yet. In order to keep the roads safer during this period, a number of special campaigns and operations have been set up, where the DGT, Guardia Civil and local and regional police, will give special focus to certain situations. The next campaign takes place during the week of the 21st of August, where speed checks will increase. Inappropriate speed is one of the #Fatal4, the biggest groups of contributing factors to road traffic incidents. Officers will

increase ground and air patrols during this week to try to reduce the number of incidents by reducing the number of speeding vehicles on the roads. Then, the next major operation, Operation Return, takes place from Thursday 31 August to Sunday 3 September, which sees the majority of domestic tourists returning to

their inland homes, ready to start work and school. Throughout summer, teams of people will be on the roads to help you. If you get into difficulty, you can call the Guardia Civil (in Spanish), on 062, or the emergency coordination centre, 112, who speak a variety of languages. Stay safe and enjoy your holiday.

How much more tourism can Spain cope with Barcelona has placed a moratorium on new hotels in the city centre and has come up with a roadmap for reducing tourism in saturated areas, while the Balearic Islands has introduced a law cutting the number of beds available to tourists to 623,624 with a view to gradually settling on a maximum of half a million at any given time. With residents in some parts of Barcelona and the Balearics resentful toward visitors they accuse of pricing them out of the rental market, the measures taken by the Balearic government could become a model for other regions in Spain struggling to cope with increasing numbers of tourists. The tourism sector itself is keen to curb the number of tourists converging on some cities and resorts. “In certain areas, we have to either restrict the accommodations available or substantially raise prices,” says José Luis Zoreda, vice president and spokesman for Exceltur, Spain’s tourism lobby. “We think the measures introduced in the Balearic Islands are a step in the right direction.” The main goal, says Zoreda, is two-fold: to sustain the growth of a sector generating more than 2.5

million jobs and 11 percent of GDP, while ensuring that growth doesn’t adversely affect the local population. The cap on beds in the Balearic Islands is nothing new. A similar measure was introduced in 1999 but was undermined by the arrival of online platforms

advertising properties that managed to bypass the system. Now, a year-long embargo has been imposed on Airbnb, HomeAway and other digital platforms: property owners who ignore the ban face hefty fines of around €400,000. “We can’t take more tourists during the summer season,” says Gabriel Barceló, vice president of Barceló, one of Spain’s leading hotel groups, and who is also a tourism advisor to the Balearic government. “The limits have been exceeded. The balance has to be redressed.”

The policy has been driven by the eco-nationalist party Més, which is determined to refocus the industry toward lower numbers and higher quality. To this end, the Balearic Islands were compared to the Canary Islands, both of which received around 15 million visitors last year, and significant differences were noted. “The Canary Islands are bigger and there are more of them,” says Barceló. “And the visitors are more evenly spread out over the year.” Both the econationalists and the sector agree that greater diversity is needed. “It doesn’t make sense to talk about a national quota,” says Zoreda. “In Teruel, tourism isn’t a problem and probably never will be. But in Barcelona and Palma, it is.” Barcelona and Palma have seen mounting anti-tourist sentiments. According to a survey carried out by City Hall in June, for the first time, Barcelona residents flagged up tourism as the city’s main problem. Airbnb and other digital platforms are largely responsible for Spain’s tourism boom and the rise in the number of beds from 800,000 to 3.3 million in the past 20 years.

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

All the build up, all the hype and the first ever day/night Test match in England barely lasted three days. Pink balls, red balls or tennis balls, this is the weakest Windies cricket team of all time and

none of the remaining Test matches will reach a fifth and final day unless the weather gets involved. Seriously, Michael Holding would be of more use to the Windies bowling right now than any of the guys chucking the ball down. On the subject of sporting farces, I am presuming tickets to Mayweather vs McGregor are proving hard to shift as the

broke and takes on the “edgy” star of the fashionable rival to boxing, UFC, and gets paid a truckload of cash for losing his integrity. Apparently if you get banned for taking drugs in one sport, you can still pop over to the States, pick up an American Football and earn a fine amount of money from playing NFL. Marquise Goodwin, a

led me to learning that China is pretty much the new spiritual home of the green baize and there is a tournament going on out there right now. At the weekend the world’s top six players all got knocked out in the round of 16, suggesting things are pretty competitive out there right now. Well, I thought that until I realised Ronnie O’Sullivan was still in the tournament and

The Med Bar Golf Society Font de llop - as usual at this course, everything was set up and ready for us to enjoy the day’s golf.

Alastair Cook pretty much beat them single-handedly following his first innings knock of 243. Stuart Broad took enough wickets in the match to overtake the great Sir Ian Botham on the all time list. Can the match under floodlights be considered a success? Meh, maybe. It’s almost impossible to say, considering so many matches in an English summer get played in a bit of overcast gloom. Either way,

legendary boxer has gone as far as suggesting that McGregor actually has a chance on Saturday night. Firstly, since when did any boxer say his opponent might win? And secondly, can anyone be surprised that there isn’t that great an uptake for what is a glorified exhibition bout that would look more at home in a modern version of Rocky? You know the one, when Rocky sells out because he is

long jumper nobody has ever heard of, has been banned from track and field for missing several drugs tests but is free to take up his role on the field for the San Francisco 49ers. My childhood love for snooker has returned in the last month or so having read the excellent autobiographies of Jimmy White and Steve Davis, two slightly contrasting characters to say the least. This

had barely lost a frame. Popularity might come and go, but Ronnie is the last remaining link to snooker’s glory days of the 1980’s having played against the likes of Davis and White in his career. And, just as I finished typing that O’Sullivan threw away a 4-1 lead against Luca Brecel to crash out in the quarter finals. Maybe snooker is changing after all.

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

See? See? This is exactly what I mean about Arsenal, and I am not even a fan. I am the worst tipster in the world, I accept that, but even I thought I couldn’t be wrong suggesting Arsenal would wipe the floor with Stoke City on Saturday. The facts were clear to all of us, weren’t they? Arsenal might be shocking defensively but it would not matter as Stoke have been unable to string together an attacking move all preseason plus their 1-0 defeat at Everton last week. Arsenal might be terrible defensively but in Alexandre Lacazette they finally have the man that would win tricky away games at Stoke singlehandedly. Yeah, I should have read the signs a little better really. I mocked Mark Hughes for getting on the phone to PSG last week, begging for any attacking players that might not get in the side ahead of Neymar and the one they sent him, Jese Rodriguez, scored the only legally allowed goal of the match giving Stoke a 1-0. Sure Arsene, you can blame Xhaka for being ‘stupid’, though that is hardly new news and, yes, Lacazette’s goal should have counted but at the end of the day, you went and lost to the worst Stoke City side in a very long time. It may as well be 2007. I would imagine the score from the

Bet365 Stadium will have made Jose Mourinho’s Saturday even more complete. Jose is wise. Unlike 96% of his United fan base he knows there are still a further 36 matches to be played in the Premier League this season and back to back 4-0 victories does not a title maketh. Still, United were dominant against Swansea City who kept it fairly tight for most of the match until they decided to try and pinch a draw rather than accept a 1-0 defeat. A change of tactic by Paul Clement, coupled with Jose sending on Fellaini and Martial, saw United dispatch three quick fire goals and coast home once more. As the world has been repeatedly told, Mourinho has won the league in his second season with five different clubs - a fact that sells slightly fewer papers than talking about his usual third season at a club. Chelsea in crisis eh? While Tottenham were spending the week putting bids in for defenders Paul Merson has never heard of and deliberating which vibe of drum beat to play over the Wembley PA to generate an atmosphere, Conte had his troops on the training pitch working out a new system that would nullify the threat of Harry Kane and Dele Alli and protect the defensive deficiencies of Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen. And blow me, they only went and pulled it off. All that time spent on getting Michy Batshuayi into goal scoring positions from set-pieces

was time very well spent, eh? More importantly was Marcos Alonso’s brace. Tottenham were unbeaten at their real home, White Hart Lane, last season whilst struggling at Wembley. The first ever Premier League match at Wembley also ended in defeat for Tottenham, creating a narrative that will run for a few more weeks yet. Some weeks you have to dig around for some amusing stories to put in this column, and on other weeks West Ham United pretty much write it for you. Southampton hadn’t scored a goal at home since St Mary’s was a mere glimmer in the eye of the architect so many believed that even Joe Hart might actually keep the ball out of the net for 90 minutes. Not so, not so. Southampton sped into a comical 2-0 lead and to make life just that little more tricky for the Hammers their big money crazy man Marko Arnautovic was red carded for one of the more obvious elbows seen in recent memory. Naturally, rather than sparking a further collapse, this galvanised a previously heartless, half-arsed performance from West Ham and Chicharito scored twice from combined distance of about 37 centimetres to get the ten men level. Bravo West Ham, bravo. But wait a minute, where is the comedy in this you might ask? What could be more West Ham than to fight all the way back into the match a man down and then throw it away late on? And they didn’t just lose

to a 30-yard wonder strike or anything, oh no. West Ham gifted Southampton a penalty kick in injury time. Boom, 3-2 Southampton and Joe Hart has now conceded 7 (seven) since returning to the Premier League. Yeah, Pep knows nothing. Hey Frank, how’s the plan to roll out Total Football at the Palace working out for you? Crystal Palace headed up to Liverpool, presumably confident that the Reds couldn’t be fairly defensively sound for two matches in a row. Well, it turns out that if you don’t try and hit their weak spots they can be. I’m sure most of us reading this right now would not claim to be footballing experts, but even we all know that if you get a corner against Klopp’s team and you have someone the size of Christian Benteke in your side you get it in the flipping box? No, not if you are Frank de Boer. Knock it short boys, they’ll be expecting us to stick it into the area! Sadio Mane scored the winner at Anfield and Palace resorted to chucking Scott Dann up top towards the end. I’ve thumbed through my Johan Cruyff Ajax coaching manual and I couldn’t find the page that said do that. Mike Ashley did loosen the purse strings last week, allowing Rafa to sign Joselu from Stoke for a princley £5m. However, that wasn’t enough to make any kind of Geordie impact at Huddersfield who have spent their summer recruiting rather well. And, as a

result, Huddersfield have six points from six and Newcastle have zero from six. Bournemouth could well be in for a tricky old season, as they fell 2-0 at home to a Watford side looking pretty decent under Marco Silva. It’s all very well signing Jermain Defoe but you need to actually use him and then get the ball to him, Eddie. Brighton will almost certainly be relegated by the end of November, as Leicester strolled to a 2-0 victory. Far too many people were getting a little bit excited by Riyad Mahrez playing well and I would care to remind them about two simple details. Firstly, he was playing Brighton. Secondly, the transfer window is still open and he isn’t going to get that move he wants if he plays badly against Brighton. I warned you over the weekend that West Bromwich Albion could well be joint top of the table come Monday morning and this was one of the rare times I was right. Hal Robson-Kanu clearly believes in packing as much as possible into his 20 minute cameo appearances as the Welsh international managed to climb off the bench, score the winner and get sent off. The win was even more impressive considering that Manchester City’s £28m target Jonny Evans was “injured”. Tony Pulis, top of the league. I bet that is making Arsene Wenger hurt even more.

Smiles All Round Torry played their first pre-season friendly on Saturday evening against newly promoted CD Montesinos, with fans enjoying plenty of action in a 3-3 draw. Torry dominated play, but it was clear that the visitors lacked nothing in terms of confidence nor ability. They worried the Torry defence many times and their first goal was the pick of the six on the night. Torry lost the ball inside their own half and from fully 30 yards it was blasted into the roof of the net with precision and venom. This equaliser was applauded by all supporters in the ground and made the score 1-1 after Beltran had lashed the ball home for Torry from close range after good build up play. Torry were looking good all round, but especially down the right flank where Vicente Boix overlapped with gusto. He was fully supported by the returning Manu Amores, the diminutive winger showing his class with a brace on the night. In midfield Dani Salazar demonstrated that he was a cut above the rest with a

dominant display in the middle of the park. He sprayed the ball left and right, as well as incisively through the middle for Eric to latch on to, with one of his darting runs. On the left, Ramiro and Santi impressed fans and their step up to the first team is fully justified. After restoring their advantage, Torry made a couple of defensive errors, which showed the manager that he has much to improve in this department if Torry are to come close to a top three finish this term and thus make the promotion play off matches. CD Montesinos punished them clinically for these mistakes and shot into a 3-2 lead. Their forward play was pacey and assured, causing Torry difficulties throughout the contest. It was left to Manu Amores to level the tie and send both sets of fans home relatively happy. Torry introduced several hopefuls, including 21 year old Dutch player Mathias Hoy, who played the final quarter of the game and despite only having two training sessions under his belt, showed that he could be a valuable

addition to the frontline, alongside Beltran and Eric. Torry has a possible home friendly on Wednesday night (see the club website for confirmation), but will play in Pilar de la Horadada on Saturday evening to further refine the cohesion of the team

and improve match fitness. This is going to be an extremely tough season for the club, trying to regain their 3rd division status, as well as battling with the Town Hall to return and play their league programme at the Vicente Garcia. There will be tears, for sure. No tears on season

ticket prices - just €50, available at the Torry Army office Mon, Wed and Fri between 10.00 and 12.00 at the entrance to the San Luis urbanisation, or from the Nelson Mandela week nights during training sessions. www.clubdeportivotorrevieja.com

Bettas Torrevieja RFC Juniors increasing The Bettas Torrevieja RFC junior section of the club is increasing its numbers rapidly and after a couple of weeks the squad is now in double figures with a great mix of boys and girls. However, it is still looking for more players so that it can set up friendly games and maybe even get a team in the league this season. With the ladies team numbers are increasing, but the club still needs few more to put a team together despite being almost there. Considering the club began only a few months ago the members and committee have done a great job in getting the club up and running and attracting new players on a weekly basis. All ages and abilities are welcome and there is a place for everyone.

The members look forward to seeing plenty more players at training, whether that is juniors, ladies or men with the aim of eventually getting a senior team up and running. Please contact Javi on the number below to check where the training is, but usually on Wednesday it will be at Naufragos Beach Torrevieja from 8.30pm10.00pm and on Sunday in the morning at the athletics track at 11.30. For more information about the team and training contact Javi on 603 727 179.
