“We are a very friendly club and always happy to welcome new members,” Jeff said.

The live auction will be held at the Hill Top Sports Bar and Grill in La Sabatera, near Moraira, and promises an exciting, competitive bidding atmosphere. Donations for the auction can be dropped off from 10am before bidding begins at 12pm.

Akira Animal Sanctuary works in Teulada, Moraira and Benissa to rescue, recuperate and rehome abandoned and abused dogs.

The shelter was founded in 2011 when a group of expatriate animal lovers noticed a need for a new shelter in the area and can now accommodate 50 dogs each night which are mainly brought in from the streets, but some also come in from homes when the owners are unable to provide the care they need. The pandemic and increasing cost of living have caused difficulties for the non-profit organisation and they need your help more than ever, through donating items for the auction and bidding at it. Items must have a value of at least €5 and clothing is not accepted.

Curiosity killed the cat

This proverb is used to tell people to mind their own business and to stop asking questions that don’t concern them. The earliest reference was in 1958 in a play, Every Man in his Humour, that was written by Ben Johnson and adapted to by William Shakespeare.
