Expats demand security Friday, July 8 - Thursday, July 14 2016

RTN HAS joined newspaper colleagues in a battle for proper representation following the Home Secretary’s refusal to guarantee expats the right to live and work in Europe. by jack troughton

Media groups, campaigners and businesses, have united against Theresa May – the frontrunner in the Tory leadership contest – who has warned British citizens could lose out following the controversial ‘Brexit’ referendum.

The Olive Press has launched a petition – supported by RTN - calling for British people living in other European countries to have proper representation in the Houses of Parliament.

And in another move, a group of expats in Almeria has launched another initiative, calling on the EU to defend the rights of all nationals living in countries that are not their home nation - calling themselves ‘Europats’.

In the continued Brexit fallout, Labour is forcing a Commons vote next week demanding the estimated three million EU nationals living in the UK do not become “bargaining chips”.

A word from JT

The laws of the jungle are stalking the corridors of power in Westminster as the aftershocks of Brexit continue to reverberate around the home of modern democracy. A new petition seeks to insure that we do not become the prey.

At RTN Towers the team has joined with colleagues at The Olive Press and media organisations across Europe in supporting a petition calling for real representation back home and a slice of security for our lives as expats here.

Largely ignored during the Brexit campaign, it seems Brits living in the EU and EU citizens in the UK could face becoming the ‘bargaining chips’ in negotiations and we must avoid becoming sacrificial lambs in the fallout. In short, sign the petition.

Wild animals in the real world made the headlines last weekend with the horrific death of a keeper at Terra Natura, attacked by a tiger she cared for; an official inquiry will seek to discover what went wrong.

Bengal Tigers are magnificent beasts and it is heartening to learn the big cat ‘Kali’ is unlikely to be put down, especially as the dead woman’s family say they want the animal to be shown mercy – saying it is also what the dead keeper would have wanted.

Parking Blues The parking lot by the shops is far too small. There’s nothing new about that in Spain, where Antoni Gaudí, the nation’s last decent architect, died in 1922, run over by a tram in Barcelona.

by Lenox Napier In the Parque Comercial, Mojácar’s nerve-centre, there are around ninety shops and offices, plus a supermarket and some cafés, and there is parking for about sixty cars. So, it’s usually full. Crammed and double-parked.

There are emergency lights, which can last for hours, people taking up two parking lanes, cars parked so close that you need a shoe-horn to get into the rear-door to clamber over the seats and dog-basket to get to the controls, impatient honking, and trucks unloading.

A couple of years ago, the main post office moved there from the other end of the beach; bringing even more cars, double parked, a one-way system, with two-way drivers: “Excuse me...I shan’t be a moment.”

How can Mojácar be so badly planned? We have seventeen kilometres of playa, served by one narrow road and enough parking spaces for about a quarter of the cars which are endlessly circulating during the summer months.

SPACE I get to the Commercial Centre quite early – incredibly early by local standards – and cruise around the block until I find a space. The shopkeepers and staffers are there before me, already, the parking lot is almost full before the first client has arrived.

Then, after some help from ‘On High’ – and the prayer “Oh, Saint Agnes, full of Grace, please find me a parking space” - I lock the car and meander off with my trusty plastic bag to the supermarket, the café or the lawyer or wherever.

When I return a few hours later, plastic bag brimming with dog food, groceries and refreshment, I find that I can’t find my car. It’s not that I’ve forgotten where I parked it; it’s that I never remembered.

If I go to Granada, there’s no way I’m going to forget where I left the car; but regularly leaving it somewhere in those small and badly designed spaces that surround the commercial centre where I visit, I am obliged to wander around the outside of the entire building several times a week, in search of my car, having forgotten where it was the moment I left it.

At least I remember what kind of car it is – an old and very scratched one. There’s not much point in having any other kind with these narrow parking places which are laughingly designed by Spain’s master architects.

Keep calm...mostly THE THREAT of ‘Brexit’, while still not understood, is worrying the people of Almería; agriculturists in the western side of the province sell large amounts of their produce, grown under plastic, to British supermarkets.

Would those customers suddenly see Morocco with a keener eye? It’s possible.

What of tourism: could this take a step backwards in any way in a province highly tuned to foreign tourists and their full purses?

Meanwhile, the British residents are also somewhat concerned by events taking place in far-off London, and several local town halls have posted reassuring notices.

The Mayor of Mojácar Rosmari Cano has issued a statement to say that Mojácar supports its British citizens.

In Albox, the Irish Councillor for Tourism is Maura Hillen (better known across the province as the secretary of the property-owners friend, the AUAN). Maura has also written a statement issued by the town hall with a similar message: ‘Don’t worry; we have two years before anything will happen’.

And in Zurgena, a similar message has been released by the councillor Jim Simpson, who nevertheless is worried by events and is in favour of taking some action.

He suggests that an internal European passport needs to be created, and some representation in Brussels for the huge number of ‘Europats’, who live in one European country while holding a passport from another.

Pedro Sánchez in Mojácar THE LEADER of PSOE, the Spanish socialist party, Pedro Sánchez and his family have enjoyed a little ‘down time’ following the inconclusive election results on June 26th and spent last weekend in Mojácar, where they own an apartment.

The press had agreed to leave him alone (for once), so, while RTN saw him dining with his family in La Candela – a fashionable restaurant in the village – last Friday night, the exhausted candidate was left to enjoy his dinner in peace.

The RTN reporter wanted, above all, to compliment Pedro on his recent speech, made in English to the British expats in Spain, exhorting them to vote in the Referendum to stay in the EU...and to maybe buy him a drink (on expenses, of course).

Pedro Sánchez’ last day, before returning to his busy schedule (will the PSOE support Mariano Rajoy for President of a minority government, perhaps with their abstention?), was marked by a meal with his wife and two daughters at the famous Aku Aku beach bar.

Pedro was wearing a sun-hat, but it wasn’t enough to entirely keep the hacks and paparazzi at bay. A photo of the politician was duly posted on Twitter and... the cat was finally out of the bag.

Tiger safe THE TIGER that killed a keeper in a tragic accident at Terra Natura wildlife park in Benidorm on Saturday is unlikely to be put down.

by Jack Troughton The 37-year-old woman died of her injuries after being attacked by the powerful Bengal Tiger while cleaning pens away from public areas.

And the animal was immediately sedated to allow emergency teams to get to the stricken woman, who had worked at Terra Natura for eight years, but they could do nothing to save her life.

Terra Natura is home to three tigers – two are Bengal Tigers which are an endangered species with only an estimated 2,500 left in the wild, the third a Sumatran Tiger.

Animal lovers immediately expressed concerns for the tiger, named Kali, and it now appears the animal’s future has been secured, according to national newspaper El Mundo - quoting ‘sources’ at the park.

“It was never our intention to let the tiger be killed – the victim’s family don’t want this to happen and neither would she have done,” said an insider. “The animal was only acting on natural instinct.”

After the incident at the wildlife park, Terra Natura immediately sent its condolences to the keeper’s family and friends, saying “all staff at the park are shocked and deeply affected by the tragic news”.

In a statement, the park said it “complied with strict safety protocol for the handling of animals” and the keeper “came into direct contact with the animal while cleaning interior pens.”

And it said the keeper had worked at Terra Natura for eight years and was an “expert” on felines and other species.

Alberto Gaforio, the park’s manager, said he hoped the circumstances of the “fatal incident” could be cleared up as soon as possible, and said the victim had “wide experience as a zoo keeper”.

In an interview with the EFE news agency, he said: “She has been with us for eight years working with felines and all kinds of species. She was very professional and had a lot of experience, and we still don’t know for sure what could have happened.”

Mr Gaforio conveyed condolences from all the management team and staff and said everyone was “concerned and devastated over what happened.

Expats demand security by jack troughton

RTN HAS joined newspaper colleagues in a battle for proper representation following the Home Secretary’s refusal to guarantee expats the right to live and work in Europe.

Media groups, campaigners and businesses, have united against Theresa May – the frontrunner in the Tory leadership contest – who has warned British citizens could lose out following the controversial ‘Brexit’ referendum.

The Olive Press has launched a petition – supported by RTN - calling for British people living in other European countries to have proper representation in the Houses of Parliament.

And in another move, a group of expats in Almeria has launched another initiative, calling on the EU to defend the rights of all nationals living in countries that are not their home nation - calling themselves ‘Europats’.

In the continued Brexit fallout, Labour is forcing a Commons vote next week demanding the estimated three million EU nationals living in the UK do not become “bargaining chips”.

The Home Secretary sparked fury in an interview when she said: “What is important is there will be a negotiation here as to how we deal with that issue of people who are already here and Brits who have established a life in other countries within the UK. “There’s no change at the moment, but of course we have to factor that into the negotiations.”

Her view is in stark contrast to leadership rival Andrea Leadsom – who was part of the ‘leave’ campaign leading up the 23rd June ballot – who wants to protect the rights of European migrants living in the UK and some two million British expats currently living in Europe.

Daniel Wilkinson, Managing Director of RTN, said: “It is time for our leaders to give some real guarantees about our lives here in Spain and across Europe. We stand up for expats and never has this been more important following the referendum.

PROTECT “The British Government has a duty to protect its citizens and their rights across the continent; politicians must now step up and be seen to take a positive and responsible role.”

The Olive Press’ Rob Hogan said: “We are more accustomed to fighting the wrongs of foreign governments but now the threat is from the UK and puts the lives of millions of expats across the continent in jeopardy.

“Theresa May’s comments are alarming, to say the least, and have put all our lives in limbo. We urge all expats across the EU to join our campaign in order to be assured that we have the right to remain in the countries where we have chosen to work and live.”

Lenox Napier, writer and RTN contributor, is part of a team launching the Europats initiative aimed at finding expats a voice in London, Madrid and Brussels.

“We need security and a promise”.

He said there were up to two million British expats living within the EU and something like 20 million Europeans living in other EU countries. “Who speaks for them? If we were to organise as ‘expats’, it would be as expats Europe-wide, all those Europeans who live in another country ands have no representation in Brussels.”

Lenox added: “So let us start now, before the recent politics of the UK can breach our safety and our comfort.”

To sign the petition visit www.petition.parliament. uk/petitions and search for: ‘UK parliament for 1.2 million British expats in EU post-Brexit’.

Sitting pretty

FUNDRAISING GROUP FACE has presented charity Harmony Community Support with much-needed equipment at the conclusion of its ‘Summer Giving Campaign’.

by Jack Troughton

Art gallery mirador del castillo JULY: The gallery is open all through the year and the exhibitions are changed every month.

The exhibition taking place now will be on until the end of the month.

In this exhibition we show exact copies of a collection of Roman and Greek amphoras, from different museums, that were used to hold wine or oil. They come from the near by village of Carboneras and have being submerged in the sea between 5 to 10 years.

The charity is building up a stock of equipment useful in the community and FACE – Fundraising in Arboleas, Caring for Everyone - donated toilet seat risers which help people to continue to enjoy a comparatively normal existence even when suffering painful ailments.

Harmony is just over 12 months old and is based in the CAT Services building in Avenida Andalucia in La Alfoquia – committed to providing voluntary, practical and informative assistance to people needing support because of ill health.

It works with other charities and organisations to help people in need of companionship, transport, translations, counselling, home help and other requirements.

It has even set up a refreshment area in the CAT Services building, called ‘Harmony Heaven’. Visitors enjoy a warm welcome from volunteers, who are also willing to chat over a cuppa and a slice of cake.

FACE has supported Harmony since its launch and aims to continue to give the charity its backing; and last month gave almost 2,000€ to organisations in the Almanzora Valley, including ‘Little

Owls’ and MACS, Mojacar Area Cancer Support.

For further information about Harmony, call 634 339 192 between 11am and 2pm or email help@harmonycharity.com. For further information about FACE, call Adele Wrigglesworth on 667 255 094 or visit website www.face-charity.com or its Facebook page.

Pictured (from left) are FACE Committee member Lorraine Cundy, FACE President Adele Wrigglesworth, and Harmony President Karen Revel.

AUGUST: There will be a painting exhibition of different artists from Almeria, Water Colour Association, Sculptures from the Marble School and international artists, Alvaro Castanet, Julio Visconti and Anushree Krementz among others.

Hand of friendship BRITISH RESIDENTS in Mojacar have been offered a hand of friendship by the local community in the aftermath of ‘Brexit’.

The town hall hopes the British and Spanish governments will reach agreements to benefit British and Spanish migrants who have moved abroad to start new lives.

Withdrawal from the UK from the European Union is an “unprecedented” event and will take place over at least two years – during that time the legal status of relations between former partners does not change.

Mayor of Mojacar Rosmari Cano said the town had a large number of British residents now faced with “logical anxieties” with many questions and doubts.

She said: “Our town has a very close bond with its British residents. We have co-existed for decades and the integration is complete. Mojácar would not be the same without the British population. It is part of our recent history.

“Together we have formed Mojácar to make it the different, attractive and unique town that it is. We share many projects that enrich both cultures and the municipality. We also have many long term plans and we intend to continue doing business as usual.

“The Town Council has supported its British community and will continue working to do so, as far as the law allows, with the same care and concern as we do today. There has been no change in our relationship and it is our intention and desire to carry on being useful to those who need us.”

And she said following the ‘out’ vote of the referendum: “The councillors of Mojácar and I personally, want to show our support and solidarity with the British residents who wish to continue living in Mojácar.

“I would like to reassure them that they can safety count on our help whatever the circumstances.”

British artist exhibits work Mojacar continues its commitment to support art and artists from around the world this summer with art galleries remaining open during the season providing an added attraction for residents, tourists and visitors.

The local council, through its Department of Culture, welcomes work of by British painter Finn Campbell whose offerings are on display at the Municipal Art Centre, La Fuente until 15th July.

Although a Londoner by birth, Finn, grew up in a rural setting, which he has incorporated into his paintings on canvas. His artistic restlessness has led him to work and live in different parts of the world including San Francisco, Brussels, Barcelona and Andalusia.

He has been a professional illustrator since 2001, and his style compares with the illustrators of the golden age employing exquisite linear drawing, warm tones and harmonic compositions.

He has also combined his pictorial talent with work in the world of consulting and commercial design and is an author of numerous books that research and recommend on vernacular architecture, society, history, environment and local cultures.

Spanish airline cancels flights

by Caroline Tyszka EXTRA POLICE were called into Barcelona airport at the weekend to calm down passengers whose flights with airline Vueling had been cut due to ongoing problems.

Another air traffic control strike on Tuesday also caused hundreds of flight to be cancelled with many of the low cost airlines including the Spanish no frills carrier Vueling.

Owned by IAG, Vueling cancelled over sixty flights on the day with Ryanair cancelling 102 and leaving 18,000 passengers having to reschedule their plans.

However, the problems for Vueling began last Thursday when many flights were delayed for over twelve hours and several were cancelled, leaving many families starting their summer holidays facing severe disruption.

The airline blamed the difficulties on “operational problems” which were then further complicated by the ATC strike.

A union representative has said that the problems for the airline have come following the launch of a summer schedule which has not taken into account the additional planning and staff required.

The country’s Public Works Ministry has said the airline will face an inquiry and that a fine may be issued with the possibility of Vueling’s permanent licence being replaced with a temporary one.

The airline has said that it will be hiring approximately thirty additional pilots and look to rent another six planes to fulfil their obligations.

Fugitive drug dealer caught A convicted Irish drug dealer was arrested in Spain after spending more than a year on the run and has appeared before a court back in his homeland.

Mark Dunford, aged 41 and originally from Waterford, but with an address at Ballylagan Lane, Coleraine, was arrested under a European Arrest Warrant on Saturday 25th June with the assistance of the Spanish police.

He appeared at Ballymena Magistrates Court on Wednesday morning charged with selling amphetamines to the value of £200,000 – an offence that he had previously pleaded guilty to.

Deputy District Judge Laura Levers remanded him in custody to appear for sentence at a Crown Court on July 27th.

Father arrested for babies murder

A FATHER has been arrested for the murder of his young baby following a public plea to find him.

by Angela Baker The Moroccan man, Hicham Bourass Bourjel aged 35, from Nijar in Almería, has been accused of violently attacking his child resulting in its death on June 24th.

Guardia Civil issued a plea on social media asking everyone to help locate the man following a call from the mother, also Moroccan, from their home in Campohermoso in Nijar.

Emergency services rushed to the scene but could do nothing to save the young babies life in what has been described by officers as a “death in extremely violent conditions.”

On Saturday 2nd July the Guardia Civil announced that they had found Bourjel at a caravan near the town of Pujaire, Nijar, where he had been hiding whilst trying to arrange his escape on a boat.

He was remanded in custody without bail.

Spain’s largest seizure of illegal tobacco GUARDIA CIVIL officers have seized almost 100 tons of smuggled tobacco in Granada, making it the largest haul in Spanish history.

Officers and representatives from the tax office, working under operation “Rosa”, seized 95 tons of tobacco, equivalent to more than eight and a half million cigarette packets.

The investigation, which began in January, resulted in the arrest of two people and was assisted by the Association of Tobacconists of Granada.

The large scale illegal operation involved the goods being transformed from the leaf state into tobacco without any sanitary conditions being applied.

After numerous surveillance operations and the monitoring of suspicious targets, investigators detected three ships in Chauchina (Granada) where they were manufacturing tobacco into a suitable product for smoking.

The goods were then distributed to other companies or individuals in different parts of Andalusia (Granada, Almeria, Seville and Jaen).

The operation is still ongoing with further arrests possible.

Pulled to safety

by Jack Troughton LIFEGUARDS HELPED by members of the public pulled swimmers to safety from dangerous rocks at a Costa Blanca beach on Sunday.

People formed a human chain through the surf to rescue bathers swept into danger at Bol Nou, Villajoyosa.

Retired couple Mike and Doreen Sambrook, who live in La Cala Finestrat, were at the beach with their daughter Claire out for a holiday, said the sea was rough and needed to be “respected”.

“However, a few people did not and found themselves being swept dangerously too near the rocks – the quick-thinking life-

guards raced into the sea to save them,” said Mike.

“Onlookers realised that they needed help and quickly made a human chain to assist.

Those ‘rescued’ needed time to recover.”

The couple, originally from South Wales have lived in Spain for 15 years, said the police and ambulance service were also alerted.

Mike, a keen RTN reader, said until the drama it had been a lovely day but the waves got stronger as the sea “got up”.

He added: “People got into trouble – the two lifeguards went in and everyone on the beach got up and helped – it was a combined effort.

“A life threatening situation had been prevented thanks to our wonderful lifeguards and of course the caring public. As the lifeguards walked back to their station the whole of the beach applauded them.”

Google’s offices raided THE SPANISH offices of the giant internet company Google have been raided as part of a tax investigation.

by Caroline Tyszka The raid in Madrid came after authorities suspected the giant company was not declaring its economic activity in Spain, and focuses on VAT payments.

The company has come under increasing pressure within Europe over its financial dealings, this investigation coming just weeks after its Paris offices were raided in a separate case.

Google has insisted that it pays all taxes it owes in Spain. A spokesman said: “We comply with Spanish tax laws just as we do in all countries where we operate.

“We are co-operating with the authorities in Spain in order to answer all their questions, as always. We comply with Spanish tax laws just as we do in all countries where we operate.”

The Paris offices were searched by around 100 investigators as part of a year-long probe into tax fraud last month. The company’s French operation has been accused of not paying up to €1.6bn (£1.3bn) in French taxes, although it also says it abides by the law.

Last year, Google agreed to pay the UK Treasury £130m in back taxes following extensive criticism of its UK tax arrangements.

Iraq in mourning

IRAQ STAGED three days of mourning this week following the terrorist attack in Baghdad on Sunday that killed at least 170 people.

Following the deadliest single attack in the Iraqi capital this year the Prime Minister Haider al Abadi vowed that the perpetrators will be punished. The Islamic State terrorist group has claimed that it was responsible after a suicide bomber drove a truck loaded with explosives to an area where families and young people filled the streets after breaking their Ramadan fast. Officials say that at least fifteen children were amongst the dead and 225 were wounded, some of whom are in a critical condition.

Spain will not be taxing the sun the rumours circulating a few years ago about the Spanish government wanting to tax people who installed solar systems were actually true at the time.

This is now not the case. You can install solar without any fear of being taxed.

Keith the owner operator of solardirecta explains a little further.

The argument put forward by the Spanish government and electricity supply companies was that if you were producing electricity and it is feeding it back into the national grid you should be classed as a producer and taxed accordingly just like Iberdrola or Endesa.

This was challenged all the way by the opposition parties and regional governments and the case was won and the notion has not been implemented.

The regional governments have been left to come up with their own regulations for the installation of solar power and Murcia lead the way last year by passing a law allowing installations to go ahead as long as they do not produce what the Spanish call spillage into the national grid.

As with everything techno, progress and developments by the major European inverter manufacturer’s means it is now possible to install equipment that is for self-consumption only which meets all the relevant laws. We have installed several of these systems over the last few months. One of the fantastic things with them is there is no need for expensive batteries which reduces the cost substantially and thus shortening pay back times.

One of our clients has reported savings of up to 70% on their energy consumption which in turn calculates to savings in excess of 1000â‚Ź per year. Of course savings are relative to your initial investment. With the extremely low interest rates on savings now more than ever it makes strong financial sense to consider having us install a system for you.

Keith has been fully legal and installing solar systems for hot water and electricity here in Spain since 2004. If you would like advice or a no obligation quote to see how much you will save you can contact him direct on 659315130 or email sales@solardirecta.com

Ban on sale of animals THE SPANISH government is considering changing the law and banning the sale of animals in pet shops.

by Caroline Tyszka THE PSOE, Ciudadanos and Podemos parties have put forward a proposal where anyone wishing to buy a pet should have to select it from a catalogue provided by breeders, who have legal permits and inspections.

The intention is to reduce impulsive purchases because after a period of time many animals are being abandoned - often because they are a financial burden or the owner had not thought about the care level required - a rising problem for the country.

There will be many people who feel the change is long overdue, however, opponents to the planned bill are concerned about the impact this would have on pet stores and small businesses.

A different class JAVEA ARTISTS Brigitte Schemmer and Maggie Morgan met “a long time ago” at Spanish classes and have remained friends ever since.

They have both lived in the Marina Alta town for 15 years and shared a summer exhibition last weekend, Brigitte’s ceramics and Maggie’s collages and paintings proved a popular attraction for an international audience and both sold pieces.

The venue was Brigitte’s workshop in Javea Old Town – rented from a ‘penya’, which uses the space for 15 days a year, and also where she stages her classes.

“We have known each other a long time, back from when we met at Spanish classes,” said Brigitte. “We decided it was a good opportunity for a short exhibition before classes start again.”

Summer warning for pet owners AS TEMPERATURES continue to rise RTN would like to remind pet owners how animal as well as humans can suffer from the heat.

by Caroline Tyszka Hot weather makes for some unique summer pet care challenges. Although wild animals are well adapted to the elements, pets can be just as susceptible to extreme temperatures as their owners.

Unlike humans, who have the ability to sweat through all of our skin, dogs release heat through their paw pads and by panting. For many domestic animals dehydration can be a big problem.

According to the ASPCA, animals with flat faces—like Pugs and Persian cats—cannot pant as effectively, and are therefore more susceptible to heat stroke. Owners should also keep an eye on elderly or overweight pets or animals with heart and lung disease.

It is vital to make sure pets have access to plenty of fresh, cool water, and avoid letting them run around outside during the hottest parts of the day.

And one big problem with the heat is the temperature of the ground, with surfaces retaining high temperatures. Many dogs have to be treated for burns on their paw pads as owners simply don not think to check how hot the ground is before venturing out for a stroll. A simple rule to protect your pet from this excruciating pain is, if you cannot walk bare foot then neither can they.

Check a pet regularly for bugs and consult a local vet about the best way to protect them from fleas, ticks and other insects which are more prevalent during the summer months.

Some pets, particularly those with short fine hair or pink skin, can be susceptible to sunburn. Again a vet can advise of a suitable sunscreen. Do not use products that have not been recommended by a professional, some protective creams used by humans can cause drooling, vomiting, diarrhoea, excessive thirst and lethargy in pets.

A final piece of advice is water safety. Many pets love to jump into the pool to cool down but getting out may not be as easy. Always keep a close eye on animals when they are in the water and consider buying a ‘doggie life preserver’ if there are plans to go out on a boat – they may not be as strong a swimmer as people think.

Treat a pet the same as a small child during the summer months but always consult a vet over any health concerns.

Teachers strike

www.roundtownnews.com

by Caroline Tyszka

THOUSANDS OF teachers in the UK staged a 24 hour strike on Tuesday over cuts in funding.

Teachers joined rallies and marches across the country to demand an increase in funding for schools and education, leaving many working parents struggling to get someone to care for their children.

The National Union of Teachers said schools are facing ‘the worst cuts in funding since the 1970s’ and accuse the government of “damaging” the education system.

Kevin Courtney, from the NUT, said teachers had not taken strike action “lightly”, but considered the problems facing education “too great to ignore”.

He said: “The strike is about the under funding of our schools and the negative impact it is having on children’s education and teachers’ terms and conditions.”

And the union has written to Education Secretary Nicky Morgan to call for “meaningful” discussions to tackle issues it claims are damaging education.

Footballer sentenced for tax fraud THE BARCELONA striker Lionel Messi has been sentenced to 21 months in prison for tax fraud.

The Argentinian international player, along with his father Jorge, were both found guilty of using overseas companies to avoid paying taxes on 4.16 million euros of the footballer’s income which had been earnt during 2007 and 2009 from image rights.

The hearing on Wednesday also handed down the same sentence to Messi senior and they were fined 3.7 million euros.

Messi’s father had managed his 29 year old son’s finances for many years but the footballer told the court that he had always trusted his father to deal with any investments and had no idea how these had been managed.

Whilst prosecutors had asked for Messi to be absolved, arguing there was no evidence the player was aware of how his income was managed, the authorities decided that he must have somehow been aware of the situation.

During the original investigation into the fraud in 2013 the father and son made a voluntary payment of 5 million euros to cover the unpaid taxes and interest.

The pair will appeal against the court’s decision - although neither were expected to serve time in prisonas under the Spanish legal system prison terms of under two years can be served on probation.

Paedophile gang arrested

by Caroline Tyszka GUARDIA CIVIL have arrested nineteen people for possessing and distributing material involving child sex abuse.

Operation “Without Borders” raided fourteen homes in thirteen Spanish cities - including Alicante, Albacete, Jaen, and Tarragona. They discovered hundreds of thousands of files which contained child pornography.

Specialist teams have, over time, managed to identify fourteen minors in Spain and two in Colombia who were victims to sexual abuse.

The Spanish authorities worked in conjunction with other nations’ police forces – an international operation involving sixteen Latin American countries and the United States.

Officers in all the countries conducted simultaneous raids and a further sixty people were arrested.

Investigators in Spain acted on information provided by Interpol which had discovered multiple internet users sharing files containing images of the child abuse.

Guardia Civil said in some cases the minors had been manipulated into providing video images of themselves by someone pretending to be of a similar age of social networks.

What should I do in case of a car accident?

Summer is now here in beautiful, sunny Spain. With temperatures soaring it’s a great feeling, although a tad hot at times for all expats that live and work in this tranquilo environment; tranquilo that is until the influx of tourists from many countries around the world especially from Britain and the rest of Europe.

Now, more than other times during the year, one needs to be even more careful than ever on the roads. With all these extra cars and drivers, who are perhaps more used to driving on the left, an increase in the risk of traffic accidents is inevitable.

Always make sure your tyre pressures are correct by checking them at least once a month. Also check your car’s radiator level is topped up; the last thing you want is to overheat and have to wait for a breakdown truck on the edge of a busy motorway! It’s also illegal to run out of screen wash, so make sure this is topped up too. And driving with flip-flops or shoes with no back is not permitted either. Needless to say, seat belts must be worn all round, and young children need safety harnesses. Using mobile phones are a definite no no, INCLUDING texting, which is probably worse than speaking.

Should the unthinkable happen, here are some tips that everyone, from a new driver to an experienced one, should remember in the case of an accident: • Stay calm and wear the reflective vest • Get to a safe area near the accident scene, turn on your emergency flashers and use the two triangles • Make sure everyone is okay and call 112, if necessary • When it is safe, take pictures of the vehicles involved, damage, road signs, etc.

• Get statements and contact information from any witnesses

• Complete the accident report: write down the other driver’s licence number, insurance details, vehicle information and phone number. Remember it has to be signed by both drivers and reported within seven days; If you need road assistance, call immediately to 900 101 369, Liberty Free Phone Number, where you will be attended in your own language.

LIBERTY SEGUROS Car Insurance is tailor-made with you in mind and is perfect for Expats in Spain. It offers total coverage to both the driver and passengers in case of an accident, as well as roadside assistance from kilometre zero.

Drugs den closed down FOUR MEN have been arrested after Guardia Civil officers raided a house in Orihuela Costa being run as a drugs den.

The officers from Pilar de la Hordada held two Dutch nationals, aged 59 and 31, along with an Austrian aged 26 and a Spaniard age 22. They were charged with drug trafficking

Pistorius sentenced to six years

by Caroline Tyszka THE SOUTH African Olympic and Paralympic athlete Oscar Pistorius was sentenced to a further six years in prison for the murder of his girlfriend n Wednesday.

Judge Thozokile Masipa’s decision in Pretoria followed a three-day court hearing and days of deliberation, as impact statements from the accused and family members of the victim Reeva Steenkamp were considered.

Pistorius was accused of murdering his girlfriend in February 2013 and initially found guilty of culpable homicide, serving one year of a fiveyear sentence before being released under house arrest conditions at a property owned by his uncle.

In December 2015 the prosecution had the judgement overturned by South Africa’s Supreme Court and judges then found him guilty of murder.

Although he faced a sentence of up to fifteen years the judge stated that “substantial and compelling” reasons meant that a six year sentence was appropriate.

The former athlete showed little emotion, but looked relieved as he was immediately led away to begin his imprisonment.

“The judgment is an insult to women. It sends the wrong message,” said Jacqui Mofokeng of the African National Congress women’s league, who has attended much of the trial and was in court for the judgement.

Cluedo kills character

IN ITS own case of “who dunnit?”, the game Cluedo has a new look and although five characters get to keep their names they have had a style revamp.

Only one character has remained unchanged – Colonel Mustard – in the classic board game which has entertained families since 1923 Mrs White, the housekeeper of Dr Black, has been retired and replaced with Dr Orchid, who is described as being privately educated in Switzerland until a “near-fatal daffodil poisoning incident.” Hasbro, owners of the game, said that it had taken the decision to kill off Mrs White, the first since 1949, because: “After 70 years of suspicious activity, we decided that one of the characters had to go.”

Murcian goat helping out El Imida, a public research body whose main priority is to enhance the requirements within the agricultural sector, has sent 400 specimens of semen and 410 embryos of the Murcia-Granada goat to a Bolivia and and additional 10,000 semen specimens to the Dominican Republic.

by Rhiannan Bell The initiative is part of a project launched by the University Juan Misael Saracho of Tarija in Bolivia, together with members of Imida’s livestock development team, aiming to improve milk production by imporving the genetic mix of animals.

The inclusion of the Murcia-Granada goat in this experiment has come about because the breed has worldwide recognition for its high cheese yield.

And the interest from the Dominican Republic in the breed is due to its quality of milk because it has a very healthy nutritional composition. The country wants to increase its milk production and reduce its current interest of rearing goats for meat.

Goat milk in general contains mostly polyunsaturated fatty acids Omega 3 and Omega 6 and a lower percentage of cholesterol than cow’s milk and is more easily digestible.

This makes it a good choice for children, the elderly, and people suffering from certain gastric disorders. A low content of lactose and casein makes it more suitable for people allergic to these proteins.

If the new initiatives prove successful, it will hopefully provide Murcian farmers with more opportunities in the future to expand their markets.

‘Investors need to take a deep breath and count to ten’: Brexit tips to avoid knee-jerk reactions that could cost you a fortune The stock market may have fallen sharply on Friday 24th June following confirmation that the nation had voted to leave the European Union, but it made good some of its early losses by the time it closed.

Indeed, the FTSE 100 Index, embracing the stock market’s largest companies by value, finished the last week higher than it started.

Though further share price corrections are inevitable in the coming weeks, experts say investors should not be panicked out of the market because that would crystallise losses in their portfolios.

HOLD ON If you do not need to access your long-term investments for a pressing financial need, experts are encouraging investors to bite their lips and see out the market froth.

DIVERSIFY Asset managers believe it is essential that investors diversify their portfolios across assets and currencies, mitigating risk – though not eradicating it. This means holding a mix of equities bonds, cash and property.

GET USED TO VOLATILITY Volatility is likely to be with us for the foreseeable future and not just because of Brexit. Other factors – economic and political – overhang the world economy including the US presidential election in November, the continued slowdown in China and future interest rate movements in the US.

Earth is healing

THE HOLE in the ozone over the Antarctic is starting to heal and getting smaller, researchers from the United States and United Kingdom have found.

The new study announced in magazine ‘Science’ describes the ‘cure’ as a triumph of international cooperation over a man-made environmental problem – the ozone layer was “eaten away” by chemicals used in aerosols and refrigerants.

Ozone is a combination of oxygen atoms high in the earth’s atmosphere and shields the planet from harmful ultraviolet rays – which can cause cancer.

Scientists discovered the hole has shrunk by a fifth – an area three times the size of Texas. It is expected to completely close by around the mid-century.

Susan Solomon, who was the lead author of the study, said the healing process began much earlier than scientists predicted. “It isn’t that the patient is in remission, he’s actually starting to get better. The patient got very sick in the 80’s when we were pumping all that chlorine into the air.”

And she believes the success “is a tremendous cause for home” as humans look to find a remedy for other environmental problems, such as man-made climate change.

The ozone layer is between six to 30 miles high – 10 to 50 kilometres – and was attacked by chemicals known as chlorofluorocarbons, or CFCs, which broke down into chlorine and attacked ozone.

In 1987, a global treaty, the Montreal Protocol was signed after earth’s “gaping wound” grabbed public attention. The CFCs were phased out as companies developed less harmful products – scientists say there is a feeling of ‘mission accomplished’ as a result.

Do you know which reference interest rate your mortgage has? Is it an abusive IRPH? Most people have a mortgage. Usually they have a variable interest rate, which in most cases is referred to the EURIBOR, the most common interest index or rate of reference in Spain.

However, in some mortgages the interest rate of reference is not the EURIBOR, it is the Index of Reference of Mortgage Loans or IRPH, today it is known as the IRPH of all entities, which takes into account the loan interests agreed by all financial institutions.

The main problem is that although most consumers are unaware of it, the IRPH is and has always been much higher than the Euribor, in fact at the time of writEuribor is -0.03%, and IRPH of all entities is + 1.89%, so it is 1.92% higher.

ing this article, the

The IRPH is an official index and is legal, but, as happens with the mortgage floor (suelo) clauses, they were included in many consumer’s mortgages without their knowing it, resulting in major economic losses because they pay much more than if their mortgage had been referenced to Euribor. It is essential to know whether the consumer when signing the mortgage was informed of the existence of several benchmarks or mortgage interests rate or indexes, and the consequences of choosing one or the other, etc.

So if you have a mortgage and despite the general decline in interest rates, you are still paying a high interest, then you may be affected by a mortgage floor clause, or by the IRPH, or both.

If you were not informed correctly about the interest index of your mortgage, if no one explained the different options, the possible consequences, you could request that the IRPH be declared null and void, for being abusive. In this sense, the court decision of the Provincial Court of Alicante number 309/2015, although ruling against the consumer, confirmed that the IRPH clauses are subject to a transparency control, its validity depends on whether the consumer has had an adequate knowledge before signing the mortgage of their economic and legal consequences, the same as applies for mortgage floor clauses.

There are many court precedents that have declared IRPH null and void, like the Court decision of the Provincial Court of Vitoria, Section 1, granted on the 10/03/2016, of the court case number 248/2015 of the Commercial Court No. 2 of Murcia, etc.

The clauses stating that the interest to be paid will depend on the IRPH will not always be declared null and void, but if you are affected by this type of interest, and you were not conveniently informed by the bank, legally you have the ability to claim for its nullity, and the refund of all interest overpaid, which are usually very high amounts. Contact us and we will help you.

Keith Littlewood International Financial Adviser

Crystal Ball v Common Sense During the last couple of weeks there seem to have been more financial experts coming out of the woodwork telling what is going to happen in every scenario.

It is early days but it appears following the vote for Brexit that some of them were right but actually most of them were in fact wrong.

All of the above tells me one thing, NOBODY REALLY KNOWS WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN! I have been advising on investments for going on 30 years now and the Best piece of advice I would give anyone is DIVERSIFY, DIVERSIFY and DIVERSIFY. Do not put all your hard earned money in one place on the basis of being told about an amazing opportunity.

There are 5 main assets in which to diversify: Cash, Property, Bonds (Government & Corporate), Equities and Commodities.

• Cash is in the form of Bank accounts, Interest bearing accounts, Gilts even Premium Bonds.

• Property can be in the form of the home where you live or a property you own and rent out, there is also commercial property or investment funds that specialise in Property.

These can become illiquid.

• Bonds - Government & Corporate, usually low risk but that can mean low return.

• Equities are basically shares or funds that invest in the markets and companies • Commodities, there are commodity funds or you can buy tangible items like Gold, Oil or even crops.

The ideal portfolio will cover some or all of the above, depending on your Risk Profile and for someone living in Spain originally from the UK, you might consider having your assets split between Sterling and Euro to help avoid currency risk.

Diversification is really just common sense, as a reasonable spread of assets will potentially limit exposure to crashes and/or volatility during uncertain times. Following the Brexit, Cash and Property look to be being adversely affected whereas Equities are holding (though some sectors like banking and construction have fared worse than others) and some Commodities, like Gold which is seen as a safe haven , has seen both demand for and its price increase.

I have taken on clients over the years who had put all their

eggs in one basket and suffered as a consequence.

There are opportunities out there so try to mitigate risk and go for modest returns. Do not be greedy over the short term and remember: DIVERSIFY as much as possible within your Risk category.

I have been a fully Qualified Financial Adviser for 28 years and also understand the needs of ex-pats and the rules that

apply to ex British living and retiring in Spain so if you need to talk through your own situation then please feel free to call me and we can have a no obligation discussion about the best way forward for your Investments.

If you need advice or if have any questions regarding the above contact me Keith Littlewood DipPFS on 657 684 094 or email keith.littlewood@blacktowerfm.com

The above information was correct at the time of preparation and does not constitute investment advice and you should seek advice from a professional adviser before embarking on any financial planning activity.

BREXIT - AND WHAT IT COULD MEAN FOR BRITISH PROPERTY OWNERS IN SPAIN The United Kingdom’s decision to leave the European Union has raised important questions in regards to how it will affect British buyers of property in Spain or current Spanish property owners.

As a member of the Association of International Property Professionals, Wincham consists of qualified Lawyers, Tax Consultants, Chartered Accountants, Gestores (Qualified Legal Assistants) and Economistas.Using our skills and experience, Wincham are monitoring the situation very closely and will continue to be at the forefront of events as they develop while offering support and expert advice to new and existing clients.

Although there is some uncertainty for Spanish property owners at present, it must be noted that Spain has had a long history of welcoming buyers from overseas. Non-EU buyers are particularly active in the market and enjoy similar rights to EU Nationals. Leaving the EU is highly unlikely to impact the rights of British citizens to buy property in Spain and Spanish property still remains excellent value

for money!!

It should also be pointed out that Trade treaties have operated between the UK and Spain for many years and have existed long before the UK’s entry into the EU in 1973. Accordingly, and certainly for the foreseeable future, no notable changes are expected in the way the UK and Spain interact commercially.

Between our UK and Spanish Offices, Wincham specialise in helping Clients purchase, own, and sell Spanish property either privately or within a UK Limited Company Structure. To inform Buyers and owners of the benefits of owning a Spanish property within a UK Limited Company, please go to www.winchamukcompany.com The United Kingdom will continue to enjoy the benefits of European citizenship for some years, and Wincham anticipate a largely similar deal once Brexit is complete.

A spoonful of sugar

by Jack Troughton JAVEA PLAYERS continued its 40th anniversary celebrations with an ‘everyone welcome’ knees up and a sing-a-long summer show, a tribute to superstar Julie Andrews.

The fun started last Saturday with the party in Plaza Baix in Javea’s Old Town – pictured cutting the birthday cake is Javea Mayor Jose Chulvi with the theatre group’s Chairman Mike Harvey.

And special guests were David, Andrew and Jessica, the children of Javea Players’ founder Janet Phillips, who flew out especially for the celebrations.

In 1976, Janet appealed to fellow expats for anyone interested in starting an amateur drama group – 12 people turned up. Sadly, Janet died suddenly before the curtain up before the first show in May that year; but the double bill ‘Murder

by Request’ and ‘Meet the Family’ went ahead. It was the first of three productions in the first year...the rest is history.

One woman show ‘Truly Andrews’ was performed in the Casa de Cultura this week by the talented Aimi Percival, an enjoyable – and easy to digest - look at the success and life story of the silver-tongued star Julie.

It followed the traditional ‘al fresco’ dinner in Plaza Baix and from the start both Aimi and her audience were in fine voice.

With a minimum of props, Aimi ran through a selection of songs from the musicals that make up the Andrews’ hall of fame – a quick ‘greatest hits’ from The Boyfriend, My Fair Lady, Mary Poppins, and (naturally) The Sound of Music.

Aimi is pictured by Benny Davis singing ‘Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious’ as Dick Van Dyke, from Mary Poppins and complete with ‘mockney’ accent.

Dick Handscombe Practical gardener and author

It is a pity that so much garden water is wasted Entering the hottest time of the year it is unfortunate that many reservoirs that supply house water are at low levels and many natural springs that supplied water for agricultural use for centuries are now dry due to several years of low rain fall.

No doubt many readers reaction to the continuing drought will have been to water more frequently and perhaps turn up the pressure so that the surface of the soil receives more water per minute. I say the soil receives rather than plants receive for in many cases the plants in your garden actually use up very little of your irrigation water, whether you are watering via an irrigation system, hose , watering can or just waiting patiently for the rain. Much of the water is in fact lost or wasted for the following reasonsMost rain water, when it rains, is not collected stored or distributed effectively around the garden.

1. Water runs away from plants across bone dry hard surfaced soil.

2. Water is lost by evaporation from the upper levels of the soil.

3. During dry weather water is sucked sideways by the surrounding soil acting like a dry sponge.

4. In poor soils much water drains quickly down through the soil away from the growing roots.

5. Rain water is not channelled to thirsty plants, bushes and trees.

6. Rain or surplus irrigation water is allowed to run off your land onto adjacent properties.

7. Drought resistant plants are co-planted with thirsty plants so they receive too much water.

8. Many drought resistant plants, shrubs and trees are still being watered years after they established a deep root structure.

9. Short lived thirsty plants are planted up and planted daily.

Unfortunately using more irrigation water to help gardens survive is impossible in some areas as restrictions on garden and agricultural water

needs are already imposed in some areas. But it possible to develop and maintain beautiful and productive gardens with considerably less watering.

It was recognising this that led me a few years ago to compile the book titled ‘How to use less water in your garden – A practical guide to waterwise Mediterranean style gardening’. This is a compilation of some 300 possible actions and a list of some 250 of the most drought resistant plans for Spanish gardens is included..

If you are worried about the amount of water re-

quired to grow summer vegetables start to grow them where they are only in full sun for half the day and in black plastic builders-buckets.

Before sowing seeds or planting plantlets fill the buckets half full with well-rotted manures and then fill up the top half with a water retaining but well-draining rich soil/compost mix. It also helps to mix a little TerraCottem soil improving gel into the soil/compost mix. See www.terracottem.com for full details of the product, and to order an economic 5 kilo box.

This product is in fact very useful when planting up any plant , bush or tree in the garden.

A problem with Microsoft Word How to make it full size again Hi Aunty I have changed the picture on the screen but it is not the full size. There is a black margin on either side of the screen. Please advise how to get the full screen back again.

Many thanks, Ray. Reply: You can change the screen resolution two ways.

Via the Control Panel.

Or by simply right clicking on your desktop, and you should have screen resolution option available.

Select the resolution you require, the one that best suits your monitor.

Hi Aunty My problem relates to Microsoft Word 2013 where every time I open a New Blank Document the curser automatically starts in the centre of the page. I have tried every thing I can think of even to uninstalling office completely cleaning the system of all files and then reinstalling the program. I still have the same even after I installed a new version of Microsoft Office 2016. I know I must be leaving a file behind when uninstalling but, I just cannot find it or which setting in Word I need to change as I just do not know what has changed to cause this problem.

HELP! Regards Peter.

Reply: I would suggest that somehow your template has been changed and saved.

So every time you open Word, the changed template is being used rather than the original.

Normal.dotm is the template upon which all new blank documents are based. It opens whenever you start Microsoft Office Word 2013 and it includes default styles and customizations that control the basic look of your document. Changes you make to Normal.dotm will be applied to documents that you create in the future.

If you delete normal.dotm, the next time you open Word it will look for the file, and when it can’t find it Word will recreate the file in its original default condition.

There are many ways to locate normal.dotm, but if you are in Word 2013, the easiest way is to click the File tab > Open > Computer > Browse.

Open Browse Then, navigate to C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates.

You should see Normal.dotm in the list.

Rename it to something else (just in case), or delete it.

The restart Word and you should have a new template created.

And hope fully all will be back to normal.

WITH A background in family and matrimonial mediation, Life Coach Sara Bell helps Readers with their daily worries. If you are having difficulties with relationships, family, work or any other aspect of your life, then help is at hand.

He’s let himself go

Before we got married, my Fiance had always kept himself trim. We’ve been married for 8 months now, and he is carrying a few extra pounds. I was initially drawn to him for his physique, but now he regularly brings home takeaways, and is drinking more beer. How can I tell him about it without upsetting him?

Contentment after getting married, is a common occurrence. You could try dropping hints, but you might need to be more direct. Tell him that takeaways aren’t that healthy, and you have noticed that he is putting on a few pounds. A treat every now and again is fine, but it’s a slippery slope once you start eating these types of foods regularly. One or two pounds are easy to lose, but one or two stones are not. That’s when it becomes really difficult to shed the excess weight.

You could always say that you want to lose a few pounds yourself (even if you don’t), and suggest you both go on a bit of a diet, and take up some exercise together.

Write to Sara in confidence. A pseudonym will be used if you wish. Sara reads all letters and can give a personal reply. Email your question to agonyaunt@roundtownnews.com or Sara is available for private consultations, telephone 650 054 467.

He can’t forget her My partner and I are both widowed. I am very happy, and every day with him is wonderful, except for one day of the year when my partner insists on spending the anniversary of his wife’s death, on his own. This upsets me greatly, and I find myself feeling very jealous of his late wife. He just leaves the house and comes back without telling me where he’s been. My marriage wasn’t great - I loved my husband in my own way, but I don’t feel I need to commemorate his passing every year.

You’ve both lost your spouse, and everyone grieves differently. Your marriage wasn’t so great, but his may have been different. You’ve both been lucky enough to find love again. You could try telling him how you feel, and at least then your feelings will be out in the open, but I think you should be very gracious here, and grant him this time alone. It’s only one day of the year, and perhaps you could do something enjoyable on that day, so that you are not sitting at home dwelling.

Skip’s Tips – hydrate for health

SKIP ARCHIMEDES continues his lifestyle tips to help look and feel younger with an easy to follow idea – drink more water.

The coach will host a free one day event on the Costa Blanca in October, runs successful ‘mind, body, and soul’ seminars around the world.

Two weeks ago, he introduced RTN readers to his ‘Green Lean Power Juice’. He said: “I very rarely go a day without having a live juice and when I don’t, I really notice the difference; so please keep up the juicing.

“But I’d like to give you another tip that’s even easier to do than making a juice. Most of us are dehydrated which can cause a bunch of problems that we then have to deal with. We can lose 50% of our protein and be fine; we can lose 50% of our glucose and be fine, if we lose 20% of our water we literally die.

“So being hydrated is essential for our well-being. We know nowadays that most teas and coffees have a dehydrating effect on the body and mind; whilst flooding it with acid which can have even more negative effects.

“Starting your day with these won’t give you the best start - your mind is mostly water and the only thing that can hydrate the brain is water. If you start your day with a quarter to half a lemon freshly squeezed into a big glass of water, you’ll ‘break’ your ‘fast’, that’s where the word ‘breakfast’ comes from, with something that hydrates and alkalizes you.”

And he said continuing to drink water for the rest of the day “will keep you focused and functioning well. It may sound simple, but don’t under estimate the power of this simple tip”.

YOGA Skip also recommends a 20 minute Yoga workout – which can be watched at the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBq61uznfGY “Yoga really does have so many benefits and will help to keep you looking and feeling young,” he said.

And he recommended three Yoga poses “that will help bring balance, harmony and strength to you”.

The positions, explained in the workout, are the ‘Warrior 2’ to feel strong and balanced, the ‘Upward Dog’, and a ‘Basic Triangle’.

Skip said: “When doing any stretching, don’t force anything. Get into the positions and take three long, deep, calming breaths then go to the next one. Each time you exhale relax into a deeper stretch.

“Enjoy relieving tension through these basic poses. If you would like me to guide you through a few more yoga stretches to really give your body a great little gift then simply go to the link”.

Skip added: “Here’s to the healthier, happier, younger looking and younger feeling you. Again I challenge you to try them, because you will feel and look better, which can only be a good thing.”

“I’m so looking forward to back to Spain to give you a live experience of the transformational I share can help you.”

The whole day is completely free and is on October 1st so if you would like to register then simply go to: http://skiparchimedes.com/foreveryoung

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Keep to your pathway and stick to your guns! Let nobody tell you what to do right now because you know you are on to a winner. You are highly charged but realistic and empowered, and if you don’t do what you know you have to, there may not be a better opportunity. Mars encounters Kora and trines Mercury opening all channels of communication!

Squaring on Ceres your planetary leader Venus takes timely advice from a stoic Ceres. This underlines the routines and plans that you already have in motion and supports them.

Though you may have strayed from your first good intentions this is not a time to merely tread water when there is currently a rhyme and reason for everything you do!

The Mercury square on Uranus midweek stirs you and subtly prepares you for what is yet to come. Life is truly a voyage and you are good to go right now; this is not a time to doubt in any way. Now that your curiosity is aroused accept that Uranus brings changes in the very areas that you need to restructure. Be sure to be yourself, the best is yet to come!

The Moon’s phase currently supports your subconscious needs, so nothing needs to be swept under the carpet when it comes to bringing yourself to higher levels. Trust that your complex, but diverse inner thoughts can bring a dream into a reality and see you where you should be which is not currently where you are, or who you want to be.

Venus enters midweek and brings love and passion into a relationship that may be starting to derail. Be sure that what you get is what you want, and if necessary thrash things out so that you better know where you are. Cards on the table show that you are well on the way to make a decision that will finally eliminate all those debilitating doubts and fears.

Stop waiting for something to go wrong. Leo is working magic around you, and though current events may seem to be too good to be true, accept that you are getting no more than you deserve. You put a lot into all that you do, and that means that is about time that things went right for you. Stay focussed and charged yes, but relax and chill too!

As the Goddess Venus enters into Leo there is an acceptance that so many things appear to be not what they really are.

Leo works best with the ego, however, and ensures that when it comes to forging a future you have done and dusted Email your letters to me at: kennycorris@roundtownnews.com your preparations. This doesn’t allow for the special times, which for you, are just around that corner and to enjoy

Count your blessings because you made a soul investment back in the past and now seems to be as good a time as any to reap all benefits. You are strong now in your psychic energies which appear to be ready to help you through a time of change and the elevation of new energies. You are more, much more than you think that you are!

The Jupiter sextile with the Sun heralds the start of what will be a busy week for you. The many irritating niggles you experience during the next few days are just sent to test you, and will be quickly and effectively resolved. The far bigger picture is the reward that you receive for services of loving care to someone who needed you to be there for them.

You have been strangely moody as of late, and though you may have the best of reasons it is high time to move on and put your energies into something that needs your expertise.

Your creativity often flows in circles and now is the time to leave the lower ebb and rise to the tide of new and exciting ways of using your talents for the good of all.

You benefit greatly from the midweek square between your planetary leader, Uranus, and a scheming Mercury. You have to be your own inspiration this week as you are left to make some changes on a work level. It doesn’t hurt to show others what you can do, and to warn them that above all you are not to be messed with, both now or ever!

Clear instructions are what is needed. In taking on something beware that somewhere along the line there very well may be a hidden agenda behind a request you will take to the heart. Hating to say no, you will always come to a compromise, but it isn’t selfish to think of yourself for a change, and to do what you deeply know is right for you too.

Kenny, I want to have a grumble, but there are so many people who have much more need than I do in this World, though this is cold comfort!

Joan K.

Joan we all complain from time to time. The mere knowledge that we can express our feelings is often enough to resolve the situation; but sometimes it isn’t. I know you don’t want to make a mountain over a molehill, but if there is something that you have a strong feeling about it isn’t wrong to share it. What is bad is to brush things under the carpet, or even worse to pretend that all is well, when you know very well that it isn’t! That hurts. Externalise what you have to say and don’t hold onto it, even if you think that someone won’t like what you have to say. Feel free to express things the way that they are and know that release does help. I promise you!!

If It’s Your Birthday This Week

Subtle energies mean that everything is really there for the taking but awaiting your permission. Whilst you gravitate to the basics, it is the high reaching levels of your own abilities that should attract and inspire you during this changing year ahead.

Who said there´s no love in Hollywood?

Kate Hudson is the daughter of Goldie Hawn and Bill Hudson who was part of the musical-comedy trio The Hudson Brothers. However in the early 80´s the couple divorced and shortly after that Goldie and Kurt Russell became an item, but they have never married with Goldie saying “we just love being with each other and see no need to add anything to that,”… how cool is that!

Kate was out and about last week promoting cartoon feature film ´Kung Fu Panda 3, ´ in which she voices ribbon-dancing panda Mei Mei, and whilst speaking to Wonderwall.com revealed how much she loved 1981 Disney cartoon ´The Fox and the Hound.

Kate said while listing the movies she adored during her childhood, “it’s funny because when I was a little girl and I didn’t realize that Kurt , my dad, was a voice in The Fox and the Hound.” Yes Kate and actor brother Oliver Hudson both refer to Kurt Russell as dad, with Kate vocalising how deep the bond goes by saying “This is a man who made his family his number one priority his whole life, he never missed a school play, a soccer game, a hockey game, a dance recital, the list goes on and on. No matter what he was doing in his busy life, he always showed up. Not because he had to, but because there was no other place on earth he would rather be than with his family. We felt the purity of that our whole childhood and my gratitude for his love is immeasurable,” … Wow! These words deeply moved me when I first read them … and they´ve just got me again. Kate was just 2 years old when ´The Fox and The Hound´ came out, so it’s no surprise she has only recently found out her ´Dad´ voiced the adult hound in the movie, as I´m sure the family didn´t sit round the fire with their cup of cocoa and dunking their digestives whilst discussing all the movies they´ve been in. Kate spoke of the other animated movies she loved saying “When I was little, ‘Cinderella’ was the big one; I also liked ‘Bedknobs and Broomsticks,’ and ‘The Never Ending Story,’ my generation wasn’t fully animated, I loved the world of half animation.” And we´re all loving you Kate.

Walt Disney´s house in Chicago is currently being fully restored and 90 year old Dick Van Dyke took the opportunity to mark the occasion with an impromptu singalong in the front garden. Nicolas DeGrazia posted a video on Facebook with the caption: ‘He marches out on the steps of Walt Disney’s birthplace and says “Hi! I’m what’s left of Dick Van Dyke!’

Then he busts out laughing.” Excellent! Although Dick was slated for his dodgy cockney accent in Mary Poppins he led the crowd singing ´Let’s Go Fly a Kite´ from the movie. Video maker Nicholas said “the guy is 90 years old and running around and skipping with a huge smile on his face, amazing,’ Dick’s definitely still got it. Watch Dick Van Dyke lead ‘Mary Poppins’ sing-along with fans.

British comedian/actor Simon Pegg recently appeared on The One Show to promote the Star Trek: Beyond. The interview was going great with Simon oozing his natural charm, and showing why he is getting so much work of late, Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation alongside Tom Cruise an example. He said “It’s a timely movie as Idris Elba, who plays Krall, is a sort of anti-federationist, he doesn’t like the idea of the federation, he hates the idea of all these planets working together in harmony, and sort of moving forward,” he then paused before adding “so the villain of Star Trek: Beyond is basically Boris Johnson!”

Mr Ling tweeted ´I nearly drowned in my cuppa when he said that! Boris brought down a peg or three there.

When Coldplay were booked to play Glastonbury this year peeps said at the time ´we want our money back´ and ´I´ve not bought a ticket to go fall asleep.´ I´m sure this information filtered back to singer Chris Martin and the group, as they pulled off the smartest of moves by getting Barry Gibb to join them onstage to do a few tunes and what a winner it proved to be. Before you watch the video let me tell you what´s happened since Barry did the show. The legendary Bee Gee has sealed a deal with Columbia Records and will release his first album with them, ´In The Now´ later this year. Barry said ‘This is a dream come true for me.

It’s a new chapter in my life.” In your face you haters! Coldplay - Stayin’ Alive (feat. Barry Gibb) (Glastonbury 2016)

Daniel Radcliffe was born in Fulham, London and broke into movies in the most spectacular way when he was just 10 years old. He´s now played Harry Potter eight times and with a five year gap opening up since his last ´Potter´ outing it would seem the franchise is done and dusted. Speaking to the Radio Times on playing our favourite wizard again he said “It would depend on the script, the circumstances would have to be pretty extraordinary, but then I´m sure Harrison Ford said that with Han Solo and look what happened there!” On his well-documented problems with alcohol Daniel also said “my drinking was from a fear of having to return to reality after the films ended,” heartfelt stuff indeed. Hands up those who want Daniel back as a wizard?

Jeff Lynne and Electric Light Orchestra played the Sunday afternoon Legends slot at Glastonbury, but it nearly didn´t happen. Jeff was flown in by helicopter, and on the thousands of people he saw below said “when I saw the whole thing I couldn’t believe it, I was like, ‘let’s turn round quick, there’s too many people!’ I couldn’t really handle it.” Jeff was of course able to calm his nerves to perform one of the sets of the weekend.

“Once we got on it was fabulous. It was just a great end to an amazing tour. We did 19 shows and sold them all out in big arenas, so I can’t complain about anything right now.” Check out this remarkable handmade video Jeff Lynne’s ELO - Mr. Blue Sky - Glastonbury 2016

Basic Spanish for everyday needs

by Jane Cronin

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Our english accent Part two

I hope you have spent the last week doing your mouth exercises, including that “tr” sound at the front of your mouth which is one of those give away differences between a Spanish and an English accent. I mentioned at the end of the last article that there is another important difference between English and Spanish pronunciation, and that is what we are going to concentrate on today.

The basic issue lies in the fact that in the English language we pronounce things very differently from the way we think we pronounce them. In particular we alter sounds and also insert sounds to make words link together more easily, and we are generally completely unaware of doing it. There are many examples of this, in fact it is a huge subject of study in itself, but here are a few examples of what I mean.

Let’s start with two of the most basic words in English “I” and “am”. When we put these two words together, we either contract them to “I’m”, or we insert an extra sound. Say “I am” to yourself at a normal speed and you may well find you are actually saying “I-y-am” (inserting the “y” sound).

We need go no further than “you are” to find another example, but with a different sound inserted. “You are” said normally sounds like “you-w-are”, in other words we insert the “w” sound. The reason why we insert a “y” in one case and a “w” in the other is to do with the shape of our mouths at the particular moment of speech. Now think of this little phrase “law and order”. Do you really say what you read, or does it sound more like “law-r-and order”, inserting a “r” sound?

Going back to our verb “to be” for a moment – what sound to you say between “he is”? and another thought – how to do you say “drawing” – the chances are that most, if not all the readers of this article actually say “draw-r-ing”. Now all these sounds probably sound completely natural and normal to us; in fact, it is possible that you cannot hear them unless you really concentrate, as we make them completely unconsciously.

You may think that these are subtle differences, and in a way they are, but these are the things that give us our unmistakable accent and at times can make us difficult to understand.

As a final thought – put yourself in the position of a Spanish person trying to understand you when you say you have lost your “hambag”. Yes, we do some very strange things with words – it was only Lady Bracknell who ever said “h-a-n-d-ba-g” properly.

The problem is that, equally unconsciously, we bring these “sound insertions” into our pronunciation of Spanish. Here is one example that I hear quite often. When we say numbers, for example “treinta y uno”, I often hear students saying “treinta-ry-uno”. When I correct them they usually have trouble hearing what I am correcting! The same mistake goes for all the numbers, obviously.

We also get caught out with vowel combinations like “ea” and “ae”. These are “pure” vowels which move straight from one to the other, whereas we tend to put a “y” sound in between. When I had a language academy in the north of Spain I had a secretary called “Bea” (short for Beatriz). At first I called her “Bella” or “Beya”, unconsciously inserting a “y” sound in her name. When she first corrected me I couldn’t hear the difference between “Bea” and “Bella”. Eventually I could, and realized I had been calling her “beautiful” (bella) instead of her name. The “ae” combination appears in some verbs – for example “to fall” which is “caer”. We should pronounce the “a” followed by the “e” directly, and not put a “y” there – it is not “cayer”.

WHEN WAS THE LAW PASSED that small children on planes sitting behind me are allowed to kick the stuffing out of the back of my seat.

What are they doing on the plane in the first place?

Haven’t they got chimneys to sweep? No! They are off & away to far flung exotic holiday destinations, thanks to some ‘right on’ judge, saying it’s your incontrovertible human right to take your child out of school during term time to satisfy your own selfish needs. How times have changed (cue Hovis music).All we had was a donkey ride in Rhyl – mind you, dear old Dobbin could get a game for the current England shower.

Flying is not for me – it goes back to my time working in the far reaches of Western Australia. At the end of each month we’d fly down to Perth in a twin prop ‘puddle hopper.’ On one such jolly an engine packed up & I freaked out – stuttering to the butch Ozzie type next to me “Hhhhow ffffar can we ffffly on one engine?” Bruce laconically replied, “All the way to the scene of the crash I reckon. Should get there 20 minutes ahead of the flying doctor.” Cheers Cobber – very puckish I’m sure.

The worst airline I’ve ever had the misfortune to board was ….....got to be a tad careful here, so I’ll give it to you in anagram form (go on crack it – what else is on your busy agenda?). ‘AILING RADAR USE.’ We flew out of a Far East rinky-dink airport – where they’d lost my luggage before I got on the plane – well I say luggage – more Roy Cropper than Louis Vuitton. Prior to taking to the wide blue yonder, us passengers had to shoo a pack of wild boar off the runway (in case you’ve never confronted a wild boar, you do not shoo. Cat’s you shoo, wild boars just snort, sneer & carry on boaring). While we were down on the tarmac, the pilot got us to check for oil leaks & kick the tyres. Bound for Australia it was obviously the first trip for Captain Clueless – he came on the intercom with this gem “Ladies & Gentlemen. If you look out of the starboard window,that’s the left hand side, no no silly me, the right hand side, always get those 2 mixed up. We are approaching what we think is Australia. Is it sort of - kidney shaped?”

Cracked the anagram? Any traumatic travel tales? Get in touch; ashleybobble@hotmail.com

Maple smoked ribs Sticky, sweet, savoury, fall off the bone; everything smoked ribs should be. By using both the maple plank and the maple syrup you achieve a deep and unforgettable flavor.

INGREDIENTS 2 lb pork side ribs 1 cup pure maple syrup 3 tbsp frozen orange juice concentrate 3 tbsp ketchup 2 tbsp soy sauce 1 tbsp Dijon mustard 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 1 tsp curry powder 1 clove garlic, minced 2 spring onions, minced 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds Other Equipment Maple planks DIRECTIONS 1. Soak maple planks in sink or clean bucket filled with water for at least 1 hour. (this can be done during first stage of cooking the ribs) 2. Light one side of your barbecue,

and preheat until temperature gauge shows 350°F. Place ribs meat side up in a roasting pan.

Cover pan tightly with foil and place on the unlit side of your barbecue. Bake for 1 1/4 hours. This step can also be done in the oven.

3. In a saucepan over MEDIUM heat combine maple syrup, orange juice concentrate, ketchup, soy sauce, mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Stir in curry powder, garlic and spring onions. Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

4. Remove ribs from roasting pan, and baste completely meat side and bone side with still warm sauce. Retain 1/2 of sauce for additional basting. Place ribs on soaked maple planks bone side

down. Put the planks with the ribs on them on one side of the barbecue with LOW heat setting directly underneath them. Turn the other side of the barbecue to HIGH and close lid. Keep temperature around 350°F. Planks should begin to smoke within a few minutes, and produce a sweet fragrant smoke in your barbecue. Adjust the amount of smoke you would like to add by increasing/ decreasing direct heat underneath the planks, and opening/closing the lid. Do not allow planks to catch fire. Allow ribs to cook on the planks for 25 minutes.

Use remaining sauce to baste ribs several times throughout cooking. Remove planks with ribs on them from the grill and place the planks directly on a plate or tray for serving.

life&leisure #advertising feature ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// What does it mean implants without surgery?

At Sdent Dental Clinic we think that dental implants are a great alternative to loose, poor fitting dentures which can cause embarrassing situations. Implants bond to the jaw, much like the root of a natural tooth, and permanently replace a lost tooth.

With the use of advanced 3D technology, guided surgery allows us to place the implants in a previously planned area in its exact place and with greater accuracy. This approach has significantly simplified the procedure. This approach has significantly simplified the procedure.

How do you put in the implant without surgery?

Without cutting, without stitchig and whitout bleeding.

With exact measurements calculated by advanced 3D technology, and no need to cut through the gums, sutures ( or stitches ) are hardly ever needed. The dental implant program used in Sdent Dental Clinic is so exact that all of the gum tissue that is extracted during the treatment is replaced with the implant. This coupled with the high quality of our German made implants, guarantees good results.

Is it a painful procedure?

Since the gum are not cut, the intervention is much smoother that the traditional one, and it is less painful than a tooth extraction.

It is only necessary to use a local anesthetic and patients are surprised at how quick and painless the procedure is.

What other advantages has?

It saves a lot of time. A major concern of patients is the idea of having their mouths open for a long time throughout the surgery.

It prevents tissue trauma, bleeding and post-surgical discomfort.

Recovery is quick (back to normal after the surgery).

It allows surgeons to put crowns or dentures in the most ideal and aesthetic positions.

-In two weeks we´ll talk about aesthetic venneers and whitening. You can send any questions to: info@sdent.es

Golf Delux

“Adventure-Golf”, something in between normal golf and mini golf, has gotten very popular. Just last year there were almost 30 000 registered players at the Golf Delux golf course in Torre Pacheco. You don’t need to be a pro to play, because this is for both experts and amateurs.

It’s been about five years since the Swedish owner Ralf Karlsson got the idea to invest almost 7 million Swedish crowns into the golf course. He placed his trust in and bet on something entirely new in Spain, and has achieved great success.

Ralf Karlsson told RTN - I travelled around a lot with my caravan and visited many camping sights which had mini golf courses and a few had adventure golf courses. That gave me the idea of starting something similar in Spain, says Karlson who’s been living in Spain since 2006. He contacted the swedish firm City Golf in Örnsköldsvik, who are specialists at building advanced mini golf courses. Then the next task was to find a suitable building plot in Spain.

Golf Deluxe has become quite known to the British, Scandinavians and other Europeans living in the surrounding areas. The yearly record for for the total number of players being 29 600 and with a daily record of 220 players.

Adventure golf is an evolved version of mini golf. The course is bigger and there are natural obstacles with small hills, bunkers and such like. Adventure golf is played with the same clubs and balls as mini golf however it is played using normal golf rules.

The course has small bunkers and water obstacles. It is a very demanding course to play at and the course record is 38 puts. It is a hard record to beat however some players are very eager to try, some even train 3 times a week, often with their own clubs so that one day they might just beat the record.

Almost half of the players are active golf players, Says Karlsson. They compete with themselves or arrange small private tournaments. Golf Deluxe arranges a big tournament every october, but are always willing to help players to challenge themselves or others in a tailored competition. The course is great for all the family and is meant to be for everyone, both adults and children.

In July and August the course will be open from 10 am to 10 pm, with food will be available all day. There is a special menu for 13 euro during the summer. Visit the website “ http:// www.golfdelux.eu/ “ where you can find more information or see our advert below

Rocket’s golf society by patricia thompson It was a down to Murcia, Molinas de Segura to be precise and Altorreal Golf. Work that has been going on the course, which is proving its worth, the course is busy and the Society pricing sensible which makes it a venue that should be on the list of ‘must play’. Congratulations’, to all of the green keeping and course staff at Altorreal.

Have to say it was nice to hear Rocket announce it was a Stableford competition as we seem to have been going through the Medal syndrome of late. Despite all the good conditions and Stableford competition, the scoring was not as good as normal, well except for SArthur and his mate Ken! RESULTS GOLD CATEGORY 1ST: Arthur Williams 33 points 2nd: Rod Smith 28 points 3rd: Ron Swift 27 points

Raising the roof

by Jack Troughton

MUSICAL THEATRE group Studio32 made a record 3,500€ of donations after its recent run of hit musical ‘Fiddler on the Roof’ played to sellout audiences.

Studio32’s chairman Philip Wilson is pictured at San Fulgencio Town Hall presenting a cheque for 2,070€ to Benjamin Villena Rodriguez, who heads the town’s Alzheimer’s Society.

He thanked Philip for the ongoing support for a charity helping in the community for families and individuals dealing with the disease.

Philip explained: “Studio32 was set up three years ago to bring high quality full-scale musical theatre to the Costa Blanca and through doing so, enable us to support local charities. Our membership has grown rapidly in that time, but new people are always welcome.

“Everyone in the company worked extremely hard to make this show a great success and I’m proud of them all. It has enabled us to make more money than ever before.”

The theatre company will next produce

Children’s charity says ‘thanks’ THE BUTTERFLY Children Charity, DEBRA, has thanked Nigel Hopkins and Melody Makers International for a donation of 1,909€.

Skoda Fabia Estate WHEN A friend needs a shipment of books collecting from the docks it is extremely convenient that I am testing the new Skoda Fabia Estate.

Athough only a small car, it has a surprisingly large boot, large enough in fact to swallow 1,000 books, once I’ve loaded each of the 13 sizeable and fairly heavy cartons.

One of the rear seats has to be pushed down to accommodate two of the cartons but Heidi (2) is quite happy sitting beside them in her car seat.

We have started the process of selling our house and although we started throwing out much of the stuff we have accumulated over the years, there has still been enough to fill the Skoda’s boot. That boot is also fitted with an easy to operate cover so that its contents can be hidden from prying eyes.

This is truly a versatile vehicle because it is large enough for a family of four with plenty of legroom fore and aft. This Skoda really does rise to most challenges a family will throw its way.

One minute it will be a reliable commuter, the next it could carry a kayak or bikes on the roof thanks to its roof bars and then of course it is a useful load-lugger.

Add to this the fact that its tiddly little 1.2-litre petrol engine returns on average around 60mpg. Despite its small engine it is still quite swift reaching 60mph from standstill in just 9.6secs, going on to a 124mph top speed.

Not so long ago you would never have thought ‘It feels like an Audi,’ but it does because not only does it look classy with its clean lines and attractive design it feels well put together and there’s a good quality interior.

I am testing the SE L version, which comes with a list of features as long as your arm, including 16 inch alloy wheels, acoustic rear parking sensors, black roof rails and tyre pressure monitoring. This model only has electric front windows which means that the little urchins in the rear can wind the windows down.

Designing a car interior is a difficult thing to do successfully because it needs to be hardwearing but also comfortable and sophisticated if it is ever going to woo a buyer. It is always interesting to see what new ideas designers come up with and what is carried over from other vehicles. There is brushed aluminium on the dashboard, a growing fashion, particularly in Audis. There are plenty of cubbyholes and pockets for odds and ends, but the little rubbish bin the driver’s door

with its tiny sandwich bag sized bin bag is, in my opinion, taking things a little bit too far. Whether I would use the little pockets on the side of the front seats to store pens or not, I am not sure. They might be handy for sweets on a long journey but, if forgotten about, the sweets could melt and ruin the upholstery. The black upholstery incorporates funky white patterns that liven it up. What this Skoda scores highly on is its load carrying ability and clever use of storage space; there are even storage compartments under the front seats.

I find the six speed manual gearbox generally a decent unit but, on occasions, I do find myself stirring custard. I also find that the cruise control mounted on the stalk to the left of the steering wheel is not one of the more user-friendly I have come across and is pretty fiddly, but it is a competent motorway cruiser and the seats are fairly supportive.

“It’s difficult to imagine a better car for a young family than the Skoda Fabia Estate,” writes Parkers, the car experts.

Skoda Fabia SE L 1.2 TSI 110PS From £12,460 0-60mph: 9.6secs Top speed: 124mph Power: 110bhp Economy: 58.9mpg
