Are we really properly prepared or informed in the event of an eruption?

he 6th Cities on Volcanoes Conference, one of the largest conferences of the year in Tenerife, attracted hundreds of delegates from all over the world to the conference centre in Puerto de la Cruz.

Canarian volcanologists worked hard to bring the biennial conference to the islands, to help underline the general lack of preparation in the islands in the face of future eruptions. The Canaries are volcanic islands and sooner or later a new eruption will break out somewhere. Out of the seven islands, only Tenerife has a fully drawn up emergency plan and experts emphasise that even that has not yet been tested or

published. Many communities in the world live with volcanoes, but sadly, all too often, familiarity breeds contempt and the possible risks, as well as the possible opportunities are ignored. At a seminar for the island’s press, only two representatives of the majority Spanish press were present, indicating that they either already know it all, or they are not interested. Reductions in the conference fee of over 70 per cent for teachers saw less than 10 Canarian education specialists take up the opportunity. Volcanoes are part of nature, they are expected to provide up to 10 per cent of the world’s energy in the future and without them the Canary Islands would not exist. A volcanic eruption is

not catastrophic, a catastrophe is what is caused when there is improper vigilance of volcanic activity, no evacuation plans or plans are incorrectly carried out. A volcanic hazard is what happens when people settle too close to volcanoes, and danger occurs when they are without the knowledge or means to protect themselves. During the early days of the conference, which continues as we go to print, several worrying pieces of information were revealed. Key installations such as the new northern hospital and the possible Granadilla port which is supposed to take over all of Tenerife’s future shipping are both in possible risk areas.

Living on a fault line

Are we really properly prepared or informed in the event of an eruption? Continued from page 3 Every eruption is different and since, over the millennia, the Canaries has experienced all of the various types of dangers associated with volcanoes: explosions, ash flows and showers, mud flows, landslides, shifts in earth levels, lava flows, poisonous gasses and tsunamis, it is impossible to predict the type of eruption that will happen here next.

of up to 10 metres in depth have been measured from previous tinerfeñan eruptions for example. The calming inference that seemed to be coming from the authorities after the seismic mini-crisis in 2004, that a couple of bulldozers could get in front of the lava flow and cleave a safe path for any danger, would seem to have no basis in scientific fact. If a major eruption occurs, water supplies will be widely contaminated and power supplies and transport inevitably heavily affected. Also worr ying is that one of the two monitoring bodies in the islands does not share its information with the rest of the scientific community, meaning that frequently expensive and scarce equipment

he level is double the national average and shows an increase of 18.8 per cent since April 2008, amounting to some 14,000 over 18s. The most worrying aspect is that the level of education of those choosing to go elsewhere is extremely high, a phenomenon the sociologists call a brain drain.

A is duplicated in potential hot spots. That political or personal interest should allowed to be put above the safety and welfare of the public who pay for this equipment and personnel is scandalous and should be stopped now. Experts agree that the Canaries is “due” an eruption, but they cannot predict where or when and “due” would seem to be an elastic statement too for a science that deals in millennia rather than decades. The longest period that the Canaries has gone within recorded historical times without an eruption is 85 years, but the average time between volcanic episodes is 40 years (the last eruption was in 1971 in La Palma). We were also told that the space between highly explosive eruptions is around 200,000 years and since it is 188,000 years approximately since the last one, we are also “due” another soon, however no scientist can or will put his hand on his heart and declare when. What we have to do is to be properly informed and prepared. Risk areas need to be

Whilst previous Canarian eruptions caused little loss of life, history has only recorded 23 deaths from volcanic eruptions in the Islands over the last five centuries, the amount of risk is correlated exactly to the population levels which now stand at the highest saturation level ever, particularly along the coast where most lava, mud and ash flows would be led by the various ravines.

identified in all the islands, the areas kept a close watch on and plans drawn up. People need to know what to do and a proper system set up to sound the alarm, somewhat more complicated given the multi-linguistic nature of the resident and tourist population of the Islands.

round half of the emigrants choose to resettle in Europe, with the USA, UK, France, Italy and Germany continuing to be popular and Portugal increasing in demand along with previously less frequent choices such as Norway and Sweden. Many are also choosing developing countries such as those in Latin America where there are ample opportunities for investigation in scientific fields.

Politics

Caesar’s wife

A row is building up over a payment of €1,200 to the tailor of the Canarian President’s wife.

On the plus side in Tenerife at least, we are lucky to have two airports, with the probability that at least one should be able to continue to operate if there is a problem here. The new Canarian Volcano Institute is also finally to be set up and will be sited in Puerto de la Cruz.

So, failing other information, if there is a problem where do we go to escape immediate danger? According to Ray Cas, an Australian volcanology professor with a number of years of experience in Tenerife, the safest areas will probably be Teno and Anaga, although they too could experience some fallout.

Unemployment

More information next edition.

ngela Mena, who is also a councillor for Santa Cruz and head of their department for women, apparently ordered an outfit for a special occasion. She was invited to be the ‘godmother’ of a particular group of Spain’s troops and present the flag, an act which she seems to feel gave her the right to charge the Canarian Government for her outfit of the day. To add insult to injury, the outfit worn by Ms. Mena whilst “representing” the Canaries, included a tall peineta or wide comb and mantilla, Andalusian style.

Jobless breather

The steep rise in unemployment in the Canaries appears to have been halted, although analysts warn the respite may only be momentary.

he latest monthly jobless figures show that the rate fell by 0.5 per cent in May compared to April. The drop, well below the falls seen in regions such as the Balearics (-7.6 per cent) or La Rioja (-5 per cent), leaves the total number registered as out of work in the Canaries at just under 265,600. The overall 12-month rate since May 2009 has risen by 6.5 per cent, half of the average increase seen across Spain.

Rural award

Making a difference

A Tenerife Cabildo prize for contribution to the rural areas of the island has this year been awarded to Juan Antonio Jorge Peraza.

Juan Antonio (centre) with his friend, Chef Juan Carlos and Vilaflor Mayor Manolo Fumero

e came up with the idea of promoting various rural areas through a recreation of island traditions and explaining various historic uses of island products during organised walks such as the popular walk through the heights between Santiago del Teide and Garachico, the almond fair in Aripe, the traditions day in Taucho, the threshing in San José de los Llanos and the almond, pitch, stone and honey routes. His, “locuras” as he terms them are immensely popular and are an unqualified success.A well deserved award for someone whose enviable ability is not only based on his enthusiasm and commitment but his skill in inspiring the same enthusiasm and commitment in others.

Politics

President defends decision

Canarian president Paulino Rivero used the extensive media coverage of the Canary Islands Day celebrations to justify his party’s decision not to topple the Spanish government in the recent austerity package vote in Parliament.

panish PM José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero would have faced a no confidence vote if Rivero’s Canarian Coalition Party had joined almost every other party in voting against the package.

uerteventura’s expat community is mourning the loss of one of its most popular members, who died recently and has left behind a legacy of happy memories among his family and friends.

“Tony was an incorrigible smoker. Despite his illness, he would not give up so I arranged with the funeral directors to place in the coffin a packet of cigarettes and his lighter to accompany him on his final journey. “His smoking was matched only by his tea-drinking, which everyone who knows us can testify, especially those he pressganged into supplying him with his beloved Sainsbury’s tea bags from home when they flew over on June 11th.

Speaking in Telde, Rivero said the decision by the CC’s two MPs to abstain, and thus give Zapatero a majority of one, was an “act of great responsibility” for the sake of the country. He revealed that Zapatero had called him personally on the eve of the crucial vote to enlist his suport. Ironically, Rivero is in a coalition in the Canaries with Spain’s main opposition party, the PPP.

The death of Tony Tree, one of the biggest fans of the island he fell in love with after a holiday many years ago, has prompted a flood of tributes from people known to him personally, as well as others who only knew him as ‘Woody’, his pseudonym on the very active Fuerteventura Forum, to which he was a regular contributor with tips and advice on virtually everything under the sun (literally). Tony’s partner of 16 years, Sandie Roe, revealed to Island Connections that his coffin contained a few surprises when he was laid to rest on 24 May after losing his brave fight against stomach cancer.

“Needless to say the teabags are in there as well to keep him company” said Sandie, who is still coming to terms with filling what she describes as “the gaping hole” left in her life by the man she met 16 years ago after answering a newspaper ad in Great Yarmouth. Among other curiosities in the coffin are two folded photographs of Sandie (“so I can keep an eye on him if he misbehaves up there”), his favourite glasses,

a few butterflies (another of Tony’s passions) and a memorial card for which he himself wrote the words shortly before his death. Although Tony Tree’s funeral was a low-key affair, Sandie and his surviving children felt his passing should be marked a short time later by one of his favourite events, a lively barbecue at home for relatives and friends on.

standing at the barbecue” said Sandie.

“I can’t think of a more appropriate way to say farewell to him. He was absolutely barbecue-mad and we had one at home on his 58th birthday on 31 March, even though he could not eat a thing because of his stomach cancer. It is the way people will remember him: shirtless with his glass raised

“Tony would offer to pick people up from the airport, but not tell them he did not drive over here. I was his driver so it meant an airport trip for me!” Tony’s untiring efforts to bail people out prompted the following moving tribute from Forum regular ‘Falkirkdan’ (Danny Callaghan):

The island has lost one of its stalwarts, who left no stone unturned to find information requested by Forum visitors needing help. He would never give up on the computer until he found the information he was looking for to answer a query. “It was his nature never to let anyone down.

The hole left in the lives of Sandie, his four daughters and Sandie’s son Barry, is matched by the gap left on Tony’s favourite spot on the island: his own patch on the sand at Corralejo, where he brought a totally different meaning to the term beach bum, as Sandie jokingly recalls. “He would often get the bus from our home in Costa Antigua to Puerto del Rosario and then another one all the way up to Corralejo, where he sunbathed on the same spot all time time. The first thing he would do would be to slip off his trunks to get his behind a good tan, even though it made for some embarrassing moments when people he knew would turn up to say hello and he had to frantically put the swimming trunks back on to get up for a chat”. That was Tony, RIP.

Tourism recovery

Fee fraud

Irish Con men tourism arrested targeted by Lanzarote

Frontur

Volcanic dust cloud

Ash cloud decline

Two men who allegedly conned dozens of people in Fuerteventura with fake job offers have been arrested by police on the island.

Lanzarote’s tourism authorities have set themselves the job of restoring Irish visitor numbers to their former levels following the noticeable decline during the first part of the year.

igures released by the local Board show that although the overall fall in holidaymakers in the first four months of 2010, when 481,000 visitors flew into Lanzarote, stands at two per cent compared to the same period in 2009, in the case of Irish tourists the drop is over 21 per cent.

spokeswoman said an all-out effort was needed to recuperate the third most important market for the island after the UK and Germany, both of which have picked up again this year, despite the disruption caused by the ash cloud recently.

he pair, who posed as managers of a new company, posted ads in shop windows and cybercafés inviting applications for wellpaid jobs as night-club staff and cleaners for premises to be opened in various parts of Fuerteventura. After meeting up with applicants over coffee they asked them to fill in forms and pay sums of up to €70 as a “processing fee” for registering them for National insurance contributions.

hecks of company records revealed that the new firm was fictitious and police officers set up a sting operation by answering the ads. The two men were arrested as soon as they requested money from the detectives as part of the application process. Police believe the pair may have carried out similar cons in other parts of the Canaries, particularly neighbouring Lanzarote.

The full extent of the ash cloud chaos a few weeks ago on tourism in the Canaries has emerged with the publication of the visitor numbers for April.

Jet2.com announces strategy

nglish low cost airline Jet2.com has been searching for solutions to the problems caused by the dust cloud from the eruption of the volcano in Iceland.

Seeking to allow their passengers to continue travelling, despite the cloud of volcanic dust, the airline has announced the following strategy: * Aircraft would fly at a higher altitude over areas affected by the dust cloud, despite the fact that this will cause higher fuel consumption * A specific SMS service will keep passengers informed regarding cancellations, delays and the replacement of flights by buses

* Special plans are being made to create coordination centres for aircraft and road transport throughout Europe * Agreements are being sought with European transport companies to enable Jet2. com to use hundreds of buses within a short time from the cancellation of flights * A plan is being created to get passengers home by air, land or sea in the case of flight cancellations In the meantime, Jet2.com advise that their passengers should make their mobile phone numbers available at the time of making flight reservations so that they can be kept informed, and advise checking the company website, www.jet2.com for updates regarding specific flights.

According to the latest Frontur survey, which calculates incoming passengers from other countries, the Canaries suffered a drop of just over 15 per cent in holidaymakers compared to the same month in 2009, with Britain and Germany the markets worst affected by the disruption. The number of UK holidaymakers fell by 27 per cent due to the prolonged closures of airports throughout the country. The massive disruption, which saw tens of thousands of passengers stranded both here and in their airports of origin, has highlighted the reliance of the Canaries’ tourist industry on air travel. At the height of the crisis, the regional authorities put in place contingency plans to charter several ferries to ship tourists to southern Spain, a journey of more than two days, to enable them to travel onwards by road.

It was refreshing to see the mayor and councillors shifting tables and chairs and washing pots with the rest of the volunteers, not even looking around for someone else to do it but rolling up their sleeves and getting on with it and it was indicative of the atmosphere of the whole weekend, mutual respect and sharing. The food was fabulous, many of the restaurants will be keeping the dishes they created for the event on their menus for the next few weeks, the wine superb and the atmosphere couldn’t be bettered.

Homage to James Velkov

“At last” and “finally” were the words on everyone’s lips as the bust of James Velkov was unveiled in Guajara recently.

n the second anniversary of James’ death, authorities, friends and family joined together to see one of his dearest wishes come to fruition, the unveiling of a bust, commissioned by him from the renowned island resident artist, Vicky Penfold, within the enclaves of the first urbanisation he created. It is only a great shame that he wasn’t alive to see it, but his widow, with some of James’ own patience and tenacity, was able to gentle guide the project through. Friends and family paid James homage. The local mayor, Fernando Clavijo, spoke of his dedication and his work in creating Guajara and Tabaiba and island president, Ricardo Melchior, spoke of him as an example to everyone. Those of us who knew him regret the loss of his humour and friendship, his fundamental respect for people and places and his overwhelming honour in all his dealings and applaud the ‘better late than never’ gesture of the placement of his bust.

Fire, fair and fiesta I

n a year when so much chaos has been caused by a volcano, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interesting to know that in just a few weeks, the northern town of Garachico will be celebrating their salvation from their last volcanic eruption in 1706. Garachico was founded after the Spanish conquest of the island in 1496 by the Genovese banker CristobĂĄl de Ponte and it became the main port of the island, prospering in trade with Spain, Latin America and Europe. Its wealth and fame grew and rumour has it that there was once even a street paved with Carrera marble whereon the poor were only allowed to tread once a week to ask for alms. However from the beginning of the17th century onwards the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s luck began to change for the worse. Early in the century they were hit twice by pestilence, followed by a flood in 1645 which killed over 100 people. 14 years later a plague of locusts wiped out the crops and towards the end of the century two major

fires swept through the town. The final straw was the eruption of the Trevejo volcano in 1706, which swept swiftly down the mountains, permanently blocked the port and allegedly buried the marble street. It was the end of Garachicoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great trading days forever. However on this occasion no-one was killed, a salvation that local legend credits to their figure of Cristo de la Misericordia and thus every five years, the village celebrates the populationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safe delivery from the eruption in a spectacular and ver y unusual way (and rather thriftily combine the fiesta with the annual craft fair and their popular fiesta of the traditions and romerĂa of San Roque. In what has become known as the Fuegos del Risco, a group of local volunteers, using sacks, pine cones, and various pyrotechnical tricks, recreate the sight of the lava flowing down the hillside to drown the town and block the port. It is an extraordinarily impressive vision and not to be missed. Also essential viewing are

the extravagant artistic floats, one of which is always made from 100s of thousands of paper flowers. If the flower float isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there, for the locals, the fiesta has not happened. One year, the day before the procession a stray spark from a soldering iron set fire to the float and destroyed months of work. The whole village, even the cloistered nuns, worked day and night to remake the flowers to recreate the float. If you can only attend one romerĂa street procession in the year, Garachicoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s San Roque fiesta definitely has to be one of the favourite choices. Small towns have curiosities that cannot be seen elsewhere or in very few places. In big towns a romerĂa tends to be something of an exhibition, in Garachico, you are urged to join in. Over the whole period there are exhibitions, music and folk music concerts, sports, cultural and tourism activities all of which make the town well worth a visit. If you want to make the most of your trip, local hotels are not expensive, but places are few, so you are advised to book early.

Los Realejos

Santa Cruz

The organisers of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual RomerĂa in Los Realejos say the event attracted its biggest turn-out for years.

Next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Santa Cruz Carnaval will be dedicated to the late Enrique GonzĂĄlez, founder of the islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best-known satirical singing group, Ni Fu Ni Fa, who died in March aged 85.

Thousands attend RomerĂa U

pwards of 35,000 people, the vast majority in traditional dress, packed the northern town for the celebrations, which coincided with Canary Islands Day. Almost one hundred floats and carts took part in the RomerĂa, which took place in glorious sunshine and went off without incident according to the local police. The townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tourism Initiatives Centre made a special effort this year to attract tourists holidaying in the area to the event.

Carnaval 2011 P

ossible themes have been put on ice for a later Carnaval to allow a fitting tribute to GonzĂĄlez, who is credited with creating one of Carnavalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most popular celebrations, the Burial of the Sardine.

Soledad appeal

‘Piedad mother’ sentence reduced A

Tenerife woman who refused to hand over her foster daughter to her biological mother has had her sentence cut to three months on appeal. Soledad Perera, from La Orotava, was convicted in March on several counts of refusing to obey orders from a court and the social services to hand over the young girl, whose real mother claimed custody years after giving her up for adoption. The tug of war escalated into an acrimonious legal battle which Perera lost despite recruiting the services of one of the country’s top lawyers, former Spanish Attorney general Eli-

of separate offences, and has imposed a shorter sentence than the original nine months imposed in March. However, even though she will not spend

time in prison since this is her first conviction, Perera is likely to appeal to the Supreme Court to have the ruling overturned. The chairman of a children’s rights association in the Canaries said the conviction was a ludicrous outcome to a case that should never have come to court. “The blinkered social services and courts were more interested in persecuting Soledad for over two years than looking after the best interests of the girl” said José Luis Calvo.

El Médano Hotel demolition

saga conti nues The threatened demolition of one of Tenerife’s most famous hotels moved a step closer with the news that the Department of the Environment has activated a rarely used mechanism to reclaim the property after a lease lasting several decades. The El Médano Hotel has been the subject of a bitter legal dispute between its owners and the Spanish authorities since the latter notified it that it breached environmental legislation. Despite an intense campaign by locals and official bodies in Tenerife, including Granadilla council and the Cabildo, who want an exception to be made given the hotel’s historic status, the Department of the Environment refuses to budge on its position and has now ruled that changes made to the hotel down the years, in particular the conversion of a terrace into guest rooms, has effectively annulled the terms of the original concession awarded to the owners. The ruling has been followed by official notice that Madrid is to invoke its right to reclaim the land on which the hotel stands.

Port news

Parents of a group of infants who were trapped for over half an hour in a tram in Santa Cruz have criticised the driver for refusing to open the doors despite the soaring temperatures inside the carriage.

The newly-elected business association in Arona has set its sights on modernising the port of Los Cristianos to enable it to receive cruise liners.

Schoolchildren trapped

gio Hernández. The Tenerife High Court has now ruled that the original sentence should combine the various refusals into one continuous act, instead

Tram incident

The incident occurred when a power failure knocked out the electricity supply to the overhead cables of the tramlines, preventing the tram carrying the school party from proceeding. The youngsters, from a primary school in Bajamar, were visiting Santa Cruz with their teachers and were stranded in the carriage while engineers in the tram company’s HQ worked to restore power. According to the parents, the driver was asked repeatedly to open the doors manually to let the four year-olds out, or at least let fresh air in, but refused. One parent is quoted in a local daily as saying “the air was unbreathable due to the heat and he should have acted”. The problem, which affected a total of 22 trams between La Laguna and Santa Cruz, was fixed just before noon, although delays were caused for several hours.

Crossing the road

News makers W

hile the members of the editorial team in the Island Connections office are not quaking in their professional boots (yet), we were more than impressed with the work being done in the English classes at the CEIP El Médano, the local infants and primary school in Granadilla. Under the guidance of the school’s auxiliary English teacher, Kathy Webber, and with teachers Monica and Donna, the classes (kids from ages 5 to 12) are all working on their own English language publications. Kathy said they were looking for some way to interest the kids in learning the language, and she remembered how much fun working on a school magazine had been in her day, suggested they try something similar, and a few months later the presses are ready to roll. On a visit to a class of 11 year olds we were more than taken with their work to

date. Their publication will be called ‘Multi Magazine, and has pages on a wide variety of topics, from fashion (for boys as well as girls) to pets and animals, sport, music, recipes, a crossword page…we were tempted to poach some of the pages for ourselves. The junior editorial teams have also worked on the layout and design themselves and certainly showed they were more than interested in the project. They are also hoping to place some free advertising – though maybe if some of the publications took off they could charge local businesses next year and make them self sustaining. When complete Island Connections will be honoured to help in picking an overall ‘best’ publication, but, clichés aside, all the kids taking part are winners. Kathy told us that she hopes to widen the project, maybe next year including all the public schools in South Tenerife. For now we will soon bring you news of the winner, and a sample of their work.

OAP stops the traffic

Traffic police in Tenerife were called upon for an unusual emergency recently when motorists reported an elderly lady was having difficulty crossing a road.

The incident would not normally have attracted attention except for the fact that the woman was crossing one of the busiest and most notorious stretches on the island, the TF1 motorway near the Carrefour Shopping Centre in Añaza. A patrol rushed to the scene and spotted the woman, who seemed totally disoriented and scared, standing in the middle of the motorway. Officers slowed the heavy traffic and took her by the hand to safety, before calling an ambulance to drive her to hospital for a check-up.

Cruise plans for Los Cristianos

The association, now chaired by Antonio González, wants Los Cristianos to be given a massive upgrade to accommodate at least some of the liners that call in to Tenerife. However, it stresses that unless the improvements to the port are accompanied by changes to the resort’s business model, the plans could backfire badly. “We need to rethink what sort of services we offer here so that cruise passengers will not be left with the impression that Los Cristianos has nothing to offer. For this we need the local council, traders and the island’s authorities to work together to come up with something new to reactivate the area” said González.

Seagrass

Granadilla port hurdle cleared

A major obstacle in the way of the building of the controversial new port in Granadilla has been cleared with the adoption by the Canarian Parliament of a new list of protected animal and plant species. The new legislation was needed in the light of the problems triggered by the damage the dredging and other construction work for the port would cause to marine life in the area, particular the ‘meadows’ of underwater plants known as seagrass located off the coast in El Médano and surrounding parts. In order to avoid problems with EU environment legislation, the Canarian government opted to take the seagrass out of the threatened species list but the decision was challenged by conservation groups and brought to the attention of Brussels, whose funding is vital for the port project. Following the controversy, the government was forced to amend the list of protected species through an act of legislation, which was adopted after an acrimonious debate in Parliament.

Barranco del Infierno Dear Editor

hen is an accident not an accident?

All too often it is people who are dangerous, not the mountains. It is inappropriate to use the word ‘accident’ if the ‘accident’ could have been prevented, for example, if someone is injured, or dies, when skiing on snow slopes where avalanche warnings have closed those areas. Similarly we should always drive our cars aware that all too often pedestrians cross the road, without looking, in front of buses taking on passengers. In the UK today, some mountain rescue teams say 75 per cent of their ‘accident’ callouts are for uninjured walkers who fail to notice the conditions, to abort their plans and to return to their base soon enough when:

Upmarket mistake Dear Editor

s a long term resident in the south of Tenerife and a frequent visitor before that, I can’t help but think that the upmarket swing has gone too far. Yes, we were all sick to death of the touts on the streets, tacky shops and loud and rowdy discos, but the sterile walkways and pedestrian only zones might be pretty, but are they practical. Take the area of Pueblo Canario and the Casino on the beachfront for example. Once upon a time it bustled with people. There are cafes and restaurants in the area that have

been serving happy tourists for years, but no longer. Why? No transport. If people were loath to drive (on the wrong side of the road for some of them) before, now with stricter driving laws, the reticence is even stronger. The buses that used to flood down these roads have been rerouted and the tourist train that could bring life back into the area, runs up to a five star hotel further up the road. Let’s be honest, the type of people who get on a tourist train are more likely to want a pie and a pint that a Pimm’s and paté de foie gras. Why can’t the tourist train stop at the Salytien Centre where they are more likely to get what they want. Go past the train whilst it is at the hotel and see how many people even bother to get down. Sun and sand is what the tourism here was based on, it doesn’t need to be the be all and end all, but it doesn’t have to be driven into a corner either. Frank Turbot Los Cris

Remove fish cages call

Tenerife’s hotel sector has called on the Department of Agriculture to ban fish-farming cages on the coast of the island’s resorts due to the damage they cause to marine biodiversity.

he WimPen company is a household name around the Canary Islands.

Sharing time with Ivan Pengelly

An expert report commissioned by the sector’s association, Ashotel, concludes that the giant cages are, “incompatible with the human use of beaches”, among other reasons due to the massive presence of nitrogen and phosphates generated by the fish-farming. Ashotel insists the impact of the cages, which produce thousands of tons of fish every year, is, “not just visual”, can lead to serious environmental harm and wants the cages to be towed much further out to sea to minimise the consequences on the shoreline throughout the south of the island.

For this reason, Cabrera, rejected the future amplification of the fish cages in the cliff area of Los Gigantes, a tourist areas known as the Blue Lagoon. According to the President, the new installation would cause an enormous visual impact, cloud the water and attract sharks and dolphins. He also emphasised that the installation of additional cages is against the agreement reached by the sector with the Canaria Government. Cabrera explained that the there are over 250 hotels in Arona, Adeje and Santiago del Teide which accommodate around 60 per cent of the island’s tourism and provide work for 40,000 people. “Tenerife has 200 kilometres of coast and there are more adequate areas to place the cages than off the best of the island’s beaches where the most tourism is,” he concluded. The Santiago del Teide mayor, Juan Damián Gorrín, also put in his pennyworth agreeing that the cages should be in specially designated areas away from the tourist areas. “We have to back tourism which is the sector that at the moment is driving the Canarian economy,” he asserted. Submarine environment and ecology professor, Ángel Luque affirmed that the environmental impact in an area where the protected bottle nosed dolphins live, would be considerable and that the nitrogen and phosphorous residues left in the sea after producing the proposed 1,000 tons a year of fish would be equivalent to increasing the human population by 20,000 people.

Interview

The enterprise evolved out of the well known British concern Wimpey, after a management buyout in 1997. At the head of WimPen is Ivan Pengelly, who originally came to the islands as Regional Director for Wimpey in 1983. He brought with him, not only years of experience in the construction business, but his personal understanding of other cultures, already having lived in countries such as Egypt, Venezuela, Pakistan and Spain. Ivan began his career here looking after the first timeshare resort in the Islands: Las Casitas in Lanzarote, as well as Las Rosas in Santiago de Teide, Tenerife. His move here was meant to be temporary, but 27 years later Tenerife is still his home and he is surrounded

The report claims that fish cages are incompatible with human occupation

Ashotel president, José Fernando Cabrera, affirmed, “marine aquaculture is an important economic activity for the Islands, but we should make the effort to site them in areas away from the coast so that they don’t have an environmental impact on the marine floor.” The study was prepared by the Sea Sciences department of the Las Palmas University of Gran Canaria and urges the Canarian Government to stick to an agreement reached on aquaculture within the pact for competitiveness and quality in Canarian tourism and signed in Fuerteventura in 2008. One of the conclusions reached by the study is that fish cages are incompatible with tourism for their visual impact and because the changes brought about in the water that surrounds them hinders its recreational use.

by his family, several of whom work in the company, based in Playa Paraiso. WimPen has gone from strength to strength and much of this success can undoubtedly be attributed to Mr Pengelly himself. He is a hands-on director and is involved in the company’s business at all levels. He also, however, appreciates his staff’s strengths and is renowned for having created a stable working environment, something which is obviously appreciated as some employees have worked with him for over 20 years. The company weathered the bad press timeshare received during the eighties and nineties and Ivan fought hard to improve the industry. He is also suitably disparaging of the more dubious side of timeshare and of the way some companies have tried to continue making big profits. He acknowledges that some of the ‘holiday packages’ which are now being sold are, “less than moral”, and deceiving its clients has never been part of the company’s business practice. Ivan does, in fact, believe wholeheartedly in transparency and perhaps that is why WimPen is still so trusted by

its clients. Ivan has always believed that it is important to keep moving forward and find new ways of dealing with the changing socio-economic climate. For instance, timeshare owners now have the opportunity to exchange their weeks between resorts, something that wasn’t available until last month. He is proud of what the company has achieved, still thoroughly enjoys his work, has no plans to retire yet and is making solid plans for the future. WimPen will, “build

on new projects and its good reputation”. Diversification is the key; WimPen now not only manages timeshare resorts, but also residential and community projects, such as Pueblo Don Thomas in La Gomera. Providing a first-class service is also paramount. Ivan sees himself as a, “servant” of his clients and works hard to maintain standards. On a personal level he does have a passion other than his work. He owns a small col-

lection of classic cars, mostly Jaguars, and regularly takes part in runs around the Islands. He is a charismatic gentleman who has played a significant role in the Island’s development. He also has high hopes for the archipelago’s future. Whilst the government’s plans to raise the standard of tourism here may not have immediately paid off, he believes that there will, eventually, be an up-turn. Optimism and lateral thinking are necessary tools to help us all through this crisis; it’s refreshing to encounter someone with the ability to keep looking forward positively whilst being flexible enough to adapt to present circumstances.

Spanish and English wills – are yours valid?

large percentage of our British clients making wills in Tenerife also have property or assets in the United Kingdom.

Many ask why it is necessary to make a Spanish Will when their English will already covers their worldwide assets. Whilst an English Will can administer Spanish assets, the procedure is long, complicated and will cost approximately four or five times the price of making a Spanish Will in the first place. As such, we recommend that all clients make a Will in each country covering their assets in that country only. However, for those that have made a Will in each country, many fail to consider that conflicting Wills can cancel each other out. One problem we are increasingly seeing is that clients have often failed to revise their British Will whilst

making their Spanish Will. Unfortunately, many Spanish lawyers do not understand British laws or their effect on a Spanish Will. A typical British Will states that the Will revokes or cancels all previous testamentary dispositions. Unless this is expressly limited to the United Kingdom then the British Will inadvertently cancels any Spanish Will made on an earlier date. Alternatively, if both Wills are valid but the British Will leaves “all assets to X, Y, and Z” whilst the Spanish Will leaves the Spanish assets to A, B and C, then a clash can occur (remember that the British Will in the above scenario is not limited to British assets, hence it inadvertently tries to deal with worldwide assets). Where two Wills exist with conflicting provisions, then it is possible that both Wills may be deemed invalid in respect of those conflicting (Spanish)

gifts. The result is that the Spanish portion of the estate could end up being divided in accordance with government prescribed Intestacy Rules, whereby the assets may go to entirely different beneficiaries than those intended by the person making the Will. In any scenario for Brits (valid Will, conflicting Wills or no Will at all), the relevant British law will always apply to their testamentary affairs. Spain applies the individual’s own national laws to such matters. Only Spaniards are bound by Spanish testamentary laws (e.g. compulsory beneficiaries). For a review of your Spanish and British Will requirements or to make either a English or Spanish Will, call us for a quotation or to arrange a consultation on 922 717845 (or 0871 218 0063 from the U.K.) or email us at info@tenerifesolicitors.com.

Taste of Spain The Spanish tourist board has joined together with local companies, including The Daily Telegraph, to offer a taste of what Spain can offer to its visitors. Following on from the successful event in Liverpool in April a further two events are scheduled in London and Edinburgh throughout the summer. Flamenco dancers, medieval food markets and giant paellas head the popularity stakes and many of the country’s regions will be taking part. This year the emphasis is on sport and there is an exhibition on Spain’s sporting history and a number of sports challenges for football, horse riding, surfing, tennis, basketball, golfing and Formula One fans among others.

Sign of the times

The security company, Record Seguridad, has just completed a study which shows an increase in the demand for security systems in Canarian homes.

Record Security, part of the Compañía de las Islas Occidentales group. Their manager Francisco Brito affirmed, “Canarian families are increasingly more worried about safety and the security of their properties, which is why they are

choosing active vigilance and passive security with the installation of security cameras and alarms in their homes”. However in general he pointed out that, “sadly there is no awareness in the Canaries of the importance of security… the majority of businesses see it more as an expense than as an investment”. Unfortunately, especially with the economic crisis persuading some individuals into desperate measures, this is an attitude that may have to change.

Fast track deficit reduction measures for the UK and Europe

Tax rises hit the wealthier By Bill Blevins, Financial Correspondent, Blevins Franks

he new UK Conservative-Liberal Democratic coalition government has as a priority the task of slashing the massive budget deficit of around £165 billion. There will have to be the toughest spending cuts for decades and tax increases to achieve this. An emergency Budget will be delivered on 22nd June. Prior to the election, the parties were not open about what tax rises lay ahead. Immediately following the coalition deal the following was agreed:

Inheritance tax

During his pre-election campaign, the Conservatives had pledged to raise the inheritance tax threshold, currently £325,000, to £1 million. This has been dropped, in effect keeping more Britons liable to the 40 per cent inheritance tax rate and robbing the wealthier of a welcome tax break.

Tax-free allowance

more than a generation before the public finances can be on an even keel.

The tax-free allowance on income will rise to £10,000 from £6,745, at a cost of £17 billion according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies.

British expatriates living in Spain could be affected by the economic measures. If you should move back to the UK the potential tax increases there will impact on your disposable income and wealth, leaving you with less to spend and pass on to your family.

National Insurance Contributions

The one per cent rise in NICs for employees earning over £20,000, which was announced by the previous Labour government, will stay to help pay for the tax free allowance increase.

A wealth and tax adviser like Blevins Franks can help you to plan ahead and arrange your finances in legitimate tax reducing structures, whether you remain in Spain or return to the UK.

Capital gains tax

A substantial increase in capital gains tax is planned on non-business assets such as second homes, buy-to-let properties, other investments and shares. The CGT rate could rise from 18 per cent to 40 or 50 per cent on the sale of some assets. The tax-free threshold of £10,100 on investment income could also be lowered.

VAT

Although this wasn’t mentioned, most economists feel that VAT will undoubtedly be increased from 17.5 per cent to at least 20cent. Other tax increases put in place by the previous government, including an additional

increase in NICs and the withdrawal of pension tax relief for high earners, are due to come into force next year. European countries with indebtedness are under pressure to tackle the problem and cut their deficits. Spain has made a commitment to take significant additional consolidation mea-

sures in 2010 and 2011. The government has announced a new austerity budget with a five per cent pay cut for public workers, a freeze on pensions and by axing investment spending by more than €6 billion. The tax rate on savings income has already increased and VAT will rise by two per cent to 18 per cent in July.

Before the UK election, the National Institute for Economic and Social Research said that the next government must raise taxes by six pence in the pound and freeze tax allowances for the economy to return to health. Many economists warn that taxes will have to rise to reduce Britain’s debt and it will not be down to cuts alone. It will take

House Calls with

Dr. De La Flor healthytenerife@gmail.com

Dear Doctor I have a 4-month old baby and I have some questions about sleeping habits. Should I wake her up for feedings? How many naps does a baby need? When should my baby start sleeping through the night? Sincerely, Lorraine

Dear Lorraine, If you’re like most new mums, you’re probably so sleep deprived that you’ll be nodding off half way through this. It’s tough, but we all live through it. Most babies will start sleeping through the night at about four months of age. You won’t get an uninterrupted stretch of the baby sleeping 10-12 hours, but you will get about five hours and then another good uninterrupted stretch after a night feeding. Those five hours will feel luxurious. Don’t worry if your baby is four months old and still isn’t sleeping that long. You can help her along by letting her sleep at night, not waking her to feed, and by keeping things dark and quiet. Normally when babies are first born, everything is eat, sleep, poop, eat, sleep, poop, so you don’t really count any of that sleeping as naps. But somewhere between two and six months of age, babies tend to settle into a threenaps-a-day pattern, where each nap can last an hour or

two, before going to a onenap-a-day pattern after their first birthday. Most kids lose their need for naps by about five years of age. I don’t recommend waking babies for night time feedings, because you want them to sleep (and you too!). However, I would suggest you wake them for night feedings in their first couple of weeks if they haven’t yet gained back their birth weight - babies tend to lose 10 per cent of their weight after they’re born. Also, if they’re sleeping more in the day than the night, I do suggest waking them so they don’t go more than four hours without eating. Overall, I suggest not waking babies at night so they can find their own sleep schedule. And you generally don’t have to wake them in the day either, because most will wake on their own. If you notice that the baby is sleeping for longer stretches during the day, then I would start waking them in the day, so they don’t get night and day mixed up. Give your baby the opportunity to have a routine. Try to have some semblance of a routine and schedule, but it doesn’t have to be right down to the minute. It’s also helpful to know that once babies get to the point where they’re eating more in the daytime they don’t need to wake and eat at night. But don’t overfeed the baby to encourage her to sleep through the night. Some parents tr y to push more formula, breast milk, or baby food on the baby right before sleep and that can backfire because the baby might not settle in well. Wait until your

baby settles into a pattern where he naturally eats more in the daytime. Always put your baby on his back to sleep, never on his side or tummy. There’s a higher risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome/Cot death) if they’re on their tummy or their side (they can roll onto their stomach if they’re lying on their side).

Dear Doctor, I have herpes and don’t know how to treat it. What are the options? Name Withheld

Treatment with antiviral drugs can help people who are bothered by genital herpes and outbreaks stay symptomfree longer. These dr ugs can also reduce the severity and duration of symptoms when they flare up. Drug therapy is not a cure, but it can make living with the condition easier. There are three major drugs commonly used to treat genital herpes symptoms: acyclovir, famciclovir, and v a l a c y c l o v i r. F o r m u l a s applied to the surface of the skin provide little benefit, and doctors don’t usually recommend them. Initial treatment. If you have symptoms such as sores when you’re first diagnosed with genital herpes, your doctor will usually give you a brief course (7-10 days) of antiviral therapy to relieve them or prevent them from getting worse. Your doctor

may keep you on the drugs longer if your sores don’t heal in that time. After the first treatment, work with your doctor to come up with the best way to take antiviral therapies. There are two options: Intermittent treatment. Your doctor may prescribe an antiviral drug for you to keep on hand in case you have another flare-up; this is called intermittent therapy. You can take the pills for two to five days as soon as you notice sores or when you feel an outbreak coming on. Sores will heal and disappear on their own, but taking the drugs can make the symptoms less severe and make them go away faster. Suppressive treatment. If you have outbreaks often, you may want to consider taking an antiviral drug every day. Doctors call this suppressive therapy. If you have more than five to six outbreaks a year it may be an option for you as it can significantly reduce the number of outbreaks. Some people who take the antiviral drugs daily have no outbreaks at all. There is no set number of outbreaks per year that doctors use to decide when someone should star t suppressive therapy. Rather, the determining factor is if they are severe enough to interfere with your daily life. Side ef fects with these drugs are considered mild, and health experts believe these drugs are safe in the long term. People taking suppressive therapy should see their doctor at least once a year to decide if they should continue. You may find taking the pills ever y day to be inconvenient, the drugs may not work for you, or you may naturally have fewer outbreaks as time goes on. Your doctor can help you make treatment choices to suit your needs. Dr. De La Flor, G.P. is licensed in medicine & general surgery. He holds certificates in nutrition, medical exercise and human performance from the University of Berkeley in California, the American Council on Exercise and the U.S. National Strength & Conditioning Association. He is a strong believer in work/life balance and spends much of his time outside of his surgery on the tennis court, jogging or chasing his four kids around the neighbourhood.

Do wrong to get it right I

f you drive a car you may have experienced this situation. You want to enter a roundabout taking the left lane. As you are coming closer you wonder why the left lane is almost empty while there are 12 cars waiting to enter the right lane. Then you begin to realise why. Nobody will let you in. After taking the risk and rushing to the inside lane you encounter the next problem, nobody wants to let you out.

Get into the fast lane

People just do not understand how the roundabout works. If you enter the right lane you should have to leave via first exit, whereas if you enter the second you can leave wherever you want. But no, there seem to be no rules and instead we have accidents on a daily basis here in Los Cristianos. Let’s say after you finally managed to leave the roundabout without an accident you need to go shopping. With your trolley full you have to choose a till. One is free and in three others there are from three to eight people waiting. Which one would you choose? The empty one? Actually many people will actually go to one of the other queues – it seems to be human nature to congregate where there are other people. If others are doing something it must be worth copying. Try this – walk down a street with someone and arrange for both of you to raise your head and look up at the same time - I bet all the people around will look up, too.

So why am I telling you this and what does it have to do with sport? People always do what others do. Humans are social. If everybody enters the roundabout in the same manner, why not do it too? If there is a long queue somewhere you want to be in there too, a.s.o. Now we watch our nutrient habits and the routine we use in the gym. Why on earth are 80 per cent of people training in the gym following the same programme? No one will have the constant success they desire. Why are 75 per cent of Britons overweight (2007-University of Southhampton)? Because they all do what everybody else does. Eat junk food. What you have to do now is to change your habits. Be a trendsetter instead of a hanger-on. Swim upriver up instead of down. Ask yourself if you want to be like everybody else, overweight, out of shape with low performance levels or do you want to belong to the 20 per cent of the people who are fit, in good shape and achieving high performance levels? In other words: just do wrong (against the trend) to get it right!

World cup/International premiership players Who’s where? Whether you’re a fan of the English Premiership or La Liga in Spain, many of the players you see week in week out will be playing in their national sides in South Africa. Many former team mates could also end up playing against each other, and if Liverpool and Spain striker Fernando Torres gets his wish,

in the final. Torres told the English Express newspaper that his dream final would be England versus Spain adding that his Liverpool team mate Steven Gerard could be one of the stars of the tournament. “Spain v England would be the perfect World Cup 2010 final”, he told the paper, adding that they were probably the second best team in the tournament

(no prizes for guessing who is top in his opinion). “It’s hard to see a weakness in the England team. All they need to do now is break the mental barrier that going out at the quarter-final stage of tournaments brings,” he concluded. If that were to happen other Spanish players lining out for their country on July 11th in the Soccer City Stadium in

Johannesburg, currently plying their trade in the Premiership would include Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal) and Reina (Liverpool). In fact the English league boasts the greatest representation in this World Cup, with 138 players travelling to represent their respective teams. Germany is second with 94, Italy with 93 and Spain with 73. Players from European leagues (not coun-

tries) dominate the Finals. Club by club, as we go to press Chelsea has 16 players chosen to represent their individual countries (it was 17 until Germany’s captain Ballack was injured), followed by Barcelona (14), Real Madrid (12), Arsenal (12), Liverpool (12), Ajax (11), Bayern Munich (11), Juventus (11), Inter Milan (11) and Tottenham (10).

t would have been more of a surprise if David Silva, the Gran Canarian midfielder who plays for Valencia, and was one of the stars of Euro 2008, had been left out. His skills and talent are in no doubt and with over 30 international appearances already under his cap he is a vital member of the team. Born in Arguineguín, he has scored six times for his country.

Barcelona squad, goalkeeper Víctor Valdés and Pedro Rodríguez, were expected. However many did think that when it came to the crunch the ex-Madrid manager wouldn’t actually choose either of the them for the final 23 – but how wrong can you be. Choosing, as he said, with his head and his heart, he decided to give Valdés and the young Tenerife player Pedrito the call-up. The striker from

Abades has been the season’s biggest success story, and made world football history during the season by becoming the only player to score in six different club competitions at national and international level.

oth players are excellent at scoring when it matters most, and could make the difference in any one of Spain’s games.

Songs for glory Any great football competition needs something to sing along to, and there’s more than a few Canarian-based artistes offering a selection to choose from.

Welcome to the 2010 World Cup is the result of the combined forces of some of the Islands’ journeymen musicians, instigated by Joe Ngale, originally from Equatorial Guinea. After a trip to Cannes for the Midem music conference Ngale came back to Tenerife and enlisted the help of vocalist/ composer Ronnie Canada, a soul man from Cleveland, Italian born producer and songwriter Matteo Malavasi, and Capetown native James Darling. The song is currently available on iTunes (http://itunes. apple.com/us/album/welcome-to-2010-south-african/id367011011). For England fans one to listen out for is Get Up for England, written by Darren Clunes and Gary Mac, and recorded in Jubal Studios in Las Américas.

Spring and Summer hair colours

PRESENTS

By Samantha Pengelly

ay goodbye to the cold wet weather and hello to the warm sunshine. Spring and Summer is the perfect time for a new hair colour! 2010 Spring Summer Hair Colour Trends are warm and natural looking with well blended highlights. Blondes - they should be golden and warm tones that are well blended. Platinum blonde can be a good look if done right and kept from looking brassy. If you have blonde hair, darker lowlights add more contrast, also helping to avoid noticeable roots. Redheads - this Spring/Summer 2010, natural looking shades of red hair are in. If you prefer a bolder red go for shades of plum or copper. To really spice up the redhead look, add some golden or pale blonde highlights. Brunettes - hazelnut, coffee and caramel tones are the look for Spring and Summer 2010. Highlights must be seamless and well blended, not bold and brassy. If you have light brown hair or even dark blonde hair, blonde highlights can add depth and volume to your hair.

Highlights Blonde highlights will give a boost to fair and fine, mousy and monotone hair. A generous scattering of fine woven bleached highlights two or three shades lighter than your natural base tone (particularly through the top sections and around the hairline) will create a brilliant blonde effect. If you’re fair haired with an ivory complexion you can choose from either the cool or warm tones. If your skin has pink tones you’re best sticking to the ash blonde and vanilla tones while creamy, yellowtinged skins suit warm golden shades. Brunettes wishing to add some highlights will find that the most flattering option is to focus on having them placed lightly around the face. Stick to rich colours such as honey and golden blondes for a sun-kissed look. Redheads can have either golden tones or pale, bleached highlights.

Golden rules 1. Go for multi-tone highlights so that your

colour has more of a natural look. 2. Blonde actually does fade! Maintain your highlights using blonde enhancing shampoos. 3. Highlighted hair can become porous - use a weekly treatment to help restore condition. 4. Top up your parting on every other salon visit, this will prevent over-colouring and is more cost effective. 5. Never overlap your colour applications - this is what causes over-colouring and damage.

Styling tips Plait hair loosely during the day to reveal a sexy, dishevelled wave in the evening then add a flower with a grip onto the side of your hair. Simple, stylish ponytails look fabulous on everyone. Pull your hair back into a high ponytail to keep it off your neck. Then take a section from the ponytail and wrap it around the band and secure in place.

Play around with hair accessories like hair clips, head bands and sparkly grips. This is a great look that can be worn day or night on long or short hair. Thinking of the big chop? Go for a style with texture, movement, body and choppy layers. Finish the look off nicely with slices of colour using tones such as caramels, creamy blondes and golds. Loose curls can be a beautiful way to style your hair and they’re so easy to create. Curls and waves can be achieved by using heated rollers or straightening irons. Make sure you give your hair a blast with the cool setting on your dryer to allow the curls to separate as you don’t want it looking perfectly set. Nothing says summer like a halo of highlights, it’s the fashion accessory for the al fresco lifestyle. Don’t be afraid to try something new this summer!

ollowing on the success of the Elton John and Rod Stewart concerts, Sun Life Festival Canaries have confirmed that Simply Red will play their only Spanish date in Costa Adeje golf, as part of their Farewell Tour. The company that have finally brought top class acts to South Tenerife have done it again, and Mick Hucknall will bring thousands to this excellent natural

amphitheatre for what promises to be a great show on July 20th. According to one of the festival organisers, Jordi Esplugas, “this is a new challenge for our company to assist the tourist industry, and which, among other things, will work to promote and lift the level of satisfaction of visitors and of course residents in the area”. The group are counting on support from various sectors within the industry and have already got the firm backing of Adeje council, and hope shortly to

announce that of the tourism and cultural departments of the regional government. “Now more than ever we need a good tourism product”, says Esplugas. “Sun and beach, as we are all too aware nowadays, isn’t enough to compete with other destinations” adding that events such as the Simply Red concert give the south of the island that extra edge. Simply Red have notched up 25 years of hits in their time, with sales of over 55 million records and 31 number ones.

News off-stage

ESTA

he ESTA theatre group’s last two productions in March, The Fumed Oak, and The Angel Intrudes seem to have been well-received, and the casts, including several new members, certainly enjoyed themselves. The committee has already chosen the plays for the next production, which will be in November. They have also been asked to perform at several secondary schools in June, playing to the sixth form students. The group’s first play-reading evening for some time took place recently, and was enjoyed by all, with a selection of short extracts from the plays of Nöel Coward, and a one-act play entitled Diary of a Fading Rose. To continue with ESTA’s aims of donating all proceeds to local charities, several committee members recently visited PROBOSCO in La Orotava to present a cheque for €1,000. They were extremely

impressed with the work of this organisation, which is very dependant upon voluntary donations, and it is hoped to donate more to them in the future. A barbecue has been arranged for members and friends for the evening

of June 17th, at the barbecue area in La Vera. The cost, including wine will be €5. Anyone wishing to attend should contact either ESTA secretary, John Allmond on 922 33 28 89 or ESTA president Colin Price on 922 57 21 04.

Classical concerts

Vienna praise for Music Festival

Next year’s Canary Islands Classical Music Festival has been already praised by the conductor of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra as one of the best in its 27-year history. Fabio Lisi announced that his world-famous orchestra will give four concerts, two in Las Palmas and two in Tenerife, in late January 2011 as part of the Festival, which was formally presented in the Spanish Embassy in the Austrian capital. Sharing centre stage on next year’s programme will be Russian soprano Anna Netrebko, who was forced to pull out of the presentation due to a family illness. The Festival will also feature, for the first time ever, a specific programme aimed at children, including concerts by the St Florian’s Children’s Choir, also from Austria.

World Cup song

Bangers & Mash

Well known in the south of Tenerife for many years, brothers Aaron and Leon Cormack have recorded a World Cup 2010 song for England. They have over their musical career created a sound which embodies all the virtues of pop music past and present. Harmony, melody and lyrics powered by a rock band. Following in the steps of greats such as World in Motion, Vindaloo and Three Lions, their song, Bangers & Mash which was penned by DJ Marcus Day, has been described by the music and radio industry as the next big England Anthem, an anthem for the people. And when England score, we will all be going Bangers & Mash! Bangers & Mash is supported by Waynes World, www.waynesworld.com and has been chosen from many others to be the official Linekers Group World Cup Song 2010. The Cormacks have recently been to the UK to record the accompanying video which features many celebrities. You can hear the song on Oasis FM, or go online to http://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=HiWEA5fUjUg.

Hands On

Helpful hints for around the house

Adding an electric socket, part 1

ou can never have enough electric sockets! If you are undertaking major electrical work, you need a qualified installer. However, if you just want to add a socket or two, you can do it yourself, provided you follow a few simple rules. Pic 1 First, decide where you want your socket. To comply with regulations, it must be at least 50cm above the floor or below the ceiling and 20cm from any door or window.

ther musicians could take a lead (!) from Lou Reed and his partner, experimental musician Laurie Anderson, who are staging a concert on June 5th exclusively for dogs as part of their Vivid Live Festival in Sydney, Australia. Canine’s will be yapping about the event for years to come, according to the festival website, adding that it is an absolute must for any dog and their two legged friends. The gig takes place on the Sydney Opera House’s northern boardwalk at 10am. Laurie Anderson has composed a 20 minute work especially for the hearing range of

dogs – who can hear frequencies far outside the human audio spectrum. Taking the idea of the apparently inaudible dog whistle to new artistic heights, our canine friends will be treated to a glorious cacophony of sound, while all the human members of the audience will hear is the lapping of the water on the harbour beside the Sydney Opera House. The website continues, “the morning will be an
