A court in Murcia has ruled on a landmark case, that could see thousands of victims of the property bust receive refunds for deposits and part payments, as the responsibility for ensuring guarantees in some cases is been confirmed as being that of the bank. Spanish solicitor Oscar Ricor, of law firm Ricor Abogados, (ww.ricorabogados.com), has

been fighting the case for a couple who had innocently put down a deposit on an â&#x20AC;&#x153;offplanâ&#x20AC;? home, believing that their property would be built in the time stated, but then suffered the loss of their money as the developer had ceased trading. However, in this particular case, the bank had issued a guarantee to the developer, which stated that they would indeed provide funding for the project, ensuring that the money received from clients in what could be a risky investContinued on Page 2

Continued from Page One ment, would in fact be secure. The problem came when the time frame for the bank guarantee ran out. Although the bank confirmed that they would be financially backing the project, this assurance was dated and had become time expired. That is where this ruling has become “landmark” in the decision from the judge, who has ruled that the banks cannot date such guarantees, and that if they have, then that time frame of validity is invalid, and the guarantee remains in place until such point as the building becomes finished. This case is different to many which are ongoing through the courts, such as class actions against a number of developers who have actually built properties, but are as yet incomplete or “technically” habitable. In this case, the developer took the deposit from the buyers but failed to build anything, or have commenced building, but the building could not possibly be used. Mr Ricor explained to The Leader that, “It is all a question of scale. In some instances, properties have been built, and are just waiting for documentation to say that they can be inhabited. In this case, the developer hadn´t even started

building, but even if they had laid the foundations, or built part of the structure, if the building is far from complete, then it would and should qualify for coverage of the bank guarantee scheme, in order to claim directly the refund of the deposits from the bank or insurance entity”. The clients in this particular case have to remain anonymous whilst a further, totally separate criminal case is ongoing against the developer, but they issued a statement which read, "Without the dogged determination of Oscar Ricor, we would not be in the happy position of having our deposit monies returned to us. We are extremely grateful for his support. Unfortunately, many other Northern Europeans have not been so lucky. It has been a very stressful six years making what should have been a happy early retirement a period of anxiety and illness. With this landmark decision, we can now move on with our lives here in Spain." There are countless cases going through the courts against builders and developers of properties in Spain, some of which are likely to take ten years or more to resolve, but the benefit of this case shows that once a case of this type is brought to the courts, it can

theoretically be resolved very quickly, with victims managing to receive their money back in a very short time, although not without having their hopes and dreams shattered along the way. “There is now hope for a lot of people in this situation”, continued Mr Ricor, “Although it must be made clear that every case is different and is judged on its own merits, by a court ruling in favour of the buyer, this puts a totally different angle on how we can approach cases of this nature, and for the first time, the legal structure in Spain is not favouring the large institutions, but is standing alongside those of us who have been fighting for justice for many years already”. Having said that, Mr Ricor also pointed out that this does not affect the rights of anybody who may already have a case pending, and dealing with those responsible through the criminal courts will still be continuing, albeit at a slower rate than this, but he affirmed, “I for one will not rest until those unscrupulous crooks who have stolen from innocent buyers are brought to face criminal charges, but now with the added bonus of having the possibility for a refund whilst the criminal case runs concurrently.”

ENTRANCE RESTORED TO 19TH CENTURY ORIHUELA MINE Staff from the Orihuela City Department of Infrastructure have restored the entrance to an old mine near the nineteenth century Santa Matilde en la Ladera on the slopes of St. Anton. Pedro Macebo, Councillor for Tourism, said that this is a particularly important project because the improved access will allow the former mercury mine to be added to the important tourist route of San Miguel del Monte which he fully expects to become an important tourist attraction in the coming months. Since the work was first carried out the path of Mount San Miguel has seen an increase in the number of visitors. This route starts at la plaza

de Catula and continues to the Seminary viewing area where the new mine can be visited.

ARCHAEOLOGISTS DIG UP INTACT ROMAN GRAVES

Archaeologists are digging up the necropolis of Baelo Claudia, one of the best preserved Roman cities in Spain, and they report that they've already uncovered several intact graves that likely date back more than 2,000 years. Founded in the late second century B.C., Baelo Claudia lies near today's town of Tarifa at the southernmost tip of Spain, separated from Morocco by the Strait of Gibraltar. Since 2009, scientists at the University of Alicante have led excavations at the site, which is considered by some the best preserved city from the high imperial Roman period of the Iberian Peninsula. During this summer's digging season, archaeologists at the ancient coastal town turned their focus to Baelo Claudia's graveyard. In a blog post, Fernando Prados Martínez, a University of Alicante professor who is leading the project, wrote that Monday began the last week of excavations. But his team has already made several finds. They've uncovered funerary monuments as well as cremation graves and intact graves, complete with their grave goods, according to a statement from Asociación RUVID, a Valencian nonprofit research association. The team hopes to learn more about the ancient funeral rituals of the city through their excavations. www.livescience.com

TORREVIEJA REDEVELOPMENT PLANNED AGAIN

There has been much speculation and planning over the redevelopment of Torrevieja in recent years, like the demolition and redeveloping of the area near the Hombre Del Mar, which has not seen anything more than a plan and presentation party; some of which has failed disastrously, such as the redevelopment of the pedestrianised areas of the city; and some of which seemed like a good idea at the time, but stopped before completion, as was the case of the “cigar” health and relaxation centre alongside the salt lakes. However, in the next few months, more plans may well start to appear that could see the port area of the city take on a whole new persona, especially given that the current modernised Marina Salinas zone is almost deserted and other areas lat dormant despite the plans from the past.

The Mayor of the city, Eduardo Dolón, has announced that he has a vision for this area, which would see it transformed into the “best entertainment area of the province”, with the creation of a specific attraction to young audiences, with proposals for youth leisure centres and a large green area in the city centre. One aspect that Dolón is focussing on is entertainment, which is seen as vital for local tourism, for which the mayor has been in discussions with the hospitality and trade sectors, and has asked that they offer proposals that could be implemented into the project. Dolón values the input from these “very important” professional groups, and through their associations, he hopes to establish, “a major entertainment centre that is a benchmark in the province of Alicante.” This announcement also comes after the Casino Mediterraneo decided to leave the city of Torrevieja in favour of the Zenia Boulevard development, which has itself

caused a huge amount of damage to the retail sector in the city, according to their recent protestations. Some development planning has already taken place, albeit on a small scale, and the mayor has stated that he has no intention of removing anything that is currently on the site, such as the local craft market, but there has been a number of innovative proposals already to implement a new entertainment area, with a significant part dedicated to children, creating a large permanent funfair, which also seems to be a u-turn on the on-going plans to move the current fair to the site near the Aquopolis water park. This plan, which is already largely reflected on paper, complete with a green area for the city centre and the redevelopment of the port traffic and road network to facilitate an easier flow, and also features a new area for the parking, which will allow the creation of several hundred spots, joining the existing car parks at Marina Salinas and the International

Marina. Any proposals approved may also affect the Real Club Náutico, a business which is in the centre of the entire site of some history, as well as the surrounding retail premises, a lot of which have become derelict and abandoned, which collectively may give a boost to the profile of the city, assuming that this proposal actually comes to fruition, unlike many more before.

‘Twitters fr om the Atlantic’ Look, no lights! I occasionally hear horror stories from expats, as well as from those who have a holiday home in Spain, who suddenly find that their electricity, telephone or water supply has suddenly been disconnected, without warning and with no reason given. In some cases, and particularly for those who live in another country and only occasionally visit their holiday home, it is often because their direct debit has been bounced by the bank, because of lack of funds in the bank account. This is often a simple explanation where maybe there has been some additional

expenditure, and overseas bank accounts are infrequently checked and it can be easy to forget to top up an account to meet regular bills for a holiday home in another country. However, more seriously, I am hearing more frequent occasions when this is not the case. Some friends recently visiting Gran Canaria were shocked to find that on arrival at their holiday apartment, there was no electricity. There had been sufficient funds in their bank account, yet the direct debit had never been presented to the bank, resulting in disconnection. This situation took several days of their holiday to rectify, and not always easy if you don't happen to speak the language, and in this case involved employing a translator to telephone and later to visit the electricity company. Eventually, our friends’

electricity supply was reconnected, but without the help of the manager of the apartment block, who arranged for a temporary power line to be installed, the first week of a two-week holiday would have been ruined. We had similar problems with our telephone line with Telefonica some years ago, which was suddenly disconnected for no apparent reason. The bank assured me that there had been sufficient funds in the account, but that no direct debit had been presented. They also advised me that similar problems had affected other bank customers and suggested that this was during the transition period when Telefonica were in the process of changing their name to Movistar. Despite considerable argument and representations, Telefonica were totally unsympathetic to the problem, and insisted that I pay a reconnection fee before they restored my telephone line. As a result, I transferred the line away from Telefonica to Vodafone, which offered me a much better service, enhanced facilities and at a lower price. They also offered a better service in English at that time, which also helped! Last week, I became concerned that I had not received or paid an electricity bill for nearly three months. Even though all my essential bills are paid by direct debit, I have learned not to rely upon this and began to fear that I would, like other expats, find myself without electricity. I checked with my bank, which assured me that no direct debit had been submitted in the last three months. I called the electricity company and, after several calls, the helpful representative confirmed that it was merely a change in their billing arrangements from monthly to bimonthly. Anyway, excuses included August was within the billing period, and little happens in August due to the holidays, and bills are delayed...

By Bar rie Mahoney

The August holiday blip and bi-monthly billing I could understand, but bearing in mind that the change to bi-monthly billing had been announced last year, with the company later reverting to monthly bills a couple of months later, I was totally confused. The customer support representative finally managed to reassure me that they had once again reverted to bi-monthly billing, confirmed that my account was in order and that I wouldn't be disconnected. However, this still didn't explain the gap of three months in their billing. As is often the case, all is not always as it seems when living as an expat in a new country, and particularly in August. Fingers crossed that I will keep my electricity supply, but I will let you know what happens if it is disconnected!

CORVERA TEST FLIGHTS PROVE SUCCESSFUL Following the recent final test flights at Corvera airport, reported in The Leader two weeks ago, the Spanish airport authority has confirmed a favourable outcome to the exercise, ratifying a clear path to the final stage of approval before the airport is clear for operations. In a press release, the airport developer explains that the arrival, departure and approach procedures will now be presented to the Inter ministerial Committee of Defence and Public Works for approval. Last month, Aena Aeropuertos sent a technical aircraft to Murcia to verify the arrival, departure and approach procedures agreed upon by the General Air Academy, and in whose definition representatives from Alcantarilla Air Base, the Spanish Air Force, the regional government of the Autonomous Community, the airport concessionary company and experts from Aena participated. The flights undertaken by technical staff from Aena were aimed at testing out the procedures to be used by future operators of the airport and ensuring that they

were acceptable. While the technical staff had indicated their satisfaction with the outcome of the test flights, the concessionary company had to wait for Aena to deliver its official report. Now that this favourable report has been issued, the flight procedures will be presented to the Interministerial Committee of Defence and Public Works (CIDEFO) for approval in its December plenary session. Once approved, which appears to be nothing more than a formality, the procedures will be published in Spain´s AIP (Aeronautical Information Publication), a neces-

sary step for the commencement of operations at the airport. Meanwhile, the timeframe for tendering the operation of duty free stores at Aena airports expired last week, which still included a concession at San Javier airport, providing a little hope to some of those against the closure of that facility that it may remain operational. Jet2.com are also advertising flights to Murcia, but are unable to confirm the arrival airport as it is expected that they will be the first carrier to take up the routs into the new, ultra modern and more central airport facility.

ORIHUELA COSTA RBL AT ZENIA BOULEVARD

The Orihuela Costa and District Branch of The Royal British Legion started their 2012 Poppy Appeal collection at the new La Zenia Boulevard shopping centre last weekend. There to assist the branch were two of the Chelsea Pensioners over from London. Wayne Campbell and Arthur (Skippy) Teasdale. Poppy collections will be taking place throughout all areas up until 11 November so please wear your Poppy with Pride. Events have been held already at Leeson Street of the Rioja Centre raising €100.00 and one of the branch members June Williams held a soup and

sandwich event at her house which raised €364.60. Further events are planned The La Terraza Bar Bigastro on 3rd November and Cheers Bar Eagles Nest on 10th November who are holding a ´40´s evening. The Orihuela Costa and District Branch will be holding their Remembrance Service on Sunday 11 November 2012 at the Cailla de las Mil Palmeras (the church next to the Olympia Restaurant.) The service will commence at 10.30 with a parade of Standards led by The Torrevieja Pipes and Drums. The Phoenix Band will play within the church and afterwards in the gardens of the Olympia Restaurant. Everyone will be welcome to attend the service. The Orihuela Costa and District Branch meet at The Olympia Restaurant Mil Palmeras every 3rd Thursday of the month, 7 for 7.30pm. Everyone is welcome to attend and join. You DO NOT have to be ex service to do so. www.orihuelacostarbl.com. Since the event reported above Zenia Boulevard have withdrawn their permission for the RBL to carry out Poppy Collections.

ORIHUELA COSTA STANDARD BOUND FOR THE ROYAL ALBERT HALL The Orihuela Costa and District Branch of the Royal British Legion has been invited to parade with it´s standard in front of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at the Festival of Remembrance which will be held at the Royal Albert Hall on 13 Novemberthis year. Standard bearer Eddie Coleman received the news when a member of the organising committee rang his La Zenia home from the RBL Headquarters in London.

Branch Chairman Keith Carter said that everyone is absolutely delighted. It is a great honour for all our members and would like to think that the invitation recognises all the hard work that has taken place over the past year. The Branch raised over €15,000 at last year’s Poppy Appeal, more than any other Branch in Spain. It is our target to achieve as much, if not more this year. This is only the second time that that an RBL Branch in Spain has been recognised in this way. The Hondon Valley Branch were the

first when the standard was carried three years ago by Wendy Dengate who now serves on both her Branch and the Spain North Committee. Not quite so good news for Eddie who is already polishing away like mad. He has to report to the Albert Hall at 7am on the morning of the Festival when he will be met by the London District Sergeant Major who will no doubt be only too keen to put him through his paces. GOOD LUCK EDDIE!

But now she’s about to go away to university and I’m scared. I don’t know how I’ll cope without her but I don’t want to stop her achieving her potential. I’m going to miss her so much too that it makes me cry every time I think of it. Sheila Speak to your GP and ask if there is any help available in your area Sheila. You're absolutely right about your daughter, she can't go on caring for you at the expense of her education. We're all a little wary of change aren't we? Up to now,

Moving on for Mum My dad died of cancer six months since when my mum has been in a terrible state. She relied on him so much and doesn’t have many friends of her own. She’s been coming to stay with me and my husband most weekends, but now she’s asked if she can move in permanently. I love Mum, but couldn’t bear living with her all the time and think it would put a real strain on things but I can’t bear the thought of letting her down. Theresa Its a sad situation Theresa, losing your father must

have been a huge blow to you and your mum. We all deal with grief in our own way and it takes some of us longer than others to finally come to terms with a loss like this. I guess your mum needs more time to adjust to life without your dad and to work out what she wants to do from this point on. I don't think having her move in permanently would be a good idea either for the simple fact that she needs to learn to stand on her own two feet now. Of course, as her daughter, you should be doing all you can to help her through this but that doesn't necessarily mean allowing her to move in! Sit down with your mum and talk this through, explain that you don't think it would be right for her, or for you, if she moved in. So long as you are clear about the thinking behind this, she should understand in the long run. It may still be early days but when the time is right, you could suggest that she gets out and about and starts to meet new people.

you've had the love and attention of your daughter and its only natural for you to worry about how you'll cope once she's away. The only way to deal with this is to work out alternative solutions - your GP as well as your friends and wider family can help with that. Try not to worry, whilst things maybe a little difficult at first, I'm sure you won't be left to your own devices and your daughter will be home during holidays wont she? Aside from that, she will only ever be a phone call away so you should be able to talk to her whenever you like. Like I said, things will be difficult at first but given time, you'll be fine sweetheart, trust me.

LACK OF CLEANLINESS ATTRACTS RESIDENT PROTEST ON COSTA

The passion of the residents and business owners of the Orihuela Costa, rang through the streets in a wave of horns and shouts, as many gathered to publically to complain about the degradation of the coastal zone, under the current political administration. The sound of a firework signalled the start, as an internationally represented body of protestors moved from the Mercadona car park in Playa Flamenca, to descend on the coastal town hall. Waving banners and carrying symbolic palm trees, representative of what some consider as the severe lack of attention given to the collection of garden waste, as well as bags of rubbish, residents displayed their dissatisfaction at the overall management of the basic rights that a tax payer can expect, that of refuse and waste collection. The CLARO political party had arranged the protest, stating in their press release that “The

shameful state of Orihuela Costa, now and during the summer, has caused great offence to the residents and taxpayers”, and so they called on the residents to make their voices heard, providing photographs, documents and signatures to be formally presented to the town hall during the protest march. Although the group were not met by the councillor by whom they feel the responsibility is held, Pedro Mancebo, himself once aligned with CLARO through an electoral pact with his own CLR party, his former battle companion, Bob Houliston, presented the documents to the official channels. Once complete, the crowd were addressed, before collecting their visual artefacts in a move to “set an example to the town hall”, as Bob Houliston put it, and promptly dispersed without the need for intervention from the rather ‘too many’ local police and Guardia Civil officers on hand at the time.

ORIHUELA BAR ASSOCIATION FIGHT AGAINST BOGUS ABOGADO’S The Dean of the Orihuela Bar Association, Mr Manuel Almarcha Marcos, together with Mrs María Dolores Hernandez Ruiz of the Commission to fight against professional imposters, had a meeting last Friday with the German Consul in Alicante, Mr Dieter Fahnebroc, in order to look for cooperation to draw attention to these kind of illegal imposters who are very common in the coast areas where most of the expatriates live. The goal of the Orihuela Bar Association is to protect expats from fake professionals who make clients believe that they are solicitors or lawyers or even barristers without having the required licenses to be so, and in the other hand, to protect the prestige of the Spanish Legal Profession which is greatly damaged by these fake professionals.

Le@der Home Improvement's division, The choice is Clear has been successfully installing Windows, Conservatories and Glass Curtains to the Costa Blanca & Costa Calida regions for over seven years. Our commitment to providing the highest quality products, coupled with a customer service which is second-to-none has made us the market leader here in your area.

but it only works best with UPVC profile. Imagine all the noise from busy roads and loud neighbours gone. Turn your home in to a comfortable and quiet place where you can enjoy the things you do.

We believe our customers deserve the best and we can now offer you complete peace-of-mind when choosing the supplier for your new Windows, Doors, Conservatories or Glass Curtains. Here at THE LEADER HOME IMPROVEMENTS, we offer both aluminium and uPVC products which allows us to always provide a solution which suits all budgets. Currently we have some GREAT OFFERS on uPVC installations, and if you order your new windows and doors today. So why choose uPVC? uPVC offers a number of characteristics. These include: Warmer & Drier In a typical Spanish home, more than 50% of heat loss can come from inadequate aluminium or timber windows. With our high quality UPVC double glazed windows you can cut down that heat loss to an absolute minimum whilst also cutting down those ever-increasing power bills and keeping your place warm and dry. Many Spanish

homes also suffer from mould and moisture as a result of condensation. All our products are made from high quality, German designed UPVC profile, and unlike aluminium or timber it does not conduct heat or cold. There is an effective drainage system that allows water to escape easily. Combined with our 28mm insulated double glazed units the condensation can be decreased up to 5 times. Secure Home security provides a great benefit – peace of mind. To feel safe at home is very important to every home-owner. That is why we are including a Multi-Point Locking System in every window and door that we install. Our UPVC sliding and Tilt & Turn windows also benefit from key-locking handles. Our UPVC doors also incorporate a 7-Point locking system for added protection. Quieter Are you tired of that loud noise from outside? Does it prevent you from sleeping at night? With our UPVC windows, you can silence the noise from the outside by 80% (compared to single glazing). Double glazing is a powerful barrier against noise,

Designed for Convenience & Style The core of every Tilt&Turn window is its hightech internal hardware. It enables effortless turning and tilting of the window sash with a single handle operation. Turn the handle through 90° and the window 'tilts' inwards, hinged at the bottom with a stay at the top to allow a free flow of air for draught-free ventilation. Turn the handle a further 90° and the window 'turns' fully inwards, hung on to the side for maximum ventilation, more fresh air and ease of cleaning. Our Sliding Windows are very popular for their convenience. Sliders are recommended everywhere where inward or outward opening windows are not desired. When the sash is open it slides in to the window and does not take any space inside or outside the living area. This means you can use the area next to the window for anything you like. The new modern locking mechanism ensures smooth operation, and as a result you can easily open sliders with only one hand. Outstanding Warm Windows quality insures there will be no gaps left when the window is closed, so you can enjoy the maximum noise reduction. The result is a dry, mould free and healthy home. FINALLY THE CHOICE IS CLEAR!

Dr Ken and Mrs Susie Wildey, Mosa Trajectum “We were looking for two key things in our new windows; good quality and good service. We are pleased with both – and for us, with limited Spanish, the benefit of having all communications in English was an added bonus! All contacts (eg texts/emails) were dealt with speedily – so communication rated an ‘A’ plus. We would recommend ‘the Choice is Clear’ for good quality at a fair price:- having seen our windows fitted, our neighbours are already planning to upgrade their flimsier windows with a higher quality specification from ‘the Choice is Clear…” Mr & Mrs Hepton, Benijofar, Alicante

‘We are extremely happy with the service provided by your company. Both the products and service received were second to none’

WE HAVE THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION FOR ALL YOUR GLAZING PROBLEMS

007 CARS ON THE CHEAP James Bond returns to the silver screen next week. Daniel Craig is the most recent incarnation of 007. Devastatingly handsome, well mannered and well dressed, with an exquisite taste in beautiful women, fine liquors and fast cars. Those are all characteristics that you share with the famous 007, correct? One thing Bond has that you may not, however, is deep pockets. So if an Aston Martin DB5 doesn’t exactly meet with your bank manager’s approval, you’ll need to go with Plan B. Thanks to Hagerty International, a UK classic car insurance specialist, here’s a few ideas in their list of alternative Bond cars without the hefty price tag. 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1 – “Diamonds are Forever” (£16,300) Still great looking but quite a bit larger than its predecessors, as was Sean Connery in 1971’s “Diamonds Are Forever.” You could argue that both Connery and the Mustang had put on a bit of a middle age spread. 1961 Sunbeam Alpine Series II – “Dr. No” (£9,700 ) The Sunbeam Alpine was said to be the only sports car available to the producers of “Dr. No” when they were shooting in Jamaica. 1981 Alfa Romeo GTV6 – “Octopussy” (£4,400 ) Alfa Romeos are great driver’s cars and the great stunt driver Remy Julienne put the new six-cylinder GT to good use in a chase scene in the movie “Octopussy” after Bond swipes the car and heads off the detonation of a nuclear bomb. 1977 Lotus Esprit S1 – “The Spy Who Loved Me” (£9,200) After the famous Aston Martin DB5, the white Lotus Esprit is probably the sexiest and most recognized Bond car. 1996 BMW Z3 – “GoldenEye” (£4,250) The little Z3 roadster was BMW’s entry into the convertible sports car world. They did it with a bang from a marketing standpoint and this little bit of product placement into Pierce Brosnan’s debut as 007.

LINEA DIRECTA SAY THAT 3 OUT OF 4 ACCIDENTS RESULTING IN INJURY OR DEATH ARE CAUSED BY DRIVER ERROR Whenever we find ourselves in a difficult or dangerous situation when we are driving we only have a fraction of a second to take a decision and carry it out correctly. Consequently, when drivers take the wrong decision, the number of accidents resulting in death or injury is tripled, as figures show that 73% of accidents are caused by drivers making a bad decision, compared to 27% in which they acted correctly.

Brosnan era (strange to see a British spy driving a German car, but money talks). The Seven Series was and is the ultimate BMW executive sedan. 1980 Lotus Esprit Turbo – “For Your Eyes Only” (£11,500) Q, Bond, Lotus and Lotus’ customers all thought that the basic Esprit was in need of more power and that’s precisely what the Esprit got in the form of an exhaust driven turbocharger. For more information visit online at www.hagertyinsurance.co.uk.

This is the main conclusion of the study “Decision-making when driving” in which 174,000 accidents resulting in injury or death have been analysed. This means that in the last 4 years, nearly 130,000 accidents resulting in injury or death could have been avoided if the drivers involved had been able to assess the dangers on the road correctly. The most common errors are due to drivers being distracted, joining roads incorrectly, turning badly, illegally overtaking and not maintaining a safe distance between the vehicle in front. As for types of road, Línea Directa’s report confirms that conventional roads are the most dangerous, due to the fact that 76% of accidents take place on them. On dual carriageways and motorways, the most common types of accident caused by driver error are rear-end collisions and vehicle crashes, mainly due to sudden braking and the switching of lanes.

DRIVER PROFILE Men aged between 18 and 24 who have held a driving licence for less than two years and the over 65s are those most likely to be involved in accidents due to driver error. The former because they have a lower perception of risk and the latter because they have lost certain skills. On the other hand, women aged between 35 and 64, who have held a driving licence for 15 years or more are those who take the best decisions.

CASES OF LUNG CANCER IN WOMEN DOUBLE Experts in Spain continue to recommend the rejection of cigarettes because it reduces the risk of cancer. Their calls come on the back of figures released by Madrid’s MD Anderson Cancer Center showing that of the approximately 24,500 new cases diagnosed in 2012 in Spain, 5,200 are women, representing an increase of 49% from 2006 but what the MD Anderson Cancer Center, find particularly disappointing, despite a multitude of press, is that many Spanish are strting smoking later in life as the number of smokers continues to rise. Lung cancer currently represents 13% of all cancer diagnoses and is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. However, while deaths from the four most common cancers - lung, breast, prostrate and colorectal are declining, cases of lung cancer among Spanish women continue to rise. This week the authorities hope to raise awareness about this disease because, although there are factors such as personal history, lung disease and some occupations that expose workers to certain chemicals, the main risk factors are preventable, the main one of which is smoking. Dr. José Miguel Sánchez Torres, medical oncologist at the MD Anderson Cancer Center of Madrid said that 15% of all smokers develop lung cancer and, far from what many people believe, the occasional cigarette does not reduce the risk of autism. Experts recommend the stopping of smoking as soon as possible, since "quitting significantly decreases the risk of developing lung cancer, so

that after fifteen years of giving up the likelihood of contracting the disease is no greater than that of nonsmokers. However, doctors are still extremely upbeat and say that this type of disease is treatable at every stage. The emphasise that available treatments will usually improve the quality of life of patients and prolong their rate of survival.

A TIME TO REMEMBER Traditionally the beginning of November is a time for remembering our departed loved ones and on 1st November many Spanish families will mark it by tidying the graves of loved ones and decorating them with fresh flowers. Often candles are lit too. In the British Isles the occasion is marked a day later, on 2nd November - the feast of All Souls - and the Church of England chaplaincy in Torrevieja is offering English speakers the opportunity to commemorate departed family and friends on that day. At 11a.m. at Lago Jardin Church there will be a special service of Holy Communion for All Souls Day at which names can be handed in to be remembered in the course of the service. Then at 7p.m. at La Siesta Church there will be a Service for the Commemoration of the Departed . Here the names of all those whose funerals were taken by the chaplaincy will be read out, together with any other names which have been handed in, while those present will also be invited to light a candle in memory of those they have lost. Whether you are recently bereaved or lost someone some time ago, you are warmly invited to share in either of these services to give thanks for your loved one's life and to hear again God's promise of resurrection. For further details contact the Anglican chaplain Revd. Chris Scargill on 966 92 5205. Email revdcms@gmail.com

AECC WINTER HOURS AT PLAYA FLAMENCA We recently reported the opening of the new AECC office in Torrevieja, The Pink ladies at the Civic Centre in Playa Flamenca and this has resulted in many people dropping in to book mammograms and smear tests and even men attending to book prostate tests (believe it or not, you know what men are like). These tests are part of the AECC early detection screening program and are so vitally important to the unfortunate people who develop this evil disease as the sooner it is detected the better for the sufferer. I am myself living proof of this fact as my breast cancer was diagnosed in its very early stages after a mammogram at Torrevieja Hospital. The new winter hours for the Civic Centre, as of now the opening times are between 10.00am and 1.00pm every Wednesday and the AECC Torrevieja office is open Mon to Thurs between 10.00am and 1.00pm.

SO WHAT ABOUT BENNY? If you enjoy mixing the older songs with the new, then Exite Radio is the place where you will find the best mix of music from across the decades. If you listen between 11:00 and 2pm, then you will no doubt have heard our very own representative of the era of great music, despite the fact he wasn´t even born when the likes of Sinatra, Williams, Presley and the like were at their heyday. “Brunch with Benny” on Exite Radio is presented by Benny, but you would never guess that he is just 17 years old, especially given the maturity of his musical taste, and the wealth of information he offers during his show. Benny was born in Holland and moved to Spain when he was 12 or 13. His father was a singer in Holland, and had a reputation for being an amazing performer. Perhaps it´s in the genes, but Benny himself sings on the costa's as well, wowing the crowds with the power of his voice and the impeccable presentation of his performances. IN between his performances, Benny is also on Exite Radio every Monday to Friday from 11am till 14pm with a lot of variety. Benny, as we know, is only 17 but he's more into old music instead of today's modern music. He said “of course I like the modern music as well, but I prefer older music like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Tom jones etc”. During his live performances, he sings lots of different songs including songs from Tom Jones, Engelbert Humperdinck, The Rat Pack, Michael Buble, and lots more, as well as a few Dutch songs, he is Dutch after all, and he likes to sing songs from Il Divo as well. If you want to keep up with Benny personally, you can find him on Facebook, just search for Benny Van Den Berg, and add him as a friend. Or, if you would like to book this superstar performer, then you can call his agent on 676 120 426, 671 376 582, or Email Bennyy@hotmail.nl, and don't forget to tune in to Exite Radio every

Monday to Friday from 11am till 2pm on 89.2 or 93.1 fm on your radio, or online on www.exiteradio.com, oh and you can see him on youtube too, just search for JustBennyy.

Hiyaa, it’s us Frankie and Benny again for another blog! Wooooo! As you probably already know, we are going to be talking about the most random stuff, upcoming events, and we’ll let you know what we’ve been up to the last week. And of course again this week Frankie is going to start off with The XFAACTORR! -.- Soooo.. Frankie what did you think of last week’s X Factor?

I had to build up the stage as well, (and it wasn’t a small stage either) so we started on Sunday morning at about 9am and we finished Sunday night at about 10 pm, so I was pretty tired. I got home and went to bed, and then! The next day! Got up at about 9am started preparing myself, and got to the venue at about 11am, Testing the sound, the lights again for sure (I was a sound engineer as well) and everything worked, so it was just a question of waiting for the people to arrive. At about 5 pm it was packed, I’m talking about 1000 people in a small street ha ha, and so it was time for the show to start! There we’re some of the biggest singers from Holland and Belgium including Frank Galan and Corry Konings, but you won’t

X factor is a fix?! Wait.. WHAT?!, Well basically the first deadlock of the xfactor show was terrible! (You know my opinion) Apparently on the live show the producer Richard Holloway whispered into Louie Walsh’s ear a different choice of who to save for next weeks show!! Oh deary me.

Everybody has been saying for a while now about xfactor being a fix but until this was leaked I never believed it. Moving onto my fav artist of the showww... JAMES ARTHURRRRRRR!

U.K. Economy Surges 1% as Britain Exits Recession

Market Commentary 25th October Britain exited a double-dip recession in the third quarter with the strongest growth in five years as Olympic ticket sales and a surge in services helped boost the rebound. Gross domestic product rose 1 percent from the three months through June, the fastest growth since 2007, the Office for National Statistics said in London today. The pound rose after the data were published. The growth surge reflects a boost from the Olympics and a rebound from the second quarter, when GDP was affected by an extra public holiday. While the data may give some short-term relief to Prime Minister David Cameron’s struggling government, Bank of England Governor Mervyn King said this week that the recovery is “slow and uncertain.” That suggests the figures mask underlying weakness that could warrant further stimulus from the central bank. Services, which make up about three quarters of GDP, surged 1.3 percent in the third quarter from the previous three months, the most in five years, the ONS said. Olympic ticket sales are estimated to have added 0.2 percentage points to GDP. Production rose 1.1 percent, the most in more than two years, while manufacturing increased 1 percent. Construction output fell 2.5 percent, a third straight quarterly decline. While today’s data confirm Britain exited its first double- dip recession since 1975, GDP is still 3.1 percent below its peak in the first quarter of 2008. The report also showed that the economy has grown

0.6 percent since the third quarter of 2010, just after Cameron’s coalition government came to power. Cameron urged caution on the GDP data, saying “There are always one-off figures in all of these announcements but they do show an underlying picture of good and positive growth,” Cameron said. The U.K. data comes two weeks before the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee must decide whether to end its stimulus program or extend it beyond 375 billion pounds. Governor Mervyn King said this week that a “zig-zag” pattern of recovery is likely to persist. The pound climbed the most in three weeks against the dollar at 0.6 percent to $1.6130 at 2:49 p.m. London time, after rising as much as 0.7 percent, the steepest gain since Oct. 4. Sterling rose 0.6 percent to 80.42 pence per euro, the strongest since Oct. 15. Info provided by Currencies Direct, leading providers of foreign exchange.

180s Terry Hagenaars, Graham Dunning (Rendezvous), Jim Cheevers (PB´s Pirates), George Caine (Misfits) Highest game shot Terry Hagenaars (Rendezvous) (118) Game shot of the week Kelvin Bloomfield (Hub Meerkats) (84) Disbelief is the only word that comes to mind at this week´s Meerkats v. Bulls score line rather than the result. Not unexpectedly, the Bulls fielding a very strong side, took both points on their visit to the current champions. It was however a landslide victory, the home side gaining just one leg courtesy of captain Derek Kingsbury and that in the very last game. The table toppers outscored the champions and when it came down to a double they didn’t miss, a side of the game Meerkats are sadly lacking. A 100 from Alex Nikolov in the team game was countered by tons from Boris Ostrowski and Phil Waller, to leave 60. Amanda Skinner duly obliged with S20,D20. Graham Dunning made it 0-2 on D18. A 121 from Kevin Bloomfield rallied the home side in the third, but was countered by another ton from Waller and then D4 from Terry Hagenaars. Expecting to

stop the rot in the fourth leg Paul Durrant teamed up with old pal Alan Frisby and throwing first expected to put a point on the board. Ostrowski 2x100 and Ron Chadwick had other ideas and promptly made it 0-4, Ostrowski with just one dart on D20. The in-form John Eyre paired with Bloomfield in the next facing Hagenaars and Trevor Hartley. Bloomfield managed a 120, but the Dutchman 140,100 and then D8 made it 0-5. A great sixth leg from Skinner 125,120 was assisted by Waller finishing the 601 and D14 and 0-6 at half time. The story continued much the same way even though Kingsbury drew the singles for damage limitation. Martin Hastings won the seventh leg and match on D9 after Durrant had wired D8. Four more matches went the visitors way before Kingsbury saved the champions from a whitewash and blushes. The Meerkats managed only five tons or more in the match, nowhere good enough against a side like the Bulls who can certainly do better than the 12 they achieved. Skinner´s 125,120 and 100 was matched by Hagenaars 2x100 and 140, but Ostrowski came out on top with 3x100 and 121 for a deserved man of the match award. Unbeaten Hyenas travelled to Playa Flamenca for their encounter with Busters, who have struggled a little in their first 5 matches. Hyenas quickly opened a two leg advantage and looked like making it three with a strong second triple, but to no avail, Busters wiping out the advantage to level the match. The next two legs were shared for a 3-3 score line at half time. Bill and Irene Russell won their singles for 5-3, Hub captain Simon Williams pulling one back for 5-4. Mark Filer ensured the draw against Andy Brooker. Geoff Harvey gave the away side a glimmer of hope winning his team a fifth leg, but Ray Harvey took the 12th and last leg and both points Busters earning their second win of the season. PB´s reversed their fixture this week against the Mixtures apparently because of a mysterious murder somewhere in the area, yet to make the news. PB´s raced to a 3-1 advantage via Lisa Horwood D8 and D10 and Ray Hayes D4. By half time the Mixtures had levelled, Dave Wright doing the damage hitting D8 and D3. The first three singles went the way of PB´s ensuring at least one point for the draw. Mixture Tracey Simpson was next on against Brian Nash and needing 202 points promptly nailed a 125 leaving 77. Nash could only watch as Simpson put her first dart in T17 and the next in D13 completing the remaining 202 points in 5 darts, pretty good stuff for the girl playing some great darts this season. Unfortunately for the Mixtures Yvonne Roufignac featured next for PB´s and continued her fine form dumping Dan Jones on D12 for the match and

two points. Last leg of the evening featured league sponsor Debbie Mackleston and despite some good scoring from her, succumbed to an excellent 70 out from Horwood hitting S20 and the bull. Gogarty´s move up to second spot after their visit to the Sporting Misfits. A really high scoring game, Gogarty´s hitting 16 ton pluses, saw the Gophers comfortably 0-4 up with the Todd boys Mark and Jack featuring next for the away side. An expected win from them didn’t materialise, Karl Cooper and George Caine, spoiling the plot. James Brown, in his usual first singles position, won the 6th Gogarty´s leg on 74 (T14,D16) followed by Chris O´Brien winning the match scoring 125,95 and D20 and taking the man of the match award for his efforts. The next two went Gogarty´s way, which left Caine against Paul Easton in the 12th and final leg. Caine opened with a maximum Easton replying with a 123. The high scores continued, Easton narrowly missing his double for a 125 out, only for Caine to hit D17 and a consolation second leg for the Misfits. Gogarty´s captain Bill Warburton has made some smart signings this summer and his team definitely look title contenders, their real test will come against firstly the Meerkats and then a real tussle with Amanda Skinner´s Bulls. What a match in store! A solid performance from Madigans gave them a fine third win of the season over Breakaways. Leah Chesworth had her first outing for the home side and acquitted herself well, claimed captain Neil Voyce. Des Field gave his usual solid performance only for Jim Macey-Lilley to steal an expected man of the match award hitting 125,85 and D8 against an in-form Mike Douglas who had accumulated 2x140,121 and 125 during the evening. Cyril Harrison returned from his sabbatical and put in a good performance winning the last single of the evening. The Sun World K.O. Cup was drawn this week at Hattons Bar, ties to be played on the 8th November.

LA MANGA CRUSADERS BOWLS

Week 2 League Results Wildcats 7-2 Dave's Babes Black Dog Ladies 4-5 El Balcon Chicas Friendly's Temps 0-0 Bye/Descanso

What a week we have had! Last weekend we held a mixed drawn pairs competition with 16 teams fighting it out for a 21 end final on Sunday; and the final was a match to behold. The spectators were afforded a match to remember, one that came down to the very last end to decide the winner. Barry Simpson and Anne Sexton managed to overcome the challenge of Nick Mildon and Sarah Lowman by the closest margin of 18-15. Well done to all. Our Friday match against La Marina Dolphins was approached with a certain amount of trepidation as we only marginally won on aggregate two years ago when they successfully won three rinks. They were promoted thank goodness as we didn't need to play them during last year's contest; we don' t often lose 3 rinks at home. But here they were again, a friendly Club out to show us that the result two years ago was no fluke. They fielded a number of grass players and it showed. However, we managed to pull out all stops and succeeded in winning 5 rinks, but one rink went to the last wood on the last end; well done to Mike Warwick's team. Despite the result, the match was conducted in a most friendly and hospitable atmosphere and we look forward to the return match in the New Year. The rink scores were:- Ken Olerenshaw/Philip Don/Michael Warwick 21-17, David Letby/ Ann Grace/Sue Letby 28-6Dave Robertson/Peter Scott/Barry Simpson 29-7, Willem van Barneveld/Wendy Simpson/Margaret Scott 338, Sarah Lowman/Ron Stokes/Dick Osguthorpe 10-17, Joy van Barneveld/John Grace/Robin Lowman 24-12.

HORADADA BOWLS CLUB On Monday 21st of October, the Falcons kicked off the SABA div. B. season with an away game against La Siesta Appollos. The captain, John Bailey, was very pleased with the score considering the competition. For quite a few ends, many of our players struggled to find the correct line on many of the rinks. However, once line and lenght were sorted, Horadada became more comfortable and gradually made progress. Congratulations to the winning rinks of: Kath Reid, Pauline Murphy and Giuseppe Galelli 22-18; Rosemary Guppy, Roy Collins and Ann Hartley 14-12; Ann Allen, Peter Hinds and John Bailey 22-12; Yvonne Hurlock, Vince Skeel and John Hurlock 20-9. 4 rinks to Horadada plus the overall shots 105-97 and Points 10-4 Playing at home, our Condors team were not so fortunate against the Vulcans from San Luis. We only managed to win on one rink..... and this game is best foregotten!! However, we must congratulate the winning rink of Sylvia Fleck, Roy Thompsom and Barry Evans who came away with a score of 21-10. Sylvia, you seem to be improving with every game. Well done! After coming away with a good win against La Siesta on Monday, we were full of hope for the match on Friday against the La Siesta Blue team...... this was not to be. Winning on 1 rink and a draw on another gave us a disappointing 3 poinst at the end of the game. Never mind, next week offers us a chance to show what we know we are capable of!! The winning rink was: Wayne Jackson, Bryan Eatough and Terry Hucknall 19-16 Hard luck to the rink of Yvenne Hurlock, Brian Guppy and Mick Douglas who battled all the way to the end 18-18 Overall shots: Horadada 98-115 La Siesta, Points 3-11. Finally, internal compertitions are well underway.....please arrange to play your matches as soon as you can.

COUNTRY BOWLS REPORT

EMERALD ISLE BOWLS CLUB

By Lynne Bishop This weeks southern league ties saw both teams playing away from home. The Ramblers travelled up the N332 to La Marina to play the Sharks and won on two rinks, Lynne Bishop, Sue Norris & Eric Bishop picked up two points with a win of 20-12. Pat Patton, Bruce Aitken & Brian Patton took it to the wire by going into the last end on equal 14 shots a piece. On the eighteenth end they won another two to give us our second win. The team of Margaret Odell, Gerry Gough & Peter Whitehall also went into the last end on equal shots but just when it was looking good the Sharks Skip came in to turn the result in their favour. Overall shots :- C.B. Ramblers 79 (4) 100 (10) L.M. sharks. The Harvesters were at Quesada playing the Swifts, they also won on two rinks for four points. Winning rinks were Ben Noke, Les Turner & Ray Emmett who had a good win of 22-12. Alan Roscoe, Maurice Cass & Dot Davies finished with a win of 18-15. Two other teams were so close and unlucky to lose by just two shots, Pat Bradbeer, Brian Ray & Trevor Cox 15-17 and Sandra Mcilroy, Jean Turner & John Simpson 14-16. Overall shots:- C.B. Harvesters 92 (4) - 128 (10) Q. swifts. www.countrybowlsclub.com

Here we go again; the start of another season with the Claymores hosting La Manga Crusaders on Friday, 19 October, and coming out comfortable winners with 128 shots to 85, 12 points - 2 points. The biggest win was on Rink two: Sheila Adams, Lorraine Taylor & Len Bettam - 32-13. Other scores, Rink one: 18-10, Rink three: 17-15, Rink four: 22-12, Rink six: 2216. Our only loss was on Rink five, a surprising defeat of 17-19 for Barbara Collins, Brian Donohoe and Margaret Breen. A good start nontheless; well done Team. On Monday, 22 October, the Moonrakers played their first game at La Marina, a lovely sunny day (25dgs) after two days of heavy rain. Unfortunately we didn't start off very well, going down 95-124, giving us 2 points against 12. Only Barbara Collins, Ed McLaughlin and Margaret Breen won 23-15. Rink two were holding 8 shots until La Marina's Skip nicked it to win by one - that's bowls for you! On Tuesday, 23rd October, we had our first game for several weeks with the Hijackers. An enjoyable game for all, but more so for the Hijackers who ran out winners by 5 rinks to 3 in spite of overall shots of 134 to EI against 128 to the Hijackers. It's a funny old game, ain't it? Bill Allen.

ESTRELLA DAMM CRIBBAGE

VISTABELLA BOWLS CLUB By Mike Regan Southern League The Conquestadors took on the Cedars from Greenlands in their first match but I’am afraid didn’t fare to well winning on 1 rink but losing the others to go down by 2-12 The winning team was Kay Matthews Peter Cadell and skip Russel Hudson who won by 21-12 better luck next game, This weeks match for the Lanzadores was against the Elms who are our near neighbours from Greenlands and after some excellent bowling by both teams we managed a great win by 4-2 and also the overall to take a 10-4 victory. The best win this week came from the team of Sandra and Neil Burrows and skip Pat Harman who won by 19-8. Keep it going. Also a special thanks for the friendly team and reserves. SABA This week saw the start of the saba league and on a bright day ideal for bowling we had our first match at home and with an 8 points to 6 win over San Luis Trekkers we had a steady start to the Discovery League. Although most games were very close and competitive Sandra Burrows, Mike Regan and skip Jenny Bowman outplayed their opponents and came away with an excellent win 35--4. excellent start to the season Winter League This week we entertained our friends from Monte Mar but I think that they had problems coming to terms with our rink and we ran out easy winners by 3-1 and the overall by 88-49 to gain 8 points and it could have been better as our losing rink just lost by 1 shot on the final end. top team this week was Sandra Burrows, Alan Sinclair, Ann Rudkin and skip John Rudkin who had a great result to win by 39-11 the Berleen team got off to a bad start and try as they did couldn,t quite pull it back and went down to a good Monte Mar team Sad piece of news Stan Girvin died suddenly on Saturday and will be missed by many at Vistabella may I on behalf of Vistabella Bowls Club send our deepest sympathy to Diane and all his Family In the clubhouse are two competitions listed first a charity game in January for teams of 4 and also a notice for members who wish to play in the Vistabella Open so get your teams together and support the events The draw for all the winter comps are on the notice board in the club house , they all have play by dates so get arranging them and don’t wait till the last minute.

GREENLANDS BOWLS CLUB

SAN MIGUEL BOWLS CLUB

By Steve Hibberd The long awaited Saba league derby match between the Maples and Sycamores narrowly went the way of the former. Winning on 3 rinks and drawing on 1, Maples points score was boosted to 9 with a superior shots difference of 110-99. Well done you Maples: Brian Tomlin, Vic Mahomet, Marilyn Fryatt 22-6. Jeannie Clements, Averil Toozer, Dave O'Sullivan 22-14. May Makay, Sue Mahomet, Steve Westall 20-12. Sheila Stead, Phil Goodfellow, Angie Goodfellow 24-24. Come on you Sycamores: Zoe Wilcock, Jim Wilcock, Ken Parker 21-12. Graham Bater, Mike Kilby, Pete Tomkins 22-10. Marina Beardsall, Lin Miller, Alan Brown 24-24. Our other Saba league team, the Chestnuts, ventured to San Miguel to play their Comets, where although they won on 3 and drew on 1 rink, they narrowly lost on shots to draw the match 7-7. Congratulations: Terry Lawton, Charles Langois, Graham Watt 17-16. Eric Thomas, Lyn Morris, Phil Heyes 23-16. Helen Langlois, Mike Cassidy, Glyn Inwood 20-11. John O'Brien, John Wray, Dave Webb 15-15. Chris Dewer sends his thanks to the winning friendly Sheila Hewett, Doreen Watt & Dave Thompson. Benitichell (BBC) arrived at Greenlands full of confidence for their winter league match, following a great start to the season, but they were soon to get a lesson in bowls! Superb wins for Lynn Greenland, Bobbie Sims, Steve Cantley & Bill Pain 18-15, Sue Johnson, Mike Veale, Barry Collins & Dave Greenland 18-15, plus Gail Watson, Wendy Latham, Fred Willshire & Barry Latham 20-15, contributed to a moral boosting 8-2 victory. Not to be outdone, the Berleen rink of Di Lawton, Phil Goodfellow, Noel Cork & Colin Lloyd, triumphed handsomely 34-12, and although the other rink lost, 2 points were gained through combined shots of 51-33. Now on to Friday's Southern League matches. With the Oaks having already played their match, it was left to the Elms to fly Greenlands flag in the top division. Facing a strong Lanzadores team at Vistabella, they won on only 2 rinks, and were unfortunately beaten by 10 points to 4. Here's the points winners: May Mackay, Mike Thomas, Vic Mahomet 16-15. Jan Pocock, Ken Parker, Brian Pocock 24-7. Captain Bobbie Sims wishes to send a big thank you to Mary & Phil Lockley, John O'Brien & Phil Goodfellow for playing in the friendlies at the last minute. Last but not least, the Cedars were also playing over at Vistabella, but unlike their brothers the Elms, came away victorious. Against the Conquistadores (who remembers that classic late 60s Procol Harem record of the same name?), they certainly did the business, as they romped to a 12-2 success. Hip, hip, hooray: Nadine Bater, Eileen Merrick, Jack Redfern 23-12. Fred Tilley, Penny Tomkins, Ted Upham 24-13. Margaret Dewar, Zoe Wilcock, Jim Wilcock 21-15. Marina Beardsall, Steph Taylor, Alan Brown 27-5. Keith Page, Mike Kilby, Pete Tomkins 15-14.

By Janet Thomas SABA LEAGUE Pulsars played away to San Miguel Meteors. The first game of the season was not a good start for the Pulsars the games were very close on all rinks but we only managed to win on 1 rink and draw on another rink, congratulations go to Carl Eagle, Eileen McLaren and Ann Eagle they were the only winning team, we will try and get our own back when we play them at home. Total points for 3 Total Points against 11 Total Shots for 95 Total shots against 105 WINTER LEAGUE. We had our usual warm welcome from our friends at La Siesta. The game started on quite a damp carpet, which rapidly dried out causing quite a change of pace. The San Miguel teams coped well with changes and the results are as follows: Russell Marks 18 T. Brassington 12 Sabrina Marks 26 J.Cooper 11 Chris Collier 25 A Jackson 12 Stuart Denholm 28 D.Pickwick 10 Total Points for 10 Total Points against 0 Total shots for 91 Total shots against 45A very good result for San Miguel which consolidates our league position. The Berleen had mixed fortunes with the rink skipped by Lee Sinclair having a good win over a rink skipped by V. Moore, and the rink of Bob Eason’s losing to a strong four skipped by C. Chorley The overall result went to La Siesta. The shots money this week went to Lee (don't tell Rena!) Sinclair.

QUESADA BOWLS CLUB By Doug Beattie Report for the Swifts Friday 19 October - What a great start to the Southern League season! Winning away at San Luis as the Swifts played the Pumas. After 16 ends it looked as if we could have taken 5 rinks, as 3 rinks were neck and neck, but as the shot count shows it was very close and we just failed to cross the line on 2 of these rinks. Final score: Swifts winning 8 points to 6; 102 shots to 96. Winning rinks: M Bowness, M Richardson, B Armstrong, 21-11. W Holtham, F Beattie, D Leeming, 13 - 10.

EL RANCHO BOWLS CLUB Our new season in the SABA Voyager League started with a match between our own teams, The Pintos and Broncos, both having been picked to give more inter-play with equality. The two teams proved the process by giving us a score line of 3 rinks each with Pintos taking the shots by 116 to 101. It was a glorious morning’s bowls in good company, the mat proved a little tricky at first, being saturated over the weekend. But all found the line and length in the end, particularly as it dried out a little, for some it was their first on our mat when so wet, so well played all. Pintos V Broncos Keith Cunningham, Richard Needham and Stew Hamill V Graham Day, Ron Edwards and Irene Mangan 14-20. Edward Elsam, Malc Sykes and Rodney Wright V Anne Stone, Marianne Holtham and Alex Morrice 1619. Ros Holmes, Merv Armstrong and Carolyn Harris V Michael Barnett, Sheila Booton and Ron Booton 23-6.

Rob Clark, Ted Grace and Malc Elmore V Mick Ager, Sue Rainbow and Shirley Edwards 25-14. On Friday The Mustangs had a bye and The Raiders were away to La Siesta Silvers. With several bowlers playing away for the first time, we naturally struggled a little, losing by 5 rinks to 1. But we were in good company and all played well overall, giving us all a good morning’s bowls. Graham Day, Ted Grace and Shirley Edwards 12-22. Terry Buswell, Rob Clark and Gary Newson 15-17.

EL PLANTIO 2 GOLF SOCIETY – CAPTAIN VS VICE CAPTAIN Tuesday 23rd October 2012 Just 16 players turned up for the yearly matchplay contest between Captain and vice-Captain. Unfortunately the vice Charley Stewart couldn’t be with us but the news is that he is slowly recovering, so we hope to see you soon, Charlie! Going out in 4 groups of four the match started at 09.30 under the usual sunny conditions. The pairing in our group was me against the other George and Terry against William. My start at the first was perfect, on the green for a birdie and 1 up! At the 2nd George levelled the match and from then on raced forward, taking hole after hole. I won the last four holes with 3’s and a birdie on the 8th but the match was already lost. In Stableford George would have had an extraordinary score – on the 9th from way off the green chipping straight into the hole – and a major cut, that is how well he played! William put up a great fight against Terry, most of the time one or two in front, but Terry never let go and fought back, levelling the score at the last but one hole. Then on the 9th Terry landed his tee shot on the

green about 6 meters from the hole. William from way off the green chipped onto the green and with a long putt holed out for a 3! Terry’s putt was too long and then from a short distance he missed his 3 and therefore lost the match. Good for William – missing a major cut as well – and the vice-Captain’s team he was playing for. Back on the terrace the cards were checked and the results totalled, showing that with one draw, three wins for the vice-Captain’s team and four for the Captain’s team the cup this year went to the Captain. His team consisted of Ian, Keith, Gordon Wayne, George Stanhope, Terry, Dave Smith and Dave Swann. I don’t think I have to mention that the NTPs went to the usual persons, this time Ian on the 4th and Ray on the 8th hole. After the presentation the AGM was held, covering many subjects. The most memorable one that our number is slowly shrinking, a few new members but not enough to compensate losing some, like Terry and the three Danes, going back to Greenlands. We will surely miss your company but we wish you good luck and a lot of joy playing golf in the future, and most importantly good health of course! See you! After going home for showering and refreshing and picking up the partners we all returned to the Catorce in Benijofar for a good lunch and afterwards the presentation of the Cups. It was good to see my favourite ladies Christina – having sold her house going back to Edinburgh, wish you well – and Elsa, slowly but steadily recovering and soon playing golf again. The winners this year – apart from the occasional “outsiders” Frank and Kenny – were Ian, Gordon A and Ray. Time for a revolution, I’d like to say and urge all of us to throw them off their thrones! For the moment you’ll see them in the picture. Next Tuesday’s competition 30th October at El Plantio will be the traditional end-of the-month Medal. Put your name down by the Monday before and make sure to be there on Tuesday on time well before 09.30. See you all in good health and enjoy! Visitors are welcome, contact Ian Henderson, tel 966 71 6616 or mobile 636 116 230.

SAN JAVIER GOLF SOCIETY This week we had our Individual Stableford at Peraleja which was a late change of venue for us But many thanks to all of them at the course everything went very well. The weather was very good for golf on the day but the course played very long as a lot of the tee boxes red and yellow where on the back tees which made it extra extra long for the ladies and over 70's men. But everyone had a good time. There where some good scores on the day and the best today scores coming from two members returning from a few moths away overseas. Joe Flanagan with 41pts and Harry O'Neill 39pts I think the handicap secretary will be taking a close look at these two gentlemen. Also Ian sadler and Martin Dykes can look forward to a little cut. Must say well done the our top lady on the day Lyn Gallard who finished on 34pts.The course on the day played where only five players had a better score on the back nine for the rest scores where well down on the back nine. Ian sadler came out on top in Division one with 38pts followed very close by Jim Millin on 37pts. In Div two Joe Flanagan on 41pts came first and Harry O'Neill second on 39pts. In the race for player of the year Roy Herbert is still out in Front on 218pts followed by Barry Butterworth on 212pts then Dave Williams on 208pts all very close Results: Division One - 1st Ian Sadler 38pts, 2nd Jim Millin 37pts, 3rd Dave Williams 34pts, 4th Ken Carpenter 32pts Division 2 - 1st Joe Flanagan 41pts, 2nd Harry O'Neill 39pts, 3rd Martin Dykes 37pts, 4th Lyn Gallard 34pts Best Guest on the day Peter Flood 31pts.

LO CRISPIN GOLF SOCIETY By Gail Coultate, 24.10.12 - Alenda There were 35 members and guests who set out at first light on their way up to Alenda and watched the clouds disperse and the sun rise over the sea. On arrival the formalities were quickly dealt with and we teed off in front of a gallery of members eager to start. The grass was dewy and wet but the greens had just been cut so were good to putt on and in very good condition. All members seemed to enjoy the course some coming in with good scores even though two nearest the pins holes didn't have a winner. The staff are always very good and friendly and offer golf at a very good price, well worth more visits. The results are as follows: Gold Division: 1st Peter Morris 30pts c/b, 2nd Tom Johnson 30pts, 3rd Ray Brown 28pts, Silver Division: 1st Mick Budd 33pts c/b, 2nd Norman Potter 33pts c/b, 3rd Gordon Cobb 33pts.

ROCAJUNA CAPTAIN’S WEEKEND 2012

HUB SPORTS BAR GOLF SOCIETY VILLAMARTIN Having played 5 of the 6 Nicklaus Trail courses, the Hubbers made it a full house when they visited the Alhama signature course and what a delight. Although an hour plus from the Hub house, the journey was well worthwhile for the members and visitors alike. Approximately 6,700 yards off the yellows, Alhama is a challenge to find the greens and when you do eventually get there, they are slick and true. The day was sponsored by PJ´s Rent a Car, the popular airport transfer and car rental company, run in Spain by Hubbers Trevor and Alison Scammell. Together with co-owners John and Karen Goodwin, based in the UK, PJ´s are offering some excellent deals for golfers and families transport requirements whilst visiting the Costa Blanca. The Scammells, keen golfers themselves, Trevor plays off 12 with Alison a 20 something ferried many of the Hubbers to Alhama and also sponsored the numerous prizes for members and guests. A modest average of just 25 stableford points reflected

how difficult the Hubbers found this excellent course. They did however manage to accumulate 8 birdies the most popular of which was the Par 5, 9th succumbing on four occasions. Stroke Index One, the Par 5, 16th was birdied by Laurie Brain, no mean fete considering he amassed just the 22 points. The two´s competition was won outright on the 203 yard 7th, by no other than sponsor Alison Scammell, who had no hesitation in accepting her prize from Hub proprietor Cameron McHardy. The Hub Society´s captain Simon Williams thanked PJ´s for their involvement on the day and confirmed the rental company´s sponsorship for next year. Results: Best guests: 3rd Dave Lethaby (31pts), 2nd Den Noble (32pts), 1st Shaun Smith (36pts). N.T.P: Hole 3 Billy Harkin, 15 Cam McHardy, 17 Sam Salt. Two´s: Alison Scammell. Members: 4th John Eyre (30pts) 3rd Paul Durrant (32pts) 2nd Sam Salt (32pts) 1st Seamus McGeehan (33pts)..Paul Durrant

AT VALLE DEL ESTE Our captain’s weekend for 2012 was held at Valle del Este Golf Resort from 19th - 22nd October where 72 members and guests had a very enjoyable and entertaining weekend.

Very many congratulations go to them for the future. On the Saturday and Sunday 43 of those attending took to the golf course to challenge for the captain’s trophy. The course was in fine condition and some of those attending found it a bit intimidating but at least the weather although slightly damp on Saturday was overall very good. Congratulations go to Camillus Fitzpatrick for winning the captain’s prize for 2012. Results for weekend: Winner Captain’s Prize on 62 points – Camillus Fitzpatrick. Runner-up on 60 points – Bill Fyfe.

The day didn't pass without the heavens opening again, and caught out a few players who had anticipated having a dry round. However, the 28 of us who made our way round, played against our own handicaps and the conditions. The scores were not massive, and only a skillful few managed a respectable score. The results were as follows:Gold Category. 1st - Ali Rich - 35pts. 2nd - Fran Cummins - 28pts. Best front 9 - Peter Jones - 18pts. Best back 9 - Graham Lawrence - 15pts. Ntp - Tony Macmillan.

TMGS MATCH REPORT VILLAMARTIN, 24TH OCTOBER 2012 Oh these early mornings, still dark when the alarm goes off and the greens and fairways still damp, but 32 members and 4 guests turned up at Villamartin for a friendly game of golf, even though play was a little on the slow side, at least it wasn’t raining. The slow play was caused by the nasty rough off of the fairways, by all means have some rough, but not so you can’t find your ball when it’s a yard or so from the fairway! Anyway, enough of the moaning, it was a cracking day for golf, just a shame that the scores didn’t really reflect the conditions – oh hush about the rough will you. Don’t hit the ball there, simples. The Silver Division was won by, once again, the man with local knowledge, marshal Ian Parkinson with 33 points (of whom the Axe Man – the handicap secretary – is just waiting for him to score 37 plus). In second place was Pearl Sabine with 32 points, pushing Sandra Twentyman back into 3rd place with 31 points. Now, when the photographs were being taken, Ian was the “sandwich” in-between the two ladies and for some unknown reason, and this being a family site maybe best left unasked, but for some reason, she was heard to say to Pearl – or Ian – “Squeeze them in a little more”. Nope, I am not going to ask any of them what she meant, but Ian was looking a little perplexed and clutching his golf balls, tightly. Back to the results with the Gold Division and this was, once again, won by the Captain, Alan Rickers with 35 points, following him was John Eyre with 34 and one point behind him on 33 points was Steve Higgins. The Best Visitors prize was won by the only player to achieve his handicap of 36 points and that was Martin Pugh. We would like to thank Mr Michael Fernehough for donations of the El Coto Rioja which will be enjoyed by those that could find the greens on the Par 3’s. Next Wednesday, the 31st of October, sees the Society travelling to the Seve designed course of Alicante Golf. Whether you live over here or are on holiday, it matters not, we accept all stragglers to join us for a friendly game of golf on some of the best courses around for very reasonable prices too. If you fancy a game, just visit us on or call the Handicap Secretary on 966719604. We also have a game on most Mondays (always at Villamartin) and for that contact Steve Higgins on 968 97 8188.

CLARKES BAR GOLF SOCIETY Thursday 25/10/12 at La Serena It was decided to hold our Charity Golf Tournament at La Serena in aid of the poppy appeal for 2012. The day was overcast but warm enough and the course was in reasonable condition with very sandy and in many cases newly repaired greens making putting very tricky. The results on the day were as follows: Nearest the pin Hole 9 : Charlie Rodgers, Nearest the pin Hole 17 : Bob Lewis. Longest Drive Hole 11 : Martin Cunningham Winner with 37 points : John Winkley Runner up with 34 points: Bob Lewis After the golf we returned to Clarkes Bar for Snacks and Refreshments and held a raffle for the Poppy Appeal. With donations from members and guests we raised 225 euros plus a bag of loose change and a collection box from 1 member which was handed over to Mick the Grip.

MY KINGDOM FOR A STRIKER CF GANDIA ...........1 Some trepidation for FC Torrevieja going into this game without a recognised striker, both Ernesto and Koeman serving bans for last weekend’s indiscipline, and many would argue that with either in the starting lineup Torry would have made the journey home having secured all three points. Unfortunately we were left to the devices of ‘stand in front men’ and ‘midfielders pushing forward’ but even then the visitors should have done rather better. Although we can write off the first quarter of the game....we shall be kind and just say that the two sides were searching each other out, FC Torrevieja dominated large chunks of the remainder. With neither keeper called into action until 25 minutes into the game, even at that stage we were beginning to look forward to the journey home. And then the game sprang into life, Ex Torry keeper Vidal, now between the sticks for Gandia, getting down low to pull off a fine save from the head of Abel. Not to be outdone it was then the turn of his Torrevieja surrogate, Manolo, to bring the fans to the edge of their seats when he was equal to a spectacular ‘a la Beckham’ lob from Gandia striker Marcos. The game was beginning to wake up....if only for the referee to then spoil the fun. Three bookings in short time, none

It was all Daya from the off and within the first 5 minutes twice Marcos was put through but failed to even test the home side's keeper ! With all the early pressure coming from the visitors it was just unbelievable that it was still 0 - 0 at 20 minutes ! On 22 minutes a surging run out of defence by Francisco saw his pin-point pass well struck by Youssef producing a good save by the Horadada keeper. Unfortunately he was unable to hold onto the ball and Youssef following up, lashed it home for 1 - 0 Daya. It was still all the visitors with the home side virtually stuck in their own half having to rely on the very occasional breakaway. How it was only 1 - 0 at half-time defies belief as Horadada had been battered from the first whistle. The home side's coach must have read his team the riot act at half-time as Horadada came out fighting at the start of the secondhalf. For the first 10 minutes of the re-start the home side pressured Daya and there were some uncomfortable moments in the Daya defence, even Danni in the visitors' goal had to make a couple of saves ! On 53 minutes Horadada were clean through on the Daya goal but failed to make it count with the forward scuffing his shot. On 56 minutes Youssef missed a good

TITI OFF THE BENCH WITH LATE WINNER

FC TORREVIEJA .......1 of which we could really work out, saw the game brought back down to the level of the earlier period. However Oscar was determined to inspire the crowd and really should have done much better when his 42nd minute effort from close range drifted agonisingly wide. But despite their increasing dominance the visitors found themselves a goal down in added time when Corrillo converted from the sport for Gandia after Manolo had been brought down by Oscar. Torry continued to take the game to the home side and Inerejos could have had two while we were all regaining our seats. On one occasion he fired over while Manolo tipped his other effort around the post. Ten minutes remaining and a superb cross from skipper Jorge was met by Gasch who steered his diving header just inside the port for a Torry leveller. It was no more than the visitors deserved. From that point FC Torrevieja were camped in their hosts backyard and despite the dismissal of Vicente for a 2nd yellow and the need for them to see out the final 15 minutes with 10 men, they still took the game to Gandia. What a difference a striker could have made. Next up for FC Torrevieja a 5pm kick off next Thursday at the Vicente Garcia Stadium against CD Utiel who will still be smarting from their unexpected home defeat to Novelda.

chance to wrap up the game but moments later Jose smacked a long range free kick home for 2 - 0 Daya. Still Horadada continued to take the game to Daya but at 2 - 0 to the visitors there was surely no way back, or was there ? Their second goal enabled Daya to relax and see out the game in a more confident manner than most of their second half display. It was a good three points for Daya but the game should have been all over in the first 15 minutes as chance after chance went begging. The second half belonged to Horadada despite Daya's second goal. There will be sterner tests to face this season for Daya so coach Paco needs to find some shooting boots for his players as Horadada could quite easily have embarrassed the visitors. So 2 - 0 Daya final score played in front of a good crowd from both sides. The facilities were first class, it was just a pity on the day that Daya's play was not. This win will see Daya still top of the division for another week at least. The Official was always in control of a match that was played in a good sporting manner. Jota and Luis David had good solid games. For the second week running Fancisco was Man of the Match. His work rate and cool head, especially in the second half contributed enormously to the result.

UD HORADADA ....1 CD VILLENA ..........0 A game which Horadada should have won in a canter was decided by an 87th minute strike from substitute Titi who ran onto a low cross from a hurried Rojo throw in to beat replacement keeper Jose Carlos low at his left hand post. At that stage the Reds really were piling the pressure in their visitors having squandered a hatful of earlier opportunities that really should have seen the points secured and out of sight. This really was a game of missed chances in which both Ensa and Vardan could have had two or three apiece. Totally dominated by the home side there was probably only one Villena chance of note, a 3rd minute shot by full back Jose Pascual that rebounded off the Horadada post. The remainder of the play was totally dominated by Horadada who, as early as the 30th second could have been in front . Only an excellent diving save from the rather theatrical Ruben in the Villena goal stopped Robles from opening the scoring for the home side. With further chances falling to Vardan, Ensa and even Campillo the game should have been beyond the visitors reach as the two sides trooped off the field at the half time whistle with the score at 0-0. The second period proved little better for the Reds with Campillo firing over from close range in the opening minute. But as opportunities continued to fall to the home side, and with the visitors using every ploy to waste time, we were treated to a piece of pure theatre

Horadada skipper Campillo holds off Villena’s best player Enma. when Ruben went down under an Ensa challenge. The Horadada player was a yard from the keeper at the time but as Ruben rolled around, crying out in agony, he convinced referee Snr Coves Pastor that urgent treatment was required, the stoppage on this occasion that lasted a full 8 minutes. However justice was finally done when Ensa finally dragged the ball across the middle for Titi to grab the only goal of the game to lift Horadada back up into the play off places. And one final act of justice by the referee, just 3 minutes of added time despite the visitors protestations.

Another 10 mins of stalemate followed with Diego De Sheffield making some strong saves and Taylor Hirst tackling hard at the back until Jacarilla scored a soft goal. Ben took off from the center forcing his way up the pitch before crossing for David to finish off a determined goal. Fantastic performance and good result for this improving side. Man of Match Ben Naylor for determination and vision . CF Mil Palmeras Toros (Benjamines) 7 - 0 Rafal A damp start to the day was instantly brightened up by Mil Palmeras with first David Stam finding Luke Naylor in the box to score then Lukes cross going over the keeper to make it 2-0 in 3 mins.

Albatera 5-1 CF Mil Palmeras Alevines Sponsored by Talleres J Martinez Ford Garage Strange game this one as Mil Palmeras had most of the possession throughout the game only to be caught on the counter attack time and again. After going behind to a breakaway early on the referee awarded a soft penalty to the home team to give them a 2-0 lead. Into the second half and Mil Palmeras were well on top only fluff a host of chances and good positions. After two soft goals conceded again in breakaways Mil Palmeras finally got a deserved goal with the best move of the game.

UNDERWORLD BOXING AND FITNESS It was over two years ago when a VOLUNTEER-run boxing club was first established in La Zenia and despite the economic climate, and at a great deal of personal cost, founder Lloyd Sambor continues to fight on to provide essential sporting facilities to the youth of the Orihuela Costa. The club, appropriately named Underworld Amateur Boxing Club is situated in premises, underneath MAPFRE Insurance. It is run by a few dedicated volunteers who give their own time to help the local community. Sam told the Leader â&#x20AC;&#x153; It is a great community asset, one that gives a lot of its young members some purpose in life, and one that we have to work hard to keep going at all costs. Since the club first moved into its present location here in La Zenia sponsorship has been very scarce and a great majority of the funding has come from my own pocket, but now, working overtime to keep my own head above water I really need some help. Sam is a fully qualified ABA coach with many years of experience both as a competitor and as a coach at all levels of the sport. He said "Amateur boxing is one of the most rewarding, challenging and safest sports available to young people today. It isn't about knocking people out, it's about using your brain and your skills to outscore them. We show people how to develop a sense of intuition, quick thinking, a relaxed state and self-motivation. There are of course many other youngsters who use the gym and along with the half dozen or so adults who go along purely to use the equipment and keep themselves fit Underworld is also a well established fitness centre.

The gym is located just off the N332, behind the Veterinarian practice, in a 3 year old commercial centre, underneath the Mapfre offices. The club is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 59pm for boys, girls and adults from 10 years of age. It costs just 10euro a week for all three sessions. Sam can be contacted on 627 177 511 or 966 844 453. He is also available for Personal training.

ENTERTAINING EVENING FOR ITV ORIHUELA RFC JUNIORS

On Wednesday evening ITV Orihuela RFC juniors played against Solihull school in and 8-a-side match with Orihuela lending them one of their players. In a great spirit the match was played in three parts. Solihull came over in return for a school exchange with Orihuela. In the first half good free running rugby was played by both teams, but with the home team getting the edge running in 3 converted tries by Juan, Javl and Gregory and Jorge converting them. In the second part it was very similar to the first one with three more tries, two by Adrian and one by Vincente all converted by Jorge, but towards the end of the half Liam went over for the visitors, much to the delight of the travelling supporters.

In the final part/half of the match the teams were mixed up for a bit of fun with Liam going over for Orihuela this time and Jorge converting and then Javi, Gregory and Vicente going over for Solihull to make the final score 49-20 in a very entertaining and sporting match, which was enjoyed by everyone, players and supporters alike. Would like to thank Solihull for coming, and everyone who came and supported the event and hopefully this sort of match can be an annual event.
