The eagerly awaited International Home and Garden Expo takes place this week at the Castillo do Conesa.

The Minister of Culture and Tourism, Pedro Alberto Cruz, has confirmed on Monday that the new Murcia International Airport at Corvera will not be ready to go into service before the summer. However, in a statement whilst making a presentation at the International Fotografía Submarina Bahía de Mazarrón he told the press that this will be a reality, with the state government working to try to avoid further delay, saying “Right now that a date is precipitated”, what is clear is that “it will not be for the summer” and that “we are working hard” to minimise further delays in opening. Meanwhile, the underwater photography competition, which was the reason for the presentation, will take place in September and offers prizes valued at a total of 16,000 euro. Cruz said, “it is a competition that will give prestige and publicity to our waters and seabed as a tourism product”, and that “the region has a magnificent underwater world, with a great variety of fauna and flora, caves, spaces and remains of archaeological wrecks”, which together with the transparency of the water, at an average temperature of 20 degrees and the highest environmental rating, “make the Murcia coast one of the main attractions of the Mediterranean”.

FIRE FIGHTING PLANES ARE NEXT TO BE CUT

The Ministry of the environment has announced the decision not to renew a contract for the operation and maintenance of five CL215 aircraft, the largest in the fleet of 22 “flying boats”, which are used for fire fighting duties. However, the Secretary of State for the Environment, Federico Ramos, has denied that the move is a cost caving one, but is as a result of retiring older units to be replaced with the “latest and modern” equipment for fighting fires, “We are in a general scope of cuts, but in this particular case is not about cuts, it is a renewal of the fleet that has been misinterpreted”, he said. According to the Ministry, it was decided not to renew the March the 31st contract, because the government is “on track to

renew” its fleet of seaplanes in favour of apparatuses that are “more modern”, continuing that, “If there is one area in which our Ministry has made a special effort to keep the budget is around the fire extinguishing devices, since we know that we need them a lot”. The Canadair CL-215, which has the nickname, “Scooper”, was the first model in a series of fire fighting amphibious aircraft built by Canadair, later to be continued by Bombardier, and is a twin-engine, high-wing aircraft, which is specifically designed to operate at low speeds, as well as in gusting winds, such are often the circumstances during the spread of forest fires, and is capable of landing and taking off from short, unpaved airstrips. In August 2012, The Leader

reported how the deaths of two people and the destruction of 600 hectares of pine forest at La Torre de les Maçanes, just north of Alicante, was being put down to budget cuts in the sector. Sources said that over the last four years the Consell has reduced grants to hire and employ people clearing forests and maintaining fire breaks by over 20 million euro. As well as detailing various aspects of cuts, we also said that in Alicante, four years ago the amount allocated to maintenance and new infrastructure for prevention of forest fires was 13.7 million euro, whereas in 2012 it had been slashed to just 4.7 million. If the retirement of these aircraft is not a direct response to cuts, it would seem clear that the promise and commitment of maintain-

ing budgets is simply untrue, but as the Valencia region is already on high alert for forest fires, there is also no indication as of yet as to when the “new” equipment might be available as the contract for the existing aircraft has already expired.

LOCAL NEWS BITES Around 60 pensioners attended a briefing this week in Pilar de la Horadada, which was held by an officer of the Guardia Civil, offering information and help in identifying potential scams, which older people are sometimes targeted. Safety on public roads, in banks, on trips and at home were the four key areas discussed, as the councillor for older people, Elisabet Marcos, explained that “prevention is the most important part”.

The town hall of Los Montesinos has launched a new course in the Spanish language, which is running until the 17th of June, with the hope of encouraging integration and expansion of knowledge of Spain for foreign residents. Santa Pola local police have been conducting an audit of garages and driveways, finding a considerable number that have not applied for, or fail to display the sign which both allows access and egress, as well as preventing blockages by other parked cars. Currently, the town hall is working through 900 pending cases which would require the application and issue of the license. The education department of Callosa de Segura has announced that enrolment for nursery school entrance for the 2013 to 2014 academic period has now opened. Information and applications can be obtained from the town hall, who also advise that fees have been set at a scale dependant on the age of the child, with children born in 2011 being charged 124.26€ per month, for those born in 2012, the fee is 132.30€ per month, and the youngest, those born in 2013, will be charged a rate of 142.58€ per month. To visit the school you can contact the coordinator, María Jesús Vicente, by calling the school on 96 531 26 31.

The canine unit of the local police in Alicante have open proceedings against the owner of a Shih Tzu dog, after it attacked a 54 year old woman as she walked down a street in the city. There was no apparent reason why the dog decided to bite its victim, although the injury sustained to the woman´s leg was treated at the Vistahermosa clinic, followed by the lodging of a complaint at the central police station.

‘Twitters from the Atlantic’

By Bar rie Mahoney

Barrie Mahoney was a teacher, head teacher and school inspector in the UK, as well as a reporter in Spain, before moving to the Canary Islands as a newspaper editor. He is still enjoying life in the sun as a writer and author.

ROCKING THE BOATS Hatred, rivalries and jealousies are a feature of human nature that, sadly, can continue for many years. If left unresolved, they become poisonous and destructive with implications that spread far beyond the original squabble. Such rivalries apply to families, countries and even to islands. For most people, these seven islands in the Atlantic are a haven of peace and tranquillity. There is an illusion that these islands cooperate and work well together as an autonomous community within Spain. The islands benefit from a shared history, culture, mutual understanding, a shared dependency and have common concerns about the economy, unemployment, health and environmental issues, such as exploration for oil off the coast of Africa. However, is this glossy facade really true? Needless to say, much of this cooperation is really only skin deep. Bitter rivalries between the islands and, in particular, between Gran Canaria and Tenerife have existed for many hundreds of years, peaking during the horrors of the Spanish Civil War. Nowadays, we have only to attend a football match or other major sporting event between the two rivals to witness current manifestations of unresolved bitterness, jealousy and rivalry. Just add a dose of Spanish machismo on a very hot day, and you can imagine the result. Although Tenerife is the largest island, with the largest population of all the islands, the city of Las Palmas in Gran Canaria is the largest city on any of the islands. Indeed, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is the seventh largest city in all of Spain. In addition, the airport of Gran Canaria dwarfs those on Tenerife, with its large number of national and international flights, as well as being the third largest airport in

Spain. Tenerife and Gran Canaria have squabbled ferociously in the past as to which city should be regarded as the capital city of the Canary Islands, Santa Cruz de Tenerife or Las Palmas de Gran Canaria? The outcome was, of course, the usual compromise that they should both hold equal status. There was much anguish about where the islands’ prestigious universities and hospitals should be situated. The answer was to duplicate everything for the benefit of both islands. There is, of course, always a Canarian compromise, but only after much macho shouting, unpronounceable expletives and table banging. It’s just the way that things are done over here. The current spat between the Mayors of Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is another fine example of such a squabble. Las Palmas recently accused Tenerife of ‘cooking the books’, with its inclusion of over 13,000 “ghost residents” in its statistical submission designed, naturally enough, to enhance its quota of funding from the Government. By now we all know that statistics can be interpreted and distorted by politicians to mean anything. Predictably, the Mayor of Tenerife and the President of the Tenerife Cabildo are now accusing the Mayor of Las Palmas of similar evil doings with dark suggestions that they too “may be surprised” if they examine

their own statistics too closely. Despite the squabble, and much huffing and puffing, they will eventually kiss and make up - until the next time, that is. Of course, there is a small independence movement on the islands, which makes impressive and strident claims during local and national elections that the Canary Islands would benefit from being an independent state, completely divorced from Spain. After all, the Scots are trying to do it, so why not the Canary Islands? It is, of course, great rhetoric, but totally ignores the reality that the islands just do not get on with each other, and that they need Spain to keep them from capsizing the other’s metaphorical boats. The arguments and accusations go on, and will continue just as they have always done. After all, it is much like the love-hate relationship between Britain and France. They may dislike each other intensely, but support each other when the going gets tough.

BRITISH FUGITIVE ARRESTED IN BENIDORM

SPAIN THIS WEEK The government of Cataluña are proposing a tax on vacant properties and flats, similar to the controversial UK “bedroom tax”, but which will not be placed on private home owners, but will be used as a tax on vacant homes held by banks and builders. The aim is to try to encourage early rental and cheaper availability for families who may be facing eviction, when the government team have identified properties sat vacant across 70 municipalities. The Minister of Planning and Sustainability, Santi Vila, said that “we cannot afford to have thousands of families affected by evictions and have vacant housing stock, both new and second hand”. Officers from the National Police have arrested several detectives, businessmen and public officials in a police operation carried out in Spain arising from the ongoing investigation surrounding a criminal network uncovered last year in the socalled “operación Pitiusa”. In May last year, investigators arrested 73 people in twenty provinces, as alleged perpetrators of professional intrusion, bribery, discovery and disclosure of secrets and money laundering as part of the operation. These latest arrests, which occurred in several Spanish cities, derived from research conducted in relation to the smuggling and sale of data affecting the privacy of individuals.

Officers from the National Police have arrested 47 year old British fugitive in Benidorm, who was the subject of a European Arrest and Deliver Warrant issued by UK authorities for his alleged involvement in a crime against child sexual indemnity, for which he was sentenced by the High Court in Edinburgh and sentenced to 10 years in prison. The arrest, carried out by the Judicial Police Brigade of Alicante, took place on Tuesday at a campsite in the town, in which he is said to have resided. The arrest was enacted and the man has been made available to the National Court in Madrid who will now deal with the terms of the warrant for another criminal who sought to hide from the law in Spain. A Spanish association dedicated to gaining compensation for those affected by the 2012 Concordia ship disaster have welcomed some good news this week. A Royal Decree has been approved which will be used to determine the development of a standard to be used in determining the amount of compensation which can be awarded in such cases, which will allow compensation to be awarded on an individual and independent basis, rather than the application of a scale. European regulations have already determined that, should neglect be confirmed, a maximum amount of between 300,000 and 450,000 euro could be awarded. The president of the group, García Martos, stressed that, “Each person has had a different experience differently, which cannot be generalized”.

The Spanish Supreme Court has dismissed an appeal lodged by airline Ryanair against internet portal rumbo.es, after a case relating to the access of transparency of information on flight prices. The ruling denies the existence of unfair competition for lack of imitation or utilization of the reputation or the efforts of others. The conflict started in 2008 when the online travel portal filed a complaint against Ryanair for discrimination, vilification and obstruction. CEO of Rumbo Bravofly Group, Francesco Signoretti, said, “This court decision shows once again the importance of the rights of consumers. In keeping the prices of travel offers varied and transparent”. Data released this week shows that Spain ranks in second place, with Portugal first, for the amount of reduced traffic on the roads. Traffic on Spanish roads fell by 38% in the first quarter of last year, it was 50% in Portugal, with the number of vehicles on European roads also reducing by 18%, a factor which experts are attributing to the increase in unemployment caused by the economic crisis. As a direct result, Spanish drivers spent 25 hours stuck in traffic, which is 15 hours less than the same period of 2011. It may be no surprise that capital city Madrid is the most congested in Spain, ranking in 38th position in Europe, where drivers lost 33 hours of their lives stuck behind the wheel, followed by Barcelona where 31 hours were wasted in traffic jams.

Nearly one hundred people fought a wildfire on the terrestrial border between Spain and Portugal this week, which risked homes and agricultural land and could have had devastating effects. However, on this occasion, it was a simulation in which emergency teams could practice what to do in a real situation, enabling joint participation between both Spanish and Portuguese operators. Improving international relations and trying to find work for struggling teachers may be higher on the agenda of the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports, who are actively trying to find more jobs for teachers, by launching a recruitment campaign for bilingual Spaniards who are qualified and interested in working as a native Spanish teacher in schools in Bulgaria, China, Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic, Romania, Russia and Turkey for the 2013 to 2014 academic year.

LIONS DONATE TO ALPE

The Torrevieja Costa Lions Club led by Lion President Janette Bennett were welcomed at the Asociacion Comarcal para la Rehabitacion del Deficiente (ALPE) centre in Torrevieja last week. The welcoming party included ALPE President Fina Sala Estebal, Ana Lopez Ramos Head of Education, Conchi Boj Ruiz Head of Social Services and a whole host of excited young boys, girls and young adults who attend the educational facility in Torrevieja. The Lions visited the centre to donate a state of the art Epson Megaplex MG850 High Definition Projector and screen which will help enhance the existing facilities for the childrens' education. The children proudly inaugurated their new projector by showing the Lions a short laptop presentation on ALPE and what ALPE does for the children in the community. The projector has been long needed at the school and when the Lions were made aware that the cost was outwith the currently stretched ALPE budget, they agreed unanimously to donate the projector and screen. Ana Lopez Ramos thanked the Lions and said that Lion members will always be made welcome at the centre.

TORREVIEJA & DISTRICT NEWS A number of raised zebra crossings around Torrevieja are being removed, as they are deemed illegal by the road traffic network. Although intended to slow traffic down at sites where pedestrians may be vulnerable, the crossing being removed are all on recognised routes used by emergency service vehicles and therefore did not comply with the regulations of the traffic department. Sites, such as the one near the Habaneras shopping centre, close to the SAMU ambulance base, and on the road to the Torrevieja hospital have received priority removal, but further routes may also see a reduction in raised crossings which have caused some damage to vehicles. Fire fighters rescued a man who had become trapped in a cave at Los Locos beach in Torrevieja on Thursday, after he became stuck with a sprained ankle, following a sharp rise in sea levels brought on by the adverse weather conditions. A weather warning was in place for the entire coast and it is not yet known how the man became trapped, however it is thought that he may have been living in the cave, but he was successfully extracted by his rescuers. A spectacular fire swept through the third floor of a building located on the corner of calle San Pascual and calle Moriones in Torrevieja on Thursday, resulting in eight people, including children, being treated for the effects of smoke inhalation. The fire destroyed the entire floor of the building, and the injured were taken to Torrevieja hospital for treatment. The indoor pool at the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina in Torrevieja is playing host to 144 swimmers at the weekend, in preparation for participation in the Spanish Championship for representation at the World Championship Paralympic Swim to be held in August. The Councillor for sports, Luis María Pizana, accompanied by the Councillor for accessibility, Tomás Ballester, along with various dignitaries and representative of business and social groups alike, presented the initiative this week, with the hope of it being the first of what would be an annual event for paralympians to compete at the Torrevieja facilities.

The privately run San Jaime hospital at the north end of Torrevieja, has now been renamed and is called the Hospital Quirón Torrevieja, the same name as the group that now runs the medical centre. Still maintaining the high level of service which the site has become famous for, the hospital has a floor area of 22.000m2, divided into two blocks, connected together and has 120 single rooms, 4 suites, with separate living room and a modern ICU and other, specialist facilities. Torrevieja and Vinalopó lead the first two places in the ranking of management systems for all health departments of Valencia. Torrevieja has finished first with a score of 90.85 out of 100, between the 24 health centres audited, and Vinalopó, which covers Elche, Elche and Aspe, reached second place with a final score of 85.52 out of 100. The work on Torrevieja´s Colegio El Acequión is continuing on schedule, and it has been announced this week that the new site, with the capacity for 675 students, will be ready for the next, 2013 to 2014 academic year. Currently, students are being accommodated in various portacabins across the city, which has resulted in countless protests, to which this news should now offer some hoe for the future education of those attending the school. The Torrevieja Health Department has launched a health campaign, with the slogan, “More Sports, More Health”, and in collaboration with the Department of Health of Guardamar del Segura. The activity, referred to in the regional plan of health promotion in the Department, aimed to raise awareness about the importance of adopting healthy lifestyles.

BRIDGING WELLNESS? Following the announcement that the approval has been given to build a bridge over the N332 near La Regia, a number of readers expressed dissatisfaction via the website, www.theleader.info. Congratulations, Martina Scheurer and Pedro Mancebo on a job not very well done! I can finally see now how connecting Ray Kearney's ailing "Wellness Centre" with the Cabo Roig strip is more important than the future and education of the area's young children. Here lies the real insult: The complete incompetence of a local authority to make a decision for the benefit of its citizens. Please explain how or why it is more important to build a THIRD bridge across the N332. Surely two bridges within 200m are enough. Are the Councillors of the Orihuela-Costa so incompetent and disinterested in the future of the area that they would rather build a third bridge over the N332 than invest in the future of our children? A. Parent.

Why the hell are they building another bridge there next to one that already exists. It´s crazy when we need one near Lidl at Cala Mosca. It´ll be like bridge city down one end of the 332 with nothing at the other. Emma K – Who is paying for this new bridge? I am a resident and pay my tax but I don´t want to pay for a bridge that only a handful of people will use. Hardly anybody uses the existing bridges, you see them running across the roads right next to them, too lazy to walk up the slope. Spend the money on something else I say. Clive

UNBOUND TO PLEASE I read in your paper and hear a lot of people complaining about Orihuela City getting more than the coast and it´s the coastal residents who pay for it. What about those of us who live in the pedanias. We pay for your life guards but we don´t complain, we pay

for the beaches, we say nothing, we pay for your infrastructure, but all the time it is us that are ignored. We all live in Orihuela, not the costa, the ciudad, the pedanias, but the municipality. Why can´t we focus on that and forget this segregation? It is almost like the foreign residents just want to build their own mini towns here in Spain, but you are in Spain, which is a wonderful place, so why not try to adapt and integrate a little more. If you look closely, Orihuela Costa does have a library, in fact two now, it is just that they are not located within what your readers seem to define as an area near the sea, but they can always get the bus that the ayuntamiento subsidises and visit it in the city. We don´t have a bus, but we have the ability to visit some wonderful places close to us, because we are prepared to. I invite your readers to try it, forget the Orihuela Costa, which does not have any boundaries remember, so if it helps, consider the city to also be part of that illusive area you have created in your minds. Carlos J

Ed – Carlos, you might be interested to know that the councillor for the coast, Martina Scheurer echoed your comments and responded to you on her weekly chat with Mark Nolan on Exite Radio. You can hear the podcast on the website, www.exiteradio.com.

QUESAD A’S CA TS Dear Editor Many people have stopped me to enquire what has happened to the cats I feed underneath Johnson’s Supermarket in Ciudad Quesada, hence this letter to let them know the sad story. Over three years ago a tortoiseshell cat was abandoned and found refuge through a hole in the wall under Johnson’s supermarket. I fed and watered her before trapping her to take to the vet for a check up, spaying and then returning her to her refuge. Some months later another tortoiseshell cat was dumped there, which I trapped and took to the vet for a check up and spaying, I called her Popeye and the other

one Beauty. About seven months ago a kitten was dumped there and all lived quite happily together – no harm to anyone. Then about the last week in March some exceedingly cruel, despicable person poisoned them leaving them to die a slow agonizing death under Johnson’s where I was unable to do anything to ease their suffering. Why are some people so cruel? Why are they unable to live and let live and enjoy the wonderment and beauty of nature? Yours sincerely Joe (The Cat Man)

DOG OWNERS I have read your article in last weeks leader newspaper headed ' Police Get Tough On Dog Owners' with interest as I have a little dog and am a resident in Los Alcazares. Could you please answer me a few questions as I regularly take my dog wherever we go, and am worried about the fines you mentioned, as I have never heard about any of this information, and being a pen-

sioner cannot afford (as anyone) these fines. Do I need to add my dog onto my padron here? If Los Alazacres do not want this done, and I visit a different area how does that stand with that area? What licenses should be requested, and from where? When you say about dogs being off lead, is that if they are out on their own, or if they are walking with their owner but off their lead? I have not heard any of this information, before so am quite worried about it, although I whole heartedly agree on the fines for not picking up their dog waste. many thanks for yoyr time and look forward to your reply Mrs Jenny Taylor Contributors should limit their letters to 300 words. Views expressed in the letters are not necessarily those of The ‘Leader’ Newspaper or its associates.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE DEATHS NOW REACH SIXTEEN

Police officers who were called to attend an incident in Madrid in the early hours of Wednesday morning, made the gruesome discovery of a couple llying in the same bed, who had apparently died as a result of gunshot wounds to the head. The scene showed apparent signs that the 75 year old man had first shot his 68 year old wife in the head, and then turned the firearm on himself. However, upon closer inspection, the officers discovered that the man was still alive and his apparent suicide attempt had failed. He later admitted the facts to investigating officers. The case is being investigated as one of domestic violence, which is now the fourth such case

recorded in the Capital, the most recent one before this being only last weekend, when an Angolan born woman was stabbed by her husband. None of the four cases recorded in Madrid have had previous complaints of mistreatment or a restraining order. In fact, across Spain, thirteen of the sixteen deaths attributed to domestic violence have registered no previous complaints against their partners, according to a statement by the Minister for Health and Equality, Ana Mato. The Minister has therefore encouraged women who are victims of male violence to report their situation to the free 016 helpline, so that they can be protected.

MONITOR YOUR W ATER SYSTEM WITH POOL TECH I would like to introduce myself. My name is Heinrich Anton Marzisch, I am the CEO of Pooltec, a company which specializes in all features of Swimming Pool technology including installations, equipment, electrical and hydraulic engineering technology. We also specialize in a state of the art water leakage system. I would like to make you aware of a revolutionary device in the field of water-leakage control. The "Water Stop" appliance CLIP FLOW is now available to the public and once it is in position, it will control the flow of your water systems. As you are aware, leaks can be caused by household appliances such as washing machines and dishwashers, human carelessness, even simple handling errors like leaving open water faucets. They can also be created by vandalism malicious damage. With CLIP FLOW your water systems are always monitored, absolutely meticulously, and any irregularities are immediately recorded and displayed. Your water system is then stopped when you are absent. Due to the system being stopped this avoids any further damage. According to the UNESPA in Spain, there are more than one million water damage claims sdubmitted every year. Millions of Euros are lost by home owners because, in many cases, insurance companies will only pay for partial restoration and any basic repairs costs. The damage often caused also creates large water bills for the loss of water. These, of course will not be

paid for by insurance companies. They will also not pay for collateral damage such as damage to your furniture, personal belongings, documents and any type of memorabilia which often cannot be replaced. You then have to suffer the seemingly endless inconvenience it takes to repair or replace everything asl well as suffering increased water bills. It is then that you will realize why CLIP FLOW is essential to your property. Pooltec recognize the solution to this problem, as explained above the answer is called CLIP FLOW, an automated intelligent and smart safety valve, which detects the problem before it can cause any damage. Immediately from this monitoring, the system is closed, the main line and the further water discharge is also prevented. We now turn our system to you and as such we would like to offer you a full demonstration of this solution. Contact me by telephone on 966 798 727 or 644 230 377 or see the information on the advertisement blow. The product is available exclusively in Spain.

TRAVESTY OF THE ORIHUELA COSTA EDUCATION PROVISION This week there was yet another example in the papers about the terrible neglect of the infrastructures and facilities doled out by the authorities to the residents of Orihuela Costa. This time parents in Los Dolses were up in arms about the inadequate state of the school buildings and education facilities available to coastal resident. Promises of new education facilities lie in tatters, now even the security has been removed from the long awaited, unfinished secondary school that languishes without a contractor in sight to complete this building. Is it any wonder when those elected representatives who supposedly advocate for resources from the Valencian government have no links, liking or motivation to obtain resources for the coast when they can advocate for resources for the schools their own children, family members and neighbours actually attend. When the coastal area doesn’t have its fair share of councillors who actually live, work and have links to the Orihuela Costa community, is it any surprise when even Valencian financed projects all end up in the city of Orihuela. What motivation is there for councillors to press for resources from Valencia when they actually derive no benefits for them and gain no kudos from the community they actually live in? However if one looks at the educational facilities of towns with much smaller populations one can easily see that the situation is different. Take San Miguel for example, a small independent town with a pop-

ulation of approximately 8000 inhabitants. Here they have excellent brick built schools with adequate play ground spaces. How can it be possible that a town as small as San Miguel has such good schools when Orihuela Costa with a large population of 33,227 has children educated in porta cabins erected 11 years ago? The only viable conclusion to reach is that when a town has appropriate elected representation that can effectively advocate or the area in which they live they have a far more effective voice not only over the spending of their own budget but also when it comes to making demands from the Valencia. It is hard to even contemplate that the subsidised folk of Orihuela city would put up with the second rate educational facilities that are perceived as appropriate for the large population of Orihuela Costa. One could easily question whether this is a case of prejudice against the very mixed population that makes up coastal region, one that consists of a very large, ex pat community, all of whom contribute to the corporate coffers of Orihuela. How is it that a population of 33,227, just 706 people less than the city of Orihuela only get the dregs not only from Orihuela but also from Valencia? Sandpiper The population of Orihuela Costa need to ensure their voice is heard and the only way to achieve this is to ensure that residents are on the electoral register and make sure they vote in local elections.

How can a town as small as San Miguel have such good schools while our children are educated in eleven year old portacabins

AROUND ORIHUELA AND THE COSTA them on trees. Councillor for the Environment, Anunciación Belchí, considered that such activities promote knowledge about our natural heritage and conservation, saying that, “Participants will learn that with a simple wooden box may contribute, in part, to the restoration of an ecosystem and the eradication of red palm weevil infestation”.

The councillor for the environment in Orihuela, Anunciación Belchí, has presented a comprehensive campaign which she hopes will lead to a “cleaner Orihuela”, which includes several policies and a threat of fines for those who don´t comply.

Six students of the Orihuela Athletics EDM will participate in this weekend's Honour Division League tournament, to be held at the Estadio Turia in Valencia.

Waste bins will be adorned with new stickers pointing out the times of day that rubbish can be placed in them, from 8pm until midnight in the winter, 9pm until midnight in the summer, which is for the control of smells from rubbish left too long in the dustbins. It is also mandatory that rubbish is in bags, which are sealed closed. With fines of up to 750 euro for those who don´t comply, the first stage has been one of advice of pending prosecutions for failing to adhere to the rules. The same fine will also be levied on pet owners who fail to clean up the deposits of their animals, which will also be covered by a useful sticker of advice. In addition, there will also be a number of stickers on lampposts and other street fixtures, advising the number to ring for the collection of larger waste items. Officers from the National Police have been carrying out spot checks in businesses in Orihuela this week, with a focus on Asian stores, with the intention of monitoring the possibility of an increase in illegal immigration. However, the checks are all said to have been routine and random, as required by Spanish law, with the assistance of offi-

Orihuela will require 3.4 million euro in exchange for the court building in the city. Councillor for planning, Antonia Moreno of the PSOE, said that the amount complies with the value of the new building occupied by the courts, and the old building. If an agreement can be reached then the court facility will be able to remain in the building it currently occupies, and the municipal council will have additional funds to invest in the future projects for the use of the citizens. The streets adjacent to the Teatro Circo in Orihuela have returned to their normal, two way flow of traffic, having been reduced to one way streets a few months ago. Calle Antonio Sequeros and calle Gallo Crisis now flow in both directions and calle Rufino Gea has returned to the normal flow from before the recent closures. The Department of Environment organized a workshop to show how to build bird nest boxes, as part of their recognition of Earth Day, 2013. The aim of the activity, on Saturday the 27th of April, which was planned to take place in San Antón workshop, was to show both the construction of these homes for the birds, as well as how to mount

The Municipal Sports Centre of Orihuela Costa will hold a football camp between the 22nd and 26th of July, from 17:00 to 20:00, for children who will be placed in aged groups between 5 and 15 years. The objective of the activity is to achieve a balance between the technical and tactical sports teaching and training. All campus monitors are fully qualified and will be monitored during the event, for which registration opens on the 30th of April, until a week before the start of the camp.

NEW OPPORTUNITY WINNING EXPRESS - USA BOUND

GROWING OLDER AND WISER

The indigenous population of the province of Alicante is aging at a rate three times faster than the overall increase of the total population of Spaniards, according to the latest data from the National Statistics Institute (INE). Between 2007 and 2012, the number of Spanish residents in the Alicante area grew by 2.7%, but of the age group above 65 years, the increase was 9.3%. At present, there are 256,796 Spanish people over the age of 65 in the province, 13.2% of the entire population and 17.5% of all Spaniards, and 23% of the overall none-Spanish residents. Adding together both the Spanish and none-Spanish people in the age group, there are now a grand total of 365,146 people over the age of 65, which exceeds the number aged 16 years and younger, who total 303,165, for the first time ever. Apart from a drop in the late 90´s, put down to a reduction in birth rate, under 16´s are still growing in number, but at a slower pace than the more mature population. However, if you are feeling older than you should and want to mix with a younger crowd, Mutxamel might be the place to consider, as they have one of the lowest percentages of over 65´s in the area, with just 11.31% of the population exceeding that age. It is a similar situation in San Vicente

del Raspeig, with 12.56% of the residents of Spanish nationality, as well as Petrer, with only 13.5% of the residents of Spanish nationals over 65 years. On the opposite scale, it might be that you want to mix with those of a more mature and wiser life, in which case top of the towns for your visiting book ought to be Elda, where almost 19% of Spanish residents are over 65 years of age, but even higher is Alcoy, which reached 20.28%, but there are said to be differences due to overall population numbers which may give an unfair opinion on the statistics.

It may not have been frontpage news but there were interesting developments in America last month that could have positive implications for Milton Express and its Winning Express members. Three states, namely Nevada, New Jersey and Delaware have lifted gambling restrictions for its citizens. Director John Murray is already planning a business trip to source potential premises. “Naturally, we’re making no commitment at this stage”, said Mr Murray, “but we would be negligent if we underestimated the potential that would exist in America if, as seems likely, other states follow suit.” “In America”, he continued, “there is a far more open-minded attitude towards multi - level marketing. Whereas the British are deliberately conditioned to have low earnings expectations, a wholly different philosophy exists in the USA. People are encouraged to be ambitious which is why so many millionaires are created; it’s reckoned that every ten years around 100,000 people in America become millionaires thanks to network or multi-level marketing” Murray believes firmly that the Winning Express mission statement and earnings opportunity will appeal to American entrepreneurs. “Obviously, we’re going there with an open mind” he said, “but certainly finding suitable premises will be high on the agenda. If we are serious about opening up the Winning Express opportunity then we would need a USA base because Americans wouldn’t want their administration carried out in the UK or Europe, they’re extremely parochial” It is the potential for existing Winning Express members that excites Murray particularly. “If, and I stress nothing is certain yet, we do open in the USA then existing UK/Spanish members will have unrestricted access to promote the concept over there either by contacts they already have or by spreading the word via advertising in various USA mediums” Milton Express moved into its La Zenia offices in late summer last year, although the bulk of administrative duties are carried out at its Sheffield base in the UK, where they have resided since 2010.

STERLING GAINS MOST SINCE JULY 2012 AS U.K. A VOIDS RECESSION Market Commentary 26th April The Great British Pound rose by the most since July against the US Dollar after a government report yesterday showed the U.K. economy grew more last quarter than analysts forecast, ensuring the nation avoided a triple-dip recession. Sterling advanced at least 0.4 percent against all 16 of its major counterparts as Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne said the data are an encouraging sign the economy is improving. The Bank of England next meets on May 8-9 after policy makers were split this month on the need to provide more monetary stimulus to spur growth. U.K. government bonds fell as demand for safer assets waned. The pound jumped 1.1 percent to $1.5436 at 4:10 p.m. in London yesterday after rising to $1.5480, the highest level since Feb. 19. The U.K. currency strengthened as much as 1.4 percent, the biggest intraday gain since July 26. Sterling advanced 1.2 percent to 84.26 pence per euro after touching 84.10, the strongest since Jan. 24. Gross domestic product rose 0.3 percent in the first quarter, the Office for National Statistics said in London yesterday. Bank of England Governor Mervyn King has wanted to expand so-called quantitative easing for three consecutive months but has been outvoted by a majority on the nine-member Monetary Policy Committee, minutes of their meetings show. The European Central Bank is widely expected to cut rates at next week’s monthly meeting in the face of increasing poor economic data. The worry is that the downturn is spreading from the periphery to the core which in tandem with tighter lending conditions and disinflationary conditions filtering through from lower oil prices, the ECB medium term inflation target will undershoot. Dovish comments from several ECB board members add to the sense that the ECB is preparing for action. it is unlikely the ECB would be influenced by comments over the value of the Euro but a side effect of any rate cut will see the Euro weaken, making certain influential politicians very happy. The 17-nation currency slid 1.1 percent versus the pound to 84.29 pence. It touched 84.10 pence, the lowest since Jan. 24 in trading yesterday. The ECB has kept its main refinancing rate at 0.75 percent since July 2012. Many market analysts are expecting a quarter-percentage-point

cut to 0.5 percent at the central bank’s meeting on May 2. This view is compounded by the gauges of European manufacturing and services for April underscored weakness. German business confidence fell after winter weather hindered the recovery in Europe’s largest economy. Spanish unemployment rose in the first quarter to 27.2 percent, the highest in at least 37 years, data showed today. Today US GDP is due but with nothing like the hype attached to the UK number yesterday morning. Estimates are for a colossal (in comparison to the UK that is!) 1.4% growth in Q1 and 3.1% year on year. At current growth rates we will witness a large divergence in economic outcomes compared to this side of the Atlantic. The US Dollar should benefit from this.

‘Mike Probert talks Golf Sponsored by Costa Blanca Green Fee Services. Here on the Costa’s golf is one of the biggest leisure time activities for both tourists and resident alike and with this in mind we have secured the services of Mike Probert of Costa Blanca Green Fee Services to provide a weekly round up of local golfing events and topics and in conjunction with us at THE LEADER will provide discounted golf prices to all of our readers and run our golf competitions. The Green Shoots of Recovery? The global economic crisis has been lingering around now ‘like a bad smell’ for too many years to mention so at last it is good to be able to give you some positive golfing news for a change. The golf bookings in this area for the month of April are in excess of 20% higher than the same time last year and obtaining tee times has been very much a juggling act for golfers, agents and golf courses. I know that Scandinavian golfers have flooded the region and many UK golfers have just taken any opportunity to find some sun and play golf never the less this is still good news for many types of local businesses. However there is a dark cloud on the horizon because greedy hoteliers have lobbied the government to stop the short term private letting of properties by their owners. Now I have lived here for more than 9 years and can count the number of Torrevieja hotels on one hand so just where are all the golfers to stay when visiting the area? Many people were sold their ‘place in the sun’ on the basis that short term rentals would help to offset the annual running costs of the property only to now be told this could now be classed as illegal. Only in Spain could this type of thing repeatedly happen and our hosts really know how to shoot themselves in the foot on occasions. I guess that this will just force people to rent properties on a black money basis and then the authorities receive no taxes and payments so who really wins here? We at THE LEADER are committed to providing to our golfing readers affordable golf without the need to join a club or apply for a card but simply contact the number below to have instant access to discounted golf prices, many of which are exclusive to us.

HUB SPORTS BAR GOLF SOCIETY VILLAMARTIN

LEADER

....... By Paul Durrant

Hacienda Riquelme was the chosen venue for the Hubbers April event. The numerous bunkers, some say too many, on this course deter many golfers from visiting the excellent Nicklaus Trail layout. Put the driver away and introduce your irons to the fairways of Riquelme. The usual 8 prizes were on offer, including the mandatory nearest the pins and the PJ´s Rent a Car sponsored best guest. The varied handicaps of 7-28 had plenty to play for. Last outings winner Tony Flood was denied the opportunity of making it two in a row as his exploratory oil rig secured off the coast of New Foundland, beckoned his presence. Guests Dave Kinman (7) and Danny Warren (8) flew the flag for the single figure handicappers, but it was stalwart Trevor Scammell who picked up a couple of prizes and an excellent birdie on the short 322 metre par 4, 10th. Paul Aston made the only other birdie on the par 3, 15th, 190 metres. Sam Salt still made the podium in third place even after his severe 6 shot cut from last season, a fine effort from the talented youngster. Some steady golf in the same four ball produced the top two with fairly modest stableford points, John Eyre 31 and Paul Durrant 32. A creditable 30 points from the effervescent Elliott Wright won him the PJ´s Rent a Car best guest prize.

Results: Rent a Car best guests: 1st Elliott Wright, 2nd Danny Warren N.T.P: Hole 7 Trevor Scammell, Hole 10 Trevor Scammell Overall : 3rd Sam Salt (30pts) 2nd John Eyre (31pts) 1st Paul Durrant (32pts) Picture shows L-R Danny Warren, John Eyre, Sam Salt, Elliott Wright, seated Paul Durrant

TORREVIEJA GOLF SOCIETY

Tuesday 23rd April 2013 Stableford

At La Serena on 22nd April. We had an excellent turn out of 36 players for our latest visit to La Serena where it was decided to play a 4 ball team Texas Scramble. With each player having to hit a minimum of 4 drives, team strategy was important to avoid putting the higher handicap players under pressure to fit in their drives particularly on the holes where the water hazards were a major factor. With each team having 2 players with a handicap greater than 18 and receiving an allowance of 1/8th of their combined handicaps it was always likely that the competition would prove to be close with the teams separated by decimal points after handicap deduction. With the exception of the winning team who registered an exceptionally good score of 4 under gross par before their handicap deduction this certainly was the case and no team had a gross score worse than 1 over par which considering the difficulty of the course for higher handicap players was meritorious. The winners on the day were: 1st : Maurice Lea, John Mayers, Chris Byron and Yvonne Fogelin with a net score after handicap deduction of 58.2. 2nd : John Edwards, Hilary Summersgill, Frank Wigley and Mary Wigley with a net score of 61.0. Nearest the pin prizes were won by Maurice Lea, Tom Clarke, Hilary Summersgill and Roger Jones. Members are reminded that the Captain’s Dinner/Dance will take place this year at Fairways Restaurant, Villamartin Plaza, on Saturday 18th May and reservations and menu choices should be made with Marianne Hunt as soon as possible. The Annual General Meeting will be held at Rose & Crown, Playa Flamenca on Sunday 26th May commencing at 10.30 and details are posted on the web site.

Last Friday we were at Greenlands for the Don Sinclair Trophy. A nice day even though it was cloudy, full house with 36 players, about half of them from El Plantio and a shotgun start at 09.30 on all 9 holes. The top three at the end were Jan Erichsen third with 38, Gordon Wayne second with 39 – finally getting the right bottle of brandy he has been chasing our committee for for months! – and the clear winner of the trophy Paul Looseley with an incredible 45 points. Well done, all three of you! Afterwards we had a very nice cold buffet, so thanks to Haley and all Greenlands staff for a perfect organisation, something definitely worthwhile to repeat the coming years. Moreover it was good to see again the old buddies from years back. Today a small but select gathering with only 11 players so we couldn’t Waltz and went back to a simple Stableford game. Starting at the 2nd I had the company of Dave Swann, Gordon W and Kenny R. Kenny, having read that I had been disappointed not to see the master at work lately promised that it would be different this time and he really was true to his word. From whichever angle he scored five pars in a row, followed by a 4 for 2 at the 7th. An unfortunate 5 for 0 at the 8th didn’t stop the flow of 3’s and two birdies and a blob at the last hole to conclude an almost perfect demonstration of skilfully golf. At the same time I witnessed another master – of consistency – at work where I scored Gordon’s card. Gathering points at each hole and coming to the last two holes (9th and 1st) Gordon muttered something about his handicap and then missed two very easy puts for par, finally achieving 18 and 18 for the two rounds! I don’t think I ever saw a better example of handicap protection. At the presentation the NTPs went to John O’Brien at the 3rd and to Ray Housley at the 6th hole, taking it away at the last moment form the same John O’B. Third place was for the consistency master Gordon Wayne, hcp 11 and the score of 36 and then a tie for second and first with 39 points, so after count back the master Kenny Reddington, hcp 6 had to give in finishing second, while the winner today was John O’Brien, hcp 10. Kenny – with two extra points for the blobs – can look forward to a cut of a full shot, next time playing off 4.9. By the way, after the Wednesday game at La Tercia the match between Frank and Kenny was levelled at 4-4 so they are looking forward to a breathtaking finish at the last few days of the month! Next Tuesday’s competition 30th April at El Plantio will be the usual endof-the-month Medal. Put your name down by the Sunday before and make sure to be there on Tuesday on time well before 09.30. I’ll be off to NL for the summer, so John O’B kindly will take over the reporting. Wishing you lots of good golf and see you all in good health in September! Enjoy! Visitors are welcome, contact Ian Henderson, tel 966716616 or mobile 636116230.

LO MARABU GOLF SOCIETY In association with Costa Blanca Green Fee Services Altorreal 25th April 2013. For this month’s society meeting a group of 37 players visited the established course at Altorreal taking advantage of the excellent society deal obtained from Costa Blanca Green Fee Services. The weather forecast was dire but we had a lucky break and most players completed their rounds without getting wet and there were some excellent scores given the conditions. Today was our ‘Whacker’ trophy in memory of Shaun Dear and the winning scores were as follows: 1st – Dave Marriott – 37 points, 2nd – Alan Gifford – 37 points, 3rd – Dave Bensley – 36 points, 4th – Winston Blackwood – 36 points, Best Front 9 – Ian Allison – 18 pts, Best Back 9 – Andy Trefry – 19 pts. Dog of the Day Trophy – Andy Jones. Nearest the Pins: Mike Probert, Steen Tidemann, Dave Mason and Douglas Baldry. Longest Drive – Dave Mason After the game we returned to the Lo Marabu, which is located at Dona Pepa, Quesada for a welcome meal prepared by the bar and the prize presentation. And Ken Dear kindly put a drink behind the bar for the members. Our next official society meeting is at Bonalba on 30th May 2013.

The annual CBBA Championship of Champions was held from Competition winners the 15th to the 20th April. This year saw the introduction of two By Carl Eagle additional disciplines, Men’s pairs and Ladies pairs. The main venue was El Rancho Bowls Club but due to the extra number of games required Greenlands Bowls club was also used for the first two days. Nineteen of the regions twenty bowls club took part in at least 1 discipline and many of them entered all 7. The format pits the winners of each clubs internal competitions with their counterparts from the other clubs, guaranteeing a high level of competitive bowling. Due to the luck of the draw the early rounds saw some high level confrontations and one or two shock results. In the Mixed Rinks a very strong looking San Luis team went out in the first round against La Marina and the Mixed Trips also saw the exit of Javea Green’s trips team to a Country Bowls trio. The second round of the Ladies Singles paired Greenlands Lynn Greenland with San Miguel’s Sabrina Marks and this produced an epic battle, on El Rancho’s difficult rink eight they reached 20 all only for Lynn to take the victory with a measure that was a little way Javea four harder than anyone else had managed. The Mixed Trips had a further from the jack than either of these ladies would normally expect to very similar ending with only one wood remaining it looked as though we be. In the second round of the Men’s singles BBC’s Alex Fisher were set for a Benitachell victory but with his last wood Terry Allsop despatched multiple Spanish Nationals champion Keith Jones, while in the trailed the jack to give Bonalba three shots and victory sending the Ladies singles Last year’s Spanish National champion June Jones lost out Bonalba supporters into wild excitement. to Vistabella’s Maggie Furness. Session two produced another controlled performance from Tony and partLate Wednesday saw the first of the Semi Finals Javea Green’s Jan and ner Paul Brown who despite facing strong opposition from the San Luis Paul Brown and Ann and Tony McKenna took on Vistabella’s Beryl and Duo they were always in control and took the inaugural title. In the Ladies Mike Regan and Ann and John Rudkin in the Mixed Rinks, the Javea four pairs this honour went to Home team favourites Marianne Holtham and proved just too strong in an intriguing game which finally finished at about Irene Mangan who held off the challenge from Finca Guila’s pair. 8.15 pm. The second Rinks semi was held on Thursday as were the two The final session as always included the two Singles finals but once again Mixed Trips Semi’s. In the Rinks Horadada’s Kath Reid, Brian Guppy, Tony McKenna was in action this time supported by wife Ann and once Alan Pugh and Giuseppe Galelli overcame Country Bowls team of Lin and again they lead from start to finish to consign Country Bowls Lynn and Charlie Watkins, Geoff Paylor and Peter Whitehall, While in the Trips Eric Bishop to the role of losing finalists. The Ladies Singles was an enterBenitachell’s trio of Yvonne Browne, Mike Parry and Alex Fisher came taining tussle between Lynn Greenland and Janet Parsons but Lynn was back from a slow start to beat Monte Mar’s Pauline and Barry Woodfine nearly always in control and took the title. The Men’s singles followed a and Gordon Fisher to set up a final against Bonalba’s Phil and Annette similar pattern but this time it was Doug Brown who had the upper hand Sykes and Terry Allsop who beat La Siesta’s Bernadette McDonnell, Steve and so Brian Pigott after a great performance to reach the final had to setPond and Mike Kelly. tle for a very nice whiskey tumbler with the CBBA logo on it, the same as All the pairs disciplines and the two singles categories were played on all the other losing finalists received. The Winners received an engraved Friday, first on were the Men’s and Ladies Pairs, in the Ladies section large wine glass all of which were presented by CBBA President John Finca Guila’s Jean Mulhearn and Mary Cummings beat La Marina’s Albutt. The Singles winners also received a voucher from the Bowls Shop Barbara Forshaw and Sheila Kirby while El Rancho’s Marianne Holtham in Los Montesinos for a unique shirt with their name and the CBBA logo and Irene Mangan proved just too strong for Barbara Collins and Margaret on. Thanks go to Greenlands bowls club and in particular to El Rancho Breen from Emerald Isle. The Men’s pairs saw the very strong San Luis bowls club for the excellent work they carried out throughout the week to duo of Colin Lindgren and Ian Rogers triumph over La Siesta’s Norman keep the competitions running smoothly. More fotos: www.theleader.info Adcroft and George Richardson, while in the other semi the shape of things to come were beginning to form as once again Javea Green overcame their opposition from La Marina. La Marina’s Bill Jones who had played in the earlier rounds was unfortunately unavailable and so Len Daniels had to introduce a late substitute Brian Murray which on El Rancho’s fast green was always going to be a big ask especially against Javea’s in form Paul Brown and Tony McKenna. The second set of semi’s completed the pairs disciplines with the Mixed pairs and once again Tony McKenna was in action this time partnered by his wife Ann and once again the Javea duo were always in control beating La Siesta’s Sheila Chorley and Derek Pickwick. Joining them in the final were Country Bowls team of Lynn and Eric Bishop who put out Mazarron’s Julie Cooper and Dave Green. The Ladies singles Semi’s produced victories for Lynn Greenland over home favourite Irene Mangan and Janet Parsons of La Marina in a close fought encounter with Maggie Furness. The Men’s semi’s saw a good performance from Mazzaron’s Brian Pigott who overcame the experienced Alex Fisher while in the other Semi Doug Brown of Bonalba proved just too strong for Jason Prokopowycz of Quesada. Once again in Saturday’s Finals Tony McKenna had to play three games and didn’t he do it well. The Morning sessions were real nail biters in the Mixed rinks Horadada went into the last end one shot ahead but with Javea holding one to at least take it into an extra end Tony calmly drew in with the last wood of the match to give Javea a 1 shot victory, congratulations to Horadada who certainly pushed the

It was a very hot day and full of great netball. The First game of the tournament saw Rojales take on the mighty Madrid. Madrid were determined to overcome Rojales after the shock win against them last year.

Rojales made every pass count and started the first game with a great fight, and were determined to beat the team from Madrid for the second consecutive year. The attack play by Rojales was quick and practised which bought the ball down the court swiftly and into the shooting circle, with every ball into the circle being taken by either Goal shooter Jackie or put away by Goal Attack Tracy. The First half showed Rojales make some great moves in defence, with new set plays and tight marking keeping Madrid from scoring freely with the first half ending 10 - 1 to Rojales. Madrid made some strong changes for the second half in a bid to close down Rojales and reduce the lead. Madrid came back with 2 early goals making it 10 - 3 to Rojales but in the end the excellent team work coming down the court from the new Defencesive players to attack proved to much for Madrid with the final score being 18 - 3 to Rojales and the second year in a row Rojales take down the mighty Madrid. From the first whistle of the second game which was against a set of mixed international players made up of players from Team Rock UK, Marbella and Madrid, Rojales threw down the gauntlet with fast exciting netball, using some of the new set plays they have been practising during training. The passes were quick and precise, especially in the attacking third so shooters Sam and Tracy were able to position themselves well to score and matched the visiting team during the first half. The second half saw Rojales defence Claire, Louise and Tracey marking tightly and all making some great interceptions, but with some excellent edge of the circle shooting Rojales managed to keep in touch with the visiting team, with the final score ending up 10-10 in a very exciting game. The third game was just what Rojales deserved, in one of the most thrilling games of the tournament. Both teams played some great netball with end to end action, Some great shooting by Jackie kept Rojales on a level playing field. The Rojales defence marking tirelessly resulting in some great interceptions. The passage of the ball down the court was rapid and accurate which with only 1 minute to go the score was 11 - 11. Some great attacking play by Ronnie and Ellen gave Rojales a last chance to score before the final whistle. An edge of the circle shot was put up by Jackie and was the best shot of the tournament which gave Rojales a well deserved win 12 - 11. The final game was played against visiting players from the UK it was a very tight game with a lot of action taking place in the centre third of the court, Lin kept the ball moving up and down the court. The visiting team were fast to break and made every centre pass work to slow down the pace of Rojales. The first half ended level with the visiting team ahead with both teams playing some excellent netball. The second half saw the visiting team picking up all loose balls and mounting counter attacks against Rojales who were using some long passes in an attempt to get back into the game, but some excellent shooting and strong defending from Players from Team Rock gave them the win.

ABBEY ANGLING MATCH FISHING By Terry Screen We fished this week’s 5th round of the Spring Series at Nancy’s on the 23rd April and not Murcia due to it still being in flood. The water below the boom at Nancy’s was still pulling through quite fast and the colour was good, but above there was just a gentle pull on it but with an up stream easterly wind blowing making the float almost stationery. The fishing on this water is improving with just one dry net out of the fifteen anglers that fished, and the in-bait seems to be double or single maggot fished on 16s or 18s. The state of the river banks are atrocious with beer cans and bottles everywhere once again? 1st Lennie (Ex Cultural Attaché) Bolton with 11.000kg fishing the feeder using maggot Good to see him back with us fit and well 2nd Terry (Swing em) Screen with 9.150kg fishing the pole using maggot 3rd Stan (The Man) Roberts with 9.020kg fishing feeder and pole using bread punch and maggot All details are available on our website www.abbeyangling.com or from the Match Secretary Terry Screen on 965 32 8368

Both the Bulls and Gogarty´s won their respective matches to set up the clash of the titans. The Bulls must win next week as the Gophers have a superior leg difference, therefore a draw will give the title to Bill Warburton´s Gogarty´s. Its going to be mighty close and a draw looks on the cards, the same result as their earlier encounter at La Zenia. Back to this week where the Bulls faced a tough challenge against fourth placed The Hub Hyenas. Unfortunately, depending on what side of the fence you are, Simon Williams (Hyenas captain) had to take on the Bulls without a couple of his leading Hyenas. The home side still managed a creditable 4 legs but the Bulls took full advantage of the situation and were 0-3 up before Geoff Proudfoot posted an excellent 90 game shot for the hosts (S20,S20,bull). The remaining two pairs also went to the away side for a 1-5 half time score. Johnny ¨Vegas¨ pulled one back for the Hyenas only for Terry Hagenaars and Ron Chadwick to gain the two legs required for the match. Andy Brooker defeated Bulls skipper Amanda Skinner for the Hubs 4th leg leaving Martin Hastings to take the 12th and the match. Gogarty´s entertained the team of the moment, PB´s Pirates, who are currently pressuring Breakaways for the Hattons League Plate and they must have wondered what was in store for them after the 1001 team game. Three tons from the home side were countered by some good scoring from the Pirates to include 2x140 from Peter Ayres. Leaving 98, Pirate Ray Hayes coolly slotted home S11,T19,D15 for a tremendous start. Unfortunately the result wasn’t to be repeated until Ray Sanderson (last week´s triple double out master) took advantage of Chris O´Brien´s 85 bust to nail D16 for their only other leg. In between it was one way traf-

fic for the champions elect, O´Brien 2x100 and Kevin Procktor D10 in the pairs, plus a further D16 from the latter led the way for a 5-1 score line at half time. Yvonne Roufignac just back from the UK after some weeks, quickly found some of her old form with 115 and 121 against her formidable opponent Paul Easton. The Gopher doesn’t take prisoners and shook hands with the talented Roufignac after hitting D20. Ali O´Keeff played his usual steady game throughout, but was rattled in his singles by Jim Cheevers high scoring. Requiring 85 the Gopher calmly hit S15,S20,bull to raise the roof. Procktor and Ayre despite playing well earlier gave a wonderful exhibition of how not to play the 501 game, by being stuck on D1 way past closing time, never mind it happens to us all lads. Jack Todd wrapped up the match on S8,D20. Breakaways, looking to take the League Plate suffered a defeat at the hands of Hattons Hunks, sponsors of the competition. Some lively throwing from Mike Snow 2x100,1x140 wasn’t enough as the Hunks tightened their hold on 5th spot. Kenny Wilkinson won the match for the hosts whilst Steph Simpson was their man of the match scoring 3x100 and finishing 3 legs. With both Pirates and Breakaways losing this week it will be down to the last game next week to determine the outcome of the League Plate. Both have home ties, Pirates entertain the Misfits, whilst Hub Hyenas visit Breakaways. The Pirates are way behind on leg difference, but may just edge the title, watch this space! At the foot of the table the Mixtures and All Stars fought out a splendid draw. Dave Wright burgled the first leg on D18 after his team were left lagging 200 points behind. Eddie Fozzard livened up things with 100,140 and then D15 in the pairs, where all three went the way of the All Stars for 2-4 at half time. Eddie´s other half Lynn faced Debbie Mackleston in the first single both scoring well until the fateful double. Sometime later the league sponsor pegged out on her favourite D1. Some good scores from All Star Kevin Griffiths wasn’t enough as Marge Simpson took out the leg on D8. Being a little slow on his feet these days cost Dave Wright a maximum against Ray Pryce. A wobbling third treble 20 fell out before the ambling Wright could retrieve the then maximum but still scored 120. Pryce with no sympathy nailed D8 for the leg. Captain Lorraine Cox went on last to earn the Mixtures a deserved draw on D8. Still at the wrong end of the table the Honeys travelled to San Miguel and the Breeze Bar. All 12 legs were close so it was no surprise the outcome being a draw. There were however some good scores and a surprise. The experienced Breezer John Bowden hit a maximum, whilst Simone De Lacy 115, Ray Green 115, Ron St. James 100 topped scored for the Honeys. The surprise was Ladies Singles finalist and in form Jane Kelly facing Julie McCulloch 101 and losing to the amiable Honey. Jane´s partner Paul Baxter went the same way to De Lacy. Captain McCulloch was pleased with the result and particularly her own win and made her way back to El Galan with a smile as wide as the journey. Madigans were unlucky in their match versus on-fire Busters. Des Field´s 2x140 and numerous tons, plus Mark Taylor´s 140 was not enough to contain Busters barrage from Ray Harvey 180,100, Will Drummond 100, Peter O´Rourke 3x100 and Irene Russell´s 137 and 100. Busters narrow victory ensures them of at least a sixth place but with the distinct possibility of a repeat fifth spot they held last season. With captain Derek Kingsbury and son in law Alex Nikolov in the UK the Meerkats faced what could have been a banana skin game against the Misfits and so it appeared after the initial leg. Three tons and a 200 points lead didn’t deter the Misfits Ron Young who got the vital double. The Kats took the next two before captain Sonya Cooper placed her dart firmly in D4 for 2 apiece. The next four went the way of the Kats, before Young 100 and D10 reduced the deficit. Alan Ostrowski 100,D20 won the match for the visitors, Pete James gaining the Misfits fourth leg. KO Pairs Semi-Finalists - Player Profiles Rob Hawkins and Keith King. Qualified from the Mirador venue and play for Hattons Hunks. Rob is the younger of the two and out of respect names

Keith as his favourite dart player, whilst Keith names his as Phil Taylor. The older one was born in Wimbourne, but somehow supports Manchester United, naming Ryan Giggs as his best player. Likes nothing better than having a beer whilst sharing his toast at breakfast with Sophia Loren. A little more up to date Rob prefers dinner with Holly Willoughby and Kelly Brooke, enjoying the latter for breakfast. Doesn’t mind admitting to shedding a tear or two over his favourite film Bambi, which he has seen 11 times. Lived in London and supported Chelsea before making the big move 9 years ago. Title odds 11/4. James Brown and Chris O´Brien. Reigning champions, who will not let go of the title lightly. They represent Gogarty´s bar where James has run the popular food and drink establishment for the past few years. Born in Somerset the darts loving Bristol Rovers supporter names Muhammad Ali as his greatest sports person and boxing his ideal Saturday night viewing. Enjoys a game of poker in the evening and a round of golf during the day. Chris hails from Wales and lives in Playa Flamenca with wife Alison who is his favourite chef. Has been a regular player for Gogarty´s for the past few years using 25g darts. Depending upon the weather likes nothing more than a beer shandy or a Jack Daniels with a little coke. Stevie Gerrard and Liverpool are who he cheers for during the winter weekends and at the end of the day it has to be a Die Hard film. Title Odds 7/4. Geoff Proudfoot and Joe Miller. Made the last four by winning the Hattons venue, overcoming the tough opposition of Mark Filer and Will Drummond (Busters) 2-1. Anyone who knows Geoff will gather he is from bonny Scotland. An out and out Celtic supporter he would enjoy an evening meal with Ali McCoist and Gordon Strachan, but it would have to be breakfast with Simon Williams proprietor of the Hub, the bar they represent. Joe is a fan of Ian Rush and Liverpool and even remembers when the team was winning trophies. Enjoys a round of golf and particularly likes the style of Rory McIlroy. Dreams of sinking the winning putt for Europe in the Rider Cup one day. At the wrong side of 50 and off a 20+ handicap, time is running out Joe. Recently won the Monday League Singles and looking a lot fitter after several weeks of dieting. Title Odds 5/2. Ali O´Keeff and Paul Easton. Are part of the table topping Gogarty´s team and qualified from the difficult Rendezvous venue. Ali is dangerous on or off the dartboard. Regularly hits the treble and hasn’t lost too many games in his team´s quest for the title. He is also a martial arts expert who enjoys nothing more than a cup of tea with his favourite slice of cake. Is a talented musician and if he won the lottery would invite Bill Gates to a game of poker. Lives with partner Jenny. Paul has certainly done his bit for Gogarty´s this term, born in Newcastle and loves United with a passion (the Geordie United). Loves a bottle of San Miguel whilst discussing the merits of two old sporting favourites of his, none other than the Crafty Cockney Eric Bristow and ¨Beefy¨ Ian Botham. Another old timer features as his favourite film star Jack Nicholson with Zulu being his choice of film. The two women in his life are Emma and Amy. Title Odds 6/4. Semi-finals May 9th are at Breakaways as are the Finals a week later on the 16th. Play will commence at 8 p.m. on both evenings, all players must register by 7.45 p.m. Presentation of prizes will follow the finals on 16th May and all players must be present to collect their prizes. Everyone is welcome to enjoy some exciting darts and a delicious buffet, compliments of Jay Sharpe and Sarah Simpson of Breakaways.

SAFETY BECKONS AS TORRY LOOK GOOD CD BORRIOL ................0 FC TORREVIEJA ..........0 his well deserved point, saw Torry move to 6 points off the div 3 drop zone, following a weekend when the bottom 4 failed to make up any ground. So, with only 4 games remaining (2 home, 2 away), a couple of points should be enough to secure safety. Wouldn't it be nice to get them at the next game, Weds 1 May ko 5pm, when high flying local rivals Elche Iliciatano visit Nelson Mandela Stadium. New keeper Pepitiu was given his debut, alongside Vicente, Burguillos, Rafa, Dani, Jorge, Cuco Ros, Villanueva, Luis Carlos, Gasch & Koeman. Torry were well on top during early exchanges, with Koeman hustling Borriol's defence, and twice Gasch had shots blocked by covering defenders. They maintained this form when from corners, first Cuco Ros hit the post, then Jorge headed into the keepers arms. Borriol did threaten briefly, but an over hit cross signalled a let off for Burguillos, who had been left badly exposed. The halves final action involved Koeman forcing a fine

save, then from the resulting quick corner, Luis crossed for Dani, but he squandered the opportunity. Different half, same story, as Torry continued to dominate. Sub Guillem, then skipper Jorge, both tried their luck on goal, but although the scoreboard remained the same, good chances were being created. Against the run of play, the hosts did put the ball in the back of the net, but fortunately it was ruled out for offside. Back came Torry, with Villanueva shooting wide from a sharp angle, then Koeman aimed straight at the keeper from close range, following a Dani free kick. Koeman did eventually score, or so he thought, but an eagle eyed linesman deemed him to be in an offside position, so it remained status quo. An accurate free kick by Dani found the head of Koeman, who forced the ball wide, as the game entered the dying minutes. All in all, Torry did more than enough to win this match comfortably, but another point on the road must be welcomed. More information on the club website: www.footballtorrevieja.com.

FIVE GOAL MARCOS BLITZ’S CREVILLENTE DAYA NUEVA (INFANTILS G10s) ...8 UE CREVILLENTE ..........................2 The game went ahead despite some large rain puddles on the pitch. Right from the kick-off Daya forced their opponents into their penalty area. So it was no surprise when the home side took the lead on 8 minutes when Jose hit a long range shot that went over the goalkeeper's head. Further chances fell to Daya but what has become normal for them just lately continued again today, they just could not find the back of the net !! Crevillente grew in confidence at these missed chances and began to counter attack giving the home side's defence some anxious moments. More golden chances fell to Daya but as before were not taken. On 22 minutes Marcos latched on to a good through ball to double the Daya lead. This goal probably ended the Crevillente resistance, if it didn't Daya's 3rd goal on 24 minutes did when Jota with a strong run out of defence found Carlos, whose precision pass gave Marcos the easiest of chances. Just minutes later Marcos completed his hat trick with a close range shot. So 4 - 0 and surely the three points were in the bag ! On the stroke of half time Marcos got his head to a cross to steer the

ball past the stranded goalkeeper. It was 5 - 0 at the break with Marcos scoring 4. The second half was only a few minutes old when that man, Marcos, was at it again scoring his 5th and Daya's 6th. From their kick off though Crevillente went straight up the Daya end and scored a good goal. Just two minutes later a long distance shot went over the head of Danni in the Daya goal for the visitors' 2nd. Crevillente were now playing good attacking football but surely there could not be an upset, could there ?? Daya were now under intense pressure and were in need of a goal to settle their nerves. This goal came in the 53rd minute when the ever willing Carlos scored the 7th. Soon after Youssef did have the ball in the visitors' net but it was ruled offside. The Crevillente revival had now blown itself out and Daya comfortably saw out the remainder of the game. They even managed an 8th when a good run and cross by Francisco found Abraham who struck the ball well for the final goal of the game. The result was never in danger after the homeside's 3rd goal but Crevillente never gave up trying but were second best today. Marcos with his 5 goal haul was Man of the Match.

EARLY THADER STRIKE A SETBACK FOR COSTA C. F. THADER ..............................3 ORIHUELA COSTA CADETES ......1 On the back of last weeks great away win at Rafal , Costa were on the road again this time looking to improve from a 5 -1 thrashing earlier in the season. Unfortunately within 4 minutes Costa went 1 - 0 down when a ball split the heart of the Costa defence and wasn't dealt with which enabled the home side to take an early lead. From this the game then leveled out with both teams creating good chances at each end. Gudmundsson looking for his 20th goal this season looked dangerous in possession and was fed some great balls from Frost & Broadway in midfield. On 28 minutes costa gave away a cheap free kick down their left and several players took far to long to position them selves in defending the set piece which led to the second goal for the home side. Costa fought back and Callum Gildea & Kristjan Gudmundsson who linked up well down Costa's right side to push Costa forward into threatening positions and push the host's back. Liam Nicholas & Jamie Cockroft in the heart of defence were now winning and dealing with high balls from Thader which allowed Costa to gain more possession and allow Bass & Gudmundsson more efforts at goal. Final minute though before half time Costa shot themselves in the foot when once again a free kick on Costa's left saw the resulting effort go into Costa's net to go in 3 - 0 down which was very harsh and flattered the home side. Second half saw a couple of changes due to injury and only having 11 players this week saw goal keeper Jordan Marshall come out to left midfield and Ben

Quest switch into goal and Sam Broadway brought into center midfield. The game remained very even with efforts from both sides , although Costa were very unlucky when Gummi Gudmundsson out ran the Thader defence lobbed the advancing keeper the only to see his wonderful effort smash the crossbar on 67 minutes. Finally on 69 minutes Costa found the break they deserved when Patrick Bass was fouled by the huge Thader goal keeper who was getting frustrated by his own defenders not being able to cope with the constant pressure they were under. Bass took the spot kick himself and slotted calmly past the stranded keeper. Minutes later Costa should have had another penalty when a terrific solo run and effort saw Charley Frost brought down in the box , but away from home this was never going to be awarded. Despite pushing Costa couldn't pull back the mistakes they had made in the first half and Thader came away with the points with a scoreline that doesn't reflect the game. Next week see's Costa play their final home game of the season when they entertain Benferri 16:00 Saturday 4th May which will also be the last game Costa play at C.D.M. sports center that has been their home ground for three season due to the ridiculous pitch fee's they have had to endure by the greed of the center & lack of the town hall wanting a club to represent their area and provide a football team for their local youth.
