EUROPEAN TEAM BOWLS OPEN IN BLAZE OF COLOUR

he Opening Ceremony of the European Bowls Union Team Championship took place in a Blaze of colour at the Emerald Isle Bowls Club on Sunday morning. Held every second year, the decision to bring one of the most prestigious bowling tournaments to Spain is a measure of just how far the game has progressed on these shores in recent years under its current management. Spain originally submitted their bid to host the tournament with a formal presentation to the EBU two years ago in Portugal. The Leader Newspaper prepared the bid publication that was presented by José Luis Boto Álvarez, President of the Federación Española de Bolos, who travelled especially from Madrid. Once confirmation had been received of the successful bid an organising committee was established, the members of which have since worked tirelessly to ensure a successful competition. Sixteen teams are represented in the tournament, fifteen European Countries or states plus an EBU Select team which will take the number to a more manageable 16. The EBU squad includes two bowlers from Spain, Barrie Latham from La

Marina BC and Lynda Hall from Marbella. Spain will be represented by the current National Ladies Champion Jan Dando, of Indalo BC, Graham Cathcart, of Teide BC in Tenerife, Lynn Greenland, of Greenlands BC ,and Pete Bonsor of Quesada BC who won the SABA Gents Singles tournament just a couple of weeks ago. All of the players selected are current Spain International bowlers and are well used to playing in prestigious international competitions.

Continued from Page 1 A spokesman for the selectors told the Leader Newspaper that they feel that this Team could be the one to bring the European Championship Trophy to Spain, especially as all fours selected bowlers are currently in particular good form and it is being played on ‘home turf’. The tournament itself will be played at two venues, the Emerald Isle and San Miguel Bowls Clubs, both of which have spent an inordinate amount of time and effort in getting their venues ready and both now look to be in magnificent condition. Following welcomes from Javier Soler, on behalf of the Federación Española de Bolos, Cllr Martina Scheurer, Councillor for the coast and the National Director of Lawn

Bowls in Spain, John Muldoon who said that “on returning home he hoped that all players and supporters would agree that Spain had been the best option to host these 2013 Championships”, the formal opening was carried out by the President of the EBU, Eddie Williams. Mr Williams referred to the tournament at the ‘Friendly Games’ and finished by wishing competitors good line, good length and good luck. There then followed the raising of the Spanish Flag which was accompanied by a marvellous performance of the national anthem by local bugler and musician Jaimie Aparici. Immediately following the opening ceremony teams went off to get their challenges underway in the Mixed Rinks competition.

Some of the countries taking part in the competition are relatively new to European Bowling and include the likes of Israel, German, Switzerland, Turkey and the Netherlands. They will compete against the more established squads representing the four home nations, England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales together with Cyprus, Guernsey, Isle of Man, Jersey and three times hosts, Portugal. Competition will take the form of Ladies and Gents Pairs together with Mixed Rinks Having cost in the region of 40,000 euro to host, the Federation are hoping that the competition will attract large crowds of spectators, from both the bowling fraternity and from the general public, especially as there will be no other competitive bowling taking place in the region during the period of the EBU Tournament. Admission to both venues is absolutely free. Daily sessions will take place at both venues Monday to Thursday at 9am, 1230 and 1545 pm. On Friday, the final day, the matches will take place

at 9am and 1230 which will then be followed by the presentation of prizes and the closing ceremony at the Emerald Isle at 4pm. Results and daily schedules of play will be published on the EBU Website every evening shortly following the close of the day’s play. More information can be found at www.europeanbowlsunion.com The Ninth European Team Bowls Championships tournament will be the culmination of two years hard work by the committee and members of the Federación Española de Bolos. Please do go along and provide your support to this free event which will offer an opportunity to see in action some of the very best lawn green bowlers in the world.

ROYAL BRITISH LEGION DISTRICT NORTH DEDICATE THEIR STANDARD

Standards of the Royal British Legion are always given a religious blessing, known as a ‘dedication’ before they are brought into use or carried on parade. The ceremony symbolises the principles and the objects of the RBL. As such, having recently received their own new standard, the dedication ceremony was held last week for Spain District North. It took place at service held at the Capilla de las Mil Palmeras in the diocese of Pilar de la Horadada. The event was well attended by RBL Members and Guests from all over Spain, with the small

Catholic Church once again bursting at the seams. The ceremony was conducted by the District Chaplain, Reverend Canon Terence Sampson , who lives in San Miguel de Salinas. He began with prayers for the RBL which were followed by the pledge of service made by members. Thereafter the Standard was presented to Canon Terence by District Chairman Chris Wyatt, having previously been purchased and paid for by Chris and his wife Peggy. Following the short presentation the Standard was duly dedicated. Carried by the District Ceremonial Officer, Keith Carter, the Standard was then paraded with the other RBL Standards that were on parade from the Orihuela C o s t a , Benidorm, Albox and the Hondon Valley. The Royal British Legion Spain (North) consists of 18 branches covering an area from the French border in the north to Baza in G r a n a d a

Province. The presentation of the Standard to the District was made on the occasion of the Chairman’s notification of his intention to retire from the post at the end of his current term. Under the leadership of Chris Wyatt the Royal British Legion has flourished in Spain North in recent years culminating with the award at Annual Conference earlier in the year of the Maurice Cup, awarded, to the District deemed to have shown the most progress and greatest efficiency. Adding to the success of the day was the magnificent spectacle of the Torrevieja Pipes and Drums, led by Pipe Major Alex Hunter and the music of the Phoenix Concert Band conducted by Julie Schofield. The last post and reveille were played by Derek Hayes. Royal British Legion Branch members are involved in a number of different elements dealing with many welfare cases and raising much needed funding for the Poppy Appeal which is the next

big event to take place here in Spain with the launch to take place in Benidorm on 16th October. This will be the first occasion that the District North Standard will be paraded. The Orihuela Branch Chairman Keith Carter is currently appealing for a musician who can play the last post and reveille at the event. Free coach transport and a meal will be provided for the individual and partner. Call Keith on 965 32 8897 for further information.

R E P L I C A S PAN I S H S O L I D S I LV E R PA D D L E ON S H OW A C E N T U R Y ON By Andrew Atkinson A silver Paddle replica from a Spanish Galleon lies within the corridors of power back in the UK at Preston Town Hall a Century after being cast. The paddle - rarely seen - was on show at this month's Heritage Open Day at the Lancashire, Preston Town Hall, in the presence of the Mayor. "I am privileged to be able to show off Preston's wonderful historical treasures," said The Mayor of Preston Coun. Veronica Afrin. The paddle was made in 1913 out of solid silver to reflect Preston's Maritime History. Preston Dock opened in 1892 - was Europe's

largest single dock basin The original wooden paddle - made from the Spanish Galleon that was shipwrecked in the waters of the River Ribble - was accidentally destroyed when thrown onto a fire during the 20th Century. It is deemed that the Spanish Galleon shipwrecked in the River Ribble was linked with The Spanish Armada - which sailed from Spain in July 1588. The Spanish Armada sailed to Britain in a bid to overthrow protestant England lead by Queen Elizabeth I. History records also reveal a Spanish galleon was stranded off the Fylde Coast, which was salvaged by Cromwellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s troops. The stranded Spanish galleon was

amongst famous Shipwreck Treasure Finds - with gold and silver bullion - found at sea. For hundreds of years the Spanish plate fleets carried tons of gold and silver - from Potosi and Cartagena - into the new world and back to Spain. During sailings Galleons were shipwrecked - with shipwreck salvaging taking place over many centuries and continuing today. Invaders in the North of England boosted the population with Paleolithic hunters, Neolithic farmers, Celts, Romans, Anglo Saxons, Norwegians, Danes, French and Normans. And archive records state Spanish - said to be Spaniards from a shipwrecked Galleon. The silver 'Spanish' paddle is part of Preston City Council Regalia - that also includes a silver gilt mace crafted out of solid silver in 1702. Preston Dock was closed in the eighties. A new ÂŁ4.5m Ribble Link - the first canal to be built for 100 years - connects the dock to the Lancaster Canal and the national waterways network. ends

‘Twitters from the Atlantic’ 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.

ARE YOUR SAVINGS SAFE ? Many expats moved to Spain and the Canary Islands at a time when borrowing money from Spanish banks was a relatively simple and straightforward affair. Obtaining a mortgage in Spain, often through the developers of new build properties, and usually at a very good rate of interest, was something that many expats took advantage of. In addition, credit cards, often with very high credit limits, suddenly became freely available in Spain. Unlike the UK, the credit card phenomenon was a relatively new innovation in Spain, but was an opportunity grasped with enthusiasm by both Spanish and expats alike. As we all know, it is now payback time. Funds are no longer as freely available as they once were and Spanish banks continue to tighten their rules, often without notifying their customers. One of the consequences of this new fiscal tightening has been the impact upon credit cards issued by banks. Previously, as in the UK, credit cards in Spain were issued on the basis of a credit check, as well as checking the customer’s account history. However, from a number of emails that I have received recently, it appears that a new dimension has been added to guarantee that the debt will eventually be repaid to the bank. It appears that many Spanish banks now link credit cards issued to any deposits that are made with the bank by their customers. For those who are fortunate enough to have savings this will have little effect,

until they attempt to withdraw their savings. It seems that such customers will have their request for withdrawal of funds blocked until they have repaid their credit cards and other loans made by the bank in full. Only then will the deposit be released. From the bank’s point of view, this may seem a sensible move. However, for those customers who urgently have need of funds saved for emergencies, such as health issues, this can cause considerable delays, inconvenience and added stress. I recently heard from one couple that had to return to the UK urgently because of illness. They had a mortgage and a credit card with their Spanish bank and their payments were fully up to date; indeed, they had been responsible and model customers of the bank for many years. Unfortunately, they also maintained all of their savings, which were not insignificant, with the same bank. However, when they attempted to withdraw some of their funds, their request was rejected. After visiting the bank and discussing their problem, they were told that their deposits were held as security and that they would have to repay all of their mortgage loan and their credit card before their savings could be released. When I met the couple concerned, they were distraught and appeared to be ‘trapped’ in a situation whereby they could not afford to return to the UK, as they no longer had readily available funds. This is not the first time that I have heard similar stories, although this was the one with the most serious implications for the couple concerned. Most expats that I have spoken to are unaware of the current linkage between bank deposits and credit cards, and I suspect that this

is a change in the ‘terms and conditions’ that have been applied during the banking crisis. All banks operate slightly differently and it may be wise to check the current situation with your own bank. The moral of this story is clear. If you are fortunate enough to have funds deposited with a Spanish bank, make sure it is not with the same bank where you have a mortgage, credit card or a personal loan. Experts also suggest that it is wise to maintain a percentage of your funds in the UK - just in case. As the old adage says, ‘Don't put all your eggs in one basket’.

MOBILITY WEEK CELEBRATED ON TWO WHEELS Mobility Week, culminating in car Free Sunday, was celebrated in San Javier last Sunday with a grand cycling tour around the local weirs and canals. Arranged by the Department of the Environment there were plenty of participants of all ages who gathered on Sunday morning near the Mar Menor at the point where La Manga meets with the weirs. The area is one of the most eye-catching that can be found in the vicinity of Mar Menor. It is also extremely flat and as cyclists rode along the route they were able to see firsthand the footbridge project that has recently been approved in the Regional

Assembly of the Region of Murcia. José Miguel Luengo, who pushed it through the Assembly, explained how it would be built and the area that it would cover. He said that it would be a little more than a kilometer in length and that it would close the circle of the Mar Menor so that it could be completely navigated either on foot or by bike. The Mobility Week closed following an intensive program of activities that included a road safety education campaign on Saturday afternoon in Santiago de la Ribera with tests and interactive activities related to responsible driving.

NEUTERING CAMPAIGN UNDERWAY The Orihuela Town Hall is currently working with the association "Little Pod" in the neutering of feral cats on the Orihuela Costa. The operation began in Cabo Roig last week where the colony is particularly large. Once under control the work will continue along the rest of Orihuela

coastal developments. Animals are collected at night attracted into cages with food and are taken to a veterinary clinic the following morning. It is hoped that the exercise will control the number of stray cats that populate the streets and gardens of the Orihuela Costa.

DER OKTOBERFIESTA

There were high spirits along the Costas as worldwide enthusiasm for German atmosphere and Bavarian beer gripped the imagination. De Bassus Restaurant at La Zenia on the Costa Blanca was the scene of much oompah. Restaurant’s staff and partygoers celebrated the 200 year old Oktober Bier Fest, the world’s largest fair staged in Munich. Oktoberfest lasts 17 days and an estimated 6 million enjoy the occasion. The beer is stronger than the average tipple. Those who can’t ‘take their beer’ are

known as beir leichen or beer corpses. The Costa communities have shown more restraint whilst celebrating this now worldwide event.

TORREVIEJA NEWS ROUNDUP

The mayor of Torrevieja, Eduardo Dolón, accompanied by Tomás Martínez Domenech, inaugurated a new square in Los Balcones named after Tomás Martínez Domenech, after the area received a makeover from the municipal workers, named after Tomás who has long been considered an integral part of Torrevieja´s cultural and social fabric, with his involvement in Torrevieja Football Club, being the president of the Real Club Nautico and a member of the cultural society for the last 20 years amongst his activities in promoting the city. He was also awarded the title of Honorary Citizen of Torrevieja in 2010.

The trial against 16 people, reportedly members of a motorcycle group, who are accused of killing a notary in Torrevieja in October, 2009, begins on Tuesday. The 54 year old victim was allegedly assaulted a pub in San Pedro del Pinatar, and was gunned down in cold blood. The 16 defendants are charged with conspiracy, robbery and possession of weapons, attempted murder, murder, concealment and falsification of official documents. Residents of the Logosal complex on the urbanisation of Torreta III in Torrevieja have denounced the town hall for lack of cleanliness and maintenance of undeveloped spaces in the area, which they

say has resulted in the appearance of a plague of rats. They also say that they have reported the appearance of rubbish in the area, but say that no remedial action has been taken.

Socialist spokesman in Torrevieja, Ángel Sáez, has criticized the department of culture for promoting a hotel which is outside the municipal boundaries, and thus is providing unfair promotion of activities which are not part of Torrevieja. As well as using the municipal theatre, a dance festival being promoted by the town hall is being held in the Hotel La Laguna, Rojales, in a hotel which Carolina Casado, the highly paid TV presenter who hosted the recent Habaneras contest, which the opposition group feel collectively shows a lack of commitment and trust in the quality of the hotels in Torrevieja.

The Los Verdes greens party in Torrevieja have tabled a series of questions to the plenary on “the abandonment” of the famous “cigar” by the Torrevieja salt lakes. Originally destined to become a health spa, the project met countless problems and has now become a “ruin of degradation poses to the environment”, after standing incomplete for 8 years and the scene of a dramatic fire. The group say that the building has suffered “an accelerated deterioration” by the continued influx of water when it rains and the failure of some elements, and that it is now nothing more than an eyesore. The ACCEDE foundation has launched their second photography competition, “Ciudas Para Todos” in which they are asking for participants to submit up to three photographs on their vision of accessibility to the city for those with mobility problems. With a first prize of 1,000 euro, the awards will be made on the 3rd of December, the Day of the Disabled. More information can be found at their website, www.fundacionaccede.org, which is also available in English.

The Department of Equality in Torrevieja town hall has embarked on an awareness campaign, funded by the Province of Alicante, aimed at educating municipal employees in the application of the principle of equality. Torrevieja City Council approved a Plan of Equality between men and women in 2012.

THIR TY-FIVE% REDUCTION IN CLASSROO M SIZES - WHEN? It has recently been reported by the Valencian Councillor for Education, Culture and Sport, Maria Jose Catala that by the end of the present school academic year there will be a third less prefabricated classrooms. Already this year there has been a significant reduction in temporary classrooms and allegedly since 2011 there has been a reduction of 187 portacabins through the Valencian Community. Over the last few years fortunate Torrevieja has seen a major improvement in the building of new schools at both the primary and secondary level. There has been a substantial reduction in the number of temporary classrooms and many new schools have been built. The first week in September saw the opening of yet another new school, the refurbished and greatly extended Acequion School. This new school has new modern classrooms and large play areas. The opening of this lovely new facility will see the closure of another school consisting of portacabins. All Torrevieja secondary schools are modern, permanent buildings; the last prefabricated school was replaced over five years ago. No child in the public education system Torrevieja will spend their entire educational life in sub standard, poorly

equipped, hot, overcrowded schools with limited play space and no sports facilities. This situation is in stark contrast to the sub standard educational facilities provided for the population of Orihuela Costa. Here 50% of children will spend their entire school days in prefabricated portacabins with all the associated limitations. The secondary school is dreadfully overcrowded, the site has limited play space and the sports facilities are virtually non existent. How much are Orihuela Costa’s children loosing out on educational opportunities due to the dreadful learning environment? What needs to be questioned is why all other towns surrounding Orihuela Costa have good educational facilities for their children whilst this area is neglected and new school building projects abandoned. A cynic could argue that Orihuela Costa fails to receive any investment in educational provision because the population of 33,227 residents consists of over 80% non Spanish people. If this is the case then this is blatant discrimination not only by the Orihuela Council but more importantly by the Valencian Education Authority. Another argument is that the elected local councillors that are supposed to be looking after the interests of Orihuela Costa have not been advo-

Sub standard Secondary school on the Orihuela Costa

cating for improved educational facilities with the Education Department in Valencia for this location because they gain no political benefit from doing so. The Orihuela Council, based over thirty kilometre distance from the Costa consists mainly of councillors who have no interest in the coast, have no understanding of the needs of the residents and more importantly state that their political career gains nothing by spending money on an area where only 10% of the population are bothered to vote! It will be very interesting to see if Orihuela Costa manages to secure any investment for new school buildings from the Councillor for Education based in Valencia. I am sure that this area should be top of the list for removal of portacabins as in

no other area in the whole of the Valencian Community has 50% of school children spending all their school years in third rate schools. Why should the children of Orihuela Costa suffer? Residents will only acquire adequate services if we have more councillors from the coast and representing the interests of Orihuela Costa residents. It is essential that residents are on the electoral register and vote. 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.

ORIHUELA AND THE COSTA NEWS ROUNDUP The councillor for education in the Orihuela municipality, Rosa Martínez, has announced the allocation of 12,500 euro to cover the expenses of the EPA School for Adults, located in the IES Thader, until more permanent facilities can be provided. As part of the commitment to adult education and international residents, the Department of Education has also approved another course of Spanish language lessons for foreign residents on the Orihuela Costa. A wide variety of course have been provided to attendees, from computer courses, English, German and Spanish language, photography and even sewing, with a total of 510 people enrolled in these courses and 175 on the waiting list.

According to the coastal department, around 150 people took part in this year´s “Coastal Cleanup”, all doing their bit to make the Orihuela Costa a better place for all. The volunteers who participated in this initiative were not only coastal residents, with a number of participants from both Orihuela city and Hurchillo also joining in. As well as collecting rubbish, paper, containers, bottles and glasses, the biggest surprise was a collection of old tires. After the work was down, all those involved enjoyed a giant paella, as the Councillor for the Coast, Martina Scheurer, thanked those involved, saying that “the day was a success and we will try it again but perhaps more often”.

The management of the Department of Health in Torrevieja has announced that the Torremendo Medical Clinic will reopen from 8:00 to 15:00 from the 1st of October, returning to the pre-summer timetable. The centre had been open only from 8:00 to 12:00 during July, August and September due to cuts implemented by the Department of Health. However, a 700 signature strong petition demanding the service recovery seems to have had some impact of reversing the decision for the health centre that offers general medical services, nursing and paediatric care.

Orihuela Local Police arrested two men on suspicion of a burglary in the urbanización Entre Golf on the Orihuela Costa. During a routine patrol, officers were alerted by a security guard of the presence of two men on the roof of a house, who were apparently dismantling a telecommunications antenna. Upon arrival at the scene, the officers saw the two men, who quickly got in a van that was parked next to the house. The officers stopped the vehicle and found the men to be presenting a “state of nervousness”, resulting in the officers asking them to exit the vehicle. Having confirmed the identity of the two men, aged 33 and 40 years old from Orihuela, they inspected the house and found that that the door of a shed had been forced open a 5 metre telecommunications tower, along with 20 meters of cable, were on the ground nearby. Upon checking the vehicle, the officers than found wrenches, gloves, flash-

lights and a folding ladder. The Councillor for Tourism, Rosa Martínez, has announced the next stage of historic recognition of the municipality of Orihuela, with the first “Orihuela Mediterranean History Photo Contest”, in order to “promote the brand through the eyes of photographers in order to attract visitors and tourists”. Photographers will have two weeks to snap away at Orihuela, from the 1st of October until the 15th, and can then submit entries to the competition from the 16th until the end of the month. With the overall winner getting a 600 euro prize, 400 euro for second place and 300 for third, participants may submit three photographs on paper and in digital form, as a Jpg image. The prizes will be awarded after the end of the month, with the winning photographs exhibited at the opening of the new 38,000 euro tourist information office at the Marqués de Rafal.

PRESENTATION OF €1,250 TO FINLEY BAKER FOR MEDICAL EQUIPMENT Help at Home Costa Blanca held 6 fund raising events throughout June and July to raise €2000 for two children with special needs. We raised €1250 for little Finley Baker, grandson of Jane & Simon Morton of sunshine.fm. The money will help towards the medical aids he will need for his rare conditions. Finley is one of 5 children in the world, on this planet, with two rare conditions, Potoki Lupski Syndrome and Charcot Marie tooth disease. He is going to need a lot of support and love from each and every one of us throughout his life. His family know we have helped a little, thank you everyone who gave so generously and to the volunteers and entertainers who gave their time free to entertain us, you know who you are, you are all amazing, you all support help at home Costa Blanca in our campaign to help those in need, a massive thank you, you are ‘simply the best’. We will continue our campaign to help Finley and other children with special needs conditions. We are sad to hear that Finley and his lovely family are returning to the UK where he will get the support he deserves, in part due to there not being special needs provision in Orihuela Costa and the language barrier of course, how can you expect a baby to understand the instructions of therapists who do not speak the language of his family, who are so anxious to get the best treatment for him. We know his grand parents, Simon and Jane, Aunty Bethany and great grand parents Glen and John will miss them all terribly. We wish them all the best in the future and look forward to seeing them when they visit. The Sports Bar Flamenca Beach raised €365 on 13 July, sunshine sunset boat trip 27th June raised €360, the Emerald Isle €175, Casa Pedrera grand design house & Rosales Restaurant €350 Leanne, Rick together with sons Charlie and Finley and Grandfather Simon and volunteers from Help At Home Costa Blanca who raised the amazing sum of €1,250.

IS LIFE A PAIN? W ANT SOME RELIEF? GET YOUR BODY INTO HARMONY WITH BODY HARMONY AND NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE Christine Quinlan is an experienced and certified practitioner and also and Reiki Master/Teacher so at Body Harmony you are able to choose from Aromatherapy, Reflexology, Therapeutic Massage, Indian Head Massage, Reiki and Angelic Reiki, Bowen Technique and Hopi Ear Candling. My approach is Holistic so just imagine for a few moments of the effect that an Aromatherapy massage will give with some soft flowing strokes to ease pain and tension from stiff muscles, revitalise the circulation, remove mental stress and leave you relaxed but alert, drained of tension and better able to cope with the day. Or you may enjoy a skilful pres-

sure massage to the reflex zones of the feet to relax and invigorate the physiology of the body with a Reflexology treatment. You may even need an ideal stress busting treatment for all those aching shoulders, tight necks, tension headaches, eye strain and lack of concentration with an Indian Head Massage. Reiki is a hands-on healing technique that involves channelling the flow of Life Force energy through the body to encourage healing, detoxification and rebalancing. As it works on all levels of our being, Reiki provides a powerful tool to growth and personal transformation. Everyone can learn Reiki. All that is needed is a willingness to connect to this form of Life Force energy. Do you have a back problem, a shoulder problem, maybe sciatica or just some niggles here and there? Then the Bowen Technique may be right for you. This is a very straightforward, no-nonsense remedial therapy that is non-invasive, very gentle and very effective and works on the energy channels. Hopi Ear Candling is an ancient, mild and natural therapy that helps with Ear wax build-up, Sinusitis, Tinnitus, Rhinitis, Snoring, Migraines and Headaches, pressure problems from flying and many more. Why not consider becoming a Reiki Practitioner and share your gift with others or you may like to learn Indian Head Massage which is as rewarding to give as to receive. Consider learning to be a Reflexology Practioner to help balance the whole body, or even

learn to give Hopi Ear Candling treatments. Are you someone who would like to connect to Archangel Michael and be able to pass His energy to others or even attend my Angel workshops that will connect you to our angels and use their wonderful energy.

ABBEY ANGLING MATCH FISHING By Terry Screen The 5th round of the Winter League was fished on the right hand side of the Mercadona Stretch on the 24th September. With the stretch behind the Mercadona getting overgrown and with not enough pegs available, it was decided to fish the other side of the road. Unfortunately it was not the best decision that we have made as it did not produce, over the previous weekend four of the Club members practised on this water, and all had 3kgs plus the best weight was 31 fish for just over 5 kgs weighed, but the Carp on the day did not show and the weights were made up of Mullet with the occasional Carp. We decided to give this stretch of water a try, as at present the venues available are limited. 1st Dave (Yours Truly) Hoare with 2.706kgs fishing the pole using bread, 2nd Tony (The Flower Man) Price with 2.062kgs fishing the feeder using maggot, 3rd Lennie (Ex cultural attaché) Bolton with 2.058kgs fishing the feeder using bread There will be no Club Match this coming week as most of the Club members are away at Arcos de la Fronteria on a fishing festival All details are available on our website www.abbeyangling.com or from the Match Secretary Terry Screen on 965 32 8368

Despite some spirited throwing from the De Laceys and Jane Kelly, Julie McCullochs Honeys couldn’t prevent the Meerkats from taking all 12 legs at the excellent Hattons Sports Bar. Newcomers for the Kats Pat Abrams 2x100, 1x180 and Lee Maiden 2x100, 1x125 again performed well along with elder Kat John Eyre checking out on three doubles. The Honeys had at least three opportunities of registering winning legs, but couldn’t convert the all important winning double, just begging to be hit. Just the one double from the ever hungry Alex Nikolov this week who made short work of the very tasty Lasagne and chicken curry on offer at half time. Jane Kelly top scored for the Honeys with a fine 111. Was it a point lost for Busters or a point gained by Porterhouse this week at Paul and Julie Hallett´s Busters Bar? A not surprising draw, in my books, means Ray Sanderson´s side get their first point. An early 2-0 lead by the home side was quickly wiped out by Yvonne Rouffignac and Brian Nash who has apparently been partying for the past week celebrating his 50th birthday. I could have sworn he was older. Busters regained their advantage to go 4-2 at half time. Unexpectedly the hosts had difficulty in finishing and consequently lost 4 of the first 5 singles, however the remaining single was the most important going Busters way for the draw. Top scorers for

Porterhouse were Peter Ayres 140, Ray Sanderson and Ray Hayes both hitting tons with Rouffignac hitting a 121. Mark Filer was in blistering form for Busters scoring 2x100 and a 125, Babs Warren supported as usual with a 140. More double trouble down at Gogarty´s where the lively La Zenia bar entertained the Bears from Breakaways. The first three legs were somewhat of a marathon with the Bears holding a single leg advantage. Things livened up in the pairs with Del Lister and Cyril Harrison throwing three tons in their leg, followed by Mike Snow and Jim Scott, who has finally returned home after several months away following the footsteps of his grandfather in the Antarctic. Sue Wiles 110 and Sarah Simpson made it 1-5 at halftime. Brian Newton reversed the trend taking the first single. Richard Patterson 133 added a further single to reduce the deficit, but Snow, Lister and Harrison wrapped up the game for the Bears, with Ernie Wilson somehow scoring 143 but to no avail. John Linton made it 4 for the home side and Del Lister was man of the match contributing a ton and 61 out (S19,S2,D20) in the pairs followed by a creditable 18 dart single going out on 78 (T18,S12,D6).

EL PLANTIO 2 GS

LA ZENIA GOLF SOCIETY

Tuesday 24th September 2013 Medal Driving up to El P Kenny boasted that the match against Frank would change from 3-1 to 4-1. Paco’s revenge was swift and sweet as you will see! A big crowd with 21 players including 2 visitors, so with two single matches – Dave Sw beating Lyn Y and Gordon A beating Dave V – 17 players took part in the monthly Medal contest. Starting at the 6th with Elsa W and Martin R as my companions and nobody in front of us we progressed rather quickly scoring regularly in a good flow. That lasted until we finished the 6th second time round within an hour and then got in a traffic jam at the 7th. It got worse when we reached the 1st where a whole group of Scandinavians was waiting to start their game. A heated argument was going on between Ray and one of the Norwegians, only to be solved when Santiago stepped in and decided that we would alternate at teeing off. The pace was gone and with it the flow of scoring so after one and a halve hour over the last 8 holes we went back to the clubhouse. More than an hour later our last group came in, having been held up quite extensively. It was decided there and then that from the 1st October onwards we would tee off at 09.00 to avoid another bad experience. At the presentation the NTPs went to Ian Henderson at the 1st – my tee shot with the chipper landed just a foot outside Ian’s marker! – and to Kenny Reddington at the 4th hole. A tie for third and second with net 54 shots so after a count back third place went to Martin Rickman, hcp 9 while Ray Housley, hcp 8 finished in second. The clear winner with net 50 shots – that is 40 points Stableford – was Paco Bandito Frank Stanhope! His handicap of 9 will be cut heavily but the revenge was very sweet indeed! After the presentation it was announced that our AGM was going to be held on the 15th October after the match, followed by the presentation of all cups so make sure that all cups are returned in time. Next Tuesday’s competition 1st October at El Plantio will be the Yearly Battiste Trophy contest, to be played in a MedalFord format. Put your name down by the Sunday before and make sure to be there on Tuesday on time well before 09.00. See you all in good health! Enjoy! Visitors are welcome, contact Ian Henderson, tel 966716616 or mobile 636 116 230.

By Eric Lucas We turned out in large numbers with guests for September's President Trophy, at Riquelme on Thursday. Again the weather was kind to us, got a little hot as the day moved on. We played the normal full handicap stableford with four N/T/P'S and the usual two's pot. Nigel Cotton being the most improved player this season so far, stormed away on the front nine with an impressive score of 21 pt's but either the humid weather or saving his handicap slowed himself down on the back nine. I think it's was the weather as our other partner and I were feeling it a bit towards the end So the results were best member Nick Brooks 37pt's playing off 7, best guest Anna Hannigan bit of a family dispute here as Anna was the only one to get a two, Eddie her husband told her there was no two's comp today. So sorry Anna no prize. Roll over to next week. N/T/P.'s No 5 Mo Flint, No 7 Andy Kane, No 15 Marlon Donavan, No 17 James Hunter. Guest Andy Brooks won the raffle kindly sponsored by James at Gogarty's We retuned back to Gogarty's for the presentations. Thanks to James and his staff, once again for their service and great buffet. The new shirts have now arrived and are available from me Eric. Price of 20 euros, as agreed at the AGM this design and shirt will not be changed each year.

Rubber Spikes versus Steel Spikes Over the years the only ‘noise’ that would disturb me would be steel golf spikes on a concrete surface so when the powers that be decided that these should be replaced as a standard with rubber spikes I was delighted. However having played a number of courses in recent weeks following hollow tining where the surface is softer than normal and the grass longer than normal I am now not so sure. The poor green keeper must be pulling his hair out at the amount of damage caused by the rubber spikes on the surface of the greens which were ‘scuffed’ badly and with numerous heal and toe marks. I am sure that a number of years ago this was a successful marketing ploy by golf gear suppliers but I am under the firm belief that these spikes make much more damage to greens than conventional steel spikes. I have read the so called technical arguments on the internet but I really am not convinced. What concerns me is that the majority of the world best professional golfers still wear (and are allowed to wear) metal spikes. Says it all I guess!

GREENLANDS BOWLS CLUB The federated Valencian championships came to a close at the weekend, with 2 Greenlands trips teams reaching the final stages. Southern based rinks and trips teams needed to safely negotiate 3 rounds at Vistabella, before transferring to Monte Mar for the final stages, where they faced teams from the north. Although our 3 rinks teams gave a good account of themselves, they couldn't quite qualify for the next stage. We entered 5 trips teams, which was a good effort from our club - well done to you all. But, it was the trio of Penny Tomkins, plus Florence & Mike Edwards, who performed the best, going out at the semi final stage to Finca Guila. Having got to Monte Mar, Graham Bater, Sandra Heath & Steve Hibberd, came unstuck at the 1st hurdle, losing to Bonalba after squandering an early lead. On the subject of the federation, or to give it it's correct title, 'federacion de bolos de la comunidad Valenciana bolos sobre cesped', news has been announced of an exciting change in membership fees. Evidently, for the reduced annual payment of 15 euros (including insurance), a new membership is available for those that wish to play only in the community, president's and federation cups, the Valencian

EMERALD ISLE BOWLS Congratulations to Steve Pearson, Peter Whitehall, Lynne & Eric Bishop winners of the new 'Santa Pola Plate' group runner's up trophy. Also well done to Steve & Peter for getting into the Final of the Men's Pairs at the SABA competition held at Country Bowls Club, unfortunately losing to Pete Bonsor & Bill Pain. Finally well done to Steve Pearson, Gerry Gough, Lynne & Eric Bishop who were losing Semi Finalists to Keith Jones's team in the Valencia Rinks Competition this week.

We welcome all existing and new members to participate in the forthcoming new season. We have the Horadada Falcons in the SABA Discovery League on Mondays, and in the CBBA Southern League in Division ‘A’ on Fridays we have the newly promoted Horadada Royals. To give our teams a head start, we arranged two pre-season friendlies with Country Bowls, the first of which was played at Horadada on the 20th September. A friendly match it might have been, and with our friends from Country Bowls it most certainly was friendly, but extremely competitive as well and enjoyed by all. The trips results were shared, three rinks each, with Country Bowls amassing a better shot total, and the extra rinks match also went to our guests. The return match is scheduled for Thursday 3rd October at Country Bowls, and we look forward to hopefully turning things around on their track!

championships, as well as the fed 4s and kings cup leagues. Now by my reckoning, all that's not included is entry into the nationals, but when you consider that the difference in price is huge (15 instead of 37/41 euros), then hopefully more of our bowlers will federate, allowing GBC to enter more teams into the aforementioned cups/leagues. Please contact Sue Johnson for details on joining the federation. Jim Oliver writes, "Top prize of brandy for the Saturday bottle club went to new member Chip Chapman, with Tom Hill, Helen Langlois & Dave Webb following close in his footsteps. The anonymous winner of the spoon, again has donated the prize for next weeks winner does nobody want this elegant spoon? Turnout was slightly down this week to 26, due to members having other commitments. Look forward to seeing you all next Sat, 0930 for 1000 start. Cheers JO". A bowler turned up at his club to play, wearing one brown and one black bowls shoe. The club secretary drew the players attention to his irregular dress attire. The bowler was unperturbed, responding, "I've got another pair exactly the same at home!".

Due to the heat we had a poor turn out for our Arthur Clark memorial trophy event. However, Jim Houston had the highest score and was the outright winner. We had a better turn out for this months Chicken Drive on Sunday,15th, even though it was still very hot. Maria Brookes won the ‘spider’, going home with a bottle of liqueur. Lowest scorers were Sheila Adams and Alex Fay, went away with a dozen eggs each. Highest scorers Lily Stewart and Brian Kavanagh each won a chicken and a bottle of wine. The outright winner with a score of 25, shot difference +19, was Dave Close who earned a voucher for two meals at our Sponsors restaurant ‘Marina Sol’, Cabo Roig. 'Maritaos Kitchen' was the venue for our social 'F.A.R.T.S.' lunch on Wednesday, 18th. Once again it was well supported, and good food and drinks were enjoyed by all. Our social side is a great success judging by the numbers now supporting it, the only trouble may be finding somewhere with sufficient space to take us all in the future - happy days! On 19 September the Royal British Legion team made a welcome return for another 8 rinks match. A very hot afternoon had us all puffing and panting even before the off and, judging by the laughter, everyone had an enjoyable afternoon. The Isle won on all 8 rinks but as usual the final score was unimportant, it's the good company and camaraderie that count. A meal followed, together with the prospect of a return match at their place in the near future. Let's hope it's a bit cooler by then. With the European Championships starting yesterday both the EI and San Miguel are very busy making sure everything is 'spot-on' for the opening ceremony on 29 September. Fingers crossed that the weather is kind to us and that everyone enjoys this important occasion.

25TH SEPTEMBER 2013 – VILLAMARTIN. Many would have looked at the time for the start and groaned, first tee off was 9am which for a few is still night time. However, it must be said that the early start was well worth it and in general, 41/2 hours was enough to get round, which is an unusual occurrence for Villamartin due to the traffic it gets. It must also be said that apart from the 18th, the course is in very good condition for this time of the year. Today was, once again, sponsored by Arne Hansson and Evolution in La Fuente who kindly donated the winners prize and the NTP prizes of which all were claimed by James Hunter, Steve Higgins, Olga Haubner and Sandra Twentyman (yes she is back and again in the winners circle). The Best Guest of the day was one of the Yorkshire Ladies (and I write that with a smile upon my face with many a comment running through my mind) was Mrs B Nichollson with 34 points. The Silver lot had some good scores and there were two very notable ones where “partners in crime or love or whatever” Robbie Rae and Olga Haubner took 1st and 2nd with 39 and 38 points respectively. I will not repeat the comments of the audience and their thoughts on bedside habits of those two. In 3rd place with 35 points was Audrey Mellor and she shoved Per Skarnes who had 34 points into 4th place. The Gold boys fared a little worse but it was, once again, Darren Hancock that secured the winners rostrum with a very nice 35 points off of a 4 handicap who pushed both 34 point scorers John Mellor and Captain Mick Kennedy into 2nd and 3rd place with Secretary Alan Rixson somehow wangling 4th spot with a count back…tis time we went to the “lower handicap wins” procedure.

HUB SPORTS BAR GS AT VILLAMARTIN Simon Williams chose the illustrious surroundings of Las Colinas for his captain´s day this week. A large turnout for the popular publican to witness his drive-in and all had their eyes firmly fixed on the distant 200m bunkers on the first. Unfortunately Mr. Williams tee shot could only race to a paltry 41 metres amid stifled laughter from the unforgiving spectators. Much superior golf followed however, not I might add from the captain. A steady 8 pars from Jim Singer and the same from John Eyre were not enough from these two stalwarts as Dave Lethaby trounced the opposition with a brilliant 10 pars plus 2 birdies. Two other birdies came from the aforementioned Singer and Eyre. Lethaby´s efforts gave him a match winning total of 43 points,

which is clearly bandit country, but he has however been playing well of late, nevertheless, his 12 handicap will now be a thing of the past. The captain generously handed out refreshments along with sleeves of balls to all participants and finished off the day back at the Hub for a presentation and further fine fayre. Results: PJ´s Rent a Car N.T.P´s: Hole 7 Roger Duncan, Hole 10 Dave Lethaby, Hole 17 Dave Akroyd, Hole 4 (in 2) Paul Durrant Competition Results 5th Place: Gary Jones 34 pts, 4th Place: Dave Akroyd 35 pts, 3rd Place: c/b John Eyre 38 pts, 2nd Place: Jason Both 38 pts, 1st Place: Dave Lethaby 43 pts

There was some very steady scoring with the round of the day coming from Terry Field playing of 2 who came in with a gross score of level par 72. There has to be a special mention for Brian Humphreyson who was " out for a duck" on the 9th hole. Brian, playing his second shot, felled a duck which had come out of the lake. It was totally out and thinking it was dead Brian put it on the back of his buggy. However the good news is that whilst he was putting out on the green, the duck woke up & staggered off into the lake nursing a bad head. The full results were: Cat1. 1. Terry Field 70, 2. Steve Gilchrist 71, 3. Joe Rothery 72. Cat2. 1. Barbara Joyce 70, 2, Rod Doel 71, 3. Ken Meridith 72. 2s Club.

CLAPTONS GOLF SOCIETY El Valle 20th September 2013 Here we are at the picturesque course of El Valle for the September meeting. Unfortunately we got off to a bad start as the restaurant was not open when we arrived so it meant a lot of the members rushing around for coffee and to get down on the driving range before the starting tee of 9.30. Having said that the course looked in really good condition apart from the horrible grassy mounds. As we set off the dew was still on the greens, this made the going to start with slow but as the sun rose the greens began to get faster and faster which always makes life difficult. At the end we did manage some quite reasonable scores all round. This was the last of our Polaris World trilogy for this summer. Most of the courses have been enjoyed with odd reservation. Everybody having finished we journeyed back to the Clubhouse for the refreshments and presentation. Our thanks to Chris and his staff. Results as follows.

ELCHE WIN AT LAST BY JOHN MCGREGOR

CELTA VIGO ...............0 ELCHE CF ......................1

Perhaps, after all there is a footballing God up there who at the weekend put right what went wrong during the week. After Elche being cruelly denied a thoroughly deserved draw against mighty-but-lucky Real Madrid on Wednesday, aided by a terrible referee, firstly the maestros from Madrid got theirs from nasty neighbours Athletico losing 1 - 0 in the Capital derby to slip to a poor third, while bruised Elche licked their wounds and went to the Balaidos stadium to play Celta Vigo. The Illicitanos happily came away with their first win of the season, courtesy of a Javi Marquez goal on the hour following an excellent team move, the final pass supplied by Carles Gil. Elche are protesting officially about the Real penalty incident, but this was not received until it was too late for key midfielder Carlos Sanchez to be able to play, Javi Marquez ably deputising by scoring the winner. Albacar was substituted by Cisma for the ex- Seville player’s first run out early in the second half, fifteen minutes from time Wednesday’s goalscorer Richmond Boakye came on for Manu del Moral, and lastly Mantecon came on for Carles Gil. Fidel, Coro and Botia were all booked for Elche. For years (24) Elche supporters have been wishing away to get back into the big time where they used to be, and entertain such illustrious visitors as Barcelona – and Real Madrid. With Elche’s form not good as they struggle to integrate the new players necessary to survive into the team, and Real Madrid as usual up close to the top of La Liga it was always going to be an especially big night in the City of Palms, an almost full-to-capacity Martinez Valero rocking as the teams took the field. After an early Christian Ronaldo effort skimmed the post Elche began to settle and from an Albacar free kick big central defender David Lomban’s header was pushed to safety. By half-time with the score goalless it became apparent that unless the Galacticos sud-

denly turned it on the second half there seemed to be little to fear. Ten minutes gone and the referee Muniz blew for nothing more than a nudge on Ronaldo, but from the free kick, arguably the world’s greatest footballer himself bent the ball low inside Elche’s post to put the visitors one up, albeit one-sidedly given all Elche’s efforts. The Franjiverdes did not give up and carried on with several near misses as the match moved into injury time. Goalkeeper Manu launched a howitzer goal-kick wide to the left wing where Fidel nodded it on: left back Albacar roared onto it, crossed it first time and there, unbelievably was Elche’s new striker Boakye to get his head to it and power it into the net to scenes of wild home jubilation at justice at last being done. Excessive time was added on, and Senor Muniz wasn’t finished. As a last despairing Real corner was cleared he unbelievably blew for a foul and to everyone in green and white’s abject despair pointed to the penalty spot. After massive protests and more Elche bookings (seven in all) up stepped Ronaldo again to slot it home and break home hearts. Yes, of course, that’s football but many neutrals saw it all and senor Muniz is in trouble, charged with favouring the superstars. It’s not finished yet... Sunday evening’s win takes Elche up to 15th place, and gives everyone at the Martinez Valero great heart for next weekend’s home clash with Espanol at 4pm on Saturday. Mucho Elche! Good control last Wednesday evening from Edu Albacar with Ronaldo looking on.

Last Saturday saw the new team of Racing Playas de Orihuela representing the Orihuela

Costa area in the Valencian Federacion league play their first game of the new season. The club mainly made up of two former clubs joining forces Orihuela Costa cadetes and Orihuela Costa C.F. The new look team got off to a bright start taking into consideration of only being together four weeks and having not played a single practice match. Luiz Antonio down Racing right flank troubled the home keeper within the second minute. More was to come when great link up play between Sam Broadway & Nico Garcia saw more efforts on goal on the 4th, 9th and 10th minute. At the back of the Racing team Scott Brunton Racings goal keeper and fellow defenders Jamie Cockroft,Georgie Mint, Alvaro Medina

SUDOKU SOLUTION

MESEGUER’S PENALTY NIGHTMARE ORIHUELA CF .......2 FC TORREVIJA......2 It’s not been the best of starts to the season for either side although with 2 defeats in a row and last week’s dismissal of Aroca Orihuela have quickly begun to realise that, following relegation from Segunda 2B, promotion back to that level is not going to be the easy ride they might have previously considered. Visitors Torrevieja have a slightly better record and with just one defeat from 5 starts, they made the short journey to Los Arcos hoping for a share of the spoils at the very least. Indeed much of the speculation from Torrevieja supporters going into this game centred around the poor form of striker Obele and whether he would get the nod over new addition Rafa Gomez. Unfortunately he did and his first half performance was awful. But despite having the lions share of the half the home side went into the interval trailing by a goal from Gasch. However it could have been much worse had Meseguer converted a 15th minute penalty. Quite why he was allowed to take the ball out of the hands of last weeks penalty scorer Dani Lucas is a mystery but his effort was very poor and easily gathered by Emilio in the Orihuela goal. Moments later however the visitors were in front following an excellent advantage from the referee. A Torry raid saw Pastor felled out wide but as Gasch brought the ball infield the referee waved play on allowing the striker to take the ball round Emilio and fire the visitors into the lead for the only goal of the half. Orihuela could have hit back twice through Alcolea but two magnificent saves from Carrion preserved the Torry lead as they went in for their half time cup of tea. Surprisingly Obele was still on the field at the start of the 2nd period, 40 seconds after which he was on the scoresheet with a low drive to extend the Torry lead. But the 2 goal cushion lasted just 3 minutes as Orihuela hit back themselves after Carrion had initially blocked a goalbound shot. Orihuela then dominated for long periods but it took a 76th minute spot kick to level the scores. Following a quickly taken free kick on the edge of the box Meseguer felled an attacker as he made toward goal and was immediately dismissed. The resultant penalty was tucked away by Canadas which was how the scoreline remained at the end of the game. Orihuela can perhaps feel rather unlucky not to have taken all 3 pts but they were up against an in form Carrion between the Torry sticks who must surely be destined for better things. Next Sunday Torrevieja entertain Paterna at the Vicente Garcia in a 6pm ko.

DEBUT WIN FOR RACING PLAYAS C. F. Benijofar .................................1 C. F. Racing Playas de Orihuela ...2

& Dani Zavkov where rarely called upon due to good possession play by Racing. Against the run of play though it was the home side who took the lead when a quick counter attack saw Benijofar score on 23 minutes. Halftime saw Racing go into the break 1 - 0 down but due to a promising first half the changing room was confident of changing this around in the second half. Second half saw Benijofar have more possession due to a confidence boost from their goal lead but still Racing looked the more dangerous and likely to score with tough tackling and accurate passing from Racing midfielders Glen Lawton, Said & Farid Boulkab and the pace out on the flanks of Broadway & Antonio. On the 53 rd minute great play and control from Nico Garcia saw him pick out Sam Broadway to score the first goal in the clubs history to bring the score level 1 - 1. Garcia didnt let up and continually looked a threat against a nervous home defence and on 70 minutes struck what could be already the goal of the season to the delight of the travelling fans and to give Racing a 2 - 1 lead. On 86 minutes Garcia was pulled down and awarded a penalty , Glen Lawton was unlucky when his strike smashed the post but it was soon forgotten 4 minutes later on the final whistle and Racing taking their first 3 points for the season.

Horadada came out all guns blazing at Benidorm on Saturday knowing that they had a point to prove following their disappointing home defeat last weekend. They took the game to their hosts and were far the dominant side. It was surprising however that they took until the 83rd minute to get on the scoresheet through Joaquín. It then took them just another 2 minutes to make the points safe when Angel fired home number two from close range. The win lifts the Reds into 5th but 2 consecutive defeats for Benidorm consign the pre season favourites for promotion to mid table
