Skeptic as we always are about some aspects of the Costa, we cannot help noticing how many are offering a UK TV program service since the satellite was replaced with the sad loss of basic programs such as BBC, ITV and so on. This note is just to make you aware that all these programs and quite a bit more are available on the internet FOR FREE at www.filmon.com and can also be watched on your TV screen. Some of the latest TV sets can be connected to the internet but most other sets can be joined to your computer or laptop by way of a HD (High Definition) cable that can be purchased quite cheaply even at the Chinese stores and “hey presto” there you are, watching Eastenders. There is no real need to pay subscriptions, buy boxes or anything else. The service is free but if you choose to be a member or pay a subscription, you can get a higher quality picture and a few other benefits direct from the suppliers used by intermediaries at the moment. I find the free service quite good enough for me. 4

editor page We certainly live in troubled “man made” times, mostly caused under the pretext of religion. I just knew it wasn’t a good idea to bring home to Spain the two affected Ebola patients. How careless! Let’s hope the nurse did not contact anyone who lives in Andalucia, one of the places in the world so far unaffected by all these problems. Meanwhile the Season of Goodwill is fast approaching with just 10 weeks to Christmas day. Let’s hope that Goodwill starts to touch the heart of these causes. Ciertamente vivimos tiempos problemáticos “hechos por el hombre”, principalmente causados con el pretexto de la religión. Acabo de saber que no fue una buena idea traer a casa los dos pacientes afectados de ébola. ¡Que descuidados! Esperemos que la enfermera no contactase con alguien que viva en Andalucía, uno de los lugares en el mundo menos afectados por esos problemas.

Мы безусловно живём в непростые, созданные руками человека времена, во многом обусловленными религиозным предлогом. Я знал, что это не очень хорошая идея привезти с собой домой в Испанию двух пациентов, заражённых Эболой. Какая оплошность! Будем надеяться, что медсестра не имела контактов с кем-либо кто проживает в Андалусии — одном из уголков в мире, незатронутым всеми этими проблемами.

Poems I have come across a couple of poems written by Julia which seem to be very much in tune with the article “in my opinion”. I hope you like them.
Slave to War
Are you free?
Not one grain of desert sand Nor field or grassy earth The fighting or the bloodshed One human life is worth.
Are you free to choose to live? Lay down arms and walk away? Are you free to argue? Are you free to have your say? Are you free to question the motives of his war? Are you free to drop your weapons? Are you free to fight no more? Are you free to have opinions? Are you free to have your way? Are you free to choose to live? Are you free to have your way? Are you free to worship which ever God you name? Are you free to be different? Are you free to be the same?
By Julia
You were told to die a martyr And die the death of brave But you died under orders You died another’s slave. Do not hide behind religion Colour, race or creed Do not let him tell you You’re fighting to be free Even if you win his war, By chance you do succeed Your fight will not be over For there is no end to greed. For fighting is hereditary A growth that is man made But never will you find a cure With guns or bombs or blade You are told to fight for freedom For your country, for your king Then after you will come your son And then the son of him. 8

Many thanks to COCOMO for sponsoring the competition. Dear Web Express Guide, Just to let you know that we had a great time at Cocomo last night. The service was unbelievable; we were given the best table in the house. The food was fresh and tasty, we had Fillet steak and all the trimmings, which by the way you could cut with a fork it was so tender.
Very much online with our main feature, is the story of this master auctioneer and genius art expert who can spot a forgery at a glance but cannot see deceit staring him in the face. The Best Offer, from Oscar winning director Giuseppe Tornatore, a master auctioneer becomes obsessed with an extremely reclusive heiress who collects fine art. The movie tells the story of the world of high-end art auctions and antiques and of an elderly and esteemed but eccentric genius art-expert, known and appreciated worldwide. Hired by a solitary young heiress to auction off the large collection of art and antiques left to her by her parents, but, a recluse, she refuses to be seen in person. Robert, a friend, aids him in restoring and reassembling some odd mechanical parts he finds amongst her belongings, while also giving him advice on how to befriend her and deal with his feelings towards her.
I fully recommend everyone to try this restaurant; I know you’d love it. Thank you very much again. (Look forward to the next competition, ha! ha!)

IN MY OPINION
RELIGION & CREED:
THE EXCUSE In spite of the many differences among Christians, Jews, Muslims and others, they all share a fundamental belief in a compassionate and a just God. The Koran repeatedly refers to God as compassionate and just. It also says that “there is no compulsion in religion� (2:256) because submission to God must be freely chosen, not forced (Ali).
Christians killed by Romans at as nearly 100,000 up to 313 AD. No one knows exactly how many victims were claimed by the Spanish Inquisition, different estimates vary between 31,000 and 135,000.
Well this is what most religions preach, yet, on the other side of the story, it is estimated that some 1.5 million people were killed by Crusaders (1095-1291) in the name of God, and that included some Christians.
The worst war in this century, WW2, was judged not to have religious causes yet an estimated 6 million people were tortured and killed because they were Jews.
Some sources list the figure of
Other references suggest that an estimated 270 million people were killed in the
name of god in the 1400 years history of Islam. When you add to this Russia and all other religions and creeds the number of deaths
in the name of god or religion is simply astronomical. Perhaps the most honest killings have been done by those who did not hide the true reason for killing and plundering, like the Vikings for example. Religion does not kill anyone; the real reason behind wars and massacres is greed for power, money and territory. How many valuable objects and gold have been stolen
12
www.webexpressguide.com
by the Nazis? Not to mention power and territory. What war can be holy when the moral obligation is to annihilate innocent people in god’s name? When animals kill they kill to eat, what does this make humankind? Priests, religious leaders and also politicians are no more than a bunch of hypocrites looking for excuses to wage war for other unreligious reasons while causing people to have to defend themselves. After thousands of years of brother killing brother for whatever reason, the extra shame is for those using religion as an excuse. What is the answer? What can be done constructively to stop this carnage? As the Koran states (see above), submission to God must be freely chosen, intending one’s God whatever the religion. This means that people have to be educated to the true meaning of these words, unfortunately you cannot educate adults, which is too late. Today’s killers are yesterday’s children. We need to educate children before adulthood and the better qualified persons to educate children are their mothers. We have seen that integration does work, just look at the mix of races and religions in ‘educated’ countries. It may have taken one or even two generations of education in tolerance and respect for others’ beliefs, encouraged by mothers, to reach harmony in places where hatred existed between colour and religion. But this God intended progress
is definitely ´sabotaged´ when children are forced to attend belligerent, perverted religious classes in schools, right under our noses. I believe that it is time that mothers and future mothers should start to take their role seriously and refuse to submit to be demeaned by men, beaten and even stoned to death. What kind of god condones or even encourages this? What kind of god forbids proper school education for girls? What kind of god permits children to be taken away or distanced from their mothers so they can be shown how to use guns, to hate and to feel no remorse for killing? It is unnatural! Leaving God aside, the greatest lesson even comes from nature itself observing the animal world, where mothers care for their offspring until they are able to understand and fend for themselves, and even defend them against the father. Is it perhaps the case that these women should be educated to stand their ground, defend their rights and have the freedom to educate their children as they should be? www.webexpressguide.com

There is a mountain of information online about this complex subject. This is just a small taster that might arouse your curiosity and possibly save you from getting cheated.
Hay todo un mundo de información acerca de este tema tan complejo. Esto sólo es un pequeño aperitivo que podría despertar su curiosidad y, posiblemente, salvarle de más de un engaño.
Существует гора информации в сети по этой сложной теме. Это всего лишь небольшая часть её, которая, возможно, вызовет ваше любопытство и убережёт вас от риска быть обманутым.
Spoken words are not always necessarily true, however your subconscious speaks the truth through body posture and gestures; this is the concept. When the subconscious mind speaks this way to another subconscious mind it is simply a question for the conscious to perceive the message.
Las palabras habladas no siempre son necesariamente sinceras, sin embargo, su subconsciente dice la verdad a través de la postura corporal y los gestos; este es el concepto. Cuando la mente subconsciente habla a otra mente subconsciente es simplemente una cuestión de la conciencia percibir el mensaje.
Слова, произнесенные вслух, не всегда являются правдивыми. Однако, концепция заключается в том, что ваше подсознание выдаёт правду через позу тела и жесты. Когда одно подсознание разговаривает таким образом с другим подсознанием — это всего-навсего дело сознания воспринять данное сообщение.
Therefore if you can learn and train yourself to observe and listen to this non verbal communication in theory you should be able to pick up if the other person is lying, telling the truth, flirting and so on. On the downside it gets a bit more complicated when the other person, having mastered some non verbal communication, is in control of his body signals and causes them to lie along with the spoken word.
Por lo tanto si usted puede aprender y entrenarse para observar y escuchar esta comunicación no verbal en teoría debería ser capaz de saber si la otra persona está mintiendo, diciendo la verdad, coqueteando y así sucesivamente. Por otro lado se pone un poco más complicado averiguar sí lo que nos quieren comunicar es totalmente sincero cuando la persona que nos habla ha dominado un poco la comunicación no verbal, está en control de lenguaje corporal.
www.webexpressguide.com
Следовательно, если вы сможете научиться и тренировать себя в наблюдении и умении видеть данную невербальную коммуникацию, в теории, вы сможете распознать, когда человек врёт, говорит правду, флиртует и т. п. С другой стороны, это становится сложнее, в случае, если другой человек, освоив техники невербального общения, контролирует сигналы своего тела и заставляет их лгать наряду с устными словами.

Tricky really! This is why you are much better at reading people you know than any expert; otherwise listen carefully to your gut. Hopefully we can give you a few clues that may help you; for instance avoiding to look at someone in the eyes can signal deception or a lack of respect. If a person shifts his/her eyes to the left, the spoken words may well be a tissue of lies especially just as frequent blinking can mean the same. Other signs are: delay in answering a question, hiding the mouth or eyes, licking lips or pulling ears or lips, fidgeting with glasses or tie or hair, throat clearing. Women are usually more subtle than Sharon Stone in the film Basic Instinct and men should observe the following signals: 1. If a woman flicks her hair it definitely means she’s into you, but be sure she is looking at you, not someone else. 2. If she is fondling an object like the stem of a wine glass or a dangling earring when giving you repeated glances, she finds you attractive. 3. When she slowly strokes her neck, throat or thigh... just play your cards right. 4. When you see her sitting with one leg tucked up under her, her knee could be pointing at the person she is attracted to. 16
www.webexpressguide.com
Es por esto que usted puede “leer” mejor a gente que conoce, antes que cualquier experto; de lo contrario escuchar con atención a su instinto suele ser la mejor opción. Esperemos que le pueda dar algunas pistas para ayudarlo; por ejemplo, cuando alguien evita mirarlo a los ojos puede indicar engaño o la falta de respeto. Si una persona mira con sus ojos a la izquierda, las palabras habladas pueden ser un tejido de mentiras igual que un frecuente parpadeo puede significar lo mismo. Otros signos son: retraso en responder a una pregunta, ocultar la boca o los ojos, lamer los labios o tirar de las orejas, juguetear con las gafas o jugar con el pelo, o aclarar la garganta.
Действительно запутанно! Вот почему у вас гораздо лучше получается читать знакомых вам людей, чем любому эксперту; в обратном случае — внимательно прислушивайтесь к вашей интуиции. Надеемся, что мы сможем дать несколько подсказок, которые помогут вам. Например: избегание прямого зрительного контакта может сигнализировать обман или неуважение. Если человек переводит взгляд влево, его слова могут быть окутаны паутиной лжи, также, как и в случае частого моргания. Другими сигналами являются: паузы при ответе на вопрос, прятание глаз или рта, облизывание губ, подёргивание ушей или губ, вертение очков, галстука или волос, прочищение горла.
Las mujeres suelen ser algo más sutiles que Sharon Stone en Instinto básico y los hombres deben aprender las siguientes señales:
Женщины обычно ведут себя более тонко, чем Шэрон Стоун в фильме «Основной инстинкт». Мужчинам рекомендуется обратить внимание на следующие сигналы:
1. Si una mujer juega con su pelo sin duda significa que le gustas, pero asegúrese de que está mirando hacia ti, no a otra persona.
1. Если женщина играет со своими волосами — это определённо значит, что вы ей нравитесь, но убедитесь, что при этом она смотрит на вас, а не на кого-то другого.
2. Si ella acaricia un objeto como la base de una copa de vino o un pendiente mientras le mira repetidamente, ella le encuentra atractivo.
2. Если она ласкает предмет, как ножку бокала или висячую серёжку и при этом часто на вас смотрит — она находит вас привлекательным.
3. Cuando acaricia lentamente su cuello, la garganta o en el muslo ... utilice bien sus cartas.
3. Когда она медленно гладит свою шею, горло или бедро... это сигнал к действию. 4. Если она сидит с одной ногой под себя, её колено
Main feature
5. When she rests her elbows on the table with one hand over the other, holding her chin, you certainly have her full attention.
4. Cuando la vea sentada con una pierna recogido debajo de ella, su rodilla podría estar apuntando a la persona que le atrae.
Men do not play a courtship game; they try to impress the women they like by giving certain signals such as looking at you and trying to hold your gaze, smile, looking at you up and down or occasionally licking their lips.
5. Cuando ella descansa sus codos sobre la mesa con una mano sobre la otra, sosteniendo su barbilla, significa que sin duda tiene toda su atención.
There are also negative signs you should avoid: Folding your arms, a weak or too strong a handshake, angling the body away from the person you’re speaking with, invading someone’s space. Glancing at your watch or looking past a person who you’re speaking with will communicate disinterest or arrogance.
Los hombres también juegan a este juego; tratan de impresionar a las mujeres que les gusta al dar ciertas señales, como mirando y tratando de mantener su mirada, la sonrisa, mirándole de arriba abajo o de vez en cuando lamiéndose los labios. También hay signos negativos que debes evitar: Cruzar los brazos, un débil o demasiado fuerte apretón de manos, inclinar el cuerpo lejos de la persona que está hablando, invadir el espacio de alguien.
может указывать на человека, который ей нравится. 5. Если она опирается локтями о стол, поддерживая подборок двумя скрещенными ладонями — она вся в вашем внимании. Мужчины не играют в эти игры. Они пытаются произвести впечатления на женщин, которые им нравятся, смотря на вас и пытаясь задержать ваш взгляд, улыбаясь, окидывая вас взглядом с ног до головы и периодически облизывая губы. Существует также и нежелательные жесты, которых вам следует избегать. Например: скрещенные руки, слабое или слишком сильное рукопожатие, отворачивание от вашего собеседника, вторжение в чьё-то личное пространство. Взгляд на часы или взгляд не обращённый на собеседника, сигнализирует об отсутствии интереса или высокомерии.

( Aloo” Peas” )
This is a favourite curry of mine, very common in India using few ingredients, mainly bits of leftovers. It can be hard or easy to make, it is up to you, I could say just boil potatoes, fry them with garam masala, add some tomato, chilli, turmeric, salt and, if you like peas throw in some frozen ones just before the end.
Ingredients For the fried potatoes • 1kg/2lb 4oz potatoes peeled and cut into 3cm/1¼oz chunks • 4 tbsp mustard oil or vegetable oil • 1 tsp ground turmeric For the sauce • 3 tbsp vegetable Oil • 2 Indian bay leaves • ¼ tsp asafoetida • 1 medium, onion
very finely chopped • 6 garlic cloves, finely crushed • 5cm/2in fresh root ginger finely grated • 1 tsp Kashmiri chilli powder • 1 tsp ground cumin • 1 tsp ground coriander • ½ tsp amchur (dried mango powder) • ½ tsp ground turmeric
• ½ tsp salt • 200g/7oz Frito tomato • 2 green chillies sliced lengthways into thin strips, with or without seeds according to preference • 150g/5½oz frozen peas • 1 tsp garam masala • Handful chopped coriander leaves, to finish
Preparation method 1. Boil the potatoes in a pan of salted water for eight minutes until just tender, then drain well. Heat the oil in a heavy-based saucepan or karahi over a medium-high heat, add the potatoes and fry for five minutes, or until golden-brown. Add the turmeric and fry for 30 seconds. Remove from the heat. 2. For the sauce, heat the oil in another pan over a medium-high heat. Add the bay leaves and fry for one minute, then add the asafoetida and stir. Add the onion and fry for five minutes; then add the garlic and ginger and fry for five minutes, or until softened and lightly goldenbrown. 18

3. Add the chilli powder, cumin, coriander, amchur, turmeric and salt and fry for one minute, then add the tomato passata, green chillies and 100ml/3½fl oz water and stir together. Add the fried potatoes, reduce the heat to medium, cover the pan and cook for 10 minutes, adding a splash of water if anything catches on the bottom of the pan. 4. Add the peas and garam masala and cook uncovered for 3-4 minutes, or until the peas are cooked. Garnish with fresh coriander and serve.

Best Argentinian Restaurant on the Costa del Sol What is the secret of a good Argentinian restaurant? The answer is simple: a “Real” good, old steak from real Argentina cooked the Argentine way. Argentinian beef is the most sought after beef in the world for its quality as well as the country’s way of cooking it on a charcoal or wood fire grill. GAUCHOS is the newest Argentinean restaurant recently opened at Laguna Village, in Estepona and I think it is probably the place to best enjoy a truly Argentinian style barbecue on the Costa del Sol. Personally I cannot resist the aroma of beef cooking on a charcoal grill, that delicious aroma is far too irresistible, so I just had to try it. Believe me it was well worth it! The beef is imported from Argentina and the size and thickness of my steak was almost
26
www.webexpressguide.com
more than I could handle, what’s more it was cooked to perfection, just as I had asked “Medium rare”. It really touched the spot! It was the nicest steak I ever had in a restaurant between Marbella and Gibraltar. Of course a full supporting menu is also available, including a menu for children. I shall be telling you more about this new restaurant where you can enjoy a really good meal within the beautiful setting of Laguna Village and a relaxing view. If you really like proper beef as it is meant to be, this is the place to visit with the added bonuis of easy parking.

Банкротство в Испании Хотя может случиться, что отдельные лица или компании не в состоянии погасить их долги, в целом, испанский метод, применимый в данном случае, предположительно предназначен для спасения от ситуаций, когда размер долгов превышает размер активов, т. е. банкротство отдельного лица или кредитора. Для получения дополнительной информации, пожалуйста пишите по адресу: editor@webexpressguide.com. На ежедневной основе, если вы не в состоянии заплатить ипотеку или кредит на протяжении трёх последовательных месяцев, даже если вы и не являетесь банкротом, у банка или кредитора появляется право завладеть залогом, внесённым за кредит, без каких-либо уведомлений, даже если залогом является ваш дом. Кроме того, необходимо помнить, что если вы осуществили перерасход на вашем банковском счету или не заплатили хотя бы один платёж по любым займам — ваша кредитная карточка будет заморожена мгновенно. В случае банкротства, подходящим решением может быть подача заявления о банкротстве (исп. «concurso de acreedores») в испанский суд. Главное преимущество в том, что таким образом можно остановить начисление процентов по долгам, а также остановить изымание имущества. Для реструктуризации долгов и расчётов выплат на допустимом уровне будет назначен администратор. Это лучше, чем ждать пока кредитор форсирует петицию о банкротстве, давая ему тем самым, контроль над ситуацией.
Должник обязан подать заявление о банкротстве в течение двух месяцев с момента возникновения состояния неплатёжеспособности, чтобы избежать возбуждения иска кредиторами. Кредитор должен подать заявление о банкротстве, как только он/она предвидит банкротство. Ходатайство о банкротстве должно быть подано до коммерческого суда (исп. «Juzgado de lo Mercantil») и вам потребуется адвокат. Обратите внимание, что вы должны предоставить подтверждение неплатёжеспособности или неизбежного банкротства — неуплата пары счетов не является доказательством. Основным является то, что как только был назначен администратор, всё имущество замораживается до момента пока весь сценарий утверждён, условия погашения долга оговорены и всё возвращается в нормальное русло. В случае компании с ограниченной ответственностью, если активы недостаточны, в некоторых ситуациях, кредиторы могут получить оплату даже с личного имущества, принадлежащего директорам компании-должника. Хотя банкротство не является излюбленным решением испанцев, которые предпочитают вести переговоры с кредиторами, в результате недавнего кризиса, для помощи экономики Испания предложила реструктурировать закон о банкротстве чтобы избежать ликвидаций компаний. Указ от марта 2014, как ожидается, получит одобрение парламента в ближайшее время. www.webexpressguide.com

prickly pair
The Real Spain has long gone The Prickly Pair continue wishing to remain anonymous in case any one is tempted to run them over when they cross the Carretera. Spain has been for many years the number one “fun in the sun” spot for families, singles (18-30), stag & hen parties, etc. In fact since the 70’s, when Sir Freddy Laker (God bless him) opened up the “Hi-DeHi“horizons of the great un-washed. Although the popularity of Spain as the first choice holiday for Mr and Mrs average does go up and down, there is still no denying the track record of a destination does still offer guaranteed sun, reasonable good value and, let’s face it, cheap drink and fags. 36

But lurking in the background, like an elusive scent behind the more familiar “in yer face” pong of coconut after sun and Hawaiian Tropic, is that almost extinct creature, the “went away to find myself ”.
where I live, even has a group of ladies of genteel disposition who meet to play Bridge and drink lemon tea. Yes, Bridge if you don’t mind! You can’t move for the “Big Screen Sport’s Bars” and even the Spanish bars sell bacon without bristles! Where will it all end?
Back in the “swinging 60’s”, when, if you didn’t disappear up some mountain somewhere you were the odd one out, Spain was great because it is full of mountains without being too far away and although you didn’t get to meet the Dalai Lama, no doubt you were too stoned to know that “Jose from Jimena” wasn’t in fact the Dalai Lama.
What happened to the “Free Spirits”? I hate to say it, but they seem to have become respectable, there are a few old timers happily smoking and drinking themselves slowly to death, and, fair play to them, I am glad to say “not a compromise in sight”. But on the whole, the new crop has wandered a long way from the path of enlightenment.
So, forty plus!! Yes, some forty plus years later, what has happened to these higher mortals? Well, scratch under the surface of the everyday folk, living and working and leading ordinary lives in Spain, and not as windswept and interesting as they would have their green with envy friends back in Blighty believe, and there they still are, as reclusive as a badger with a secret, but still spreading peace, love and bad paintings around like confetti. Listening to me you would think that I have some kind of chip on my shoulder in respect of these lentil-eating, dog saving, bad art campo dwellers. On the contrary, in fact I think we need more of them! My family and I lived in Spain, the Real Spain that is, over thirty years ago, in what was then an un-spoilt mountain village, and, although I was a child at the time, I was privileged to have met some of the original “Scooby Doo” types. Now, living on the Coast, to be frank, I am finding it a bit like Great Yarmouth with palm trees. One English bar, near
The modern day “Velma” and “Shaggy” come to us hot foot from a killing on their “Right to Buy” council house, bringing a variety of elderly pets with them, two point four scared stiff children and an outdated desire to find and buy a bit of the “Real Spain”. It is a sad fact, however that the “Real Spain” has long gone, “Jose from Jimena” sold it to Taylor Woodrow for more millions than he could fit on his “mulo” and anyway could these modern day drop outs from society really live in the “Eldorado” of the past? Way back then the “finca” on the “campo” consisted of four damp walls, a leaky asbestos roof, no water, no electricity and no toilet facilities, a place that even “Man Friday” would swim to freedom from. So what does all this tell us? Quite simple really, “the Real Spain” has been sold, the Spanish bars have sold out, the finca on the campo is a home from home and the original “free spirits” had necks as hard as jockeys’ b****cks!! So did anyone ever really “find himself ”’ or did they just get lost trying? www.webexpressguide.com

VIRTUAL HUMOUR
A completely inebriated man was stumbling down the street with one foot on the curb and one foot in the gutter. A cop pulled up and said, “I’ve got to take you in, pal. You’re obviously drunk.” Our wasted friend asked, “Officer, are ya absolutely sure I’m drunk?” “Yeah, buddy, I’m sure,” said the copper. “Let’s go.” Breathing a sigh of relief, the wino said, “Thank goodness, I thought I was crippled.” A little boy was doing his Geography homework one evening and turned to his father and said, “Daddy, where would I find the Andes?” “Don’t ask me,” said his father. “Ask your mother. She puts everything away in this house.” The man: “God, how long is a million years?” God: “To me, it’s about a minute.” The man: “God, how much is a million dollars?” God: “To me it’s a penny.” The man: “God, may I have a penny?” God: “Wait a minute.” On wall in ladies room “My husband follows me everywhere...” Written just below it “I do not”. Harry’s wife says, “Harry, do these jeans make my backside look like the side of the house?” He says, “No, our house isn’t blue.

THE RECESSION DISEASE It’s a killer
It is time to wake up to an economic disease that is growing right here on the Costa del Sol, a disease born under the pretext that we have a recession.
that turns your finger green or you can buy an original brand shirt from a Facebook page that will fade as you drink your coffee on the terazza.
Of course the shortage of money has reflected on businesses performance, businesses that have and still do try to find ways to reduce their costs in order to maintain a reasonable level of sales. Stating the obvious, unfortunately there comes a point where it is no longer profitable to run the business.
That ring and the shirt have been bought at the expense of the business that has lowered its prices while encouraging the cheaters and others to continue with their deceit. This applies throughout the spectrum of goods and services creating what I call the leeches of society not only through Facebook and “looky looky” men but also via cheap publications that “cheaply” cater for them.
While consumers keep looking for cheaper and cheaper, there comes to a point when what they buy is not what it is meant to be. What I mean to say is that you can buy a gold ring at a fair price or you can buy one from the “looky looky” man

Quite rightly taxi drivers have objected to private pirate taxis;. a taxi license can cost from €100K to €275K before insurance and the rest, while the pirate uses his car without adequate
insurance and other costs. What about those who advertise food and cooking from home? To handle food you need a license, just as you need a health certificate and a complaints book. This represents business lost by bona fide restaurants who are crying out for business. These so called illegal businesses and those who promote them or sponsor them are guilty of contributing to unemployment and to the recession. I think it is up to the consumer to be aware and refuse to support these leeches of society and even expose them; after all you could get poisoned by that food or be crippled in the pirate taxi with no recourse or compensation in either case.

CAR OF THE MONTH
BENTLEY CONTINENTAL GTC The 2008 Bentley Continental GTC is the car for those who seek a drop top that spells out opulence and elegant luxury. This car is unquestionably elegant with a beautifully crafted interior, structurally sound with a wonderfully composed ride, minimal cabin wind intrusion, highly customizable. The 6.0-liter twin-turbo 12-cylinder engine arranged in Volkswagen’s unique W formation, paired to a six-speed automatic and all-wheel-drive, produces 552 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque. Bentley estimates a 0-60-mph time of 4.8 seconds, excellent for a vehicle that weighs 5,500 pounds.
