As an Englishman I’m well aware of the tendency of my fellow Brits to open a conversation with a reference to the weather, and for many years I believed that it was a peculiarity of my nationality. That was until I came to Spain where the weather is just as popular a topic as in the UK, and this year there certainly has been a lot to talk about, what with the long summer last year which suddenly turned in mid December to the wettest winter, followed by a late Spring and a summer dominated by easterly winds with just the occasional westerly to scorch the lungs.

It makes you wonder what the rest of the year has in store, so better stock up on suncream, umbrellas, snowshoes just in case.

It has been a pretty uneventful summer so far, apart from the recent visit

by Michelle Obama, and the circus that ensued. Whilst we shouldn’t underestimate the valuable publicity garnered by the Costa del Sol, I am sure I’m not the only one who found the fawning, particularly by local politicians from far and wide, a little embarassing, particularly as it was a private holiday and not a state visit. Mind you we must remember we’re leading up to local elections next May so expect plenty more of the same.

In the media we are constantly reminded not to judge things by their appearance, and I was reminded of this fact late last year on a visit to the UK. Accompanying me was my 14 year-old son, his first time back in the UK in ten years, having been brought up in Sabinillas where, although not crime free, you can let your kids have a wide area in which roam safely. Whilst visiting Birmingham we were seeking out a particularly well recommended Balti curry house when we chance upon a group of ‘hoodies’ in a particularly seedy, poorly lit area. Taking this opportunity to impart a little street wisdom to my lad I warned him of all the signs to look out for, not to make eye contact, etc., and whilst we were on the opposite side of the road, three of the delinquents broke off from the pack and began to shadow us. Whilst ready for anything I watched the youths as they split up and sneaked up the paths of three adjoining houses, puzzled I ignored all the lessons I was trying to pass on to my son, and slowed down to observe. After a few seconds stood at their respective front doors one of them shouted NOW! as they each rang the doorbell before turning round and fleeing up the road. Well so much for a valuable lesson in life in the urban jungle as the three ‘gangstas from da hood’ turned out to be just three kids playing the time-honoured game of ‘knock-up-ginger’, just like we, our parents, and their parents before them. Maybe there’s hope yet.

Como buen inglés que soy sé que mis colegas británicos tienen la tendencia a hablar sobre el tiempo atmosférico, y durante muchos años he creído que eso era una particularidad de mi nacionalidad.

Así pensé hasta que llegué a España donde hablar del tiempo es tan tópico como en el Reino Unido, y este año si que hemos hablado de él, empezando con el largo verano del año pasado que de repente a mitad de Diciembre fue el invierno más lluvioso, seguido de una primavera tardía y un verano dominado por vientos de levante con algunos días de poniente que abrasaba nuestros pulmones. Te hace pensar en lo que nos tendrá preparado el resto del año, así pues es mejor que tengamos a mano cremas solares, sombrillas y zapatos para la nieve en caso de necesitarlos.

Hasta ahora hemos tenido un verano tranquilo y sin incidencias, aparte de la reciente visita de Michelle Obama, y el circo mediático.

Mientras, no deberíamos subestimar el valor publicitario obtenido para la Costa del Sol, estoy seguro que no soy el único en pensar en lo adulador, particularmente por parte de algunos políticos locales, un poco embarazoso tratándose de unas vacaciones privadas y no una visita de estado. Teniendo en mente que debemos recordar que se aproximan nuevas elecciones locales el próximo mes de Mayo, esperad más de lo mismo.

En los medios de comunicación tenemos constantemente que recordar que no se puede juzgar por las apariencias, tal y como me acordé a final del año pasado en una visita a Reino Unido acompañado de mi hijo de 14 años, su primera vez después de diez años fuera, habiéndose educado en Sabinillas, donde y aunque no estamos exentos de delitos, todavía se puede dejar a nuestros niños vagar con seguridad en amplias zonas. Mientras visitábamos Birmingham tratábamos de encontrar un sitio recomendado de comida india cuando nos topamos con un grupo de niñatos de aspecto desaseados en una zona poca alumbrada. Aprovechando esta oportunidad para impartir un poco de sabiduría de la calle a mi hijo, le advertí de que no los mirase, y que los ignorara, etc.

Y mientras estábamos en el otro lado de la acera, tres de los delincuentes se separaron del grupo y nos siguieron. Preparado para cualquier cosa miré a los jóvenes separarse y acercarse sigilosamente por un camino común entre casas, ignorando todas las lecciones que estaba intentando transmitir a mi hijo, aflojé el paso y observé. Después de unos pocos segundos delante de sus respectivas puertas de entrada, uno de ellos gritó: ¡AHORA! Y cada uno llamó al timbre de las casas saliendo posteriormente corriendo.

Bien una valiosa lección en la vida dentro de la jungla urbana, tan solo eran niños jugando a llamar a timbres y salir corriendo, justo lo que nosotros, nuestros padres y sus padres habían hecho antes.

Quizás haya esperanza todavía.

La Parroquia se llenó con ocasión de la Misa por el alma del ex alcalde Francisco Jiménez

Hundreds turn out for former mayor’s funeral

La Parroquia de Santa María Coronada se ha llenado durante la Misa por el alma de Francisco Jiménez, ex alcalde de San Roque y un referente para el municipio, especialmente en el terreno cultural.

Numerosos amigos han querido acompañar a los familiares de Jiménez en una emotiva ceremonia donde se recordó su calidad humana y la estima que despertaba en todos. Los miembros de la Corporación municipal, con el alcalde Fernando Palma a la cabeza, rindieron homenaje al anterior regidor, que descansaba en el interior de un féretro cubierto con la bandera de San Roque.

Francisco Jiménez falleció en la tarde de domingo, 15 de Agosto en su domicilio de la céntrica calle Málaga. Paco Jiménez, como era conocido en la ciudad, era, pese a su edad, una persona muy activa, muy relacionada con el mundo de la cultura, y dirigía el taller de Teatro de la Universidad Popular.

Hundreds of mourners attended the funeral of Francisco Jiménez, former mayor of San Roque, who died last weekend.

Many friends accompanied by family and members of the local government attended the emotional ceremony in the Parroquia de Santa María Coronada church.

Francisco Jimenez died on the evening of Sunday, August 15 at his home in central Malaga. Paco Jimenez, as he was known in the city, was despite his age very active on the local cultural scene, and directed the People’s University Theatre Workshop.

Francisco Pérez Jiménez was born in San Roque on October 5, 1927, and was well known for the work he did in the town, and was proud to be a Sanroqueño. He was Mayor of San Roque between the years of 1969 and 1979, and amongst his many achievements was the commencement of the Municipal Theatre, construction of the justice courts, and the Instituto José Cadalso.

Francisco Jiménez Pérez, nació en San Roque el 5 de octubre de 1927, ha sido un vecino conocido por sus obras, y un sanroqueño de los que han llevado con orgullo su naturaleza de ciudadano de

Un equipo de la televisión pública italiana filma en San Roque uno de sus programas Un equipo de la televisión pública italiana RAI filmó parte de uno de sus programas turísticos en la ciudad de San Roque.

Durante la pasada semana un grupo de profesionales de la RAI grabó imágenes en la Plaza de Armas, parroquia Santa María la Coronada, capilla de Nuestra Señora de la Visitación y Palacio de los Gobernadores, así como la plaza de toros y calles típicas del casco histórico.

El equipo grabó también imágenes de playas, partidos de golf y polo, puerto

deportivo de Sotogrande y deportes náuticos.

Como la estancia de tres días del equipo de tres personas de la RAI en San Roque coincidió con el inicio de la Feria Real y el Festival Flamenco ofrecido en la plaza de Toros, garbaron también estos eventos.

El concejal de Turismo, Antonio Calero, ha destacado “la importancia de que nuestro municipio sea conocido en países con miles de potenciales turistas, como el caso de Italia”.

esta histórica localidad. Entre 1969 y 1979 fue alcalde de la Ciudad, y entre sus logros están el inicio de las obras del Teatro Municipal, la construcción de los juzgados y del Instituto José Cadalso.

Protección Civil lleva a 17 abuelos de la Residencia Municipal a pasar un rato en la playa de Guadarranque

Un total de 17 abuelos de la Residencia Municipal de Mayores han podido disfrutar hoy, miércoles, de un día de playa gracias a Protección Civil de San Roque, que se ha encargado de trasladarlos hasta la playa de Guadarranque desde el asilo, así como de montar una carpa para protegerlos del sol, atenderlos y velar por su seguridad en la orilla y en el agua, a donde han podido acceder a bordo de sillas flotantes. Se da la circunstancia de que para algunos ancianos era la primera vez que pisaban la arena de la playa.

El coordinador local de Protección Civil, Antonio Delgado, explicó que

Italian TV films in San Roque A team from Italy’s RAI television channel was in San Roque recently filming footage for one of its holiday programmes.

During the past week filmmakers have been shooting in the town’s Plaza de Armas, Santa María la Coronada church, the Nuestra Señora de la Visitación chapel and the Palacio de los Gobernadores, along with the bullring and a number of typical streets in the old town. The team

also visited a number of beaches, golf and polo matches, Sotogrande port, etc. Their three day visit also coincided with the town’s Royal Fair ad Flamenco Festival.

Councillor for Tourism, Antonio Calero stressed “the importance to our municipality of exposure in countries with thousands of potential visitors such as is the case in Italy”.

“estamos para ayudar, y cuando me propusieron esta idea desde el asilo, me encantó. Para lograr este día de playa se ha pedido la ayuda de varios departamentos municipales, y además hemos contado con la colaboración del mismo personal del asilo”.

Manuela Pascual, directora de la Residencia Municipal de Mayores, indicó que “está siendo una gran experiencia para los abuelos, que ya se encantaron cuando conocieron la idea. Quiero dar las gracias a Protección Civil, porque lo han organizado todo de manera fenomenal, y estamos muy a gusto”.

Civil Protection take 17 senior citizens to spend some time on the beach A total of 17 residents from San Roque’s Municipal Senior Citizens’ Home enjoyed a day on the beach last Wednesday thanks to members of the Civil Protection Brigade who took them to Playa Guadarranque.

The group enjoyed the chance to soak up a little sun and to paddle in the sea with the help of the lifeguards, whose numbers had been increased to take account of the

visit.

Manuela Pascual, director of the Municipal Senior Citizens’ Home, said that “It had been a great experience for the residents, who loved the idea from the day it was proposed. I want to say big thank you to the Civil Protection for making the day possible”.

La Policía Nacional libera a un ciudadano que secuestrado durante 8 días en Manilva Agentes de la Policía Nacional han liberado a un ciudadano, de nacionalidad polaca y 39 años, que permaneció durante ocho días secuestrado en un chalet ubicado en la localidad malagueña de Manilva donde, además, fue torturado.

Según declaró la víctima en el momento de su liberación, el motivo del rapto fue el pago de una importante cantidad de dinero que debía a los ahora arrestados.

La investigación policial se inició gracias a la denuncia del agregado de Interior de España en la Embajada de Varsovia (Polonia), quien informó de que la Oficina Central de Investigación de la Policía Polaca le había comunicado que una persona de nacionalidad polaca podría estar detenida ilegalmente y sufriendo graves agresiones.

Inmediatamente agentes especializados de la Sección de Secuestros y Extorsiones, con el apoyo del GRECO de Campo de Gibraltar, activaron el protocolo establecido e iniciaron una ardua

investigación que les condujo a las provincias de Málaga y Cádiz.

En la madrugada del 24 de julio los agentes logran ubicar exactamente la vivienda donde permanecía secuestrada la víctima.

Sobre las 03:00 horas de la madrugada, especialistas del Grupo Operativo Especial de Seguridad (GOES) de la Jefatura Superior de Policía de Andalucía Occidental asaltan la vivienda ubicada en un chalet de Punta Chullera en Manilva (Málaga). En la operación son detenidas cuatro personas, un ciudadano alemán y otros tres de origen polaco, a quienes se les imputan delitos de secuestro, lesiones, falsificación documental y contra la salud pública.

En el registro de la vivienda se intervino más de 4 kilos de hachís, 6.900 euros en efectivo, 3 ordenadores personales, teléfonos móviles, documentación falsa y material para atar y amordazar al secuestrado.

Police free kidnapped Pole in raid on a house in Manilva A raid by National Police officers on a property in the La Paloma area of Manilva led to the release of a 39 year old Polish man and the arrest of one German and three Polish nationals.

Police also seized a number of mobile phones and computers, along with more than 4 kilos of hashish and 6,900 euros in cash.

The man had been held for eight days, apparently in connection with a debt

owed to the captors who were demanding 20,000 euros for his release.

The raid on Saturday, 24th July, which was carried out by specialist officers from the National Police’s Kidnap and Extortion Section (UDEV), along with the GRECO organised crime squad and the Special Security Task Force (GOES), had been the result of information received by the Spanish Embassy in Warsaw.

Viaje a Granada, Visita a la Alhambra

NOTA INFORMATIVA

El nombre Alhambra tiene sus orígenes en una palabra árabe que significa “castillo rojo o bermellón”, debido quizás al tono de color de las torres y muros que rodean completamente la colina de La Sabica, que bajo la luz de las estrellas es de color plateado, pero bajo la luz del sol adquiere un tono dorado. Aunque existe una explicación más poética, narrada por los cronistas musulmanes que hablan de la construcción de la Alhambra “bajo la luz de las antorchas”. Creada originalmente con propósitos militares, la Alhambra era una alcazaba (fortín), un alcázar (palacio)

Manilva formará parte de un proyecto piloto nacional para la gestión telemática de sus propiedades Manilva formará parte de un proyecto piloto en el marco nacional que permitirá a sus vecinos consultar a través de internet y mediante una clave, el expediente catastral de cada uno de sus inmuebles, para poder revisar la situación de su vivienda y todos los datos que figuran asociados a la misma.

Así se desprende de la reunión mantenida por la alcaldesa, Antonia Muñoz, el concejal de Hacienda, Diego Díaz, y otros miembros del equipo de gobierno, con el gerente del catastro en la provincia y también representante del Patronato Provincial de Málaga, celebrada este mes.

Según apuntaba la regidora manilveña, los ciudadanos comenzarán a recibir en sus domicilios las cartas con su clave secreta para acceder a esta información

a partir del próximo mes de septiembre.

La alcaldesa, también destacó que este encuentro ha servido para abordar la culminación de los trabajos preliminares de la revisión catastral que se lleva a cabo en Manilva, esfuerzo que, a su juicio, redundará de manera positiva durante los próximos años en la economía municipal.

New scheme allows online consultation of property details Manilva will be part of a national project which will allow residents to consult the cadastral records for their personal properties in order to review the status of that property and any data referring to it.

The local authorities have announced that Manilva property owners, resident

in the municipality should expect to receive a letter during September with a personal password and details of how to access this information.

This is especially useful given the recent completion of the preliminary revision of the cadastral values currently being carried out in Manilva.

Hay multitud de diferentes folletos de Casares y el Secadero para leer en la biblioteca, así como gran variedad de materias de lectura bien almacenados.

Hemos finalizado el torneo de Petanca en el que Juan Quiroz y su esposa Rosario fueron los justos ganadores.

La final del torneo de Ping Pong femenino la ganó Elaine Bunn, la final masculina se decidió en la muerte súbita cuando un formidable John Hammond se impuso a un combativo Ron Bunn.

Nuestra bien planeada cena de “Fish and Chips” que suministró “Marlow’s” estaba muy caliente y fantástica. Fuimos 45 comensales acomodados en la sala del club, un par de bailes ayudó a hacer la digestión. Esta fue la primera, pero seguro que no la última, si tenemos en cuenta la multitud de comentarios positivos.

Para cualquier consulta sobre le Club o sus actividades, por favor contacte: maria.hammond@ hotmail.co.uk o 952 892 030.

Friends and Neighbours of Marina de Casares The Casares Town Hall’s library on the beach project which is operated by volunteers from the club is proving a great success with both children and adults, with hordes of readers descending on the hut as soon as the shutters go up. There is a wide selection of reading material, such as books, magazines and newspapers including of course, The Resident newspaper, along with information leaflets and brochures about the area.

The beach library will continue to operate into the early part of September.

Congratulations go to Juan Quiros and his wife Rosario who were outright winners of the club’s recent petanca competition.

Other sporting champions are Elaine Bunn, who won the Ladies’ Table Tennis final, whilst husband Ron Bunn just lost out to the formidable John Hammond in a tie break for the Men’s Final.

Another great success was the ‘Fish & Chip’ supper held in the club room. Forty-five members enjoyed piping hot fish and chips supplied by Marlows, with a dance or two after dinner to help the digestion. This was a very popular event which will no doubt be repeated.

JACK TAYLOR - Unicornio de Honor Jack Taylor (nacido como George Brown Randall) llegó a esta dimensión el 21 de octubre de 1936.

Alto, y bien parecido, con un rostro delgado, fino bigote y aire distinguido, Taylor comenzó su carrera a comienzos de los 50 actuando en un episodio de “The Jack Benny Show”, en el que aparecía Marilyn Monroe. Jack también tuvo papeles en series de televisión como “Sheena, Queen of the Jungle” y “Captain David Grief ”.

PAUL NASCHY - Premio Especial del Jurado Paul Naschy (Jacinto Molina de nombre real) nació el 06 de septiembre de 1934 y desde muy pequeño demostró una gran afición por todas las artes plásticas y como no por el cine. Su vocación nació el día que colándose en una sala del Madrid de los años 40 visionó “Frankenstein y el hombre lobo” (Roy William Neill 1943), desde entonces Su afición por el séptimo arte fue en aumento hasta nuestros días. Dentro del ámbito cinematográfico lo ha sido todo, actor, guionista, director y productor.

Su carrera empezó en 1966 en las ramas de dirección y producción a las órdenes de directores como Pedro Lazaga o Manuel Mur Oti pero antes de lanzarse a su vocación, Naschy tuvo tiempo de cursar bachillerato superior en Madrid, la carrera de ciencias exactas e iniciar la carrera de arquitectura.

Viernes 10 Septiembre, 20:30 h.

ALASKA - Waldemar Daninsky Olvido Gara Jova llega a Madrid en 1973, con diez años recién cumplidos. Apenas un par de años después comienza a interesarse por las pulsaciones alternativas de la cultura reflejadas en los movimientos musicales de la época.

Tras publicar en los fanzines de la “prensa marginal madrileña” ya con el nombre de Alaska, en 1977, con catorce años, forma junto a otros amigos su primer grupo, Kaka de Luxe, donde ejerce de guitarrista durante sólo diez meses.

Sábado 11 de Septiembre a las 21:00 h JUAN JOSÉ RYP - Unicornio al Mejor Dibujante de Cómics Juan José RYP (Juan José Rodríguez Prieto), algecireño, nacido 1971 y dibujante de historietas. Probablemente dos características marquen su carrera y definan su estilo: las chicas (Centenares de personajes femeninos se vieron retratados por su lápiz) y el detalle casi obsesivo con el que llena cada una de las viñetas.

12 de Septiembre a las 21:00 h.

Monday 6 September, 8.30 pm.

JACK TAYLOR - Unicorn of Honour Jack Taylor was born as George Brown Randall on October 21, 1936. Tall, slim and handsome, with a lean face, a pencil thin mustache, and a distinguished air about him, Taylor began his acting career in the early 50s on “The Jack Benny Show,” in which he co-starred with Marilyn Monroe. Jack also had roles on the TV shows “Sheena, Queen of the Jungle” and “Adventures of Captain Grief.” He then went to Mexico and acted in a few stage plays. Taylor subsequently appeared in such Mexican horror pictures as “The Curse of Nostradamus” and “The Monsters Demolisher.” In addition, he worked for reigning master Mexican horror directors Frederico Curiel and Alphonso Corona Blake. Jack next moved to Spain in the early 60s.

PAUL NASCHY - Special Jury Prize Paul Naschy reigns supreme as the true king of Spanish horror cinema. He often cited seeing Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943) in a theatre at age eleven as a seminal inspirational experience (his later movies would be filled with references to it). In 1967 Paul wrote the script for Frankenstein’s Bloody Terror (1968). He was forced out of necessity to play the lead role of tormented werewolf Waldermar Daninsky after Lon Chaney, Jr. turned it down. He reprised this character in over a dozen subsequent sequels. Naschy’s portrayals of the anguished and sympathetic werewolf Daninsky became his signature part and consolidated his enduring cult status as

a bona-fide horror icon. Paul was for many years a director of the Estepona film festival and sadly Paul Naschy died last year of pancreatic cancer just months after a street in Estepona was named after him.

Friday 10 September, 8.30 pm.

ALASKA - Waldemar Daninsky Award Alaska (born Olvido Gara Jova, born in Mexico City) is a Spanish - Mexican singer, dj, and TV personality famous in Spain and Latin America. She was one of the main characters in the so called Movida, the cultural movement following the Franco dictatorship in Spain. This movement in which music, arts, cinema and fashion erupted and collided to confirm the actual society Spain had become under Franco. She has participated since the last part of the seventies in several groups of different success: Kaka de Luxe 1977, Alaska y los Pegamoides 1980, Alaska y Dinarama 1983 and since 1989 the duet Fangoria. She is also one of Spain’s main gay icons.

Saturday 11 September, 9.00 pm JUAN JOSÉ RYP - Unicorn for Best Comic Artist Juan Jose Ryp is a Spanish comic book artist born in Algeciras and known, among other things, for his work on Black Summer with Warren Ellis. In Spain he contributed to erotic comics anthology magazines. After a long run of working at Avatar, In 2010 he got work at Marvel Comics on Vengeance of the Moon Knight, and it was announced that he’d be the artist on a new Wolverine series, Wolverine: The Best There Is along with writer Charlie Huston.

Sunday 12 September, 9.00 pm Concert by the Province of Malaga Symphony Orchestra The Malaga Provincial Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Francisco de Gálvez, will perform some of the most memorable scores of the fantasy and horror genre from the best film score composers such as John Williams, which will prove a treat for the film fans in the audience.

XX Feria Canina de ADANA El popular “concurso de chuchos” celebrará en septiembre su vigésimo aniversario con un evento muy especial.

Sólo dos años después de la fundación de la protectora de animales ADANA, tuvo lugar en Estepona la primera feria canina para perros, conocida popularmente como el “concurso de chuchos”, ya que se trata de una competición abierta a perros mestizos y de todo tipo, en la que se combinan las pruebas para animales adiestrados con otras más sencillas. Con la llegada este año de su vigésima edición, ADANA celebrará una feria muy especial el domingo 19 de septiembre en el Palacio de Congresos de Estepona.

Habrá cinco categorías de competición de obediencia, cinco de agilidad y otras diez para otras competiciones variadas, incluyendo aquellas para perros que nunca antes hayan participado en una competición y también para cachorros.

La feria contará con un buen número de puestos en los que se podrán adquirir productos para mascotas, así como un bar y un puesto de comidas y café. Por primera vez, será un espacio cubierto el escenario para la feria, que en las pasadas 19 ediciones se celebró al aire libre.

“Es fantástico que por primera vez no

tengamos que estar pendientes del tiempo o de los incendios forestales”, comentó David McNally, que dirige la organización del evento. “A lo largo de estos años, la organización de la feria se ha visto afectada por lluvias torrenciales, temperaturas extremas demasiado altas para los perros o, el año pasado, un incendio en el lugar donde se celebraba la feria solo unos días antes del evento.”

Este año, los principales protagonistas de la feria serán los niños y sus perros: los más pequeños tendrán la oportunidad de mostrar el talento y las habilidades de sus mascotas. También está prevista una exhibición de perros-policía que crecieron o pasaron por ADANA. La XX Feria Canina de ADANA abrirá sus puertas a las 10 de la mañana, para que los asistentes tengan tiempo de inscribir a sus perros en las diferentes competiciones, que comenzarán a las 11 en punto. La entrada a la feria costará 5€ para adultos, aunque los niños que vayan acompañados entrarán gratis. La inscripción en competiciones cuesta 4€, y puede realizarse ya rellenando el formulario que puede encontrarse en clínicas veterinarias o en la página web de ADANA: www.adana.es

20th ADANA Dog Show Only two years after the foundation of ADANA, the animal rescue charity, the first dog show for mixed breeds and other dogs was staged in Estepona. This year the show reaches 20 and plans a very special event.

On Sunday 19 September the 20th show will be staged in the Palacio de Congresos in Estepona for the first time. There will be 5 obedience classes, 5 agility classes and 10 variety and novelty classes. A wide selection of commercial stalls will offer all sorts of pet related and other goodies.

There will also be a cafe and a bar.

“It is wonderful not to have to worry about the weather or forest fires this year”, said David McNally, the show organiser. “Over the years we have had to deal with biblical rains which washed away the access roads, torrid heat which was too much for the dogs and last year we had the forest fire on the site just a few days before the show.”

The main focus for this year is children and their dogs. So there are several opportunities for junior handlers to show off their skills. We hope to have a demonstration

of mainly ex ADANA dogs who now work for the police and armed services.

The doors open at 10am for registration and judging starts at 11.00 on the dot.

Admission is 5 € for adults but accompanied children get in free. Entry to classes is 4€.

Entry forms are available from vets and on the web site www.adana.es

Estepona Today and Viewpoint A weekly radio programme in English, each Saturday 2 pm to 3 pm on Radio Television Estepona 107.2 fm.

Información Information

Working in Spain British Consulate Pension, Benefit & Healthcare Team If you are working in Spain: You should have a social security number and speak with your employer about paying national insurance contributions if you are not yet doing so.

If you are self employed: You need to register with the TGSS as an autonomo and pay contributions directly to them. Register by completing form TA-521 Paying national insurance contributions if you are working in Spain is important.

Doing so builds up your entitlement to a pension and certain benefits. Also, as Spain operates a contributions-based healthcare system, paying social security contributions will ensure you, and any dependants, are covered for medical treatment.

If you are working in Spain, you are subject to Spanish social security legislation.

Top 5 tips for workers: •

•

•

•

If you are working in Spain, you should apply in writing for any pension or benefit through the Spanish authorities.

Make sure you mention on your benefit application any previous work you have done in other EEA countries (including the UK) and any dependants you have this may increase your entitlement.

If you have worked a combined total of 15 years in Spain and any other EEA country, you may be entitled to a Spanish state pension.

Contributing as autonomo does not give you entitlement to unemployment benefit although if you sign-on for a year you may be entitled to a benefit called ‘Renta Activa de Inserción’.

•

•

If you are autonomo, it is essential you inform the TGSS when you stop work to avoid building up a debt to social security.

Spanish pension/benefits information – www.seg-social.es or www.sepe.es

What is the TGSS? The Tesorería General de la Seguridad Social (TGSS) is the organisation in Spain responsible for registering employers and workers and collecting national insurance contributions.

The equivalent in the UK would be HM Revenue and Customs.

If you are working in Spain, whether as an employee or as self employed, you should be registered with the TGSS. The services they provide include: • Registering and de-registering employers and workers on the social security system.

• Assigning social security numbers.

• Managing the collection of social security contributions.

• Providing social security contribution records, the ‘vida laboral’. You can request this by telephone (901 50 20 50) or via the social security website www. seg-social.es.

Costa Advice Bureau Home owners note the hidden dangers in your rental contract Many rental contracts are drawn up by persons who may not be aware of the law relating to these documents. Some home owners are lulled into a false sense of security by the premise that by drawing up a contract for five or eleven months they are protected by law. This is not the case. After the date of the termination of the contract, the occupant will not have to vacate the premises unless it can be proved that they are owners of another estate in Spain. These tenants will be able to stay in the property for a period of up to five years. The landlord will not be able to take action to regain possession of their home unless the tenant fails to pay the rent. Check that your contract complies with Spanish law and always seek advice before signing tenancy agreements.

Harassment on the roads is to be made an offence At long last action is being taken against those irresponsible drivers who tailgate a vehicle forcing the driver in front to accelerate. This is to include road users who use insulting gestures. Both could end up in jail for their reckless attitude. The prosecutor and road safety coordinator, Bartolomé Vargas will instruct the police

to pursue these persons who endanger the lives of others. Drivers or those who witness this form of harassment are being encouraged to denounce the offender to the authorities.

The prosecutor further explained that is some cases the courts will proceed to seize the vehicle of an offender as from next December when this law comes into force with the reform of the Penal Code.

The state attorney general has yet to issue an order with specific instructions.

Vargas has stated that vehicles will only be forfeited in the most serious cases.

An example would be in the case of a repeat offender. It has been suggested that the confiscated vehicles be sold and the money used to compensate the victims Harassment is now considered to be a widespread form of violence on Spanish roads. According to the prosecutor, these attitudes put other drivers under such extreme pressure that can cause the victim to lose control of the vehicle.

Therefore, if the offense creates a real danger, the antagonistic driver can be charged for the crime of reckless driving, which is punishable by up to two years in prison.

También hay un libro especial que se emite por su veterinario para los propietarios de mascotas exóticas, entre ellas Psiticine aves (loros, aves parecidas a los loros como periquitos ) y los Cochinos Vietnamitas, en la cual los tratamientos requeridos también serán documentados.

New rabies vaccination laws in Andalucia The Junta de Andalucia has recently changed the laws regarding pets and rabies vaccination. This new law which requires that all dogs, cats, and ferrets be vaccinated annually - not every two years as had been the case for all pets not kept for hunting, which had already been required to be vaccinated annually against rabies. All animals not yet vaccinated against rabies, from three months of age on, must be vaccinated, revaccinated thirty days later and given annual boosters against rabies. These pets are also required to be identified through the use of a microchip.

A microchip is a numbered electronic device the size of a grain of rice, which is implanted through the use of an injection under the skin, similiar to how a vaccination is administered.

A record of this microchip number and rabies vaccination will be annotated in the official vaccination record book, or Pets Passport as recognised by the European Union, it will also be registered with the central pets registry (RAIA). These new regulations also include other stipulations.

All pets, (dogs, cats, and ferrets) must be treated annually against Echinococcus, a type of internal parasite. This should be included in the regular worming treatments recommended by your Veterinarian, living in this area it should be done every 3 months and noted at least annually in the Passport.

If your dog has been diagnosed as having Leishmaniasis, Sand-Fly Fever, you are now obliged - by law - to choose between,

ÂĄMĂĄlaga C.F. y Hamilton Academical F.C. recaudan 20.700â&#x201A;Ź por Cudeca!

El 28 de Julio, se celebrĂł el partido solidario a beneficio de la FundaciĂłn Cudeca entre el MĂĄlaga C.F. y el Hamilton Academical F.C. en el Polideportivo Municipal de Arroyo de la Miel. Gracias a la ayuda del Ayuntamiento de BenalmĂĄdena y su Patronato de Deportes, el MĂĄlaga C.F., el Hamilton Academic F.C., el Polideportivo Municipal de Arroyo de la Miel, el Colegio de Ă rbitros, ProtecciĂłn Civil, Cruz Roja, la Policia Nacional y Local, otros muchos colaboradores y el pĂşblico asistente, conseguimos recaudar 20.700â&#x201A;Ź, que se destinarĂĄn a salvar la Unidad de Ingresos de su grave situaciĂłn econĂłmica y prevenir la posibilidad de su cierre a final de aĂąo.

Con esta recaudaciĂłn solidaria Cudeca podrĂĄ atender a 1 paciente en la Unidad de Ingresos del centro durante 74 dĂ­as. Actualmente no podemos hacer frente al coste de la Unidad de Ingresos, donde cuidamos a los pacientes con situaciones muy difĂ­ciles y urgentes.

La respuesta de la comunidad a este evento deportivo solidario superĂł las expectativas previstas, todo un hecho sin precedentes que provocĂł que se concentrasen a las puertas del Polideportivo muchas mĂĄs de las 1.350 personas que el recinto podĂ­a acoger por normas de seguridad. Desde Cudeca queremos agradecer a todas las personas que acudieron en ayuda a Cudeca, y les animamos de todo corazĂłn a que continĂşen ayudĂĄndonos a seguir aĂąadiendo vida a los dĂ­as de los pacientes que nos necesitan y que atendemos de manera gratuita.

MĂĄlaga C.F. and Hamilton Academical F.C. match raises 20.700â&#x201A;Ź for Cudeca!

On 28th July, a charity football match was held in aid of Cudeca between Malaga C.F. and Hamilton Academical F.C. at the Municipal Sports Centre in Arroyo de la Miel.

Thanks to the support of the Benalmadena Town Hall and its Sports Council, MĂĄlaga C.F, Hamilton Academical F.C., the association of Referees, Civil Protection, Red Cross, National and Local Police, other many volunteers and the public, Cudeca managed to raise an impressive 20.700â&#x201A;Ź, which will help to save the In-Patient Unit from its severe financial situation and prevent the possibility of its closure at the end of the year.

With these funds, Cudeca can care for a patient in the InPatient Unit of the centre for 74 days. They are currently unable to meet the expenses of this unit, where they take care of patients in the most difficult and urgent of circumstances.

The communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response to this sporting event exceeded expectations, with an unprecedented concentration of supporters turning up at the entrance gates, with only a safety capacity of 1.350. Cudeca wish to thank all the people who came along to support charity, and wholeheartedly encourages the community to continue helping them to give life to the days of patients who need their cost-free care.

Mensaje de verano de SOS MĂŠdicos 24HS, Director MĂŠdico, Dr. Harry Forcillo Mensaje de verano de SOS MĂŠdicos 24HS, Director MĂŠdico, Dr. Harry Forcillo: Nosotros en SOS MĂŠdicos 24HS nos gustarĂ­a mandarle un mensaje de buena fortuna, algĂşn consejo de ayuda y tambiĂŠn unas palabras de precauciĂłn, para ayudarle a disfrutar de un tiempo saludable y agradable.

La tan esperada temporada estival nos hace evocar el descanso y el relax. Todos nos lo merecemos, Âżverdad?

LlegĂł el momento de no estar tan pendientes del reloj, de dar a los mĂşsculos un renovado vigor, y permitir que la mente se extravĂ­e entre las hojas de un libro de ficciĂłn o con una buena pelĂ­cula.

Ha llegado la hora de caminar por la paya, zambullirnos en la piscina o el mar, escalar una colina o dar extensos paseos en la bicicleta.

Y recuerde, el descanso es tan necesario para el organismo como la actividad laboral que nos permite vivir y mejorar nuestra calidad de vida, para tener vidas mĂĄs saludables.

Claro que como todas las estaciones, el verano viene de la mano de algunos problemillas que, como agentes de la salud, tenemos la obligaciĂłn de destacar y advertir.

El mar, por ejemplo, nos depara sorpresas. Tengamos cuidado con las MEDUSAS, que al simple contacto con la piel humana liberan poderosas e irritantes toxinas que producen dolor y escozor insoportables. ÂĄPor favor, evĂ­tenlos!

En la playa pisar un ERIZO DE MAR harĂĄ que en nuestros pies se incrusten dolorosas espinas, las cuales harĂĄn que debamos concurrir al mĂŠdico. ÂĄPor favor, estad lejos de ellos!

Otra contingencia que nos depara el mar son los accidentes por inmersiĂłn y su mĂĄxima tragedia: la asfixia por inmersiĂłn o ahogamiento.

Cuidemos sobre todo a los niĂąos; que no se alejen demasiado de la costa y siempre estĂŠn protegidos por salvavidas de caucho. ÂĄCUIDADO CON EL SOL! El Sol, tan benĂŠfico y e imprescindible para la vida, puede provocar severas quemaduras que nos pueden arruinar las vacaciones. Es por ello que siempre debamos estar protegidos con cremas solares para no vernos agredidos por el inefable Febo.

Tampoco olvidemos la acciĂłn cancerĂ­gena de los rayos ultravioletas, y que estos tienen efecto acumulativo.

La alimentaciĂłn durante el verano nos expone a

gastroenteritis e infecciones del tracto intestinal, (producto de la ingesta de comidas en dudoso estado de conservaciĂłn).

Preferir siempre los alimentos frescos, tratando de evitar las mahonesas o helados cuya cadena de frĂ­o no sea del todo confiable.

Es necesario UNA BUENA HIDRATACION DEL CUERPO. Recordad que el 60% del organismo humano estĂĄ compuesto de agua, por lo que debemos ingerir mucho lĂ­quido durante el dĂ­a, preferentemente soluciones isotĂłnicas.

TambiĂŠn el verano no expone a caĂ­das, heridas cortantes, torceduras o esguinces y una multitud de problemas que los mĂŠdicos vemos a diario en la consulta. ÂĄAsĂ­ que una vez mĂĄs, hay que estar un poco mĂĄs atentos!

Desearía acabar deseåndoles que viva este verano a su måximo y deseo que disfrute del descanso en la compaùía de sus familias y amigos. ¥ I recuerden, SOS MÊdicos 24HS estån aquí para protegerle todo el aó, porque tú y tu familia nos importa!

Para mĂĄs informaciĂłn, por favor llĂĄmenos durante el horario de oficina a +34 951 27 72 70 o visĂ­tenos en nuestra oficina en Manilva, o mire nuestra pĂĄgina web www.sosmedicos24hs.com para mĂĄs detalles. ÂĄQUE TENGAN UN VERANO MARAVILLOSO! Dr. Haroldo Miguel Forcillo Medical Director SOS MĂŠdicos 24HS

Summer message from SOS Medicos 24HS Medical Director, Dr. Harry Forcillo We at SOS MĂŠdicos 24 HS would like to send out a message of good fortune, some helpful advice and also a few words of caution, to help you to enjoy a healthy and pleasurable time.

The much awaited, summer period gives us the opportunity to enjoy some rest and relaxation.

We all deserve it, right? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a time not to be watching the clock, but to reinvigorate the muscles and allow the mind to get lost in the pages of a novel or a good film.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also a time to walk on the beach, to dive in the swimming pool or sea, to climb a hill or go for long rides on a bike.

And remember, rest is as necessary for the body as working activity, and that it allows us to improve our quality of life and indeed, to live healthier lives.

Of course, as all seasons, summer comes hand in hand with some small problems, that, as medical experts, we have the obligation to point out and make timely warnings about.

For example, the sea has some surprises in store for us. We have to be careful with the JELLYFISH that at a simple contact with the human skin release powerful and irritating toxins that produce unbearable pain and a burning sensation. Please avoid them!

On the beach, stepping on a SEA URCHIN will embed painful spines in our feet, which will oblige us to have to go and see the doctor. Please keep away from them!

Another danger from the sea is accidents through immersion and in extreme cases, its maximum tragedy â&#x20AC;&#x201C; suffocation through immersion, or drowning!

We especially have to look after the kids, so they don´t go too far from the coast and that they are always protected by life jackets.

And for the adults, it is advised that the limited danger areas with buoys placed by the marine

authorities of civil protection are respected.

BE CAREFUL ALSO WITH THE SUN! The Sun is so beneficial and essential for life and can provoke severe burning that can ruin our holidays. For this reason we must always be protected with sun lotion so we won´t be assaulted by the ineffable Phoebus.

And, please donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget the carcinogenic action of the ultraviolet rays, and that they have a cumulative effect.

The alimentation in the summer exposes us to gastroenteritis and infections of the digestive tract, (the product of the digestion of food in a doubtful state of conservation.)

Always have a preference for fresh products, trying to avoid fresh made mayonnaise and ice cream that hasn´t been kept in a reliable cooling system.

It is also very necessary to have GOOD BODY HYDRATION. Remember that 60% of the human body is made of water, and for this reason we have to drink lots of liquid during the day, preferably isotonic solutions.

Also summer makes us vulnerable to falls, sharp injuries, twisting or sprains and a multitude of problems that us doctors see every day at consultations.

So, once again, please take that extra bit of care!

I would like to finish and wish you to live the summer at its fullest and hope you´ll enjoy a rest in the company of your families and friends.

And remember, SOS MĂŠdicos 24HS are here to protect you all year round, because we care about you and your family!

El cava es un vino espumoso elaborado por el método tradicional principalmente en la región del Penedés (Cataluña), especialmente en la localidad de Sant Sadurní d’Anoia. También se elabora cava con denominación de origen en otros puntos de España, además de en Cataluña, como en Requena (Valencia), Haro y Grávalos (La Rioja) o Mendavia (Navarra), Extremadura (comarcas de La Plata y Los Barros), Aragón y en Aranda de Duero (Burgos).

Según consta en el libro “De l’Aiguardent al Cava” de Josep Colomé Ferrer editado con la colaboración de la Generalitast de Catalunya y el Consejo regulador del Cava, por la editorial El 3 de vui: El cava se comenzó a producir a partir de las

investigaciones de Luis Justo Villanueva en el Instituto Agrícola Catalán de San Isidro que defendió el método champañés (méthode champenoise).

En 1887 llegó la plaga de la filoxera al Penedés arruinando los cultivos de uva.

Esto, conllevó una renovación de las variedades utilizadas, con la introducción de cepas blancas de calidad autóctonas, en sustitución de variedades negras. Esta sustitución facilitó el desarrollo del cava ya que adquirió personalidad propia.

El 1972, ante el conflicto con Francia por la denominación protegida champán, se constituyó el Consejo Regulador de los Vinos Espumosos que lanzó la marca Cava recogiendo el nombre común ya utilizado de vino de cava.

Cava is a Spanish sparkling wine made in the traditional method of the French sparkling wine Champagne. The definition of Cava is Vino Espumoso de Calidad Producido en una Región Determinada (VECPRD). It originated in the Catalonia region at the Codorníu Winery in the late 19th century. The wine was originally known as Champaña until Spanish producers officially adopted the term “Cava” (cellar) in 1970 in reference to the underground cellars in which the wines ferment and age in the bottle. The early Cava industry was nurtured by the phylloxera epidemic of the late 19th that caused the destruction and uprooting of vineyards planted with red grape varieties.

Inspired by the success of Champagne, Codorníu and others encouraged vineyard owners to replant with white grape varieties like Macabeo, Parellada and Xarel·lo to use

for sparkling wine production. These grapes are still the primary grapes of Cava today though some producers are experimenting with the use of the Champagne wine grapes of Chardonnay and Pinot noir.

For most of existence, the production of Cava was not regulated to a particular region of DO but rather to the grapes and method of production. Upon Spain’s acceptance into the European Union in 1986, efforts were undertaken to designate specific areas for Cava production. Today use of the term “Cava” is restricted to production around select municipalities in Catalonia, Aragon, Castile and León, Valencia, Extremadura, Navarra, Basque Country and Rioja. Around 95% of Spain’s total Cava production is from Catalonia with the village of Sant Sadurní d’Anoia being home to many of Spain’s largest production houses.

Baños en La Playa

R

ompe o abre el cielo un crepúsculo de gaviotas. Las familias han estado en la playa. El sol ha ofrecido su perfume de luz como una fuente que arde y al atardecer se marcha; es por eso que las gaviotas desde el cielo con alas de arena, iluminadas, bordean la vieja torre y la inmensa roca que está cercana a la orilla, y que algunas veces se viste con las olas al antojo de las mareas.

Todos están... Allí los hombres, como pausas de agua, como barcos del tiempo. Todos celebran el cumpleaños del mar. Hay un mar rebelde que se desintegra en hojas azules porque un árbol dormido despertó en el otoño a un amor imposible y pleno del pirata...

Mas, hay un mar no viejo, no anciano, un mar sin tiempo, sin barrera de carne o materia de sazón. Este mar tiene las virtudes de la paz; es sereno, sus olas dejan jugar siempre a los niños en la orilla: (una mano en la arena en el hoyo del sueño) y canta tibia en la superficie, y abajo las raíces del mar refrescan para que la arena húmeda se pegue en las manos; y los niños en traje de baño confíen saltar el montículo, casi una duna que han elaborado, antes que se deshaga, una duna o preñado de playa.

En este mar del que hablo, nadan hombres y mujeres, pendientes del día claro y la noche azul; este mar enjuga con algas de sal los cuerpos; y nadar allí es como volar, es verter el duelo del

Fácil Easy pecho por las manos. También hay un mar de noche extendida, dormido para siempre, que se quedó en la gloria del perfume de la dama de noche, y que no supo andar en el amanecer porque unas huellas dolían realmente.

El mar, el que nace ahora y después, el único mar, el que está vivo en los ojos: y allí se baña un mundo, abierto con el aire cada casa de iris, el corazón besado de corrientes al nadar el universo junto a nosotros. Abrigado de agua el ojo resbala, reconoce a esos familiares,

a esos amigos (un mar de amigos en las faldas del agua) que comparten la playa y saben que el color del cielo ahora ha cambiado –el atardecer lo rompe...–, y la arena es un telón de espuma ligera, dorada y suave, de huellas que ceden a las gaviotas su estancia.

Aguacero en Julio

L

a lluvia cae, no pregunta a la tierra porque hoy es la dueña de los cielos: no le interesa si al verano le preocupa que se derrame un aguacero. Algunos veraneantes no podrán ir a la playa... “Sí –dice Pepe, el campesino–. Sí que irán, porque estos son nublados de verano, y, después, hará más calor, ¡ya verás a la tarde!”

Sale el hijo de un veraneante a la calle y canta: “¡Que llueva, que llueva....!”

“No, no, no –le dice la madre–, que no llueva, que no llueva, porque oh, uff, oh, no podremos ir a la playa, la playa...”

Pero la lluvia cae amable, ligera, y cala el corazón de la tierra, y el pueblo siente en sus calles el fresco chaparrón de estas aguas que en julio han venido a bendecir los tejados de las casas. Y aunque muchos se quejan, el mundo de la lluvia no comprende porqué lo hacen, y en su manera infantil de querer humedecer el alma del pueblo

se da cuenta de que ha desorientado el proyecto de muchos que hoy tendrán que cambiar sus actividades: tal vez verán televisión o leerán sentados cómodamente en casa, mientras un ventilador despeja el calor y la humedad e intenta distraerlos; o mirarán desde sus ventanas cómo llueve suavemente...

Y dice uno: “La naturaleza es sabia, si llueve, no es a gusto de todos...”

Y dice otro: “¿Es que sin agua se puede vivir?”

Y otro: “Aunque no estamos a finales de julio, algo de daño le hace esta lluvia a la vid. ¿O no? ¡Qué sé yo!... ¡Es buena para la atmósfera. Existen tantas enfermedades...!”

La suave lluvia sigue cayendo.

Hay nubes que despiertan. Es casi mediodía, y como si desearan seguir derramándose, toman la forma de una oscura mansión en el cielo, cada nube unida toma aspecto de un mundo

pleno: el mundo de la lluvia hoy cayendo moderadamente en el pueblo.

Spanish Inherintances Taxes – Chapter I The Murder in Whirligig Lane Inheritances taxes are something that all families will have to deal with. Unfortunately, sooner or later our relatives will die and the taxman will be waiting for us. It is convenient to be informed to try to avoid or minimize these taxes.

There are many controversies about Spanish inheritances taxes. Too many people providing professional Tax opinions and suggesting magical ways to avoid inheritance taxes (company structures, fictitious mortgages, etc) without having the proper qualifications. Taxman is not stupid and you must be careful about these “magical ways to avoid taxes “which can be at the end a big problem.

I will try to point out in 3 chapters a summary of main answers and clarifications on Spanish Inheritance Taxes.

These answers and comments come from inheritances cases and the enquiries and questions I have received from hundred of clients in over 10 years of professional experience.

Laws which rule inheritance Everybody must know that Laws which rule the Inheritance and estates are the ones of the nationality of the individual.

Should you are Spanish; your inheritance will be rule according the Spanish Law. Should you are British; Laws applicable to your

inheritance will be the British ones.

This rule is in reference to the legal way to distribute your assets, rights of relatives, etc. but not in reference the Inheritance taxes to be paid in Spain. Should you have any assets in Spain (real estate, car, bank account, shares, etc), they will be distributed according to your wishes and national law, but you would have to pay Inheritances taxes in Spain, but not in your own country.

Importance of making a Spanish will Should you are the owner of any assets in Spain (real estate property, bank account, etc), it is recommendable making a Spanish will, despite the fact that making made a will does not affect to the amount of inheritance taxes to be paid nor to the legal rights of your relatives to inherit your assets. Not having a will does not mean that you assets will to the Government but to your relatives.

Everybody must know that.

Therefore the main reason for making a Spanish will is to save time, money and worries to your relatives when you passed away.

The solicitor of your heirs will also be very happy that you have made a Will because it will facilitate legal inheritance paperwork’s.

Having a Spanish will makes things easier (your wishes are clearly

stated in writing and nobody can discuss them avoiding disputes between relatives), cheaper (as there are many expenses when translating documents on states from other countries), and quicker (Inheritance taxes must be paid within 6 months from the date of the death). Spanish wills make easier all Legal & Tax paperwork’s.

Spanish Wills must be signed in front of a Public Notary and the cost of making it is approximately 70 Euros. We recommend everybody doing it.

In next 2 chapters (to be published in next 2 months) we will comment these other issues: Importance of tax residence in Spain.

There are no magical ways to avoid inheritance taxes.

Special family circunstances ( people not married, homosexual, parnerts, etc) How much are the inheritance taxes? Scale of inheritance rates in Andalucia.

Example of inheritance case.

What you must do a person owning any asset in Spain.

New novel by Mary Chiappe and Sam Benady

Local author Mary Chiappe has recently launched the first in a series of detective novels, written together with childhood friend Sam Benady, the books feature the amateur detective Giovanni Bresciano, and the first in the series, ‘The Murder in Whirligig Lane’ sees our hero solving the murder of a beautiful Spanish refugee in a yellow fever ridden Gibraltar of 1813.

Gibraltarian Mary Chiappe retired to Manilva after teaching English and Drama for 40 years in Spain, England and Gibraltar and has written a number of books, including ‘The Grapes of Warmth’ and ‘Cabbages and Kings’ as well as being a regular columnist in the Gibraltar Chronicle.

Co-author Sam Benady, retired eight years ago as Consultant Paediatrician at St. Bernard’s Hospital, and since then has devoted himself to researching the history of Gibraltar, and helping to protect its heritage.

Sam has written a number of books on the history of Gibraltar as well as novels including ‘The Keys of the City’ and a couple of short stories bringing Sherlock Holmes to Gibraltar.

Describing the writing process, Mary and Sam take it in turns to write the first chapter, after which

the other will check and tweak until every chapter becomes a blend of both authors’ work.

With Sam providing the historical accuracy and Mary providing the emotional narrative, the whole is so much greater than the sum of its parts.

The pair are currently working on the fourth in the series, with the second hitting the bookshelves at the end of this year.

‘The Murder in Whirligig Lane’ is published by Calpe Press and is available at The English Bookshop, Sabinillas; Longmans Bookshop, Estepona; and the Estepona Port Business and Internet Centre.

European Banking System / Stress Test

£€ How many times of late have you switched on your radio, television or simply read in the papers about “Stress Tests”? It has almost become, or seems so of late, the new financial Buzz Phrase.

The European Banking System has recently undergone its stress tests and maybe surprisingly in some quarters has come out with a very satisfactory result, although the results were supposed to be kept secret until the official announcement there was no surprise with the names of the Banks that did not pass the test. However even in Europe we were behind the Chinese who undertook their review back in May where it had a greater impact than was intended. Some prudent bankers felt it necessary to be cautious and wrote down property values on their books by 60% even thought the official figures showed 30% the result

being a sell off in bank and the real estate sector shares. Fortunately within the Eurozone the market did not seem that bothered and the results from the ECB testing did not have any major impact upon the £ to euro exchange rate.

Thankfully there was also good news from Greece at last who it seems are toeing the line with their Budget Rebalancing Act and both the International Monetary Fund and The European Central Bank representatives who completed their visit to Athens declared themselves satisfied with Greece’s recent “ impressive progress”. This meant that Greece was able to drawdown a further 9 billion euros from the bailout fund. I would happily show them my financial plans if they are prepared to offer me similar!!

All this meant that the euro did not lose ground and the range during the last couple of weeks has been between €1.175 to €1.21.

The recent review of the economy within the Eurozone saw interest rates being held by The ECB for a 15th month in a row reflecting certain optimism about the prospects of growth, heres the negative whilst showing some doubt about the speed of

recovery.

The UK however managed to beat the 15 months by holding rates for a staggering 18th consecutive month with good news coming out of the UK seeing Factory orders at its highest for 2 years, GDP recording a stronger 2nd quarter performance and UK retailers talking about stronger growth in the coming month. Maybe at last people are finding the ability to spend again. All sounds very good until you hear questions being asked about the state of the UK housing market and the recent result showing a drop in UK mortgage approvals still you cant win them all.

So for the present the focus

A Healthier Life

The Resident - www.theresident.es

to the pool ledge, straighten your legs behind you, now kick furiously, making a big splash, do this for 10 seconds, take a quick breather and repeat as many times as you can, aim for 10 times. This works your heart and lungs and all the muscles between shoulders and toes.

‘Swimming is a brilliant form of exercise’

JoJo France and Claudia Norris Welcome to the new Health, Nutrition and Fitness Column!

A combination of good healthy eating and sweaty exercise can help the body address many health concerns. Personal Trainer JoJo France and Nutritional Therapist Claudia Norris have teamed up to offer practical advice on one health concern each month. This month we’re looking at high blood pressure.

1 in 4 people worldwide have high blood pressure which can lead to strokes, heart attacks and other serious illnesses – most of us do not know we have it and this is why it is known as “The Silent Killer”

The Personal Trainer Regular exercise strengthens your heart so it can pump more blood around your body with less effort. This reduces the force on your arteries, lowering blood pressure. When we talk about ‘regular exercise’ people always think gym, running or something predictable, but exercise can be many things.

The experts recommend 30-40 minutes medium intensity workouts every day, but what is considered ‘medium intensity’? The body works best when it gets a little hot and sweaty, so anything that makes your heart beat little quicker so that your skin starts to perspire is good for you. Medium intensity is when you can still speak but you are a little out of breath, not so much as you begin to pant out loud (or swear out loud) but not so easy that you can tell a story for 20 minutes either.

As a fitness expert, I always recommend the use of a heart rate monitor to achieve for your optimum workout. These are available cheaply at most sports shops for around 20 euros.

Aim to workout at around 80% of your maximum heart rate. To work out your heart rate, take 220 and subtract your age - this is 100% maximum. Now take off 20% and that will give you your goal. It may take some time for you to be able to reach your 80% goal, but aim to get closer to it on every workout.

For some people the thought of hitting the gym for half an

hour every day is unimaginable. The good news is you don’t have too! Here in Spain we are lucky with our weather and most of us have access to either a pool or the sea, so here are some suggestions that can be called exercise but at the same time are fun and quite easy to do. Your 30-40 mins doesn’t have to be taken at the same time, so you could split your ‘workouts’ in to 2 x20 min sections.

Some of my favorites include: Power walking in the waves - Don’t go deep (ankle depth is perfect) walk at a brisk pace, swing your arms and squeeze your bum, walk 10 mins in one direction and turn around and walk back. Great for heart lungs, legs and bum.

Messing around in the pool - Swimming is a brilliant exercise, but even non-swimmers can have fun in the pool, hold on

Bat and Ball - This is such an easy game to play and can be played anywhere; in the pool, on the beach even in the lounge. It’s great for co-ordination and can get the heart pumping. Maybe make your next BBQ an activity day, make up teams and play bat and ball and enjoy some pool activities too!

Exercise should be a way of life and not a chore. Try and find something that makes you feel good afterwards, and remember to drink plenty of water, before during and after your workout.

The Nutritional Therapist When a client comes to me with high blood pressure, the aspects of that person’s diet I’m most interested with are: salt; fruit and veg; alcohol, caffeinated tea and coffee; whether they choose white bread and white rice options over wholegrains; saturated fats versus good fats from oily fish and nuts and seeds; and hydration levels. If a client is overweight I will help them lose weight as this can reverse blood pressure problems.

For this first article on high blood pressure, I’m going to focus on salt: why it’s bad for blood pressure, how to understand

This advert 80mm x 46mm Black and White for just 10 euros per month Este Anuncio 80mm x 46mm Blanco y Negro Para sólo 10 euros al mes 952 936 198 editor@theresident.eu Spanish food labels regarding salt, and easy ways to cut down on salt.

Too much salt causes your body to retain more water, and the increased water in blood vessels increases blood pressure.

It also puts more pressure on your kidneys which are responsible for excreting salt from your body. Recent research has found that some people are more sensitive to salt than others and as a result, are at higher risk of developing high blood pressure. The Mayo Clinic estimates that 26 percent of Americans with normal blood pressure and 58 percent of those with high blood pressure are salt sensitive. Dramatically cutting down salt in your diet has been proven to lower blood pressure.

Living in Spain it can be difficult to work out how much salt you are consuming as the labelling is not always clear. ‘Sal’ means salt and the UK government recommends not more that 6g a day (about a teaspoon). Many food labels give quantities in ‘sodio’ (sodium) rather than ‘sal’. The technical term for salt is sodium chloride. Sodium makes up approximately 40% of salt. Multiply sodium by 2.5 to find out salt level. Even then, many food labels don’t specify how much sodio or sal is in the food.

‘Too much salt in your diet increases your blood pressure’ Reducing your salt intake doesn’t have to be difficult. For example, you could swap your normal tinned tuna for a ‘bajo en sal’ (low in salt) version which is sold in many of the big supermarkets. Alternatively, simply rinsing your tuna in water before adding to food can remove some of the salt content.

Doing the same with tinned vegetables, bottled pulses and olives can also help. It almost goes without saying that you will need to stop adding salt to cooking and at the table.

Instead of salt, flavour foods with garlic, chilli, ginger, and herbs. This might seem difficult at first but your tastebuds will

quickly adjust. Try to avoid foods which are naturally high in salt such as bacon, Spanish hams, cheese, and anchovies.

Replace salted nuts with unsalted varieties. Become aware of how much hidden salt is in foods by reading the food labels.

Foods to look out for in particular are breakfast cereals, bread products, stock cubes, soups, sauces like ketchup, mustard and soy sauce. When you start reading the food labels, you will see the huge differences in salt content say for different breakfast cereals and you’ll be surprised by how some simple swaps can reduce your overall daily salt intake.

We’ll be offering blood pressure checks and JoJo and Claudia will be on hand to give advice on exercise and nutrition. There will be a juice morning in the very near future so please call JoJo on 687 030 047 to book your place.

Before making any major changes to your lifestyle or if you have any major concerns, please check with your doctor first.
