Ramsay comes back into town GORDON RAMSAY is back on British television with a new series for Channel 4 entitled Ramsay’s Costa del Nightmares, set on the Costa del Sol. The series will take a look at different British restaurants in the area.

One of the restaurants to be featured in the series is ‘La Granada Divino,’ located in Gaucin.

La Granada Divino’s story is not Ramsay’s usual idea of a kitchen nightmare. The show based around the restaurant will focus on the challenges the owners faced when turning a derelict old building into a modern eatery.

Milan Varmuza one of the restaurant's investors, described how,

with the restaurant doing well, Ramsay turned up for filming for a week in June with a different focus: improving the relationship between investors and the staff.

Milan believes that both they and the restaurant have been portrayed in a reasonably good light by the show, although he is sure that there will be enough drama for Gordon Ramsay.

The episode featuring La Granada Divino is set to be broadcast on October 7.

Pantoja ordered to prison THE Provincial Court has upheld the sentences given to Isabel Pantoja and Maite Zaldívar, who must present themselves at the prison gates within 10 days.

In a case linked to the prosecution of her former lover and Marbella Mayor Julian Muñoz, Isabel Pantoja - together with the mayor’s ex-wife Maite Zaldívar and

four others - have had sentences originally served in April 2013 upheld.

Andalucian singing legend Pantoja was ordered to serve 24 months in prison and pay a fine of more than €1.1 million for crimes of money laundering.

Pantoja has 10 days to adhere to the court order. Failure to do so will

result in the courts issuing a warrant for her search and arrest.

Muñoz, the ex-mayor of Marbella, was sentenced to serve a total of seven years in prison after being found guilty of money laundering and bribery, as well as a fine of nearly €4 million. Both Pantoja and Zaldívar were viewed as accomplices to his crimes.

Winter fuel allowance debate

T

HE winter fuel allowance debate rages on amongst expatriate pensioners.

The news that last year the number of expats claiming the British allowance whilst living in Spain rose by 44 per cent will further inflame the debate.

Those who claim it see nothing wrong with doing so. After all they have paid in all their lives for their pension, so why should they miss out because they live abroad?

But this is a payment to help people keep warm in freezing weather more common in the UK, not those living in sunny Spain, goes the argument against.

Leaving aside the fact that many parts of Spain - and not all that far inland either - do get very chilly indeed in the winter, both arguments miss the point.

It is that NO winter fuel payment

should be made at all, whether here in Spain or back in the UK. Instead the British government should pay people a decent pension.

That would mean no one would need an extra payment.

To argue that one of the wealthiest countries in the world cannot afford it is disingenuous.

There are plenty of other things the government could cut back on.

Pensioners deserve better.

Missile step SPAIN is sending six missile launchers and 130 personnel to Turkey as part of a NATO deployment to discourage any thoughts of an ISIL Islamist invasion. While every little helps, it is going to take more than that.

The Costa’s best summer ever HOTELS along the Costa del Sol have had the best summer since tourism records began, according to the National Institute of Statistics (INE).

During the months of July and August, 4.9 million overnight stays were recorded in the hotels along the Costa. If the summer of 2013 was a recordbreaker, this year has seen further improvement with an increase of 2.2 per cent.

To the INE, the number of overnight stays is an important figure because the more nights a tourist stays the more they spend and the more money the area gets.

The record number of overnight stays

is what measures the success of the tourist season despite this year seeing 614,268 tourists registered on the Costa del Sol: a figure which is far from recordbreaking in itself.

Although satisfied with the figures, businesses in the tourist sector would do well not to rest on their laurels. With the tourists in the beds, hotels still need to consolidate the spending.

Whilst prices remain more or less at the level they were in 2008, utility bills have shot up. A typical hotel will have seen a 70 per cent increase in its energy bills in the last four years.

All too often hotels lose money during the winter months and spend the summer desperately trying to make a profit.

Midwives complain about lack of staff THE nursing union Satse has reported a lack of staff in the Maternity Unit at Malaga’s Hospital Materno Infantil.

They complain that there are only four midwives to attend the 13 birthing suites; in the high-risk ward there is one obstetrician for 32 beds; and the third floor, for imminent births, has been closed since early summer, meaning these women are sent to floors for mothers and new babies instead.

According to Satse, this is because replacements are not found for people who retire or are on sick leave. They also complain that a memo informed them that in the case of the high-risk ward being full, women should be placed on the fourth and fifth floors and have to go down to the emergency ward in the basement to be examined by the midwife there, “which is a risk for the pregnant woman and her baby.”

The syndicate said at a meeting yesterday that it had agreed to demand that the heads of the Gynaecological and Obstetrical Unit

MIDWIVES: Only four to attend the 13 birthing suites. and the Maternal Nursing Unit give up their posts as they have reportedly ignored all verbal and written complaints from the professionals who work there.

The Health Board meanwhile states that treatment has not been affected and there has been no change in the way women are looked after. “A high level of care is still offered, all pregnant ladies have been assisted by

the midwives,” declared a spokesperson, mentioning that although the number of births at the hospital has dropped from 6,942 in 2003 to 4,834 in 2013, the ratio of midwives to births had not changed.

She also said that at this time there was an 80 per cent occupation rate on the three floors of the hospital dedicated to childbirth, and these floors were adequately staffed.

BRING IT ON! EWN team get ready for a soaking.

Splashing good fun IT was splashing good fun and all in a good cause as members of the Euro Weekly News (EWN) team

joined in a ‘Get Wet with the Firemen’ day.

Inspired by the social media phenomenon Ice Bucket Challenge, Jill Leonard of Facebook site Fire and Weather Watch decided to organise an event with her friends from the local fire services.

The idea was simple; for a small donation, stand in the open and get hosed down by the firefighters at Mijas Hipodromo (horse racing course).

Jill said: “I got the idea from the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, but thought we could do it to help the local firemen’s charities. We owe the ‘bomberos’ so much for the work they do, and especially with the tragedy

of the helicopter pilot who was killed fighting a fire.”

So Jill got in touch with Mijas Town Council, as well as the local fire services, to organise the event.

“The town hall and the Hipodromo have been fantastic in the help they have given, and I cannot thank them enough.”

First up at the event, held on Sunday were Ian McElroy and six-year-old Ana Malenar. The two got wet together before firefighter Javier called Ana over to hold the hose and give Ian an extra dousing!

Ian said: “I saw the idea on Facebook and thought why not have a go? It’s all good fun and the charities deserve it.”

Also getting a soaking was a team from EWN as well as passers-by who decided to join in the action. Lisa Howard, who took the challenge with husband Adrian, said: “I have not been in Spain long, but one of the first things that happened was a fire at El Faro (Mijas Costa).

That was very scary and the firefighters did a tremendous job. It is only a small thing, but this way we could give a little back.”

Donations on the day amounted to €600, and €300 was raised from the firefighters’ stall.

Charities to benefit are Bomberos sin fronteras, Bomberos en Accion, Caritas and ALS.

Ana, 6, gets the chance to hose down Ian.

Employment budget for Malaga measures from the Junta.

This plan aims to achieve around 4,200 new contracts in the province.

In Andalucía, a total of 765 town halls (99.2 per cent) are included with a

budget of 40 million euros, which will generate approximately 25,000 contracts.

José Luis Ruiz Espejo, delegate of Andalucian government in Malaga,

informs that they are working to increase employment while concentrating on increasing employability, especially in families with risk of social exclusion.

He points out that 171 million euros have been spent this year on a number of different projects to aid employment, such as employment for young people, over 30’s or the

Impulse Programme for sustainable construction.

The delegate of Equality, Health and Social Policies, Daniel Pérez, agrees that “the Andalucian government is convinced that employment is the best weapon to achieve dignity and well-being for individuals and families.”

The new programme offers extra help for local companies who employ unemployed people for

between 15 days and three months to carry out work to benefit the community.

This programme has a total fund of 40 million euros.

Families with all unemployed members, large families with young children, disabled people, single-parent families and victims of domestic violence with children will have priority.

She has also been fined €2,160 to be paid at a rate of €6 per day.

The sentence, pronounced by the same judge who shelved the original case in August, was reduced by a third after the accused admitted to her crimes.

The young woman was found guilty on five counts of perverting the course of justice, although her

sentence was suspended for two years due to the fact that she has no previous convictions.

The prosecution decided not to ask for compensation for the emotional damage inflicted on the five men, who also declined to press for compensation from the young woman who is reported to be financially unstable.

Last Thursday, the young woman admitted her crimes to the judge. It is believed she invented her story for fear that a video of the sexual activities would be shown on the internet.

Second driest year in history WITH only 182.9 litres of water per square metre, this may be the second driest year in Malaga’s history.

Known as ‘discharge year’ or ‘flow year’, the term is used in hydrology to refer to any 12-month period for which precipitation totals are measured. The driest flow year in Malaga was registered between 1994 and 1995 with only 140.3 litres per square metre.

The data, recently released by the State Meteorology Agency (Aemet), correspond to the current flow year which started in October 2013 and even though it could start raining in Malaga Province in the next few days, the truth is that rainfall levels are unlikely to reach the historic average estimated at 550.3 litres per square metre.

The wettest year on record in Malaga Province (1968– 1969) saw 1,112.5 litres per square metre, ten times higher than rainfall levels in 2013-2014, said Aemet.

All singing and dancing TORREMOLINOS is warming itself up for next weekend’s Feria de San Miguel by celebrating the traditional ‘romeria’ in honour of the saint.

Last Sunday saw thousands of people getting into the party mood by converging on the town centre in a celebration in honour of the Torremolinos’s patron saint, San Miguel.

The Spanish word ‘romeria’ can be roughly translated into English as

‘pilgrimage,’ and typically sees the occupants of a town or village travelling either on foot, horseback or by horse and cart, into the countryside to visit the shrine of the Virgin Mary.

The romeria of Torremolinos is one of the country’s most popular because of the curiously ‘urban’ feel that it brings to the festivities.

More than 70 decorated wagons took part in last Sunday’s romeria, which left from the Los Palacios urbanisation at around 10am and ended up in the Los Manantiales forest. The pilgrimage is intended to inaugurate the festivities centred around Torremolinos’s patron saint, which will start next Friday and finish on Monday September 29, the day of San Miguel.

Associations and organisations, as well as groups of friends and neighbours, took part in

TAXI DRIVERS: Threaten to strike unless the Junta makes good.

NEWS

Taxi drivers in plan to strike TAXI DRIVERS in Malaga are threatening to strike if the Junta de Andalucia

(regional government) does not put into action by September 29 promises

made to the drivers last February.

The strike would above all cause chaos at Malaga Airport, and is a situation the local government would wish to avoid, remembering the problems that a week of strikes caused back in February.

The drivers are tired of waiting for the Junta to act on the promises that brought an end to the action in February, and have said the council has until September 29 to present a viable plan to implement change.

The argument centres around the taxi drivers’ desire to be able to take on pre-booked clients who wish to travel from Malaga’s surrounding towns and villages to the port, train station or airport.

At the moment, only some taxi drivers from outside the city limits have the right to offer this service, and it is an aspect of transport legislation that the taxi drivers of Malaga want changing.

The Junta made promises to modify this legislation seven months ago, but has still to be seen to do anything. Drivers will meet at the end of the month to discuss how they will proceed, but it seems a strike is likely if the Junta remains unresponsive.

The drivers will also want to see a resolution of the conflict between the City of Malaga’s taxi drivers and those in the province regarding the regulation and control of licensed taxis.

Ronda murder suicide mystery THERE were shocking scenes at a house in Ronda as police officers discovered a pensioner who allegedly shot his wife’s nurse before turning the gun on himself.

Police officers who entered the residence found a frail, bedridden woman suffering from Alzheimer’s in the same room as the two bodies.

The young woman was found dead with a gunshot wound to her back, whilst the man had a wound

to his chest.

Police investigators believe that the man committed suicide after first having killed his wife’s carer.

It is reported that at around midday Antonio Troyano Montero, aged 76, asked a neighbour, who was employed by the couple to carry out household tasks, to leave the premises and go for a walk.

With the help of the couple’s daughter, they entered the house where they found Troyano dead with a gunshot wound to the chest. Next to him was the body of his wife’s carer, 29-year-old Lala Mohamed Ahmed Salem, with a gunshot wound to the back. Francisca Gonzalez was found alive in her bed, and later taken to hospital.

When police officers arrived at the scene they quickly located the murder weapon, a shotgun used

by Troyano for hunting.

Police are working on the theory that a murder-suicide took place, although the motive behind the incident remains unknown.

DOG PARK: Neighbours complain about the noise.

The San Miguel dog park could end up relocating

THE San Miguel dog park could end up relocating due to complaints from local residents.

Malaga Council invested €100,000 to build the dog park on a 2,800-square metre plot located close to the old cemetery in Fuente Olletas.

Inaugurated almost a year and a half ago, the park is open from 8am until 10pm during the summer and until 9pm during the winter. However, not everyone is happy with

how things have turned out.

“Some neighbours have complained about the dogs. They want the dog park to be relocated because they say the dogs make too much noise. They talked to the mayor a few days ago when he paid a visit to the park,” said dogowner Araceli Caracuel talking to La Opinion de Malaga.

Malaga schools face shortage of teachers NOT every school in Malaga Province started the new school year with a complete teaching staff.

Data from a survey conducted in Malaga reveal that one in every four schools started the school year without a complete teaching staff.

Furthermore, figures show that four per cent of them need up to four teachers.

According to President of ANPE Maria Gracia del Amo, there are a number of reasons behind the reported shortage of teachers, including sick leaves which were not notified until September 1, retirements, maternity leaves, or simply higher demand.

In an effort to diminish the effects the shortage of teachers could have on some schools, the Junta has started to hire substitute teachers, and some of them for more than 10 days, which is the limit set by current regulations, said Del Amo.

Caracuel disputes that dogs are barking all day long and said the park is only full after sundown.

Peaceful coexistence seems to have taken a nasty turn, as pieces of meat with rusted nails inside have been found near the park and Lidia and Rocio Lopez, who own a mastiff, said someone tried to kick their dog.

“The council must give us an option, because they cannot shut down the dog park just like that.

“If it is true that the neighbours have gathered signatures, then they should present them,” said spokesman for the Association of Defence and Protection of Abandoned Animals Federico Madrigal.

Environment councillor Raul Jimenez confirmed the meeting between neighbours who oppose the dog park and the mayor.

“They complained about the park opening from 8am until 10pm and said they some-times cannot sleep and that children cannot study because of the dogs barking,” he said.

“It is true,” he said, “that neighbours proposed the park be relocated, but it is unlikely that this will happen as the park was expensive and it was not inaugurated that long ago.”

Woman in Malaga harassed by pro-life group A WOMAN in Malaga denounced a pro-life group for harassment.

For the past few days, some of the women arriving at Clinica Ginecologica Ginecenter on Calle Alemania in Malaga to have an abortion have been the target of harassment from a group of pro-lifers.

Ginecenter was approved by the Health Council of the Regional Government of Andalucia and it is a partner centre with the Andalucian Health Service for voluntary pregnancy termination since late 2010.

Some pro-lifers had already been denounced last week by Ginecenter Director Alberto Stolenzburg for harassing patients, but that does not seem to have deterred them.

On Friday, a woman arriving at the clinic was called a murderer and accused of killing her child.

The woman, who reportedly entered the clinic with a nervous breakdown, was allegedly forced to listen to similar insults on a mobile phone.

She later decided to lodge a formal complaint.

The daughter of a clinic employee was recently subjected to a similar harassment after being mistaken for a patient, said Diario Sur. “The police must do something about this right now to put an end to this outrage,” said Stolzenburg.

Plans for Marbella’s Incosol Hotel ONE of Marbella’s most iconic tourist structures may soon be torn down if plans for its redevelopment are approved by a judge.

Hotel Incosol has been closed for the last two years, but now a group of Belgian property developers have proposed knocking the building down and constructing a residential complex, complete with shopping centre.

An offer of €15.5 million was denied by the current owners on July 21, but as the building has been in the hands of creditors for the past two years, it will ultimately be up to a judge to decide whether or not to accept the bid.

Arrabal Investments, the Belgian group behind the bid has claimed to have government support. They say that the structure is in such a dilapidated condition that only complete demolition is a viable option.

The current owners have argued that the hotel is worth €59 million, much more than the price being asked, although an investment of nearly €40 million would have to be made to turn the building into a luxury health hotel as originally planned.

It remains to be seen which plan the judge will consider the best path to follow in the redevelopment of the site.

A 33-year-old man was stopped by the Guardia Civil after he failed to pull over at different three police checkpoints located in Carratraca and on the motorway between Campillos and Malaga.

The driver reportedly sped away from police at 200 kilometres an hour, dangerously overtaking other vehicles.

The Colmenar motorist would speed up when approaching the checkpoints and ignore the officers who waved him down, said the Guardia Civil.

The officers reportedly had to jump into a ditch or jump to the side to avoid being run over by the speeding vehicle, a dark grey BMW 330.

Audi has refused to comment on the cost of the event, although representatives have explained that Marbella was chosen for various reasons, including assured good weather and hotel availability. The Ascari racecourse facilities were another selling point, along with Malaga’s international airport and the Marbella countryside.

ETA member A taxing interest problem to serve 81 solved by Hola Credito years in jail Advertising Feature

Welcome to the weekly news from Hola Credito, Spain’s leading short-term lender. In our weekly column we look at different lending solutions that Hola Credito offers – this week – a quick loan saves interest on an old tax bill IT is bad enough having to pay tax bills, but when high interest charges are beginning to mount up on an old bill it is even more irritating. Last month Hola Credito’s low interest rates helped one client avoid heavy late payment penalties on an old bill.

“We had moved house, and several tax bills had not been forwarded to our new address. We were about to face some pretty hefty interest charges that we hadn’t budgeted for when my wife suggested we look at using some gold we had in the bank as security for a loan with Hola Credito.”

Hola Credito offers loans on all items of 22ct, 18ct, 14ct and 9ct yellow, rose and white gold. It uses the weight and carat of the items, and generally offers a higher loan value than other lenders. It also loans against gold sovereigns. Being a mainly online operation, with low

overheads it is able to offer the lowest interest rates and highest gold exchange rates. There are also no arrangement fees or other charges involved.

The client emailed Hola Credito who was able to agree the loan within 30 minutes. A day later, having deposited the gold with Puerto Banus-based Hola Credito the funds were transferred and the tax bill paid off.

“Hola Credito was really efficient, and its interest rate was far lower than the interest would have been on the tax bill, had I not paid it in time. I also only paid interest on the days I had the loan because it calculates interest on a daily basis.”

Hola Credito (www.holacredito.com) operates throughout Spain, and accepts a range of personal assets as security for loans, including yachts, jewellery, precious stones, watches and luxury cars.

There they saw that a window had been forced open by the burglar to gain entrance to the building.

Taking steps to help charity THOUSANDS will gather in Marbella to walk routes of 20 or 30 kilometres during four days. The fourth edition of Marbella 4Days Walking (M4Dw) will take place on October, 9, 10, 11

and 12. On the Saturday and Sunday there are special routes of six kilometres for children aged between six and 12.

Las Terrazas del Puerto Deportivo, in the centre of

Marbella, is the start and finish point for all the routes.

The walkers will leave between 8.30am and 9.30am for a route of 20 or 30 kilometres, which will

lead them through different parts of the city and surrounding countryside.

Apart from being a sporting and festive event, M4Dw also wants to contribute to local charities.

Participants can choose to donate to Triple A (abandoned animals), Menudos Corazones (children with heart diseases) or Arboretum Marbella (environment and

nature) when signing up.

For every donation of €10, the organisation adds another €2 for the chosen charity.

The charities will also be present during the event so the public can get to know their work.

The director of Arboretum Marbella will do something special this year; he will walk the 30kilometre routes dressed as

a tree. His goal is to raise money to build the Domo Confianza, a place to meet for events and courses, in the park the NGO takes care of. People can sponsor his steps, 150,000 of them will raise the €30,000 needed.

Children that participate in Marbella 2Days Walking Kids will receive a small backpack with the logo of Menudos Corazones.

Disabled teen unable to get to local school A HANDICAPPED teenage girl in Mijas has missed her first week back at school because she has no means of transport to get there.

Vanessa, 14, from La Cala de Mijas suffers from mobility problems connected with cerebral

The proceedings will be used to buy school books for pre-schoolers of needy Estepona families, to pay the gas and water bills of the Comedor Social de Estepona for six months starting in October, and the remainder will be given to Fundacion Rotaria.

The tournament is scheduled to be held at Villa Padierna Golf Club Alferini. The awards ceremony will take place at around 4pm at Golf Club Flamingo.

Vanessa’s father, Joao Luis, went to the school during the first week of September to try to find a solution to the problem.

He said: “My car broke down in July and I don’t have the money to fix it or buy a new one. Nor can I afford to pay for two taxis a day at €10 a time.”

Joao Luis says that the school sent him to see social services at Mijas Town Hall, who advised him to speak to the school again.

Lourdes Burgos, councillor for Education in Mijas Town Hall, has said that once the school has passed on the appropriate information to social services, the matter will be taken up at the town hall.

It seems that Vanessa may have to wait until Spain’s complicated bureaucracy sorts itself out.

Mother guilty of killing two newborns A WOMAN from Sevilla accused of killing and freezing her two newborn babies has been found guilty.

The jury of five men and four women arrived at the conclusion that the defendant had deliberately taken the lives of her children. The Public Prosecutor’s Office is asking for a 40year sentence for murder with malice aforethought.

To reach their verdict, the jury took into consideration the testimony of the forensic coroners who performed the post-mortem examination on the two infants. Their report stated that the victims had breathed once outside the womb and were later drowned. There was a 99 per cent certainty that the babies had died a violent death as a result of submersion, they said.

“The first baby’s stomach was dilated and had an aqueous content that had been swallowed,” said the experts.

However, a state’s evidence witness, expert in forensic medicine, said: “I am certain, 100 per cent certain, that there was no drowning.”

The defendant, identified as Sara L.H., maintained during the trial that the first baby had been stillborn and that she had no recollection whatsoever of the second birth.

During his closing argument, the public prosecutor said the mother was “a monster” and “an evil person,” capable of “looking her babies in the eye and of killing them.”

The verdict was also based on the testimony of two psychiatrists from the Institute of Legal Medicine in Sevilla who examined the defendant after her arrest in 2012. According to them, it was 100 per cent certain that she had been in full possession of her mental faculties and had deliberately killed her children, fully aware of what was going on.

Nowhere in the verses you pointed out did it mention anything about allowing men to badly treat women, rather, it talks about structure and respect. If men, in the past, or even at present, have taken scripture out of context and made them to please their own desires, it cannot be blamed on the Bible or Christianity, but it can only be put down to men’s machismo. In the times of Jesus, there was a social difference between men and women.

Women where even looked down on yes.

But is this down to the Bible (believing that it is the Word of God and not of man) or down to man changing teachings for their own purposes? Check Galatians 3:28.

“Along came a man, for many, not just any man but the One the Bible calls the Son of God, Jesus Christ. He was a revolutionary; He did things differently and out of the box. In a society where it was seen wrong to do certain things, Jesus, being a rabbi, spoke to prostitutes, spoke with women that weren’t Jews, He ate with women and had same level conversations with both men and women.

Jesus broke with the structures that men had established, and through this He was looked down on by the Pharisees, the religious leaders of the time.

“Can you really say that God does not love women? Jesus Christ, Son of God, God Himself, brought back equality between men and women. He died on the cross both for men and women for their redemption of sin (as the Bible teaches). I have not yet come to know any greater love than this.” Natali Trujillo (location not known) Rec: September 19, 2014 Keep up-to-date with the No Means No campaign at www.euroweeklynews.com/ no_means_no and see the full Mijas International TV interview www.youtube.com/euro weeklynews.com

Mother to sue over death

THE mother of the baby girl who died at Alicante airport is taking legal action.

The woman, from America, was at the luggage carousel waiting when she placed her five-month-old daughter in a car seat and put it on a stationary conveyor belt. The weight of the seat caused the carousel to move and the infant fell and was caught between a gap in the two moving belts and she died from her injuries. Airport staff said the accident, which happened in September 2013, occurred within a matter of seconds and the mother rushed to save the child.

According to a US newspaper, the family are suing the Dutch company which supplies luggage-handling systems to airports seeking damages for wrongful death, negligence, design defects and a failure to warn.

Following an official enquiry at the time the Government had said that the conveyor belt had functioned correctly and the accident was the responsibility of the person in charge.

Very happy with my career change: Interview with an English teacher SAM is a UK national who grew up in Spain and currently lives in Malaga Province. For many years, he worked in hotels and real estate, but at the age of 35 decided to follow a different career path and received the Trinity College Cert TESOL certificate with TEFL in Spain in February 2014. We interviewed him to find out how it went: What are you doing now that you’ve finished the course?

Well, now I work for a company that provides English lessons to Spanish civil servants. I am really enjoying the job! It’s a pretty friendly atmosphere. The hours are quite good; I start at 3pm on Monday and finish at 3pm on Friday, so I have a nice long

weekend! I am really happy with my career change, to finally be teaching and have a job so soon after completing the course.

How has the course helped you in your job?

It’s given me a qualification that [I can] add to my CV. In my particular case, I attempted a university course many years

ago but I didn’t have the time or money to return. The course at TEFL in Spain has enabled me to get back into teaching at a very practical level. I think the most helpful skills were the teaching and classroom management skills that Jackie [the course director] emphasised.

Would you recommend this course to others?

Yes, of course!

What advice would you give to those thinking about taking a course?

I strongly suggest that they set the correct amount of time for the pre-course tasks, which are very important. You have to be committed, as the course is intense. I can’t stress that enough.

QUALIFIED: Sam can now teach English as a foreign language.

TEFL in Spain is an English teacher training academy that offers 4-week Trinity TESOL courses located in Malaga. They are currently promoting an online introduction course for

those interested in getting started! For certified teachers, they also have online teacher development classes. For the full interview, visit: www.tefl-inspain.com

Maggie’s sign is defaced MARGARET THATCHER’S brand new sign in a Madrid Plaza has already been defaced.

‘Don’t buy the Sun’ and ‘Hillsborough Justice Campaign’ stickers were stuck over the face of the sign indicating the location of Plaza Margaret Thatcher.

The stickers seem to be a direct reference to British newspaper The Sun’s support of Margaret Thatcher in the 1980s, as well as the paper’s publicly criticised coverage of the Hillsborough disaster.

Honouring Margaret Thatcher in Madrid with her very own plaza raised some eyebrows, especially in the socialist party, but Ana Botella, PP mayor of Madrid, said the plaza highlighted the importance of one of the century’s most extraordinary figures, and wasn’t politically motivated.

Beggars that make town look rundown I HAVE been in Torre del Mar since February. In that time there have always been 12 or more beggars about, mostly along a small section of the N340 main road, while others are outside supermarkets.

Most are long-stay, some come and go. Of the long-stay, the majority seem to be fairly young and Spanish and they are out six or seven days a week, so obviously they are not looking for work.

Many are quite well-dressed and some have the inevitable dog with them. One with a foldup chair that he brings with him settles down with a book and waits for the money to roll in.

A man in a wheelchair has appeared recently but at times he moves his legs about (cramp, I suppose) and no cripple can move like that.

I have seen a few deserving cases looking as though they have slept rough, but they are there for a few days and go. The rest just seem to be deadbeats who don’t want to work. Can’t the police do something about them, as these beggars make the town look rundown?

Highway code RECENTLY I read in the Euro Weekly News that the Manual de normas de Trafico 3 was available at all bookshops for €12.

Bookshops in Garrucha knew nothing of it and sent me to driving schools, who said such a book at such a price does not exist!

There are driving manuals for learners but apparently no single publication which comprehensively covers all the rules of the road.

Unfortunately I cannot remember who wrote the original article so can anybody tell me if this book actually exists and how I might obtain a copy?

I, too, have a Type One diabetic child in school in San Fulgencio and it would not be possible for her to attend school if I did not test her blood myself mid-morning and then return at lunch time to inject her with insulin.

I am also on call throughout the day whilst at work to deal with any additional requirements. I feel the whole process has been made very difficult and

Rights or wrongs I DO not agree with the comments of Antonie Holtzhausen. I think the actions of the parents were foolhardy, ill thought-out and posed a risk to Ashya.

The consultant at Southampton Hospital had offered the family a second opinion and access to treatment abroad.

The boy’s scans and notes could have been emailed to Prague and an opinion sought as to the suitability of proton treatment while Ashya was cared for in hospital.

Instead his father chose to take the family on a long trek to sell his Spanish apartment to raise funds. In the current climate this could have taken months.

What could have happened to Ashya and the other children in the meantime? This sale could have been arranged from the UK, or the father could have gone to Spain on his own.

It all went horribly wrong and the UK police had no choice but to take the action they did.

No doubt there will be interviews on morning TV, articles and books etc. I hope the proceeds are given to children’s cancer charities.

The most important thing is

that Ashya gets the correct treatment, but in my opinion there were better ways of achieving this.

Lock it away I WAS interested in a Euro Weekly News article describing the intention to introduce parking charges and fines to Torre Del Mar and Velez-Malaga.

It seems to me that these measures will restrict tourism rather than encourage it, but will presumably provide a ready revenue stream.

Will tourists favour destinations without parking charges and will this affect cafes and shop keepers, for instance?

Far better in my view for councils to make money by providing an improved beach experience.

I had the notion of ‘beach lockers’ and looking on Google found that Bournemouth has been offering beach lockers in the UK since 2006.

These provide space for visitors to store valuables whilst they enjoy the beach for £3 per day. A small price to pay to keep your smart phone and wallet safe!

I calculate that these would provide roughly €1 million per year, if introduced in the Costal del Sol alone.

Neil Smith, Cutar (Malaga)

Health proposal WITH large urbanisations near Punta Prima and the Torrevieja hospital and an aging population, a second health centre will soon be needed.

At the back of the hospital there is another car park that is underused. Would this not be the ideal place for another centre as the Health department must already own the land?

Savings could be made using modern materials such as plastic-faced polystyrene panels in place of wood, which would be more hygienic.

The downside would be the salaries of doctors, nurses and staff.

Buying a holiday home to beat rise in hotel prices THIS summer has seen Brits heading abroad in their droves to take advantage of cheap sunshine breaks in the Costas.

But it seems that Spain isn’t the cheap holiday destination that once it was, with recent data from the National Statistics

Institute revealing that the price of hotels in the Iberian country has risen by 22.6 per cent so far this year.

Additional figures from the Consumer Price Index showed that the month of July alone saw an 8.3 per cent increase in the price of hotels and other accommodation.

To beat the hotel price rises, an increasing number of clued up holidaymakers indicating that a recovery are turning to investment could yet be another year in a second home in Spain away. as an alternative means of The Fitch report comes enjoying the Costas at their at the same time as a best.

Clear signs of Spanish property recovery THE days of bargainpriced Spanish properties and freefalling prices are coming to an end according to a major

ratings agency. There are ‘clear signs’ that the Spanish property market has bottomed-out and that falling house prices will soon be a thing of the past.

A report from the Fitch Ratings service says that the signs of Spain’s recovery are down to a return of mortgage credit and increased activity from financial institutions.

Half-finished developments and empty apartment blocks that are a

current feature of modern-day Spain could become a thing of the past according to the Fitch report.

But the report also acknowledges that there is a long way to go before Spain returns to any sort of pre-crisis stability. High unemployment and a surplus of properties means that prices will not rise too quickly. Fitch says that prices may only rise in ‘single digits’ over the next few quarters,

Worst is over for Government data show that real-estate sector house prices continue to fall THE worst is over for Spain’s real-estate and construction sector, said the Minister for Economy and Competitiveness.

The construction sector will continue to make a positive contribution to the country’s gross domestic product, said Minister Luis de Guindos during a government meeting.

Economic growth and job creation are the best housing policies there are, said Guindos and added that the Ministry of Development is executing a State Housing Restoration Plan with an investment of €2.3 billion.

While acknowledging that Spain has an oversized residential sector, Minister Guindos said the construction sector has largely adjusted and that it positively contributed during the second quarter of the year to the country’s GDP for the first time since the outbreak of the crisis.

He added that housing prices are increasing and that credit flow is on the rise.

CONSTRUCTION SECTOR: Will continue to positively contribute to Spain’s GDP.

HOUSE prices fell in the second quarter of 2014.

Statistics released by the Ministry of Development show that home values dropped by 2.9 per cent between April and July and currently stand at €1,459.3 per square metre.

This is the lowest reduction registered in the last six years.

Data show that the average value per square metre is a mere 10 cents cheaper now than during the first quarter of 2014, when it stood at €1,459.4.

Therefore, and according to the Ministry of Development, the price of private properties accumulated an adjustment of 30.6 per cent since prices peaked at the beginning of 2008, when the crisis had just broken out.

HOUSE VALUES: The average value per sqm only 10c cheaper now than 2014.

The average square metre price of new properties stood at €1,523.5, which represents a variation of 2.8 per cent compared to 2013. In contrast, secondhand properties saw a 2.9 per cent decline which decreased square metre prices to €1,436.7.

Compared to last year, the sharpest declines were registered in Extremadura (-6.7 per cent), Navarra (-6.2 per cent), Castilla y Leon (6.0 per cent), Cantabria (-5.8 per cent), Murcia (5.8 per cent) and Castilla La Mancha (-5.4 per cent), whilst the

most substantial increases and the slightest decreases were witnessed in the Balearic Islands (+3.6 per cent), Madrid (-0.9 per cent), Ceuta and Melilla (-1.8 per cent), the Canary Islands (-1.8 per cent) and Valencia (-1.9 per cent).

Property sales up in July putting an end to years of decline PROPERTY sales in Spain increased by 10.7 per cent in July.

Provisional data released by the National Statistics Institute show that compared to last year the number of property sales rose by 10.7 per cent in July, totalling 28,583 transactions.

This rise puts an end to 10 consecutive months of yearon-year declines and is actually the fifth consecutive increase after those registered between March and June.

On the other hand, this growth can be traced back to the 24.7 per cent increase in the purchase of second-hand properties, which totalled 18,082 transactions.

According to Europa Press, 90 per cent of property purchases were for private homes.

PROPERTY SALES: Andalucia continues to be at the forefront, followed by Valencia and Catalonia.

In fact, sales of private housing increased by 9.2 per cent compared to 2013, finally

totalling 25,720 transactions.

In contrast, transactions on social housing rose by 25.8 per

cent compared to July 2013 and reached 2,863 operations.

In July, the largest numbers

of property sales per 100,000 people were recorded in Valencia (107), the Canary Islands (92) and La Rioja (91).

Andalucia continued to be at the forefront of property sales in July with 5,954 transactions, followed by Valencia (4,231) and Catalonia (4,230).

In relative terms, the regions with the largest increase in property sales compared to 2013 were Asturias (+47.1 per cent), Extremadura (+43.9 per cent) and Galicia (+24.2 per cent), whilst the most substantial decreases were recorded in La Rioja (-12.1 per cent) and Murcia (-11.8 per cent).

SPAIN: It has long been the preferred retirement destination for many Europeans.

Spain well on the way to recovery

THOUGH Spain was severely affected by the 2008 crash and its realestate market took a serious blow, the country appears to be getting back to its feet.

According to data from the Royal Institute of Chartered Accountants (RICS), foreign property investors are showing renewed interest in the country that has long been the preferred retirement

and holiday destination of hundreds of thousands of Germans, Brits and French and Dutch nationals.

There is now evidence of an improvement in the realestate markets of an evergrowing number of European countries, said RICS’ chief economist Simon Rubinsohn. “Our latest test results also show evidence of an upswing in occupier demand which is ultimately key to a sustain-

able recovery across the continent.

The results for Spain, Portugal and Ireland are particularly encouraging and broadly consistent with the strengthening macro newsflow these countries have delivered in recent quarters,” said Rubinsohn.

No other crisis-affected country in Europe is witnessing such a fast increase in property demand than Spain.

STAT OF WEEK DEFAULT by families and businesses on July’s credit card payments and loans dropped by 30.5 per cent year-on-year to €278 million. Arrears have now fallen for 25 consecutive months.

The taxman lurks in the stands SPAIN’S football clubs allegedly owe more tax than they admit.

Instead of the €482 million that the Liga Profesional de Futbol (LPF) acknowledged at the end of last season, clubs owed €564 million, maintained Spain’s tax collecting authority.

Neither did they cut their tax debt by €165 million as the LPF claimed,

Hacienda continued. Last season’s true figure stands at just €99 million and represents a 15 per cent reduction instead of the claimed 25 per cent, Hacienda argued.

Possibly hoping to underline the clubs’ subsequent efforts, the LPF gave inexact figures for the preceding season, the tax authority continued.

Determined to obtain its dues,

Orange bid for Jazztel ORANGE has offered €3.4 billion for Spain’s Jazztel.

The CNMV, Spain’s stock market regulator, suspended trading in Jazztel shares when their value shot up by 12 per cent, hours before the deal was announced.

It intends to investigate possible insider trading, the supervisor announced later. Acquiring Jazztel would give Orange approximately 1.5 million broadband subscribers and follows Vodafone’s takeover of Spanish cable provider ONO last July.

“With the economy recovering, this is the moment to reinforce our presence,” said Orange CEO Stephane Richard.

At the receiving end of

the €13 per share offer are Jazztel’s shareholders and its chairman, Leopoldo Fernandez Pujals, a Spanish-Cuban who is now a US citizen and owns a 14.48 per cent stake in the company.

Pujals founded Telepizza in 1988 based on just one Madrid outlet and capital equivalent to €372,000.

By 1999 he was able to sell out for €360.6 million and buy into Jazztel, then on the brink of insolvency, using €60 million of the Telepizza sale.

If the current transaction goes through, he will now receive 14.48 per cent of the €3.4 billion that Orange is offering.

B

usiness extra

Well balanced MADRID City Hall’s €1.3 billion surplus last year outstripped all Spanish municipalities. Barcelona and Valencia were the next-best money managers with respective surpluses of €290 million and €119 million.

Bitter fruit PEACHES, nectarines and potatoes affected by Russia’s veto are retailing at up to10 times more than the prices they receive, complained growers in a call for tighter anti-speculation controls.

Changeover follows tradition DIMAS GIMENO ALVAREZ was named El Corte Ingles president following the death of his uncle, Isidoro Alvarez.

This is practically a family tradition, as Alvarez inherited the department stores from his own uncle, Ramon Areces. El Corte Ingles is one of Spain’s strongest brands and for the first time since 2007 the chain’s profits increased

last year, rising 6.2 per cent to €14.3 billion although turnover fell by 1.8 per cent. Economic analysts suggested that Gimeno will need to look for foreign growth.

“The stores need to reinvent their business model, expand their distribution changes,” Madridbased Ricardo Wehrhahn told Bloomberg. “They need to look abroad to grow in Latin America.”

Hacienda is scrutinising and impounding any relevant sums of money that the clubs obtain via gate-money, television rights and advertising deals.

Reductions in the clubs’ debts corresponds to Hacienda vigilance, administration sources claimed, not self-control on their part or that of the LPF.

FOOTBALL CLUBS: Owe more tax.

Spanish children in the money!

Loose change A look at finance for females

Jane Plunkett jane.plunkett@euroweeklynews.com

IT’S no news flash that the Spanish spoil their kids and a new survey has just confirmed it.

According to research, which looked at the average amount of pocket money children receive across Europe, it’s been revealed that kids in Spain are not left short. Spanish kids are the third-best paid youngsters in the EU (after Italy and France), with those aged between five to 15 receiving €5 to €10 a week.

Almost 50 per cent of parents in this country said that they don’t give their kids any pocket

money at all and that if their child needs something, then they simply discuss the purchase and buy it for their child if necessary. Therefore, almost half of young Spanish children don’t handle money.

The other 50 per cent of parents, however, who do give money to their children, said that their main reason for doing so is to ensure their kids learn to respect and value money. Almost 85 per cent of those parents studied also admitted that since giving pocket money to their children

Worried over medical bills?

Q. It was with great concern that I read a reader’s letter from a woman in You and the Carboneras, published in your August Law in Spain 28 edition. She apparently had to pay

By David Searl a large medical bill despite having all the documentation to entitle her to use the Spanish health system. Being a pensioner and not in good health, I am worried about my own position. Could you look into this further?

R.N.D. (Costa Blanca) A. If you are a UK pensioner, receiving the state old age pension, you have the right to NHS medical treatment in the UK. If you become an official resident of Spain, with the Certificate of Residency, you have the right to transfer your medical treatment to the Spanish healthcare system. You apply to the Spanish Social Security office in your autonomous region, such as Valencia or Andalucia. They will then issue you the Spanish Social Security card which entitles you to treatment and they will assign you to a local family doctor. Each of the regions administrates health care in its territory but your card is valid in all of Spain.

The process is not automatic. You must apply for it.

POCKET MONEY: Children learn to be responsible.

they have noticed that their kids have quickly learned how to be responsible with money, through the process of trial and error.

Many children who regularly receive pocket

money are also noted to save a significant portion of their allowance, which

is great practice and habit building for the future.

In general, if parents can afford it, giving kids regular pocket money is a great way to develop their independence and goal setting. For example if a child wants a new video game console, then they can learn how to save to buy it. A child will see that it takes time to build up savings and will hopefully develop a sense of responsibility regarding the concept of money.

It’s a good idea to provide two jars for children when you give them pocket money: one for spending and one for saving. This way they can choose how they distribute their pocket money between the jars.

This also gives you a chance to teach your kids about money and its use.

IT is inevitable that from time to time there will be disagreements with customers. The customer is not always right. Some do abuse the hypothesis that the customer is king.

However, most disagreements between service provider and customer are due to avoidable misunderstandings.

Customer conflict can be reduced to a minimum simply by explaining precisely what he is going to get for his financial outlay. Honesty is the best policy. Never give a delivery time you cannot meet.

The important thing is to explain, understand, get it in writing.

Often the fault lies with the customer.

In an effort to keep prices down, the client withholds information when asking for a price. The client dislikes the bill being added to but is happy to increase his expectations of what is to be done.

An example of this was when my wife, who translates menus to Russian, was

asked the fee for an a la carte menu translation. Such menus can be one page or multiple pages. When asked for an attached copy the client failed to respond.

One wonders how the eatery’s owner would react had a client sat down, dismissed the offer of a menu and asked: “How much for a three-course meal?”

Never price over the phone or internet. If the client is vague there is a catch. Far better to see beforehand precisely what needs doing and the time to complete.

Listen carefully to your customers wants. Understand and repeat them, reassure and take notes. Having put in writing a synopsis of the work to be carried out, and if possible a price breakdown, sign and leave it. When doing so explain the costs or stages at which second thoughts or exit can be met.

A no nonsense business approach from the outset will weed out time wasters. It will compensate by reassuring genuine enquirers that your business is professional in its approach.

It sounds tedious, but far more tedious is a disgruntled client who, apart from later challenging you, could likely destroy your business with gossip.

Still together thankfully, sounds like a pleasant song

LEAPY LEE SAYS IT ELIGHTED with the outcome of the Scottish referendum saga.

Of course, if you removed the natural English haters those who, were they born south of the border, would still hate the citizens of Rome, and also, despite his PR denials, southern despiser Andy Murray, plus the children, who went to the polls with no more incentive than the memory of Mel Gibson bellowing ‘freedom’ as he expired in Braveheart then I think you’d probably be looking at more of a 70/30 per cent result in favour of the no’s.

Together again. Sounds like the title to a song, and a very pleasant song at that. Thank the Lord I won’t have to boo the Scottish team when it makes the next World Cup, (unless you’re playing the English of course!).

www.euroweeklynews.com

Still, consider those of the Muslim fraternity who consider themselves above British authority and live under Sharia law, an utter disgrace. One of the biggest craw stickers to me is the four (plus one reserve) wives they are allowed under this illegal UK organisation.

Apparently there are some 20,000 of these ‘arrangements’ now existing. To be honest, I have always found one wife more than enough and frankly, to my mind, they can all get on with it. But it doesn’t end there does it? Because British law only allows a single spouse, they can only claim family allowance for one. So what do they do? Simple, they impregnate the other three and claim for them on the social as unmarried mothers.

It’s fraud, pure and simple.

Multiply that little touch by

“A

LIFETIME supply of love and happiness,” is what Laszlo Miklosi would like.

The owner of La Campana restaurant in Quesada said this would be more important to him than money or anything else materialistic as love and happiness mean everything.

Benidorm’s Ray Europa owner Ray joked he would like a lifetime supply of unlimited internet and TV so he can install to all his customers. The technology expert said: “Everyone lives by it now and people don’t compromise on their TV and internet. If you are in good health you don't need much else.”

The staying healthy theme struck

LASZLO: Would like love and happiness.

SCOTTISH REFERENDUM: Delighted with the outcome.

20,000 and it comes to some 80,000 claimants plus offspring, living off the British taxpayer (I didn’t include the husband in these figures, because I assume he goes out to work.) It’s all a National farce, but then, only one in an ever increasing line of

disgusting unfair practices thrust on to the beleaguered British public by incompetent gutless politicians intent on presenting the UK to foreigners on a plate of gold - our gold!

After all that down time I’ll finish on a high note (hurrah).

I found these in my favourite

What lifetime supply would you like?

What would you choose if you could have a lifetime supply of anything you wanted? Would you go for something to eat or drink, or something more cerebral? We went out to ask what some of our readers would choose if

news sheet last week. Here’s a couple of nonsense trivia facts to hopefully brighten your day.

Did you know that: All the chickens’ eggs produced in the world would make an omelette the size of Northern Ireland?

There are a billion dogs in the world (most of them in Spain!). The least common pin number is 8068? (not any more!). The Royal Navy blasts out Britney Spears ‘Oops I’ve done it again’ to scare off Somali pirates. And the most difficult tongue twister in English is ‘Pad kid poured curd pulled cod.’ Oh, and as a final gem, if you borrowed £400 from Wonga at its standard rate for seven years, you would owe more than Britain’s national debt!

Keep the faith.

Love Leapy.

different slant on what she would like a lifetime supply of. “I would like a completely unlimited supply of wine, any colour and any type! That combined with good weather would be perfect.”

And Geoff Jones of Computer Helpline also was looking for something edible, although a couple of wishes also made the list. “Thai curry: I’m not an extravagant person. Or I’d like to go to Hong-Kong one last time or I’d like to fly my light aircraft again.”

STREET TALK a chord with another of our clients. “The one thing I would really want is good health to last a long life. I would wish to grow old but healthily. I would also wish for better business, more prosperous and fulfilling said Karel Willemsens of Immo-Carlos in Arboleas, Almeria.

But Julie Eason of Westar Pools, Mijas, JULIE: Unlimited Malaga took a supply of wine.

RAY: Would like unlimited internet and TV supply.

KAREL: Good health for a long life.

OPINION

www.euroweeklynews.com

Is your child lazy or stupid? Science says no…

BY the time our daughter was nine she still couldn’t read. That was not as should be, as by age six she was working as hard as any university student. She studied all summer, every summer, to try to catch up.

We watched our precious little girl withdraw further into herself. We went from eye specialist to brain surgeon in search of a solution to an unknown problem. Her self-confidence was at an all time low and our nerves at a record high.

We first heard of ChromaGen lenses when my parents read in the Daily Mail about ‘Miracle Glasses.’ Desperate for any help we flew from Madrid to the manufacturing laboratory in the UK the very next day.

“Mummy, the words have stuck to the page,” she said when she reached her combination of lenses. “Where were they before?” I asked.

She jumped up and startled wriggling around. “Without the glasses the words move like this, like children in the playground. When I put them on it’s like the words have gone into the classroom, sitting down in neat rows.” Stupefied I asked her why she had never told us this before. Her answer was so simple it hurt “I

Viva Marbella...

With

Nicole King of Mi Marbella radio didn’t know they weren’t mean to.”

Of course, she had never seen anything else. To her it was normal.

At the age of six Ashley had said that her words moved and we took her to a local optician. She was prescribed with a graduation but she didn’t use the glasses.

An eye specialist told us she didn’t need a change of glasses but a change of attitude.

That night when I went to tuck her in I found her banging her head against the wall “I’m stupid” she said, over and over.

Years later she explained her desperation that night; she thought she was intelligent and couldn’t see well, but the ‘doctor’ had said she could see perfectly. Being clever, her conclusion was that she was crazy.

That was the day she gave up on herself.

You can imagine how as her mother I can never forgive myself for believing that

READING DIFFICULTIES: Have your child tested with ChromaGen lenses. optician over my daughter. That optician, too busy in his day to day to be up-to-date, I was so wrong to trust him.

If I had listened to her, believed her and kept searching for a solution, it wouldn’t have taken another three years to find ChromaGen, three years of such suffering for everyone.

This is why when challenged by Ashley to help other children who can’t read by

bringing ChromaGen to Spain we couldn’t refuse, but it’s only thanks to her that there are now over 100 opticians in Spain where children can be tested with ChromaGen lenses. Ashley couldn’t have done more to help save your children, but parents, it’s entirely up to you to do something about it.

Was it a visit from the far side?

A COUPLE from Cadiz out walking their dog in a nearby forest encountered something in the night-time sky that has caused some controversy.

A two-minute video appears to show what could be a UFO buzzing around the night sky.

Naturally those with a healthy dose of scepticism explain away the phenomenon as being tricks of light, drones and toy helicopters. The couple appear to be quite normal and dumbfounded by the experience; the wife suggests it was a satellite, only for her husband, Jose, to dismiss the idea. Perhaps the most compelling evidence of their eerie experience is the sound of their obviously distressed dog.

In the age of smartphone technology and HD cameras, this is merely the latest video of unexplained flying objects to appear over Spain. None, however, has matched the perplexity of the Manises UFO case in 1979, when for the

UFO: Numerous sightings over Spain have been recorded on video. first time in history a commercial flight was forced to make an emergency landing because of a UFO. Flight JK-297 from Salzburg to Las Palmas was forced to take evasive measures to avoid a fast-moving object with red lights, half a

kilometre away. As the airplane landed, three new UFO signals were detected by local radar, each one with an estimated diameter of 200 metres. A Mirage F-1 was scrambled to identify the inexplicable phenomenon. The pilot had to increase his speed

to mach 1.4 to gain visual contact with what he saw as a cone-shaped object displaying bright colours. When the pilot closed in on the object, it responded by accelerating and took off again. The pilot in hot pursuit mysteriously had his avionics scrambled. After a 90-

minute pursuit, fearing fuel loss, the pilot was forced to return to base.

Questions were asked about the incident in the Spanish Parliament; an official explanation dismissed the notion of UFO sightings, claiming the phenomenon was a freak optical illusion.

The official Air Force report was classified until 1994. The avionic difficulties experienced by the fighter were not mentioned in the official Air Force report.

The pilot denied suggestions that his equipment had been jammed by the US Navy sixth fleet stationed in the Mediterranean, claiming it was too far away and his instruments were only jammed when he attempted to track the UFO with an infrared homing missile.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23) With everyone busy round you, the chance may be taken to show what you are capable of. Instead of watching someone make a pig's ear of a work project, offer to help. It's important to let them think any bright ideas were theirs.

TOP 10 SCI-FI MOVIES SCIENCE FICTION has brought audiences worldwide some of history’s boldest and most glorious films. Although sometimes patronised as childrens’ stuff, this ground-breaking genre both incites the imagination and creates a sense of wonder with the universe. Here is a short list of some of the best sci-fi movies ever to grace the silver screen.

1. The Empire Strikes Back (1980) Voted the greatest movie of all time by the readers of Empire magazine, the first Star Wars sequel takes a fairly simplistic sci-fi formula and turns it into an enjoyable, emotionally absorbing and philosophically rich cinematic experience. This film strikes a perfect balance between sentiment, humour, spectacle and character. It has earned to date more than $538 million (€417 million) worldwide.

2. The Terminator (1984) This American science fiction film helped launch the career of James Cameron and solidified that of Arnold Schwarzenegger. The plot could hardly be more mindboggling: a relentless killer robot in synthetic skin is sent back in time to kill the mother of the future saviour of mankind before he is born. The Terminator spawned three sequels and a new movie is coming out next year.

Finding out the truth BOOKS PUBLISHED in August 2014, Daughter is Jane Shemilt’s eerie debut novel. A teenage girl goes missing and her mother realises she does not know her daughter as well as she thought.

As the police begin investigating the mysterious disappearance of Naomi, the teen’s family must come to accept what

has happened to them and come to terms with what it reveals about each and every one of them. Is finding the truth about Naomi the only way to put the Malcom family back together or will it inevitably tear them apart?

Jane Shemilt completed a post graduate diploma in Creative Writing at Bristol and went on to

almost immediate success in Europe, American audiences were reluctant to fully embrace it at first, but it has since become a cult film. Director Terry Gillian has also been at the helm of other commercial successes, including 12 Monkeys and The Adventures of Baron Munchhausen.

3. Metropolis (1927) Directed by German-Austrian filmmaker Fritz Lang, Metropolis is considered to be a pioneering film in the genre and even though some critics at the time called it simplistic and naïve, it has since become classic with an ever-growing cult following. Truth be told it is a masterpiece that set the standard for megacities, robots and dystopian nightmares.

4. Brazil (1985) Set in a dystopian world, this British masterpiece is arguably one of the best satires on bureaucratic society ever to be put on film. Even though it was an

of the best visual punches in movie history and the unforgettable soundtrack by John Williams has become ingrained in pop culture around the world.

8. Blade Runner (1982) Blade Runner had mixed reviews when it first came out. Some critics did not like its pacing, while others praised its complexity and it performed poorly in the US after its release. However it has become a cult film. This dystopian science fiction film offers a cyberpunk vision of a future in which mankind has developed the technology to create human clones.

Trivia: the first cut of Ridley Scott ran four hours.

5. Star Wars (1977) Few would dispute that this masterpiece redefined the genre and an entire industry. At the time, its special effects were ground-breaking and it set the standard of science fiction for years to come.

It launched the career of Harrison Ford, who became a megastar overnight and gave us one of the most iconic villains of all time. It received 10 Academy Award nominations and has made more than $775 million worldwide (€602 million).

Trivia: One of the alien eggs used in the movie is exhibited at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington.

7. Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) The aliens in this 1977 American film are a breath of fresh air, considering the fact they are not out to take over the world and disintegrate everyone with their laser guns. The glorious sight of the mothership over the mountain is arguably one

9. 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) Hailed by many as Stanley Kubrick’s magnum opus, 2001: A Space Odyssey is the movie that put the science in science fiction and a case could be made that its glorious depiction of space travel and the future of mankind remains unrivalled. Its greatest strength is in the details and Kubrick gives the viewer a lot of food for thought about what it means to be a human being.

10. E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982) It may come as a surprise to fans of the genre that the concept of this successful 1980’s film is based on an imaginary friend director Steven Spielberg created following his parents’ divorce in the 60’s. E.T. surpassed Star Wars and became the highest-grossing film of all time until 1993, when Jurassic Park surpassed it.

This timeless story of friendship has made more than $792 million (€615 million).

E.T.: Based on an imaginary friend.

Don’t let cats socialise at feeding time CATS all feeding from a row of food bowls look cute and you will find many of these photos on the web. Cute they may be. But they are stressful for cats, even cats that get on with each other.

Cats go hunting on their own and they eat on their own. They don’t socialise over a meal like us. So keep those food bowls well apart.

Is your cat going bald? It could be fleas. Some cats are so allergic to a single flea bite that they pull or nibble their fur in this area. Cats also pull or nibble their fur if they have a painful area, if they are allergic to some forms of food, or if they are ill. Some cats even pull their fur out of stress. So take your cat to the vet and discuss the problem.

Choosing a pedigree kitten. Today’s pedigree cats are beginning to develop inherited diseases from too much inbreeding, just like diseases found in pedigree dogs.

It’s a complicated topic but worth looking into before you decide on one particular breed All the information you need can be found at International

Cat Care - www.icare.org. There are now genetic tests available for some disorders, and you may like to discuss these with cat breeders.

Helping feral cats. Many of us feel sorry for the feral cats that hang about towns and resort areas scrounging food from passers-by or out of dustbins.

Many of us therefore feed them. And once they are being properly fed, the cats are more likely to survive and produce more kittens.

‘My boyfriend’s handcuffed me to the bed and lost the key’ Nora Johnson

T

HE nursery worker who was signed off sick and subsequently caught on television starring in the opening ceremony of the recent Commonwealth Games in Scotland reminded me of a survey of bosses by a UK recruitment company.

It revealed some of the worst excuses given by employees for not turning up to work: ‘I need time to find myself’; ‘my garage door’s broken’; ‘I’m going to jail’; ‘my partner and I need to practise for the square-dancing

contest in town today.’ Or, my personal favourite: ‘my boyfriend’s handcuffed me to the bed and lost the key.’

Or take a recent study of 1,000 workers and 1,000 bosses commissioned by a mutual healthcare provider. ‘I’m in A&E and got a clothes peg stuck on my tongue’, ‘I’ve got a sore finger’ and ‘I’ve injured myself during sex’ are among those that made the list as did: ‘My dog has had a fright and I don’t want to leave him’ and ‘my trousers split on the way to work.’

As regards trouser-splitting, this actually happened to a colleague as he got out of the car in the company car park. Rr-r--i-i-p! Fortunately, five minutes in the gents with a stapler repaired them well enough to get him through the day, although he had to be

WORST EXCUSE: For not turning up to work. really careful sitting down...

According to the healthcare provider: ‘In a tough economy, managing sickness absence becomes vital for businesses.

But employers are clearly suspicious about days taken off for illness ... This is not helped

by the fact that for more than a fifth of the sick days taken, workers admitted they could have actually made it into work.

High levels of sickness absence can have a huge negative impact on businesses - both from a financial perspective and

on the effect it has on staff who bear the extra workload.”

Although many find this subject amusing, it’s actually a major cost to employers. The worst offenders, reportedly, are those in the public sector who take significantly more days off each year than those in the private sector - at massive cost to the taxpayer. Quite simply, if they took the same average number of days off sick as those in the private sector, it’s estimated it would save around £2.5 billion (€3.18 billion) in the UK every year.

September rains will make gardens greener

Dick Handscombe

Gardening Corner

By Spain’s best known expatriate gardening author living in Spain for 25 years.

BY now most readers will have had an inch or two of

rainfall and gardens are looking fresher and greener than a few weeks ago.

Plants that have hibernated in terms of producing flowers will bloom again.

Already autumn flowering plants such as our salvia/sage collection

are coming into flower.

With days a little cooler it is great to spend a half day in the garden again without having to start at sunrise.

And there is plenty to do as described in the monthly work lists in each of the books written by myself and Clodagh.

If you need new plants to extend planted areas, or replace plants lost during the hot dry summer, now is a good time to start potting-up cuttings of many perennial plants, not just salvias, shrubs and trees.

Sunso is THE leading brand for all your outdoor furniture

SUNSO is the leading Spanish brand of contemporary outdoor furniture on the Costa del Sol. Established in 2005 by innovative director Geraud Vidalinc, the company provides solutions and innovative design for outdoor spaces from garden, porches, terraces and indoor spaces.

Manufacturing a wide range of outdoor furniture, the long established brand is the main provider to Marbella’s finest hotels and venues along the coast, providing furniture to the crème de la crème of the Costa del Sol, including Marbella Club, La Zagaleta and Kempinsky Hotel to name just a few.

The company, which mainly works with interior designers, also executes projects and provides Flagship collections to Europe, Morocco and South America. The Miraqe in Tangier, The Pearl and The Hivernage in Marrakesh and further afield in the Dominican Republic and the Seychelles all appear on the long list of five star luxury hotels who work with Sunso. They also offer the best products in quality and in price for integral projects like:

QUALITY FURNITURE: The designs are stunning. beach clubs, golf clubs and restaurants, etc.

Geraud prides himself in the quality of the furniture, stating: “Our objective is to develop very durable, functional and aesthetically pleasing furniture to offer enjoyable, relaxing and inspiring moments outdoors with friends and family.” He goes on to say, “Our long established brand has been developed over the years into a Flagship Collection which is recognised by many for

its style, creativity and high quality.”

An interesting point that I wanted to ask Geraud was the quality difference between high superior outdoor furniture and the cheaper furniture you would find in many chain stores.

His answer intrigued me, “German fibres are used for durability, quality and endurance, whilst the cheaper fibres imported from China, are not flexible, durable and of

poor quality, meaning that after one summer outside in Costa temperatures, the furniture will crack, fade and change shape.”

Although our furniture is initially a more expensive purchase, it will last for many more years and still look beautiful”.

These collections also use stainless steel aluminium, which will of course not oxidise or become green coated and for anyone who prefers the look of teak furniture, the imported 30 year old teak from Indonesia will last a lifetime, without maintenance.

I took a sneaky peek at the upcoming collection for the new season and with the emphasis on more natural and warm lines, the designs are just stunning.

It is called ‘Hormonas de enraizamiento.’

By the way, if you are learning Spanish, there are comprehensive gardening vocabularies at the back of our gardening books.

If you have vegetable gluts, process some for unseasonal use during the winter or buy a turkey or a couple of laying hens that will be happy to eat most vegetables, to cut down on grain costs.

As discussed last week, have a go at starting to grow vegetables with first objectives being autumn salad leaves and all the vegetables for Christmas Day including new potatoes grown in a large bucket or dustbin.

Garden centres and general stores are starting to stock winter/spring bulbs. Many grow well in Spain but in general tulips don’t survive year after year here as they can be attacked by moisture

loving pests such as slugs.

Daffodils and irises do better. You might also come across some autumn-flowering saffron crocuses. It can be fun to collect and dry the stamens to flavour and colour rice dishes.

As the temperatures drop reduce your watering and prompt plants to put down deeper roots and avoid autumn pest attacks brought on by over watering.

Make the best of the next four gardening weeks before the clocks change and autumn starts for real.

Spanish planes that hit the big screen in the ‘Battle of Britain’

By David Kavanagh THE Euro Weekly News reported that five former Spanish fighter planes were being sold from a warehouse in Texas, USA and said they were never used by the Spanish or German Air Forces, but were used as Hollywood props. This is not quite correct.

The five aircraft are Hispano Aviación HA-1112 which was a Spanish licensed-built version of the famous German Messerschmitt Me 109 of World War Two. The Germans having supplied Franco with aircraft during the Civil War, the Spanish continued to build these themselves both during and after World War Two. After the war the Spanish were unable to obtain further German engines so fitted Rolls Royce Merlin engines purchased from the UK to fit to their licence-built Me 109

SPANISH BUILT: A Rolls Royce Merlin engined HA-1112 that operates from Duxford, England. It is still painted in the Luftwaffe markings it wore for the 1969 film Battle of Britain to represent a German Messerschmitt Me 109. airframes. This became the Hispano HA-1112, known as the Buchón. Ironically it was

the Rolls Royce Merlin engine that powered the Spitfires and Hurricanes that fought the

German Me 109s over England in 1940 during the Battle of Britain.

The Spanish Air Force, Ejército del Aire, continued to operate the Hispano HA-1112, including the five aircraft now for sale in USA, until 1968.

These five aircraft, and approximately 20 more were purchased from the Spanish Government by the makers of the 1969 film ‘Battle of Britain,’ United Artists, and flown to the UK for the flying sequences of the film. The aircraft playing the part of German Messerschmitt Me 109s.

At the end of the filming these five were purchased by a Texan pilot who had flown them in the film. He stored them in a warehouse in Texas for 45 years and they are now for sale for at least €600,000.

A number of restored Hispano HA-1112 Buchóns continue to fly in Europe, mostly painted to represent German Me 109s.

HEWING the fat at a restaurant table I surmised that the US will cease being a power of consequence by

2020.

The European Union, the economy and foreign policy of which is largely directed

by Wall Street and Washington, will find itself isolated and in a permanent state of 1980s era discord and austerity.

I withered under my friend’s scorn but hardly alone in my forecast. Fast-moving global politics is to me a fascinating game; watch this space.

The petrodollar is history; time is running out for the US now reeling under a $17 trillion debt. Added to by $2.38 billion each day it is predicted to be at an unsustainable Weimar $26 trillion by 2020.

Ensnared by Wall Street / Washington DC policies, Western Europeans now find ourselves in a 1914 hotbed of red lines, propaganda, aggression and economic warfare. We despair of our political elite.

We know our system has failed but are

clueless as to what can be done to recover governance from the failing self-serving elite.

The European Union has uncomfortable similarities with pre-Perestroika era of the collapsing Soviet Union. It is fundamentally controlled by 27 unelected commissioners and two unelected Presidents; the rest is theatre for sheeple.

Komsomol Pravda, a popular tabloid read by Russians living in Spain: “The EU in the worst sense of the word is very much the new USSR.” Mikhail Gorbachev: “Why is the EU trying to recreate the USSR?” This last President of the USSR introduced Perestroika (reform) so radical it brought about penury to hundreds of millions of Russians and Eastern Europeans.

Circumstance will bring similar change to the 28 EU nations.

The Euro and

petrodollar, undermined by competing currencies and bank-free barter; life savings, national assets and economies will be stripped by a failing economy Will we be saved by our own President Putin? On assuming office in 2000 the popular Russian president turned oligarchs into fugitives, nationalised the banks, exiled the

West’s rapacious conglomerates, and diverted Russian resources to Russia’s needs. As a consequence the Russian economy bounced back. This is what lies behind the current stand-off.

The EU is now a perestroika era USSR. So, who do we vote for? First must come the realisation that sheep-like voting for rotating dictatorships keeps the corrupt political elite in place.

It is not politicians who need replacing but the system of governance. An end to political parties; election by public referendum of constituency candidates with a track record in service to the community and experience, who, every 12 months must explain their previous year’s achievements. An end to conflict of interest; no public official, their families or connections, to benefit from extra reward during or after office.

Such change will anyway be thrust upon us by BRICS and other trade blocs with which an isolated Europe cannot hope to compete without painful perestroika. Otherwise, the European Union, cut off from its sinking American mother ship, will become a Stalinist Europe.

Gain the rewards of being a high quality live-in carer WHAT do Consultus live-in carers find the most enjoyable aspect of their work? The clients.

That was one of the results of an inhouse survey carried out by the company and it came as no surprise. For in the 50plus years that the company has been providing live-in carers and nurses, Consultus has won a reputation as one of the UK’s most respected organisations of its type. As a result, it tends to be the more discerning clients who seek the company’s services. People who have led interesting and successful lives and who, as the survey also identified, are very grateful for the compassionate and professional services they receive.

But again that is also not surprising, because Consultus takes great care to identify, train and support live-in carers who have the patience, empathy and desire to make a real difference to people’s lives. The additional rewards include the flexibility to work when and how often they like. Living with clients in the UK for 24/7 for periods of two to four weeks, Consultus live-in carers have the

benefit of their own private room and board and can earn £910 to £1,372 for a two-week assignment.

Consultus live-in carers come from a wide range of backgrounds. Some have had long careers in care, while others have little or no experience other than caring for family members and take advantage of the company’s training opportunities.

Whilst there are no formal age restrictions, maturity and a certain level of life experience is looked for. Training is carried out in the UK over three days to the highest levels, at the end of which carers usually go straight into placements with clients carefully matched by Consultus.

Whilst in training, carers can take advantage of the The Carer House, which gives new and existing carers the opportunity to stay near the company’s head office in Tonbridge, Kent.

If you think you have the attributes to become a carer and would like to take advantage of the benefits offered by a friendly and professional agency, you

Joys spotlight on‌ Andres Martin

HOW did you start as an entertainer?

I started my career because of my father Nestor Martinez, a saxophone player who introduced me to this world, and sent me to music college to study piano until I decided what I wanted in life was to become a professional musician.

What do you love about performing on the Costa del Sol? I love the mix of all different nationalities in the same place that gives me the chance to sing and play all styles of music that I really enjoy.

Who are your musical influences?

I was brought up listening to artists like Kool & The Gang, Phil Collins, Level 42 amongst others, and of course - Latin music my origin :-) with artists like Juan Luis Guerra, Ruben Blades, Mana etc.

What makes Performing at Joys Live so special?

What makes Joys Live so special is the adventure of being able to share the stage with other first class artists every day. And to be able to perform for a public that really enjoys the live music (as much as we do!) this creates a great feeling for everyone!

OPINION & COMMENT

The Spanish spy who came in from the heat Peter Fieldman London-born journalist and author, Peter spends his time between Paris and Madrid.

His novel ‘1066 The Conquest’ available on Amazon or www.1066TheConquest.com

www.pfieldman.blogspot.com

D

-Day 1944: the largest invasion force in history successfully landed on the shores of Normandy to end the Nazi domination of Europe.

But without the contribution of a selfmade, Spanish double agent, the outcome of the Second World War might have been different.

Juan Pujol Garcia was born in Barcelona in 1912. He first experienced conflict during the Spanish Civil War joining the Republican cause. Rejecting Communism, he defected to the Nationalists during the battle for the Ebro in 1938.

However, he lost faith with the Fascist regime and ended the war in prison. He was proud to have fought for both sides without firing a shot and at the outbreak of the Second World War with Spain neutral, decided to help the Allies.

He walked into the British Embassy in Madrid offering his services but was turned down. Not deterred, he conjured up the idea of becoming a German agent. Impressed by a fascist Spaniard with a diplomatic passport, able to travel to and from the UK, the German intelligence service in Madrid jumped at the opportunity to use his services.

Freidrich Knappe-Ratey, the German intelligence officer, gave him a rudimentary course in spying with code-books, invisible ink, etc, expenses, a code-name – Arabel – and instructed him to go to London and recruit a network of spies.

The truth was that Juan Pujol was no fascist, carried a false diplomatic passport, had never been to England and spoke no English. He established himself in Lisbon and at the public library, from maps, tourist guides, timetables and cinema newsreels, learnt as much as he could about England. He started to feed the Madrid embassy with all manner of information, most of it factual but irrelevant.

Having managed to break the German Enigma cipher machine, the

NORMANDY LANDINGS: Pujol (right) played a major role in convincing the Germans that the Allied invasion would take place in the Dover Strait, the shortest channel crossing. code-breakers at Bletchley Park became intrigued by a mass of false reports being passed to the Germans. One about a non-existent convoy en route to the Mediterranean led them to track down the mysterious person sending this data. Pujol was eventually located in Lisbon and this time he was not turned down.

He travelled to London, where, given the code-name Garbo, after the actress, he began to work with Tomas Harris, a Spanish-speaking British intelligence officer. Together they sent hundreds of letters to a post office box in Lisbon where the Germans were overjoyed at having such a reliable spy in England.

And it was not just one spy. Pujol had established a network of spies scattered across the country, only they never existed. To ensure credibility the messages sent were a mix of correct but unimportant data and occasionally important military details which were deliberately delayed and sent too late for the Germans to act. With his imaginary network of spies, Pujol could always blame one of his operators for delays or errors.

The Germans were so impressed that Pujol was provided with the latest codeciphering devices, which were gratefully passed on to Bletchley Park.

At the beginning of 1944, the Germans needed Arabel - Pujol - to give them whatever information he could

about the invasion they believed was being planned. Meanwhile ‘Operation Fortitude’, the code-name for the plan to deceive the German High Command, was already in operation and Pujol played a major role in convincing them that the invasion would take place in the Dover Strait, the shortest channel crossing. He and Harris were sending a stream of radio and written messages

Pujol is believed to be the only person to have been awarded medals by both the Germans and the British

giving the Germans details about the army being massed in Kent.

As part of the deception plan, realistic dummy inflatable tanks, artillery, jeeps, landing craft and armoured cars had been made and scattered across the countryside throughout Southeast England. German reconnaissance planes would detect a vast array of military equipment near Dover. To add to the deception the Allies arranged for General Patton, known to the Germans

as a key military figure, to tour the region.

To ensure that the Germans would not realise they were being duped, messages were sent warning of the Normandy invasion but told that it was a diversion with the real invasion taking place in July or August. Hitler was convinced and despite General Rommel’s opposition, ordered that the major armoured divisions and troops be sent to the Pas de Calais where they remained for two months after the June 6 landings, allowing the invasion to succeed.

After the war, concerned for his safety, Pujol faked his own death in Africa before moving to Venezuela, where he opened a bookshop in Caracas and having divorced his first wife, remarried and had three children.

Pujol’s vital role in the success of the D-Day landings was recognised and in November 1944 he received an MBE from King George VI. Six months earlier he had been awarded the Iron Cross for his services to the Reich, still convinced of his loyalty. He is believed to be the only person to have been awarded medals by both the Germans and the British.

Four years prior to his death in Venezuela in 1988, Pujol journeyed to France on June 6, 1984, to visit the Normandy beaches and cemeteries to pay his respects to the fallen.

GIBRALTAR’S British status should be backed by Congress, according to the wishes of senior US politicians.

The resolution was laid down by the House of Representatives, led by North Carolina Republican George Holding, one of seven leading Congressmen in a bipartisan group.

The resolution cites the importance of the Rock’s strategic position to US and British military interests which, defence analysts say, could be jeopardised if Gibraltar came under Spanish control.

“The United States has relied on Gibraltar’s military facilities numerous times, including America’s first overseas military intervention in 1801 against the Barbary States, World War II, and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization intervention in 2011 in Libya,” states the resolution.

“During World War II, General Dwight Eisenhower used Gibraltar as his headquarters to plan the liberation of North Africa stating: ‘Without it the vital air cover would not have

Retrospective art exhibition

Stones thrown at RGP

ROYAL GIBRALTAR POLICE (RGP) have been involved in a nasty incident which saw them pelted with stones and rocks whilst carrying out an anti-tobacco smuggling operation. A police operation was launched on Friday September 19 to combat tobacco smuggling which successfully resulted in the seizure of 90,000 cigarettes.

Long climb MORE than 100 people are participating in the challenge of climbing the Med Steps organised by the Motor Neurone Disease Gibraltar Support Group in an effort to raise both awareness and funds.

Summit invite DELIGHTED: Fabian Picardo welcomed US backing of British status.

Backing British been quickly established on the North African fields.’

“The security situation in North Africa and the Middle East continues to underscore the need for the United States to maintain secure access to Gibraltar’s military facilities.”

The resolution also acknowledges Gibraltar’s status under the 1713 Treaty of Utrecht, and the two polls in 1967 and 2002, when Gibraltarians chose to keep the Union Flag.

Speaking to the Sunday

Express, former First Sea Lord, Admiral Lord West, said: “Strategically Gibraltar is very important. The Spaniards have been very difficult in the way they have dealt with this issue, despite the Treaty of Utrecht which states it is British in perpetuity.

Recently they’ve been causing a lot of trouble. A British warship that stops at a Spanish port cannot then go on to Gibraltar. The Americans have always been very keen to use it. It

Gaming tax law protest GIBRALTAR’S gambling and gaming businesses have challenged a new remote tax law which the gaming industry views as unlawful.

The tax would see a ‘point of consumption’ policy introduced when taxing gambling businesses, which would result in a steep increase in the amount of tax paid by Gibraltar’s mainly online gaming sector.

Gibraltar’s gaming companies are

planning to seek a ruling in the UK’s High Court of Justice in London against the tax, which they view as a movement against competition in the sector thinly disguised in a veil of ‘consumer protection’.

QC Lord Pannick will be representing Gibraltar’s interests in the High Court, and the case to be presented is believed to focus on the implications such a tax could have for the constitutional relations between the UK and Gibraltar.

would help everybody if Spain just left Gibraltar alone.”

The chief minister, Fabian Picardo, affirmed his delight at the resolution.

SECRETARY General of the UN Ban KiMoon has extended an invitation to Minister for Health and the Environment Dr John Cortes and Chief Executive for the Department of the Environment Dr Liesl Mesilio Torres to participate in the UN Climate Summit.

CHARITIES ADANA THE ANIMAL SHELTER IN ESTEPONA. We always need volunteers to walk and socialise with our dogs and help with cleaning. We also need good homes for our animals that you can see on www.adana.es. Kennels open every day 10-1.30, Camino de Casares, near Parque de los Pedregales, Estepona. (5 minutes from the Poligono) For more information call Marjorie 952 79 74 05 or 636 934 146 (93319) ACE CHARITY at El Refugio Kennels always needs volunteers to help with dog walking. It’s good exercise, a couple of hours any morning of the week. Foster and permanent homes also needed for our many inmates! Vivien 639 991 079 (93320) SEPE the horse and donkey charity is open to the public week-ends from 10.00 to 5.00. Volunteers are much needed in all departments and are welcome at anytime. For our riding for the disabled classes, we are also in need of extra helpers. We are nationally registered by the Spanish Ministry of the Interior (164640) but only with your support can we give the equine a voice. If you can just commit to 2 or 3 euros a month it will really help make a difference. You can find us at Lauro Golf Equestrian Centre, Alqueria, Alhaurin de la Torre. Tel. 608 258 950 info@sepeonline.net www.sepeonline.net (93321) At SOS Animal Refuge we have dogs, young and old looking for homes. Some of our dogs have been with us for some time and would love to find a cosy spot to curl up in and a knee on which to rest their heads. If you have room in your heart and home we would love to hear from you.

We do not put our dogs to sleep - no matter how old, they are safe with us. For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much ap-

preciate the support we receive. We desperately need items to sell on our market stall to help raise funds and are happy to come and collect. So if you are having a clear-out, please contact us on 605 227 155. If you would like to know more about re-homing, please call 653 257 875.

Visit our website www.sos-ani mals.org or please phone Sandy on 952 385 923 or 666 814 056 if you would like to make a donation or help in any way.

Range Rover’s laser first

www.euroweeklynews.com

THE Range Rover Evoque is now available with an advanced integrated laser Head-Up Display (HUD).

The secondary driver information display projects useful information directly onto the vehicle’s windscreen and into the driver’s field of vision. In a world first, the Land Rover system features laser holographic techniques, resulting in superior colour saturation, brightness and contrast compared to rival systems, and all in a small, lightweight package.

The innovative laser system is more robust against issues such as ‘washout’ - the effect that the glare from sunlight has on inferior LED-based systems.

A further addition to the Range Rover Evoque’s suite of innovate technologies, HUD allows drivers to maintain a clear view of

the road, while simultaneously receiving key driving information such as road speed, gear position, turn-byturn navigation, traffic sign recognition, the cruise control set speed and the Automatic Cruise Control (ACC) status, including warnings.

The system is fully configurable and customisable; functions can be switched on or off, brightness can be increased or decreased and the vertical position of the display can be

adjusted from the cluster menu.

“Jaguar Land Rover’s HUD system is an innovative driver information tool, which really pushes the boundaries of advanced laser projection technology. It borrows from military technology - which, until now, has been unheard of in the automotive industry,” said Murray Dietsch, Director Land Rover Programme.

“Land Rover is committed to preventing the risk of accidents by reducing driver distraction. By presenting driver information in this way and removing the need to look away from the road ahead, HUD is an important step to delivering Land Rover’s vision of the intelligent car of the future.”

LASER DISPLAY: Land Rover on the road to the car of the future.
