Malaga eyes annual tourism conference

The Costa del Sol has put forward a nomination to host the annual Spanish Tourism Federation Conference (Fetave) in 2015.

Delays as doctors holiday TWO doctors on leave have resulted in delays and a drop in performance at the Hospital Clinico in Malaga.

According to health service unions, the level of assistance provided to patients has suffered, as well as response time by emergency personnel.

The unions are demanding that

the SAS regional health service provides sufficient cover for the doctors on leave so that excessive work does not build up and staff can focus on patient care.

The General Labour Union (UGT) has taken immediate measures to guarantee the mental health of emergency

workers who face huge amounts of stress and anxiety, it said.

Related to this, one medical emergency worker suffered extreme stress and anxiety due to the lack of personnel, a bigger workload and very long scheduled shift rotations that had to do with the lack of staff, according to the union.

MYSTERY PLAY OF ELCHE: One of the religious highlights of the year.

A date with history ONE of the religious highlights of the year is the Mystery Play of Elche.

Normally performed in August, this year there is a second chance to see what has been declared by Unesco one of the Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity.

Held at the Basilica of Santa Maria, the play dates back to the 15th century and is a chanted drama that commemorates the Assumption of Mary.

In even-numbered years there are extra ticketed performances on October 29 and 30, followed by free access on November 1.

The play has lasted through to modern times despite the Council of Trento (1545-1563) banning

Participants are amateur singers with a choir of children to voice Mary and the angels. Around 300 people take part, with many thousands of spectators. In keeping with medieval mystery plays the stage is organised horizontally for the Earth and vertically for Heaven.

It is viewed as being the last truly Medieval Mystery Play surviving, with the text being taken from collections dating from 1625.

Burning issue TWO Catalans have been fined €900 each for burning a portrait of the former King Juan Carlos I. The incident happened during a pro-independence protest before the abdication.

While not condoning the act, which may well have been taken as being insulting to many Royalists, it was still something that should be covered by freedom of expression. Disrespectful?

Yes, but why should that be illegal? Surely the courts have better things to occupy their time with than this.

Cabopino hashish haul DURING a surveillance and control operation launched by police at sports ports in Malaga Province, the Guardia Civil seized a large

amount of illegal drugs.

Guardia Civil officers in Marbella detained two people after discovering hundreds of kilos of hashish hidden in a

sailing boat berthed at Puerto Deportivo de Cabopino.

During a thorough search conducted on board the vessel, during which the police had to use saws to gain access to the hiding places, the

officers located 445 packages containing 434 kilos of hashish, as well as 24 grammes of methamphetamine, 47 amphetamine pills, €1,100 in cash, a GPS and four mobile phones, one of which had been

stolen earlier this year in Torrevieja, Alicante.

A man and a woman of Spanish nationality were placed under arrest for alleged crimes against public health and remanded in custody.

Proposals to ease traffic congestion in Malaga PLANS to improve Malaga’s road infrastructure are to be aired at a council meeting.

Changes to Calle Victoria and the tunnel leading to the Plaza Merced will be proposed by technical engineer Manuel Olmedo Checa at the next social council meeting in Malaga. The objective is to minimise traffic on these streets.

His plans for Calle Victoria involve making it into a one-way street directing northward traffic towards Lagunillas, Cruz Verde and Altozano roads. The

extra space opened up would be used as a bicycle lane.

His other plan involves removing another car lane from the tunnel that leads to the Plaza de la Merced and implementing a bike lane there. He is also going to propose the creation of glass screens and the closing up of the roof of the tunnel to minimise noise.

Finally, Olmedo Checa is going to try and revive a project to link Plaza de la Merced via Mundo Nuevo with the castle; however, this project requires an investment of €20 million.

A SECURITY GUARD has been sentenced by a Malaga court to pay a fine for his part in assaulting two youths on an Estepona beach last summer.

The man was found guilty on two counts of injury and has been ordered to pay a fine amounting to €300.

According to the established version of events, the two youths had been at a ‘botellón’ (public unauthorised party) on the beach before passing through Estepona’s port.

One of them leant against and broke a fence, and it was when they returned to the zone later

at around 4.30am, that the guard confronted them.

The youths tried to pick a fight. His reaction was to draw his truncheon and hit them.

The guard has been ordered to pay a fine because the court considered his reaction to the situation excessive.

an event. He also stressed that if such an event were to occur the professionals have been trained to strictly enforce exact protocols and to follow quarantine procedures exactly.

Perez said that the area will remain on high alert and reassured the public that those professionals who would have the most direct contact with possible cases had received the utmost training on how to handle outbreak situations.

Spanish nurse contracts Ebola A SPANISH NURSE, Teresa Romero Ramos, 44, has tested positive for the Ebola virus after coming into contact with the infected missionary, Manuel García Viejo.

And now her husband has been admitted to hospital for observation as a high-risk case.

The auxiliary nurse tested positive for the deadly virus after displaying symptoms including a high fever.

The husband of the stricken nurse - the first case of Ebola to be contracted and diagnosed in Europe - is isolated in quarantine and will be observed, although he is still not displaying any symptoms.

Two others have also been put in quarantine: a man who has recently

The infected nurse, who works at Madrid’s Carlos III Hospital, treated priest Manuel García Viejo, who

was flown to the Spanish capital from Sierra Leone.

García Viejo died of the virus on September 26.

The woman is the third Ebola sufferer to be treated in Spain, but the first to contract the virus on Spanish soil. She is the first case in the history of the virus contracted outside of the African continent.

NEWS Resignation demand MORE than 200 sanitation professionals who work at Carlos Haya Hospital in Malaga gathered outside to protest and demand the resignation of the Health Minister Ana Mato.

The protest was due to the recent confirmation of a nurse being infected with Ebola in Madrid.

Organised by the Confederation Association of Workers Committees (CCOO), the protestors called for the rejection of the government’s and the Community of Madrid’s policy regarding the virus and to do all that it could to help the infected woman.

Workers at the Carlos Haya Hospital began the demonstration at noon, waving banners and posters criticising the Spanish Government.

Plaza Antonio Banderas to get new lease of life MARBELLA Town Hall is to restore Puerto Banus’s main public area.

Renovations to Plaza Antonio Banderas will begin next summer after the local government gave the go ahead to invest €500,000 in the project.

The plaza occupies an area of 13,000 square metres, and is one of Puerto Banus’s main urban focal points, given its position right in the middle of one of Marbella’s major commercial zones.

With so many people passing through the area, the plaza’s condition has suffered in recent years, and the project aims to spruce it up and promote tourism.

UPGRADE: Plaza Antonio Banderas in Puerto Banus.

Renovation work will be carried out on the plaza’s floor and garden, and the fountains will be repaired.

There are also plans to install a trellis around the plaza in an effort to give more shade to the zone and provide a cool area in which to congregate

during the hot summer months.

Planning for the project will begin immediately to ensure that everything is ready before the summer, and the work to be carried out in the plaza could begin as early as Easter next year.

NEW DECREE: Has been widely criticised by tourism businesses.

Inadequate B&B rules upset hotels A DRAFT bill of a decree aimed at regulating the hotel and B&B sector along the Costa del Sol has upset hoteliers and businesses across the region.

The decision by the Tourism Office to regulate B&Bs for the first time has been widely criticised by businesses in the tourism sector.

The decree was approved by Andalucia’s

tourism board on September 9, and is still being finalised.

It is intended to combat undeclared and illegal B&Bs and create a level playing field for competition.

According to sources in Andalucia’s government, the draft bill was passed with nine votes in favour and one abstention, whilst it received stiff opposition from two of Andalucia’s

Blue bay build hotels in Egypt BLUE BAY is to participate in the construction of 100 boutique hotels in Egypt.

Marbella-based multinational hotels company Blue Bay signed an agreement with the Egyptian Tourism Ministry and an international consortium to participate in the construction of 100 boutique hotels in Marsa Alam, close to the Red Sea. The project was presented last week in Egypt at an official event attended by Egyptian Tourism Minister Hisham Zazou, Blue Bay Executive Deputy President Gonzalo Hervas and representatives from the participating consortium, which includes companies from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Italy, Spain and the United Arab Emirates.

The first part of the tourist complex, called Hotel City Marsa Alam and scheduled to be inaugurated in 2018, is to be located near Marsa Alam airport.

The project also includes the construction of a shopping centre with more than 300 stores inside the tourist city with movie theatres and restaurants specialising in international cuisine. Developers expect it to attract 30,000 people every day.

main business associations (the Confederación de Empresarios de Andalucía and the Confederación Empresarial de Comercio).

On Tuesday September 30 in Malaga, the current draft bill was criticised by Andalucia’s Hotels and Apartments Federation (Fahat) who represent a total of 3,000 hotels and B&Bs in the Malaga region, with more than 350,000 beds.

Fahat’s President, José Carlos Escribano, complained that the Junta de Andalucia (regional government) have not listened to their needs when drafting the bill, and has called for similar legislative treatment for the entire market.

Fahat want the decree to set a minimum stay of five days for an apartment to then be classed as ‘used for tourism’: a rule that is currently only in place in Madrid and Barcelona.

The new regulations will require all B&Bs to sign up to Andalucia’s Tourism Register, and then use their registration number whenever they publicise or promote the B&B. If owners fail to do this, the locale will be classed as ‘clandestine’ and inspectors may be called in.

GIBRALTAR WATERS: Britain expressed concern over irresponsible actions.

Grave concern over intrusion EUROPEAN Minister David Lidlington has expressed Britain’s concerns over a Spanish research vessel which exercised “irresponsible” and “dangerous” manoeuvres in Gibraltar’s waters.

The minister, who has contacted Spain’s foreign secretary said: “The irresponsible actions and dangerous manoeuvring of this vessel were not only unlawful but also presented

a significant risk to the safety of Royal Navy personnel at sea.

“Under no circumstances should Spanish vessels be provoking a situation that could result in serious injury or a fatality. The waters around Gibraltar are indisputably British.”

And he added: “We will continue to take whatever action necessary to uphold British sovereignty and the interests of Gibraltar, its

people, its security and economy.”

This is the latest in a series of strained relations between the two countries.

In April, another research vessel entered the British waters, followed by a Spanish police boat.

Any incursion into British Gibraltar Territorial Waters

by Spain is considered an attempt to exert control and as a breach of UK Sovereignty.

Hola Credito’s solution for self employed developer

Welcome to the weekly news from Hola Credito, Spain’s leading short term lender. In our column we look at different financial solutions that Hola Credito offers - this week - an expert resolution for fluctuating incomes BEING your own boss can be exciting, invigorating and profitable, but it is also hard work, stressful and normally means you have an irregular income. Property developers are usually self employed, and often have very variable incomes, month on month, which means financial planning can be very difficult.

But for one successful local property developer regular shortfalls in cash flow have become a thing of the past, thanks to Hola Credito.

“It can be very difficult to juggle my company’s financial commitments,” the client said. “I have suppliers and workers to pay, and if one of my customers is late paying me - well the company used to struggle to pay all the bills.”

It is often hard for the self employed to persuade banks to make short term loans because of their erratic cash flow. But Hola Credito specialises in short term loans using assets as collateral, and is for

many clients an easy, private fix for cash flow problems.

The property developer emailed Hola Credito, attaching pictures of the Range Rover Sport he owned, which he wanted to use as security, and the company approved a loan within the hour.

“I have used Hola Credito on and off for a couple of years now, and because it already knows the car, it makes the process even easier,” the client said. “It doesn’t want to know what the money is for, and more importantly for me, it doesn’t need proof of my income. Using Hola Credito is the most sensible business decision I can make to manage the company’s cash flow.”

Puerta Banus based Hola Credito (www.holacredito.com) is one of Spain’s leading short term lenders, offering flexible loan terms of between two weeks and six months on a range of assets including watches, jewellery and yachts.

publishing contract with Hay House, who published their first book ‘Gastric Mind Band, the proven pain free alternative to weight loss surgery’.

Interest in their approach resulted in them being invited to present details at Professor Philip Zimbardo’s 1st Time Perspective Conference at Coimbra University in Portugal in 2012. This year, they were invited, along with Dr Sarah Clarke, to present a full symposium on their TactileCBT, a therapy they developed as a psychological aid to permanent weight loss at the 2nd World Conference at Warsaw University in Poland in July.

Their procedure is surgery-free, providing a real alternative to having a surgical, adjustable gastric band fitted. The treatment is now considered by many to be the ‘Gold Standard’ in the field of permanent weight-loss solutions.

Payment plan for new Costa del Sol hospital MALAGA’S west coastal towns of Manílva, Casares and Estepona have jointly offered finance to the Junta de Andalucía regional government to complete the hospital project Chare, which was due to start construction in 2005.

The three town halls have agreed to finance 50 per cent of the €16 million needed to build the hightech hospital, similar to the Chare in Benalmádena.

President of Costa del Sol’s west coastal communities, Margarita del Cid, the governor of Estepona, José María García Urbano, and the mayor of Manilva, Diego Urieta, announced the proposal at a press conference, where they all collaborated and said the proposal was made “in the spirit of the communities” and because there was “a vital necessity in the area” for the west coastal inhabitants.

The offer consists of Estepona Town Hall paying 25 per cent of the total construction, while Casares and Manilva pay 10 per cent each of

The mayor of Estepona reminded the press that the council agreed to build the hospital in 2005 to accommodate the growing population of 200,000 inhabitants in the summer months. He said:

“The economic structure has been agreed with the council. It is of absolute necessity to strengthen and improve the health service in the area. It will also relieve pressure on the Costa del Sol hospital in Marbella.”

The hospital project solicited the building licence in 2008 and it was granted in 2009. But in June 2011, the Andalucian Council decided not to go ahead and the proposal has been shelved ever since.

Concern for Malaga’s fishermen as fishing grounds continue to close FISHERMEN in Malaga Province have grown increasingly concerned for their future, as fishing ground closures force many to consider seeking other employment.

It has been announced that up to five of the nine fishing grounds along Malaga’s coast may have to close, including the major fishing grounds of Fuengirola and Velez.

The closure of the Caleta de Velez was announced on Friday October 3 due to a red tide (a natural phenomenon caused by a large concentration of toxic microorganisms), and despite promises of compensation, many fishermen feel that these days their losses

The Junta de Andalucia (regional government) has said

that compensation is available for fishermen whose area is closed for a period of 21 days or more, but many have noted wryly that closed grounds ‘miraculously’ reopen after 18 or 19 days, thus denying fishermen the right to any compensation.

Compared to 2013, 2014 has been a good year, when closures saw losses of up to 85 per cent. But with 150 fishing vessels in the Province, and each supporting an average of three families, it’s little wonder that Malaga’s fishermen are considering looking elsewhere for employment.

Squatters made legal FAMILIES illegally living in apartment blocks in Malaga have begun to receive legal papers allowing them to stay.

Most of these properties are owned by banks that took possession, evicting the previous tenants.

Up until now 15 people have acquired the necessary paperwork to legalise their situation, according to the councillor of social affairs.

The hope is that the number increases.

In fact, the local government has received about 30 applications that are undergoing the authorisation process.

The councillor said: “I wasn’t expecting this many, but it will benefit those who lack the documentation.

The important thing is that they practice their right to this endorsement.”

One of the reasons that the city council has decided to offer the registration is to secure the stability of family life.

It has begun to offer registration to families that have been living in an apartment for a minimum of three months.

One of the advocates for the squatters commended the local government for its efforts to help them.

He thanked the council for helping them exercise their right that “never should have been infringed upon in the first place.”

“Since the announcement of the registries no one has called to complain,” noted the city councillor.

Six police officers arrested on suspicion of Cartagena murder SIX National Police officers in Cartagena have been arrested on suspicion of beating a man to death and throwing his body into the sea.

Local and Judicial Police officers carried out the arrests early in the morning on Monday October 6, entering the officers’ own police station and arresting the six suspects accused of killing 43-year-old Diego Pérez Tomás.

Six months of investigations have been brought to a climax with the detention of the officers, who all share certain characteristics in common: they are all young, and tended to work the night shift in the city of Cartagena, Murcia.

The deceased, Diego Pérez Tomás, was seen by witnesses getting into a police patrol car outside his home at around 4am on Monday, March 11.

Pérez Tomás, who had lived alone since the death of his parents, was known for consorting with petty drug traffickers, and had previously called the police that night saying that he ‘felt threatened.’

La Verdad has reported the likely

UNDER SUSPICION: Investigations have taken place over the last six months. series of events as proposed by investigators, who suspect that after Pérez Tomás got into the back of the police car, he was driven three kilometres from his home to Cala Cortina beach, possibly for the fun of leaving

him with a long walk home.

At some point Pérez Tomás, known throughout the neighbourhood for his gentle nature, became nervous, and was hit a number of times in order to be kept quiet.

Two more patrol cars turned up at the beach, and with six officers now involved, it is thought that one of the two officers in the original police car may have accidently dealt a fatal blow to Pérez Tomás, and then called on friends to help dispose of the body.

All this is speculation on the part of the investigating officers, but there is also a degree of evidence to back up their claims.

The body was found washed up on the shore 15 days later, and an autopsy revealed that Pérez Tomás had received numerous blows to the body before death, indicating that he was most likely beaten to death by hand.

Conversations overheard in the patrol vehicles, together with the GPS placement of various personal mobile phones possessed by the officers strongly indicate that the six policemen were at the Cala Cortina beach on that night.

Investigators will now try to ascertain exactly what happened through the testimonies of the arrested men.

The case continues.

Stay safe by the pool…

HE summer is at an end and for many of us it is time to pack away the swimming pool for another year as the evenings get shorter and the weather chillier.

We leave summer behind, but the happy memories of splashing and frolicking in the pool, or simply lying stretched-out in the middle on a lilo, will stay with us.

Sadly, issues surrounding pool safety were thrown sharply into focus when the tragic death of a two-year-old boy occurred in a neighbour’s swimming pool on the Costa del Sol last August.

It was terrible news to have to report, and at the Euro Weekly News we want to help raise awareness of pool safety to ensure that the risks of such a tragedy happening again are minimised.

We know how difficult it is for parents to keep an eye on their children 24 hours a day and accidents can happen in a flash, be it during the summer months or winter.

As we have stressed before, installing a pool safety fence will give pool-owners peace of mind. In winter, with lounging around the pool a

Making it onto UK TV DO you know friends or family that are moving to Spain? If so Channel 5 would like to hear from you.

The makers of Benidorm ER - the hugely successful medical documentary on Channel 5 based at Clinca Benidorm - are looking to make a brand new television series about Brits leaving the UK for a better, cheaper life abroad.

The team would like to show how people can leave Blighty for an exciting new start, without breaking the bank. They are keen to find people who are about to move for work or to retire to Spain, who believe they can live twice the life for half the price.

Producers are looking for a real range of stories - people moving to houses, apartments, mobile homes and perhaps families or individuals who are planning to up sticks and build a new life and business in the sunshine.

into a swimming pool.

Although safety fences are required

by Spanish law to be placed around community pools, there is no such restriction on private pools.

In France, the law requires all private pools to be equipped with a safety fence and failure to comply can see fines of up to €220,000 being enforced. We call on our readers to get in contact with their political representatives and demand that Spain follow suit with a similar policy to that of France.

In the meantime, the Euro Weekly News team asks all readers with swimming pools to ensure that they consider the safety of others around their pool.

If you are thinking of suspending the use of your swimming pool during the winter months, why not invest in a covering for your pool? You can never be too careful, and covers are a practical way of both protecting your pool from damage, as well as protecting your loved ones from coming to harm.

Flight attendant jailed for tobacco smuggling A FLIGHT attendant has been jailed for carrying out a €230,000 tobacco smuggling operation between the UK and Spain.

Dennis Connolly has been handed a 21month jail sentence for masterminding a cigarette smuggling operation by using his staff discount privileges to pay for flights.

The easyJet flight attendant was heavily in debt after he took to online gambling to deal with the grief of losing his boyfriend to pancreatic cancer in 2007.

Connolly employed a variety of people to travel to destinations around Spain and Portugal for day-trips and short breaks.

He then gave information on the rotation of customs officials to the smugglers working for him, so that they could sneak the cigarettes back into the UK. The cigarettes would then be sold at bargain prices on the British Black Market,

and as no customs duty had been paid on the tobacco, Connolly was able to make a profit.

All in all, it is thought that Connolly smuggled 1,000 kilos of tobacco into the UK, avoiding €230,000 in duty over a three-year period.

The law caught up with the flight attendant last April when three of his smugglers were stopped at Customs with a large quantity of cigarettes in their suitcases.

The tickets that the three men were travelling with were linked back to Connolly’s flight bookings. As an employee of easyJet, he was able to purchase a large quantity of tickets on the cheap.

Connolly admitted to having committed the crimes of ‘conspiracy to evade duty’ and ‘possession of criminal property’ at Manchester Crown Court, and was jailed for 21 months by the judge.

THE European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in Strasbourg has criticised Spain for its failure to investigate the alleged torture of ETA members.

Tuesday October 7 saw the ECHR condemn Spain’s apathy towards the allegations that a member of the Basque terrorist organisation ETA and a member of Segi, a Basque pro-independence movement were subjected to torture.

The court in Strasbourg said that investigations into the alleged torture of Beatriz Etxebarría Caballero and Oihan Unai Ataun Rojo simply did not take place, and the judges have reminded Spain of the importance of adopting the European Commission’s recommendations to prevent torture.

Alleged torture of ETA condemned

ETA RULING: European Court of Human Rights.

Such recommendations include the enforcement of legally-supervised medical examinations and care to protect and avoid the physical abuse of detainees.

The ECHR ruling has awarded €25,000 in compensation plus €4,000 in costs for Etxebarría and €20,000 in compensation and €4,000 in costs for

Atuan. The court also said there was not enough evidence to determine the severity of the torture that the pair claim they were subjected to.

Etxebarría was arrested in Vizcaya in 2011 in an anti-ETA operation carried out by the Guardia Civil.

Atuan, meanwhile, was detained in Navarra on November 10, 2008.

Arctic Sunrise to dock in Malaga GREENPEACE ship Arctic Sunrise is set to dock in Malaga this month.

The ship has been involved in the documentation of marine pollution by oil from offshore installations in the past. It has been all over the world from within 450 miles of the North Pole to the Amazon and the Congo.

The ship was designed as an icebreaker, with a rounded, keelless hull. In 1997 it became the first ship to circumnavigate James Ross Island in the Antarctic, a previously impossible journey due to a 200 metre thick ice shelf that connected the island to the Antarctic continent.

This ice shelf collapsed, which made the journey for the Arctic Sunrise possible along with the documentation of the evident

The fraud hit hundreds of investors in rare coins. After an agreement with the District Attorney’s office some compensation clauses have been reached.

The court heard that from 2002 to 2005 Sparrow and an associate were taking investors’ cash claiming they would buy rare, collector’s coins in collaboration with Lloyd’s & Associates Asset Management, that they themselves managed. What really happened was they kept almost all the money and sent it to a bank in Cyrus.

To cover up the fraud, Sparrow developed a website on which he posted false information and updates on the investment. He completely avoided meeting with the investors that wanted to see the physical coins.

In 2004 some of the investors began to request that he return their money only to find that Lloyd’s & Associates Asset Management in New York had closed.

Playing for time costly for AENA DELAYS in paying for land compulsorily purchased to extend Madrid’s Barajas airport have proved expensive.

Acquiring 26 million square metres of what was classed as rustic land worth €15 per square metre in 1999 was expected to cost airports operator AENA €390 million.

Fifteen years later AENA must pay at least double that because owners waiting more than two years for compulsory purchase compensation were entitled to a revaluation. This right was claimed by 590 owners although the majority of applications were rejected as being outside the time

limit. Nevertheless, AENA must now pay a further €372 million after 145 claims were upheld.

Another 27 claims involving €37.5 million are pending and at least €400 million will be added to AENA’s bill.

On average the price per square metre rose to €80 while in areas nearest Madrid this soared to €283.

According to legal sources, AENA acted on the advice of State lawyers and paid only owners who accepted the original offer. Those who appealed received nothing while their claims were processed, paving the way for reassessments when land prices were at their highest.

In the working environment is your low-cut top costing you a promotion?

Loose change A look at finance for females

Jane Plunkett jane.plunkett@euroweeklynews.com

W

HILE I was working in the Middle East some time ago I noticed that a friend of mine living there always had a brand new swanky car every single year. This particular man ran an organic food supermarket and café and he was so ‘green’ that he actually charged his mobile phone by connecting it to a type of pump, on which he jumped up and down and the energy he created powered his phone!

Therefore I was naturally

CAREER MOVE: Research shows that what a person wears has a big impact. surprised that this man, who recycled everything imaginable, bought a brand new car every year.

“The brand new car is a business move,” he told me. When doing deals in that part of the world, if he

drove up to the meeting in a shiny new car, his prospective business partners had more respect for him and he made a better deal. Superficial, isn’t it? But the same thing is happening on European shores too.

According to a recent news report, many businesses are advising their staff, not on the car

they drive, but on their appearance in the workplace and telling them that a sharp look can help improve their career.

A famous Swiss bank has a 44-page dress-code document drafted up on everything from appropriate underwear to the importance of regular haircuts. While a wellknown accountancy firm

reminds new recruits of the importance of appearance, stressing that people make up their mind about them in just 30 seconds.

Research from a UK psychology professor clearly shows that what a person wears has a big impact on others’ impressions of them and on their subsequent career opportunities.

She says women whose work wear is ‘slightly provocative’ are judged to be less competent and therefore less likely to get promoted. While, a man in an off-the-shelf suit is judged as less successful and less flexible than his counterpart who wears a tailor-made suit.

As shallow as all this does appear, the unfortunate truth is that we live in a very imageobsessed world and how we present ourselves on the surface probably does drive other people’s opinions of us and our potential.

Ratings war FITCH Ratings placed Cataluña and the Institut Catala de Finances (ICF) on Rating Watch Negative (RWN). The ratings agency warned that as the region will probably need access to the regional liquidity fund (FLA) next year, its bonds would risk being downgraded to junk status without the national government’s support.

Make-up on the up SPAIN’S cosmetics sector had a €646 million turnover last year, 0.6 per cent more than in 2012 and an accumulated 13.36 per cent since 2006.

Andalucia spent €110 million last year on cosmetics, more than any other Spanish region while La Rioja, with an outlay of just €2 million spent the least.

Another look at water leaks Q. Since our original response a few weeks ago to the question of whether the Community or the owner is You and the responsible to pay for leaks and damage in water pipes, we Law in Spain have received two letters with varying stories. Both stories

By David Searl involve Communities of detached villas, where the individual water meters were moved from the properties to a central pumping station, with relatively long pipes to deliver the water.

A: In one case, an underground leak was discovered when the homeowners checked their bill as it had jumped to €4,000 instead of the usual €100. The leaking pipe runs under Community land and the Community paid for the repair.

However, the water company proved more difficult. In most court cases, the judge has ruled that there was no way for the owner to identify the underground leak so the company is partly responsible.

This decision generally leads to a

substantial reduction in the bill.

In the other case the owner protested to the water company, they made him a very large discount, but the Community refused to pay for the repair.

In principle the owner is responsible unless he can show the Community was at fault in some way. In this case, the pipe runs under an internal Community road, where the break occurred, so the owner has a fair chance at compensation.

OPINION & COMMENT

Adding fuel to the winter payment fire I FULLY agree with the Editor regarding the heating allowance.

Bus passes, television licences, rent and rates rebate should be abolished and pensioners should receive a liveable state pension.

As my late mother-in-law said: “I don’t need these payments, just give me a decent pension.”

Of course this would create redundancies in the civil service and local government, a cost the central government might wish to avoid.

Spain, they say, is a hot country so you don’t need the allowance.

How is it that the mountains are covered in snow in winter? Madrid isn’t exactly boiling hot in winter and neither is most of northern Spain. Who is kidding who?

Let us have our vote back and a reasonable pension. After all, we did pay taxes during our working lives so now let’s enjoy the benefits of our labours.

Robert Peake, Mijas Pueblo (Malaga)

Not viable THE winter fuel allowance is a nonsense and should end.

Pension credits are available for those who need them and other benefits exist.

The Editor’s conclusions are illogical: the UK may be a wealthy country but it can’t afford the drugs and health service that keep us alive until we can’t walk or talk. It then nurses us to an end that is unsatisfactory in quality of life and they pay us bigger pensions.

We are at a point where half the population work for money.

The other half, in education or retired, are supported by those working and supplemented by savings.

Pension schemes are based upon workers contributing but nearly half of workers’ pay is removed by taxes and national insurance. It is foolish economics and populist nonsense to say “Pensioners deserve better.”

Pensioners have to realise they have already had a chance to earn and save and many have huge assets in their possessions.

Motril Town Hall (Granada)

State pensions have to be a safety net, not a salary by right.

Sixty per cent of the world’s population is in dire poverty yet many of them put away up to 20 per cent in savings to help pay for schooling, health and care for their elderly family members.

Pampered western cultures have to cut back on quality of life, meaning excessive benefits, high tax, superb healthcare, generous infrastructure and help for all those in need.

Then they can afford to help others around the world who are vastly worse off although some economies are catching up.

We in Europe have about 5 per cent of the world’s population and 25 per cent of its wealth. That is changing fast and we shall have to tighten our belts for a long time yet.

nasty experiences on flights, some years ago four of us took a flight to Cyprus from Gatwick in London.

Twenty minutes into the flight, the captain announced that we had to return to Gatwick for technical reasons. As we came in to land we were followed by two fire engines either side!

The passengers remained absolutely quiet, without a titter.

We waited for five hours before we took off again but were told that our luggage would follow on another flight.

When we finally got it next day, the cases were slightly damp.

Something in one of the cases had clearly set off the sprinklers!

Lights out I AM writing in reference to the absolutely dreadful service we encounter all too often here in Spain.

Our community of 22 dwellings was left without electricity after a storm and as I didn’t have the community account information, which is kept by our administrators, I got the reply that Endesa were unable to help.

It took four phone calls, the last one from the electrician we often use, and six-and-a-half hours for Endesa to sort this problem out.

As the storms raged on we woke up to the same problem, although after only three phone calls and three hours waiting, the electricity came back on.

It was a very frustrating situation as Endesa seemed incapable of identifying where we were located and kept telling me

there was no problem. To say they were unhelpful would be an understatement: they simply didn’t appear to care that 22 houses were without electricity!

Ludo torture I READ with interest a story in the online edition of the Euro Weekly News. It described the indignation of a group of friends fined for playing ‘parchis’ in Malaga town square after midnight.

Well done, Local Police! I would like each of those doughty officers to receive a commendation if not a medal. This cut-throat version of ludo should be played in a soundproof room or preferably a padded cell. I also believe a fine of €101 each was far too lenient if, as Euro Weekly News revealed, they were playing for three hours.

No wonder there were complaints as these fanatics rattled their dice in that horrid little cup and scatter them noisily on the board until 2am.

In the days when I lived in a seafront apartment an entire summer was made unbearable by a family of Madrileños who spent all night, every night playing ‘parchis.’

I only wish I’d had the nerve to ring the police as the Malaga residents did.

They never learn MORE PEOPLE have been killed and massacred in the name of God due to organised religion than anything else.

It’s only logical true believers in a spiritual deity wouldn’t normally murder their fellow human beings although throughout history the same contradictory mistakes were repeated in order to benefit one religion or another.

All religions are organisations and structures conceived by human beings, with their intrinsic faults and defects.

Personally, I prefer the Golden Rule, which never fails: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”

Why is this simple Rule so difficult to apply and practice?

OPINION & COMMENT

Taking a lead from Saudi…

A

LTHOUGH all rather macabre, I did find the highly media covered re-enactment of the two alleged murders of the Thai backpackers, pretty riveting this week.

It was actually not the first time I had observed this practice of public demonstration by criminal perpetrators.

I remember on one occasion, while watching extremely boring Saudi Television, the programme was suddenly interrupted by a voice informing us that two Filipinos had confessed to the particularly vicious rape and murder of a Saudi man and wife. The scene then opened in the bedroom of the unfortunate victims.

The accused then proceeded to reenact the whole sordid series of events. At the close of the action the men, in full close-up, confessed to both murders. The following Friday, after prayers, they chopped off their heads in the market square. Job done.

These men bore no apparent marks or signs of any form of torture and frankly, in this latest incident, these two men would, in my opinion, need to have been under the direction of Carl Foreman and possess

Although she also admits ‘summer’ for her is usually January when she gets to take time off work and enjoy travelling: “I love Europe and capital cities like London and Paris and I’ve also been to Jamaica and Thailand.”

For Gary McCrow of the Beach House in Elviria, Malaga, his fondest memories are a little more up to date. He said: BEACH HOUSE “The best summer of my

life was the summer just gone, 2014, because I finally got to walk the love of my life closely followed by our three boys, three dogs, family and friends down the aisle, on the sunkissed sands of Elviria and in front of our beautiful restaurant.”

Clare Staunton of Awesome Global Events also doesn’t need to look back too far. She said: “The best summer has to be last summer. We were working with American R&B singer NeYo and spent eight days with him in Portugal before bringing him over to Marbella. Then we had a Chic concert, followed by a

1. The aircraft, a Boeing 777, disappeared from Secondary Radar at 01.20 on March 8 whilst on route to Peking.

2. At the time it was only the third total hull loss of this type of aircraft.

3. At the time the only previous fatal accident was at San Francisco when an Asiana aircraft hit the sea wall on final approach because the Korean pilot could not fly the aircraft manually.

4. The pilot, Captain Ahmad Shah who was a check and training Captain and First Officer Abdul Hamid did not request to fly together and was selected for the flight by a computerised rostering system. Their private lives could not be linked in any way thus dispelling any conspiracy between them.

AHMAD FAIZAL YAHYA / SHUTTERSTOCK.COM

FACTS

What happened to Malaysian Airlines flight MH370?

Aviation in and out of the box Independent Aerospace Consultant appollo@consultant.com Now living in the Costa del Sol, Geoff spent more than 40 years working in the aviation industry.

SCENARIOS Possibility 1.

Captain Shah was extremely upset that his close friend Anwar bin Ibrahim, leader of the opposition, had recently been jailed for five years for sodomony and wished to correct, what he saw, as gross injustice. He decided to take the plane over to do some dastardly deed with it, and to return to Malaysian airspace, after turning off the Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System, (ACARS), the Transponder, the Cockpit Voice Recorder, and the Digital Flight Data Recorder. He chose his moment, just prior to calling Ho Chi Min Flight Information Region (HCM FIR) having been told by Lumpur Flight Information Region that his flight had been handed over.

For seconds and often minutes you are in ‘no man’s land’ at this point.

When the aircraft turned back, it was tracked by Malaysian Armed Forces primary radar. At this point, Captain Shah attempted to negotiate the release of his friend and gave the authorities five hours to comply before crashing the aircraft into the

FLIGHT MH370: There have been many theories over what happened to the disappearance of this aircraft.

Indian Ocean.

No Malaysian military aircraft was scrambled and it was not until five hours later that Fl. MH370 was reported missing.

Deal breaker for this scenario.

1. The First Officer would not have left his seat at this point of the Sector. The work load can be quite high when establishing contact and entering a new FIR. The Captain would have to incapacitate the FO. 2. The Captain would never be sure just what the Malaysian Armed Forces would do to prevent his ‘hi-jacking.’

3. If I had been the Captain with fanatical political thoughts (and a Muslim of course) and negotiations failed I would not monotonously track over the Indian Ocean whilst passengers are trying to kick the cockpit door down; I

would have put the aircraft into that magnificent unique ornate railway station in Kuala Lumpur!

This scenario has just too many holes in it.

Possibility 2 This possibility has been banded about by conspiracy theorists and those who know nothing about the operation of large commercial aircraft.

The aircraft turned back towards KL (undisputed) then turned north west towards the ‘‘stans’ and landed in one of the airfields up there.

Deal breaker for this Scenario.

1. It takes about $250,000 worth of ground handling equipment to ensure a wide body aircraft can be ‘relaunched.’ An aircraft tug and tow bar cost me nearly $100,000 nearly 30

years ago! Fifty Taliban pushing on the landing gear just wouldn’t work.

2.

Where’s the passengers?

This is a non-starter.

Possibility 3 Prior to take off a fire started in the MEC located under the cockpit floor. This is home to to all communication equipment and the wire looms for the ‘black boxes.’

Unfortunately the crew emergency oxygen bottle is also located there.

There have been over 20 cases of fire in this area on this type of aircraft always starting on engine start up but usually detected before take off; none have been fatal but all caused extensive damage.

MH370 took off with a fire under the cockpit floor and was not detected by the crew.

Thirty minutes after take off the aircraft reached its cruise altitude (FL350), the fire was now serious and they probably began to smell it. The structure was weakened and with a pressure of 8.3 pounds per square inch on it, an explosive decompression occurred. This took out many avionic boxes including communications and destroyed the Crew Emergency Oxygen bottle. Aircraft can still fly with a relatively small hole blown in the side and ironically on depletion of cabin pressure there is a total depletion of oxygen thus immediately extinguishing the fire.

Now there is no oxygen to the crew (the passengers would have had eight-12 minutes with their emergency supply), the temperature inside the aircraft is minus 53 Centigrade, and the crew instinctively go

through their ‘total loss of cabin pressure’ well rehearsed routine.

Before being totally overcome by hypoxia they were able to give the Flight Management System a few commands that would have turned the aircraft back to Kuala Lumpur automatically.

These commands were neither totally correct or complete. Sadly the crew were soon brain dead; the aircraft never reached the lower life sustaining altitude and the cabin occupants sadly succumbed to the same fate. The aircraft then flew for approximately eight hours as a ghost flight over the Indian Ocean.

Deal breakers on this scenario There aren’t any!

The exact cause of the aircraft demise we know not. The lack of the whereabouts of the aircraft is due to the lack of action by the Malaysian Armed Forces on the night that an unidentified aircraft showed up on their Primary Radar screen.

A pair of interceptor fighters should have been immediately launched to investigate the ‘intruder.’

By viewing the aircraft a lot can be established and if it was a ‘ghost’ flight, then arrangements could be made to ‘hand over’ the visual surveillance to other countries viz.

Indonesia, Singapore and Australia until MH370 run out of fuel and ditched.

Who can you trust in a landscape of lies VISIONS OF AMERICA / SHUTTERSTOCK.COM

HO do you trust?

Politicians? Bankers? The police? Trust is now at an all time low for many, mainly due to those at the top who have let the rest of us down.

Indeed, it was recently suggested that all UK MPs should attend ‘honesty’ classes. And that’s the truth, honestly!

But let he who is without sin cast the first stone. After all, haven’t most of us been economical with the truth at some point? “Nice outfit” tends to work better than “you look a bit chubby in that.”

Not to mention: “That’s odd because you were definitely on the guest list!”

Or: “I’ve had a few problems with my email - must be the server!”

According to a recent study, 60 per cent of people lied at least once during a 10 minute conversation. Unsurprisingly, men lie differently from women, tending to lie ‘upwards’ (‘earn more,’ are ‘taller’)

BILL CLINTON: “I did not have sex with that woman.”

while women lie downwards (‘weigh less,’ slept with ‘fewer people,’ are ‘younger’).

And politicians? They’ve raised lying to an Olympic sport. Remember Chris Huhne’s speeding points? Or Bill Clinton’s “I did not have sexual relations

with that woman.”

Just why and how people lie - and the impact this has on others - is a subject that has always fascinated me and inspired my latest novel, Landscape of Lies (reviewed in this paper), a

harrowing story of suspense, secrets and revenge set in Derbyshire’s Peak District.

Step by step, a chilling crime thriller unfolds revealing a number of unforgettable protagonists (which of them can be trusted?) - one of whom may just be a ruthless killer...

Psychologists claim we lie to compensate for the gaps between who we are and who we want to be and between what we have and what we want to have.

Now, telling a white lie in order not to offend and paying an unreal compliment to give pleasure are both natural deceits adopted at an early age. In public and private life, white lies are part of our survival mechanism.

But when deception becomes a trusted person’s modus operandi, when deception becomes their default position, we should all be on our guard.

As the thought-provoking Landscape of Lies shows, lying - from everyday halftruths to outright deceit - undercuts all aspects of human life. And death...

LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) Some legal matters need your attention. That's not really what you want at this time of the year. A decision has to be made and it needs a fine balance.

Asking others may just confuse matters, so only seek expert advice. At the end of the day, you will know what is both best and acceptable. An attempt to bring romance into your life may be more successful than you think.

SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) A last-minute invitation turns out to be just the ticket in more ways than one. An invitation to join a holiday may be proffered. This is unusual, certainly, but keep an open mind. Your company is clearly well appreciated so why not make that a point of pride? Let's face it, who is best equipped to blow your trumpet?

SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) Someone you mistrust offers to add to your celebrations. Why not call a truce?

We both know that little long term will come out of it, but who cares?

Sometimes, it is better to share one good moment with someone than none at all.

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) As you are in the limelight, it comes as no surprise that admiration comes your way. What may surprise you, however, is the direction it comes from. Who would have thought that such a situation would arise?

AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) There is a wonderful enthusiasm about you at the moment. Seeing the reaction of others to you, it occurs that you should have taken this attitude before.

Therefore, make a resolution to put more energy into everything that you do.

PISCES (February 20 - March 20) Something new which you started in recent weeks becomes more than a passing interest. Although it may be surprising to you, it is owing to a predictable situation. In opening your mind, you also seem to have opened your heart. Many people do that at this time of the year and so you are not alone.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20) Being totally inspired this week, you could be tempted to let enthusiasm run away with you. It is a lovely feeling, like being a child again. Be sure to have fun, but do keep as much money in your pocket as possible.

danger you will cut yourself!

Seriously, though, try not to appear pompous over a certain matter. You may be right and you may be clever, but smarty pants are rarely popular.

Some of that sharpness gets things going for you in the love department, though.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) There will be a certain amount of discussion regarding holiday plans. You know what you want but how do you persuade others? It's quite easy really. All you have to do is to get someone else to suggest a certain place.

You then agree and it looks like their idea.

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, though, to let them think any bright ideas were theirs. Giving praise now will mean it coming back to you ten-fold. Be aware that a close friend is in a delicate frame of mind.

LEO (July 24 - August 23) A business partnership takes on a romantic tinge this week. It is possible that the other party sees this as more significant than you. To avoid problems later it would be best to let them do all the running. Unless, of course, you are determined to run yourself. With a lot of excitement in the air it is possible for you to show just what fun you can be. Enjoy!

VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) Your outgoing attitude is spot on.

Some may say you are a little crazy, the way you go for things. Each person has their own way and yours can be quite unique but that certainly does not make it wrong. People who make the world around us that little bit more colourful are gems.

Pets, vet nurses and trainee vets at HouseSitMatch

By Lamia Walker of HousesitMatch THERE are times when no matter how much you need a holiday you are loath to leave your pets. They may be poorly or on medication.

And you don’t want to leave them at the vet’s or in kennels over the holidays.

So what do you do?

Shirley found that as her dogs started to get older, especially after their 10th birthday, they began to show signs of illness typical of their breeds. Ginger the Cocker Spaniel suffered from bad canker in the ears, which needed daily cleaning, and Dilly the Labrador had developed diabetes, and needed daily insulin injections. Shirley wanted the right care for her dogs while she was on holiday but didn’t want to pay full professional fees for the three weeks of her

trip. A nurse at her local surgery in Malaga suggested HouseSitMatch. com used by friends from the UK. For them it offers an affordable holiday somewhere sunny like Spain, caring for pets in exchange for free accommodation.

Shirley registered for free describing the care needed for her dogs. Within two weeks she had come to an agreement with a vet nurse and her friend, a trainee vet, both are registered sitters on the network and both keen for a holiday in Spain. Another HouseSit Match!

Kiss of life for dying puppy A FIREMAN in Sagunto, Valencia, has been captured on film bringing a puppy back from the dead.

A video clip has been doing the rounds on social media channels since Wednesday, October 1.

The clip shows fireman Carlos Arana give mouth-tomouth resuscitation to a two-month-old Yorkshire Terrier puppy after rescuing it from a house fire in Sagunto.

As the video shows, Arana performed CPR for more than three minutes on the lifeless puppy, and after chest compressions and an oxygen mask failed to reanimate the little dog, Arana can be seen bringing the puppy round with the kiss of life.

The puppy was taken for further treatment at a local veterinary clinic, but later died from its injuries.

Even though this story does not have a happy ending, Carlos Arana is still being applauded across Facebook and Twitter for his efforts.

Who is that man?

Mike Walsh Mike, based in Mediterranean Spain, is an international journalist, author and professional writer.

www.euroweeklynews.com

WENTY-ONE-YEAR-OLD Mrs Parkhurst Duer was chatting with clerks when the door opened. As she looked from her desk a shabbily dressed, very dejected man entered the New York publishing house lobby and leaned against the counter near the door.

The clerk recalled: “I noticed he looked ill and weak. No one spoke to him. A clerk laughed and said: ‘Steve looks down and out.’

“Everyone laughed and the poor man saw them all laughing at him. It seemed to me my heart stood still, intuition perhaps, and I asked, who is that man?”

“Stephen Foster,” the clerk replied. “He is only a vagabond. Don’t go near him.”

The married clerk smiled. “Yes, I will go near him, that man needs a friend.”

She went on to write: “I was terribly shocked. Forcing back the tears I waited for that lump in the throat which prevents speech to clear away. I walked over to him, put out my hand, and asked: ‘Is this Mr Foster?’

“He took my hand and replied: ‘Yes, the wreck of Stephen Collins Foster.’

“Oh, no,” I answered: “Not a wreck, but whatever you call yourself I feel it an

honour to take by the hand the author of the Old Folks At Home. I am glad to know you.”

The warm-hearted young woman was as familiar with the ballads composed by Stephen Collins Foster as was America and indeed the world. “I heard he was living in New York, but had never known

anything about his life; yet his songs had created in me a feeling of reverence for the man and I longed to see him.”

Lovers of great melodies will be familiar with such whimsical ballads as Jeanie With The Light Brown Hair, Oh! Susanna and Old Folks At Home.

The most popular source of

entertainment were songs performed in theatres or when family and friends gathered around the piano in the bar or in their homes.

The ballads of this homeless vagrant brought a lump to throats from Alaska to Durban, New Zealand to Buenos Aires and United States. One hundred and fifty years on, Beautiful Dreamer and My Old Kentucky Home still evoke nostalgia.

Few know of the man and the tragedy behind these much loved songs.

Born into a comfortable and loving family the short life of Stephen Collins Foster (1826-1864) was a riches to rags story. This increases the poignancy of his death at the age of just 37.

When America’s most gifted songwriter died during a bitterly cold New York winter’s night he was sick, homeless; probably an alcoholic. In his pocket, when he died, were just 38 cents and words scribbled on a scrap of paper, ‘Dear Friends and Gentle Hearts.’ By this time he had composed over 175 songs.

“Ah music,” surmised French composer, Georges Bizet. “What a beautiful art, but what a wretched profession.”

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try, try again Viva Marbella With Nicole King of Mi Marbella radio HAVE you heard the story about the two salesmen from different shoe factories sent to a third world country to study the sales potential?

Both men spent several days evaluating the market and then submitted their reports. The first salesman confirmed: “There are no opportunities. No one wears shoes.” The second salesman confirmed: “There are infinite opportunities. No one wears shoes.”

Like me you might have thought that the smart salesman was the one who saw the prospect of a barefooted nation.

However, apparently this story is true, according to a librarian at the British Museum, who found a document, allegedly written by the daughter of one of those men, regarding what happened next.

SHOE SALES: Always put best foot forward.

Upon returning home, the first salesman was considered a hero for saving the company from a bad investment. He was promoted to oversee a new project in France selling ladies evening shoes, which was a

success, personally and professionally. He became one of the jet set and married a wealthy heiress, continuing to work for the company only for his love of the trade.

Based on the second

salesman’s report and a sales forecast of some 15,000 pairs of shoes for the first year, his company financed the set-up of offices, warehousing and a sales team to handle the forecasted business.

But sales didn’t reach 100 pairs; no one wanted shoes and the second salesman had to persuade his boss not to give up on the project, which was now threatening the company’s financial stability as a result.

He realised he’d been wrong, but did he give up? No. He continued to send positive messages back to head office and started analysing what he’d learnt.

He understood that some of the locals liked his shoes and would like to better protect their feet but found the shoes constricting and impractical in the sand. He imported a small quantity of sandals.

He also realised that many of the locals would never wear shoes so he sourced a cream to toughen up and protect the soles of their feet. Firstly in small

quantities but in no time he couldn’t keep up with the demand.

However, his biggest sellers turned out to be sun hats and walking sticks. All the locals, shod or otherwise, walked vast distances every day and they all wanted the relief of shade and support on their journey.

It took our persevering second salesman seven years to make his market a success and become a millionaire in the process. Shoes were never his best seller; he had had to adapt.

For me the moral of this story is that sometimes things are easy and sometimes they’re not, but either way we just have to put our best foot forward!

Nature can provide many ideas for some different garden designs

Dick Handscombe

Gardening Corner

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

T

wo weeks ago I spent a week sitting on a delightful section of the River Ebro fishing and thinking up ideas for future articles and books as well as catching 50 plus plump fish.

As you can see from the photograph, the scenery along the river bank and to distant mountains were both very relaxing and stimulating.

During 70 hours of fishing the scenery, especially the river and bank immediately in front of me, stimulated numerous ideas for my garden and those of friends and also for future articles. Being on a private estate there was no disturbance from other fishermen or walkers, and very little from boats. If you are a fisherman find out more about the location, facilities and costs by searching the www.ebro website sportingadventures.com or by calling Stephen on (0034) 658 364 299.

This English speaking family business can also arrange hunting days and weekends from quail to stags.

So the week was a great time to relax and reflect even on the couple of rainy days.

RIVER EBRO: As well as fishing, stimulated many ideas for my garden.

for copying and adapting.

2.

Group plants, different colours of flowers, leaves and barks, rocks and water features in creative ways for interest and easy maintenance.

3. Hide all eyesores beyond the fence with walls, hedges, trees and climbers.

4. In beds blend in, in the style of ancient hedgerows, woodlands or even jungles, ground cover and climbing plants, shrubs and trees, groups of rocks and stone chippings, and fountains and ponds.

5. Make features of different coloured barks and leaves.

6. Create interesting garden sounds. Not just from birds or wind chimes, but also from rustling leaves, groaning branches and popping seed pods plus water features.

7. Create interesting reflection and sun and shadow effects. If you decide to avoid water

features under-plant or plant in front of tall shrubs and trees areas of low growing plants with varying colours of leaves and flowers to great artificial but natural alternatives to colourful reflections.

8. Attract interesting and safe native wildlife

such as butterflies, birds, lizards, geckoes, glow worms, frogs, toads, and hedgehogs.

9. Create a balance of sunny and shady areas.

10. Build in a balance of essential resting, active, eating and working areas.

Walk and talk gardening

Dick Handscombe is leading a three hour easy scenic walk, eight kilometres in length, for Costa Blanca Mountain Walkers on Saturday October 11 starting at the Font in La Drova, 12 kilometres inland from Gandia on the CV675, at 10.30.

Inevitably it will turn into a walk and talk gardening morning and there is the possibility of lunch afterwards for

those interested. All readers are welcome.

The following new book might interest you Dick’s new book ‘Auditing and improving company cultures’ has been recently published via Amazon Books.

It is mentioned here as many gardeners, especially those that grow their own ecological vegetables, fruit and medicinal herbs, are well aware of the way in which the products and practices of both local and multinational gardening, horticultural, agricultural, food product and medicinal product companies are increasingly questioned.

In some cases EWN readers are also involved in such industries.

‘People are looking for someone reliable who is here today and not gone tomorrow!’

Stoptober is here and it’s time to stop … again?

IF you are finding it tough to stop smoking then don’t worry you are quite normal.

Nicotine is as addictive as heroin and so it’s really not that easy without help.

I know because until I had Bioresonance therapy I’d given up LOADS of times.

Bioresonance therapy actually removes the addiction rather than replacing it.

Effectively cancelling the nicotine charge over the body so that you suffer no cravings and that’s why it has a 90 per cent success rate and why it becomes so easy to stop.

To help those of you that are struggling, I am offering you a €25 discount voucher for the

whole of Stoptober along with an extra 10 per cent discount for two or more persons. After all, it’s even easier in a group.

So instead of it costing the normal €145 per person it’s €125 for individuals or just €112 each for two or more so just think of the money you’re going to save. Call me on 649 123 238 or email me moreinfo@stopsmokinginspain. com and I’ll be happy to discuss the therapy with you and make an appointment if you would like to try it. You won’t regret it I promise! You can also visit the very informative website. www.stopsmokinginspain.com Carol Bioresonance Therapist

STOP SMOKING: Bioresonance therapy removes the addiction rather than replacing it.

Here are a couple of recent testimonials. I have thousands more as I have around a 90 per cent success rate because I remove the addiction rather than replace it.

Hi Carol, I haven’t now smoked since the treatment. The big test for me was on Friday night when I went out and drank alcohol… I got very drunk and didn’t smoke!! Great I am very happy…thank you, I will recommend you to many friends who want to stop smoking…

James Dear Carol I am letting you know that I have NOT had a cigarette since my therapy with you on August 30 and I feel great and look much better. My girlfriend’s cigarettes don’t bother me any more and I am confident that I will never smoke again!

Thanks so much. Best wishes Miranda

Payback time in Cataluña N

OTHING is happening in Cataluña that wasn’t expected.

It’s all illegal: the law passed by the Catalan parliament to enable the November 9 independence ballot is illegal and so was the subsequent ballot announcement.

Spain’s ultimate court, the Constitutional Tribunal has said so; Spain’s State Council said so and so has Spain’s president Mariano Rajoy.

Cataluña’s pro-independence faction forged ahead despite knowing what was going to happen. It looks suspiciously as though they were inviting the November 9 veto to underline Cataluña’s martyrdom at the hands of the rest of Spain.

Not all Catalans are separatists and not all are anti-Spanish but a large proportion of them are anti-Spanish government.

Given the chance to vote on November 9 many of the pro-independence votes would be punishment votes, just as David Cameron feared before the Scottish ballot.

“Don’t vote ‘yes’ just to give the effing Tories a kicking,” he pleaded beforehand.

Cassandra Nash

A weekly look

- and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene

Mariano Rajoy would be incapable of saying anything similar although there is every likelihood that many Catalans would prefer kicking him to independence.

Always the bridesmaid, never the bride WAS Alberto Ruiz-Gallardon, Spain’s former Justice minister handed a poisoned chalice?

Formerly popular Ruiz-Gallardon never lost an election; he was Madrid’s regional president during three terms and mayor of Madrid for another two.

He was always ambitious and always wanted the Big One, as Mariano Rajoy was well aware, keeping him out of national politics for as long as possible.

Naming him Justice minister in 2011 was logical, but giving him abortion

reform, which should have been a Health ministry responsibility, was not.

Mariano Rajoy knew every step of the way the direction that the new Bill was taking and possibly misjudged popular feeling regarding abortion. The law was obviously withdrawn as a vote-loser but that withdrawal also facilitated RuizGallardon’s downfall and exit. Two birds, one stone.

Fine piece of China RUIZ-GALLARDON’S Universal Justice law was also unpopular for ruffling the feelings of Spanish judges by curtailing their right to pursue Human Rights cases outside Spain.

One such case, now abandoned, was an attempt by high court judge Ismael Moreno to prosecute China’s former president and prime minister about the part both men played in genocide in Tibet.

Beijing reacted by threatening trade reprisals and the chastened Spanish government hurriedly reacted by bringing in the Universal Justice law.

Mariano Rajoy recently returned from China having signed agreements worth €3.15 billion: mission accomplished.

Get the record straight CATALUÑA’S former president Jordi Pujol recently addressed the regional parliament to explain why he salted away an undeclared multimillion inheritance from his father in foreign tax havens.

Conceding that this was worthy of criticism, the 84year-old who was Cataluña’s president for 23 years, claimed that he was never a corrupt politician.

But no-one was asking about politics and there is nothing more incriminating than making excuses for something you’re not accused of.

Power station woes THE opposition political party Gibraltar Social Democrats (GSD) has said that residents are growing tired of the power cuts blighting the peninsula.

It attacked the government, criticising its management of the project for the new power station.

The government had laid the blame for The Rock’s current power situation firmly at the feet of the opposition, who have retorted by saying the citizens and businesses on Gibraltar will see through the accusations.

Property Costa del Sol: from Torremolinos to Calahonda PROPERTY COSTA DEL SOL is an estate agent that specialises in buying and selling property in the area between Torremolinos and Calahonda providing excellent service to clients.

“We actually opened at the beginning of the recession in Spain, seven years ago. I was confident that the business would succeed because I had a lot of contacts and interest mainly from Danish companies that buy property for their employees, and that was a great help to start with,” said Soren Roschier, owner of Property Costa del Sol. “We still have a large Scandinavian clientele, but since we opened, we have welcomed customers mainly from the UK, Germany, Holland and Belgium as well,” he added.

At Property Costa del Sol, covering the whole of the Costa del Sol has never been their aim. “We focus on an area that we know very well, from Torremolinos to Calahonda and Elviria. Our Scandinavian customers love that stretch of the coast, especially the Fuengirola area,” Soren explained.

Their portfolio of properties is updated

regularly on their website. “Clients who are looking at our website can rest assured that not only is it up-to-date, but it shows properties that we are dealing with directly.

Clients will not be directed to other sites,” Soren said.

When asked about the ideal features that a property should have, according to their customers, Soren Roschier said: “At the moment it is apartments within walking distance of amenities including the beach costing in the region of €300,000.”

At Property Costa del Sol, they have a wide range of properties that meet that criteria.

Working with a team of five people and fluent in Spanish, English, German and Danish, Property Costa del Sol prides itself on the service they offer. “It is the reason why we have survived the recession and also it is what makes us stand out from the crowd,” said Soren.

BARGAIN MANSION - Priced To Sell at €1million Bought By Owner For €1.5million

MARBESA MANSION: Just a gentle stroll to some of the best beaches in the Marbella area.

The veranda looks across the manicured gardens and large pool, towards the vast Mediterranean beyond. A grand double staircase leads down to the large pool and lawn, surrounded by well tended, established plants and mature trees.

The living room has an impressive built-in fireplace with marble surround, providing warmth throughout the winter.

To the left of the dining area is the fully fitted kitchen with granite worktops, with views

towards the pool and gardens. A large utility room with storage lies beyond. A guest cloak room is also on this floor.

The first of the bedrooms in this large property is found on this floor, complete with spacious en suite shower-room and double sinks. Built-in wardrobes provide ample storage. Ascending the galleried staircase takes you to the upper hallway.

To the right is the master bedroom complete with built in wardrobes as part

of a separate dressing area, and a large en suite bathroom, with corner Jacuzzi bathtub, separate shower, double sinks and W.C. To the left of the hallway is another huge bedroom with en suite bathroom. Both bedrooms have sliding patio doors leading to what is currently an 80m2 ‘entertainment area,’ with removable glass windows, ideal for keeping the heat in during the winter (thanks to the large woodburning stove) and allowing in the gentle sea

breezes during the summer. This spacious room has uninterrupted, panoramic views of the coast and makes an ideal space for entertaining.

Currently housing a pool table, dart board and fully fitted bar, this is the ideal ‘party room’! Descending the stairs once more, down to the garden level of the property and you will find a sauna and gymnasium, along with parking for three-four cars. In addition, a separate entrance on this level takes you to yet more

living space, with views of the grounds - a large double bedroom, with plenty of storage space and an adjacent shower room.

For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive.

Honda’s urban SUV HONDA has revealed its new urban SUV for Europe, which made its world premiere at the 2014 Mondial de l’Automobile in Paris.

The HR-V is Honda’s new entry into Europe’s fast-growing small SUV segment.

The unique exterior design of the new HR-V prototype echoes that of a coupé, with sharp, dynamic lines that link the sleek upper body with the stable and planted lower body.

121

This coupé-esque elegance is achieved without compromising the interior practicality of the car.

The front wheel drive HR-V, can be powered by either the lightweight 1.6-litre i-DTEC diesel or a 1.5-litre i-VTEC gasoline, both from Honda’s Earth Dreams Technology series. Honda’s new European HR-V is scheduled to go on sale across Europe during the summer of 2015.

Unique in the motoring world: three plug-in hybrid models from Porsche THE new Porsche Cayenne S EHybrid1 has celebrated its world premiere. It is the first plug-in hybrid in the premium SUV segment and it now, claims the manufacturer, sets the standards among luxury allwheel-drive vehicles. At the same time, it makes Porsche the leading manufacturer of plug-in hybrid cars. Together with the Panamera S E-Hybrid2 and the 918 Spyder3 it is the only brand to offer three plug-in models.

Besides the Cayenne S EHybrid Porsche is also presenting updated models of the Cayenne S, Cayenne Turbo, Cayenne Diesel and Cayenne S Diesel in Paris. Their main features are increased efficiency, even more precise handling, a more streamlined design and even more extensive standard equipment.

Thanks to plug-in hybrid technology the Cayenne S E-

Porsche Cayenne S EHybrid celebrates world premiere in Paris.

Hybrid has a fuel economy of only 3.4 litres per 100 kilometres and CO2 emissions of a mere 79 grams per kilometre.

These are top values overall, especially for an all-wheel-drive car. Market reaction to the models with the advanced drive concept was accordingly positive: in the first eight months of 2014, Porsche delivered a total of 16,698 units of the Panamera of which 1,513 were Panamera S E-Hybrid models – a share of 9 per cent.

Porsche is also expecting very high sales figures for the Cayenne S E-Hybrid.

The Cayenne S E-Hybrid was presented to the world public for the first time at the Porsche press conference in Hall 4 at the Paris motor show on October 2.

Lewis ‘rains’ in wet Japan as unbeaten Chelsea roar on Tony Matthews

International Sports A former football player and the world’s most prolific author of football books (more than 100 published), Tony is also the sports reporter for Spectrum Radio and lives in the Cabrera mountains.

Costa de Almeria

START with Formula 1...

And Lewis Hamilton claimed his eighth victory of the year by winning Sunday’s Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka. In atrocious conditions (rain, rain and more rain) Hamilton produced one of his greatest drives ever to finish ahead of Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg with Sebastian Vettel third.

Hamilton is 10 points clear of Rosberg in the drivers’ championship with four GPs remaining.

Unfortunately Hamilton’s victory

celebrations were subdued following an accident involving Marussia’s French driver Jules Bianchi (25) who was taken to hospital, unconscious, after crashing into a recovery vehicle.

Earlier, on the same track, Dutchman Max Verstappen (17) became the youngest ever F1 driver, taking charge of a Toro Rosso car in the first practice session. And here’s a fact - no-one can hold a full driving licence in Holland until they’re 18.

And former Italian F1 driver Andrea De Cesaris (55) has been killed in a motorbike accident in Rome.

LEWIS HAMILTON: Claimed his eighth victory in Japanese Grand Prix.

In the Premiership last weekend, leaders Chelsea beat Arsenal 20; Aston Villa lost 2-0 to reigning champions Manchester City 2; Hull clipped Crystal Palace 20; Liverpool edged out WBA 2-1; Manchester United defeated Everton, also 2-1; Sunderland licked Stoke 3-1; Tottenham beat Southampton 1-0 and

West Ham eased past QPR 2-0. The games between SwanseaNewcastle and Leicester-Burnley ended in 2-2 draws.

There were Championship wins for Blackpool (at last), Bournemouth (at bottom club Bolton), Brentford and Middlesbrough. Norwich (1-1 with Rotherham) still head the Division.

In League One, leaders Bristol City drew 1-1 at Walsall while inform Swindon (second) won 2-1 at Leyton Orient.

Here in Spain, Lionel Messi netted again, lobbing home Barcelona’s in a 2-0 win over nine-man Rayo Vallecano.

The Argentinian is now on 249 La Liga goals, two behind Telmo Zarra’s record of 251, set 60 years ago. Reigning champions Atletico Madrid lost 3-1 at Valencia, Real Madrid thumped Bilbao 5-0, Almeria and Elche drew 2-2, Sevilla beat La Coruna 4-1 and Malaga defeated Granada 2-1.

There are no PL/Championship matches this weekend due to the Euro 2016

qualifiers, but there are full programmes in Leagues 1 and 2 with Bristol City-Chesterfield, Swindon PNE, Wimbledon Bury, Morecambe - Wycombe and NorthamptonBurton the pick of the matches.

Swansea’s Jonjo Shelvey and Southampton’s Nathaniel Clyne are in England’s squad for the EQC qualifiers against San Marino (tonight) and Estonia (Sunday).

Rugby League’s Super Grand final will feature St Helens against Wigan Warriors. Saints beat Catalan Dragons and Wigan defeated Warrington in the semis.

My selection Treve, trained by Criquette Head-Maarek, won Sunday’s Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe. The first horse since Alleged in 1978 to win Europe’s richest race in successive years, Treve looked crippled six months ago and victory represents one of the greatest training achievements of alltime.

Novak Djokovic, conqueror of Andy Murray in the semis,

won the China Open, beating Tomas Berdych in the final. Maria Sharapova took the women’s title.

Sebastian Vettel will drive for Ferrari (not Red Bull) next year, while Fernando Alonso will replace Jenson Button at McLaren. And there could be more changes in due courses!
