By John Smith ALTHOUGH it is true to say that there are some tremendous galleries in both Madrid and Barcelona, there is still plenty to discover across the length and breadth of Spain. Malaga, in the south, can boast the Picasso Museum, which contains almost 300 examples of his works. Smaller than its big brother in Barcelona, it still offers a great deal to interest any lover of the artist. Sevilla boasts the Museum of Fine Art, which has a range of material from the Middle Ages to the 20th century and is housed in a piece of

Apart from its permanent exhibits, the museum hosts regular exhibitions of artists both from Spain and from across Europe.

French fugitives found on Costa IN A joint operation with French police, Spain’s National Police caught four fugitives who were hiding out on the Costa del Sol after kidnapping a businessman and holding him for almost two months.
The gang, who travelled to Spain with the businessman after allegedly kidnapping him in Southern France, spent time at the man’s property in Platja d’Aro (Girona) where they kept him chained up in the basement
and forced him to hand over bank details, open new accounts and purchase a million euros worth of gold. Eventually the group moved south to San Pedro de Alcantara, where the businessman
was eventually released on July 13, and persuaded not to inform the authorities and to pay his captors €100,000 per week. Special Operations Police Team (GEO) stopped things getting out of hand during a
raid on the flat where the gang were hiding out as officers managed to arrest one of them before he had time to grab a gun hidden under his bed. Gold, cash and other valuable items were recovered.
MIJAS Fair passed off without incident, the local authorities have announced, although police officers, firefighters and more than 20 Civil Protection volunteers were on duty constantly during the week to keep everyone safe.

SAFE ARRIVAL: Refugees land at Malaga Port from an immigration centre in Melilla. By Eleanor Hawkins ABOUT 200 Syrians, Palestinians and Moroccans arrived in Malaga Port last week from the Temporary Stay Centre for Immigrants (CETI) in Melilla. Their arrival, a habitual occurrence in Malaga, is part of an initial reception programme the Spanish government has been running for years in col-
laboration with charities including the Red Cross, the Spanish Catholic Migration Commission Association (Accem) and the Spanish Refugee Aid Committee (CEAR). The Red Cross has taken in 110 of the new arrivals. Almost all are asylum seekers, the Red Cross reported. They have, therefore, been taken to Red Cross shelters
spread across Andalucia. Government delegate for Andalucia Antonio Sanz stressed that the group was brought to the mainland under the aforementioned scheme and had nothing to do with Spain’s quota of Syrian refugees as, so far, there were no official numbers for each separate region. Sanz explained that arrivals of this type are not unusual in
Malaga, in fact the scheme sees groups arrive about once a week. The delegate took the time to ask all local authorities and organisations to work together to meet the important humanitarian challenge Andalucia and Spain will soon be facing to take in Syrian refugees and called for co-ordination and generosity.

Young homophobics REJECTION levels were three times higher in boys than girls
REJECTED: Boys would ditch a friend if he was found to be gay. By Eleanor Hawkins SIXTY per cent of 13-year-old boys in Malaga Province say they would end a friendship with another boy if they discovered he was gay, a new study has revealed. The study, entitled Homophobia Amongst Teenagers, was led by Malaga University student and psychologist Giselle Bolaño and presented at the regional Andalucian Rainbow
Federation headquarters in Malaga. Altogether 751 public secondary school students aged between 12 and 18 were questioned before visits from federation representatives as part of a homophobiarelated anti-bullying campaign and a marked difference in attitude between sexes was noted. Sex, federation president Gonzalo Serrano said, has proved to play an important part in students’ attitudes with half of males
questioned still believing they would always be able to identify homosexuals by their looks, manner of speech or profession. In fact, rejection levels amongst boys were reported to be three times higher than amongst girls, especially at the age of 13. While 60 per cent of boys this age said they would end a friendship if the other person was found to be gay, only 23 per cent of girls said they would do the same.

A champion of animal welfare Our Euro Women series is featuring women who have made a success of their lives in Spain. These outstanding ladies have been shattering glass ceilings whether in business, charity work or sports. Stacey Lloyd Dolphin has raised awareness of animal charities. THE first thing that draws your attention to Stacey Lloyd Dolphin is her bright blue eyes, that have probably been her biggest asset when dealing with sick and homeless animals. Stacey is well known here in Spain and also Europe, where she works alongside animal organisations to re-home dogs and cats. She first arrived in Spain in the early 1990s, when she and her husband Tim sailed their boat over from the Dorset coast. The plan was to visit Spain for the summer and then head off to the Canary Islands for the winter in their boat, The Dolphin, and enjoy a life on the waves moving from port to port. However, they fell in love with the Costa del Sol, and observing the high influx of tourists around Fuengirola Port, decided to stay and offer pleasure trips on The Dolphin. Stacey worked hard in order to get the boat registered and insured to enable them to do this, which became a major chore, as there was no other boat operating pleasure trips in the area. Through much determination and lots of pesetas feeding the local call box, her hard work paid off. She managed to obtain the correct licences to offer the very first pleasure-boat trips to set sail from the port in Fuengirola. Business was booming and The Dolphin was soon leading the waves, as others set up more boating trips to do the same. Then Stacey received some bad news from the UK. Her dad had died and so she had to return to the UK to comfort her mother and make all the necessary arrangements.
TIRELESS ORGANISER: Stacey works hard to arrange social gatherings, raffles and sponsored activities to raise funds.
Her tenacity reaps rewards By Wendy Ann Cowham
Stacey has used her experience to set up 4 Paws, a charity which also saves animals on death row As Stacey cleared the house of her father’s belongings, she gave items to a local animal charity, which used funds raised to re-home and spay strays. She knew then that she could do the same for the very few organisations that were operating in Spain. Stacey had seen many communities inundated with sick and abandoned animals. Upon her return to Spain, Stacey immediately began to put projects in place to raise funds to help the few animal charities that were operating here. She also negotiated with local vets to arrange for the necessary injections, operations and neutering of the strays. Using her organisational skills Stacey arranged social gatherings, raffles, and sponsored activities, which accelerated funds coming in. A scheduled programme

Book or TV: Book, time permitting Favourite title: Any dog manual Strengths: Organisation, tenacity Weakness: Can’t say no Greatest success: Increasing animal adoptions What irritates you about people: Unreliability for feeding, capturing, neutering and vaccinating stray animals was soon operating effectively, and the local communities saw
a vast improvement. Before too long, Stacey wanted to expand and take the project even further, and
with networking, she had built up an excellent relationship with various venues which could host bigger and better events. After meeting with the owner of the Caribbean Bar, Carvajal, and a brainstorming session with him, the obvious solution was to arrange a New Year’s Day Swim; it was the perfect location to do something big. This was to be a major fundraising event that would spiral into an annual tradition. It is now a decade since the New Year’s Day Swim was born back in 2005, with only 15 swimmers and supporters coming to cheer them on. Every year the number of swimmers and sponsorship grew and each year the day raised an average of €5,000, one year peaking at a grand total of €7,000. These funds have gone towards programmes which enable the animals to be sent to other European countries, mainly Finland, to be adopted and find their forever homes. Stacey has since set up her own charity, 4 Paws, which also saves animals on death row at shelters, and finds owners to care for them. She is the first up in the morning, and last to bed at night, dedicating herself to feeding programmes and airport trips in between all the events she is organising. Stacey has made a massive difference to many animal charities with her continued hard work and energy.

Although waiting lists are a general problem nationwide, Malaga Province is one of the worst affected by summer setbacks and cutbacks by both the central and regional governments, doctors complain. Old hand within the health system Jose Maria de la Rosa, Satse delegate at Carlos Haya hospital in Malaga city, predicted that the coming months would be tough on hospital staff, who will be forced to try and make up for what hasn’t been done in July and August as holiday leave was not covered by temporary staff. Meanwhile, Juan Miguel Contioso, provincial UGT union secretary, said: “This autumn will be cold, very cold, for Malaga’s public health system. The only heat will come from annoyed patients and the situation could blow up at any time. The Andalucian Health System’s (SAS) staff reduction policy is causing people a lot of harm.”
UNDER PRESSURE: Autumn will be a tough time for hospital staff.
Police officers are having to wait for overtime payments MARBELLA’S Local Police force officers have asked the council to add pay for overtime worked in July and August to their next paycheck,
the CSIF union has reported. Overtime payment, the union complained, is later this year than in former years. CSIF has also demanded
that the new council team meets pre-election promises regarding officers’ rights, which included changes to working hours.

EWN became more than a job, it became a way of life which I have enjoyed immensely. Clients became my friends, and I was privileged to enjoy countless social occasions with so many nice people that I met through work.

ROAD ACCIDENTS: Ninety five per cent occur in good weather conditions.
National report on road safety in Spain (DGT)
Driving examiners go on strike in Malaga ALL 25 of Malaga City’s driving examiners on duty on Monday (September 14) joined in a national three hour strike called by their trade union to demand better working conditions. The strike, called all over the country for examiners and
DGT traffic authority workers, left around 150 learners in Malaga unable to take their driving exams. Examiners are calling for a change in the rules regarding when results are given as they report feeling unsafe at times when forced to fail learners on
the spot, and they have also requested reductions to their workload. Manuel Augusto Fernandez, head of the strike committee, said if the traffic authority does not take note of their requests they will be forced to hold a complete day-long strike.
Patients still waiting for promised hospital AN estimated 105,000 people from 14 towns and villages in the Guadalhorce Valley are still waiting for the Chare hospital to open to avoid them having to travel to Malaga City for treatment. Although rumour has it there is no money to equip and staff the hospital, the official version is that agreements are pending between the Junta de Andalucia regional government and Cartama Council
regarding electrical supply and access roads. Due to employ about 300 people, the centre will provide service to people from Alhaurin el Grande, Alhaurin de la Torre, Alora, Alozaina, Ardales, Carratraca, Cartama, Casarabonela, Coin, Guaro, Monda, Pizarra, Tolox and Yunquera and is due to be opened gradually, although so far there are still no official dates.
BETWEEN 2003 and 2007 over 316,600 motorbikes over 500cc were licensed in Spain. According to Spanish statistics, motorbike riders are 17 times more likely to be injured in a road traffic accident than car drivers. In order to understand and then reduce the number of motorbike accidents, the DGT (Spanish equivalent of the DLVC) has produced a report on road traffic safety. Here we bring you the main conclusions of why these accidents occur. WHEN DO ACCIDENTS OCCUR? Nearly 30 per cent of urban motorbike and scooter accidents happen at the weekend and the percentage of accidents resulting in death increases to 42 per cent. The highest rate occurs between 06.00h and 20.00h. OTHER VEHICLES INVOLVED Eight one per cent of motorbike accidents involve at least one other vehicle, although the mortality rate decreases slightly when another vehicle is involved. Seventy per cent of accidents result from collisions between bikes and other vehicles. In urban areas, three out of four accidents involving bikes, also involve another vehicle. WHY DO ACCIDENTS HAPPEN? Five factoring conditions have been taken
into consideration; traffic, road surface, atmospheric, human and accident type. In urban areas, the injury increases by 31 per cent in faster moving traffic. This means that 97 per cent of mortalities occur in fluid traffic. Ninety five per cent of accidents occur during good weather conditions. This also implies fewer motorbikes and scooters drive in bad weather. Statistically, the conditions of the road do not significantly affect the level of accidents. THE HUMAN FACTOR In urban areas, alcohol, and drugs increase the injury level by 170 per cent, whilst speed increases the level by 370 per cent. The report estimates that almost a third of accidents involving motorbikes and other four wheeled vehicles result from the motorbike not being seen by the driver of the car. Forty per cent of accidents in urban areas involve head-on or side collisions between bikes and cars. KEY FINDINGS OF THE REPORT In urban areas, accidents occur at intersections involving traffic lights and roundabouts. On roads, the majority of accidents happen when overtaking on dual carriageways and normal roads, at exits and entries, and at intersections involving stop signs and give way.

Sewage plant at ‘L problem for resid DESPITE company stating that the problems had been resolved, By Eleanor Hawkins DESPITE financial assistance from the EU and a spend of over €8 million, residents in the Santa Maria and La Alqueria areas still have plenty to complain about with regards to smell, toxicity and noise coming from the La Víbora sewage plant on the outskirts of Marbella.

IN a statement issued by USCA - the union for air traffic controllers - on September 10, it was revealed that the second runway at Malaga airport, opened for use in 2012 was used less than one per cent of the time in 2014 and they forecast the same for 2015. They suggest that this lack of use causes economic losses for the airport and delays passen-
gers, citing the fact that on September 7, during the extremely bad weather, the second runway remained closed and a number of flights were diverted to Granada and Sevilla. Often, air traffic controllers have been blamed for delays, but the union notes that more and more passengers are now using the airport, so with only one runway in operation they often have to stack incoming planes and outgoing aircraft of-
ten have long waits on the tarmac before takeoff. The runway has been used more extensively in the past but there appears to be no plan in place to cover the situation if the main runway is closed now. Last year on October 25 a problem led to the closure of the main runway and rather than open the second runway, many flights were diverted to other Spanish airports whilst others experienced long delays.

Council blocks bank accounts FAMILIES were shocked to find accounts frozen By Eleanor Hawkins AN estimated 500 people on benefits were shocked last week to find the council had frozen their bank accounts over unpaid fines. Unfortunately for the families who rely on the dole or other benefits to get by, the council sent out a batch of 14,200 em-
bargo orders for unpaid fines totalling €15.7 million at the beginning of the month, when benefits were due to be paid in. When an order comes in, if there are sufficient funds to pay the fine the money is automatically taken from the bank account, and if not regular income is frozen even though by law benefits amounting to less than
the minimum wage, set this year at €648, can’t be blocked. As hundreds went through the tedious process of proving their benefits were their only income to have the blocks removed, security guards and staff at the collection offices tried to keep up and explained that all should be resolved within a few days.

British Airways leading the way TEXT book handling of a very serious aircraft emergency was carried out by the airline’s professional staff By Steve Walsh FOLLOWING the serious incident on September 8, where BA Flight 2276 caught fire whilst taking off from Las Vegas (McCarran International Airport) for Gatwick, the EWN spoke to aviation aficionado Geoff Jones who investigated the day’s events. He said, “At about 100mph into the takeoff on runway 07L, there was a loud bang and a fire broke out on the left hand engine. Captain Chris Henkey immediately aborted the takeoff and told the tower he had an engine fire. “A few seconds later he called Mayday, Mayday and told the tower he was evacuating his passengers on the runway and requested fire services. The quick thinking female controller informed the Captain the fire services were already on their way. She had seen the severity of the fire prior to his request and “pressed the button.” “Listening to the Air Traffic Control transmission tapes during the emergency, I was so impressed with the professionalism shown by the Captain and especially

by the female tower frequency controller on shift; the way she dealt with all her other aircraft, some close to landing, and also the aircraft behind the BA 2276 waiting to take off, was just exemplary. “I have spoken to and listened to 100s of ATC controllers, this lady was unbelievable. It was the cockpit crew, the cabin crew of BA2276 and the shift in the McCarran Tower, that afternoon, especially the lady on tower frequency that saved the lives of the 172 people onboard. It was all over in slightly over two minutes. “The number one engine had an uncontained catastrophic failure causing fire and severe structural damage to the aircraft. The aircraft is a total insurance loss. “I would like to point out that had the engine failed about 15 to 20 seconds later the aircraft would have been in the “must go” mode and as such the crew would have had to take off. This failure would have made the aircraft unflyable and would have crashed with total loss of life. “It is this type of professionalism that makes BA one of the three best airlines in the world.”

IN HARMONY: Bees help to pollinate flowers and fruit.
Permaculture specialists practise what they preach DESIGN COURSE will be carbon-neutral By John Smith THE organisers of the Permaculture Design Course to be held at the Arboretum Marbella from October 9 to 22 have announced that it will be CO2 Neutral. The concept of permaculture was first introduced by the Australian Professor and Ecologist Bill Mollison in the 1970s. As wildlife biologist he was upset about the breakdown of the natural environment and decided that something positive needed to be done about it. By observing nature he came to the conclusion that natural systems, such as forests and wetlands, are self-sustain-
able. They can provide their own energy needs and recycle their wastes. He also saw that different parts of a natural ecosystem can work together in harmony. Each part of the system performs individual and important tasks. Bees help to pollinate flowers and fruit, birds provide pest control, some plants pull nitrogen out of the air and return it in a way that other plants can use. Students travelling to the event will be responsible for their own carbon emissions and those produced by the event itself will be offset by the planting of native species of trees, plants and shrubs within the ecological park.
It is now possible to calculate the carbon footprint for any event and it is particularly appropriate that charities like Arboretum Marbella not only encourage others to be aware of their carbon footprint but ensure that they are leading by example. It is impossible to produce no carbon at all, but climate change campaigners encourage the reduction of consumption of electricity by using energy efficient products, turning off equipment when not in use and wherever possible walking or using bicycles for short journeys. Car sharing of course is another way of reducing carbon use. Planting trees to offset carbon emissions is strongly recommended, as carbon is absorbed by the plants and locked into their leaves and trunks. The Arboretum has undertaken to not only plant trees to combat their students’ footprints but they will also care for the trees for at least 20 years. Certified by the British Permaculture Association and containing 112 hours of theoretical and practical training, this is an internationally recognised course which when successfully completed is a necessary requirement for the Diploma in Applied Permaculture. This innovative and creative bilingual course will welcome high profile specialists from both Britain and Spain as trainers.

Investigation into availability of tickets for tourist attractions PHOTO CREDIT KIKO JIMENEZ SHUTTERSTOCK
READER wondered whether tickets are readily available or are kept for tour operators, so we decided to try and find out By John Smith ONE of our readers based in Benajarafe had been looking for attractions to take family and visitors to and found it difficult to obtain tickets. She drew our attention to three specific attractions and wondered whether they were simply ignoring the public and dealing directly with tour operators. The three attractions were El Caminito del Rey, Nerja Caves and the Alhambra Palace, so we decided to see what we could find out. With El Caminito del Rey there are no free spaces at all in September and there was no opportunity to book in October or later. When an enquiry was sent to their website asking for booking information, the answer came back that all tickets were allocated but at some unknown date in the future, advance
EL CAMINITO DEL REY: Is the world’s most dangerous footpath, but difficult to book.
booking would be open for October to December and advised us to keep checking their website. The Nerja Caves experience was much better and we found that free tickets were available for almost any date in the second half of September. The Alhambra booking arrangements are definitely confusing. You can turn up on the day and hope you can buy tickets at the door for use on that day only for one of the many options and you have to pay cash. If you try to book online, you have to go through Ticketmaster and pay a booking fee. They seem to have almost no availability for September. Alternatively you can purchase a tour from a tour operator. We suspect for the Alhambra in particular, it is easier for them to put sales through a booking agency and as for El Caminito del Rey, they just don’t appear very well organised.

Q & A on Independent Financial Advisors in Spain By Antonio Flores Lawyer LLM (Essex) Reg. Nº 4712 I.C.A. Málaga E-mail: aflores@lawbird.com Homepage: http://belegal.com/blog-by-antonio-flores www.lawbird.com
What is an EAFI? An EAFI firm provides independent financial advice based on professional and customised recommendations, offering its services in a ‘habitual’ manner. It is the equivalent to the UKregulated IFA (Independent Financial Advisor). An EAFI must comply with a staff Code of Conduct, they must have a Customer Attention Desk and collaborate with the Bank of Spain’s Anti-money Laundering Department. What are their requirements? EAFIs require authorisation and registry by the Spanish Securities Commission (CNMV), equivalent to the Financial Conduct Authority. The
CNMV will supervise the EAFI’s activity. Despite a very large number of requests, the Spanish Financial Services Authority has so far only authorised around 90 EAFIs. How do they get paid? According to the Spanish financial regulator, up to 70% of the EAFIs get paid solely by the client and do not receive commissions from financial entities. Overlapping between insurance brokers and EAFIs: It is normal for insurance brokers with a licence to sell products that have a marked financial component i.e. ‘unit linked’ insurance policies or pension plans. EAFIs are however not allowed to advise on, market or sell these products without an insurance licence, granted by the Spanish insurance regulator (DGS or Dirección General de Seguros). Equally, insurance brokers with a valid licence cannot advise on, market or sell
financial investment products without an EAFI licence. EU-registered EAFI: Companies and individuals can be granted a licence to ‘passport’ its business into Spain by virtue of the ‘Freedom to Provide Services’ agreement under the European Directive 92/96/EEC of 10th November 1992 (‘Third Life Directive’), which enables suitably regulated companies to offer cross-border advice. Some companies have been authorised to operate in Spain but have since lost their ‘passport’. How do I check an EAFI registration? There are two ways to know if a company is registered to provide independent financial advice: • Checking with the CNMV (www.cnmv.es). • Checking with the country of registration to find out if it has a valid ‘passport’ to operate in Spain.
EYE TESTS: Vital and currently free at Specsavers Opticas.
Ask the Optician - How do eyes work and why do they sometimes go wrong? By Amrik Sappal, Store Director from Specsavers Opticas Fuengirola THE eyes are one of the most complex organs in your body and it can be difficult to understand why some eyes don’t work as well as they should from birth and why almost all of us will need some help to see as we get older. So here’s a quick guide to understanding your eyes.
What can cause poor vision? If this natural lens does not work effectively, or the shape of your eyeball is irregular, your vision may be blurred at certain distances. Prescription lenses can correct problems by focusing light before it enters your eyes.
How do eyes work? To see clearly, light must be focused precisely on the back of the eye, known as the retina. It enters through the pupil and is focused by a clear flexible lens controlled by tiny muscles.
Why do older people need glasses? As you grow older, the natural lens becomes less flexible and the muscles controlling its shape become less efficient. Known as presbyopia, this af-
fects everyone at some point, most commonly in your mid40s. Your eyes will begin struggling to adjust between distance and reading vision. To rectify it, you need a reading addition to your prescription to help your eyes focus at close distances. What does it mean to be shortsighted? Also known as myopia, this occurs when the eyeball is too long or the power of the eye is too strong. This causes the image to focus in front of the retina. You can see near objects clearly but those further away are more blurred. Concave lenses are used to correct this – they are thicker at the edges. What is long-sight? Also known as hypermetropia, this occurs when the power of the eye is too weak or the eyeball is too short. Thismakes the image focus behind the retina. The eyes may try too hard to focus, causing headaches or sometimes a squint. Convex lenses are used to correct this – they are thicker in the middle. What can you do? Visit your optician for regular eye tests to ensure your vision is clear and any eye related problems can be identified. Specsavers Opticas are currently offering free eye tests, please visit www.specsavers.es to find your nearest store.

opposite. Rich people know that new cars lose value as soon as you drive them out of the shop. Therefore what they do is buy good quality used cars. Forty-four per cent of the rich in the study purchased good quality used cars instead of a new one. Think First: The wealthy don’t make spontaneous purchases, because they know they’ll end up paying more than they otherwise would. Rich people are controlled and shop around for the best price before committing to a purchase. Shopping for bargains is a rich person’s habit! Saving is a Priority: Wealthy people understand the importance of saving and establishing good saving habits. They meticulously set aside money each month for different things like, retirement, bills or unexpected expenses. They save first and spend what’s leftover. Developing good money habits is empowering and it will increase your wealth over time. But remember it takes time and discipline.

I almost began to lose the will to live IN the words of my hero, Senor Littlejohn you simply couldn’t make it up LEAPY LEE SAYS IT
OTHERS THINK IT WELL FOLKS. That was the week that just about took the whole tin. A yellow brick road journey that slowly turned to red and ended up potholed with so much PC and insanity, I almost began to lose the will to live. Snow White’s Seven Dwarfs became ‘Seven Little Friends.’ A woman with the most unlikely sounding name of Proudman, decided, a la Johnny Cash’s ‘boy named Sue,’ to extract her revenge on the genre that gave her that awful name. A company named ‘Nourish’ (what else) is now delivering food bank fodder to your door! A female expert in the ‘politics of outer space’ said she was ‘uncomfortable’ about sending out non PC messages to aliens because - wait for it. ‘It may attract the wrong type of alien.’ Barrack Obama said eating a grizzly bear’s salmon leftover was one of the best

Labour party elected a leader, guaranteed to keep them out of power for the whole length of his tenure. In the words of my hero, Senor Littlejohn, you simply couldn’t make it up. To me the only example of common sense this week came from the continuation of singer Chrissie Hynde’s views on feminism. The singer’s remarks, to the almost maniacal exponent of British feminism Jenni Murray, are well worth a quote. “I don’t think it’s liberating at all to think you can behave like a man,” she said. “When this false commodity of sexual liberation came along which made us think we could act like them, it was totally misleading. Actually women don’t act like men and they also respond emotionally very differently to men. It took me a long time to find out, and I don’t think it was any kind of liberation. I think it was more enslavement.” I understand Jenni Murray immediately changed the subject! Keep the faith Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com

Cinematographic work of art lands at Marbella in October… IF you are a film-lover, you are in luck. The Goya Theatre in Puerto Banus, will be holding the 10th edition of the Marbella International Film Festival (MIFF) between October 7 and 11. Euro Weekly News spoke exclusively to Mac Chakaveh, the director and founder of MIFF, about how the festival began a decade ago, the inspiration behind it, the programming for this year and his ambition for the future. Having run his own very successful business, in 1998, Mac was approached to invest in a TV networking company. As his involvement in the
networks increased, it soon led to annual visits to the Cannes Film Festival, where after a few years he realised there was a need to combine the smaller independent film industry insiders with a film networking venue that was accessible from all over the world. He then recognised, after spending much time on the coast, that Marbella had the potential to become the perfect location to host the event. He said: “We decided to start the Marbella International Film Festival in 2006. I’ve always loved the place and it’s nice to do something here. Comparing here to
We are delighted to have teamed up with Teatro Goya in Puerto Banus as our screening venue. Teatro Goya has wonderful vision on expanding the cultural activities in the region and we are proud to be part of this ongoing project.”
Cannes, Marbella is far better; it has more facilities and is a good place to hold events. Cannes is not for independents and we wanted something like Sundance in America, which had no equivalent in Europe.” He added that the success of the festival was due to the fact that it was a platform for independent film-makers to show their films to the public and to network with industry insiders. On being asked to summarise this decade of the MIFF, he said: “To develop and expand a festival without any official financial support has not been easy, although we have had the blessing and support of the town hall and the regional government. The past 10 years in Marbella have been very volatile economically. When we started in 2005 to establish the festival in Marbella, the economy was at its best and many large organisations and official bodies had promised us financial
support; regrettably, times rapidly changed in 2006. Nevertheless, we managed to move forward with our dream of establishing an international film festival in Marbella which attracts hundreds of films and film-makers every year. We believe the next decade will see this project expand rapidly and hope to increase our activities in Marbella as well as our world tour.” One piece of news for this year’s edition is the change of venue. Mac said: “We are delighted to have teamed up with Teatro Goya in Puerto Banus as our screening venue. Teatro Goya has wonderful vision on expanding the cultural activities in the region and we are proud to be part of this ongoing project.” This year there are films from 20 different countries. Doors open at 4pm on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday October 7, 8, 9, and at 2pm on Saturday and Sunday, 10 and 11.

OPINION & COMMENT
Given a sporting chance that could be closer to 18,000. Rajoy also knows that his one-time mentor Jose Maria Aznar is partly to blame for the refugee crisis. Aznar, panting to go to war with Bush and Blair, was party to the disastrous 2003 Iraq invasion and occupation that set the whole thing in motion and engendered ISIS. Charity cannot start at home, Rajoy knows it.
Cassandra Nash A weekly look - and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene
BARCELONA footballer Gerard Pique does not hide his pro-independence sentiments and is increasingly booed when he plays for Spain’s national side. He was apparently quite hurt to get the bird during the Spain-Slovakia match in Oviedo and it is hard to resist the temptation to respond with “Diddums.” To spare his feelings, the November friendly against England will be played in Alicante City’s Rico Perez stadium instead of the Bernabeu in Madrid although Pique will still be booed. An Alicantino might feel more Alicantino than Spanish but there is scant sympathy for Catalanism and still less for separatism.
Second best REFUGEES in northern Europe are being returned to Spain, the first EU country they entered and where their applications were processed. “It’s very hard after being in another country with so many facilities,” lamented one who was forced to leave Sweden for Madrid. Given the choice, few refugees - or Spaniards - would prefer Spain with high unemployment and exiguous benefits to Sweden.
Blast from past
Change of mind
BEFORE the summer Spain’s president Mariano Rajoy agreed to receive 2,749 refugees. This was less than Brussels wanted but all that the country could afford. Now Rajoy is bowing to pressure from Brussels and at home to accept more, a figure
WHEN Eduardo Madina was defeated by Pedro Sanchez for the PSOE leadership he announced that he would devote himself to Basque issues and gradually leave politics. Now he has allegedly changed his mind and hopes to be included in the Madrid voting list.
GERARD PIQUE: Does not hide his pro-independence sentiments.
EU Crisis: More refugees, make more problems, which leads to more chaos AS thousands desperately seek safety, Germany and Sweden offer welcome, but Britain as usual plays by the rules Nora Johnson
Breaking Views Nora is the author of popular psychological suspense and crime thrillers and a freelance journalist. To comment on any of the issues raised in her column, go to www.euroweeklynews.com/3.0.15/nora-johnson
‘BRITAIN must become part of a permanent EU migrant quota system!’ So declared EC President, Jean-Claude Juncker, upping the ante as he demanded that 160,000 refugees should be relocated across the EU, a scheme that David Cameron warns could encourage more people-smuggling and even more refugees to risk their lives travelling to the continent. As thousands desperately seek safety, Germany and Sweden offer welcome. Some Eastern European nations will admit only ‘Christians.’ Italy and Greece, swamped by refugees, demand help. France and Austria prevaricate. Spain says
BORDER CONTROLS: Refugees should be relocated across the EU.
How many ISIS terrorists are now travelling freely between EU countries?
it’s got enough problems. And Britain tries, as usual, to play by the rules. Namely asylum must be sought in the country of arrival, the main aim being to stop refugees
‘asylum shopping.’ What we have, and will inevitably continue to see, is a breakdown of those rules, the consequence of which may well lead to very serious civil disorder in a number of countries. But why does it take a series of monumental disasters for politicians to realise their mistakes? The EU Schengen agreement removing border controls was at the outset lunacy. How many ISIS terrorists are now travelling freely between EU countries? However, the UK government is right to accept refugees (genuine ones) from camps in Syria. They’re the ones who need help the most, not the hoards of predominantly young males from camps outside Calais who have turned that patch of countryside into a rubbish tip. If they were in danger, why didn’t they stay there to give them safe haven, rather than risk life and limb to get into the UK?
A final thought. How many Syrian refugees will the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait accept? They’re some of the world’s wealthiest nations. Will they give them full rights and benefits to remain permanently? It isn’t enough just to give monetary donations. And America, the first in the conflict zone, what is it doing to help? Why aren’t some of its ships in the Med transporting some of the displaced to safety? But for words of wisdom on the subject, maybe we should turn to former US vice-presidential candidate, Sarah Palin. Yes, the very same who demands immigrants to the US should “speak American.” Nora Johnson’s thrillers ‘Landscape of Lies,’ ‘Retribution,’ ‘Soul Stealer,’ ‘The De Clerambault Code’ (www.nora-johnson.com) available from Amazon.

September 3, 2015: The date on which Europe surrendered WE will remember this day for the rest of our lives. This is the day we lost our civilisation. The enemy is within our gates, and more and more will pour in. We are finished. This is the end. Or at the very least, the beginning of the end. And to think that it took just one image, one photo of a threeyear-old boy lying dead on a Turkish beach, to shatter our resolve and turn the tide. One image was the straw that broke Europe’s back. Mr Murray (By email)
Photographs for possible publication should be sent by email with a full caption to: photonews@euroweeklynews.com
Bad practice I AM very disappointed at the poor management of some of our top tourist attractions. The latest - Camino del Rey - is still showing fully booked calendars for June to September, with no availability for October onwards. Tour companies are block-booking the free time and then offering entrance as part of a paid package. These attractions should be available to all. The same complaints are being expressed about Nerja Caves and the Alhambra Palace. It is just not good enough. Jan Saunders (By email)
Watching F1 IS there a competition between David Coulthard and Eddie Jordan on who can wear the tightest budgiesmuggler jeans? Is there a rolled up sock involved or is it all as nature intended? (I personally don’t need to know the answer!!). Are they just trying to impress Suzi Perry? (I don’t think it’s working!). If they were to do a 100-metre dash towards the camera, would there be a Linford Christie moment? Come on, you all remember that from the 90s! Keith Hallam, travelling Europe (By email)
HAVE we learned nothing? Computer viruses have caused us all many nightmares over the years to the point now where they are part of life, and we just have to suffer with them causing damage and costing us money. The way they get into the system is via a Trojan horse, something nasty hidden inside something innocent. Is it only me that sees the same thing happening with the migrant crisis at the moment? How come thousands of European people are welcoming with open arms hundreds of thousands of Middle Eastern migrants without question. Are they mad? Don’t get me wrong, any family from anywhere that needs help should be helped, but looking at the images on TV and in the press over the last week, many thousands of the migrants are single young men, well dressed, clean shaven, carrying iPhones and wearing Reeboks. Don’t tell me that amongst the hundreds of thousands flooding in there aren’t a couple of thousand terrorists. Islamic State and Al-Qaeda are not stupid, this has been planned, their Trojan horse has worked. Why didn’t all the migrants head south to countries that are closer to their way of life, customs and religion? John Harrington, Fuengirola, Malaga
Poor opinion MIKE WALSH really is quite sanctimonious. I don’t believe everything I read in the newspapers. In fact, after the phone-hacking affair, I have an extremely poor opinion of all journalists. This is endorsed every week when I read your articles. You are such a hypocrite. You pillory the mainstream press, then you produce incredulous conspiracy theories dragged up from extremely dubious sources. Why should anyone believe what
you write? You are no different from the people you are slating. As far as I’m concerned the reality is you are actually doing exactly what all journalists do, which is creating stories and manipulating information that will be read in order to sell newspapers. The only difference is that they are in places like Fleet Street and you are in some backwater in Spain. I like to read the newspapers despite the fact that I take a lot of what I read with a pinch of salt. Having stated that, the first thing I turn to every week is Mike, as I
can’t wait to see what fairy tale conspiracy he will dig up next. Ian Terry (Via website)
School agony HAVING just been through the mixed emotions of the start of another new school year, I can’t help wondering whether teachers in this country put parents (seemingly mothers particularly) through as much agony as possible where books and materials
are concerned in subconscious revenge for having to put up with our little darlings all morning for the next nine months. This year my daughter, who is almost 10 and has started Year 5 at primary school, was issued with a list of stationery supplies, all of which had to be named. Yes, all. Every single pencil, eraser, felt-tip pen had to be labelled, teacher insisted. Why? Does it really matter who uses which pencil and are we not just encouraging children to rely on us conveniently naming everything for them rather than making sure they know where their stuff is? Also this year all primary students have been issued with new textbooks by the regional government. All free, supposedly. Yet how come parents have to take their cheque-libro and order the books, wait for months for them to turn up, spend time and petrol on never-ending trips to see if they’ve arrived. Then on top of it all, we have to spend money on plastic covers for these so-called free books. Not to mention the aggro to get the plastic covers on! Seventeen books later, I have to share a tip: whatever you do, don’t try and use the sticky plastic or you will find the will to live disappears long before the pile of books is covered. Sarah Kite, Mijas Costa, Malaga
All the rain CAN somebody explain to me why in a country such as Spain, that has so little rainfall each year, whenever it rains it causes major problems for some areas? Surely each town has reservoirs that collect it all? Jenni K, Javea, Alicante

YOUR STARS 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?
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. 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. 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. GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) You are so sharp that there is a 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. 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!

1. September 11 9/11 conspiracy theorists believe that the US government had had a warning before the attacks but did not attempt to stop them. Others claim that the Bush government ignored the warnings to have an excuse to launch the Middle East war. The 9/11 Truth Movement reports to have evidence proving that a plane never impacted in the Pentagon and that the World Trade Centre could not have possibly collapsed only by plane impacts and blazing fuel. 2. Nasa ‘fake’ moon landings Some of the most used arguments are that Nasa, aided by other organisations, faked the six manned landings (1969-72) on the moon, making the public believe this house by manufacturing, tampering with or destroying evidence such as pictures, tapes, radio and TV transmissions. However, evidence was left from the landings and since 2000, high definition photos have captured tracks left by them. 3. Paul McCartney is actually dead The urban legend goes as follows: Paul McCartney died in a car crash in 1966 and was replaced by someone who looked and sang just like him. Reasons alleged by supporters of this theory include statements reportedly heard when some of the bands’ songs are played backwards and imagery on album art (McCartney being the only barefooted member in the Abbey Road picture). 4. Roswell In 1947 an unidentified object fell from the sky at a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico, causing hundreds of claims alleging the object was an extra-terrestrial craft. Conspiracy theories rocketed after the US military changed the official version several times. The army told reporters they had retrieved a crashed saucer while other officers insisted it had only been a weather balloon. 5. Elvis Presley’s false death Many fans of ‘The King’ have the common belief that he did not die in 1977, claiming he is still alive and went into hiding. Some of the ‘facts’ alleged to support this theory are his so called ‘sightings’ or that his middle name ‘Arron’ is misspelled as

‘Paul is dead’: many believe he died in a car crash in 1966. ‘Aaron’ on his gravestone, interpreted as ‘a sign’ by the ‘Alivers.’ 6. The JFK Assassination A 2003 poll by ABC News found that 70 per cent of Americans believe President John F Kennedy was not killed by Lee Harvey Oswald alone, but that his death was part of a broader plot. Claims are that the trajectory of the bullets did not match with Oswald’s position on the Texas School Book Depository’s sixth floor. Others believe he was killed by CIA agents for different reasons that deepen the theory. 7. Aids was created in a laboratory Since Aids was first documented in 1981, all kinds of rumours were sparked persisting that the deadly illness was manufactured by the CIA to eradicate homosexuals and African Americans. Others go as far as insisting that the government injected gay men with the virus during hepatitis-B experiments in New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Most scientists, however, believe that the illness was passed from monkeys to humans in the 30s. 8. The reptilian civilisation Extra-terrestrial shape-shifting reptilian humanoids are here to enslave us and they are everywhere:
from our work colleagues to our partners, politicians and singers. This was the theory spread by former BBC sports reporter David Icke in his 1998 book titled ‘The Biggest Secret,’ which claimed the royal family were ‘Annunaki,’ reptiles in disguise. 9. Dinosaurs never existed A number of people claim that dinosaurs never walked the face of earth and that they were invented by freemasons. Amongst the arguments alleged to support the theory are that the bones exhibited at museums are taken from crocodiles, alligators, giraffes, elephants and other to create a man-made animal concept to prove evolution, and disprove tales explained in the Bible and by creationism. 10. Shakespeare was someone else Biographical details about the English language’s greatest writer are scarce and many believe he could have been someone else, namely, Francis Bacon, Christopher Marlowe, William Stantly or Edward de Vere. Many theorists claim there is little evidence to prove the actor and businessman, Shakespeare of Stratford wrote the pieces under his name.

No new Governor
Another incident at sea
More bunkering offered
WHILST the current governor gets ready to depart at the end of September, no new governor has been appointed although there is said to be a shortlist of two, one from the military and the other a civilian. The final decision rests with the Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond but it seems the deputy governor, Alison MacMillan MVO will have to ‘fill in’ for some time.
THE government has confirmed it is investigating reports and a video of an incident at sea on Friday September 11. It is alleged two Guardia Civil officers in a Rigid-hulled inflatable boat rammed their vessel against two Gibraltarian pleasure boats inside British Gibraltar waters. This was repeated even the Royal Gibraltar Police and a customs officer intervened.
MINISTER Albert Isola hosted a working breakfast at Gibraltar House in London to coincide with London International Shipping Week 2015 which finished on September 11. The breakfast was attended by major figures in the bunkering and shipping industry who were told that Gibraltar was an attractive and competitive port for business.
Gibraltar Football team still needs new stadium Kiko Jimenez shutterstock
EXISTING stadium does not meet international standards
EUROPA POINT: Is now unlikely to be site of the new football stadium. By John Smith WHEN the Gibraltar Football Association (GFA) was granted admission to UEFA, it was made clear that the existing Victoria Stadium did not meet international standards, nor could it host enough spectators. There was a very strong initial
thought of building a new stadium at Europa Point, the site of Gibraltar ’s main mosque and home of its only cricket team. However, there has been a great deal of feeling against this choice from residents and environmentalists, with more than 5,000 people signing a petition against it. The Gibraltar Football Association is
now to look into the possibility of a new stadium at Lathbury Barracks after the Government has agreed to make the site available, although the opposition GSD whilst agreeing that Europa Point should be disregarded, recommends an extension to Victoria Stadium even though UEFA will not then assist financially.

ON his website, Cesar says an electronic dog collar is the most successful at stopping unwanted barking, but says owners should seek expert advice before using them. He says: I use many techniques to rehabilitate dogs. In extreme cases by which I mean cases where I am the last resort before a dog is put down ‘these tools may be helpful. But they are just one of many techniques.’ Unfortunately Cesar Millan never states that ‘Tools’ he uses should not be introduced or purchased from pet shops or Ebay, he forgets to state that if one has problems to seek professional advice. I would further comment that when I ran schools many owners would inform me that they had seen on TV Cesar perform some task which only took a few minutes!

I am from the old school and pleased that 27 years ago I took further various courses in London with John Fisher and Annette Conn and others also attending many training schools in the UK and USA, the result of which I was able to advance and educated myself to progress studying root causes of unwanted behaviour and use modern methods. One of these included using a head collar especially good for senior people that have a pet dog yanking them along
the street. The head collar changed this to pleasure and never punishment. It is sad that many Police Service dog handlers who retire do not address the issue of training and working with pet owners which is a total different ball game. At the time of writing this I am mentoring one police officer who works in corrections (Prison) in Las Vegas and another new friend with the Sydney Police working with two dogs and they now want to study behaviour. More should follow this example.
More jetting with pets WHILE in the past flying with pets was complicated and often considered an eccentricity reserved for the privileged, it is increasingly becoming an option for pet owners travelling within EU member states. Now, Iberia has reported, more and more people are choosing to take their pets with them when they travel rather than leaving them in kennels and so far this year the Spanish airline says it has carried more than 29,000 pets on both domestic and international flights. Between January and August more pets flew with Iberia than in the whole of 2014. Dogs, cats, turtles and birds are all allowed to fly
by the airline, providing they have all necessary passports, vaccinations and microchips where required. Small pets can travel in the cabin with their owners, and larger pets are carefully catered for in the cargo hold. Yet Iberia is not the only airline known to be petfriendly. Qatar Airways reportedly accepts falcons as hand luggage, although the number permitted in a cabin at any one time is limited to six, they must travel in economy class and should be tethered and hooded.In an aim to cater for the increasing demand for pet-friendly flights and facilities, New York’s JFK airport has announced plans to renovate an old terminal building to create ARK pet terminal able to house the 70,000 animals that use the airport each year. The terminal will include an animal departure lounge with stalls, food and water for pets and a 24 hour veterinary hospital along with a grooming and massage spa for pets.

In my opinion Views of a Grumpy Old Man
WE could all do with making more monetary savings and there are things you can do to reduce fuel consumption in your vehicle. Keeping the windows closed, not carrying excess loads, keeping your speed and engine revs down all make a different to the amount of fuel your vehicle consumes: 1. Drive your car in a gentle manner avoiding excessive acceleration and deceleration. 2. Check your tyres. This should be routine practice for safety reasons. 3. Keep the engine revs steady. The most efficient levels are between 2,000 and 2,500 for petrol cars and 1,500 to 2,500 for diesels. 4. Move through the gears correctly to help maintain a controlled level of revs. First gear uses the most fuel so use that least. 5. Carrying unnecessary items can hinder the flow of air and reduce aerodynamics and
therefore increase fuel consumption, for example, an empty roof rack can increase consumption by 2 per cent and when loaded, it can increase up to 35 per cent. 6. Maintain a safe and adequate distance when driving. Managing to avoid sudden breaking and acceleration helps fuel consumption. 7. Leave the car. For journeys of less than 3km, it is cheaper to use public transport. 8. Close windows. Modern cars are designed for optimum aerodynamics, but having the windows open can reduce that effect causing drag. 9. Check the air con. Having the temperature set below 20 degrees can increase fuel consumption by 20 per cent. 10. Turn off the engine. Although it is not always practical, turning off the engine is one of the best ways of saving fuel.

So we are off to a good start and that’s as far as it goes, as my day, as usual, goes downhill from there. I love a bit of technology so I pick up my phone and decide to ask Siri (that’s the lady that lives in my iPhone) what the weather will be like today. I’ve never done this before but have been informed by reliable sources that I have to get used to voice recognition. I’ve encountered it a few times and to be honest I don’t get on with it too well.

so I press 9 and listen to them all again. Eventually I hit the right number and get another message saying please have my account/phone/NIE/or whatever ready so t hey can deal wi t h m y enqui r y as swiftly as possible. I gather up all the necessary documents so I can be swiftly dealt with and then it starts - THE MUSIC! I listen to it for a few minutes then I get a ring tone. I think ‘aye aye’ that wasn’t too bad... then I get the automated voice - ‘Sorry we are encountering an unusually high amount of calls today but please hold as your cal l i s i m por t ant t o us.’ I s i t ? I don’t t hi nk so because i f i t was you would employ people to answer your bloody phones!!! But I digress - back to Miss Siri.

OPINION & COMMENT
You asked for this Europe!
OUR VIEW
NEVER in history has a country allowed itself to be conquered without a shot being fired Mike Walsh Mike, based in Mediterranean Spain, is an international journalist, author and professional writer.
UNLESS miracles occur, which I very much doubt, I fear today to write Europe’s obituary. The shameful end of Europe, overrun by non-Europeans and collapsing in economic chaos, betrayed by its leaders, has possibly reached the point of no return. This is just the start. Many Germans, brainwashed on a diet of self-hate since 1945, welcome their self-immolation. There are many post-colonial self-haters in Britain too. In 1975, ‘Camp of the Saints,’ the apocalyptic novel by French author Jean Raspail was published. The setting is a Europe that disappears with hardly a whimper as armadas of Third World refugees storm Europe’s shores. Then in my 30s, I could not close the pages on this prophetic witness to Europe’s doom. You could purchase this book only ‘under the counter’ despite the fact that in France it was a bestselling, award-winning novel. Since then I have experienced the darkest prophecies by everyone from
OVERRUN: Europe has reached the point of no return.
Napoleon to Adolf Hitler, Libyan President Gaddafi, philosophers like Oswald Spengler of a Third World occupied Europe. About two years ago, in a EWN column, I predicted the Mediterranean coastal communities collapsing under the weight of armadas of refugees. It is happening and accelerating at an alarming pace. Never in the history of humankind has a country or continent allowed itself to be conquered and overrun without a shot being fired. There will be no going back; there will never again be a ‘White Europe’ any more than there will be any other past civilisation. Kamil Bulonis, a Polish travel blog writer, who conceded sympathy for the refugees, was this month horrified by the visions from hell he saw on the Italian-Austrian border. “Half an hour ago on the border between Italy and Austria I saw with my own eyes a great many immigrants. I have to say that what I saw arouses horror. This huge mass of people - sorry, that I’ll write this - but these are absolute savages; vulgar, throwing bottles, shouting loudly ‘We want to go to Germany!’ Ninety-seven per cent of these ‘refugees’ are angry young males.” Yes, you asked for this, Europe.

MESSING around with my replacement state of the art smart phone recently, I reflected as I struggled to get to grips with this supa-dupa piece of electronic kit, the contrast with some of the iconic gadgets that we kids had at our disposal back in the 50s. Anyway, I finally managed to get the phone out of the box and I suddenly remembered what was perhaps the first ‘hi-tech’ present that I ever received. It was an interplanetary communications centre complete with two microphones that enabled me to speak to my space cadet colleagues on Jupiter. Actually the length of wire provided, meant that conversations were limited to the distance between the living room and the downstairs toilet, but that was an inconsequential detail. Being an only child, it meant that I would have to play with my new toy on
MODERN TECHNOLOGY: A real contrast to iconic gadgets of the 50s.
Ideal to be a fly on the wall.
It has been a funny old week AS Queen Elizabeth II becomes the oldest reigning monarch in British history, a committed republican becomes leader of the labour party and may possibly become prime minister of Her Majesty’s Government within a few years. Will we now see a groundswell of left-wing support within the United Kingdom or will those who defected to UKIP in the last elections now rush to the conservatives to keep Mr Corbyn out of power? It would be an ideal time to be a ‘fly on the wall’ in a hypothetical situation of and remembering the old joke about turkeys voting for Christmas - a first official meeting between the Queen and the new prime minister who wants to see the end of her family’s reign. Add to the mix the news of the number of refugees who have been granted asylum within the EU together with the forthcoming UK referendum on EU membership and there could be a huge influx or exit of voters before the next election. A proverb or possibly curse ‘may you live in interesting times’ is attributed to the Chinese, and even though there is no known source for it, the next few years should certainly be interesting.

It was all very... well, plasticky. These were the playthings of their time, stimulating the imagination and with an emphasis on the word toy. Apart from some outsize batteries, they were not gadgets incorporating the very latest in technological advances; moreover they lasted for years and gave endless hours of enjoyment.

Is there another way to treat migraine? NICE has offered Pulsed Magnetic Treatment since 2013
By Estelle Mitchell www.thebodyworksclinic.com MIGRAINES are notoriously difficult to treat. They often don’t respond very well to medication or the medication itself can have unwanted side-effects. And you usually know they’re coming... Migraines with aura Some people experience symptoms before an attack called an aura: • Flashing lights, zigzag patterns
or blind spots in your vision • Stiffness, a tingling sensation or pins and needles in your neck or shoulders • Feeling disoriented or off balance • Difficulty speaking • Poor concentration. At this point you probably reach for your medication, resigned to staying in a darkened room for the next one to three days. Is there another way? For some sufferers, yes, there is. NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) in the UK which determines which treatments the NHS can offer has, since 2013, offered Pulsed Magnetic
Treatment for migraine sufferers. In the clinical trials 40 per cent of migraine patients who were treated were found to be migraine free just two hours after treatment. They were still migraine free 24 hours later. Seventy-five per cent of patients who received a course of treatment had a marked reduction in frequency and severity of treatment and required less medication. For more information, a link to the study, the recommendations from NICE and other articles please check out our blog – www.TheBodyworksClinic.com/ blog or call us on 952 883 151.

FEELING TIRED: It is essential that our brain and our body get adequate rest.
FitFoxy Looking Good, Staying Trim
LACK of sleep will change hormone levels in the body. As sleep decreases, the body produces more cortisol, a natural hormone that regulates appetite. When its levels increase we continue to feel hungry despite being full. Lack of sleep also causes levels of growth hormone to decline, which reduces muscle mass and strength, increases fat tissue and weakens the immune system Insulin, the hormone produced by the pancreas to transport glucose from the blood to the muscles and other tissues within the body, increases due to lack of sleep. Because insulin causes sugars to be stored as fats, increased insulin makes weight control difficult.
When we are feeling tired we tend to crave refined carbohydrates like biscuits, crisps and pastries when energy level drop. As our blood sugar rises, energy returns, but the un-needed calories are converted to fat. If we are feeling tired our bodies burn fewer calories because we lack the energy to exercise or work out intensely, therefore keeping storage of excess energy - in other words fat making lack of sleep a double whammy. It is essential that both our brain and our body get adequate rest in order to repair and regenerate whilst we sleep. According to the NSF (National Sleep Foundation) 63 per cent of men and 54 per cent of women suffer from lack of sleep a few nights every week. FitFoxy Tips - Use Exercise to promote quality sleeping patterns • Exercise either early morning or afternoon. Try to avoid exercising three hours before bedtime. • Aim for at least 30 minutes vigorous aerobic activity every day.

Overcoming the trauma of post-holiday syndrome Flickr by Michael Yan
COMING back from holidays and being unable to settle back into our usual routine and work, might by a sign of the so-called ‘holiday blues’. Also known as Post-Holiday Syndrome (when our sadness and discontent goes on for a few days or weeks), the condition includes symptoms such as fatigue, lack of appetite, muscle ache and most of all, anxiety. The main things to keep in mind to avoid this upsetting condition is organising our holidays to keep a buffer day between rest days and going back to work. To avoid getting overwhelmed by built-up work during the holidays, it is important to spend at least half an hour planning out what to do before getting back to work. It is also usual to forget our workout routine during the summer. Experts recommend at least going for walks and incorporating other kinds of exercise routines more holiday-friendly, so that we are prepared to jump back on track after

A FASHION for making portions of snacks, curries and fizzy drinks bigger and bigger is playing a major part in the ever-increasing size of waists in the UK, a new study has revealed. Experts from Cambridge University have said that the new supersized portions are encouraging people to overeat and explained that removing them would reduce consumers’ energy intake by 16 per cent, helping reduce the risk of obesity. In fact, overlarge portions can cause so much damage the government may have to set a limit on sizes or insist prices are increased to encourage people to buy smaller portions, the researchers said. Research head Ian Shemilt said: “At the moment it is too easy, and often better value for money, to eat and drink too much.” In 2013, the British Heart
Foundation reported that curry ready meals have grown by 50 per cent over 20 years, and so had the number of crisps inside family packets. Chicken pies were found to be 40 per cent larger and individual shepherd’s pies had grown by 98 per cent. Children’s Food Campaign coordinator Malcolm Clark stated: “Bigger plates, bigger packs, bigger portions, bigger us. Initiatives such as limiting chocolate bar singleserve portion size to 250 calories are a start. The government needs to take a hard look in its childhood obesity strategy at how less healthy items are marketed and at what price to counter the huge rise of sharing sizes and snacking bags aimed at children and families.” The strategy, currently being drawn up by Downing Street policy officials, is expected to be launched in November.

Cystic fibrosis sufferers can have a brighter future IN Spain, those suffering from the chronic disease go on to be educated and have careers and families By Gemma Quinn PEOPLE with cystic fibrosis, an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system, and for which there is no cure, have a brighter future to look forward to as it is estimated that their lifespan could reach 40 years. Research published in the European Respiratory Journal notes that the number of people living with cystic fibrosis in adulthood could increase dramatically by 2025. People living with cystic fibrosis have previously had a low life expectancy, but improvements in treatment and care in the last three decades have led to increased survival with almost all children now living to around the age of 40. Estimations scientists have done in 34 European countries show that for patients with cystic fibrosis the average age of survival is
increasing and the study’s authors are now calling for more care to be put in place for these people: “We are now concerned that there are insufficient specialist centres to provide optimal care for adults with the disease. The health systems will have to adapt to this change, especially in countries with worse adult services established,” said study author Pierre-Régis Burgel, from the Cochin Hospital in Paris, France. In Spain there is no official data on patients, but pulmonologist at the Ramon y Cajal Hospital, Madrid, Doctor Luis Maiz, estimated the number of patients could be between 2,500 and 3,000, whose survival could reach 40 years with the current treatments available. He said in Spain, those with cystic fibrosis go on to be educated and have careers and families: “In Spain the majority of patients reach adulthood.”
Adopting a Mediterranean diet just as good as statins An Iberian Funeral Plan will take care of the provision for life’s final event.

LEADING doctors are urging people at risk of a stroke or heart attack to reduce it by adopting a Mediterranean diet instead of resorting to statins. Healthier diets, more physical activity and stopping smoking, a new report has stated, is just as effective in reducing the risks as
starting to take cholesterollowering drugs. In the UK, an estimated seven million people are believed to be taking the drugs, with new guidelines allowing anyone with a 10 per cent chance of a stroke or heart attack to be prescribed them, whereas the threshold was previously 20 per cent.
Yet the British Medical Association and the Royal College of GPs have expressed serious concern about the guidance, arguing that some people could end up overmedicated and changes to lifestyle (nutrition, physical activity and smoking) would do the job just as well.
Alcoholism and other addiction cure could be one step closer CELLS responsible for cravings have been discovered which scientists say could help them find a cure for alcoholism and other addictions. Researchers in the USA say alcohol consumption alters the structure and function of neurons in the part of the bra in know n to be
important in goal-driven behaviours. Large amounts of alcohol triggers D1 neurons, part of t he ‘ go’ pat hway i n t he brain, making them more excitable and increasing the feeling of a craving or need for more alcohol; they compel you to perform an action such as drinking more.
By suppressing these D1 receptors, scientists found they were able to suppress the compulsion to drink alcohol. The hope is now that researchers will be able to go on and devel op speci f i c t r eat m ent t hat can t arget these neurons and stop the cycle of alcoholism.

Toscano Osteopathy Health Clinic AGE is no barrier for osteopathy since each patient is assessed individually FRANCISCO Toscano Jimenez, BSc Hons, Ost. Med, DO MRO MROE, is a member of the General Osteopathic Council UK, the Registro de Osteopatas Spain, and belongs to the European Federation of Osteopaths. Osteopathy is a well respected and sought-after medical profession within the primary healthcare system. An ever increasing popularity throughout Europe has been evident in recent years. It is an established and recognised system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of medical conditions. It lays its main emphasis on the structural integrity of the body in order to assure for best possible function and health. The osteopath understands that in order for your body to work well, its structure must also work well. So osteopaths work to restore your body to a state of balance, where possible without the use of drugs or surgery and to treat not just the symptoms but the causes of the symptoms.
TREATMENT: The use of manual techniques will help your body to readjust. The treatment consists of the use of manual techniques that will help your body to readjust and increase
the mobility of joints, relieve muscle tension, enhance the blood and nerve supply to tissues. All these changes
Early starts are ‘torture’ A UK leading sleep expert believes that making people under the age of 55 start work before 9am is similar to ‘torture’. The academic from Oxford University said making staff work 9am-5pm leaves their bodies stressed as a result of a
lack of sleep. He said it posed a threat to performance up to the age of 55, at which point the body starts requiring less sleep. As a result of his research into the body’s 24-hour rhythms, the sleep expert has called for staggered start times at schools
and workplaces, believing that younger children who naturally wake up earlier can start school from 8.30am, but for older children, particularly those aged 16, the day should start nearer to 10am or 11am to help boost their performance.
are necessary requirements for your body’s own healing mechanisms. This unique way of assessing and
treating the person provides a broad and holistic approach in the recovery to health. Age is no barrier for osteopathy since each patient is assessed individually and treatment is according the presenting symptoms and needs of the patient. The spine must not only support the body in the erect position, but it also has to cope with all the physical burdens and strains of a lifetime and allow perfect freedom of movement in all directions. Any injury to the spine not only concerns us for the limitation and reduction of the quality of movement. With the aid of Toscano osteopathy you can regain a fully functional and active lifestyle. Many use osteopathy to improve their golf swing.

This incredibly elegant restaurant situated in the heart of Marbella opened its doors only six months ago as part of a rapidly growing company that was born in 2000. Such has been the success of this amazing new concept for elegant dining, that La Mafia only operates in major cities and prime locations due to the demand for this standard of venue. The restaurant is prominently themed and inspired by the film ‘El Padrino’ (The Godfather) as the decor stands proud with gilt picture frames, chandeliers, silver wear, and elegant table linen. To complete the theme throughout names of the Carleone family, including Vito (Marlon Brando) The Godfather himself are inscribed in gold upon the walls and chairs of the restaurant. The Mafia theme has attracted attention along with the exquisite cuisine that is created in the traditional way by generations past. The dishes are lovingly prepared to reach the hearts of the diners with tempting combinations that include an array of risottos made with the finest bacon, prawns, and seasonal vegetables, macaroni and pasta dishes made using classic recipes, all freshly prepared daily in the kitchen. There are speciality sauces and many succulent salads that you not only eat with the mouth but the eyes too, due to the excellent presentation. There are also dishes designed for sharing so that romantics can be lost in the food and ambience at La Mafia, or for parents who wish to relax away from the children, there is a monitored playroom on the upper floor of the restaurant where they can play as the adults eat.

September is the time of year to tread the grapes and also to sell your home SPAIN has a lot to offer but buyers can also have both modern and contemporary styles in one property John Graham The property expert
SEPTEMBER is a great time of year, the weather is excellent, there are less tourists and it’s the time of year when vineyards throughout Spain start harvesting their grapes. One of the most iconic symbols of traditional rural wine-producing is the annual treading of the grapes, or ‘pisado de la uva’ in Spanish. It probably won’t surprise you to hear that treading on grapes is not as prevalent as it used to be as modern techniques replace older methods. September is also an important month for real estate, it’s the time of year when buyers start visiting Spain
GRAPE HARVEST: Traditional can compete with modern. looking for their dream home. Buyers are either looking for a traditional style or a more modern contemporary home and Spain has a lot to offer but buyers can also have both styles in one property; let me explain.
Many home-owners of traditional style homes ask me what they can do to compete with modern contemporary homes. The answer is to keep the exterior traditional but make the interior of your home modern and contemporary.
More autumn sales SEPTEMBER is the first of the four busiest months By Eleanor Hawkins IDEALISTA real estate website has predicted sales will increase and remain high from now until the end of the year. The last few months of the year tend to be the busiest ones for property sales in Spain and this, combined with the fact that the market is recovering - the National Statistics Institute has reported sales in July as the highest in five years - means sales are likely to be excellent this autumn, the website said. Idealista stressed that September is the first of the four busiest months of the year for sales, and therefore predicted transactions would increase significantly between now and January 1. In fact, it believes the number of sales could be 15-20 per cent higher than in the January-July period. Last year, 14.9 per cent more sales were registered by the site in the second half of
PREDICTED SALES: To increase and remain high. the year compared to the first, and in 2013 the increase was higher still at 22.6 per cent. Fernando Encinar, head of studies at idealista, said that the good results the Spanish economy is seeing, banks’ interest in providing mortgages, price adjustments and more
work security could result in more sales being completed this autumn than so far this year. Yet, the website said, the increased interest in property is unlikely to make prices soar as many properties are available for sale.
Ten points to make your traditional home look modern contemporary. 1. First knock down non-load bearing walls, open up the living space and kitchen which will increase the amount of natural light in your home. 2. The kitchen should be modern and well designed. 3. Make your bathrooms look modern, fit walk-in showers with glass screens and new bathroom suite. 4. If you have marble or ceramic floor tiles, make them look new again and hire a company to industrial polish them. 5. Decorate your home throughout in modern neutral colours with matching curtains and blinds. 6. Paint the exterior of your home in modern neutral colours; remember the lighter the colour, the bigger your home will look.
7. Make your home look bigger and modern. De-clutter rooms. 8. Replace old-fashioned lighting and fit new, modern light fittings. 9. If you have a private pool check machinery and ensure pool is clean. 10. Repair patios and paths, keep your garden tidy. Like the tradition of treading grapes competes with modern machinery, your traditional home can now compete with the modern contemporary properties. Now sit back and enjoy a bottle of excellent Spanish wine with the buyer of your traditional/contemporary home. If you are looking to sell or buy a home, please contact me, John Graham, Fellow of the Architecture & Surveyors Institute. Gk.ipad@me.com

Health foods from your garden without eating liquorice allsorts NATURAL sources of iron are included in many fruits, vegetables and herbs Dick Handscombe
Gardening Corner By Spain’s best known expatriate gardening author living in Spain for 25 years.
A MONTH ago exactly I was amazed by two newspaper articles, one in the Daily Mail and the other in the EWN. The first described the £116 million (excluding handling charges of £22 to £40 per authorised order) of gluten free junk food being provided by NHS doctors on prescription which include custard creams, doughnuts and pizzas in spite of the UK’s obesity crisis. The second recommended that we eat liquorice allsorts to achieve the 14mg a day of iron intake recommended by the EU. The first flabbergasted me when the home growing of beneficial fruit and vegetables is so widespread in the UK compared to Spain. The latter reminded me that as a child I was often given in war-time England a stick of liquorice
IRON DEFICIENCY: There are natural sources in a wholesome garden. from a liquorice plant for its blood improving benefits and in Spain the plants were often grown on allotments surrounding the coastal villages. Indeed in some areas along the coast, including the Segura valley in Alicante Province, liquorice now grows
wild between irrigated fields. May be the liquorice sticks still chewed by Spanish children come from that area. This need for iron and the fact that a diet of processed foods can result in iron deficiencies unless iron additives are part of the formulations prompted me to check through the tables of garden produce benefits in our book ‘Living well from our garden Mediterranean style.’ This highlighted the following natural sources of iron that can be included in an interesting wholesome garden version of a Mediterranean diet. Fruits - Grapes and raisins, peaches and apricots especially if dried, strawberries, goose-
berries, mulberries, natal plums, olives, quince. Vegetables - Broccoli, Brussel sprouts, garlic, green leaves, beans, courgettes, cauliflowers, rocket, pumpkin seeds, peas, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, peanuts, Jerusalem artichokes, leeks. Herbs - Thyme, parsley, purslane, fennel, globe artichokes, Romanesque. I have seen it claimed that the eating of citrus fruits can make it easier for the body to absorb the iron offered by such natural sources. Incidentally the benefits to the body of a regular iron intake include increased red blood cell formation in the blood, transportation of oxy-
gen, improved immune system and energy levels. For plants iron is required to prevent the bleaching of leaves and stimulate chlorophyll formation to green plants including leaves. So season by season our gardens, even just a few vegetables grown in builder’s buckets along the drive or hidden away in a semi shaded corner of the garden, can definitely improve our health and support an active lifestyle without resorting to the so called energy drinks. By the way if you do imbibe health drinks to give you the energy to garden do read the instructions. Some years ago I joined a Spanish group walking from Covadonga where the first de-
feat of the moors took place to Granada where centuries later the final defeat was achieved. The support van had two cases of an energy drink but when we read the accompanying leaflet the listed potential side effects led the group to jettison the two cases at the next nights stop. However wine in moderation to celebrate the end of an evening in the garden is of benefit as red wine includes assimilateable iron, which I suppose is not surprising as grapes do and therefore also the raisins I dried a couple of weeks ago ready for the Christmas pudding. © Dick Handscombe www.gardenspain.com

Playing with light for a new look to create atmosphere THERE are many different ways to use light to make the most of a home’s potential
emphasise the contrast between a room’s centre and the corners and are a cheap way to light spaces where recessed lighting is not an option. Soft, uniform light: lighting should never dazzle and it’s best to avoid shadows. Using soft, uniform lighting is the best way to make sure it is comfortable to the eye. Candles are another way to help create a unique atm ospher e. They gi ve any room a romantic touch and can help create a warm, relaxing feel. Play with mirrors: any already hanging on walls can be used to play with lighting as they reflect everything in front of them, incl udi ng l i ght .

SOFT LIGHTING: The best way to make sure it is comfortable to the eye.
Too much clutter in your house? WHERE space is at a premium for families with young children, one answer could be using a storage unit. Families can use self storage to help relieve stress, declutter their home and reclaim their hallway. Store the toys and equipment One of the biggest problems for a family with young children is the amount of toys and equipment you will acquire, and how quickly you acquire it. With family and friends showering you in gifts, you will soon be overrun all things baby. Self storage can help you store all of these bits and bobs to use at a later date, or for the next baby. Store seasonal clothes Another strain on home storage is the amount of clothes your children have. Not only do they outgrow clothes very quickly, but also clothes are seasonal. Storing large quantities of baby clothes isn’t easy. A storage unit can be used to store your family’s seasonal clothing, meaning extra space in the family home.
SELF STORAGE: Can help relieve stress, declutter and free up your hallway. Relieve stress A cluttered home is known to increase stress significantly. With a
young family the potential for extra clutter is a real threat. If children’s toys overrun your home, in addition
to buggies and clothes, relieve your stress by using storage for the overspill in your home.
Do you need to move home? If you are a small family with another baby on the way, it is not really realistic to buy a new home just because you need more space. Self storage can help your family save space, meaning you won’t have to take the more expensive decision to buy a bigger home. Plan for the future Are you planning to have more children? Don’t leave toys, clothes and buggies around the house taking up valuable space. And definitely don’t sell them or throw them away. Instead self storage offers an affordable solution to your problem, so you can plan for the future free from clutter. Downsizing At the other end of the spectrum, your children may be flying the nest meaning - like a lot of other British families - you’re downsizing. It’s likely once you move you will have too much stuff, a lot of which you will want to keep.

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 “El Refugio” in La Cala de Mijas is a registered charity. We have on average 275 dogs in our care and we receive no help from the Town Hall or the Andalucian government. We desperately need foster homes and adoptants for our many dogs, especially the small ones and puppies who do not do well in a big shelter. We are grateful for any help offered, including donations of food and blankets. Visiting times are from 13.00 to 15.00 and you can always turn up or make an appointment by calling Denise on 669 018 736. Our website is www.ace-charity.org where you can view all the dogs in our care. (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 appreciate 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 rehoming, please call 653 257 875. Visit our website www.sos-animals.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. (93317)

formance, clean technology diesel. A choice of 15 colours, in three duo-tone and one single mono-tone colour split. Eight speed automatic gear box. Although it may be considered by some as rather vulgar to ask the price, the basic model is expected to be available from UK dealers in early 2016 at a starting price in the region of £160,000 (€217,000) which makes it considerably more expensive
than the dearest Range Rover, but many will find the Bentley cache too much to resist. Bentley confidently expect this to become their highest selling car in a relatively short space of time and have the philosophy as expounded by engineering director Rolf Frech “Owners may never drive these vehicles off road, but they must know it will perform in tough conditions.”

TENNIS - Serena Williams’s run of 33 Grand Slam match wins came to a sensational end when she was ousted in the semi-finals of the women’s singles of the US Open by unseeded Italian Roberta Vinci. This was one the biggest upsets the game has ever known. “A monumental shock,” said Billie Jean King. Williams, squealing, grunting and groaning, looking overweight and wearing a pantomine costume and yellow headband and
chasing all four major titles in the same year, was brought down to earth by a rank outsider. Unfortunately, Vinci lost to fellow country lass Flavia Pennetta in the final. In the men’s final, Novak Djokovic beat Roger Federer, but GB’s Jamie Murray lost in the men’s doubles while Indian Leander Paes and Martina Hingis took the mixed doubles title with Hingis also winning the women’s doubles. CRICKET -Australia won the ODI series 3-2. England came back from two down to win the third and fourth games at The Oval and Leeds, but were then crushed by eight wickets in the final encounter at Old Trafford after being bowled out for just 138. Back in the UK, Yorkshire
have retained the County Championship and Notts wicket-keeper Chris Read has claimed his 1,000th victim, the first to reach this milestone for 18 years. FOOTBALL - Last Saturday, Manchester United (with a great goal by the world’s most expensive teenager, Anthony Martial) beat Liverpool (despite Christian Benteke’s superb overhead kick) 3-1. Reigning champions Chelsea were dismal in losing 3-1 at Everton for whom Steven Naismith became the first player to score a Mo Farah.

Two rugby superstars tackle La Sella PHIL DE GLANVILLE and Matt Perry played in a match which raised €2,200 for Grant-A-Wish Getting in the swing with Campbell Lamont
By Tony Myles THE Continental Wealth Management Annual Golf Day at La Sella enjoyed an extra celebrity element last week, as Phil de Glanville and Matt Perry were special guest competitors. Both Phil and Matt have enjoyed an exceptional career in Rugby for England and Bath, having gained over 70 international caps between them. With the Rugby World Cup just a few days away it was a splendid coup for Continental Wealth Management to secure these guys,
CELEBRITY GUESTS: Phil de Glanville and Matt Perry. even though it was for a flying visit, and everyone who had a opportunity of meeting them, expressed real appreciation for their friendly and informal manner and their great sense of humour. Despite having a late night the
previous evening, due to delayed flights and a few small beers, both men were remarkably fresh when they teed off just after 1 o’clock, surrounded by a host of spectators and fans. Just a week previously the heav-
ens had bestowed up us the muchlonged-for rain and so the course was even more demanding than normal with less run on the ball and slightly longer growth on the fairways. So extra credit must go to those who played remarkably well and some commiserations to the many who didn’t. The golf day extended into the evening and everyone moved across to the Marriott poolside where the caterers were waiting with an enormous BBQ. Speeches were made, winners were applauded and a large sum was raised on behalf of Grant-A-Wish. This is the local charity that benefits from many events organised by Continental Wealth Management and on this occasion they were delighted to receive in excess of €2,200. So who won? Late nights, several beers, very little sleep were exactly the ingre-
dients that Matt Perry needed in order to score 42 points and playing off a handicap of 13. His companion Phil de Glanvillle was also worthy of note in seventh place with 34 points. As Continental Wealth Management were picking up the bill for the entire event we must also mention their CEO, Anthony Downs, who came a close second with a very credible 40 points and a handicap that will suffer from a degree of adjustment in future events. It was an excellent day which ran smoothly throughout thanks to the team at CL GOLF, and as the Rugby pros headed back home they both stated that they were intent on returning to La Sella as soon as possible and in the meantime we can expect England to collect the Rugby World Cup in a few weeks from now.
