More fun at the fair SAN PEDRO Fair extended after last week’s storms
By Eleanor Hawkins The authorities have announced that San Pedro fair, which ran from October 14 to 19, has been given a new lease of life. The fairground will be back up and running from this evening, Thursday 22, until Sun-
day to make up for lost time due to last weekend’s storms. As torrential rain fell on the fairground last Sunday night, police and Civil Protection officers were ordered to evacuate the fairground as a preventive measure, disappointing fair-goers and attraction owners alike.
Casetas and bars will not be open, but rides and stands will run from 6pm to midnight tonight and on Sunday, and from 6pm to 2am on Friday and Saturday. Youngsters and parents in particular will be pleased to hear that rides will all cost just €2.

Hungry children MIJAS’ Education councillor Carmen Marquez has once again complained that there are more than 600 schoolchildren in the municipality waiting for places at school canteens. Although their families
are more than willing to pay for their youngsters’ lunches, the councillor explained, a lack of planning on the Junta de Andalucia regional government’s part has meant that the service is unprepared for the extra work.
New road access NEW accesses to the Ronda ring road have been opened to traffic following improvement works. The new accesses, work on which was relaunched in June 2014 with a €13.6 million price tag, should help alleviate traffic problems in the busy area which is used by an estimated 10,000 vehicles per day, the Junta de Andalucia regional government announced.

BRIDE AND GROOM: Dressed up as zombies for Halloween night. By John Smith FAMOUS as a children’s celebration in the USA where trick or treating has seen hundreds of thousands of children across the country dress up as ghosts and ghoulies visiting neighbours for sweets, Halloween has become increasingly more popular in Spain. It has become part of a three-day celebration running from October 31 to November 2. Halloween is known as the Day of the Witches where adults and children alike dress up and hold parties and is increasingly more popular because November 1, All Saints Day is a very important public holiday

November 2 is All Souls Day when people generally remember the departed, whether family members or not. The entire three-day celebration is often referred to as the Day of the Dead in Spain, although this title is more often associated with Mexico. Adults have definitely taken to walking the streets dressed as Vampires, Werewolves and Zombies with their neighbours on Halloween night which in parts of the north west of Spain is also known as the Night of the Pumpkins.

The irony is that anyone who has been out of the UK for less than 15 years, no matter where they are resident now, will be eligible to vote, as will Gibraltarians who are represented in the EU by the MEP for South West England, as well as Cypriot, Irish, Maltese and all commonwealth citizens resident in the UK.

the fact that whilst in Government, they were opposed to such an amendment. The British Govern-

Some will argue that if people have turned their back on Britain and have moved away, then why should they be allowed to try to influence a final decision. But others would suggest that pensioners in particular will have contributed and possibly still do to the economy and if they have the right to return to their country of birth, then they should also have the right to cast their vote with regards to its future. Time will tell whether this matter will be reviewed prior to the referendum but with an estimated one million people affected, if people are sufficiently interested, they could consider setting up a petition on the 10 Downing Street website https://petition.parliament. uk/petitions/check.

TRANQUIL: Residents at the idyllic Puerto Marina will be able to get some much-needed sleep at last.
Marina terraces shut COURT orders closure until businesses comply with noise regulations By Eleanor Hawkins BARS and restaurants in Benalmadena’s Puerto Marina which fail to meet noise regulations have started to take their terraces down following a recent sentence by the Andalucian High Court. The councillor for the marina, Encar-
nacion Cortes, confirmed last week that the council had started to close down terraces and that bar and restaurant owners would have to make necessary adjustments before they could reopen. Local residents had been complaining about the noise in the marina since 1998 and had contacted the council a number
of times but were forced to take the matter to court as nothing was done to improve matters. Although initially a Malaga court found in favour of the council, the residents appealed and finally the high court awarded them damages and insisted the situation be remedied.
Fugitive caught in Estepona NATIONAL Police have arrested a 50-year-old man in Estepona who is wanted by the authorities in Germany for drug trafficking. Investigations began, the police force reported, when the German authorities informed them that the man could be hiding in Malaga and he was tracked down at a home near Estepona. The European arrest and extradition order issued by a German court stated he could face up to 15 years in
jail for organising so-called ‘go fast’ drug deliveries, consisting of using powerful fast cars to drive drugs to their destination as quickly as possible. The German authorities were alerted to the offence in June 2013 when a car carrying 42 kilos of hashish from Spain to Finland broke down in Germany and was confiscated by the police. The detainee has been taken to the National Court to await extradition.
Police face retrial FIVE Mijas Local Police officers are to face trial again after having been acquitted of drug trafficking. The High Court has ordered the case to be reheard by a different group of judges, and evidence which was rejected when the case was first heard by a Malaga court to be included. The Public Prosecutor’s Office and Mijas Council as the private prosecutor have called for jail sentences of between four and seven years for the five officers, whom they believe used their status to confiscate drugs and then sell them on for personal gain.
Louts force residents to close park RIVIERA del Sol residents have been forced to close down the Princesa Diana park in the afternoons and at weekends due to boisterous youths and have had to ask the council to arrange extra police presence. The Parks and Gardens Councillor for Mijas, Lourdes Burgos, announced that she has asked the Local Police to lay on extra patrols in the area and have officers pop into the park at random times to try solve the problem. “Local residents have complained that youths with bikes and skateboards were entering the park and causing trouble, throwing litter about, drinking and harming animals. It’s a shame such a pretty, busy park has had to be closed in the afternoons and weekends which is when children should be able to go there,” Burgos said.

Three helicopters seized and 15 arrested in hash bust by Malaga police DRUGS picked up in Morocco and flown to Spain for distribution in Europe By Eleanor Hawkins SIX Spaniards, seven French nationals and two Moroccans have been arrested for allegedly belonging to two criminal gangs that flew large amounts of hashish into Spain by helicopter to later distribute across Europe. The Guardia Civil carried out the operation in various phases, which began with the confiscation of a helicopter in May 2014, after it crashed and the pilot was killed. In December, another two helicopters were confiscated and four people arrested as investigations continued to identify all the members of the gangs, from helicopter owners and pilots to front-men and support teams on the ground. Given the danger of the flights to and from Morocco to collect the drugs, al-

ways at night and at low altitude to avoid detection, an expert flight instructor also trained in mountain rescue in the French Pyrenees and Swiss Alps was employed to recruit and train up the pilots. The drugs were later dropped off at hiding places on the Costa del Sol, from where they were distributed across Europe by land, the Guardia Civil reported. Meanwhile, the helicopters were hidden on rented country properties.
Five searches have now been carried out on properties in Malaga, Cadiz, Toledo and Madrid, and members of all levels of the gangs’ hierarchy taken into custody. The detainees have been charged with drug trafficking, belonging to criminal groups, illegal weapons’ possession and receiving illegal goods. Amongst the items confiscated the police force listed three helicopters worth an estimated €2.5 million, 810 kilos of hashish, four cars, flight books, cash, mobile phones, night vision and navigation equipment, and computers. Investigations were directed by Estepona’s number three and four courts and carried out by the EDOA in Malaga with support from the Guardia Civil Air Service and the Sevilla Security and Reserve Group.
SEIZED: Cash, drugs, phones, weapons and more.
A busy month for drug squad ANTI-DRUG trafficking operations in Malaga City in September netted 33 arrests, National Police have reported. Sixteen sales points were broken up in La Victoria, Campanillas, Capuchinos, Churriana, Garcia Grana, Giron Guadalhorce, Haza de Cuevas, Lagunillas, Mangas Verdes, Palma-Palmilla, Puerto de la Torre and Suarez districts. Altogether, 23,311 grams of hashish, 51,164 grams of marihuana, 256 grams of cocaine, 19.5 grams of heroin, 15 marihuana plants, €23,762 in cash and various weapons, mobile phones and tools were confiscated.
No ID on body NATIONAL Police officers are investigating the circumstances surrounding the death of a man who body was found by a walker close to the Agujero reservoir north of Malaga on Monday, October 19. While the results of a post-mortem examination come through, officers are checking missing persons reports filed recently in an attempt to identify the man, who was not carrying ID.
False sex abuse claim A WOMAN has been arrested in Torremolinos for falsely accusing an acquaintance of sexual abuse. The 36-year-old woman presented an official report at the Torremolinos-Benalmadena police station, the National Police reported, providing all sorts of details of a sexual attack. She reported that the man had asked her to go to his home to fix a TV decoder as a favour and then tried to take advantage of her. But investigators began to find discrepancies in her story and, when confronted, the woman admitted that she had made the story up because her boyfriend was harassing her for getting home late. The police force later denounced the waste of resources, material and time which could all have been better spent investigating real crimes.

Cheap ride FUENGIROLA residents aged four to 16 (or 18 if still at school) can now apply at the Youth Department for a new transport card. Card holders will pay just 50 cents per ride on local buses.
Jail time A MAN sentenced to 18 months in jail for stealing almost €600 worth of lottery tickets from an outlet in Torremolinos in 2011 has had his appeal rejected by a Malaga Provincial Court and will have to serve his sentence.
THE three-hour daily strikes being held by DGT traffic authority examiners have led to a rescheduling nightmare for learners who already have appointments to take their driving tests in Malaga Province. Each day around 120 learners who have been given a date for their test are told that their appointment has to be rearranged for another day. Antonio Martin of the Malaga Provincial Driving School Association said that the situation has resulted in a 50 per cent drop in the number of lessons given in the city and falls of up to 80 per cent in Ronda, Marbella and Antequera in comparison to October 2014.
TESTING TIMES: Learner drivers are having to change test dates. Malaga has almost 300 driving schools across the province, and they have reported that 4,700 people are
waiting to take tests. Malaga is one of the provinces where the most examiners are taking part in

Blessed with a caring heart... 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. Maria Jose is a role model for those who know her, but she tries to be her own person. By Eleanor Hawkins ALTHOUGH the name Maria Jose Cañete may not mean a lot to some people, she is the heart and soul of Helicopteros Sanitarios, Spain’s leading emergency service and home medical assistance company. It was the first in Spain to offer both roadside and home medical assistance. Money has not been the driving force behind Maria Jose’s brainchild. Launched in 1988, the company is the product of her lifelong desire to help and care for people. Today, her innovation employs more than 200 highly qualified professionals who have dealt with more than 1.2 million medical emergencies and directly saved more than 14,000 lives. When asked, Maria Jose told us that her best achievement in life had been managing to stick to her principles and gain the respect and loyalty of those she cares for. Preferring not to speak of failures, she said her greatest discovery was realising that goodness and honesty are not actually part of human nature. This taught her that deception and pain should never stop her in her tracks, and to remember that even when everyone else seems to be running past her, she should still persevere and keep putting one foot in front of the other. Amazingly, in order to set up the service, she had to follow all of the protocol required to run a full airline company
MARIA JOSE CAÑETE: Still has a list of projects and dreams she fully intends to put into effect in the future.
The inspirational woman behind Helicopteros Sanitarios Our role is already inside us; all I’ve done is look inside myself and fight to always be myself. We can’t live through other people’s dreams or try to be like someone else and this was just one of the many trials that she faced. Her long list of achievements, which include medals and awards for her work, has been reached by steady, constant hard work combined with her strongest points - perseverance, empathy, patience and compassion - which she refuses to refer to as work. “My work isn’t work. I love what I do. I’ve got where I am by persevering through thick and thin, never taking my eyes off my goal and always looking ahead,” she explained. So what was the hardest part? Swimming amongst sharks, she

quickly replied, and what she calls her greatest weakness: falling apart at the sight of children and elderly
people suffering. Having come so far, many would now be happy to rest on their laurels
and admire what they’ve worked hard to create, but not Maria Jose. She still has a list of projects and dreams she fully intends to put into effect but she also expects in five years’ time, to still be in her office with her team and her family around her. After such a busy life, there must have been many moments worth a mention, yet she firmly stated that the best part had been watching the miracle of life in action: watching her children grow up and her business do the same. Medals, thousands of lives saved, a business to envy, what is Maria Jose proudest of? “The loyal people who love their work and walk by my side, my children and my mother,” she told us. Maria Jose is a role model for many women who know her, but she said she has never really tried to be like anyone else. “Our role is already inside us; all I’ve done is look inside myself and fight to always be myself. “We can’t live through other people’s dreams or try to be like someone else,” she said.

Locals rise up over Ronda danger road PETITION and protest for extra safety measures on the A397 By Eleanor Hawkins A GROUP of locals are gathering signatures which will be taken to the Junta de Andalucia regional government with a request for extra safety measures on the Ronda road. The A397, running between Ronda and San Pedro, is considered one of the most dangerous in the province, with 365 bends along its 48-kilometre length. Speaking for a group of local residents and road-users, Maria Antonia Gonzalez explained that the signatures are to demand improvements to crash barriers on the road, which can kill or cause horrendous injuries to bikers in particular when accidents happen, something seen all too often on the

Malaga exports are on the up MALAGA is the Andalucian province that registered the largest growth in exports over the first seven months of this year, reaching ₏1.05 billion, 16 per cent more than the same period in 2014. The news was announced by regional government delegate Jose Luis Ruiz Espejo at an export event for small and medium businesses in Malaga last week. Although Malaga is still sixth in Andalucia for total exports, it registered a much larger increase than Spain as a whole, where they rose 5.5 per cent, or Andalucia as a whole where they fell by 3.5 per cent. Malaga’s ideal position within Europe but near Africa and with relatively easy access to America, is helping it to grow in exports, the mayor said.

Pedestrianisation project under way TORREMOLINOS to put alternative routes in place during works By Eleanor Hawkins PRELIMINARY work has started in Torremolinos to turn the town centre into a pedestrian zone. Detours will be created along Avenidas Isabel Manoja and Los Manatiales, and Calles Rio Bergantes and Rio Aranda. Work started on Monday, October 19, and should be complet-
ed by the end of November. In a month-and-a-half, traffic access to the Plaza Costa del Sol and the stretch of Avenida Palma de Mallorca running up to Avenida Isabel Manoja will be closed off. To allow for the extra traffic, the council explained, Avenida Isabel Manoja will be given an extra lane between Calle Pontevedra and Calle Europa in the
Avenida Palma de Mallorca direction, meaning there will be two lanes going in one direction and one in the other. The second stretch, between Calle Europa and Avenida de Los Manantiales, will meanwhile go from its current two lanes to four, two in each direction, and a roundabout will be built at the crossing with Calle Rio Subordan.
Children in need get snack bags ONE month after the new school year began, children in need in Malaga Province have just started to receive their free afternoon snack bags at school. The bags, containing fruit, juice, bread, sandwich fillers and biscuits, were eagerly awaited by families in dire economic circumstances, who thanks to the regional
government funded SYGA scheme obtain three free meals per day for their children. Although it took a month for deliveries to start, leading to a number of complaints, this year they began much quicker than for the 2014-2015 school year, when none came through until January.

As of September mess found on the streets will be tested and DNA matches used to track down and fine their owners. Once located, owners will face a fine, which amounts to about €166. This can rise to €500 if the mess is left in public parks or gardens, on pedestrian streets or near schools and health centres, and owners will also be forced to pay €18 for the DNA test used to track them down.

Forgotten treasure found in museum TWO 17th and 18th mantles discovered in old trunk By Eleanor Hawkins ANTEQUERA’S Virgen del Rosario has unexpectedly recovered two of her mantles following discovery by brotherhood members of a forgotten trunk in the municipal museum basements. The two mantles were found when Cofradia del Rosario members went to collect jewels

Once unfolded, the cloth turned out to be two mantles made for the image of the virgin in the 17th and 18th centuries with brocades taken from dresses donated by local noblewomen. The brotherhood has applied
for the mantles to be included in the virgin’s trousseau, which the museum management agreed to. Textile expert Socorro Mantilla was put in charge of creating a conservation plan.

New square to link streets WILL be filled with bougainvilleas and cypress trees
NEW SQUARE: To create more public spaces in the town’s historical centre. By Eleanor Hawkins A NEW square being built in Estepona’s historical centre is to serve a double purpose as it will not only provide a new area for locals to gather but also link two streets, Calle Lozano and Calle Extremadura, resulting in easier access for pedestrians. The council, as part of its Estepona, Garden of the Costa del Sol, purchased an old empty building and demolished it to create
the 200 square metre square, which will be filled with bougainvilleas, cypress trees and orange trees with a fountain in the middle and benches. Weather permitting, the council announced, work should be finished next week. Funds will be included in next year’s local budget for more projects of this type to allow creation of more public spaces in the town’s historical centre.

attended the fair for collaborating to keep the fairground as clean as possible and especially cleaning workers who gave their time to clean up after others busy having fun. “Without their efforts we wouldn’t have achieved such positive results that allow Fuengirola to boast of having the cleanest fair in Andalucia,” Vega said. Fuengirola has a long tradition in recycling and measures to preserve the environ-
ment. The Urban Development Plan (PGOU) obliges new buildings to put rubbish bins underground and the council is constantly working to get bins off the streets and underground. The town currently has more than 1,200 recycling containers, more than 300 of which are for glass. Fuengirola is one of the towns on the Costa del Sol that recycles the most glass, a total of 1,200 tonnes last year for example.

STOPPING DISTANCES: Are 10 times longer in snow and ice.
Preparing your car for winter months WINTER weather in Spain can vary from year to year and snowfall on the south coast is unlikely. However, if your car is parked outside during the worst of the winter months, there are some simple steps you can take to prepare your car for winter. PROTECTING AGAINST ICE AND FROST Lights, heaters and wipers put high demands on the car battery and have to work harder in colder weather. If your battery is over five years old it may be time to shop around for a replacement. Top up your windscreen wash with a more concentrated mix of antifreeze. Give locks and mechanisms a spray with WD40. BEING PREPARED Make sure you have a phone charger in the car should you need to call for assistance. In the event you get stranded, there are some items that will make a difference; carry some blankets, a folding shovel, jump leads, towbar and tow rope. If colder weather is forecast, make sure you have a full tank of fuel, as you may need to keep the engine running to stay warm until help arrives. Check your insurance
policy covers you for emergency breakdown and recovery. Línea Directa provides for Road Assistance in their car insurance policies. This ensures that you receive immediate assistance by phone 24 hours a day. ROAD SAFETY During the winter, driving conditions can become challenging. Winter tyres or cold weather tyres mean shorter stopping distances, reduce aquaplaning and improve handling. Road safety experts recommend 3mm of tyre depth as a minimum for winter driving. WINTER DRIVING Breakdowns are more common in winter. For safe trouble-free driving we recommend gentle manoeuvres, as stopping distances are 10 times longer in snow and ice. To avoid wheel spin, pull away in second gear, easing your foot gently off the clutch. Maintain a constant speed where possible, if you need to break, then do so gently and progressively. Leave plenty of room between you and the car in front. If you get stuck, straighten the steering and clear any excess build up of snow from the wheels. Once your car is moving, maintain a constant speed.

Humour in the business world Talking shop Mike Walsh Mike Walsh was for 20 years Regional Assessment Manager for the Guild of Master Craftsmen, Britain’s biggest quality assurance body for businesses.

AS a ghost-writer I might perhaps get lucky one day. I will be invited to work on the humorous recollections of a door-to-door salesman or lady of the night. Many people with a police, hotel, or entertainment background could possibly make more money by spilling the beans in a book. There is much humour to be found in business and many a true word is said in jest. Who sells the cheapest products, the manufacturer or wholesaler? The security guards do. The employer was asked how many employees he had working for him. “Roughly half,” he replied. Then there was the disgruntled employee who protested that he was the only one being fired for being caught sleeping on the job. His boss agreed but reminded him that he was the only one who did so when sleeping with his wife. We all know the Chinese make everything. A quick-witted wag retorted that the Chinese wall was the only Chinese product that lasted
more than four weeks.’ Banks come in for some humour. The business owner confronts his branch manager. “My cheque has been marked insufficient funds, you or me?” The Spanish civil servant complained to her colleague. “Because of the recession the boss wants us to do the same as three people. Thank God there are five of us.” Talking of Spain leads us to focus on the holiday trade. The boss asks an employee if he likes warm beer. The answer is an emphatic no. “Do you like sweaty women?” Again, the employee shakes his head. “Good,” the boss replies. “You take your holidays in the peak of winter.” A prospective employee was asked why he had left his previous employment. He replied that the company had relocated but refused to tell him where. Tax returns are said to be the most popular fiction in the business community. Shoppers bear the brunt of much jest. I am reminded of the customer who complained that his expensively bought energy saving light bulb didn’t work. “It is an energy saver,” he was told. “It isn’t supposed to work.”
Tax returns are the most popular fiction.
MUCH HUMOUR: To be found in business.

Not an occasion to stay silent I CAN endure constructive criticism but not misconstruction... LEAPY LEE SAYS IT
OTHERS THINK IT AS far as I am concerned, anyone who can’t accept constructive criticism is either a fool or an insecure egotist. I have always welcomed it, and indeed am sometimes flattered that anyone should take the trouble to give their opinion and advice on my efforts as a columnist. Then there are those who completely misconstrue my writing and send both myself and the EWN sometimes insulting diatribes that I generally ignore. But not this time. The letter published last week fell perfectly into this latter category. It accused me of comparing Comrade Corbyn to Charles Manson. In fact, I did no such thing. I was actually comparing his AUDIENCES with those of past cult leaders. Read it again and weep, Good Sir. Don’t worry, I don’t expect an apology! Then this week I received a missive from an ardent Tom Jones fan, a lady who got my statements completely upside down. It was me who stated I would never dream of describing my
PATHETIC: Sir Tom Jones’s damage limitation attempt on The Jonathan Ross Show.
ex-wife as losing her spark. Not a Sir Tom rebuttal as you suggested. Although he did attempt a pathetic damage limitation exercise on The Jonathan Ross Show by saying it was his wife Linda who had made the statement and not him. Another odious attempt to shift the blame and demean his wife even more. As for writing on hearsay, I can assure you, madam, that I knew Tom well in the early years, sharing the same manager and occasionally the same groupies! Our manager Gordon Mills tragically died of cancer when quite young. Gordon’s wife Jo was a beautiful person, who had a great deal of input into Tom’s early years. I myself witnessed the sacrifices both she and Gordon endured while trying to launch his early career. Jo died last year, virtually impoverished, living in a London council flat. At one stage she asked Sir Tom if he could help her out. He ignored her and was, I understand, even heard to remark that he had Jo ‘on his back’! He didn’t even bother attending her funeral. I know you’re a fan, love, sorry to disillusion you. Keep the faith, Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com

OUR VIEW
DESPITE MSM anti-Russian rhetoric, 70 per cent of people back Russia in its war against ISIS Mike Walsh Mike, based in Mediterranean Spain, is an international journalist, author and professional writer.
JOURNALISTS and columnists spin news with intent to influence public opinion. That is not news, but boundaries are crossed when fiction is peddled as hard news. In early October a front page story claimed, ‘Russian jet shot down by Turkish forces.’ It was a lengthy illustrated news story but the only true words; ‘NATO had received no reports.’ The story was not even speculative; it was fiction no more credible than Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland. Western mainstream media has surrendered any pretence at objective reporting. Spin has been replaced by propaganda and blatant falsehoods. They’re worded clever; ‘MH17 was brought down by a Russian made missile’ with obvious inference of Russian being to blame. Failed state Ukraine uses Russian made missiles; thousands in the Middle East have been slaughtered by British-made weapons. Predictably, most people now harvest information from the internet or non-Western sources.
What needs to be brought home to readers is that many journalists are directly or indirectly proxies of government or special interest quangos. It is not a new phenomenon. Journalism has always been infiltrated. There are MSM tricks that put you on your guard. By learning them you become better informed and it can be an amusing pastime. If the message is set between ‘inverted commas’ it is speculation not fact. Returning to the downed Russian jet story it leads with the startling revelation that, ‘according to unconfirmed reports on social media.’ So, apparently this is where Britain’s biggest selling tabloid gets its front page stories from, Facebook. Now, that is not good news. Another MSM ruse is, ‘it has been claimed.’ This is reporter-
speak for ‘I am clueless but here is my spin on it.’ The source of a story is either undisclosed or ambiguous. ‘The information was given on a guarantee of anonymity.’ An alternative is, ‘US officials said this week.’ There are millions of US officials; may we at least have a department? Watch out for ‘one journalist tweeted.’ Which journalist? There is good news; despite MSM anti-Russian rhetoric, 70 per cent of people back Russia in its war against ISIS.

Harmless Halloween fun? PAGAN belief that the spirits of the dead revisit the living every October 31 Colin Bird A weekly look Each week, Colin brings his slightly off-thewall view of the world to the pages of EWN in his own irreverent style.
MY first experience of Halloween was in 1974 when I lived briefly in Pennsylvania. Sure I had heard about it, but in those days it was not much celebrated in the UK and was to all intents and purposes another one of those strange exclusively American traditions. That’s not quite true of course, because All Hallows Eve as it should be correctly termed, has been celebrated one way or another since pre-Christian times. But the form it now takes as a fun night out for children is a fairly recent phenomenon. So it came as an eye opener to experience firsthand the sight of small kids dressed as wolf men and mini Christopher Lees ringing the doorbell and demanding sweets or
ALL HALLOWS EVE: Celebrated since pre-Christian times. face the consequences. I never did discover what those consequences might be, because the friends with whom I was spending the evening kept a large
dish of candy by the front door and seemed to revel in the whole strange experience. This pagan festival was hijacked by the Catholic Church and in the
Speeches released beforehand NOT that many years ago, the only way that the public and press would know about the contents of a politician’s speech would be if there was a leak but nowadays, the contents of almost every speech is released 24 hours or more beforehand. This does raise the question of whether the speaker needs to bother to physically deliver the speech as the content will already have been disseminated, debated, commented upon and dissected on the plethora of ‘rolling news’ stations around the world. Perhaps this is a very clever ploy to allow politicians in particular to either gain the benefit of a positive reaction, defuse any negative reaction or even give themselves time to prepare any defence in advance or change the content of the speech if it has been received very badly. The last budget speech by George Osborne was published in full by newspapers on their websites, before he had even completed his speech in Parliament which does rather suggest the British press is more important and powerful than the members of parliament who are required to vote on it, perhaps because with a decent majority, any vote is simply a rubber stamp. We talk about free speech in the West but this might be a step too far and even if it isn’t, it takes both the excitement and the human element away from the old style speeches by fluent orators.
9th century All Saints Day was moved to its present date, in part to try and halt the spread of paganism. I don’t want to be stuffy about this and spoil the fun. Nevertheless the origins of All Hallows are steeped in the pagan belief that the spirits of the dead revisit the living every October 31, and if gifts of food are not offered, then dire consequences will follow. Hence trick or treating. Significantly October 31 ranks as only second in importance to Walpurgisnacht (April 30) in the Satanist calendar. And whilst most modern day witches are just silly people getting their jollies dancing naked at midnight and having unrestrained nooky, there are some seriously bad and influential individuals out there practising the ‘true craft.’ Something that came home Now we to me in a very real way many want to years ago, and not an experience I hear your views. talk about now.

Journalistic ‘spin’ does not go down well with Tom Jones fan WHO hired you, Leapy Lee, to write an article about Tom Jones? Do you know anything about him at all, or are you working on hearsay? Your second paragraph makes absolutely no sense. You describe his statement as unfeeling and self-serving while he is saying he would never dream of saying anything negative about any of his ‘exes’. And he posted a separate statement saying he was misquoted. So which is it? What part of that sentence do you not understand? I have been an unwavering fan of Tom’s since 1965. While his behaviour in the public eye does not always SEEM exemplary when it comes to women fans, we are ALL taking these out of context because who REALLY KNOWS what goes on in his day-to-day life? Reporters and journalists, like you, can take a word, phrase, or sentence and spin it any way you want to create sensationalism, even though it reads incorrectly. Ginny, Ardent Tom Jones fan since 1965 (Via email) See this week’s Leapy Lee’s column for his response.
Sour grapes Re: Tom Jones WELL. At least he was completely open and up front with his wife. Unlike Mr Pulleyblank who carried on with his best friend’s wife in secret, and as he so eloquently stated, the truth will out. Which it did. Thus resulting in divorce and a mess. Sounds like sour grapes to me. Tom Jones can actually sing which is more than one can say for Mr Pulleyblank. Too bad that Tom Jones took so long to rediscover his roots and brought out the superb album ‘Spirit in the Room’, which Mr Pulleyblank dissed some years ago, and gave the inane and banal pop tunes a rest. Jonathan (Via website) Editor’s note: Forgive our ignorance but we have not heard of Mr Pulleyblank before. Maybe you could enlighten us.

be the solution. You may be right in that much of South-East Russia enjoys a temperate climate; however, I found the winters in South-West Russia (Astrakhan) cold. We actually drove along the Volga as a short cut. There may be parts of Siberia with a reasonable temperature because in the summer it is warm but it has one of the greatest winter/ summer temperature differentials in the world. We drove across it in winter when it is an absolute must for the vehicles to be garaged with heaters underneath to stop our diesel from freezing. However, people do live and work there but it is tough and it will be worse for those people coming from hot climates. Ian (Via website)

Killer cars Re: Labour Day shootings GUNS are not responsible for the 10 deaths at Umpqua College on October 1 any more than cars are responsible for the 395 deaths over the USA Labour Day weekend this year. That’s right, 395 men, women
and children were killed over Labour Day in car accidents. Why didn’t President Obama hold a press conference the day after Labour Day, expressing his grief and anger over the senseless killing of nearly 400 people on the highways during Labour Day Weekend? Keith (Via email)
Re: Helping hands for expats A GLOSSY guide which overlooks a significant failing in the reliability of the Spanish Land Registry. In May 2015, homeowners’ associations from across Spain failed in their bid to persuade the Spanish Senate to vote in favour of an amendment to the law regulating the Land Registry aimed at protecting buyers who purchased a house with a clean bill of health from a Land Registry search (Nota Simple) only to find that the property has planning issues or even a demolition order. Current jurisprudence guarantees the reliability of the Land Registry EXCEPT when it fails to record planning infractions. Maura (Via website)

YOUR STARS SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) With a lot of pent-up energy and not a little determination the month is off to a strong start with you. Be aware, however, that treading on the toes of influential people is not to be advised. Your feeling that you are right is admirable, but be tactful. SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) You of all people understand the importance of the spiritual side of life. Despite being successful in your own right there is the need to bring this to other people. In sharing your experiences this year you come to a better understanding yourself. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) Your practical streak is in full force. Over the next months you will bring much benefit to those around you, in financial terms perhaps, but also spiritually. This week, in itself, shows you how others value your presence and advice. AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) Your lot is to be optimistic and positive. Perhaps in the last few months there was the need to take on the problems of others. However, you absolutely must get a balance here. Concentrate this week on getting your body and mind in good shape. That means being a little self-centred to start with. A good routine is essential and the will to stick with it. PISCES (February 20 - March 20) Your very nature can lead to internal struggles. In the coming months,
LIBRA
(Sept 24 - October 23)
It becomes clear to you that some friends are drifting away. We all have to make changes as life itself is a constantly shifting event. You prefer to hold on to what is familiar and you are not alone in that. At the moment, however, there is much for you to experience, see and feel. Sometimes this brings you discomfort and sometimes unimaginable joy. however, the truth becomes clear. What is outside of your experience now will become a part of your make-up. Any fear that you had of the unknown gradually diminishes. ARIES (March 21 - April 20) There has been a very strong feeling through these last few weeks. This feeling has been one of spirituality. Your thoughts have been deeper than usual and the sense that there is more to life is acute. This, therefore, gives an impetus to everything that you do this week. The need to progress both on the home and business front has rarely been stronger. TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) In the last few weeks there may have been a sense of being not quite in control. That is something to deal with this week. Real progress will only be made when you have faced what is not wanted. You will rid yourself of any negative emotions quickly by facing them. GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) You are a great charmer but it is possible to have too much of a good thing. Is there the possibility that your romantic
life needs tidying up? Perhaps the number of irons that you have in the fire is causing problems? This week, make it a priority to simplify your life. Be strong and straight with others. A clean slate for the future means not letting small matters run away with you. CANCER (June 22 - July 23) The ever-inquisitive part of your brain is in high spirits. Clearly there is much to be known and enjoyed over the coming months. Begin at the beginning though. Before you throw yourself into a spiritual or business endeavour, get the facts. I don't mean what people tell you they think. What you need right now is proof that your interest in a certain area is justified. LEO (July 24 - August 23) Certainly there have been times that you felt crestfallen. Sometimes circumstances bring us down. Avoid believing in the myth of ‘what should have been’. What you are is not what others see but what you feel inside. Success does not depend upon your bank balance but rather more your spiritual progress. VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) The changes that have already started in the way that you see your life have given pause for thought. You are sure that you could have done better but maybe it is not clear how. Take a step back now and see where you came from. Two years ago where were you heading? Do you still want to follow that path? A need to get back on track can start this week.

Come Rain or Come Shine (A Mitford novel)
AS we prepare to put the clocks back this weekend and look forward to an extra hour in bed, we’re taking a look at the top 10 things Daylight Saving Timerelated things you may not know. 1. The first person to put the idea of Daylight Saving Time down in writing was Benjamin Franklin in 1784, yet he later said it was more of a joke than anything else, suggesting that Parisians could save on candles by getting up earlier in the mornings.
IN the latest entry in the hit Mitford series of novels the cast of familiar characters are back and this time it’s for a wedding. Lace Harper and Dooley Kavanagh’s wedding at Meadowgate will not be soon forgotten. It’s June and the celebrations are due to take place in the mountains. Dooley Kavanagh, Father Tim Kavanagh’s adopted son is back and the plans for his wedding include creative catering, a newly swept out barn and a famous country band. All signs point to a unique ceremony and the farm animals will no doubt be watching with interest as the community gathers to celebrate. books@euroweeklynews.com
2. Germany was the first to put the idea into effect on April 30, 1916. The UK and the US followed suit soon afterwards in an attempt to save coal during the First World War. 3. Englishman William Willett took the idea more seriously and in 1908, 1909, 1910 and 1911 proposed it to Parliament, where it was rejected all four times. Sadly he died in 1915 without seeing his plan reach fruition.
App of the Week Meter Creative Lab offers a new app for Android which allows you to show statistics from your phone such as battery level, app usage and missed calls in real time on your standard wallpaper. It’s been dubbed a ‘live wallpaper’ and gives you information you need when you need it. What’s more, when you tilt your phone the shapes and wallpaper are manipulated giving you a peripheral picture of your phone at any point that you check it in the day. Free and available now.
Play on Words SUMMER TIME: Comes to an end this weekend. 6. Many countries put their clocks forward in the spring and back in the autumn, but the dates they do so vary. In the US a new law was passed in 2007 to extend Daylight Saving Time until after Halloween in an attempt to reduce children pedestrian deaths by allowing more daylight in the evening.
4. The Soviet Union first put its clocks forward to observe Daylight Saving Time in 1930 following orders from Josef Stalin. However for some reason they were not turned back for 60 years, meaning during the Second World War and the Cold War nobody was really sure what time it was in Russia.
7. In 2012 a man in Ohio, US, managed to get himself arrested twice in one day at exactly the same time thanks to daylight savings. He was first stopped at 1.08am for driving the wrong way down a oneway street. Then, after the clocks went back from 2am to 1am, the same officers had to arrest him a second time for driving while intoxicated after spotting him behind the wheel again. The time was, again, 1.08am.
5. In September 1999, three terrorists died in Israel when a mix-up after the clocks changed led them to set it to explode an hour earlier than intended.
8. To keep to their timetables, Amtrak trains in the US are not allowed to leave a station before their scheduled departure time. Therefore when the clocks go back all trains running on
Sudoku
time stop at 2am and wait one hour before continuing. When the clocks go forward they suddenly become an hour late and have to do their best to make up the lost hour. 9. In Antarctica it is dark all the time in the winter while in the summer there are months of 24-hour daylight. Yet many research stations there still change their clocks to observe Daylight Saving Time to keep in synch with supply stations in Chile and New Zealand. 10. A study carried out last year at hospitals in Michigan, US, found that hospital admissions increased 25 per cent the Monday after the clocks went forward, while the risk of a heart attack fell 21 per cent when they were put back again. Pedestrians have also been found to be three times as likely to be hit and killed by cars at 6pm just after the Summer Time ends, which researchers believe could be because drivers go through an adjustment period when dusk arrives earlier.

The trip took place on October 14.
CEREMONY: Gibraltar Memorial unveiled in Alrewas, Staffordshire.
Major power cut blacks out entire Rock DAMAGED switchgear the cause AT a b o u t 5 a m o n th e morning of October 14, the whole of Gibraltar was plunged into darkness due to a serious earth fault at the Montague substation. The Rock was left without power for more than four hours. Acc o r d i n g to th e Gibraltar Electricity Authority the damage to the
old switchgear, which was installed in 1972, affected the whole of the electrical distribution network. Once the fault was isolated, the power supply was restored slowly to individual districts across Gibraltar in order to avoid tripping the system, which would have caused further power outages.

Two of my closest friends had already joined so I had a lot of information as to what was required. “Following my initial interview with Sandra Field the Spanish recruitment consultant, I flew to the UK for my follow-up interview at the head office in Tonbridge and to undergo my training induction course. Everyone was great, extremely helpful and the training course excellent! Having not carried out any nursing expertise since the early 80’s this gave me confidence and brought my skills up to date. Training refresher courses are
always available too if you feel a particular skill requires honing! “Within two weeks of completing my induction training I was working with my first client! Since then I have continued to have clients for periods that fit in with my availability, skills and choice of preferred areas of work from my UK base. “Initially, I thought I would do just one year, but now I am into my third year and have no intention to stop for the foreseeable future. I do not think of my career choice with Consultus as a ‘job.’ I consider my role to be an extended family member assisting those who are not, for whatever reason, able to cope on their own.

Knee Surgery - when it doesn’t fix the problem RECENT evidence suggests that as many as 20 per cent of patients who have a Total Knee Replacement (TKR) continue to suffer chronic pain after surgery. The follow up looked into who this 20 per cent might be are there any common themes? • Women • Patients with untreated depression • Higher pain intensities before surgery We know women have a higher incidence of chronic pain. We also now know that pain messages in women are conveyed using a different biological system to men. So it makes sense that women don’t respond as well to the pharmaceutical options, the pain persists and then they get caught in the chronic pain loop. There have been a number of studies linking depression to

Many NHS pain management clinics in the UK use antidepressants as part of their pain treatment plan. And then we get to the last one - higher pain intensities before surgery. As I have spoken about on my blog (www.TheBodyworksClinic.co m/blog), patients with chronic pain feel all more pain more strongly (Central Sensitisation). So even though the original cause of pain is resolved (new knee), their system is still over-

gets pain medication (underlying issue not treated) • Pain persists and gets worse (because the underlying problem was never treated) • Pain becomes chronic pain • Doctor refers patient to a surgeon for a knee replacement • Knee replaced • Central sensitisation ignored so pain persists. So I’ve got knee pain... 1. Get treatment early before the pain becomes chronic. And treat the actual problem, don’t just mask it with painkillers. 2. If you have already had a Knee Replacement or other Knee Surgery and are still in pain, get help. You’re not crazy, you’re not making it up. Your entire nervous system needs to be supported and your body needs help to understand that your knee doesn’t need protecting any more (that’s what pain is, a protection signal).

An early sign
SPECIALIST: Dr Luis Perez Belmonte.
THIS week, Dr Luis Perez Belmonte replies to a reader’s questions on peripheral neuropathy: • Our reader (name supplied) wrote: Sir, I was diagnosed with Peripheral Neuropathy in 2011. I am not Diabetic, other blood tests are all within range for my age, 73. I was prescribed Gabapentin, then changed to Pregabalin. Dosage 150mg in the morning, 300mg at night. Alcohol aggravates it so I do avoid it, anything acidic also makes it worse. The pain is now beginning to travel up my ankles and lower leg. When speaking to doctors it seems not much more can be done to help, and it is something I must live with. I am fairly active, do gardening and play golf. I would like to know your thoughts. Kind regards • The doctor replied: Dear patient: There are many causes of Peripheral Neuropathy. Diabetes mellitus is one of them, but many others should also be ruled out as it is often an early sign of illnesses which can appear months or years later,. Gabapentin and Pregabalin are used to treat the symptoms and alleviate pain. Doses vary and must be adapted to suit the individual therefore I would recommend you see a Specialist in Internal Medicine to have your dosage adjusted if the medication isn’t helping. In addition to these there are other treatments which can be used along with hygiene and foot-care and diet. It is true that alcohol and certain foods can make it work so if you know what your triggers are keep avoiding them. Although it is indeed a chronic condition which cannot be cured, if the exact cause is unknown tests should be carried out to try and find what has started the neuropathy. Physical exercise helps so it is great that you have an active lifestyle. Peripheral neuropathy is a complex condition and difficult to evaluate. I hope my comments are of use. The Coast’s Home GP service - wherever you are - at home - in the office - in the car - on the golf course your GP will get to see you anytime, anywhere. A priceless service at an affordable price.

Don’t let colds and germs stop your fitness training FitFoxy Looking Good, Staying Trim
AT this time of year being in a busy fitness environment can be tricky, as you are consistently exposed to large groups of people in an open plan sweaty environment. People are breathing particles into the air that are being blown around by huge extractor fans or air con units. Throw into the mix the fact that although the gym is (I would hope) cleaned thoroughly twice a day, there is a huge amount of traffic coming through over the course of 16 hours. Gym equipment is being handled by everybody, and in turn can potentially lead to one big germ fest! That said… It’s not my intention to lead you all into a state of germ paranoia either. Bear in mind that our 21st century obsession with clinically clean and 99 per cent germ free isn’t necessarily a good thing. Ironic I know, but it has been suggested that it has in fact contributed to weakening our immune systems. A couple of years ago, I got two really nasty colds within a month of each other, they lasted for around three weeks, progressed to my chest and resulted in an annoying lingering cough and me having to cancel clients and take time off work. Being self-employed, I was none too pleased.
COLDS: Can be passed around. A month later my system had not quite recovered fully, leading me into my second cold. That was it… I thought enough was enough and embarked on a mission to strengthen my immune system, which at this stage was taking a hammering. I had already been dosing myself up with a concoction of cider vinegar, fresh lemons, honey and ginger but it had become a case of ‘after the horse has bolted,’ so I knew I had to work on getting better and rebuilding my immune system. Ever since using these products I have had maybe two minor colds that lasted no longer than a few days. Always carry a small hand disinfectant in your kit bag, and avoid touching your face or mouth when using fitness kit.

Marbella Michelin chef creates second burger for McDonald’s MARBELLA’S very own two-star Michelin chef Dani Garcia has created his second hamburger for McDonald’s which was launched on Tuesday and will be available for a limited period of time. The new burger, McDonald’s declared, is the democratisation of haute cuisine as it takes the essence of top Spanish gastronomy across all the chain’s restaurants in Spain. The new burger, the Grand McExtreme Dani Garcia has been created following the success of Garcia’s first collaboration with McDonald’s the BIBO which was launched in March. The chef worked for months with the chain’s local suppliers to select the best ingredients his new burger: brioche bread, two pieces of top quality beef from Extremadura, Provolone cheese, nachos, red peppers, roast onion and crispy Batavia lettuce with a special secret sauce.
DANI GARCIA: The chef worked for months with local suppliers. To see what customers thought, McDonald’s marketing director in Spain Beatriz Faustino explained, Dani Garcia visited one of the chain’s
largest branches, surprising staff and customers alike with his appearance. “It’s an honour that Dani Garcia has worked with us for
a second time and given us a special product, a revolutionary burger which has evolved from the product of our first collaboration,” Faustino said.

Last Chance Animal Rescue calendar launch GUESTS were treated to dinner and entertainment By John Smith ON Friday evening, The Boardwalk Restaurant played host to the Gala Dinner and launch of the Last Chance Animal Rescue Calendar, a fitting choice considering the calendar is the brainchild of Kara Robertson, manager and part-owner of the popular restaurant in Marbella. Over 100 guests were in attendance and treated to a delicious three-course dinner and music by the talented Lucy Faye. All had one thing in common… to help raise money for a worthy cause. Alongside photographers Rebecca Louise and Gary Tapp, Kara created the calendar to raise funds for Last Chance Animal Rescue, a charity run by Jacqui Ross who works tirelessly to save dogs in El Pariso government pound in Malaga. “We wanted to create a charity calendar with a difference which would appeal to a wider audience, not just people who work or volunteer in the rescue industry,” explained Kara. “Instead of going down the usual route of using images of cute puppies, we asked some of the beautiful people of Marbella to pose quite provocatively with what I like to call a Mutt-i-gree, as the calendar features a variety of rescued pure and mixed-breed dogs, puppies and seniors of all shapes and sizes.” Popular names feature in the calendar including Charley Caradas, owner of The Boardwalk, Slainte and Aqwa Mist nightclub and Amy Carter, star of the new ITVBe series, Life on Marbs.
Kara Robertson and Charley Caradas. Of the funds raised from the sale of the calendar 100 per cent will be going to Last Chance Animal Rescue as the costs were kindly covered by many local sponsors including Golden Tarts, Aqwa Mist, Slainte, The Boardwalk, Dynamic Gym, Matt Black, Eventoshop, Hot Magazine, Guarnieri, Hungry on the Go, Amira and main sponsor Jack Grundy, who paid for the printing. The calendar is now available to purchase for 10€ from Golden Tarts in Puerto Banus and La Cala, The Boardwalk in Marbella and The Boardwalk Creperie in Puerto Banus, Slainte Irish Bar, Reflections, Dynamic Gym and Mick Malone Tattoo Shop, Benalmadena.

Surprising places to get new plants for the garden THERE are more options than local garden centres or nurseries Dick Handscombe
Gardening Corner By Spain’s best known expatriate gardening author living in Spain for 25 years.
I AM often asked ‘Oh, where did you get that plant from?’ and to be sure I ask the same question from time to time of others. And it was often not from the local nursery! So we have compiled the following list of potential sources in case it helps other gardeners. 1. Nurseries where they propagate most of the plants they sell. Often they have stronger and less expensive plants than garden centres that only import their plants. 2. Garden centres where they tend to buy most plants in, but we are careful not to buy over forced plants full of flowers. Better to have just a few buds open. Also we look out for plants that have been acclimatised after arriving from hot houses. 3. Weekly markets especially when supplied by small growers. Often a good source of vegetable seedlings.
GARDEN CENTRES: Plants better to have just a few buds open. 4. Rastros but not always at a plant stall. Interesting plants seem to pop up on all sorts of stalls including antique stalls and they are normally for sale and not for decoration. 5. Agricultural co-operatives
especially for trees and seedlings. 6. Horticultural shops for seeds, bulbs and seedlings. 7. Flower shops often
vegetable especially vegetable sell a few
unusual plants for the garden or containers, as well as house plants that can often be grown on a covered terrace. Look at the pavement displays and you may spot something unusual. 8. Supermarkets especially for house plants, but search out a strong well cared for plant with plenty of flower buds. 9. Swaps with friends as spare plants raised from seed or cuttings. 10. Plant sales at local gardening clubs. Often a good place to look for something a little different and normally inexpensive. 11. Raffle prizes at gardening clubs. If you’re lucky they are just what you want. If not they make a good gift next time you go out for dinner. 12. Verges of roads or pavements. Some well rooted seedlings of succulents, lantanas and trees can be found under overhanging trees or planted walls. Our two strongest mimosa trees came from this source. 13. Local garden rubbish bins or informal tips. Look out for healthy irises, succulents and cacti. What
you’re looking for to fill corners of a new garden may be just what someone with an over planted mature garden is thinning out. 14. Waste grounds and disused quarries, especially close to the sea where migrating birds can drop seeds from north African plants. 15. Neighbours about to build an extension or pool. Often if you don’t ask they will be bulldozed into a skip. 16. From mail order catalogues especially for roses, bulbs, special shrubs and vegetables. 17. Restaurants and Casa Rurales. You may be able to negotiate a cutting or seeds from something different that you spy. And no one can stop you taking away a few seeds from tasty local heritage tomatoes that were in the salad! 18. Jobbing gardeners who propagate to obtain inexpensive plants to fit into the gardens they care for or landscape and to sell the spares to passersby. © Dick Handscombe www.gardenspain.com October 2015
Free your home from clutter ARE you a hoarder? Or maybe your house seems to naturally gravitate towards disorder no matter how much you tidy up. Consider these simple ways, compiled by lifehack.org, to make life easier and unclutter your house. Save all your empty jars and nail or glue the lids to the bottom of a shelf or a table. You can keep all of your smaller collectables together and in easy reach. A dish drying rack is useful for storing children’s colouring books and paints. Shelve the books into the dish rack in the same would you would stack dishes and use the cutlery holder for crayons and pencils. Add shelves to the back of a door. This can work for everything from books to children’s toys. The shelves won’t be seen if you attach them to the inside of a wardrobe door allowing you to tidy up and sort out your clutter without changing the visual of your space.

Beware of scam for free vouchers IN this column, we address some common driving questions and other issues, kindly provided by the Guardia Civil based in Torrevieja, Costa Blanca, who set up the N332 website and Facebook page to help break down barriers.
22 - 28 October 2015 / Costa del Sol
SPAIN’S National Police have warned of the latest scam circulating through social network sites offering free vouchers for Ikea. Consumers are invited to complete a brief survey in exchange for a €150 voucher to spend in the furniture store, but this is nothing more than a scam. Ikea themselves have become aware of the problem and have also circulated a warning through their own sites. The aim of the scam is to extract personal information which could be used for fraudulent means. If you come across anything like this, the advice is to not submit any data and to report the post through the social network site’s own reporting procedure. Signs on bends Directional panels are placed in addition to the warning signs, and let drivers know
how sharp a bend is, allowing them to make the correct decision to reduce their speed. Whether there is one, two or three signs denotes the severity of the bend and therefore how much the driver should slow down. The directional panels are located at the start of the bend. They must be visible at least 100m away from the driver and are there to warn you of the oncoming turn. Most importantly they are there to warn the driver of the speed at which they can take the bend safely. This speed is at least 15km an hour lower than the speed at which the driver is approaching in line with the legal speed limits. If you see one panel, you need to reduce your speed by 15-30 km/h. If you see two, you need to reduce your speed by 30-45 km/h. Finally, if you see three panels you need to reduce your speed by more than 45km/h.

WHEN I was younger... much younger... I used to get up, get dressed, have some sort of brekkie and go off to work. If I needed to tell something to someone during the day I might call them from a phone box (remember them?). I didn’t work in an office in those days, I worked in markets. If I received a letter I’d read it and, when I got round to it, I’d answer it maybe a few days later. If it was in a brown, official-looking envelope I might not even read it! So here we are many years later and how things have changed. Now when I wake up I check my email to see how much Dr Umgoogoo has got for me today. Those Nigerians are so generous! I answer all the real emails immediately and my day has started. Ping! My WhatsApp
goes, my i-message goes and then my Skype. OK, now I have to stop what I’m doing to answer IMMEDIATELY! This is because we have moved into the ‘Right Now’ era. Now not only does everyone know you have received their message or WhatsApp but that you have READ it and you haven’t answered it! Why haven’t you answered it the minute you read it? An hour goes by and you still haven’t answered it. By now I have the right hump. Why are you ignoring me? Why won’t you answer my urgent enquiry into how you are (smiley face)? My daughter will WhatsApp her mum and if she doesn’t answer within five minutes she will WhatsApp me to see if her mum is OK. If I don’t answer, for whatever reason, she will phone me to make sure we both haven’t been wiped out by some horrific accident only to be told we are fine and are in Aldi trying to work out what a HoffleKoffle cake is (it looks chocolatey so that’s OK). We even sit at home and pick up our phone to check no-one has messaged us and we missed the ping. Sorry, got to go, someone’s WhatsApping me and I need to reply immediately!

Flying with pets is getting more common NIGHT NIGHT: Dogs in beds not popular with Spaniards.
Pet-owners in Spain not keen on sharing beds By Eleanor Hawkins FOURTEEN per cent of dog owners and 33 per cent of cat owners in Spain share their beds with their pets, a survey by Houzz home improvement website has revealed. Yet the habit was far less popular in Spain than in other countries, the survey revealed. In the US, 41 per cent of owners questioned admitted to letting their dogs share their beds. More than 10,000 people across the world, 550 of them in Spain, were included in the survey which concluded that cats are far more likely to rule households than dogs. Another conclusion of the survey was that pets are good
for both children’s and adults’ health with the most commonly mentioned benefits being the happiness they bring to individuals (82 per cent) and families (65 per cent) and their help in controlling stress-levels (50 per cent). In Spain, 76 per cent of those questioned admitted to having set aside an area of their homes for their pets to eat, sleep and play and 28 per cent said they had carried out building work to adapt their homes to their pets’ needs. When asked for the negatives, 76 per cent of owners said the worst thing about their pets was the hair they shed, 36 per cent complained about smell and 30 per cent about extra dirt.
DOGS must be microchipped and have a valid pet passport

WITH more and more people owning properties in Spain and spending a large part of their year here, pet travel has increased dramatically, with owners preferring to bring their animals with them rather than leave them at home for any length of time. Pets accompanying their owners on a trip to Spain can be accepted as luggage when the corresponding excess baggage tariff has been paid (regardless of the class in which the passenger is to fly). As a general rule, these animals must be checked in and loaded into the hold of the aircraft, where they will be placed in a container (which some airlines can provide) but to be on the safe side it is worth purchasing your own carrier which is IATA approved (and will have a sticker or label stating this). As only certain airlines and airports in the UK have the facilities to transport pets (BA and Monarch being the main carriers), when making a booking for you and your
BON VOYAGE: Pets accompanying owners can be accepted as luggage.
pet, check first that the necessary transport can be arranged. Animals must carry the correct documentation, either with a pet passport or veterinary certificate or with all required vaccinations (in some countries with an evaluation of antibodies). All animals are identified by a microchip, and you need the correct documentation for this. Preparing pets for travel can be a lengthy business, with all the health checks, docu-
mentation and pet passport. So if you are thinking about bringing you pet into Spain make sure you leave plenty of time to make the necessary arrangements. You can find more information on the Pets Travel Scheme (PETS) for the UK at www.defra.co.uk. Guide dogs trained to accompany a passenger with a disability will usually travel in the cabin, unless prohibited by national regulations or the airlines.
Madrid says no to stray slaughter EUTHANASIA stopped MADRID’S strays and abandoned animals will no longer be sent to their deaths thanks to
a new draft law which was approved last week. The decision was approved by the Madrid Community’s Governing Council, which gave the green light to a draft law on pet protection which establishes a ban on putting abandoned animals down. The zero slaughter policy, which had already been put into effect at the Madrid Community Integral Animal Refuge Centre, will now be enforced in all other municipal animal shelters within the region.
REPRIEVE: Strays and abandoned animals safeguarded.

We are nationally registered by the Spanish Ministry of the Interior (164640) but only with your support can we give the equine a voice.

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.

Tesla launch ‘autopilot’ TESLA has launched a software update for its vehicles enabling the cars to have an ‘autopilot’ mode. While not fully self-driving, the software means the Model S and new Model X can ‘automatically steer down the highway, change lanes, and adjust speed in response to traffic.’ Tesla chief executive Elon Musk said “It should not hit pedestrians, hopefully. It should handle them well.” He added that if the car is involved in a collision, the driver is still liable.

New Mercedes C-Class Coupé LATEST version offers a high level of suspension comfort By John Smith THANKS to its athletic and sporty design, the new C-Class Coupé which looks stylish on the road and embodies modern luxury is now available to order with a starting price around €35,500 and delivery expected in December. As is normal with most cars,
the basic price can easily rise depending upon the extras required, but the manufacturer considers that this latest version offers a high level of suspension comfort, low road roar and tyre vibration, agile handling, and driving pleasure. As the sportiest variant of the C-Class, it has a striking front
section featuring diamond radiator grille and long bonnet. A high beltline and frameless doors with free-standing exterior mirrors underscore the sporty character as does the suspension, which is 15 millimetres lower than that of the Saloon, and features 17-inch tyres as standard.
Powerful and efficient fourcylinder petrol and diesel engines with ECO start/stop function provide for sporty performance and driving pleasure. All are compliant with the Euro 6 emissions standard and compared with their predecessors they consume up to 20 per cent less fuel.
COUPÉ: Looks stylish. IN a report published on October 15, the government agency supporting the spread of electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles - Go Ultra Low highlight the fact the sale of electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles has doubled in the UK in the first nine months of the year. According to the agency, a total of 20,992 motorists bought an electric vehicle (EV) or plug-in hybrid car (PHEV) during that time. It shows that this sector of the market is growing steadily.

BMW patrons of the arts THE KIKAI: A very interesting concept.
Toyota unveils Kikai concept PART of the fun of the different motor shows is the unveiling of different concept cars which may or may not ever hit the streets and the forthcoming Tokyo Motor Show promises some unusual exhibits including this latest concept from Toyota, the Kikai. After one wades through all of the words in the Zenlike press releases which concentrates on the beauty and harmony of design, it is quite apparent that the designers have had a great deal of fun whilst gaining inspi-
ration from science fiction movies. Whilst it is easy to mock the ‘puff,’ the actual concept itself is very interesting and relies on the use of compressed hydrogen which can be generated from a wide range of raw materials, and is easy to store, making it a promising future energy source. In addition to the vehicle’s own hydrogen tank, the car can also generate electricity directly from hydrogen stored outside the vehicle. The vehicle can thus be
transformed into a stable source of electric power for use at home or away. The fuel cell stack is mounted between the front tyres, and the hydrogen tank behind the rear seat. Together with the adoption of independent in-wheel motors in all four wheels, this allows for a spacious cabin despite the vehicle’s compact vehicle body.

THE BMW Group was the partner of the 13th edition of Frieze Art Fair, one of the most important fairs of contemporary art worldwide, which took place at Regent’s Park between October 14 and 17. Since 1975, 17 different well-known artists including Roy Lichtenstein and David Hockney have been commissioned to paint a BMW car with their own unique artwork and individual cars are housed in museums and collections around the world.
They were all shown together in the BMW museum in Munich for the 35th Anniversary of the first of these cars but are no longer together. As part of their support for the fair, BMW arranged for two of the cars, one by Andy Warhol from 1979, and the most recent by Jeff Koons from 2010, to be shipped in for display in London for the few days of the fair.
