Corrupt cash call MARBELLA’S mayor has called on Spain’s government to help the city recover hundreds of millions of euros lost to corruption and residents may have influence on how it is spent.

Angeles Muñoz, who is also a conservative Partido Popular (PP) senator for Malaga Province in Spain’s Parliament, said there was still more than €300 million missing from city coffers.

Muñoz added she had tabled a motion with the Senate’s Local Entities Commission which called for all available resources to be used to recover “every last euro” extorted from Marbella.

“We will get justice for Marbella by regaining its lost money for the residents of the city,” she said.

Recognition push Spain floats EU Palestine acceptance

By Joe Gerrard THE Spanish Foreign Minister has said his country could put forward a motion in the European Parliament that would commit the European Union (EU) to recognise an independent Palestine.

Josep Borrell added the Spanish government would still consider recognising the Middle Eastern territory if the bloc refused to back the proposal.

It comes as left-wing parties in Spain, some of which back the Partido Socialista (PSOE) minority government, have reportedly begun pressuring senior officials to support full Palestinian statehood.

Opponents are concerned Israel could recognise an independent Cataluña in retaliation if Spain goes ahead with the plan.

Borrell said he planned to

launch an “intensive” consultation process with his opposite numbers in EU member states with the view to securing a timetable for the initiative.

“The issue is on the table. It is a momentous decision, the consequences and effects of which must be studied. These are being

analysed,” the minister said.

The EU currently officially backs a two state solution to the Palestinian question which would see an independent Palestine co-exist alongside Israel.

Borrell’s comments were welcomed by Palestinian authorities who said the move would help bring peace to the territory.

“The determination of Spain to recognise the Palestinian state and statements from their Foreign Minister represent direct steps towards peace, the end of Israeli occupation and stability in the Middle East,” the authority said.

Ahmed Abulgueit, Secretary General of the Arab League, said Spain should recognise Palestinian statehood even if the EU does not back the move.

Angel Mas, the head of the Spain-based pro-Israeli Action and Communication on the Mid-

dle East (ACOM), said there was a “real possibility” Tel Aviv may recognise Cataluña’s independence in response.

Emmanuel Nahshon, Israel’s Foreign Minister, said he did not comment on “speculation” when asked about the proposal.

Palestine is recognised by 136 United Nations member states but many such as Spain, Britain and the United States do not.

Palestinian statehood is seen as a sensitive issue as much of the territory it claims is now administered and settled by Israel.

The UN has branded Israel’s presence an “occupation” which they dispute.

Basquing in glory

Man held A COURT has remanded a 61year-old man in custody in connection with an alleged attempted robbery at gunpoint at Torremolinos’ water park. National Police officers arrested the suspect in the San Andres area of Malaga City and have been tracing him since the incident took place in July.

Death ruling AUTHORITIES in Alhaurin de la Torre are set to appeal against a €120,000 payout to the family of a woman who died in a car crash in 2010. A Malaga Court ruled the council was liable for the 72-year-old’s death by not signposting road works leading to the car plunging from the road.

Flats fire EMERGENCY SERVICES evacuated a four-storey block of flats in Estepona last Sunday after a fire broke out in a garage there at around 9.45pm. Andalucia’s 112 emergency services line said the blaze, which broke out on Calle Espronceda, left two cars and power circuits damaged but no one was injured.

Eviction row JUDGES and staff at a courthouse in Estepona may have to leave the site this Monday after the town’s council said it wanted to use the building for social services. Junta de Andalucia sources said the council could not evict court staff but added it was seeking a new location.

Drugs bust NATIONAL POLICE officers have seized more than 920 marihuana plants as well as several items used to grow the drugs in a raid in Cartama. A 27-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the haul and on suspicion of defrauding the electricity grid at the site to power the plantation.

BOTTOMS UP: Basque cider (sidra) has been served at the event.

The event is also seen as an opportunity to showcase the city’s Basque cultural heritage. A big part of Basque culture is culinary

and locals were on hand to serve up the best of what the region, known to them as Euskadi, has to offer.

The Hazi Foundation set up an area dedicated to showcasing the region’s culinary heritage outside the Kursaal auditorium where the festival is being held.

Kayak rescue A MAN was pulled from a river in Benahavis with serious injuries last Sunday after he fell into the water while kayaking.

Emergency services sources said the man was practising the water sport with a group of people on the Guadalmina River in the El Charco de las Mozas area.

The 112 emergency services line was alerted at around 1.30pm after he fell into the water. Firefighters were then despatched to the area.

The rescue that followed took around two hours. Personnel pulled the man out of the river before placing him on a floating stretcher and taking him to shore.

The man told firefighters he was in ‘intense’ pain in his shoulder area so he was immobilised on the stretcher to prevent further injuries.

Paramedics who provided treatment said it had been dislocated in the course of the fall.

FOREIGN VISIT: Sanchez (centre, left) met with Trudeau (left) in Montreal.

PM’s Canada trip SPAIN’S Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez travelled to Canada last weekend for meetings with his counterpart Justin Trudeau who said his country backed a ‘united’ Spain when asked about Catalan independence.

Sanchez’s visit was the first time a Spanish Prime Minister had visited Canada since 2002.

The two leaders inspected a guard of honour, held a series of meetings and spoke to the press and public.

Trudeau said during a joint press conference he had confidence in Spain’s government and people being able to find a solution to the ongoing drive for Cataluña’s secession.

He was responding to a question on whether Catalans should be able to vote in a legal independence referendum as people in Quebec had done in 1980 and 1995.

“Obviously I recognise this is a delicate internal matter and I have confidence in the Spanish people and all different governments to move forward with a way that is respectful of freedom of expression and of the values of human rights, the rule of law and the Spanish constitution,” Trudeau said. Sanchez said on Twitter the Spanish and Canadian governments both shared progressive

goals on human rights and climate change. “We will design ways for our countries to work more closely together to build economies that work for everyone and advance gender equality,” he said.

The two leaders held a series of talks in Montreal. They approved a ‘Canada-Spain Co-operation Agenda’ which laid out plans to work together on a host of issues to achieve ‘a safer, more peaceful world.’ Both leaders also took part in Canada 2020’s Global Progress summit where they discussed security, diplomacy and human rights among other issues.

Trudeau also presented Sanchez with a picture of former Spanish Prime Minister Calvo Sotelo hosting his counterpart, Trudeau’s father Pierre, in Spain in 1982.

Sanchez said receiving the framed photograph was an “emotional moment.”

Trudeau’s comments on Cataluña follow Quebec parties’ unanimous passage of a motion which condemned what they claimed was Spain’s ‘authoritarian’ approach to last October’s independence referendum.

Some in Quebec argue the French-speaking Canadian province should also become independent.

OUR VIEW

Trying to be helpful WHILST most people understand that the flood of economic migrants into Europe is unsustainable in the long run, it would be a very hard hearted person who didn’t offer a hand to a drowning human being.

This effectively is what is happening as the last privately managed rescue ship in the Mediterranean, the Aquarius (which is run by two charities Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and SOS Mediterranée) has had its Panama maritime flag removed and once it returns to port, it will be unable to leave again unless it obtains a new flag.

The charities blame the Italian government for putting pressure upon Panama to remove the flag and although the Italians deny this, influential Interior Minister Matteo Salvini, has described the aid boats as a ‘taxi service’ for migrants.

It is a very difficult situation as many people find it hard to understand how these migrants are able to obtain the thousands of dollars needed to pay people smugglers to take them to Europe and also how they cannot follow the news to learn about the dangers that they are likely to face.

Much needs to be done to resolve problems at home but with Syria and Yemen still at war and with Eritrea only recently making life slightly easier for their young men and women, the apparently never ending number of illegal migrants will just carry on.

Spain is now trying to help but there are fears that if it becomes too welcoming then the trickle will become a flood and unemployment which is bad enough still will rocket again.

Now we want to hear your views.

AUTHORITIES in La Linea de la Concepcion launched the first of a series of events this week that commemorate the closure of its border with Gibraltar almost 50 years ago.

Councillors including Mayor Juan Franco and culture spokesperson Encarni Sanchez unveiled the programme which began on Tuesday. June 8 next year marks the 50th anniversary of the border’s closure.

Franco and Sanchez displayed a banner that will hang outside the town’s Palacio de Congresos during the events.

France said the events were designed to raise awareness of what had happened during the closure which lasted for 13 years.

“It is not to celebrate but rather to remember what happened and avoid repeating it, especially in uncertain situations such as what could happen as a result of Brexit, he said.”

The council has created a website and has invited members of the public to send in testimonies, photographs and memorabilia as part of the events. It is part of a project called ‘50 Years: Many Stories to Count.’

Youth assault probe

PROSECUTORS have requested that a father and son due to stand trial over the assault of a 17-yearold in Estepona each be jailed for four years if found guilty.

Malaga prosecutors claimed in their initial submissions to the Provincial Court that the younger defendant, now aged 22, had approached the alleged victim on Avenida de España in 2014.

An argument broke out between the defendant and the other youth aged 17 at the time.

Prosecutors claimed the pair had long-standing disagreements.

The defendant called his 48-year-old father to the scene who is said to have began behaving

aggressively towards the youth.

Both defendants then began punching the alleged victim who tried to defend himself. The 48-year-old kneed him in the mouth and he fell to the ground, prosecutors claimed.

The alleged victim was left with two broken teeth and other wounds that took 35 days to heal. He needed dental treatment and surgery for the injuries, according to prosecutors.

Prosecutors have requested that the defendants each be ordered to compensate the alleged victim with €2,982 if found guilty. They may also be required not to go within 300 metres of him or communicate with him for five years if convicted.

‘Parkour’ boy plunges eleven floors to death A STUDENT has plunged to his death in Spain while allegedly practising parkour on a construction site in Madrid.

The 17-year-old boy fell 11 floors to his death according to a National Police investigation when he attempted risky jumps and ‘parkour’ with friends.

Parkour participants aim to get f r o m o n e p o i n t to another in a complex environment, without assistive equip m e n t a n d i n th e fastest and most efficient way possible.

The incident occurred on a high-rise building on Holy Guardian Angel Avenue, Madrid.

CONNECTING IDEAS: Brunel University is undertaking pioneering research.

Strait talking BRIDGING the Strait of Gibraltar may now be possible using a mathematical modelling technique to identify designs for structures that can span ever further distances.

As with Brunel’s renowned Clifton suspension bridge near Bristol, most long span bridges are designed in that way.

But the longer that the bridges become, the more their structure works simply to support their own weight, rather than the traffic crossing it.

Researchers at Brunel University are therefore exploring novel designs using a set of spokes like a bicycle wheel, connected by cables instead of single pillars.

In theory this can spread force along the cables more efficiently, meaning less material, less weight and a longer span.

The researchers believe more work is needed to analyse complicating factors like wind loads and buildability.

A CHRISTIAN charity has partnered with a United States university for a project which is set to see students from the country travel to Malaga Province to volunteer with migrants.

Christar International has launched the G5 Spain initiative in collaboration with the Virginia-based Liberty University. It is scheduled to begin in January next year.

The project is due to see

hundreds of students travel to towns across the province.

They are set to volunteer with projects to help migrants and refugees, the charity said in a statement.

Brent McHugh, of Christar, said: “The community has given a resounding welcome to this initiative and I look forward to the lasting impact it will make.”

Those on the scheme are due to complete internships and

study placements alongside their volunteer work. Students will also have an opportunity to experience Spanish culture, Christar said.

The charity currently works with migrants, refugees and other displaced peoples by providing them with food, education and job skills.

Liberty University has around 110,000 students including more than 900 from outside the United States.

Proposal to charge customers to try on new clothes A NEW proposal suggesting customers should be charged to use fitting rooms in highstreet shops has been offered by a minister in Spain.

The idea, which originated in Castilla y León, would aim to minimise customers trying on new clothes in shops and then ordering the same item online from another retailer at a cheaper price, usually a multinational online warehouse.

Castilla y León’s Minister of Economy and Finance, María del Pilar del Olmo advocated the plan in a press conference at the Sectoral Trade Conference in order to address the challenges of the digital market on high street retailers.

María del Pilar del Olmo claims ‘big companies that sell on the internet’ are responsible for the decline of high street shops in Spain and she sug-

gests her ‘revolutionary’ approach would benefit smaller retailers and prevent large multinationals with online mega-stores from overwhelming the market.

The Castilla y León Minister pledges to ‘work hard’ to ensure her proposal becomes a reality. Whilst only a proposal at regional level, it remains to be seen if other communities will follow María del Pilar del Olmo’s idea.

RYANAIR: Police met the flight from the UK to Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport.

POLICE were called to resolve a dispute between a passenger and Ryanair when his flight from the UK to Spain landed on the Costa del Sol. Bob Hamilton, who stands 6ft 2in tall, asked the cabin crew to waive his £17 bar bill after being refused an extra legroom seat that he had already paid for.

Instead, Mr Hamilton, 64, said the airline called the police when his flight from London Stansted landed at Malaga-Costa del Sol Aiport to make him cough up.

Mr Hamilton claims that when he boarded the flight he found someone was sitting in his seat. He said a crew me mbe r told him the ma n w a s a

Ryanair employee and Mr Hamilton would have to find somewhere else to sit due to ‘safety reasons.’

He reluctantly agreed to move and found a seat towards the rear of the plane.

Inflight he ordered two beers and two small bottles of wine at a cost of £17.

But his suggestion that the bill be waived in return for what he paid for an extra-legroom seat - that he didn’t get - was rejected.

He said he was told he would have to claim his £20 back online.

Mr Hamilton refused to pay, and on landing in Spain, he was met by two police officers.

He said: “They were very pleasant and were laughing about it.

“In the end, one of the crew came out wi t h a car d m achi ne and I was forced to pay up.”

Mr Hamilton said that on his return to the UK he twice tried to get his £20 refund but the airline refused on both occasions before eventually paying up.

A Ryanair spokesperson claimed that Mr Hamilton was ‘disruptive’ and said he was asked to move one row forward to seat 16A - another exit seat near the wing which would have cost the same to reserve.

But Mr Ham i l t on sai d: “Thi s r esponse is absolutely false. I was never offered 16A.”

British man stabbed in Costa del Sol attack SCUFFLE: Tensions flared as the MHS Talent left Gibraltar.

Warning flare fired A TUG boat accompanying HMS Talent, a Royal Navy submarine, fired a warning flare at a Spanish vessel after it came too close.

When the Trafalgar-class nuclear submarine was being towed out of the port of Gibraltar it encountered a Spanish Guardia Civil vessel on patrol.

After repeated radio attempts from the nuclear submarine to warn the patrol boat off over the radio were ignored, the accompanying tug-boat fired a flare in the direction of the advancing Guardia Civil.

The flare was enough to ward

off the Guardia Civil patrol boat and it promptly retreated granting the HMS Talent a clear passage out of the port.

Fabian Picardo, Gibraltar’s Chief Minister remarked: “The dangerous incident today involving the departure of HMS Talent is regrettable.”

He stressed the importance of adhering to the bay’s strict sailing code, stating: “It serves to remind everyone of the importance of following the rules of navigation and recognising the respective jurisdictions that operate side by side to each other in the Bay of Gibraltar.”

NATIONAL POLICE are investigating a knife attack on a 24-year-old British man on the Costa del Sol. The attack took place in Puerto Banus near Marbella, very close to the area that 10 da ys e a rlie r a 35-ye a r-old B ritis h ma n, Craig Moran, was ‘kneecapped,’ stabbed and suffered horrific cuts to his face after being abducted in a gang-related incident.

In the latest violent attack, which occurred last Wednesday afternoon around 6pm, the victim was stabbed twice in the legs by an as-

sailant who fled the scene in a getaway vehicle.

The stab victim was taken immediately to Marbella’s Costa del Sol Hospital, which was the same hospital Craig Moran was rushed to 10 days prior.

The latest stabbing took place in the centre of Puerto Banus, an area frequented by British holidaymakers.

It is understood that the latest victim, who remains unidentified, is refusing to cooperate with Spanish police and no arrests have yet been made.

CAVE QUERY: The new research is a challenge to perceptions about the paintings.

Holes found in cave theory A NEW study of paintings in three caves in Spain suggests that they are not as old as previously thought, and casts doubt on the theory that they are the work of Neanderthals.

The research, published in the Science journal, is fo-

cused on the paintings in the caves of Ardales (Malaga), Maltravieso (Caceres) and La Pasiega (Cantabria).

Until now, the art works have been attributed to Neanderthals from the Upper Palaeolithic period (around 60,000 years ago), after re-

search from physicist DL Hoffmann of the Max Plank Institute in Germany.

The new study explains that Hoffman’s dating was done with the Uranium-Thorium method, which is normally used in large stalagmite formations and offers

very reliable data.

However, in small samples of very fine crusts of calcite granites, ‘it is very difficult to have reliability and the thorium found is a contaminating element,’ leading to the ‘ageing’ of the dating.

British woman hospitalised NATIONAL POLICE are investigating an alleged violent attack in Spain which left a British woman in hospital suffering from serious head injuries.

Police confirmed the victim to be a British tourist who is now reportedly recovering in the University Hospital Nuestra Señora de Candelaria in Santa Cruz, Tenerife after being admitted on Monday.

It is alleged a Moroccan bar worker attacked her in her holiday apartment in a popular resort on the island.

Reports claim that the 20-year-old Moroccan man tried to force himself on the victim after she invited him into her holiday apartment.

It is alleged the man violently assaulted the woman when she refused his advances.

The woman has reportedly sustained severe head injuries and has not yet been able to provide an official statement to the Spanish police. Police have not confirmed the identity or age of the woman.

Her alleged attacker, whose identity has not been revealed either, remains in police custody.

A judge agreed to extend his remand period whilst a police investigation is ongoing.

A court official has revealed: “Investigating Court Number Three in Arona, acting as a duty court, has decided to extend the remand of a 20-year-old held in the municipality of Adeje as the suspected author of a crime of assault which has yet to be fully specified.

“The victim is still in hospital with injuries which are compatible with a physical assault.

“The court hopes to be able to decide tomorrow whether to place this suspect, who is of Moroccan origin, under formal judicial investigation and what crimes for.”

Bullfight poll call THE leader of leftist party Podemos, Pablo Iglesias, has proposed a national referendum should be held so the Spanish population can decide if bullfighting has a place in Spain’s future.

In an interview with Spanish TV channel Telecinco, Iglesias admitted it would be impossible to ban the Spanish tradition ‘by decree,’ but offered that ‘it would be good to ask people.’

Iglesias suggested he would like to ‘democratise’ the debate on bullfighting, this could take place in the form of a referendum.

The Podemos leader said he would advocate: ‘asking citizens in their villages or in certain territories or, why not, a day in Spain, if the majority wants bulls or does not want them.’

Bullfighting in Spain is a tra-

dition which splits opinion.

This summer there has been several controversial incidents involving the animals.

Last week a bull was shot dead after breaking free and injuring spectators during a bull running event in Cuenca.

However, there is no confirmation that Iglesias’ proposed referendum would extend to bull events based outside of the bullring.

BULL TALK: Iglesias will push for a referendum on bullfighting.

Ryanair chairman David Bonderman has also been re-elected at the A GM wi t h 7 0 . 5 p er c e n t o f votes in favour.

The company did a U-turn permitting the press into the meeting after initially refusing them access.

O’Leary joked as the AGM got

Shareholders approved all resolutions by large majorities.

Ryanair Holdings Plc added, “As previously disclosed in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report, Charlie McCreevy and Declan McKeon chose not to seek reelection at the AGM. Chairman David Bonderman sincerely thanked both Charlie and Declan for their substantial contribution over the last eight years and welcomed both Emer Daly and Róisín Brennan as new members of the Board.”

FALL: The British holidaymaker fell over the top of a roadside barrier near the Cala En Porter area.

Brit plunges to death A BRITISH holidaymaker has died after falling over the edge of a steep roadside in Spain.

Reports suggest the 72-yearold Brit, while holidaying in Menorca, tripped and fell over the edge of a barrier and plummeted 12-feet to waste ground below.

The tragic incident occurred during the early hours of Saturday morning after the man had spent a night out with a friend.

He was apparently returning to his hotel in the popular Cala En Porter area, a beach resort on the island’s south coast.

A passer-by discovered the

man’s body at around 10.30am on Saturday and emergency services arrived shortly after.

The unnamed holidaymaker is thought to have been staying on the island with his wife.

As expected, Spanish police launched an investigation into the death. However, Guardia Civil officers have already stated that early signs suggest the incident was an accident. A postmortem, expected to be conducted this weekend will determine how much the man had been drinking before his fall and whether excess alcohol was a contributing factor to his death.

N ATIO N A L PO LIC E ha ve shut down a Nigerian organisation involved in human trafficking and sexual exploitation, and released 10 women forced to work as prostitutes in Costa del Sol. In a press statement, officers said ‘the victims were captured’ in their home country and transferred by different routes to Spain, where ‘they were prostituted in hoste s s c lubs in M a la ga ’ a s wel l as ot her provinces.

The females are said to have been told they were in debt between €25,000 and €55,000 by the gang, and had to work it off in ‘subhuman conditions.’

Fifteen members of the group responsible were arrested as part of one of 500 operations against trafficking and sexual exploitation which have resulted in 1,200 arrests and the release of 223 victims.

Officers have also made 1,250 communications with foreign offices and specialised organisations to tackle the crime in a multidisciplinary manner.

The latest investigation began in 2017 after a victim claimed she had been ‘recruited’ in Nigeria earlier in the year. In a police statement, she said that after being brought to Spain, she was sexually exploited for eight months in the Gualdahorce area of Malaga.

Inquiries found that the organisation was run by a woman in Nigeria who preyed on financially vulnerable females, demanding huge amounts of money under the pretence the cash would be easy to pay off in a matter of months, once they were in Spain.

A police source said the commitment was consolidated through voodoo rituals, leading the women to believe that they and their families would suffer illness that could lead to death if the ‘agreement’ was not honoured.

It was added: “The victims were flown directly from Nigeria to Malaga to ensure they arrived quickly and the use of the plane increased the debt demanded of them.”

A helpline, 900 105 090, has been set up for victims and people with relevant information.

Medical staff were astonished to find out that her pain was being caused by an infection caused by a decomposing turtle inside her body.

National Police were called to the medical centre after the discovery was made to take the woman’s statement.

The woman claims she first realised a strange sensation in her private area two days prior during a party with fellow Brits on the Canary island. The woman assured the National Police she had no idea how the turtle came to be inside of her. It is understood that the British woman remains in hospital receiving treatment for the infection.

Spain rescues more than 400 migrants SPAIN’S maritime rescue service has said it rescued more than 440 migrants from 15 flimsy boats, mostly off the southern coast of the country at the weekend.

In their latest tweet, Salvamento Maritimo said that one of their vessels had re s c ue d 117 pe ople, i ncl udi ng 34 women and five children from the Alboran sea and were taking them to Malaga port.

It is estimated that nearly 300 migrants have died in waters separating Spain and Africa so far in 2018, according to the U nite d Nat i ons, and over 1,600 have died this year trying to cross the Mediterranean.

Meanwhile, the two humanitarian groups which operate Aquarius Two, the last private rescue vessel in the central Mediterranean said Panama had pulled the ship’s registration following Italian complaints.

The Panama Maritime Authority said it was acting after the ‘principal com-

plaint came from Italian authorities’ about the ship’s captain.

It also noted that maritime authorities i n Gi br al t ar over t he sum m er t ook Aquarius Two off its registry and had requested that it suspend its operations.

But I t al y’s ant i - m i gr ant i nt er i or minister, Matteo Salvini, denied that allegation in a tweet saying ‘no pressure at al l on Panam a f or t he Aquar i us Two, I don’t even know Panama’s area code.’

Elder abuse on the increase

And t h e Na t i o n a l P o lic e fig u res show the most violent incidents occurred in Andalucia.

In response to the shocking statistics, a parliamentary spokesperson said that the increase in the number of complaints of ‘inter-family abuse’ could also be attributed to a decrease in the ‘black figure’ of this type of violence, which now has greater visibility, rather than just more incidents.

The report shows that in 2001, there were 3,603 elderly victims of abuse. A year later 3,605 reports were made, rising to 3,820 in 2013 and 3,933 in 2014.

Andalucia saw the greatest number o f v io len t in c ide nts in 2017, w ith 1,146 attacks, followed by the community of Madrid where there were 739 recorded assaults, a 52 per cent rise in six years.

In Valencia there was a 32.3 per cent hike in complaints from 548 to 725, and in the Murcia region, police dealt with 193 complaints, a 45 per cent increase since 2011.

A sixth of the Spanish population of 46.5 million are over retirement age, which represents 8.7 million people.

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), elder abuse is defined as ‘a single or repeated act that causes harm or suffering to an elderly person, or the lack of appropriate measures to prevent it, which occurs in a relationship based on confidence, whether physical, psychological, emotional, sexual or economic.’ It also recognises that abuse of the elderly is an ‘important public health problem.’

Campaign intensifies

TALKS: Officers are taking preventative measures to try to stamp out bullying in schools.

THE fight against bullying is being stepped up by National Police in schools.

As of this week, officers across the country will be raising awareness of this and other problems during talks aimed at pupils and teachers.

Data compiled by the Central Unit of Citizen Participation, which develops prevention and safety work in schools throughout Spain, shows that a ‘high percentage’ of school children be-

tween 11 and 16 years of age has at some point been the victim of bullying, mostly mild or less serious.

It was pointed out that the rise in new technologies and mass access to the Internet has pushed the problem into a digital environment, meaning any situation can be quickly made viral, extending and prolonging the suffering of victims.

Within the framework of the ‘master plan for the coexistence of safety in educa-

tion centres and their setting,’ the police are giving lectures in schools across the country.

The topics being covered are harassment, drug and alcohol consumption, violent gangs, racism, violence against women, discrimination and the risks of new technologies and social media networks.

In the last 12 months, 5,000 such talks have been held, and the National Police want to build on this figure.

And they found that excessive and heavy drinkers have a greater number of problems relating to the feelings of their partners and recognising their facial emotions, than non-alcohol users and non-violent men.

Published in the journal Alcohol, the study aims to find ways to help drinkers stick to treatment available, as well as detecting the likelihood of relapse in violent users who appear in court.

Professors Angel Romero, Marisol Lila and Luis Moya Albiol, together with doctoral candidate Sara Vitoria, studied 100 men split into three groups.

Two of those were made up of men convicted of gender violence, one with

STUDY: One hundred men took part. high and another with low alcohol consumption. The third group consisted of men with no criminal record.

And the study showed that aggressors with excessive and continued use have a greater mental rigidity, are more likely to be inhibited, have a poor attention capacity and a lower working memory.

A spokesperson said the findings will be vital when a quick decision has to be made about a violent offender in court.

And they claim that the results could help prevent domestic violence, making it easier to detect individuals who are more likely to commit this type of crime.

War files to be released CREDIT: Wikimedia Commons

42 EWN

by Tara Rippin TOP secret military documents from the Spanish Civil War and dictatorship of Francisco Franco are a step closer to being made public.

The files, of which there are thousands, contain details of war operations, repression in concentration and labour camps, and postwar activity, such as the fortification of the Pyrenees and Morocco.

There are also bulletins from the Central Intelligence Agency.

And the Commission for the Classification of Defence Documents has approved a report that recommends the Defence Minister Margarita Robles authorises general access to the pre1968 reports, regarded as ‘confidential’ and kept in the General Military Archive in Avila.

The information dates from the coup d’etat in 1936

REGIME: Details could soon be in the public domain. to 1968, when the current Official Secrets Act was passed.

According to the report from the commission, the

army has already confirmed that releasing these documents will in no way compromise state security.

It’s not known exactly

how many will be released into the public domain, but in 2011, the defence minister at the time, Carme Chacon, said that 10,000 files

might be declassified. But experts believe the real figure could be three times that amount.

Chacon all but completed the release of the documents, but was interrupted by early elections.

His successor Pedro Morenes, of the Popular Party, put a stop to the operation claiming ‘misrepresented information’ from another era might stir up trouble with political partners.

But unlike Chacon, Robles is not expecting to actually declassify any document, because while forming part of the current legislation, it has been concluded that the Franco era Official Secrets Act is not retroactive.

Therefore, no file prior to April 1968, which is when the law came into force, is legally classified as secret, and no declassification is deemed necessary.

Refusal of property keys back by the Bank Costa Luz Lawyers

By María L. de Castro Lawyer. Director. Costaluz Lawyers

WHAT if the Bank refuses to accept my property keys back?

Not the end of the story: Monitor and oppose if: (a) Your mortgage deeds have abusive clauses which can stop or void the repossession: anticipated maturity clause, lack of communication of the sale of the mortgage debt to a vulture fund, floor clause, IRPH… (b) The enforcement procedure is being

according to Law. (c) Value given to the property for auction is correct, mainly if Banks are respecting the minimums established by Law as a barrier for them not to bargain with mortgage debtor rights.

In most cases, your pending debt is below the value a Bank can repossess the property for, so it is for mutual benefit that an agreement is signed. Offer a prospective buyer -even for a very low price - and possibilities of a quick settlement will increase significantly.

There are always arguments before a standard denial by the Bank. Keep the fight up! And if you need a lawyer for this, please contact us at mailto:web@costaluzlawyers.es.

‘ABSURD’: Russia’s embassy in Norway spoke out over the arrest.

Diplomatic spat over ‘spy’ probe RUSSIAN diplomats in Norway have said that the arrest of a 51-year-old man from the country in Oslo on espionage charges last week was ‘absurd.’ The suspect, who has gone before a Norwegian court, faces three years in jail if found guilty. Russia’s embassy in Norway said on Facebook the pretext for his arrest was ‘far-fetched.’

Syria arms deal MOSCOW is set to supply the Syrian government with the S-300 anti-missile system within the coming weeks, according to Russia’s Defence Minister. Sergei Shoigu’s annoucemnt follows the downing of a Russian plane in the country which killed 15 military personnel. The Defence Ministry accused Israel of indirectly causing the attack.

Activist arrest A PROMINENT Russian activist has been arrested on suspicion of breaking protest laws while leaving custody on the same charges, according to an associate. Leonid Volkov, who is

close to former presidential contender Alexei Navalny, claimed he was taken to a police station as he walked out of prison earlier this week.

Energy firm rankings A STATE-BACKED gas company has fallen from first place while an oil firm climbed to second in a financial body’s global ranking of 250 energy firms. Gazprom was replaced by the Texas-based ExxonMobil at the top of the S&P Global Platts table while LUKoil rose to second from sixth place.

Balkan state backing THE Foreign Minister of Russia has said his country backs the peace deal that ended war in Bosnia in the 1990s following calls from Serbs in the country to secede. Sergei Lavrov’s comments follow those made by Milorad Dodik who is campaigning for more autonomy for the country’s Serb Republic region in canvassing for upcoming national elections. Russia supports Bosnia’s territorial integrity, Lavrov said.

Dog show THE Russian cybersphere has been filled with pictures from Moscow’s first dog costume show last week, which saw pet owners dress up the animals in a variety of outfits. Superhero costumes, dogs wearing flowers and pets wearing outfits resembling other animals all featured in the show and owners were seen showing them off in ‘dog walks’ at the event. The animals also posed for pictures next to each other.

Credit concerns

Modric in a fine mess REAL MADRID midfielder Luka Modric has reached a settlement with Spanish prosecutors, admitting he evaded taxes and agreeing to an eight-month jail sentence likely to be converted into a fine.

by Tom Woods I n J a n u a r y, t h e 3 3 - y e a r - o l d gave evidence to a court that he had already paid tax authorities close to €1 million, the sum he allegedly evaded plus interest.

The deal reached with prosecutors involves him paying a fine that represents 40 per cent of the amount allegedly evaded, or just under €350,000.

Modric can also convert his jail sentence to another fine of

€ 2 5 0 a d a y, w h i c h w o u l d t o t a l around €60,000.

The news comes just two days before football’s world governi n g b o d y F I FA a w a r d s i t s b e s t player of the year prize, for which Modric is a finalist along with Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo and Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah.

A number of high profile players have fallen foul of Spanish tax authorities in recent years, including Ronaldo and Messi.

THE Bank of Spain has warned that a rapid increase in consumer credit, which has risen 47 per cent since 2014, has made the economy more vulnerable in the event of another financial crisis.

In a recent report, the Bank of Spain states that the absence of loan guarantees, except in car purchases, has increased the fragility of the sector.

To minimise these risks it urges both banks and the public to ensure that credit is based on ‘prudent expectations’ about what customers can realistically repay.

EU funds to boost Morocco

Debt relief TURKEY’S banks have agreed to help international companies struggling with loan repayments, w h i c h i n c l u d e s S p a i n ’s B B VA a n d F r a n c e ’s B N P Paribas, after President Ta y y i p E r d o g a n c a l l e d high interest rates “the mother and father of all evil.”

Oil slip MIGRATION MONEY: The funds will be vital for Morocco’s development.

THE EU has allocated €234 million of aid to Morocco to boost efforts to stem illegal migration to the continent.

Its Neighbourhood Policy and Enlargement Commissioner Johannes Hahn signed agreements covering funding with Morocco’s Finance Minister Mohamed Benchaaboun, with Hahn confirming Europe’s commitment to Morocco’s national development.

Some €150 million of the aid is destined for the ‘Competitiveness and Green Growth’ programme,

aimed at strengthening self-employed entrepreneurs. It will also boost first-time exporters, the business climate and recycling.

The rest of the funds will go towards government social protection initiatives, aiming to reduce social disparities by increasing access to basic services.

Morocco has an unemployment rate of over 9 per cent, but this rises to nearly 30 per cent for young people, resulting in many looking to escape through migration to Europe.

THE Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) has estimated that oil will account for 28 per cent of global energy consumption in 2040, (down from 31 per cent last year), due to the boom in natural gas and renewable energy.

Grey pay THOUSANDS of Spanish pensioners have protested in Madrid to demand an increase in payouts, complaining that the former government’s 0.25 per cent rise does not keep up with inflation.

Spain trains Ghana businesses THE Spanish government has signed a memorandum of understanding with Ghana to train 2000 young entrepreneurs to boost the ‘Ghana Beyond Aid’ programme.

The initiative will be undertaken by the Spanish chamber of commerce under the auspices of the Institute for the Creation and Development of Enterprise (INCYDE) foundation.

It will provide training and consultancy services as

well as assist the development and promotion of entrepreneurship to indigenous Ghanaian businesses, helping them foster investment and job creation.

Ghana’s Minister of Business Development, Dr Mohammed Awal has explained that the 2,000 beneficiaries would be the first batch of many to be provided with the necessary skills capable of producing first class international products and the adoption of modern business techniques within the industry.

Youngsters of today have no pride LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT I DON’T write about Brexit, at least I haven’t for a while. The reason is that I have had the whole boring barrage of brain jarring bull totally up to here.

In fact, for the last month or so, I’ve had a personal competition. When I switch on the telly, I see how long it takes to hear the Brexit word uttered by some floating head or another.

This morning took the experiment to new heights. The first vocal sound that came through was ‘exit.

So, I guess that puts it to around minus a nanosecond before I actually became aware of the whole word. I’m also getting a mite piqued with all the vitriolic diatribes being directed at those who voted to leave.

The main offenders of these often-unacceptable condemnations are generally the younger generation. There are of course a number of reasons for this, the main one being that they are so cosseted and ‘nannied’ these days that most of them are utterly petrified of being cut loose from the ‘mothers’ of Brussels apron strings!

Heaven forbid they should have to actually look up from their mobiles, use their initiative and take a few risks in the big wide world, there-

TIN MAN: Youth have no knowledge of UK’s past. by actually doing something for themselves and their country. Which brings me to the second reason for their oft nasty reactions.

There is no sense of pride or patriotism in the youngsters of today. The schools are not teaching them our long and often glorious history, or the sacrifices that so many made for them to be lucky enough to live in a society that allows

them such freedom and democracy.

Indeed, many have parents or ancestors that hail from countries that they consider were pillaged and laid to waste by the marauding Brits of yore. However much we try to atone, some will never forgive us, and many will not be happy till everything that is British is consigned to past history and swept under the carpet of a new

faceless super state. Another reason to vote remain!

There is an ad on telly at present. The ad is for an insurance company. A young man of plainly ethnic origin, but with a cockney accent and presumably British, is trying to explain something that caused him to have an accident in his car. ‘A tin man in a dress or a Kaftan ran across the road, chasing a horse that was also wearing some kind of dress,’ he informs the rep.

They then show what he had actually seen. If this young man had been taught the history of the country he lives in, he would have known immediately that this was a Knight in armour and his horse, probably originating from some jousting competition in the vicinity.

The disquieting point here is that the company who made the ad used this example knowing full well that the majority of viewers would probably have been just as lost for an explanation as the young man in question. Ah well...

So, Justin Bieber doesn’t want a prenup with his new bride to be, because he considers ‘marriage is forever.’ Bieber’s fortune is estimated at some 280 million. Would any of you wager 100 odd million on a favourable marital result?

Fools, money and parted comes to mind!

TECH FOR THE TIMID

Fight or flight mode?

Terence Kennedy considers the plane truth: to switch off in-flight or not

COULD you bring down a plane by not switching your phone to Flight Mode? More than a third of travellers now keep their phones on. So perhaps we should indeed pay more attention to that safety demonstration?

Well here’s the horse’s-mouth reality, quoted by a commercial pilot the other month: 99.99 per cent of the time it really doesn’t matter, so go right ahead and second-guess the pilot by playing Infinite Flight Simulator.

It’s that other .01 per cent that matters.

First the myths. No, phones won’t interfere with the navigation system and send you plunging to your doom playing Doom. In fact they won’t interfere with any of the plane’s electronic systems - except perhaps the radio.

Does it matter? Probably not, if you were the only one aboard sneaking a last-minute call during take-off. At worst you’ll annoy the pilot or trafficcontroller with a brief ‘bzzzt-bzzztbzzzt-bzzt-bzzt’ on-speaker while communicating with each other.

But active phones constantly seek cell towers and bzzzt as they do so.

FLIGHT CLUB: Mobiles may matter.

Now multiplied by scores of non-compliers per flight.

There have indeed been at least two serious incidents where mobile phones could have been implicated: the crash of a Crossair plane in Switzerland in 2000, when spurious transmissions

confused the autopilot, and a fatal crash in New Zealand in 2003.

However the author of the tell-all Cockpit Confidential insists that “To date there are no proven cases of a phone adversely affecting the outcome of a flight.” Then he spoils it all by

adding: “But you never know.”

Far more dangerous on a flight, apparently, is the risk of our electronic toys hurtling through the air like unguided missiles during turbulence or other ‘unsettled conditions’ (as I heard one cool and calm pilot announce it while we brushed up on our ‘Hail Marys’ and assumed the position).

The industry has largely given up on that one and lets us keep our smaller gadgets clutched and running at all times, no doubt on the logical assumption that you’re more likely to survive a flying iPhone than a ThinkPad. Ultimately, consider this hidden possibility to delight conspiracy theorists everywhere: using mobiles in-flight is absolutely safe, but the airlines will never admit it. Why? The minute it can be proved beyond reasonable doubt that phones are safe, a percentage of flyers will demand the right to use them, pitting one angry group of travellers against another, with carriers stuck in the middle, says our Cockpit Confidential man.

The aircraft cabin is a last refuge of relative silence. Let’s keep it that way.

Laptop dance EVER wondered why you have to unpack a laptop for airport security, but not a tablet? The official answer is that a laptop is less dense and could hide dangerous stuff.

Technology wasn’t the answer to ultimate passenger security some years back when, after an investment of millions in fancy new peoplescanners, airports quickly retired them in droves. They were doing their job too well.

The scanners showed passengers naked, to the outrage of privacy campaigners.

Every nip and tuck was there for the delectation of the staff, Playboy on the hoof for an eight-hour shift, said its detractors.

The death-knell sounded in 2013 with the arrest of one particularly diligent security man. Police found the juciest of the month’s x-rays on his wall at home.

Remember – style sells

INDOOR OUTDOOR: Get the best of both worlds.

OR many people buying a property on one of Spain’s beautiful Costas or islands is not simply a matter of finding somewhere to live, it is also a question of buying into a lifestyle.

This is something that needs to be taken account initially when finding the perfect location for your Spanish home. Factors such as privacy or proximity to facilities like restaurants, bars, doctors and schools need to be thought about.

Do you want to be near the beach or in the mountains, in a quiet spot or near a vibrant nightlife also needs to be considered.

Fortunately in Spain there is plenty of choice to suit whatever lifestyle you feel most comfortable with. But this idea of lifestyle is not just about where you live - it comes into your home too.

The best architects have long understood the lifestyle concept, and also know how this is a constantly changing theme, which evolves through the years.

At the moment the trend for new built homes is for light and airy interiors.

These are often open plan with spaces that flow naturally from one living area to another

and eventually out onto expansive terraces and balconies. It is the very definition of the ‘indoor-outdoor’ lifestyle so many people aspire to.

With construction well into a new boom the most desirable properties account for this, with crisp lines defining the outside and open spaces defining in the inside.

For those wishing to sell a property that is perhaps not ‘on trend’ there are some things you can do to help.

Your real estate professional should be able to help you with advice, and indeed many offer a ‘home dressing’ service to help you achieve a timely sale at the best possible price.

It costs nothing to ensure your home is clean and tidy before any viewings. De-clutter too.

Put into storage any furniture that takes up too much space.

For the light and spacious feel, think about repainting in pale colours or white. It doesn’t cost the earth but can make all the difference to the desirability of a property.

Older floors can be boosted with well chosen rugs, but don’t hide a beautiful marble floor.

Whatever you do, make sure you present a stylish, modern home to prospective buyers.

Homeowners seek a profit O

VER the last 10 years, the international market for second homes has changed drastically, according to a new survey, and owners with properties in Spain are now expecting them to reap rewards.

Real estate advisor Savills and HomeAway, claims that today’s buyers are prioritising rental income over the luxury of purchasing exclusively for their own use.

Today, more than a third of all additional homes are bought as solely rental properties, compared to 14 per cent in 2000.

A company spokesman said that in a low interest rate environment, investors are seeking out income generating assets. He added that buyers are increasingly looking not just to cover costs, but to turn a profit.

The findings suggest British second home buyers shop more widely than all other nationalities, with only 24 per cent of second homes located in the UK. Spain accounts for 16 per cent of properties owned, with the top three location choices by international owners being the Algarve (5 per cent), Costa del Sol (4 per cent) and Costa Blanca

INCOME BOOST: Second homes are now expected to generate additional income.

(4 per cent).

The Spanish, Italian andPortuguese, all countries favoured by holidaymak-

ers, prefer their own countries, with less than 5 per cent of their additional homes bought overseas.

The research surveyed 4,300 property owners from across Europe, North America and the rest of the world.

Read the small print - if you can!

I

F your bank tries to penalise you for running foul of their multitude of legal clauses, check the small print. Not for what it says, but for the actual size of the letters used in the document you signed.

A judge in Sevilla has just annulled a debt of €3,000 because the bank had used print where the letters were just half a millimetre big. It is a little known fact that there is actually a legal minimum size for small print.

The General Law for the Defence of Consumers and Users establishes in article 80 that the requirements of contract clauses must be accessible and legible, and must have a minimum size of 1.5 millimetres.

And this is the argument used by a court of first instance in Sevilla, which has cancelled a debt of €2,989 claimed by a bank from a client for late payments.

In his case, the letter in

TOO SMALL: There is a minimum size for written clauses.

which the conditions for financing his credit card had small print three times smaller than stiplulated by law. The judge decided that the conditions were abusive because of

their lack of clarity - quite literally.

This particular case may relate to a credit card agreement, but the regulations are thought to apply to all financial

legal documents including home insurance and even mortgage agreements.

This is not the first court to invalidate a contract for including an illegible letter, with

the Provincial Court of Castellon annulling a similar clause because the letters could only be read with a magnifying glass.

The Banco de España itself published a circular in 2012 stipulating that the size of the characters in any financial contract must be at least 1.5 millimetres.

“Contractual documents shall be drafted in a manner that is clear and comprehensible to the customer. In particular, the size of the lower case may not be less than 1.5 millimetres high. The contract must faithfully reflect all the stipulations necessary for a correct regulation of the relationship between the client and the entity, avoid the use of technical terms and, if this is not possible, explain their meaning adequately.

“The contract shall not include any concept that is unnecessary or irrelevant for its correct application and interpretation,” explains the financial regulator in the circular.

THE most expensive property in Spain is said to be in Palma, and on the market for €65 million.

Villa Solitaire in Son Vida, was designed by the Italian Matteo Thun and boasts outstanding views over Palma Bay. With its eye-watering price tag, it is significantly more expensive than two other properties in Mallorca which have previously been highlighted because of their cost, a mansion in Bonaire, Alcudia, and a country estate with a house in Puigpunyent.

Villa Solitaire is apparently ahead of them both by some €30 million.

The luxurious, modern mansion which occupies 2,300 square metres, has seven bedrooms, six bathrooms and rooftop terrace with open-air cinema.

A gymnasium, parking for six cars, a botanical garden and lift are just some of the other features.

The interior is said to have been designed in harmony with the Mediterranean environment and the exterior’s natural spaces.

As expected, everything is of the highest possible quality.

Villa Solitaire is on the market with the John Taylor real-estate agency.

Positive signs A STUDY of Spain’s positive economic development is providing the local real estate market with an ‘ongoing tailwind.’

According to research by mortgage bank, Deutsche Hypo, the sectors for office, retail, hotel and logistics real estate are on a growth curve and show signs of maintaining the trend.

It claims Spain’s appeal, especially in the major cities of Madrid and Barcelona, is reflected in high demand for prime commercial real estate. The supply is becoming increasingly scarce, leading to an increase in peak rates.

As a result of competitive tourist numbers, the country is also seeing signs of prosperity in the hotel retail market.

A Deutsche Hypo source said the findings are a positive indication of the future of property take-up in Spain.

With this transaction, Blackstone is strengthening its position in the Spanish real estate market, in which it has made several deals since its entry in 2013. One of its most important transactions was the purchase of half of Popular’s real estate assets for €5 billion. It currently controls assets in Spain worth around €13 billion.

Checks to make when buying a property WHEN buying a property in Spain bear in mind the golden rule that you should follow in any country - let the buyer beware!

There are certain checks that should be made before any money is handed over if you are to avoid an unpleasant surprise later on.

For this reason we would always recommend you engage the services of a property professional or suitably qualified lawyer to look after your interests.

But the following is a list of the main things you should ensure are checked for. It is by no means an exhaustive list your professional advisor will be able to tell you more.

The main four things to check when buying a community property to avoid potential pitfalls and problems are: 1) You or your representative should go to the ‘Registro de la Propiedad’ (Property Register) and ask for a ‘nota simple’ of the property you are interested in. They will provide you with an accurate description of the building including who the current owner is, if it is mortgaged or has an ‘embargo’ (seizure order) and all the community guidelines of

the property. The cost is minimal.

2) Talk to the manager or president of the community of owners to ensure that the seller has no debts against them: because if he does not pay, the debt goes with the property and the new buyer will be liable to pay outstanding community fees.

3) Read the rules of the community, if any, as it may include limitations and restrictions on what you may want to do with the property.

4) Finally, ask the seller to show you the Suma IBI receipts (equivalent to local rates) to make sure they have all been paid. Again, the debt is on the property so if you buy a property with debts outstanding you will have to pay them off.

PROPERTY GUIDE BUYING: Make sure you are careful.

No Brexit effect on the Costa del Sol THE upsurge in Spain’s housing market, especially on the Costa del Sol, can be explained by a number of varying factors. The record number of tourists, falls in unemployment for the first time in a number of years, growing GDP, and an improved international credit rating all contributed.

Such is the state of the property market that a new ‘golden age’ is predicted to last until at least 2022, and the steady increase in the number of cranes on new sites and incomplete ones being finished are testament to the confidence.

The local market is being led by Marbella, Benahavis and Estepona,

GROWING TREND: Marbella leading the Costa del Sol property market. and in the past 12 months, estate agents in the Malaga Province are reporting a 100 per cent rise in the amount of homes bought by British buyers. The ‘Brexit effect’ hasn’t had any effect here...

Confirming the growing trend, Sales and Marketing Director of Taylor Wimpey España Marc Pritchard said that he’d seen “far more UK buyers over the past 12 months.” But it’s not just property and construc-

tion experts that are noticing a change. The BBVA bank has forecast a 5 per cent increase in the price of property, and thus once again makes Spain a must for international purchasers.

Exchange rates are always a contributing factor in the Spanish housing market, and as soon as there is a favourable £ / € rate, a rise in the number of British purchasers is obvious.

Even though the rate is low compared to previous heights of the past, the fact that it’s been relatively stable for a few months and a growing interest in the Costa del Sol as both a holiday and ‘second home’ destination, have resulted in the greater demand.

Last bastion slowly falling WOMEN labourers on a building site?

Last year the Fundacion Laboral de la Construccion (Construction Labour Foundation) trained 4,600 women to work in construction, 16 per cent more than in 2016.

Female presence is limited compared with service industries and manufacturing but as construction starts to pick up, women themselves are showing interest in working in the sector.

A seminar organised by the Red Cross and the Foundation underlined the need to increase women’s training for the building trade and enable them to find employment.

Representatives from construction companies and trade unions as well as official bodies including the Institute for Women, were present, analysing the challenges that women face.

These cannot be overcome until the prejudic e s and g e nder ster e o typ e s that k e e p women off building sites are removed, said the Foundation’s director general Enrique Corral.

According to the government’s latest Labour Force Survey (EPA), 6.28 per cent of all employees in Spain work in construction, but women make up only 8.7 per cent of the total.

Despite this negative panorama more young women are showing an interest in Formacion Profesional vocational studies related to the building trade.

DURING the economic crisis the Spanish government began offering residence permits to foreign buyers investing at least €500,000 in property.

The building boom had collapsed and with property prices falling by up to 40 per cent, the government’s offer was a variation on a retailer’s ‘Buy one, get one free.’

The idea was not limited to Spain as Portugal, Cyprus and Greece all introduced the same scheme and Malta has been making a similar offer since 1988.

The success of the arrangement is demonstrated by the thousands of non-EU nationals who have bought Spanish properties, enticed by the prospect of a hasslefree residence permit.

Although Portugal’s is the most successful Golden Visa scheme with foreign nationals pouring €3.8 billion in the country’s economy, Spain is not far behind

Doing it the easy way

LUXURY: Golden visas led to billions of spending on high-end property. on €3.026 billion.

By the end of 2017 a total of 41,094 investors and their families obtained Spanish residency after spending more than €500,000 on property, depositing more than €1 million in a bank

account or spending more than €2 million in government bonds. Permits have also been issued to ‘highly qualified’ professionals.

The scheme got off to an unsteady start in 2013, but jumped from

14,804 Golden Visas by the end of 2015 to 27,301 a year later.

Most went to Chinese and Russian investors and 77 per cent of that €3.026 billion was spent on luxury villas and apartments.

Married with no children WHERE once the driving force for young couples to get on the property ladder was the desire to start a family, now a growing segment of the market is devoted to people with no intention of ever having children.

For these people lifestyle is the driving factor and has led to the emergence of so called ‘dinks’ or Double Income No Kids couples.

And there are a lot of them in Spain, with the National Statistics Institute saying around four million homes in the country are owned by young couples who not only have no children, but have no intention of ever having any.

Across Europe around 53 million homes are owned by childless couples, a figure that has grown by 14 per cent in 10 years.

Their importance to the market is increasing year by year in line with their spending power.

‘Dinks’ are defined as being between 25 and 40 years old, and their lifestyle is based on leisure.

They live in the city and have good incomes and high educational levels.

Their lifestyle is based on travelling, going out for dinner, buying the latest technology and enjoying unique experiences, the typical philosophy of Generation Y, people born between 1980 and 2000 who seek passion, challenges and happiness in everything they do - as long as no children are involved!

DESIGN: Impression of a 3D printed house.

A VALENCIA start-up called Be More 3D plans to build six houses in Cuenca using a 3D printer.

Once completed, the small company intends to move on to projects in South America and the near East, improving on the technology it is currently using to add a second storey.

First, Be More 3D must finish the 24-square-metre pilot project on a plot of land that adjoins the Valencia Polytechnic University’s School of Fine Arts.

The fledgling company’s four young partners built the concrete printer, which is six metres high and three metres wide, and produced the house inside three months with €25,000 received through the Ac-

Quite some print job ciona start-ups initative.

The house was printed out, layer by layer, in 15 hours. “It could be done in eight, increasing the speed of the machine,” said Vicente Ramirez one of the Be More 3D founders.

During the house-building process, a printer will be used on-site, taking three hours to set up.

Nevertheless, there are limits to what the printer can do. “Afterwards it needs a roof made from prefabricated panels, plus windows and

doors as well as taps and weatherproofing,” Ramirez admitted.

He insisted that 3D technology is competitive compared to traditional building methods or prefabrication.

The basic structure of a 70-squaremetre house could be put up in under a day, and when ready to occupy would cost an over €50,000.

“Building with a 3D printer is up to 35 per cent cheaper,” Ramirez maintained.

Pay to stay in a prefab

CREDIT: LUIS DE GARRIDO

THE I sleep hotel was built in Zaragoza’s La Muela district for the city’s Expo 2008.

The 54-room property is now located in Africa because it was prefabricated in modules and although it was Spain’s first hotel of this kind, it was not its last.

Outside Spain the Hilton chain is including prefabricated hotels in its expansion plans, banishing the assumption that modular construction is synonymous with low quality.

There are now four Hilton prefabs in the UK, with plans for another three.

“Prefabricated hotels are environmentally-friendly, bioclimatic, low-cost and selfmanageable,” said Luis de Garrido, the Spanish architect who designed the Zaragoza hotel.

It required five months to put together, although 10 years later this would be carried out in three months, he added.

Constructing a prefabricated hotel takes a quarter of the time required for a conventional building and although I sleep cost €1,400

square metre.

Business models have changed as well as construction methods, De Garrido said.

“A prefabricated hotel goes

where occupation is guaranteed,” he pointed out, although transferring a building does not come cheap.

“Every long distance move is the equivalent of a year’s

profits, so it should remain at least two or three years in the same place, although this is cut to a year if a hotel is transferred to a neighbouring country.”

Perez doesn’t park his dreams

DREAM: Stadium renovation just the first step.

WHEN it comes to property, football clubs are becoming major customers for the nation’s construction companies.

As befits a club run by the boss of a civil engineering firm, Real Madrid’s latest project goes far beyond renovating its stadium.

While members approved plans to renovate the team’s home ground, the Santiago Bernabeu stadium plans are afoot for further expansion.

The club will take on a total debt of €575 million for a maximum period of 35 years it was agreed for the stadium itself - but more is needed for other schemes.

The Madrid president Florentino Perez, who is also president of the ACS civil engineering company, revealed that he has not yet found anyone willing to finance his dream of a theme park at the club’s Valdebebas training ground.

The theme park is not a new project and Perez revealed some time ago that he had in mind ‘a kind of Real Madrid-Disneyland.’

Together with remodelling the Bernabeu, the theme park has been a principal objective since Perez was re-elected as the club’s president and he has now been given the go-ahead for both.

“We are continuing to work on this theme,” Perez said, referring to the theme park. “It needs a huge investment and we have yet to find someone willing to provide it. We have 90 hectares of land that we could have sold to finance the stadium but preferred not to,” he said in answer to a shareholder at the recent Ordinary and Extraordinary General Meetings.

The contract for the new stadium, due to be allocated at the beginning of next year, involves an initial cost of €525 million that will be financed over a maximum period of 35 years.

This will cost the club an annual €25 million, which Perez pointed out was “less than 4 per cent” of the club’s present earnings.

Cassandra Nash A weekly look - and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene

SPAIN wants a say on Gibraltar during the UK’s putative Brexit agreement with the EU which looks more elusive every day.

Gibraltar raising its head right now is the last thing floundering, beleaguered May wants right now.

There is a Spanish saying ‘eramos pocos y pario la abuela.’ No-one does irony better than the Spanish and despite the presence of ‘pocos’ it means there were many of us and then grandma had a baby.

This describes a last-straw, things-can’t-getworse and let’s all jump over a cliff situation, but of course it’s not grandma having a baby it’s the entire Cabinet having kittens.

SPAIN’S resigned foreign minister Josep Borrell explained that “whether we like it or not” Spain must take in some of the immigrants agreed with the European Union.

Not all, he added, “because they won’t fit in,” he said, referring to physical space. Although this is where resentment, when it exists, lies because not all of today’s immigrants want to fit in.

Brexit and the kittens The lie detectors ALBERT RIVERA is not doing himself any favours with his continued insistence that Pedro Sanchez’s doctorate is partly plagiarised.

Computer programmes that scan manuscripts for cutting and pasting found no evidence, but the Ciudadanos leader won’t take yes for an answer and is determined to prove that the president of Spain’s government is a fraud.

Sanchez’s thesis is run-of-the-mill, academics agree, but its main sin is mediocrity, not its provenance.

Time’s a great healer Take care!

Mike Senker In my opinion Views of a Grumpy Old Man THEY say that time is a great healer which would explain why, in England, they make you wait months before you can get to see a specialist.

My experiences here are much better generally so I was a little put out that after waiting over an hour past my appointment time to see my diabetic doctor... I have the diabetes, not her… she’s rushing me.

I had loads of blood test results to go through, some scans done, and wanted to relook at my meds, sorting out my insulin and other stuff. After about five minutes she starts giving me the hurry up treatment because she’s running late. What I don’t get is why rush me?

Why not the people that made her late in the first place? Someone has to explain to me how that works. So after five minutes I’m sent on my way still with loads of unanswered questions and a general feeling of bewilderment. I’ll get another crack at it in six months’ time - hopefully with more than the five-minute time allowance.

I’ve noticed a new menace on the roads - well actually the pavements. People on mini motorised two wheelers. They look like a large scooter but with an engine and a saddle on it. They are being hired out by loads of companies that usually hire out normal bicycles. Now, I have no objections to businesses renting them out, but I do wish some of their customers would be a bit more responsible.

Some of them whizz along, really fast, and nearly all the riders wear a crash helmet. I’ve seen them mostly along the paseo when I’m walking the dog. They would not have a hope in hell of stopping if a child or a dog got in front of them.

They ride on the pavement because they are scared to drive them on the road.

What nonsense! Because they aren’t confident enough to ride them on the road, they put everyone in danger that is walking along the pavement. This simply should not be allowed. If you can’t or won’t ride them in the road, then the police should nick these people.

And as with all these things it’s not the bike that’s the problem - it’s the people using them! The bikes are great but they need to be used sensibly. mikesenker@gmail.com

Advertising Feature NOT everyone knows that taking out a home policy is not mandatory except when the house is mortgaged. That is the only situation that requires a person to have a policy which protects their home in Spain. However, it is worth saying that, although it is not mandatory, it is advisable and necessary to be prepared for any eventuality.

Our home is our most precious asset and if we want to avoid surprises and unforeseen events, it is important to get an insurance that gives us the peace of mind knowing that whatever happens in our home there will be someone who is responsible for solving it.

The first thing you should know is that you do not have to contract your home insurance with the entity that is granting you the mortgage but you can compare prices in the market and hire the product which provides the coverage that best suits your needs.

Until a couple of years ago, banking entities could condition their mortgage lending with an ‘obligation’ to contract some linked products, such as the Home insurance. But now, with the approval by the European Parliament of the Mortgage Credit Directive, banks are prohibited by law from linking a mortgage to the purchase of insurance.

Our house, our refuge, our castle... In short, our home Your insurance company might include a clause in your policy registering your lending bank as mortgage beneficiary, to cope with the request of the bank.

Then, the key question is, what is the best insurance for my house? In this article we give you the keys so that you can make the best decision when taking out your home policy insurance.

The value of the Building There are two criteria to assess a home insurance policy: the Building and Contents. The ‘Building’ section of your policy refers to the costs of rebuilding your home, not to the market value or the cadastral value. However, it is of key importance to declare the whole size of the property, according to the cadastral property details.

The value of the Contents The ‘Contents’ section of your policy refers to economic valuation of all the household goods: furniture, including kitchen furniture, electronic de-

LETTERS FROM CANARIES

By Barbara Belt barbarabelt@gmail.com THE Canarian summer season’s winding down, hooray. It’s been a good one, with lots of visitors from the other islands and the mainland enjoying the usual round of fiestas, romerias, bailes and beaches.

This summer’s novelty has been the large number of camper vans parked up wherever they can get away with it, fruit of our wonderful 75 per cent resident travel discount. Taking just a car on any of the 29, inter and intra-island Canarian ferry routes was disproportionally expensive before.

Incredibly, it was far cheaper to fly to Europe than to go by ferry from one of the western isles (Tenerife, La Gomera, El Hierro, La Palma) to one of the eastern (Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, La Graciosa) and pricey to even pop across to nearer neighbours. So nobody had campers.

Now they do, lovely new ones predominating amongst the home-converted vans and hippy buses. Congratulations camper sales teams everywhere, who must be so happy they can hardly count.

As is traditional, this fairly obvious development has taken the islands by surprise. Nobody really wanted it. I mean, come on! Who do they think they are just driving in here all self-contained with beds and kitchens?

vices, musical instruments, jewellery or other objects of special value. Check that the imputed valued of the content can cover the value of all those things.

Although in many cases the sentimental value is higher than the economic one, the best advice is to add all the important items in the content to secure them.

Special features Besides worrying about the Building and the Contents, there are other very interesting and useful covers to consider that not all insurance companies offer. Liberty Seguros is offering among others the following great covers: • Up to €1,000 compensation for the additional water consumption costs due to water leakage when you take out their premium home policy.

• An unrivalled DIY Service, to avoid the hassle of assembling packed furniture, fitting curtain poles, hanging pictures, etc.

• Damage to your garden furniture,

even if it has been damaged by adverse weather conditions.

• Your goods will be insured on a ‘value as new basis.’

• Legal defence, claims for damages and IT assistance service.

• Home assistance, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, with just a simple and FREE telephone call on 900 243 657, in English or German.

• A return ticket to your home in Spain, if you are abroad in your home country should an unforeseen claim happen.

Apart from all these advantages, Liberty Seguros has an extensive network of over 300 brokers and agents

who are dedicated to providing unbiased, friendly and expert advice, because every home is different and such an important decision deserves a face to face chat with a professional insurance advisor, in your own language, to discuss the most suitable cover for your home in the sun.

With insurance, not only for home, but also car, life, pet, business, commercial, leisure, public liability and personal injury, Liberty Seguros is considered by far, the expat’s number one choice in Spain today. To find out more visit www.libertyexpatriates.es or simply call 913 422 549.

The summer season is winding down

SUMMER SEASON: It’s been a good one, with lots of visitors.

So, of course no provision was made and our tourists on wheels must fend for themselves with where to get away with parking, or dumping rubbish, or filling up with fresh water or, worryingly, where to dump waste tank black water.

Adding to the holiday challenge is the Guardia Civil’s interestingly random behaviour.

Where it was OK to park last week isn’t this, and vice versa.

It’ll all sort itself in the fullness of time. The traditional, prescribed period of regulation scrapping must first take place between political parties, stuck as they are in permanent combat mode. Forward progress is tortuously slow.

I left my last (ever, I hope) public council meeting needing several stiff drinks, totally disgusted by the nitpicking rancour, vindictiveness and hopeless obstructionism displayed. I felt very sorry for the poor b****r

trying to whip the whole circus into line and, by extension, all island politicians, though not those who’ve used the nest-feathering opportunities such discord affords.

But that’s another story.

On the news front, 12 yachts left Huelva on September 1 in the 700 nautical mile, annual Regatta Colombina to La Gomera, commemorating the first stage of Columbus’ 1492 journey to the New World, while eastern province news is of Dark Tourism, the very latest in niche tourism, involving visits to tragedy sites. (It’s true!) Gran Canaria is proud to offer not only: ‘Heartbreaking cries, provoking a profound sadness’ at its Casa del Niño de Zárate, to those so inclined, but also: ‘Terrifying glimpses of rusty wheelchairs appearing in a bathroom mirror’ at the long closed San Martín Hospital.

I won’t mention that Christopher Columbus’ arrival in the Americas heralded much tragedy and, thus, future Dark Tourism potential for the New World. The conclusion that tragedy’s good for tourism confirms all my misgivings about it.

The power of an international education

by Chris Smith, Head of Secondary at Laude San Pedro International College Chris Smith is currently Head of Secondary School and Sixth Form at Laude San Pedro International College. He has been a teacher and leader for the past 10 years and has been in his current position for four years.

Chris is passionate about providing all pupils with the best possible education and that every child is given equal opportunities to learn and achieve their dreams. Come and meet Chris Smith at Laude San Pedro’s Open Morning on October 16 at 10am to see a true international education first hand.

SCHOOL TALK

IN a recent article a parent was quoted as saying: ‘I would give up just about anything to give my child an international education.’ There are hundreds of thousands of parents who all feel the same, but why? This is for many reasons; however, we believe the most important is that an international education breaks down barriers and offers limitless opportunities for pupils.

International students are faced with the opportunity to attend any University in the world. Recent statistics support this statement, with the top three destinations being the United States, United Kingdom and Australia. Some three million international students go to University every year and in addition to the top three choices, students also continue their studies across Europe, primarily in Germany and Italy, and nearly

300,000 choose to go to China and Japan every year.

Internationalism and the barriers between education, jobs and cultures are being broken down through quickly advancing technologies and a global shift towards more open-mindedness, facilitating the formation of relationships with those in other countries. It is no surprise then that the vast majority of the world’s top CEOs

HOT on the heels of World Health Organisation reports that the UK’s the third fattest nation in Europe - fuelled by a diet of booze - we now have the head of Public Health England instructing middle-aged drinkers to aim at two booze-free days a week. Phew, whatever next!

Some see this as an example of the Nanny State at its most patronising and absurd. But I don’t agree. The government spends a lot of taxpayers’ mon e y f o r m u l a t i n g th is g u id a n ce which is aimed at our very best interests. Of that I am in no doubt. That’s why I take every pronouncement most seriously and follow every bit of advice meticulously. Which I’m happy now to pass on to you...

A l wa y s e n su r e y o u ea t s ix , o r may b e se v e n . . . o r i s it eig h t. . . n o wait... five pieces of fruit and vegetables e a c h d a y. Do n ’t s mo k e , ev er.

Never use a ladder or other ‘dangerous’ piece of equipment unless you’re accompanied by two others, one to hold it, the other to supervise.

at some point in their lives studied for a professional qualification in a country other than their own. Further to this, the most financially successful companies have a culturally diverse workforce. An international education gives young adults the chance to communicate with a wide range of people, building an understanding and appreciation of cultural differences. This is one of the top influencers in the work-

place: the ability to communicate purposefully and effectively with all.

As an educator, it is a constant challenge to keep up-to-date with the continually evolving world of careers; we are in the most rapidly changing decade the world has seen and with this we are preparing our pupils for careers which might not even exist yet. An international education gives the flexibility to change and adapt the curriculum and the school environment to make them more relevant for the current dynamics of the world.

In an international school a pupil can gain the high academic qualifications that the best Universities across the world desire, whilst also developing a wide variety of skills to equip them for the future. Research and self-learning are core elements of the learning process, nurturing critical

What a nanny state we’re in cheers! Make mine a double!

CHEERS: Drinkers live longer than non-drinkers.

Keep your coffee intake under two cups a day. Hang on... make that one cup, just to be totally safe. Visit government-funded health advice sites every day to keep tabs on the latest guidance, and follow it scrupulously.

Be extremely careful when making ‘jokes.’ In all probability you will offend someone, and this could be dangerous both for you and society at large. If in doubt, seek advice from the government-sponsored website ‘It’s healthy to laugh, but not at others.’

Finally and back to the real world, it’s always wise, when idiotic advice like this latest example crops up, to remember the old joke about the man who asked his GP: “If I never drink, never smoke, remain on a diet and abstain from sex, will I live to be 100?”

GP: “No, but it’ll feel like it.”

It was only recently I read somewhere that drinkers live longer than non-drinkers. But the logic of two ‘dry’ days a week is somehow compelling. Mine are mañana and the day after. What are yours?

Double G&T, anyone?

and independent thinking whilst building confidence and strength of character. We believe that empowering pupils to have their own views on world issues and being able to communicate these effectively is equally important to achieving amazing examination results.

There are currently 9,679 international schools around the world delivering learning in English to 5.289 million children from ages three to 18 years according to data from the International School Consultancy Group (ISC). This figure has increased by 2,500 schools and 2.2 million children in the past four years, and is set to rise at an even faster pace over the next three years. Why not look into an international education for your child?

They only have one education, so why not make the best it can be.

LEGALLY SPEAKING

Who is responsible for water leak?

I have an underground garage space in our building. Last week I observed water dripping from the ceiling. The floor was already covered with water and my golf cart was damaged. I informed the community administration, who informed their insurance company. The next day a plumber sent by the insurance came to find the cause. At that time the water dripping had stopped. The plumber told me that the water drip was caused when the water company changed a water meter. I expected the insurance of the community to cover the damage. The administration informed me that their insurance company does not cover the damage as the cause was not a broken water pipe. I cannot accept this and ask you how to proceed.

P M (Costa Blanca) I hope that by David Searl the time you You and the Law read this, someone has in Spain told you that you should proceed against the insurance providers of the water company. They caused the drip. I am surprised that your community administration did not tell you this and offer to help you make the contact. A report from the community administration will carry more weight than a private complaint.

Send your questions for David Searl through lawyers Ubeda-Retana and Associates in Fuengirola at Ask@lawtaxspain.com, or call 952 667 090.

A FIESTA celebrating Cartagena’s Roman and Carthaginian heritage has been in full swing since last Friday, with many more events planned before it closes this Sunday.

The event pays homage to the city’s ancient heritage. It is set to see a week’s worth of re-enactments, performances and parades.

Cartagena residents typically don the outfits associated with the Ancient Romans and Carthaginians for the duration of the fiesta.

Re-e n a c t m e n t s b e g in w ith a recreation of the founding of the city by the Carthaginian explorer Asdrubal. The notary named the city Qart-Hadasht.

There are also stagings of the weddings of later Carthaginians Anibal and Himilce, the Oracle of Fanit and the disembarkation of the Carthaginian navy.

The hiring of mercenaries and a recreation of the march of the famous general Hannibal towards Rome are also set to take place.

There is then due to be a pitched battle re-enactment between the forces of Hannibal and those of the Roman general Publius Cornelius Scipio. The latter defeated Hannibal during the Second Punic War in the Third Century BCE and Rome conquered Carthage’s terri-

tories in Spain shortly after.

Following the battle there is due to be the commemoration of the Roman victory. There will be a r ecr eat i on of t he m om ent t he Carthaginians surrendered and acknowledged the authority of their new Roman masters.

A procession through the city is due to take place as part of this.

There will also be a chance for fiesta goers to wine and dine with t he gr eat Hanni bal and Sci pi o back at their camps.

Thei r t r oops wi l l al so be on hand at the camp where a variety of traditional wares and from the two ancient powers will be on display.

Cartagena is more than 3,000 years old and its name comes from t he peopl e who f ounded i t , t he Carthaginians.

It was later conquered the Rom an Em pi r e and was r enam ed Carthago-Nova (New Carthage). It became a significant port in the southern part of what was then the province of Hispania.

Carthage was one of the ancient Medi t er r anean’s gr eat t r adi ng powers until they were conquered

by Rome. Cartagena was a significant city throughout history and remains an important shipping and naval hub.

THERE’S no doubt that Brits love to holiday, but did you know you could be falling foul of local laws next time you step onto foreign soil?

Laws and customs are different wherever we travel, but sometimes, the most unexpected, seemingly innocent items, or actions could get you into the kind of deep water you didn’t bank on as part of your holiday adventure.

The Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) recently launched a campaign to encourage travellers to check the local laws and customs of their destination before they travel.

Before you venture on your next break, check out these surprising laws to avoid a globetrotting faux pas, or worse still, a massive fine, or imprisonment.

Did you know...

• Taking gum into Singapore is illegal.

What’s more, selling it there could get you a fine of up to $100,000.

• Benylin cough syrup isn’t permitted through customs in Zambia.

• Enjoy a tipple while relaxing on holiday? Be extra careful if travelling to the US.

The strangest laws abroad that could land you in deep water

KEEP WALKING: Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral is no place for a snack.

You could get arrested while in public, even if you just look intoxicated! Public intoxication is a misdemeanour in most states, but in Texas, you could be fined up to $500.

• Eating a sandwich or having a drink while chilling on church steps or courtyards in Florence is an offence. So save the snacks until after you’ve mooched around the iconic Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral.

• Don’t even think about a kiss or cuddle in public while in the UAE as public displays of affection could lead to arrest and imprisonment.

• If you’ve opted for a holiday-let in Switzerland, beware that flushing the loo after 10pm in an apartment building is illegal thanks to their noise pollution laws.

• You can only dance in Japan after midnight if the lights are on! This law links back to days when dance halls were sometimes locations for prostitution. Strut-yourstuff into the early hours - but keep the lights up!

• Sitting on the pavement in many US cities is an offence. So don’t be tempted to take a rest if you’ve been waiting too long

for a bus in California, Virginia and many other popular holiday spots.

• Medication we innocently purchase over the counter at home is against stringent antistimulant laws in Japan, including decongestants Sudafed and Vicks. See our July article for travelling with medication risks.

Wherever you go on your next adventure, visit the FCO website www.gov.uk/trav elaware for up-to-date information on what your location has in store for you. And whatever else you leave behind, remember to buy reliable travel insurance. Globelink www.globelink.co.uk gets you covered up to age 89, with free Cruise cover and 50 PreExisting Medical Conditions covered as standard, including high blood pressure, diabetes, gastric reflux, hypertension and more.

YOUR STARS FOR NEXT 7 DAYS 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. The rewards are both social and financial.

LOCHED IN: The first recorded sighting of the Loch Ness monster was in 1933.

PISCES (February 20 - March 20)

Trivia from around the world ***With over 95 per cent of its population overweight, the small island nation of Nauru is by far the fattest country on earth. This is primarily attributed to the importation of western fast food. ***Residents of the Maldives have the greatest reason to fear rising sea levels and global warming, given that they sit only 1.8 metres above the sea.

***The Falkland Islands have a population of only 3,000 people, but half a million sheep. This works out at 350 sheep for every person and wool is unsurprisingly a major export. ***Egypt was the first country to achieve sovereignty based upon the formation of the first dynasty in 3100 BC. ***With over three million lakes, 9 per

cent of Canadian territory is actually fresh water and over 60 per cent of all the lakes in the world are found within its borders. ***At four people per square mile, Mongolia is the least densely populated country on Earth. This is in contrast to the Mong Kong district of Hong Kong which has the highest population density in the world with 340,000 people per square mile.

DID YOU KNOW? If you want to learn about monsters and ghouls in real life, you can get a PHD in Parapsychology at the University of Edinburgh.

The Koestler Parapsychology Unit takes a broad approach, conducting research into pseudi-psi (‘what’s not psychic but looks like it’) beliefs about the paranormal and the history of witness accounts, and studies of anomalous phenomena.

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.

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.

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.

World of English

When you’re a stay at home mother you have to pretend it’s really boring, but it’s not. It’s enriching and fulfilling, and an amazing experience. Then when you’re a working mother you have to pretend that you feel guilty all day long.

Amy Poehler

If you always put a limit on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits, there are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.”

Bruce Lee

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.

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.

EL MILLON: HRP49659

JOKER: 6 294 950

JOKER: 4 481 991

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.

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.

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.

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?

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 very much in the limelight, it comes as no great 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? Strange things happen sometimes.

Treat life with humour and kindness and you will not go far wrong.

BIRTHDAYS

A GROUP of schoolboys playing in the woods discover a well hidden red VW polo, and in the boot is the body of a dead man with his feet in handcuffs.

The corpse turns out to be that of gay private investigator, Stuart Bloom, who disappeared in 2006, whilst working for film producer, Jackie Ness.

The police team looking into Bloom’s disappearance at the time came to be discredited in later years, with Bloom’s mother, Catherine, accusing it of corruption and negligence.

The new murder case is to open a can of worms, in which no-one comes out well, no-one is innocent, and everyone is hiding something.

It is a house of lies, but there is one man who knows where the trail may lead, and it could be the end of him: John Rebus.

THOSE of us who have taken the trouble to look beyond the news of the mainstream media will soon learn that there is a Brexit without the exit. In fact we are going to be even worse off than before.

This current PM is as treacherous as the rest of the previous PMs since Edward Heath who first conned the public to take the first step into the long term agenda to remove the sovereignty of all the European nations including Britain.

What Theresa May has done is to deliberately be vague and drag out the negotiations for as long as possible in order to find a way to get around actually leaving the EU. She has been very busy behind the scenes making sure that we will retain our membership of all the most important organisations of the EU and importantly we will continue to pay for that privilege.

British taxpayers will continue to pay billions of pounds into the EU as before via these organisations as opposed to the current system for the benefit of the public so as not to alert them and in turn we will be obliged to continue to impose and incorporate all their rules and regulations.

The biggest one of course is we will be part of the new EU army. This was made clear by the current Minister of Defence that Britain will continue to be and contribute to the EU army that will be run by Germans with us of course paying billions of pounds for the pleasure of being a member. We will no longer have a national army of any consequence.

But the biggest con is that we will no longer have any representation in Brussels. It is win, win all the way for the EU and the big bonus is that they won’t have those irritating British MEPs asking awkward questions any more and can now do as they like and Britain has no say but will continue to be one of the biggest contributors through the backdoor.

STYLISH: Arrive in style.

Nick Horne The Rich Pick Freelance correspondent, London, England IT’S Monday again and where would you like to be this week? The weather is looking a little dodgy locally and almost anywhere else appeals.

The plan for the week ahead could include the Cote D’ Azur and the Principality of Monaco where the annual Monaco Yacht Show will be in full swing. You could do worse than swing by the Casino, the Hermitage Hotel or if you are of a more modernist bent the Fairmont Hotel.

Shopping this week?

Conveniently located on the classic Formula One race series of turns the ‘Hair Pins’; in any event everything is nearby in Monaco.

Even the views of the sea are pretty good if you have the right rooms, the food is definitely moreish wherever you choose.

The shopping opportunities are also first class. Retail therapy of very specific kinds may be embarked upon. Handbags? Jewellery? Cars? Yachts?

Nope, this time it’s going to a helicopter!

As Fredric Lemos, Head of Airbus Corporate Helicopters pointed out in reassuringly bland corporate speak: “With approximately 300 helicopter capable yachts worldwide there are increasing requirements for more reliable compact and versatile helicopters capable of transporting passengers and cargo in all environments.” Seems like the essential retail therapy of this week! A helicopter is a much

more stylish way to arrive. On a yacht. At home or when just hoping to annoy a dear friend by dropping in for a pot of Assam tea.

The down wash from the rotating blades will overwhelm whatever leaf blower the gardener is using!

Making good food choices WHILE women who enjoy a Mediterranean diet reduce their risk of a stroke, the protective attributes of fish, oil and vegetables are apparently less effective in men.

Researchers have found that females reduce their risk by 22 per cent, but the odds were only 6 per cent lower in males who follow the eating regime.

Cutting down on meat and dairy products, the preferred foods on the continent include fish, fruits, nuts and vegetables.

And there is no shortage of studies which show these food types can boost heart health and even stave off cancer and fatigue.

Experts at the University of Anglia led a study of 23,000 people, aged 40 to 77, who were assigned into four groups, based on how closely they adhered to a Mediterranean diet.

Volunteers were asked to complete seven-day diaries of everything they ate and drank, said to be more precise than questionnaires.

They then compared their stroke risks over a 17-year period.

HEALTHIER: All round benefits to Mediterranean diet.

The findings showed the overall risk was slashed by around 17 per cent, but with a massive difference depending

on sex.

Those at high risk of heart disease, leaving them susceptible to a stroke,

POPULAR: The supplement market is huge.

Healthy additions SUPPLEMENTS have grown more popular over the years with a number of studies claiming their benefits for a number of different health conditions.

Calcium is vital for healthy bones, which play an important part in a person’s health as they provide structure for the body, perfect organs and anchor muscles. Poor bone health can result in osteoporosis, which can make them more prone to breaking.

With age, the intestines absorb less calcium from the diet, and the kidneys become less effi-

cient at conserving it. As a result, the body can steal calcium from bone for a variety of important metabolic functions.

Experts claim the memory can be protected as early as possible with a fish oil supplement which are packed with omega-3s, specifically docosahexaenoic (DHA), which help improve the way brain functions and increase new cell growth.

And vitamin D supplements can help to lower the risk of heart disease. Anybody over the age of four should take 10 micrograms each day.

also had a lower chance of the latter if they opted for the healthier eating regime.

But again, the protection offered was higher in women.

The universities of Cambridge and Aberdeen were also involved in the study, one of the largest conducted, and the results were published in the American Heart Association’s journal Stroke.

Professor Ailsa Welch said that it is unclear why there are differences between the genders, but suggested it could be down to the types of stroke men and women experience.

However, she pointed out the study was too small to test for this and called for further experiments to investigate further the link.

Greek scientists have discovered that people over 65 slept sounder after eating olives, fish and seasonal fruits, major parts of a Mediterranean diet, although the exact reasons are not fully understood.

But experts said it could be because some foods in the diet are good sources of melatonin, a hormone that tells the brain it’s time to wind down and go to sleep.

SCIENTIFISTS claim to have discovered why decades of studies have failed to find a cure for Alzheimer’s.

Previous attempts to find a treatment focuse d o n t h e t o x i c b u ild -u p o f p ro tein clumps, known as amyloid beta, in a patient’s brain.

This accumulation slowly destroys neurons and causes memory loss and confusion.

But researchers at King’s College in London argue that once these clumps have formed, it is too late for medication to make a difference.

They claim that by targeting the littleknown protein that causes the clusters to develop significantly improves signs of Alzheimer’s in mice.

Drug treatments that work on blocking this protein are already available in Japan and China for stroke.

Scientisits found that the disease’s progressions works like a circuit.

When the amyloid-beta starts to join together in the sufferer ’s brain, it starts to break down nerve cells.

This causes these cells to produce more amyloid-beta.

A st u d y sp o k e sp ers o n s aid th at a ‘vicious positive feedback loop’ exists in wh i c h t h e p r o t ein d riv es its o w n production. And once this ‘loop’ gets out of control, drugs are no longer effective.

HOPE: New research may help find way a forward in the treatment of the most common form of dementia.

Positive step forward ceutical developers should target the protein Dkk1, which stimulated the production of amyloid-beta.

Tests on mice, which were treated with the Dkk1-blocking drug fasudil for two

weeks, showed a dramatic reduction in their levels of the protein.

The scientists now plan to investigate if fasudil, which is an approved drug for other conditions, could boost brain health and

prevent cognitive decline in people with early stage Alzheimer’s.

EXCESS GAS: Certain foods can reduce risks of bloating.

Listen to your tummy THE body’s reaction to certain foods can cause stomach bloating, an uncomfortable problem that can be avoided by making food choices that reduce the production of excess gas.

Foods known for their bloat-inducing qualities include beans, onions and broccoli, but there are things we can eat that help do the opposite.

Five bloat-blocking foods recommended are rice, banana, yoghurt, cu-

cumber and papaya.

Certain foods, especially some carbohydrates, are only partially digested in the gut, and this can result in gas build-up.

But rice is fully digested in the small intestines.

Foods with high sodium intake can be culprits as sodium attracts and retains water in the body.

So to counteract this, experts recom-

When patients are told that ‘nothing can be done’ or that they have to wait until they are worse before they can have XYZ procedure.

Given a prescription for painkillers and told to ‘live with it.’

These casual phrases can have a huge impact.

Being condemned (and no, I don’t use that word lightly) to ongoing pain and limitations can have an enormous impact on how you approach everyday tasks, not to mention the extra activities which can add sparkle and joy to your day.

How you feel dictates how you feel It is hardly surprising that multiple studies have shown a link between continual pain and depression (Sullivan et al 1992 /

By Estelle Mitchell www.thebodyworksclinic.com Williamson and Schulz, 1992 / Kim et al 2011). We know that one of the key factors in chronic pain is depression and it’s why anti-depressants are regularly included in pain management regimes.

Feeling that you can’t control, influence or manage that pain can make things worse - you live your life in suspense! Or worse, suspended animation, scared to do anything which might trigger it.

Moving forward Whether your pain takes the form of migraines, knee pain, foot pain, back pain... being given tools

and a plan to influence and control your pain (maybe get rid of it altogether?!?) can have a huge impact on your day-to-day quality of life.

There’s a saying that to raise a child it ‘takes a village.’ I think it ‘takes a team’ to support a patient you are an entire person with specific needs and requirements, by understanding your unique situation we can work as a team to address the many facets of your situation and put you back in the driving seat of your health.

Studies have shown that shavings of papaya contain a white substance called papain, which when ripe have a laxative quality which helps bowel movement.

As well as the foods we eat, the way in which we eat them is important too for a happy abdomen.

Spain and Israel - building bridges Marbella Moments

by Nicole King WHEN I first moved to Spain in the early 1980’s the State of Israel wasn’t recognised by Spain, which made it all the more heart-warming to learn from Patricia Nahmad last year that there is an association in Marbella whose purpose is to forge alliances and favour synergies between the academic and research world in Spain and Tel Aviv.

The association’s main aims in Spain are to develop long-term relationships with the political and academic institutions to expand and deepen bilateral collaborations and raise funds to provide scholarships to Spanish students who wish to complete their studies at the UTA. So, with all our great local schools and so many international children now growing up in Marbella I thought it pertinent to also share this information with you; who knows, it might be just what you or your child was looking for!

The Association of Friends of the University of Tel Aviv is a non-profit organisation made up of a truly international and cosmopolitan group of people with a common trait: love for science and knowledge and an appreciation for what the Tel Aviv University (TAU) has to offer.

HAND OF FRIENDSHIP: The association works to strengthen bilateral collaboration.

Apparently it’s Israel’s largest and most comprehensive institution of higher learning with over 30,000 students studying in nine faculties and over 125 schools and departments across the spectrum of sciences, humanities and the arts.

Situated in Israel’s cultural, financial and

technological capital, TAU shares Tel Aviv’s unshakable spirit of openness and innovation and boasts a campus life as dynamic and pluralistic as the metropolis itself. Consistently ranked in the top 20 in the world in terms of scientific citations and among the top 100 universities, global in

outlook and impact, TAU strives to address the 21st century’s most pressing challenges through bold, interdisciplinary solutions from one of the world’s most emblematic cities.

The association in Spain is also quite active and organises many conferences and events with recognised experts in different subjects to help fund their incentives and create spaces for debate and reflection on current issues.

The cultural events have proven to be paramount in breaking down barriers and creating new alliances. The success of attendance to the concert organised this summer in the expansive gardens of Remedios del Rio, was surely a testament to this.

The guest list was a real who’s who with the Ambassador of Israel Don Daniel Kutner and his wife Shirley, the honorary consuls of Israel Don Raphael Cohen, Juan Domingo Corpas Consul of Costa Rica, the Consul of Uruguay Fátima Cortes and over 100 others, whose privacy I’ll respect, gathering to appreciate a cello and piano recital courtesy of Master Dimitry Yablonsky and Laia Martin. Both musicians with great professional experience displayed a magnificent rapport with each other and totally engaged the audience.

I for one loved it!! The calibre of the musicians was tangible and the evening itself a real eye opener as to the extent of diversity in our city: Marbella is undoubtedly a window to the world. www.rtvmarbellanow.com @marbellanow

CPC visit to Cervezas Victoria Tracin LAST Friday, some 20 members and guests of the Costa Press Club were treated to a guided tour and beer tasting at Cervezas Victoria, Malaga’s oldest beer manufacturer.

The 90-minute visit provided a fascinating insight into Cervezas Victoria’s past and present and how they brew beer. The Costa Press Club sampled two beers, the classic Cervezas Victoria lager and a new ‘black’ beer, due to be sold commercially in the near future.

The tour took place at the ultra-modern installations on Avenida de Velázquez at the factory built in September 2017 and awarded the Malaga Architecture Prize 2018. After a welcome by the team, Pedro walked the Costa Press Club through the brewing procedure by explaining the process and showing the different machinery used at each step.

GUIDED TOUR: Members of the Press Club at the brewery.

He also recounted Cervezas Victoria’s history since 1928 when the brewery was founded in El Perchel by the Franquelo family with machinery from Germany and the first master brewer Henrich Dietz.

Spanning 90 years,

Cervezas Victoria’s past includes Civil War anecdotes, big expansion and a move to Murcia before the company returned to Malaga in 2017.

The Costa Press Club saw memorabilia including the first printed advert with the beer ’s famous slogan

‘Malagueña y exquisita’ (from Malaga and exquisite) and the original tiled logo of a German wiping his brow as he keeps cool in the Malaga heat thanks to a glass of Victoria beer.

The group then moved onto the tasting of two beers

- the company’s signature lager and a new ‘black’ beer. Pedro explained how to class the colour, bouquet and taste of the beer and the Costa Press Club tasted the clear cereal notes in both types, neither of which is especially bitter to suit the Spanish market.

The black version of Cervezas Victoria, as yet to go on the market, went down well (literally!).

The visit finished with a master class in drawing beer, a process that involves five steps to produce the perfect glass of beer. Member Helen O’Leary and guest Jose María Sánchez Alfonso received certificates of distinction for their new-found skills as beer pullers.

The visit then moved to Trattoria Mamma Franca where Costa Press Club members and guests enjoyed pizza and pasta, washed down of course with Cerveza Victoria.

of Pica FOR those who love the work of Pablo Picasso, the Picasso Museum in Malaga City is launching a new exhibition bringing together more than 200 of his works from collections throughout Spain and the rest of the world.

Opening on October 9 and running until February 3 next year, Picasso’s South. Andalucian References follows the history of Spanish art by showing works by Picasso alongside valuable archaeological artefacts and paintings by great masters such as Zurbarán, Velázquez, Goya, María Blanchard and Juan Gris in an ambitious show that moves from Iberian art, through Classical Antiquity, and ends with the modern art of Picasso’s own contemporaries.

The exhibition retraces the intellectual journey Picasso made from south to north, using the symbolic heritage of his home-

Picasso’s South.

Andalucian References will be run during the fourth International Picasso Congress, at which experts from around the world will present and discuss the latest academic papers on Picasso’s work.

land to return to his origins. It focuses on the profound impression that Mediterranean culture left on the Malaga-born artist’s work, making a connection with the historic and artistic heritage of Spain, of which he was a great lover.

According to the museum, the aim of the exhibition is to illustrate how the visual nature of Picasso’s work holds features and qualities, such as austerity or loss of faith, that are similar to those of Spain’s own collective memory.

Eat Well

to Live Well

by Andrew Harding AFTER the last few weeks of discussing vitamins and essential minerals, this week I am going to give my reader (hopefully the plural) a dietary rest. I am limited to a certain number of words in my column as are all writers, so this week one recipe only with many ingredients and instructions, but still fairly easy to cook: Chicken Satay with a Peanut Butter Sauce Serves 4 1 kg chicken breast, skinned, boned, unpleasant bits removed and 2.5cm cubed 250 grams dry roasted peanuts, crushed 2 tablespoons vegetable oil Juice from 2 limes 1 teaspoon chilli powder 2 teaspoons sugar 1 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons black peppercorns, ground For the sauce 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 500 gram jar crunchy peanut butter 2 whole large Spanish spring onions, chopped 8 whole garlic cloves, skinned and chopped 1 piece ginger root (7cm long), skinned

Celebrating a son of San Roque THE singer known as Canela de San Roque died on Tuesday, August 4, 2015 at the Punta Europa Hospital in Algeciras at age 68.

On the occasion of his death, the council announced the celebration of a flamenco festival to be held every two years in his honour and the second Flamenco Biennial Canela de San Roque will run from October 4 to 27.

Thursday, October 4, starting at 8pm in the Ortega Brú Art Gallery will be the opening ‘Fundamental portraits,’ by the artist Juan Torres followed by a free flamenco recital.

The next night there will be a formal Act of Twinning with the Flamenco Festival of Mairena del Alcor.

Saturday, October 6 from 9m at the Juan Luis Galiardo Theatre, there will be a concert costing €10.

Chicken satay with a peanut butter sauce

EASY TO COOK: Chicken satay. and chopped 4 whole chilli peppers, deseeded and chopped (more if you want heat) 2 teaspoons salt, optional 2 teaspoons black peppercorns, ground 1 large bunch cilantro leaves, chopped 4 tablespoons soy sauce 4 teaspoons roasted sesame seed oil Juice of 2 limes 2 cups water 1. Make the satay chicken.

2. Prepare chicken, put to one side.

3. Take two bowls mix crushed peanuts with chilli powder, salt, sugar and black pepper in one, vegetable oil and lime juice in the other.

4. Dip chicken in lime juice/oil and then coat with peanuts.

5. Place in oven proof dish with two tablespoons of oil and coat by gently rotat-

ing and agitating the dish until the encrusted chicken is fully coated with oil.

6. Place in the oven for about 20 minutes (200 Celsius fan oven or 220 Celsius non-fan oven), or until cooked through.

7. Take out of oven and put to one side.

8. Make the sauce.

9. Place oil in pan and heat add spring onion, garlic, ginger and chilli.

10. Fry for five minutes add peanut butter, salt, black pepper, cilantro, sesame seed oil, lime juice and water, stir until it has a double cream consistency and is heated through.

11. Serve.

Tip: I have said this before, but it is worth repeating for those readers who are new to this column. Any meat, fish or vegetable ‘encrusted’ (I can’t think of a better adjective to describe a coated and fried or roasted foodstuff, it would also apply to bread-crumbed or battered fish, meat or vegetable) can be tested to see if it is cooked properly, simply tap it with a metal spoon. If the tap does not elicit a ‘resonant’ sound but a ‘squelchy’ one, it needs further cooking.

A thank you to tourists THERE will be a programme of activities organised by the Mijas Council to celebrate the Day of the Tourist next Wednesday starting at noon.

The Plaza Virgen de la Peña will be the epicentre of the celebration activities with the first event the Jaleo flamenco (a style where singers and dancers clap hands and shout encouragement) presentation.

Mijas Pueblo, as a historical and artistic ensemble, is a great attraction for the thousands of tourists who visit every year, its streets, its gastronomy or crafts.

The programme of activities will continue with the awards ceremony of the Ruta de la Tapa starting at 12.45pm followed an hour later with a Zambra flamenco show.

At 1.45pm the Department of Tourism will offer a free tasting of paella, ending the day with the equestrian and flamenco show at the Plaza de Toros from 4.30pm.

Crude Rock.

Queen of Magic.

Rock for Cudeca ONCE again, Malaga band Queen of Magic will be taking a night out from their busy schedule to perform a charity show sponsored by The Good Companions from Fuengirola in collaboration with Big M Promotions to raise money for the Cudeca Hospice.

The gig with support band Crude Rock will take place at the Que Bowling leisure centre in Las Lagunas, Mijas Costa which will be closed to the public for that night to give exclusive access to the venue for

those attending the concert.

Entry will cost a very r e a s o n a b l e € 2 0 p e r p e rson in the all seating venue and includes the choice of a hot dish from t h e m e n u , a r a ff l e t i c k e t and two great local bands with the event lasting from 7.30pm to midnight on Friday October 19.

Crude Rock, a fourpiece band, hail from San Pedro Alcantara and have gained a local following playing a selection of their favourite hard rock from the 70’s and 80’s so the evening should start with a real bang.

They will be followed on stage by Queen of Magic who have studied the band and play the music in a way that the audience feels that they are listening to Queen themselves.

They have a wide repertoire including all the most popular hits and they play nine songs note for note as in the original records and another nine songs recreating the sound from the Kind of Magic concert performed at Wembley in 1986.

This promises to be a rocking night which will help the Cudeca Hospice in Benalmadena to continue their good work.

Tickets for this fundraiser are available from Que Bowling, IBEX Insurance Fueng i r o l a , Wo o d y ’s L o s Boliches or Café Santa Fe Fuengirola or for more information call 658 579 695.

The Good Companions meet at the Manila Bar every Tuesday from noon until 2pm.

Help I need somewhere to eat IN the days before the all invasive internet, if you were looking for a restaurant you could scan the yellow pages or equivalent, read a review in a local newspaper, rely on word of mouth or wander past the establishment to have a look at the menu and the clientele.

Certainly in suburban UK even 30 years ago there weren’t that many cafes, bars, pubs serving food or restaurants than there are now and society has changed to cope with the ever increasing options.

One hugely important yet possibly sometimes inaccurate portal is TripAdvisor which has now become the first port of call for tourists especially, looking to find somewhere that offers the food they fancy at a price they can afford.

In many ways it is a great innovation in as much as it does give some important basic information about a very large number of establishments and also gives links to their websites or Facebook pages if they exist.

W h e r e Tr i p A d v i s o r c a n b e m i s l e a d i n g ( a n d n o t through any fault of its own) is in the area of reviews from happy or disappointed customers.

Clearly if every review says that the place is terrible, then most people would steer clear and if every review was five-star, some might question whether at least some had been added by the proprietors, but what you would expect would be a mixture of some great and some not so great reviews and naturally every restaurant will have the odd bad day.

It is interesting however that some owners don’t take advantage of the opportunity to respond to posts or if they do, criticise the customer rather than taking it on the chin if a comment is negative.

The initial concept of TripAdvisor ensured that visitors believed that restaurants were being given equal treatment and it was relatively easy to find an establishment by area, popularity or type of food but as the organisation has expanded dramatically, so it appears to be directing visitors to places where there may have been a payment to ensure that the restaurant is one of the first to be mentioned.

There is nothing inherently wrong with this as it is not dissimilar to what Google does, but it can be irritating when you are looking for something in particular and you are directed to a place that isn’t really relevant.

At the end of the day, this is a free service which tens of thousands of people use all over the world, but you just have to be a little careful at taking everything at face value and it is certainly far better than almost any other option (other of course than advertisements in your EWN newspaper).

Beware Facebook comments however as they are generally either very positive or very negative and cannot under normal circumstances be removed from the site, so consider whether they could have been put up by the restaurant itself or by competitors.

There is so much choice nowadays that TripAdvisor which includes guest photographs of most establishments is a very handy tool and has now moved into recommending and booking hotels.

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 being the main carrier).

PETS PAGE www.euroweeklynews.com

Flying with pets

READY: Pets deserve a holiday too.

When making a booking for you and your 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 iden-

tified 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, documentation and pet passport. So if you are thinking about bringing your 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. The dog’s transport, whether in the hold or in the cabin, will not be chargeable. It is not necessary to carry out any special procedure, but the dog must wear a muzzle, collar and lead. If the dog is to travel in the cabin, it will be placed next to the passenger in a place indicated by the crew.

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.

IN 1914, silent film movie star Florence Lawrence invented the first ‘auto signalling arm,’ a mechanical indicator, along with the first brake signal.

RIGHT FORMULA: Project One carries many influences from Formula One.

Mercedes-AMG Project One: A formula for success PROJECT ONE, the Mercedes-Benz hypercar project, is back on track according to Tobias Moers, chief executive of the Mercedes-owned tuning and performance firm AMG. He admits there have been ‘challenges’ since the car was unveiled on the eve of the Frankfurt Motor Show almost a year ago.

The 1,000 bhp car, which

is predicted to cost €2.25 million, has begun testing at a British circuit this week.

Just 275 examples will be built and they’re all sold, while the project is on schedule to deliver the first examples in 2020.

Project One’s top speed is as yet unspecified, but 062mph acceleration is expected to take about two seconds.

Moers said: “It’s ambitious, and we’ve had our journey, but now we’re back on track.

“The biggest challenge has been powertrain, not durability but On Board Diagnostics, which is a different world.”

The Project One car uses a 1.6 litre V6 hybrid Formula One drivetrain similar to that of the 2015 race car of Lewis Hamilton, but with a bigger battery pack, although still of the same rarefied F1 type.

The car is being developed jointly by the company’s Formula One team Mercedes-AMG Petronas based at Brackley, the engine builder HPP at Brixworth and at AMG headquarters in Affalterbach, Germany.

Premier League Preview

Red bandwagon rolls on LIVERPOOL won a seventh straight game in all competitions from the start of a season for the first time in 28 years by easing past Southampton at Anfield.

The hosts took the lead after 10 minutes when the influential Xherdan Shaqiri’s shot deflected off Shane Long and Wesley Hoedt for a bizarre own goal.

Joel Matip then headed in from a corner before Mohamed Salah pounced on the crossbar rebound of Shaqiri’s superb free-kick.

“I wasn’t interested in the history before the game but now I like it,” said manager Jurgen Klopp, whose team will face Chelsea away on Saturday, while Southampton will travel to Wolverhampton.

Riyad Mahrez scored his first goals for Man City as they thrashed Cardiff City 5-0 in a clinical display.

The marquee summer signing tapped in his first goal, and City’s fourth, after an incisive team move before whipping in his second late on.

The champions were already out of sight by half-time, leading 3-0 thanks to Sergio Aguero’s sweeping finish, a clever looping header from Bernado Silva and Ilkay Gundogan’s classy curling effort.

Cardiff are still searching for their first win this season, and will entertain Burnley on Sunday, while Man City will play Brighton at home on Saturday.

Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech said his side was building momentum after his man-of-the-match performance helped the Gunners see off Everton for a fourth straight league win.

Two goals in three second-half minutes gave the hosts victory, with

RED RAMPAGE: Mohamed Salah was back on the scoresheet in Liverpool’s win.

Alexandre Lacazette curling a shot into the top corner to get them on the board.

Shortly after, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang poked in from close range on being set up by Aaron Ramsay.

Arsenal will host the season’s surprise package Watford on Saturday, and drifters Everton will face Fulham.

La Liga Preview

Asensio is the Real deal REAL MADRID briefly moved to the top of La Liga after Marco Asensio’s VAR-awarded strike proved enough to edge Espanyol 1-0.

Asensio drilled in a low show just before the break when Luka Modric’s effort deflected into his path, with the goal given after a lengthy review.

Borjas Iglesias hit the crossbar for the spirited visitors with a deft chip, as Real’s underwhelming display left them fortunate to take all three points.

Isco and Asensio once again showed how vital they will be to the new era at Real, the Spain pair being key to most of their side’s play.

Los Blancos will host rivals Atletico Madrid on Saturday, while Espanyol will travel to strugglers Real Valladolid on Friday.

Gerard Pique rescued 10-man Barcelona in a pulsating Catalan derby against Girona after Clement Lenglet was shown a red card at the Nou Camp.

Barca were leading 1-0 when defender Lenglet was dismissed in the 35th minute for elbowing Pere Pons.

Girona levelled through Cristhian Stuani before the Uruguay forward rifled the visitors into the lead.

Despite playing with a man down, Barca carved out the better chances and Pique deservedly headed in the equaliser for 2-2, to restore his side to the top of the league.

Barca will host Athletic Bilbao on Saturday, while Girona will travel to Huesca on Sunday.

RESCUE ACT: Marco Asensio’s goal proved key for Real Madrid.

Atletico Madrid warmed up for their derby against Real with a 2-0 win at Getafe, with an own goal by keeper David Soria setting them on their way.

Thomas Lemar’s 30-yard shot came back off the crossbar before hitting Soria on the back and rolling in.

Atletico were far from their fluent best but Lemar doubled the lead after the interval with a composed finish.

Diego Simeone’s side are up to fifth in the table after a first away win, while 10th placed Getafe will face Celta Vigo on Monday looking to stay in touch with the leading pack.

Other fixtures this weekend will see Levante host Alaves, Sevilla travel to EIbar and Real Sociedad entertain Valencia.

behind United in 10th, as Jose Mourinho’s side climb to fifth.

United will travel to West Ham on Saturday, while Wolves will take on Southampton.

Other fixtures this weekend will see bottom side Huddersfield entertain Tottenham, Bournemouth host Crystal Palace, and Leicester go to Newcastle.

27 September - 3 October 2018 DENISE MUELLER-KORENEK, a 45-year-old mother of three, has become the fastest human on a bicycle reaching 183.9mph to shatter a 20-year-old land speed record on a custom-made bike that was attached to a drag racing car.

WORLD champion Marc Marquez claimed his first win in four Moto GP races after a tremendous battle with Andrea Dovizioso in Aragon.

The pair were at the front for almost the entire race after polesitter Jorge Lorenzo crashed out on the opening turn.

Suzuki’s Andrea Iannone and Alex Rins tried to close the gap late on but Honda rider Marquez took control in the last three laps and held on to win his home grand prix.

Joshua had showcased his poise, intellect and devastating power, sending a message to the heavyweight division that the champion will take some stopping.

He had even been suffering from flu during his preparations and had a problem with his right hand be-

fore the fight, but said: “I knew he was strong in the head but weak to the body, I was just mixing it up.

“It could have been seven, maybe nine, maybe 12 rounds to get him out of there, but the ultimate aim was to be victorious.

TIGER’S BACK: Tiger Woods celebrates his first tour title in five years.

Tiger pounces on win AN emotional Tiger Woods completed an astonishing comeback to win the season-ending Tour Championship by two shots and record his first win in five years.

The 42-year-old’s victory in Atlanta was his 80th PGA tour title - only fellow American Sam Snead has more - but his first since August 2013.

Less than a year ago he was 1,199 in the world after spinal fusion surgery, the latest of multiple operations.

“I was having a hard time not crying on that last hole,” said Woods.

“I just can’t believe I’ve pulled this off.”

Thousands of fans filed on to the 18th fairway to follow Woods to the green chanting

‘U-S-A’ and ‘Tiger, Tiger’ after his approach found a bunker on the edge of the green.

Woods holed out for a par to complete a final round of 71 for an 11-under total before holding his arms aloft in celebration of a brilliant win just days before the Ryder Cup gets underway in Paris.

England’s Justin Rose lost his world number one ranking as a result of finishing tied fourth, but secured the overall FedEx Cup which determines the season-long PGA Tour champion, the first Englishman to do so.

Rose birdied the 18th at East Lake for a 73 to finish on six under and seal the top-five finish he needed to win the €8.5 million bonus on offer as FedEx Cup champion.

Marquez win extends lead July, five rounds ago, including the abandoned Silverstone meeting.

Marquez, who now leads Dovizioso by 72 points in the

standings with five races to go, opted to use soft tyres in the searing heat of Spain while many of his rivals used harder tyres.

The start of the race saw Lorenzo go wide and he crashed out for the second race in a row.

In a relatively slow-paced race, Marquez and Dovizioso fought it out and as the lead changed hands, Iannone and Rins were poised to seize on any mistakes.

However, they were not given a chance and Marquez went past his rival again with five laps to go to claim his 41st MotoGP career win.

ANTHONY JOSHUA delivered a stunning finish to knock out Alexander Povetkin and retain his world heavyweight titles at Wembley Stadium.

The IBF, WBO and WBA champion, produced a punishing seventh-round stoppage of the Russian, who had never been beaten inside the distance.

Early on though it was Povetkin who appeared the more inspired by the occasion, despite the constant boos and jeers from the partisan crowd, and he caught Joshua in the first round with an uppercut to the nose.

But the Briton grew in confidence and a brutal right hand followed by a left hook began an onslaught from which his challenger had no answer.

Another right-left combination downed Povetkin, who somehow made the count, only to stumble into a left hook and a further flurry of punches on the ropes which forced referee Steve
