Klavina verdict By Joe Gerrard TWO British defendants on trial over the disappearance of a Latvian waitress from a Marbella nightclub have been cleared of kidnap and found guilty of coercion. Malaga Provincial Court handed Westley Capper, 41, and Craig Porter, 37, jail terms of two years and six months respectively. The court convicted them of coercing 30-year-old Agnese Klavina into getting into Capper’s Mercedes in September 2014. Siana Ousmani, a nightclub bouncer also standing trial, was cleared of all charges. Capper and Porter’s prison sentences may be suspended due to Spanish laws which typically suspend jail terms of two years or less.

Rachel Johnson talks to EWN CANDIDATE Johnson first met with Chief Minister for Gibraltar, Fabian Picardo, at the headquarters of Her Majesty’s Government of Gibraltar at Covent Place, where he said he ‘could see Change UK having more of a future in Westminster rather than Europe.’ Explaining her motives for getting involved with Change UK, Johnson said she has lost faith in Parliament to find a solution before the October 31 Brexit deadline. She added: “Nobody knows what’s going on from one minute to the next… there’s no appetite for any sort of Brexit and no majority for Theresa May’s deal.” Asked what words she had for Britons living in Spain and Gibraltar, Johnson said: “Keep calm. These things need a lot of negotiation but British people in Spain are not going to be thrown under the bus, by the UK or Spain, that’s not grown up politics.”

ACTION: Almeria Province’s Tabernas Desert has long been a favourite for filmmakers.
Europe’s Hollywood THIS picture of a Wild West film set in Almeria Province comes as new figures show movie making was responsible for an investment of almost €123.8 million into Spain last year. The Spanish Film Commission’s data showed the Treasury netted almost €8.7 million in payments for social security from film contracts in 2018. The film industry contracted a total of 21,809 people during the year, according to the Commission. One of the latest productions, the
US-made neo-Western The Sisters Brothers starring Joaquin Phoenix and John C Reilly, had a budget of around €38 million for shooting in Spain. It was shot in Navarra’s Urbasa-Andia natural park in the summer of 2017. Spain has long been a favourite for filmmakers, particularly those from the US who sought locations for Western films in the 1950s and 1960s. Texas Hollywood-Fort Bravo, Mini Hollywood and Western Leone were all built in Almeria Province’s
Tabernas Desert as sets for the Spaghetti Westerns. A Fistful of Dollars, Vengeance and Boot Hill were among the Westerns shot on location in the desert. Other films including the epics Lawrence of Arabia, El Cid and King of Kings were also made there. Recent years have seen US TV series Game of Thrones shoot in various locations across Spain. The British film Off the Rails and the US move Wonder Woman 1984 were both shot in Spain last year, in Mallorca and Almeria City respectively.

NATIONAL POLICE dismantled a hash selling point in an apartment in Malaga City last week which led to the arrest of two suspects, a male and a female. The suspects are a 22-year-old Spanish couple who are now due to appear in court in connection with the drug dealing. During a search of the suspects’ home, investigators seized 74 doses of hash amounting to a total of 1,350 grams, €580 in cash, a gun with 38 cartridges and several tools used for preparing the drugs. Police began their investigation after neighbours claimed the apartment was being used to sell drugs. Officers claimed they saw a constant flow of people entering the apartment and leaving seconds later. Most of them were in possession of hash, proving they were buyers, investigators alleged.

What’s in a name MORE than 300 Spanish families have given their children names inspired by Game of Thrones. The series, which reached Spain in 2011, has become so popular that according to National Statistics Institute (INE) Spain had 57 Daenerys and 270 girls called Arya by 2017. The average age for girls called Daenerys is 2.2 years, while an Arya is usually 2.4 years old. Most were registered in Madrid and Barcelona.

INE only collate names that are registered 20 or more times and it is possible that there are also children named after Bran or Tyrion that do not show up in the records. One mother, Sheila Sanchez, did admit shortly before the final episode that she regretted her choice of name after the burning of King’s Landing: “If I’d known, I’d never have called you Daenerys,” she told her daughter.
Antibiotic resistance threat SPAIN is one of the highest countries in the world for consuming antibiotics. According to the Spanish Agency for Medicines and Health Products (AEMPS), Spain ranks fifth in the world for consumption of the medication. Despite that, experts warn the country does not have any units specialising in infectious diseases to provide an alternative to antibiotic use. Jose Miguel Cisneros, president of the Spanish Society of Infectious Diseases and Clinical Microbiology (SEIMC), said: “In Spain, unlike what happens in the European Union [except Belgium, Luxembourg and Cyprus] and the US, there is no specialisation.” Juan Pablo Horcajada, head of Infectious Diseases at the Hospital del Mar in Barcelona, added: “Spain is one of the countries that consumes more antibiotics, among other reasons, there is a lack of medical training because there is no specialty of infectious diseases.”

THE WEEK IN POLITICS By Joe Gerrard MEMBERS of the Spanish Cortes met in Madrid to be sworn in on Tuesday following April’s election, with the day underscoring stark changes to the political landscape. Lawmakers in the Congress of Deputies and Senate form Spain’s 13th legislature since the country’s transition to democracy. The new crop of lawmakers, which in many ways provides a snapshot of Spain’s current body-politic, has already made history in a number of ways. Spain has had a two-party system up until the last decade or so. The left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) and the conservative Partido Popular (PP) together took the vast majority of seats. Tuesday showed that the current political landscape could not be more different. Spanish politics has fragmented into a multi-party system, highlighted by the fact PSOE is far short of an overall majority despite winning 29 per cent

On the left the previously ascendant PSOE now shares its side of the parliamentary hemicycle with the leftist Podemos, which retained its foothold in the Congress of Deputies. The right is now divided into three, with the PP only having nine seats more than the centrist Ciudadanos and the far-right Vox entering the Con-
gress for the first time. The latter party’s congressional breakthrough is significant because it is the first time such a party has had national representation since Francisco Franco’s dictatorship. Some members of the proCatalan independence Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya (ERC) also made history for being the first Congress members to be sworn in while in
police custody. Oriol Junqueras and three others on trial over the 2017 independence push were allowed to leave prison for the ceremony and entered the Congress building with police escorts. The day also saw a changing of the guard at the head of the Congress and the Senate. Mexitxell Batet took over from Ana Pastor as president of the lower house while Manuel Cruz became head of the Senate. Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez chose to nominate two Catalans for the posts as an apparent gesture to the region which continues to be rocked by fallout from the independence push. Talks to form a government are now set to continue but all parties have said no announcements will be made before this Sunday’s elections.
European elections SPANISH voters are set to cast their ballots in EU elections on Sunday, with 54 seats out in the 751-seat European Parliament up for grabs. Almost 420 million Europeans are set to vote in the election. The last European Parliament election was held in 2014 when Spain’s conservative Partido Popular (PP) won the most seats with 16. Unlike countries such as Britain which are divided into constituencies for the EU election, Spanish members of the European Parliament (MEPs) represent the entire country. They are elected by proportional representation, meaning each party is allocated seats according to its share of the vote. Spain’s MEPs join European-wide groupings made up of similar parties from other countries once in the Parliament. The left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) is part of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats (S&D) and the PP is in the European People’s Party (EPP). The centrist Ciudadanos members sit with the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe (ALDE) while leftist Podemos MEPs sit with The European United Left (GUE/NGL). The European Parliament votes on budgets and other legislation and for holding the Commission to account.

DISPUTED: Spain and Morocco both claim Perejil.
Migrants stuck on disputed island RELATIONS between Spain and Morocco were tested last week after Madrid and Rabat entered talks to decide who had the reasonability of rescuing eight stranded migrants from a disputed islet. A Guardia Civil patrol boat has already visited Perejil, which lies off the Moroccan coast close to the Spanish enclave of Ceuta. Officers confirmed the mi-
grants, believed to be from sub-Saharan Africa and to have sailed from Morocco, were on the islet. They are thought to have been stranded there after their boat capsized in rough seas in the Strait of Gibraltar. Spanish government representatives in Ceuta told the media Madrid and Rabat had entered talks to decide who should rescue the people and
where they should be taken. Spain and Morocco both claim Perejil, which is uninhabited and lies about eight kilometres away from Ceuta and more than 200 metres from Morocco. Tensions came to a head in July 2002 when then Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar despatched 50 soldiers there to evict a Moroccan naval crew which claimed it.

BREXIT BRIEF European elections BRITISH voters go to the polls today (Thursday) for the European Parliament elections which are expected to return an upset result for the country’s two main parties. The pro-leave Brexit Party has continued to consolidate its lead, according to polling data. A YouGov poll of more than 9,200 voters showed they had the support of 34 per cent of voters. The Liberal Democrats came second with 17 per cent of support after launching a fervently pro-remain campaign. The Liberal Democrats have pushed Labour into third place with 15 per cent of support. They have a four point lead on the Greens, which is also campaigning on a remain platform and has 11 per cent of voter backing. The ruling Conservatives came fifth with 9 per cent. It comes as a Conservative Home survey found 60 per cent of party members were planning on backing the Brexit Party. Change UK, which has courted the support of remain-leaning voters, polled at 4 per cent. The party has been beset by problems including gaffes from candidates since its launch as The Independent Group in February. UKIP, which won the most British seats in the 2014 EU election, polled at 3 per cent.
BREXIT EXTRA
Trying again By Joe Gerrard BRITAIN’S prime minister is set to redouble her efforts to pass her Brexit deal and said she will make a ‘bold’ offer to win over sceptical lawmakers. Theresa May plans to hold talks with government ministers in a bid to find a way through the Brexit impasse. The prime minister wrote in the British press: ‘I still believe there is a majority in parliament to be won for leaving with a deal. ‘When the Withdrawal Agreement Bill comes before MPs, it will represent a new, bold offer.’ Deadlock continues after the House of Commons rejected her Withdrawal Agreement three times. May plans to table her draft deal for a fourth and likely final vote next month. Changes to the deal itself are impossible unless the prime minister returns to Brussels which has repeatedly ruled out reopening talks. But May could attempt to get further changes to the Political declara-

tion which sketches out Britain’s future relationship with the EU. She has also pledged to bolt guarantees on areas including workers’ rights and the environment onto her deal bill to win over moderate opposition Labour MPs. May’s pledge to tinker the deal comes as talks between the ruling Conservatives and Labour collapsed last week. The prime minister claimed they were abandoned due to internal
Labour disputes over a second referendum. Labour leader Jeremy Corby said the Conservatives had refused to give ground. “The government’s going weakness and instability means there cannot be confidence in its ability to deliver,” Corbyn said. It comes as the Labour leader said his party would back a second referendum if it were able win the next election and renegotiate the deal.

He has however spent a week in the Costa del Sol preparing a trailer for what he hopes will become an addictive and much-watched TV series in conjunction with filmmaker Jeff Clarke. As a member of a minority and a working class lad who spent time as a DJ, he went to Germany and became a security officer for the US Army equivalent of NAAFI and heard tales of the Metropolitan Police Special Branch. He returned to the UK, spent two years on the beat and was then one of only 10 officers chosen each year to join the Special Branch which was responsible for internal security and protection of non-royal VIPs amongst other things. During his time there, he acted as a bodyguard for Tony Blair, the Clin-

Having seen there was a class and colour prejudice at senior levels in both services, he was very aware of
the possibility that disaffected black youth could be turned to Jihadism whilst working class whites could become involved on the extreme right. He was responsible for arranging deep-cover counter-subversive missions as well as running counter-terrorism programmes.
Carlton (not his real name), who became the most senior black officer in the security service eventually became disaffected with the way in which minorities within the service were treated and after 28 years of service left the force. He explained to Euro Weekly News
that he wanted to show working class minority youngsters that it was possible, although difficult, for a black officer to rise within the service, but also wanted to expose the secrecy and inherent racism within the UK systems. For four years he fought to publish his book Black Ops: The incredible true story of a British secret agent and eventually permission was given although according to him only about 25 per cent of the real story appeared. Now, he is potentially still a target for terrorists and always appears in dark glasses with photos pixilated, but he has a new project Selective Intelligence which he is making with the input and support of E17 Boy Productions (a film company based in Calahonda in Malaga Province) who are also looking for funding through Warrior Film Promotions. The concept is that boys and girls like himself will be filmed undertaking training as security operatives with the end result that at least one will be awarded a job with a high level security company.

What to do in the event of an emergency in Spain LIVING in Spain can bring with it an array of issues which may not have been encountered when living in the UK. There are lots of things to consider, and we are here to help try to make the transition and life in Spain a little easier by compiling a series of helpful facts and figures relating to a variety of topics. HERE in Spain there is a general number for all emergencies, 112. No area code is needed and the number can be called from any phone, including mobiles without a Spanish SIM card. The responders speak a number of languages, and you can also fax or SMS 112. In addition, there are individual emergency numbers, depending on the type of assistance you need. It’s a good idea to keep a printout of them handy, in your bag or wallet, in the home and in the car. And it can’t hurt to have a few helpful Spanish medical/emergency terms written down, just in case you don’t get an English-speaking member of staff. National Police, also known as National Police Corps (Cuerpo Nacional de Policia, CNP), deals with criminal offences and public order in towns and cities, and can be contacted by calling 091 or 902 102 112. The latter was set up for non-Spanish to report burglaries, car theft or a break-in when documents and belongings are lost or stolen. Available in English from 9am to 2pm, all week long, the service is also available in French, German and Italian. Once the telephone report is made,
claimants have 48 hours to check and sign their statement at the police station of their choice. In the case of robbery, where threat or force has been used, victims should call 091 at the time, then go directly to a police station to make a report. The Guardia Civil is a military force which operates mostly in rural areas and is responsible for drug offences, fatal car accidents, robberies and murders, and can be contacted on 062. Local Police (Policia municipal) cover their local town or city area for traffic offences and control, lost property and crimes such as theft and neighbourhood disputes. You can reach them on 092. And a special helpine, 016, has been set up specifically to report instances of gender violence.

Voodoo threats POLICE have raided a series of brothels in Benidorm, Madrid, Magaluf and Cadiz where trafficking victims were allegedly threatened with voodoo unless they worked as prostitutes. Migrants who had been brought from their home countries in Africa with the promise of a better life in Spain were made to work up to 14 hours a day. Police said the gang was led by three Nigerian women who targeted impoverished and vulnerable young women in their home country. Once in Spain, they were told they owed their
traffickers €40,000 which they must work off. They were also made to take part in voodoo rituals which they were told would harm them unless they agreed to work in the sex trade in Spain. During these rituals, women were allegedly covered in animal blood and threatened with death or infertility. Officers claimed: “They had to prostitute themselves every day and couldn’t come back until the early hours of the morning, after more than 14 hours... regardless of inclement weather or their own health.”

About 466,180 foreigners who are entitled to vote are signed up to the electoral register, according to figures from the National Institute of Statistics (INE). Foreigners who register their intent to vote with their council can vote in local and EU elections, but not in general or regional ballots.

She does not have Spanish citizenship and would have to pay more than €500 to get it and the vote. “The elections are approaching and I cannot vote in my own country,” she said before the ballot. Residents from EU member states can vote in elections for the European Parliament under blocwide rules.Spain has agreements with Latin American countries and others around the world which permit foreigners from their countries to vote if they have lived legally in Spain for five years.

Brexit blues for Thomas Cook BREXIT uncertainty has been blamed by Thomas Cook for a half-year loss of £1.46 billion as British consumers delayed making holiday plans. And the news sent its shares plummeting 21 per cent after it warned of ‘challenging’ trading to come in the vitally important peak summer season. The holiday company is now to cut 150 jobs at its Peterborough HQ as it continues on a cost reduction programme as it tries to weather the storm. Most of the loss came after Thomas Cook wrote down the value of the business by £1.1 billion as a result of the weak trading environment it has found itself in. Chief executive Peter Fankhauser said: “The first six months of this year have been characterised by an uncertain consumer environment across all our markets. “The prolonged heatwave last summer and high prices in the Canaries reduced customer demand for winter sun, particularly in the Nordic region, while there is now little doubt that the Brexit process has led many UK customers to delay their holiday plans for this summer.”

Iberian Lynx worth the investment IN order to try to save the Iberian Lynx from extinction, a conservation project costing â‚Ź34 million (of which â‚Ź20 million came from the European Union) has seen considerable success. The number of animals in the wild had dropped alarmingly, but thanks to a programme of captive breeding and then release into the wild, has resulted in there now being nearly 700 animals in the Iberian
Peninsula which includes Portugal with a large percentage in Andalucia. Recent figures infer that one in three of each of the females released has given birth to at least one kitten and that as the youngsters mature, so the figures will be likely to increase. The main problem is ensuring that there is sufficient food available, a ban on hunting this vulnerable species continues to be enforced and motorists are warned about areas where the Lynx now live as the biggest cause of death is from traffic.

RYANAIR: Spain is a major destination.
Spain still top for Ryanair DESPITE all of the fears concerning Brexit, Irish airline Ryanair still expects Spain to be a major tourist hub for the rest of this year and next. It has indicated that three of its most popular destinations are in Spain in Malaga, Palma and Alicante and earlier this
year it had to increase significantly the number of flights to Alicante from Birmingham, Bournemouth, Bristol, Liverpool and London Stansted. The airline had indicated that it has some fears concerning its ability to fly out of the UK following Brexit, but it would not
have increased flights so dramatically if it did not expect to continue to have a thriving market there. As it continues to expand, so new passengers will be carried from different parts of the EU but there can be little doubt that British tourists will still be important to Ryanair.

have a large number of young Spanish friends. All of those who spoke were very self-confident and the
general consensus was that whilst sports and after school clubs were useful, their big problem was to find somewhere safe that these youngsters could go to in order to hang out. Much is made of alcohol and drugs, but these adolescents are just looking to listen to music and chat without being formally supervised, safe in the knowledge that they won’t be hassled or invited to take drugs. These are the consumers of the future and any business that invests in them now could well reap profits for the future.

Airline posts new losses
Budget goes back to Cortes THE Spanish government’s draft budget for this year is set to go before lawmakers again following the general election called after it failed to pass. Acting Commerce Minister Reyes Maroto told a meeting of businesspeople in Bilbao budget plans would be put to the Cortes when the new government is sworn in. Coalition talks between the left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE), which won the most seats in the Congress of Deputies following the election, and opposition groups are ongoing. Maroto said: “I hope investments will be channelled from the new 2019 budget
By Joe Gerrard soon. It will be presented once the new government is set up and present in the Cortes.” The minister’s comments come after lawmakers rejected the governing PSOE’s budget in February. Pro-Catalan independence parties refused to support it over the region’s ongoing independence dispute. Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez then called a snap general election to shore up PSOE’s position in the Congress of Deputies. The party had 86 seats in the 350-member lower house.
Budget plans unveiled in January included €7.5 billion in infrastructure investment and a youth unemployment plan backed by €670 million. The government also budgeted €220 million to help tackle gender violence. It also made headlines for a proposal to raise the minimum wage by 21 per cent to €900 a month, the largest increase in Spain’s democratic history. The government planned to fund spending increases by tax hikes on large firms, particularly technology companies. Finance Minister Maria Jesus Montero said the budget would make the Treasury an extra €5.7 billion.
GERMAN-BASED airline TUI has posted an underlying annual loss of €300.6 million which it said was due to overcapacity in Spain and the grounding of some planes. The airline said it expected to take another profit hit if its 15 Boeing 737 MAX planes remain grounded. The company said it would clarify the situation by the end of this month. Excess supply in its operations in and out of Spain have also contributed to the losses which were higher than the €168.7 million posted last year.
» BUSINESS EXTRA
Spanish firm takeover plan BRITAIN’S opposition Labour party said it would take the Spanish Iberdrola’s subsidiary Scottish Power into public ownership if it takes power. The party said the company and others made huge profits while raising bills for customers and holding back infrastructure investments. Rebecca Ling Bailey, Labour’s Shadow Energy Secretary, said: “Many people would be surprised to
know the cables that carry gas and electricity into their homes are owned by Wall Street investment banks, multinational conglomerates and sovereign funds.” Labour plans to compensate Scottish Power shareholders with Treasury bonds. Scottish Power made more than €1 billion in pre-tax profits last year. Labour said it would nationalise other firms.
Bankrupt families THE amount of Spanish families who declared bankruptcy for not making debt payments fell by 3.3 per cent in the first quarter of this year compared to the same period of 2018, National Institute for Statistics (INE) figures show.
Reform call THE CSIF trade union has called for a change in labour laws to bring worker representation to staff in small and medium-sized companies after finding that 4.3 million of Spain’s 17 million workers are employed in non-unionised firms.
New post SPANISH Economy Minister Nadia Calviño has been appointed president of the board of governors of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) alongside her ministerial brief for a year, replacing current head Jyrki Katainen.

LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT THIS week I had decided to write something completely different. One of the banes of being a columnist is the never ending search for subject matter. As most of my offerings generally cover rather more serious, and consequently somewhat depressing subjects, I decided to look around for something a little lighter - hopefully to raise a smile or two. Well, in a sad reflection of the world we now live in, I’d have had more chance of finding something good to say about Diane Abbott! With the advent of ever increasing political correctness, even the wonderful British quality of being able to find some humour in its problems is slowly being eroded from our culture and way of life. Everywhere I looked it was doom and gloom. With the usual monotonous regularity, the UK’s entry for the Eurovision Song Contest came in last. When are people going to realise that we wouldn’t win it with Delilah, Hey Jude or even Little Arrows!? Europe hates us. And those who don’t hate us are jealous. Entering for this antiquated heap of pure elephant dung is a complete waste of time and effort. The usual affronts to our democracy and culture were also in full, unacceptable prominence this week. A highly respected GP faces a watchdog enquiry for asking a Muslim woman to raise
FEATURE
Something a little lighter?
EUROVISION ENTRY: Michael Rice came last. her veil so he could hear her describe the symptoms of her child’s malady. What was he supposed to do, guess? I wonder who would have been blamed if he had prescribed the wrong treatment? I would also like to reiterate here there is no mention in the Koran that this garment should be worn. It has no religious significance whatsoever.
It is merely insisted on by Muslim males to protect their women from the prying eyes of other men. Mayor Khan was also in the news again. This time he managed to stick his oar in to one of our most treasured British institutions by ordering the removal of a new Wimbledon poster which depicted strawberries and cream! Don’t ask. I can
only assume it had something to do with food and Ramadan! Also climbing firmly aboard the idiot bandwagon this week came ‘ealth n’ safety. Apparently Leicester Council has banned Women’s Institute cakes from a local hospice. The WI ladies had been providing cakes to 2,500 annual patients of the hospice for 40 years, but now the local council have decided that factory products are ‘more hygienic.’ Ha! I know what I’d rather have. Still looking for something amusing? Forget it. The most disturbing action this week was the convergence of young Muslim men onto the peaceful members of Tommy Robinson’s election campaign in Oldham. Video evidence clearly shows a hoard of young Asian men, many totally masked and carrying weapons, being actually escorted by police to the Robinson rally on a local housing estate. There they proceeded to pelt Robinson and his team with bricks and missiles until the police finally broke it up. At no time were Robinsons people the aggressors, but the next day the meagre press reports merely stated ‘rioting broke out at a ‘far-right’ rally of Tommy Robinson on an Oldham estate’. Not funny at all is it? Keep the faith Love Leapy. leapylee2002@gmail.com.

THE naming of Baby Sussex (as he was previously known), caught some by surprise. But, as far as naming your own child is concerned, does anything go? Well, what you can legally call your child depends on where he or she was born. In France and Germany, for instance, there are several enforceable rules, basically to protect the child’s welfare and prevent ridicule. So, no infant ‘Nutella’ or ‘Fraise’ (strawberry) in France or ‘Pfefferminze’ (peppermint) or ‘Lord’ in Germany. In Iceland things are even stricter. Parents have to choose a name from a list of about 3,500 pre-approved Icelandic names. Catchy names like ‘Yngveldur’ and ‘Osvaldur.’ And while Chinese parents have to choose names that are computer-readable, Japanese parents must select from a list of commonly used kanji characters or names. The UK is thought to be one of the more easy-going countries where, unless it’s downright offensive or a number, practically anything goes. In 2017, reportedly there were infants ‘Diesel,’ ‘Fox,’ ‘Flourish’ and ‘Mars.’ Wow! As for Scottish names registered last

year, some of the daftest are ‘Awesome,’ ‘Adora-Belle’ and ‘Wiseman.’ Celebrity singers seem to have influenced girls’ names too. Amongst the top 100 were various spellings of ‘Ariana,’ a ‘Cardi,’ and even a ‘Cher.’ Some names even got political. One baby boy was named ‘Corbyn,’ another ‘Corbyn Blue,’ and yet another ‘Boris’ (bless!). Four girls share a first name with First Minister Nicola Sturgeon. But there was only one baby ‘Theresa’ (strange that!). There was no infant ‘Trump,’ but there were six called ‘Donald,’ 10 ‘Reagan,’ two ‘Clinton’ and 113 ‘Carter.’ Which reminds me: parents please bear in mind potential name combinations. I once came across one unfortunate infant
named ‘Orson’ whose surname was Cart. (Think about it!) And a ‘Justin’ with the surname Case. Plus a ‘Peter’ Enis (P Enis). Just what was his mother thinking? But some name combinations are simply unavoidable. There was a girl I went to school with named Alison Young. We called her Ali. She later married a guy called Mark Gator. Nuff said.

LEGALLY SPEAKING Can they stop the frogs? Our apartment complex in Fuengirola is a beautiful place to live. There are two large communal pools. Between the pools, there is a pond. The problem is, from April until late July, as soon as the sun goes down, the bullfrogs in the pond start to croak and keep on until sunrise. They are so loud we cannot hear ourselves speak on our balcony. We can still hear them inside our apartment even with the windows shut. This is the same for all the residents near the pond. I have asked the president of the urbanisation but he simply says that the frogs are part of living in Spain and that they are a protected species. The frog noise is making our lives a misery. Is there anything we can do? L C (Costa del Sol) Try making a David Searl written petition You and the Law to the president and the in Spain administrator of your community signed by all the residents affected by the frog noise. If 25 per cent of the members join, you can force the calling of an EGM or at least get it on the official agenda for the next AGM.
Send your questions for David Searl through lawyers Ubeda-Retana and Associates in Fuengirola at Ask@lawtaxspain.com, or call 952 667 090.

OPINION & COMMENT

23 - 29 May 2019
YOUR PAPER - YOUR VOICE - YOUR OPINION Letters should be emailed to oursay@euroweeklynews.com or make your comments on our website: www.euroweeklynews.com DEAR Editor I, like many Brits both here and back home, am bored of Brexit. You get the impression that all the politicians care about is their own backside and their own power. We are still in limbo land, without any real clue as to what is going to happen. We do not even know what the real projected effects will be of leaving the EU, half-leaving, remaining in etcetera etcetera. We have been lied to, treated like fools, and subjected to the most ridiculous scaremongering by both the politicians, in England and at the EU, and by the mainstream media in the UK. All I do know is that I would not trust our politicians to tie their own shoe laces, let alone ours. Where are the real leaders of the type that Britain apparently used to produce? As a ‘normal’ chap, all I can say is, ‘sort it out!’ Darren Price
A black legacy YOUR article about the so-called Spanish ‘black legend’ in last week’s paper (Issue 1767) intrigued me. I have often thought the stereotype of the typical Spaniard is unpleasant in films. When I want to watch something about Spain I go with something made by people from the country for this reason. What interested me was finding out that these stereotypes have a long history, the legacy of which lingers on. I think it’s important to understand the historical context and development of such things to learn about their present state and how we can move away from tarring everyone with the same brush. Leapy Lee could do with a history lesson along those lines to cure him of his obsession with negative stereotypes about immigrants, made all the more ironic because he is one. Stuart McPherson
Having a ball I READ your article about the Cannon and Ball show in last week’s Costa del Sol edition (Issue 1767) with interest and nostalgia. The Cannon and Ball show was a favourite of mine and a fixture in our home in the 1980s. I always found their social observance comedy hilarious, it was a real commentary on life and society at the time. They were great ambassadors for the north of England too. It’s great to hear the duo are still going strong and that they were able to entertain expatriates on the Costa. And it was lovely to see they managed to reunite with an old friend of theirs. What a nice, funny pair they are. Jim Thompson
OUR VIEW Right to vote
Views expressed and opinions given are not necessarily those of the EWN publishers. No responsibility is accepted for accuracy of information, errors, omissions or statements.
Bored of Brexit DEAR Ed My God what a lot of whingers we are! We whinge about the roads, the dogs, the noise of the fiestas, the food, the local council, the internet, the weather, the Spanish drivers, the apparent lack of manners of our host nation, the list is endless. In fact, I have decided that many Brits just enjoy whingeing, to the extent I am convinced that if the 100-metre whinge were to be an Olympic sport then the British would win the gold medal, with little competition. Maybe, just maybe, some of us misery-guts should open our eyes a little, and see what a beautiful country Spain is. It is a land of tradition, of rugged beauty
Whingeing Brits
OBLIGATORY: A fortnight caravanning in the British rain for whingers. and great friendly people, who, on the whole, welcome us ‘foreigners’ with open arms and a smile. Maybe it should be obligatory for anyone

FINDINGS this week which showed almost three quarters of legally registered foreigners cannot vote in Spain has rightly led to calls for change. Labour Ministry data showed about 27 per cent, or almost 1.3 million, of the roughly 4.7 million foreigners registered in Spain would be entitled to vote in elections this Sunday. Spanish voters are set to cast their ballots in local, regional and European elections. Legally registered foreigners who have told their council they intend to vote can cast ballots in local and EU elections. But foreigners and expatriates are not allowed to vote in regional or national elections. Being able to vote is a crucial part of the social contract in the community in which people live. The democratic compact which sees citizens elect politicians to speak on their behalf means politicians have an incentive to respond to their needs. Those same politicians, be they a local councillor, Congress deputy or Member of the European Parliament (MEP), take decisions that affect all our lives. Although many expatriates may not have decided to become fully-fledged Spanish citizens, we still form part of and contribute to the community around us. Many own businesses or work in those run by Spanish entrepreneurs. They pay taxes, use Spanish hospitals, send children to its schools and are protected by its police force. It follows therefore that expatriates and foreigners should have a say about how the institutions which affect them and their families are run.

Travellers arrested trying to leave airport Why do they ALL want to go to London? What is the attraction? Listen to the lefties there and it is racist, violent, unfair, children living in poverty, food banks, fascist police, and all the rest. But still people want to leave France and Spain and go there. Surely it can’t be the Benefit system, the free NHS treatment, free education, housing, clean water . . . can it ? PM
Spanish electric bills among EU’s highest with consumers paying up to twice the price of some other countries For the last 10 years we’ve been saying that - but the prices keep rising. We KNOW electricity is expensive in Spain, but nothing is done. Annie
COMMENTS FROM EWN ONLINE And the bills appear to rise every month with no intervention by the government or an ombudsman. The problem is that Iberdrola have almost a complete monopoly over energy supply. You only have to look at British TV with their numerous ‘switch energy suppliers’ adverts to get the best deal to realise that in Spain that option is not really available. It’s more or less Iberdrola and nobody else. It’s time the energy minister (if there is one) did something about it. Ian This is known as legal theft.

One of the most expensive destinations for holiday rentals this summer in Spain Tourism will go down, then the hoteliers will complain and put their prices up and the law of unintended consequences will take over. Hoteliers lobbied for ‘control’ over holiday lets, adding to landlord’s costs for A/C, registration, management etc, then they complain about reduced numbers of tourists. Mickey

Marbella Moments by Nicole King HAVING had the invaluable assistance of Natalie Neil to help put #UN MS2019 together and Georgina Shaw to guide the event along as MC, I was quietly confident that it would all turn out well. I was right! They were amazing and truly I can’t thank them both enough, so, once again: Natalie and Georgina, THANK YOU!!! The venue, (Finca Amalur Alabardero) although unfamiliar to many and difficult to pronounce if you’re not Spanish, was idyllic. Superb grounds and ocean views gave a garden fête feel to the day and the weather was particularly glorious! I want to pause a moment to appreciate it all. Far too often we rush through things to get them done without taking the time to savour the experience, before, during or after. Undoubtedly the students of the English International College were the highlight of the day. They gave an amazing presentation on sustainability; they were so articulate and delivered their message with such conviction and feeling; hopefully their words didn’t fall on deaf ears.

We did it! Thank you They also spoke up in the ‘teen’ section, reaffirming their need for safe, hangout spaces and a more stable ‘community’ life for international children. Once again Marea Negra, the official bodyguard association of Security & Bodyguards offered their services to ensure the premises were secure, so thank you Pedro Santamaria of Master Security for organising it and ‘Richard’ (Ricardo Gomez Fernandez) for spending all day with us having come from another job and not slept all night!!! Our main sponsor Linea Directa gave us a 25 per cent discount code C007701 for car, bike and home insurance for #UNMS2019, as well as the free taxi service four times a month for policyholders and their road traffic safety foundation supporting our @zero hero incentive - how can I be more grateful? Plus, without them we wouldn’t have even had the first #UNMS event;
THE END OF THE EVENT: A ‘we did it ‘ moment, L - R Georgina Shaw, Nicole King and Natalie Neil.
a big company with a heart which actually lives up to its claims, caring for international residents; something perhaps we can all be truly grateful for. This year we also had the support of CK La Quinta, a new old-age care come home in Marbella and the Rotary Club Marbella-Guadalmina were the first to come on board to help our local community - thank you so very much for supporting and believing in us being #bettertogether. Thank you to our British and Danish Consuls for attending and Marbella Foreigners Department for their presence and support. Also a big thanks to John Smith and of course, hats off to our Euro Weekly News! Also I have to say ‘chapó’ to Sean our RTV Marbella intern who did an amazing job filming the event and to Pablo Martinez, also on cameras. ‘Gracias mil’ Esteban on sound, courtesy of the Foreigners Department, and Natalie and Georgina, once again, thank you - we did it! See you next week, hugs and happiness, Nicole.
How stupid are you? Mike Senker In my opinion Views of a Grumpy Old Man WELL I’ve seen it all now. I recently had to log on to the police website webpol.policia.es - by following a link they sent me and this is what came up ‘This website may be impersonating ‘webpol.polica.es’ to steal your personal or financial information You should close this page.’ This had to be a mistake surely but, of course, it wasn’t. Mrs S pointed out this was not the first time this had happened. Apparently a similar message had come up before when trying to log on to another official site. How on earth can this happen? How can the police and other official sites not be safe? Not only unsafe but so dodgy my browser on my iPhone wouldnit even open it? Is there anybody out there that can explain it to me? One of the problems is that I had to ignore the warning and open it because it is the only way to register rental clients’ information including all their passport details, names and dates of birth. Surely their sites should be the most secure of them all?
Who do you complain to and do they even care? It’s hard enough to follow all the crazy rules they seem to make up on a weekly basis without having to worry that the information you are giving them is totally unsecure but, hey ho, if they don’t care why should I? Settled down on Saturday night to watch Britain’s Got Talent. A couple of singers were OK, then a magician. He was very good. Then a bloke came on and decided to hang upside down on a pole after swallowing a sword and do something called a death drop. Just before he did this a message came up on screen saying ‘DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME.’ Well thank goodness that came up as I was just trying to swallow the carving knife and tie my ankles to the chandelier but I saw that and thought oh that’s a shame I was looking forward to doing that. Seriously do they honestly think it’s necessary to put these messages up on screen? Do they think you are stupid enough to try a knife throwing act or set yourself on fire in a straight jacket in the comfort of your own lounge? And if you are that type of deranged maniac, putting a message on the screen is certainly not going to stop you!

DID YOU KNOW?
FOR NEXT 7 DAYS AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) Working in the dark is not your favourite thing. Blazing lights on everything is more your style. Why, then, do you not have control of the facts? Maybe hiding in the shadows and avoiding something has put you where you are. Let others know that the lights are about to be switched on.
PISCES (February 20 - March 20) Throwing money at a problem will not make it go away, it will merely be a delaying tactic. Life is not always so simple that it brings you comfort. Coming to terms and dealing with something is necessary for your peace of mind. I do not want to appear dramatic, merely practical.
wind. You feel that, if you grasp it, finances will improve. Your hesitation is felt as weakness but it is good to check. See this branch from all angles. The last thing that you want is to tug on it and find that it is too much to hold. You may not go to the woods this week, but you will receive an offer.

VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) Are you hoping that a recent acquaintance will provide the answer to a question? Your friends have given their opinions but you are still not convinced. Here is a situation where expert advice is needed, not a random opinion. A few pennies will be well spent and save you lots of tension later.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20) There is something comfortable about your life at the moment. Even though there seems to be a good reason to change it, you hesitate. A situation seems to have become outdated and no longer works well.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) Starting on a new hobby or job has opened your eyes to much that is round you. You ask yourself why it was not so clear to you before. This does not matter. This is where you are and where you need to be at the moment.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) The buzz in your head is not a mysterious thing. It is the sound of something quite different. Clearly, it is time to act on an idea held for a long time. The buzz will not go away until you are satisfied. Get with the yoga and plan your approach. One step at a time avoids confusion.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) An emotional journey which you made last year comes to mind again. Although there are adjustments to be made, you are now more at ease. Whichever way you go now will be a lucky improvement in your sphere.
LEO (July 24 - August 23) A branch is dangling in the
There is a lot to take on board this week. At times, you may feel that it is too much to cope with. You, however, are made of stronger stuff. Are you telling me that Fred down the road is better than you? No, of course not. Show everyone what you are made of this week by getting it sorted..
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) Yours is a big heart, but be more selective about what and who you let in. As you are currently seeing things so clearly, make some choices. Your quality of both life and work will change for the better. You are not being selfish. You know there is such a thing as necessary self-preservation.

IN her latest novel, author Hilary Davidson explores how easy it is to get away with murder. Following an apparent suicide and a disappearance, it seems one man may have gotten away with murder twice. NYPD detective Sheryn Sterling has been watching Alex Traynor, a war journalist suffering from PTSD, ever since his friend Cori fell to her death under suspicious circumstances a year ago. While her friend’s death was ruled a suicide, Sheryn thinks Alex is responsible and has somehow gotten away with murder. When Alex’s fiance, Emily, a talented and well-liked local doctor, goes missing, Sheryn believes Alex may have struck. As Sheryn begins investigating both her friend’s death and Emily’s disappearance, she begins to question whether she really has got the right man. It seems everyone remembers the night of Cori’s death differently and that finding the truth behind it could be the way to solve Emily’s disappearance.

IN 1613, William Shakespeare was considered the greatest writer of his time, but his world shatters when the Globe Theatre burns down and he is forced to return home to Stratford Upon Avon. Confronted with his troubled past and angry family, and dealing with the grief of losing his only son, Hamnet, Shakespeare struggles to readjust to life back home. As he works to repair his relationship with his wife and daughters, he begins to consider his own failings as a family man, and examines his life up until now. All is True, starring Kenneth Branagh, Judi Dench, and Ian McKellan, explores the life of the man behind the plays. The film also fills in some of the blanks surrounding Shakespeare’s final years, as well as offering a glimpse into Elizabethan England.

The power of asking the right questions Joris Plu WE humans love to talk. Well, not all of us but many of us. Talking and asking questions, all the time, sometimes all day long. We have a word for it, it’s called communicating. Some people are very good at it and they inspire others who are listening. So saying something, asking questions, listening… all this is part of our human communication. Where is all this leading to y o u m a y a s k y o u r s e l f . We l l , I would like to talk to you about asking ‘the right’ questions. We can discuss for days and weeks what talking is all about, even the question part. But for now let us stick to the power of asking the right ques-
POSITIVE THINKING: Change the way your brain thinks. t i o n s . A n d i n p a r t i c u l a r, t h a t enormous power of asking the right questions of ‘yourself.’ Why do I want to write about this? Because far too many people, including myself at times, are asking ourselves the wrong questions. ‘The quality of our lives is
closely related to the quality of our questions’ - a quote from Michael Angier. Remember that every question we ask ourselves, our brain will always respond to it accordingly. Let me give you some examples of questions we should not ask ourselves from now on.
Many things in our lives happen to us all the time, good and not so good, and we tend to ask questions like ‘What am I doing wrong this time?’ or ‘Why do those things always happen to me?’ or ‘Why can I not like myself for who I am?’ or even ‘What is wrong with me?’ Have a closer look over the next few days at the questions you are beating yourself up with. Most of them have a negative feeling about them. Your brain will always give you answers. Only if you ask questions in a much more positive way, will your brain give you more positive answers. So future questions could be like ‘I made a mistake, I am open for a positive change, what can I learn from it?’ or ‘Why do I deserve all these wonderful things in my life?’ or ‘What is
good about myself?’ or ‘What can I do to like myself much more?’ or ‘How can I make this day a great day?’ These questions are far more powerful put in a positive way and they will help your brain get used to this new positive way of thinking, which is always a good thing. Just give it a try. It works, believe me. Enjoy your powerful positive questions.

By Estelle Mitchell www.thebodyworksclinic.com WHEN we were discussing seminar topics, the one suggested left and right was sciatica! This is obviously a topic people think about in connection with physiotherapy. And I was looking back at the articles I’ve written for the EWN and my own blog over the last decade and realised, I have NEVER written about sciatica!! So here goes, my first EVER article about sciatica! Fingers crossed! What is it? Sciatica is when you get pain along the course of the sciatic nerve. The sciatic nerve is the largest single nerve in the whole body! It runs from your lumbar spine, through your hips/buttocks into your knee, calf and all the way to your foot. So sciatica can cause pain or problems at any point along this nerve.
Sciatica - the facts And it can be caused by pain or problems at any point along the nerve from spine to toes! What does it feel like? Interestingly it does not really feel like back pain! Although the back is obviously part of the root cause. Sciatica is nerve pain. So you usually feel it in the buttocks, legs and/or feet (one side worse than the other): • Shooting / burning pain • Pins and needles or tingling • Weakness or a feeling the leg won’t support you • Can move around or come and go without any obvious trigger • Can feel similar to leg cramps or other ‘odd’ sensations ‘ nerve pain can be confusing. • Often feels worse after periods of inactivity / fixed posture like sitting What next? Short term: • Gentle movement and whatever stretches feel comfortable will make
SCIATICA: Can cause pain or problems along the nerve.
it feel a little easier. Rest will often make you feel stiffer and more uncomfortable. • Ice pack on your lower back to
reduce inflammation • Or heat on the leg where it feels painful - the destination of that nerve pain likes it warm!
HEALTH & BEAUTY
Long term: • If the pain lasts for more than 24-48 hours or happens very regularly then you need a professional! • We need to look at reducing the inflammation along the nerve and the muscle tension as well as helping the spine get back into a stronger, healthier condition. • Avoid injections as all they do is mask the symptoms. If you are having trouble controlling your bowel movements or getting persistent numbness around your genitals get professional help immediately! But it’s not about sciatica. One key thing to remember is that sciatica or sciatic pain is a symptom NOT a condition. So if the treatment you are getting is only focused on treating the sciatica and not understanding the cause or root of the problem . . . it’s only ever going to be temporary. Yes, at the beginning pain relief has to be a primary goal, but that’s a short term goal. Long term, the whole point is to understand and treat the root cause so it doesn’t come back!
For more information about back pain and sciatica check out the detailed guide and podcast on our website www.TheBodyworksClinic.com , our Facebook page ‘Bodyworks Health Clinic’ or call us on 952 883 151.
Summer lovin’ Kate Broadhead Health and Lifestyle coach GONE are the dark nights and the cravings for comfort food - pies, potatoes, gravy, Sunday roasts and desserts with custard... I hope! Summer is feeling like it is almost upon us and our diets tend to change at this time of year too. With the long hot days there are no excuses not to experiment with tapas and salads, especially if you live in this wonderful Mediterranean climate. Salad to most people conjures up images of lettuce, tomato and cucumber. Maybe a bit of onion if you’re really adventurous! But salad can be way more exciting than that! If you are on a high carb day, why not add some chickpeas or cous cous into the mix? Experiment with different cheeses, meats, fish, and even some fruits go fantastic with salads, especially strawberries, orange and kiwi. On low carb days you can treat your-
SALAD DRESSING: Depends on whether it’s a low or high carb day. self to a high fat dressing such as full fat mayo, ranch or Caesar dressing and for high carb days stick to low carb varieties such as vinaigrette. Greek salad is fantastic for low carb day with the addition of feta cheese, olives and olive oil. Good fats and delicious! Just be aware of sneaky ingredients which you think would be ok but are notoriously high in carbs! Carrot, sweetcorn and a large amount of avocado can tip the balance too much the other way, so be careful!
The Italian classic Insalata Caprese is also a perfect low carb light option. Layers of mozzarella and good quality tomato with a drizzle of pesto and olive oil. Anyone missing the pie and mash yet?

‘Alzheimer’s symptoms show early’ EARLY warning signs of Alzeheimer’s disease could present themselves many years before symptoms begin, according to new research. A recent study found a type of protein was more prevalent in the spinal fluid of patients who had a high risk of the disease. Scientists found the tau protein could present itself up to 34 years before a patient showed any signs of memory loss. The protein is thought to cluster in an area of the brain responsible for memory, and may be connected to Alzheimer’s disease later in life.
Researchers believe the protein travels through the brain as the disease progresses. The latest research at Johns Hopkins University showed early detection could be possible. Led researcher, Dr Laurent Younes, said: “Our study suggests it may be possible to use brain imaging and spinal fluid analysis to assess risk of Alzheimer ’s disease before the most common symptoms, such as mild cognitive impairment, occur.” Dementia is thought to affect around 850,000 people in the UK.
IF the changing seasons, constant air conditioning or sun exposure have made your skin more sensitive than normal, you may find yourself reacting to products your skin can normally cope with. If that is the case, why not trying switching things up with some nature-based, gentle alternatives designed to promote skin health and return its glow? For deodorants, exfoliators, body washes and moisturisers to soothe sensitive skin, check out Kai’s Rose line (from £20/€ 22.89, www.cultbeauty. co.uk), a paraben and sulphatefree line inspired by nature. Packed full of vitamins and antioxidants, the range uses natural oils and butters to hydrate and calm skin, while gardenia, rose absolute, bergamot, geranium, cedar wood, and clove work to soothe the senses. Alternatively, for facial skincare which combines the best of nature and science, check out Boscia’s sulphate-free Purifying Cleansing Gel (€30.95, www.sephora.es).
Gentle on sensitive skin, this cleanser will help to remove any build-up including any SPF or make-up which may be irritating skin, at the same time as protecting skin’s natural moisture barrier. While for some years it was difficult to find all-natural make-up alternatives with the same staying power and impact as other products, a new generation of organic, gentle alternatives is also being hailed as a breakthrough in natural makeup. For lip and cheek colour, try Olio E Osso’s coloured balms (£27/€30.91, www.naturisi mo.com). These beeswax and olive-based balms contain mineral pigments to gently add colour at the same time as hydrating. Alternatively, for an all-inone product which can be used on eyes as well as lips and cheeks, try Manasi7’s All Over Colour (€45, www.manasi7. com), which contains sweet almond oil, apricot kernel oil and beeswax to nourish skin, and

The final countdown FOR those who want to enjoy some of the finest Classic Rock live, then the Rock the Coast Festival in Fuengirola is just a few weeks away and tickets have been selling fast, although there are still some available. There are two packed days and nights of rock with tickets costing €80 a day or €150 for both days, with some formidable appearances from bands old and new. There are three stages, which should ensure a quick turn-around of performers and there is a German feeling to the first day as headliners for Friday June 14 include UDO, Scorpions, UFO and Europe alongside 17 other bands. Saturday June 15 sees one of just four worldwide appearances of 2019 of Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow who have released a new single with other headliners being Magnum, The Darkness, Opeth and Michael Monroe (for-

homage to Joni Mitchell, Randy Newman and Rob Meurer. This is to some extent a departure from his normal musical offerings as it is mainly instrumental with words backed by strings during the choruses and could almost be described as a gui t ar al bum wi t h words which are very personal to Cross. Tickets for this concert cost f rom €50 upwards and can be purchased online from the usual agencies. There will be four additional concerts in August all featuring Spanish jazz, pop, rock and flamenco artists and information on these can be found at www.auditorioarena marbella.com.
Manilva Pride FOR the third year running, the town of Manilva will be holding its own Pride event this time on June 14, 15 and 16. With an emphasis on music, there are more than 20 artists from all over Europe due to perform and the organisers are expecting visitors from Spain as well as the UK, Ireland, Belgium, Sweden, Holland, Norway, France and many more to arrive to enjoy the fun. For the first time, this year, there will be regular bus services from both Malaga and Torremolinos bringing guests to Manilva Pride. Find out more by visiting www.facebook.com/ ManilvaPride.
La Noche Blanco SHOPKEEPERS and other businesses in Estepona will be taking part in the official Noche Blanco organised by the local council whereby they will be open with special offers from 8pm to 2am on Saturday June 1. This is becoming an increasingly popular concept along the Costa del Sol with shops that register offering one-off discounts or other deals to shoppers on the night. It is considered a way of boosting sales within the town and to hopefully attract visitors from other parts of the costa to spend money in the shops, bars and restaurants.

This week Celebrity Chef from Ready Steady Cook & Fellow Master Chef Steven Saunders, proprietor of The Little Geranium in La Cala cooks a tapas celebration lunch for a special 40th birthday.
Sizzling hot celebrations! Steven Saunders FMCGB The Little Geranium La Cala de Mijas & Marbella www.thelittlegeranium.com
WE all reach stages of our lives celebrating special birthdays. My wife Michele and her friends have reached the 40 marker whilst most of my friends are coming up for 60. I remember that I wasn’t too bothered about reaching 40 or 50, but the thought of being 60 is quite depressing! I am still a few years away but my older brother Howard is having his 60th in August. He invited me to his celebrations, but August 3 is a Saturday and the party is at Stuart’s restaurant (my other brother) called The Riverside in Woodbridge, Suffolk, a fair drive from La Cala! A lot of my clients read this article each week and wouldn’t really appreciate it if I took a Saturday night off in peak season! The problem with having a busy restaurant is that I have to be here.
SPECIAL BIRTHDAY: Nicky at head of the table with Michele and friends. It’s not that I don’t like being here because I do and I run my little kitchen with passion, but sometimes it’s hard missing out on family celebrations. The Little Geranium really has turned into a special little place for celebrations. The other night I proved this to my team by stopping at each table to say congratulations. ALL the guests
said how did you know? Our tasting menus and chef’s surprise tasting menu are a real hit and our chauffeur service (free for tasting menu clients) is very popular attracting many celebrations, birthdays, anniversaries and small weddings, so every lunch and dinner has a real buzz to it, especially lovely now with the sunshine on the terrace.
When Michele’s friend Nicky was turning 40 she flew over to celebrate and we put on a tapas lunch menu for her. Nicky is a bit of a crazy blonde (Poco Loco we call it!). Michele was talking about our villa being constantly attacked by balls (golf balls) ‘OMG’ she cried ‘Bulls!!! I am definitely not wearing my red bikini!’ There are bulls in Spain but generally you don’t see them walking around the private pools in Mijas. So I walked over to her table and asked which was her favourite tapas dish. She instantly replied that she loved the spicy prawns. It’s a bit of a take on the Spanish pil pil but more refined. By that I mean that we use fresh giant prawns (not frozen ones) and make a sauce from local tomatoes, garlic, mild chilli, fresh ginger and some spices and yep it tastes great and comes up sizzling like the classic pil pil. You can hardly see the guests at the table from the steam when it arrives! Sometimes that’s a good thing! So here for Nicky’s 40th birthday is the recipe for the prawns, don’t worry next time you visit Nicky because we have had pest control in and the bulls are now not to be seen anywhere near our sun loungers!
Sizzling hot prawns in spicy tomato sauce TH IS i s a v e r y si m p l e d is h b u t ideal for a hot summer ’s day as you could cook the prawns on the barbecue keeping the sauce separate and then construct and serve when required.

‘A moment of wonder’ Nick Horne’s Morning Read Freelance correspondent, London, England
“THE external design is minimal; monolithic even, and yet at the touch of a button this enigmatic black box is transformed into something quite unexpected.” explained Gavin Hartley, Head of Bespoke Design, Rolls Royce Motor Cars. “Inside is a perfectly appointed champagne set for four.” Gavin continued “When it opens with the secret button it comes alive, a sense of theatre; it’s rather like those old mechanical music boxes where engineers and designers conspired together to create a moment of wonder.” The Champagne Chest is clearly a Rolls Royce bespoke product. Meticulous attention to detail, remarkable hand-built craftsmanship as well as a certain swank characteristic of a Rolls Royce. The chassis is made from machined aluminium and carbon fibre wrapped in natural grain black leather and then embossed with the Spirit of Ecstasy, the flanks of the enigmatic box are of Tudor Oak materials found in the Rolls Royce Motor Car. The company would like to make it known that should a patron of the brand desire a bespoke colourway for their Champagne Box, ‘this would of course be possible.’
PURE LUXURY: A perfectly appointed Champagne Chest set for four. At the touch of a button a sense of theatre follows as the case unfolds to display a perfectly appointed Champagne set for four. The exterior lid transforms into a serving tray made of Tudor Oak wood with a laser cut stainless steel inlay. Four cotton napkins with finely embroidered ‘RR’ monograms hidden under the lacquered Tudor Oak table. Illuminated in the central bay are four hand-blown crystal flutes arranged to evoke the setup of a V12 engine. The glass of each is joined to a polished aluminium base each etched with the ‘RR’ monogram. The sides of the chest deploy, revealing two
hammocks of ‘Hotspur Red’ Rolls Royce leather to cradle either your preferred champagne, caviar or canapes. Thermal Champagne coolers made from black anodised aluminium and carbon fibre bearing the ‘RR’ emblem will ensure the champagne is maintained at the optimal temperature. Thoughtfully Rolls Royce have made a caviar configuration possible. Two thermal caissons each accommodating a 30g tin are complemented by two blini caissons as well as two delightful Mother of Pearl spoons with anodised aluminium handles which are housed at the top of the hammock; designed so as not to impair the delicate
flavour of caviar. Meanwhile, Rolls Royce Bespoke offer a yet further arrangement; three porcelain bowls may be concealed in a matching thermal capsule should you wish to present your guests with an alternative accompaniment to Champagne. Gavin Hartley confirmed that Rolls Royce has ‘an absolute obsession to create extremely rare products which captivate and entertain,’ and that is certainly the case with the Champage Chest, available to the discerning, with prices starting from just £37,000.

For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive. We desperately need items to sell on our market stall to help raise funds and are happy to come and collect. So if you are having a clear-out, please contact us on 605 227 155.

Valencia take CL spot has been a bad season. We can’t forget it; we have to have it very present in the future so it can help us improve.” Barcelona were held to a 2-2 draw when they travelled to Eibar, with Lionel Messi scor i ng bot h t hei r goals. They now take on Valen-

Mijas Golf - Los Olivos and Los Lagos CostaLessGolf Weekly News with
Ron Garrood MIJAS GOLF is one of the most commercial golf resorts on the Costa del Sol, with two walkable courses; Los Olivos and Los Lagos. Los Olivos opened in 1984 and was refurbished by Cabell Robinson during the season 2000 - 2001, following Trent Jones’ original design concept. It is most notable for the multitude of trees, with fewer water hazards; this 18hole course is nevertheless very challenging. The greens are smaller, undulating and well-defended by bunkers, and the strategic narrow tree-lined fairways and elevated green demand accuracy and skill, and a round of golf for two players
CHALLENGE: The course demands accuracy and skill. including shared buggy from now until September 22 is only €110. Los Lagos Golf is the longest of the two courses; with 6,536 metres it was totally refurbished in 2012 and has kept the original design. Los Lagos is a course with soft slopes, wide fairways and few forest trees obstacles, but defended by many bunkers and not less than nine lakes, from which the course gets its name.
You will enjoy the stunning views of the mountains above Mijas Pueblo and be received by the warm and friendly staff at Mijas Golf. It’s a great day out and during low season the offer for two players including shared buggy from now valid until September 22 is only €124.

A family affair IT wasn’t just double glory for Spain at the French MotoGP - it was a twin triumph for the Marquez family. Defending world champion Marc Marquez swept to victory in the main event while his younger brother Alex took the Moto2 race. Not only was it the elder Marquez’s 47th top level Grand Prix win and third of the season, but it was also a landmark occasion for Honda as it was the team’s 300th elite level win. He finished in front of Italian pair Andrea Dovizioso and Danilo Petrucci of Ducati. Marquez had started on pole and ended up winning by nearly two seconds as he extended his championship lead over Dovizioso to eight points. He now stands on 95 points. In third place is another Spaniard, Alex Rins who is 20 points off top spot after a disappointing 10th place on his Suzuki at Le Mans. Italian legend Valentino Rossi of Yamaha is fourth on 72 points after taking fifth place in the latest race. Alex Marquez won the Moto2 race ahead of fellow Spaniards Jorge Navarro and Augusto Fernandez. It was the 23-year-old’s fourth career win and first since 2017. “I’m happy to win but even happier be-

By Dilip Kuner IN a hugely disappointing weekend for the Spanish motor racing legend, Fernando Alonso’s dream of an Indianapolis 500 victory was shattered when he failed to qualify by just 0.019mph. He was fourth fastest out of six drivers who were competing for the final three places on the grid via a fourlap speed test. He managed a 227.353mph average, which ultimately was not quite good enough with American Kyle Kaiser squeezing him out on the last run of ‘bump day.’ Earlier, Alonso had finished 31st in qualifying, with the top 30 making the grid. Alonso had left F1 - in which he was twice champion - with the declared intention of winning the Indi-
anapolis 500 as part of his campaign to win the ‘triple crown.’ It is an unofficial title which involves winning three of motorsports’ most prestigious events, the Indianapolis 500, the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Monaco Grand Prix. Only one driver in history has managed the feat - the UK’s Graham Hill. Alonso has two of the titles in the bag, with him claiming the Le Mans trophy alongside Toyota teammates, Kazuki Nakajima and Sébastien Buemi last year. His win at Monaco came in 2007. Speaking on social media after failing in Indianapolis he said: ‘A difficult week, no doubts,’ adding: ‘We tried our best, even today with a completely different set up and approach, four laps flat

Alonso misses out DREAM DASHED: Alonso failed to qualify. on the throttle but we were not fast enough. It’s never easy to drive around here at 227mph+, and want more speed... We tried our best and we’ve been brave at times, but there were people doing better job than us. ‘Success or disappointments only come if you accept big challenges. We accepted. Thanks to the massive support always here at the speedway and everyone at home.” This was the second time the 37-year-old has made an
appearance at the 2.5-mile track nicknamed ‘The Brickyard.’ In 2017 he led for 27 laps after qualifying fifth in a McLaren branded car for the Mario Andretti team. An engine failure put paid to his challenge in the closing laps. This year McLaren decided to set up their own team rather than piggyback on the highly succesful Andretti organisation, but the result did not go their way. A series of problems in practice, including a highspeed crash, left Alonso and McLaren struggling to catch up in the weekend qualifying. The other two drivers to make it on to the grid on ‘bump day’ were Canadian James Hinchcliffe and American Sage Karam. The race, over 200 laps, is on Sunday at 7.30pm.
