FREED: The women were forced to work as prostitutes.

By Joe Gerrard NATIONAL POLICE officers have freed eight women who worked at a Marbella brothel following an investigation which also saw 21 people arrested. Officers said the women were made to work in a venue that was fitted with a bar and also sold drugs to customers. Some of the women were forced into sex work there. Others were hired for work in what

they thought was a massage parlour, but later discovered it was a brothel. The gang which run the bar threatened the women with fines and in other ways to stop

them from leaving. Workers were forced to work what police said were ‘exhausting days,’ with the venue kept open 24 hours a day.

Women ‘exploited’ CREDIT: National Police

From Front page » NATIONAL POLICE officers launched their investigation after they were tipped off about the brothel on an official helpline. Investigators later located the brothel and found women there were being sexually exploited. General worker exploitation was also found to be taking place due to the long working hours. Those running the venue, set up in a villa in Marbella, also supplied drugs including cocaine and MDMA to clients.

RAID: Police seized drugs and weapons in the probe. The gang recruited women from Spain to work in the brothel.

Officers said the suspected leaders of the gang which ran

the brothel were Portuguese. Six of those suspected of being leading members were arrested first followed by 15 more lower-level workers. Police seized 55 grams of MDMA, five grams of cocaine, 17 bags of hashish, 190 grams of Kamagra, €1,000 in cash, four fake €100 notes, weapons and documents. Three other houses were also searched. Their assets in both Spain and Portugal have since been frozen as the case continues.

Death threat trial Violence funds MALAGA’S Provincial Court has jailed a defendant for three years after finding him guilty of threatening to stab a man to death following an argument over the former’s girlfriend. The court’s Third Section also jailed the defendant’s brother for two years for making threats and for illegally possessing a shotgun. The court heard the main defendant lunged towards the victim with a large knife in Antequera in 2014. It happened the day after the former accused the latter of having an affair with his girlfriend. Both defendants confessed as part of a plea bargain deal.

THE Junta de Andalucia has said it will invest around €344,000 to hire 15 new staff members to help process gender violence cases in Malaga Province courts. Antequera, Archidona, Coin, Fuengirola, Marbella, Ronda and Torremoli-

nos are among the towns set to benefit from the funding. The new workers are being hired to speed case processing. They are set to work until the end of this year, but could be kept on depending on their progress.

What a beauty THIS village in northern Spain has been named as one of the most beautiful in the country and one of the best places to visit this summer. Lastres (Llastres in Asturian), in Asturias on Spain’s northern Atlantic coast, is a fishing village and belongs to the Colunga urban area. It and the village of Tazones, also in Asturias, were both highlighted by the Association of the Most Beautiful Villages in Spain as two places that travellers should visit this year. Both villages also featured in a

Conde Nast Traveller article on escaping the summer Spanish heat without leaving the country. The magazine said Lastres was a calm place. Its performing arts offering and Las Tres Noches de Lastres festival, which takes place on the first weekend of August, were also highlighted as reasons to visit. Lastres won the Princess of Asturias Foundation award for Exemplary Town of Asturias in 2010. The region’s Tourist Board said the town was famous for its fishing industry, particular-

ly whaling, and for its seafood offering as a result. “Lastres is one of the most photographed and filmed places in all of Austrias, and that charm and its atmosphere of Cantabrian tranquillity is absolutely captivating,” the Tourist Board said. The town is home to the 18th century Church of Santa Maria de Sabada which is a national Site of Cultural Interest. The Spanish comedy drama series Doctor Mateo was filmed in the village.

Council talks

Jail appeal MALAGA City’s 14th Criminal Court has ruled against an appeal from the former boss of a Torremolinos animal shelter to get a prison sentence handed down over deaths there suspended. The court ruled the sentence for the woman, who ran Torremolinos’ Parque Animal shelter, could not be suspended on health grounds. Judges there ruled her medical conditions would not put her at risk while serving her three-year and nine-month sentence. The woman’s defence lawyers previously told the court her sentence should be suspended under Article 80 of Spain’s Criminal Code which allows ill prisoners’ sentences to be reviewed. The court ruled medication would help the women with an ear condition. It also refused to suspend the sentence on mental health grounds. It comes after the woman was jailed in 2017 over the deaths of multiple cats and dogs at the shelter from 2008 to 2010.

POLITICAL parties across the Costa del Sol are beginning to form pacts in local authorities following local elections held last month. The left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) has agreed to join with the leftist Izquierda Unida (IU) to govern in Benalmadena. Acting mayor Victor Navas said the coalition would provide an administration of ‘progress’ for the town that would continue to modernise it. PSOE is seeking to take control of Mijas Town Hall and install Josele Gonzelez as mayor with the support of the centrist Ciudadanos. A deal is yet to be reached after PSOE came second to the PP in May. The path to the control of Torremolinos Council remains unclear, with both PSOE and the conservative Partido Popular (PP) courting the support of Ciudadanos. The PP and Ciudadanos look set to govern Malaga City. Councils have until this Saturday to form administrations.

MORE than four in five women aged between 55 and 64 with higher levels of education regularly recycle, besting men of the same profile according to a new survey. Coinciding with the World Environmental Day, the Social Barometer of IPSOS published a report stating Spanish women are more aware of the importance of recycling than men. The equivalent figure for men of the same background was 78 per cent. IPSOS said in a report on the survey that Spanish people are increasingly moving to-

wards sustainable living. “The Spanish are increasingly aware of the challenges associated with environment protection,” IPSOS said. IPSOS surveyed people on their recycling habits and their attitudes to environmental issues. It found Spanish people aged between 18 and 24 were more alarmed about climate change than other age groups. In addition, 94 per cent believe that recycling is important, although one in four are reluctant as it is ‘inconvenient.’

SPANISH television channel Atresmedia has launched the first trailer of ‘La Valla,’ a series that depicts the capital in a fascist totalitarian light. The series shows Spain’s capital city in 2045, predicting a dystopian landscape where the populous lives in isolated blocks, with the rich and poor separated by walls and fences.

Epidemics, lack of raw materials and economic crisis are all focal points to the narrative with the fascist politics taking over from democracies throughout the country. Sonia Martinez, director of fiction at Atresmedia says, “This is a series located in the very near future in which society has suffered an invo-

lution: less technology, less freedom, more fear… in this context, a great story starring a family that struggles to survive and stay together, all with great doses of action, suspense and emotion.” La Valla, starring Olivia Molina, Unax Ugalde and Angela Molina, will make its premiere on Spanish terrestrial TV channel Antena 3.

BREXIT BRIEF Election results LABOUR has narrowly held Peterborough following a by-election last Thursday which saw the pro-leave Brexit Party push the Conservatives into third place. Labour’s candidate Lisa Forbes won the seat with a total of 10,484 votes, 683 ahead of the Brexit Party’s Mike Greene. The Conservatives came third with 21.4 per cent of the vote and the Liberal Democrats fourth with 12.3 per cent. Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said the Conservative government’s ‘disastrous’ handling of Brexit and austerity programme had seen their support evaporate in the town. Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage said the result showed British politics had ‘fundamentally changed’ despite not claiming victory. Farage’s party had been tipped to snatch the seat from Labour, with voters there backing leave by 61 per cent in the 2016 referendum. Despite not winning, both Labour and the Conservatives suffered due in part to their respective stances on Brexit, losing 17.2 and 25.5 per cent of their previous support respectively. The Liberal Democrats, the main outwardly remain party, saw its vote share increase by 8.9 per cent. It shows that while Labour was able to win despite its Brexit infighting, parties that took a firm stance on Brexit one way or another were rewarded.

Child poverty call Gardai and Guardia collaboration AS part of the 175th anniversary of the Guardia Civil, two members of the Irish police force have been awarded ‘La Cruz de la Orden del Merito de la Guardia,’ the Cross of Merit of Order of the Guardia Civil. Detective Superintendent Seamus Boland of the Drugs and Organised Crime Bureau and a liaison officer, who cannot be named for operational reasons, have been celebrated for their work fighting Irish crime gangs who were operating in Spain. This included providing assistance which led to the con-

viction of James Quinn, aged 35, at a court in Malaga, the getaway driver in the murder of Gary Hutch in 2015. Quinn was also convicted of possession of illegal weapons. The ceremony took place at the Guardia Civil Headquarters in Mallorca and amongst those present were the Assistant Commissioner of An Garda Síocháná, John O’Driscoll, who praised the ongoing collaboration between the two police forces relating to investigations associated with organised crime, with an Irish connection.

‘HIGH RATE’: The EU said Spain should spend more on tackling child poverty. THE EU has called on Spain to improve its support for low-income families to tackle the ‘high rate’ of child poverty. The European Commission drew up a report on the situation facing disadvantaged Spanish families which recommended investing in the welfare system and social housing to tackle the issue. The Report on Spain found that the child poverty rate remained very high in Spain although it has fallen in recent years. It also stated that Spanish spending on the welfare system remains lower than oth-

er EU member states. The number of Spanish children dropping out of school early is also ‘excessively high,’ the report found. ‘Efforts to reform the education system have stalled. Companies say they have trouble finding people with the necessary skills especially in regard to information technology and communications,’ the report stated. T h e C h i l d r e n ’s P l a t f o r m N G O s a i d i t welcomed the report and its recommendations, which also included creating a High Commissioner for fighting child poverty.

School denounced for autism comments FOUR teachers from a school in Sevilla have been denounced after reportedly being recorded ridiculing a girl with autism in their class. The seven-year-old girl, who has not been named, suffers from Pervasive Developmental Disorder with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Specific Language Disorder

(SLE) and epilepsy. Her parents began to notice strange behaviour in the girl after she had two seizures in a short time and began displaying signs of self-harm. These behaviours allegedly intensified during the school week then eased during weekends. When questioned, the teachers denied noticing any unusual

behaviour but, unconvinced, the parents sent the girl to class with a tape recorder in her bag. In the six hours of recording phrases such as ‘the girl’s brain is broken,’ ‘she has already turned upside down,’ ‘wash your hands, you filthy girl, I’m watching you play with snot’ or ‘in the asylum there was this profile in adults.’

THE WEEK IN POLITICS

Crunch time By Joe Gerrard SPAIN’S acting prime minister has held talks to try and form a government this week, with potential coalition partners naming their price for their support. Pedro Sanchez met with the leader of the leftist Podemos Pablo Iglesias on Tuesday. The two previously allied to get legislation through the Congress of Deputies prior to April’s snap general election. Initial talks held between the two parties before local, regional and European elections in May seemed to go smoothly, with sources from both saying their past working relationship created trust. But a PSOE-Podemos pact is not straightforward for either side to achieve. Sanchez and other senior PSOE figures previously said they want to govern along while other parties join in a confidence and supply arrangement, voting with the government where necessary. Iglesias is however pushing for a full coalition government with Podemos deputies serving as ministers. Iglesias told Sanchez on Tuesday that he wanted the Labour brief which would give his party control over work laws and the welfare system. His party also wants a say in environmental, tax, public investment and gender equality policy-making, opening up more ministries for their control. This would force Sanchez to dispense with key PSOE figures in his Council of Ministers. PSOE and Podemos also do not have the numbers between them to govern in the Congress of Deputies, meaning they would have to reach out to smaller, regional groups. But their support will not come cheap. The Partido Regionalista de Cantabria (PRC), which has one member of the Congress, has already demanded €1.1

TALKS: Sanchez (right) met with Iglesias (left) on Tuesday.

Far-right worries THE centrist Ciudadanos’ candidate for mayor of Barcelona said he is concerned about his party’s overtures to the far-right as talks on pacts to govern local and regional authorities continue. Manuel Valls said meetings between Ciudadanos officials and those from the far-right Vox risked normalising an ‘extreme’ party. He has previously spoken out about his party’s decision to enter into a coalition deal with the conservative Partido Popular (PP) in Andalucia which is backed by Vox. Vall’s comments have exposed a fissure in a party which pitches itself as progressive and liberal. Ciudadanos leader Albert Rivera has previously refused to pigeon hole it as either left or right. But his refusal to work with the left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) and his pivots from the centre to the right suggest the party is retreating from Spanish politics’ middle ground. Elsewhere, Ciudadanos candidate for head of the Madrid Region Ignacio Aguado has also suggested he could break ranks and join with PSOE to govern there. He also ruled out working with ‘populists and nationalists’ a thinly-veiled reference to Vox. Such divisions could come to hamstring a once insurgent force in the Spanish centre.

Poll tracker: Partido Socialista (PSOE): 33.6 per cent, 160 seats Partido Popular (PP): 15.4 per cent, 72 seats Ciudadanos: 15.1 per cent, 43 seats Unidos Podemos: 13.3 per cent, 30 seats Result: PSOE largest party, no overall control billion in investment for the region for their backing of the government. If Sanchez feels he cannot spare the money or would prefer to deal with one other party then the centrist Ciudadanos also remains a potential partner. The maths is on the side of PSOE and of Albert Rivera’s party in this scenario. Their combined seats would get them four seats clear of the 176 majority figure.

But the pact is fraught with wider political considerations. Although it is favoured by big business and other elements of the Spanish establishment, entering into a coalition could dampen Rivera’s efforts to make Ciudadanos Spain’s leading opposition party.

HOSPITALISED: Three children were taken to hospital after a sickness outbreak at a fivestar all-inclusive holiday.

Children hospitalised on family holiday By Alana Schuurman THREE British children from two families have been taken to hospital after catching a suspected sickness bug in a fivestar Menorca resort. Louise Hunter, 36, from St Helens, Merseyside woke up

vomiting in her sleep to then find her daughters suffering from diarrhoea. She claimed both children were taken to the local hospital and given medication during their €2,241 allinclusive holiday. Jade Fullbrook, 33, from Dorset said she and her 10-

year-old were left with acute gastroenteritis a few days later. She said: “the sickness bug completely ruined our holiday.” A TUI UK spokesperson said: “We are very sorry to hear of the customers’ experiences on their holiday.” Both families are now seeking compensation.

Footballer’s home targeted POLICE are looking for two armed robbers who broke into Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata’s La Moraleja home late at night. Morata was away, playing in Spain’s Euro 2020 qualifier against the Faroe Islands, and the intruders would have known that his wife, Alice Campello, their twin sons Alessandro and Leonardo and the nanny were alone. Neither the footballer, currently on loan at

Atletico de Madrid, nor his partner made any official comment, but police sources quoted in the Spanish media revealed that nobody in the house was harmed during the robbery although the hooded intruders were both armed. The burglars are believed to have entered the footballer’s home in the upmarket Madrid suburb via an upstairs window and took ‘several items’ of value including watches.

Las Loras geopark, in Burgos Province, has been declared a World Heritage site following a decision from the UN’s culture agency. An event was held in the town of Sedano to mark the awarding of the status. Las Loras covers an area of more than 95,000 hectares. The Covalagua springs, Las Tuerces rock formations, Horadada Canyon and the Monte Bernorio archaeological site are among its attractions.

BIG JOB: Police had to smash the rocks by hand.

POLICE had to smash up nearly 19 tonnes of rock with sledge hammers to find 785 packages of cocaine which had been disguised as stone. Officers had learned that a shipment of 188,000 kilos of

stone was being used to smuggle the drug into Spain. The cocaine had been mixed with a rocky mixture which, when set, made it indistinguishable from the stones in the shipment. So

National Police officers had no option but to roll their sleeves up, grab sledgehammers and do some serious hard labour to find the drugs packages - each one of which held more than a kilo of co-

caine. Online calls for ‘prisoners to be brought in to do the job’ were ignored. Eleven people - all Colombians and Venezuelans - were arrested in the operation in Humanes de Madrid.

The real cost of corruption AROUND €60 billion is estimated to be lost to corruption in Spain every year, according to the latest figures from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). IMF figures showed the amount lost to corruption is equivalent to around 4.5 per cent of Spanish economic out-

put (G ros s Dom est i c Pr oduct , GDP). The figures follow the appearance of a University of Boston corruption expert at Barcelona’s Institute of Economics this week. He said corruption is very difficult to measure and added IMF estimates

could be underestimating the costs as they do not take into account social costs and other factors. It comes as a recent study from the BBVA Foundation found the Spanish economy could grow by up to 1 per cent more each year if corruption is properly tackled.

Expulsion order OFFICERS of the Badajoz Local Police working on a separate tip off found a worker who currently has an expulsion order on him from the National Police. The officers were alerted to the establishment after an emergency health and hygiene inspection was carried out at the property. The 112 call was made after workers were observed moving large parcels of meat products from the boot of an unrefrigerated vehicle directly inside. On interview, the three 25kg parcels were determined to be for human consumption and were quickly seized, with an investigation now underway to determine the source of the produce. Within minutes a health and hygiene representative was on the scene and carried out a full inspection of the property, it was during this that the worker was identified to the police. The man in question, working as a waiter, was detained by Local Police and transferred to the National Police station, and an investigation is now underway.

The Canary Islands are the last bastion in Spain for the bottom-dwelling sharks, which are the second most endangered group of shark species in the world. Although there was already an EU ban on fishing them in place, the new classification makes it illegal in Spain not only to kill them, but also to annoy them, catch them or damage their natural habitat. Likewise, it will not be possible to possess or transport specimens whether dead or alive. A total of 27 species of fauna and flora were added to the lists including seven different species of coral.

“Beginning of the end” for house woes “AT last!” was the AUAN housing association’s reaction to the Andalucia government’s announcement on measures dealing with the irregular property problem. AUAN President Maura Hillen and the Almanzora Valley-based association’s spokesman Gerardo Vazquez were in the Andalucia parliament last week to hear Junta Development and Territorial Planning Minister Marifran Carazo describe proposals to address the situation of the region’s estimated 300,000 properties which fail to comply with current planning regulations. The measures are designed, AUAN said, to bring relief to homeowners and minimise environmental damage while a fundamental rewrite of the Planning Law (LOUA), is underway. Having reviewed existing legislation, the first step, the regional minister explained, would be the issue of a clarifying instruction to allow officials to expand the granting of an AFO certificate (a form of legal recognition) to more irregular homes. The instruction was signed on May 31 and is now in force. Secondly, the minister announced the government was planning to amend specific articles of the existing

CONSENSUS: Andalucia Development and Territorial Planning Minister Marifran Carazo (centre) with senior department officials, AUAN members and Ciudadanos’ Andalucia Parliament spokesperson Juan de Dios Sanchez (third left). planning law via a decree to further expand access to AFOs to homeowners awaiting legalisation via a town plan so they too can access basic services and register their houses while waiting for a town plan to be approved and executed.

The Junta’s Council of Ministers would approve the decree before the end of the current parliamentary session in August, Carazo stated. In addition, she explained, the Andalucia government proposes dealing with the “more complex” problem of

irregular housing estates, or “asentamientos,” without having to wait for the “lengthy process” of the approval and execution of a town plan (PGOU). This would be achieved through the introduction of ‘planes especiales,’ or

special plans, which function independently of the town plan and establish solutions tailored to each estate. The minister emphasised the costs of these plans would be met by the property owners. AUAN said it understood a special plan would be applied if it is deemed impractical to legalise an irregular estate due to its physical characteristics or distance from existing urban centres. Even more important than what the minister announced, according to Gerardo Vazquez, was the “clear and convincing willingness” to resolve the irregular houses problem. Maura Hillen echoed Vazquez’s optimism on political will. “Witnessing the minister’s statement to parliament and the response of the various political parties it is clear that we now have consensus to put an end to this problem once and for all. And we have a government that is prepared to listen to the associations and take the necessary realistic and practical steps,” the AUAN President affirmed. “This is not the end of the road, but I believe it is the beginning of the end.”

Sad day for dying village

TRAGIC: Javier García was crushed by his tractor.

By Dilip Kuner THE death of a young man is always a tragedy. But in the case of 25-yearold Javier García it is a double tragedy, as he was the last young man left who was actually willing to live and work in the Asturian municipality of Yernes y Tameza. The municipality is dying. It has the lowest birth rate in

Spain - the last child to be born there was 10 years ago. And he and his family had moved away. Spanish newspaper El Mundo reports that García, the only man under the age of 50 who worked in the township, drove his tractor along the steep road that connects the two biggest villages of the municipality, Yernes and Villabre. For reasons unknown the tractor, towing a heavy load of

tiles, overturned and crushed him. The emergency medical helicopter, the only possible assistance in the isolated mountainous region, was 70 kilometres away, in Gozon, rescuing a woman who had been trapped on a beach. Mayor Manuel Tamargo and several neighbours tried to help García as they waited for the helicopter. But it was in vain. García died at the scene.

Police car mounted cameras ACROSS Spain the National Police is upgrading its fleet to improve efficiency. Valencia, Zaragoza, Sevilla, Malaga, Palma de Mallorca and Vigo already have vehicles

equipped with the new technology. The new cameras will be mounted in eco-friendly patrol cars to help with the environment. Each car will have three cameras which

can read 400 number plates a minute, whilst the data collected is automatically checked and processed to identify false plates or stolen vehicles.

Spain under cyber-attack ACCORDING to a report from the National Centre for Infrastructure Protection and Cybersecurity (CNPIC), cyberattacks in Spain have jumped by 600 per cent in the past four years. In 2014, the centre received reports of 18,000 attacks and by 2018 this had increased to more than 110,000, so the real figure will be much higher as not every attack is reported. Companies and individuals are at threat and it would appear that the bulk of the attacks come from international criminal consortiums who try to block people’s computers using ‘malware’ and then demand a ransom to remove the problem. It is understood however that a significant amount of attacks were also undertaken by hackers backed by foreign governments or their intelligence services.

HACKING: Is a major problem.

Other technology which will accompany this new advancement will be dash fingerprint readers connected to a database for easy identification and extra cameras to

record footage of 30 days.It is thought that by 2020, 162 of these police vehicles will be on the road making up around 10 per cent of the whole fleet.

A Spanish Maritime Rescue (Salvamento Maritimo) helicopter was scrambled when the Loa Zour sent out a call for help at 8.30pm last Thursday during an Orange Alert for Storm Miguel which had swept past the Atlantic coast of

Portugal and Spain and up the English Channel. The yacht was about 85 nautical miles northwest of A Coruña when the incident occurred. The seas were too rough to attempt a rescue direct from the boat, which was bobbing and swirling dangerously, so the crew had to leap into the sea one by one to be rescued

by the helicopter. Maritime Rescue said winds of 60 knots (120kph) and waves from four to six metres made the task ‘very complicated.’ The four Irish and one Croatian crew members were winched to safety and transferred to Alvedro in northern Spain in good condition. The yacht is thought to be out of Kinsale in Cork.

It is the second robbery the man from Encinacorba (Zaragoza) has suffered in a few months, although police do not think it is the same assailants due to the extreme violence that was used in the

latest robbery. Guardia Civil say the victim, named only as Antonio, suffered bruising to the eyes caused by several punches. The vicious assault only stopped when he played possum. His assailants left the scene, leaving him tied up.

It then took him three hours to free himself, during which he hurt his left hand as the rope pulled the skin off, leaving him needing 18 stiches. Investigators say there was no sign of a forced entry, leading them to believe the robbers had obtained a copy of the key.

ESSENTIALS: Rich in important fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals and fibre.

How to burn fat! THIS is a topic that has been very popular in recent years, prompting thousands of complicated theories and strategies. But how best to get around the sea of information. In my practice as a coach and nutritionist, I have tried almost all strategies. Today I will share with you my favourite four rules that work for everyone. 1. Move more and exercise. Walking in nature, swimming or dancing is good, but if we are already overweight, the most effective way to come back to normal weight is weight training and cardio. 2. Drink water! Average 0.5 litre of water per 10kg of weight, which means for an 80kg man about four litres. It is extremely important if we want our bodies to function properly. 3. Qualitative rest and sleep. It is desirable to sleep at least seven hours during the night to be physically and mentally healthy. 4. Stop eating processed food and start eating real food which comes from nature. First of all, fruits and vegetables will not be listed because all of them are very healthy. It is good to have seasonal and consume them raw or steamed. Better to eat more vegetables than sweet fruits which have extra calories. Secondly, it is good to con-

sume raw pumpkin seeds, cashew nuts, almonds and linseed. Rich in important fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals and fibre. Other sources of

useful fat are avocados and uncooked olive oil. We also need brown rice, quinoa, oatmeal, lentils and chickpea, and of course ani-

Ins and outs of the Padron

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.

IN simple words, the padron is a local certificate that you are given when you register at your town hall. In Spanish it is called ‘certificado de empadronamiento,’ and helps compile a list of those people who live in a municipality. The padron is used by the government and local authorities to keep a ‘head count’ on how many people live in the area, and as such receive financial assistance in the form of subsidies and grants from provincial, regional and central authorities for the provision of services. Anyone who lives for more than six months in Spain is required to register on the padron. However, the certificate itself only lasts for a limited period of time, and must be renewed. A handy website is: www.spanishsolutions.net/of ficial-documents-in-spain/padron To register on the padron you need: Your passport, Your NIE or residence certificate, The deeds to your house or a copy of your rental agreement, A recent utility bill in your name. To add someone onto your padron, as it must contain all occupants, you will need: • Title deeds of the property, • The passports of both parties, and copies, • A utility bill, • Both certificates of residence, • Rental agreement (if renting and not residing with owner). Since you need the padron certificate to become a Spanish resident, but you cannot give the padron office your residency until you apply for it, the padron offices usually give a set period to return and present your Spanish residency. In the Alicante Province, for example, it’s three months. To find out more, visit: www.gov.uk/guidance-requirements-in-spain. Padron holders have the right to vote in local elections. Residents who can demonstrate a specified time on the padron, can also receive benefits or a cash grant when getting married to another resident, or could qualify for financial assistance for any children born in Spain. The traffic department of Spain, require a padron to register a car in your own name, to import a car from another country, to qualify for a Spanish driver’s licence, and in some cases to purchase mobile phones or electrical goods. This information is for guidance only, and should not be taken as legal advice. If in any doubt, seek professional help.

Regulator to take on cartels

EU ends Spanish debt procedure

THE head of Spain’s market watchdog has said the fight against cartels in the public works contract bidding process remains a top priority. National Commission of Markets and Competition (CNMC) President Jose Maria Marin Quemada said the watchdog regularly saw companies banding together in Temporary Company Unions (UTEs) for bids. While there is no problem with UTEs in general, their use in contract bidding distort markets and undermine competition, the president added. Marin Quemada has proposed raising the €60,000 fine limit to tackle the issue.

THE European Commission (EC) has formerly requested the end of the excessive debt procedure brought against Spain in 2009 but said reduction efforts should continue. The EC’s request is pending improvement from the European Council of member states. “Once the Council adopts this decision, all procedures for excess deficits that date from the eurozone crisis will be closed,” the EC said. The decision came after Spain’s public spending deficit stood at 2.5 per cent of economic output (Gross Domestic Product, GDP) last year. It

By Joe Gerrard was 11 per cent of GDP when Spain entered the procedure. Spanish Economy Minister Nadia Calviño said Madrid was satisfied with the EC’s decision and pledged to cut the deficit to 2 per cent of GDP by the end of 2019. The EC said there was a risk of Spain ‘significantly’ deviating from its spending targets this year and in 2020. The warning comes as the left-leaning Parido Socialista (PSOE) pledged to hike taxes and boost spending if it can re-enter government following

April’s snap general election. The EC’s announcement follows comments from its Economic Commissioner Pierre Moscovici who said about a month ago it would request the shelving of the procedure. Spain was one of 24 member states subject to the procedure in 2011 when the eurozone debt crisis was at its height. The excessive deficit procedure forms part of the EU’s Stability and Growth Pact. It states budget deficits must not exceed 3 per cent of GDP and overall public debt should not exceed 60 per cent of GDP.

Iberdrola green energy push ENERGY company Iberdrola is planning to invest more than €300 million in a new 590-megawatt solar plant in Extremadura which is set to be the biggest in Europe. The firm’s plan, which would see the 1,300-hectare site enter service in 2022 and employ about 1,000 staff, comes as part of moves towards generating more power from renewable sources. Iberdrola has also made a deal with financial company Macquarie’s Green Investment Group subsidiary to bid for a 750-megawatt offshore wind farm near the Netherlands.

EC lodges foreign asset case THE European Commission (EC) has lodged legal proceedings against Spain in the European Court of Justice (EJC) over laws requiring residents to declare assets in other EU member states. The EC said the Model 720 law, which came into force in 2012, hands down ‘disproportionate and discriminatory’ penalties to non-compliant individuals and companies.

The rules were brought in by the previous conservative Partido Popular (PP) government in a bid to curb tax fraud. The requirement also discourages residents and companies investing elsewhere in the single market, violating the freedom of movement for capital which is one of the EU’s four founding freedoms.

Mango China growth deal S PA N I S H f a s h i o n s t o r e chain Mango has struck an agreement with Chinese online retailer Vip.com to sell its goods and open 15 more shops i n t h e c o u n t r y, b r i n g i n g the total to 45.

Wage claims THE CCOO trade union has claimed that some Spanish companies are trying to get around complying with the increase in the minimum wage to €900 a month, either by cutting staff hours or refusing to introduce the new rate.

Bond yield at new low THE yield on 10-year bonds issued by the Spanish Treasury fell to about 0.6 per cent last week, the lowest level in a decade according to market data. Bonds were trading on markets at 0.6 per cent on Thursday. It touched 0.599 per cent at one point, the lowest level for 10-year bonds in history. The fall in the yield came as the European Commission (EC) announced it would close its excessive debt procedure for Spain. The EC placed Spain in the mechanism in 2009 following the outbreak of the financial crisis the previous year. The low yields indicate investors are now more confident that Spain can meet its debt obligations. That confidence comes as the EC said there was a risk Spain could deviate ‘significantly’ from its debt targets this year and in 2020. Yields on five-year bonds issued last week went negative on the markets, reaching -0.09 per cent. The Treasury offered investors a marginal interest rate of 0.033 per cent.

THE CEO of CaixaBank has said the banking sector has made mistakes in recent years after a recent survey found almost 70 per cent of Spanish people viewed it negatively. Gonzalo Gortazar said the reputation of banks among Spanish customers put the sustainability of the industry at risk. It comes as almost 70 per cent of respondents to LLYC’s Reputational Relevance report said they viewed banks as ‘lousy’ or ‘bad.’ Consumers said they felt banks lacked ‘social sensitivity.’ Gortazar said the sector had a bad reputation and said banks should stop complaining and instead focus on addressing the problem. “We need to make sure that the population perceives a change in the industry,” the CaixaBank CEO told an insurance sector meeting.

Boss Botin’s jobs call SANTANDER president Ana Botin has said the Spanish economy needs to redistribute wealth effectively ahead of the expected replacing of between 40 and 50 per cent of current jobs with machines, adding the country risks being ‘left behind.’

CCOO ‘unease’

BAD REPUTATION: Gortazar (inset) said banks needed to prove to customers they are changing. taxpayers out of pocket, Gortazar added. “There were practices that should not have taken places. Banking is an industry in which many mistakes have been made,” the CEO said. Gortazar added traditional banks such as his were the ones who typically faced the

biggest reputational problems. Many were investigated in the aftermath of the crisis and criminal proceedings were launched in some cases. A solution to the problem of negative consumer attitudes will not be easy to find, the CEO said.

He added profitability was another big challenge facing banks, saying companies would have to be ‘very disciplined’ going forward. Gortazar cited CaixaBank’s recent agreement with unions to cut more than 2,000 jobs, saying it would free up more funds for investment.

THE head of CCOO trade union’s committee for the Euskaltel telecommunications company Javier del Blanco said he feels ‘total uneasiness’ towards the planned takeover of British rival Zegona due to concerns over whether it is motivated by making quick profits.

“The more you give the more you receive. You can have anything. That is the secret.”

The people behind the publication BUSINESS people and friends of EWN from across the Costas joined the team for an afternoon of socialising, music, drinks and tapas to mark EWN National Day. CEO Michel Euesden explained: “All day the team have worked and put their heart and soul into celebrating 20 years producing papers. Today is about the people involved. We all have a story and have a life, aside from what we do. We are not our job title, we are real people. “Seven years ago my life was different. Of all the charities that we continue to support, I was one of those people who received that support when I was ill. Never think you are alone.” Co-owner Steven added: “We want to thank everybody present and all of the team for their hard work. Some people have been here as long as us and it has been a wonderful journey.”

EWN team, frie celebrate succe “THIS girl is on fire… You can make yourself into anything you want to be, your life is about you!” This is the mantra and visionary advice CEO Michel Euesden, shared during a day of celebrations to mark EWN’s 20th anniversary year. Staff, advertisers and friends of the company gathered for EWN’s National Day at the Posidonia Restaurant in Puerto Banus, Marbella last week - incredible videos and photographs are still being shared all over social media. In thanking and motivating the complete EWN team from across six regions, Michel Euesden spoke about her illness, life experiences, beliefs and principles, all of which have helped her overcome challenges. On her recovery from her illness, she told the EWN team: “I got through that with the help of you guys. What people don’t tell you about serious illness is that you suffer from depression. But I decided to live.” She added: “Give thanks for the things you have. Be grateful.” Michel urged everybody to believe in their own abilities, to set and continually strive to achieve their goals, to realise their full potential and always be thankful. “You always feel better when you move and take action. The more you give the more you receive,” she said. Husband and EWN co-owner Steven Euesden also took to the stage to share his enviable wealth of sales knowledge in a combined drive to ensure EWN remains at the top of its game - the leading weekly, free Englishlanguage newspaper in Spain.

“You get what you ask for. You are not your mistakes forget them.”

At the heart of the community AFTER inspirational speeches from the Euesdens, moving talks from members of staff, lunch and live music, Costa celebrity DJ Maurice Boland paid tribute to EWN and the part it has played in the community over the last 20 years. “From the bottom of my heart, congratulations,” he said. “When I first met Michel and Steven there was something special about them and their ambition. “The very first charity event I did with comedian Max Bygraves, they were there supporting and from that moment on they have supported 100 per cent and helped me raise money for charity. “There are so many charities they have supported, as well as t h e c o m m u n i t y, they are amazing. “I would like to say a big thank you to EWN and Michel and Steven.”

LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT LOVE him or hate him. Laugh or lampoon him. I wish we had one of him. It’s Donald Trump I’m referring to. Personally I think his recent State visit was pretty successful. At least it managed to show up a few of our own so-called statesmen in their true colours. Not the least Jeremy Corbyn. This man is supposed to be a potential leader of the country - Ha! I wouldn’t trust him to run a London bus. We have the President of our greatest and strongest ally visiting, on what I considered a brilliantly selected occasion for our two countries, and this so-called contender for number 10, the leader of the opposition, who has condoned terrorist organisations and supports Communist regimes, refuses to break bread with the Queen of the realm and the leader of the free world - basically because he doesn’t like some of his policies! I mean how juvenile and utterly ridiculous can you get? Not only that, he chooses instead, to address a (much smaller than anticipated or reported) rabble of lefties, at a rally comprising mainly of followers epitomised by an overweight (ex) NHS worker, with a ring through her nose and purple hair, screaming ‘Nazi Scum’ into the face of an OAP who dares to display ‘Welcome Trump’ on his hat. Corbyn’s speech to these people (that includ-

thing other than actually getting a job! Future Prime Minister? I would make a better Prime Minister than this antiquated leftie. Vote for meee! Trump just about managed to retain his dignity when voicing his opinion of that other childish creep, London’s Mayor Khan, who he

described as a ‘stone cold loser.’ I thought this was pretty mild, considering he once again encouraged the raising of that ridiculous ‘blimp’ over London, which just about sums up the mentality of a man who doesn’t like Trump, purely because the American President doesn’t want his country overrun with benefit chasing Muslim or Mexican immigrants! As for Trump’s unfortunate boo boo, with his remark on the NHS. This was obviously a mistake in the heat of a Q and A session, from a man who comes from a country far away that is awash with the initials of whole conglomerations of different companies. NHS could have been the title of the Nuneaton Haricot Sowing organisation for all he knew. As soon as he realised the error, the following day he made it absolutely clear that there would be no meddling in the NHS whatsoever. No, I think Trump and his extremely sophisticated First Lady, made a very favourable impression on this visit. I just hope the antics of a few utterly childish members of our so-called leaders and their motley rag tag of supporters, didn’t give him the impression that the majority of the British people all follow the same lines of infantile persuasion.

“I thought my life was over when I stopped drinking - but it was just beginning…” ALMA is a 39-year-old single woman, a writer who is presently single and with no children, who tells us her amazing story of how drinking led to a life that became so unbearable she attempted suicide - but how she found Alcoholics Anonymous and has totally transformed her life. “There was little alcohol consumption in my family growing up, and no drug use. But there was rage and constant criticism from my mother. She suffered from untreated depression and anxiety. So aged 12, I started drinking as a means to cover up my fears and insecurities. It was the same pattern of blackouts, severe hangovers and remorse for my behaviour while drunk. For the same reasons, started at the same time, I also used prescribed and illegal drugs.

I also used other things to change the way I felt: relationships, sex, shopping, work and I was addicted to chaos. If I wasn’t creating my own, I got involved in other people’s. Everything was to distract me from the emotional anguish I felt. I got drunk and high every day, even during school time. I couldn’t even enjoy simple but valuable things such as time with family or friends because my mind was always on when my next drink or drug was going to be. That spiral downwards continued until I was about 24 - when I was facing three years in prison

for alcohol and drug-related crimes. I’d also had failed suicide attempts. I lied, cheated, betrayed friends, stole from family and society, put myself in dangerous situations and became a person I despised. My world was bleak and life felt without purpose. I was contemplating suicide again. Luckily I went to an addiction support centre in Ireland. There I was told about Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings. I was welcomed with open arms. The help was amazing. For two years I stayed sober and clean by going to AA & Nar-

cotics Anonymous meetings, and working the 12 Steps, a way to live a fantastic life free of drink and drugs. It’s not connected with any religion, but it is spiritual. What resonated for me was the saying I heard in AA that: ‘Religion is for people who fear hell and spirituality is for people who have been to hell.’ I’d certainly been to hell in my addiction - and it was the spirituality in the AA programme that saved my life. It’s also free, although you can donate if you want. There are meetings everywhere. But after two years I thought if I stayed away from drugs I’d be okay to drink. It was horrific, worse than

AA is located along the entire Costa del Sol and there is a meeting with friendly people who will understand your problems somewhere near you every day. Call the AA helpline for support: 600 379 110. Visit the website for help & information: www.aacostadelsol.com.

ever. So I went back to AA and no one judged me. I’ve now lived without any drink or drugs for 10 years. At first I thought my life was over, that it was going to be boring. It turned out to be the opposite. I’ve now visited 42 countries and taken up hobbies such as scuba diving and paragliding. I have recently left my rewarding career in social care with the courage to follow my dream of living in Spain and writing a book. I can now enjoy time with family and friends. If anyone thinks they might have a problem or know someone like this, get in touch with AA. Thanks to AA I have found real freedom and happiness, as well as the ability to face life’s difficulties without having to run to drink to cope. My life today is absolutely amazing.”

Malaga My Love

MARBELLA MOMENTS BY NICOLE KING SOME five years ago Thomas Henry introduced me to The Leon Project - a group consisting of brothers Jesús and Paco León who collaborate with other talented musicians, such as Thomas Henry, to create some truly unique melodic experiences. There was one track that really got to me: ‘Malaga my Love,’ perhaps because I have never been a big fan of Marbella’s capital city but loved the song. Just hearing the name usually brought back memories of being dragged there as a child to buy gold sandals in El Corte Inglés. The horrors of shopping, preceded and topped off with excruciatingly long drives in non air-conditioned taxis that would hurtle along the one and only precarious coastal road to and from Marbella was pure torture, particularly for a youngster that got carsick under normal circumstances and who just wanted to play in the pool! Recently however I’ve been to Malaga a few times, of my own free will. I loved it and the drive there and back (except for nearly running out of

IN recent weeks we haven’t been able to move for media ads prodding us to visit this or that hot city, this or that hot beach resort. Yes, we’ve been clobbered on all sides by images of scantily dressed women and unrealistically smiling family groups trying to turn current worries - Brexit, the unreliable British summer, granny’s annual visit - into sundrenched paradise. But hey, now there’s an alternative if you’re looking for a summer break and a bit of travel one-upmanship. And just think of all those jaw-dropping photos you’ll be able to upload on your return on Instagram! While Foreign Office advice puts Crimean War battleground tours off-limits to ordinary travellers, some opportunist firms offer tourists in Ukraine the chance to visit the modern-day war zones. Ads for trips have appeared in areas frequented by tourists, containing phrases like ‘Impress your friends with the ultimate selfies’ and ‘see where the fighting is.’ Incredible! Or how about a trip to Afghanistan, Iraq or Algeria? All available to visit by fearless tourists courtesy of trigger-happy tour companies, though finding adequate travel insur-

merry around every crooked corner and up every narrow alleyway, all packed with people! I loved the way I could leisurely admire the sights when tired of walking from different vantage points. The sights from the terrace of the new Hard Rock Café were a delight, particularly as it was the only place open for breakfast in the whole port area! (It was also lovely to bump into Linda from HRC Puerto Banus who has recently been moved to Malaga to help with the opening of this new venue, which sits atop the new pier at Muelle Uno). It was also entertaining watching the huge cruise liners coming and going at all times. A fabulous park separates the port and the city and makes for the most pleasant stroll amongst the lush, Mediterranean, tropical and sub-tropical flora that offers such delicious shade when most needed. It is also mesmerising to watch it all from above, as we did from the roof top bar at the Malaga Palacios hotel, as recommended by a very friendly and helpful taxi driver we asked for directions. In fact, everyone we spoke to in the city was surprisingly helpful and charming, as was the city itself. So much so, I think Malaga may just be my new love!

LEGALLY SPEAKING Who pays the property tax? I have recently sold my house in Spain, but I am told that I will have to pay the SUMA tax on it in September because the owner of the property on January 1 of each year is responsible for this tax. Could you confirm that this is true? J N (Costa Blanca)

UNLIKELY DESTINATION: Tourists can now visit Chernobyl exclusion zone. ance might be problematic - and don’t forget to pack those sexy-looking bullet-proof vests! But, you couldn’t ask for a hotter (yes, in all senses!) city than charming Chernobyl! Prompted by the highly-rated Sky-HBO mini-series named after the site in Ukraine of one of the world’s worst nuclear disasters in 1986, trips inside the 30km exclusion zone reportedly jumped by 40 per cent year-onyear in May when the show first aired. With its dilapidated apartment blocks, abandoned fairground and school littered with textbooks smothered in radioactive dust, Chernobyl might appear an unlikely tourist destination. Guides leading tour groups carry Geiger counters and visitors have to undergo

full-body scans for traces of radiation on departing the exclusion zone (the radiation levels supposedly similar to those experienced on an average transatlantic flight). Hmm. Well, I think I’ll just wait until the fairground is up and running again. It’s got a big wheel and some bumper cars, but does it have a roller coaster? Nora Johnson’s crime thrillers ‘Betrayal,’ ‘The Girl in the Woods,’ ‘The Girl in the Red Dress,’ ‘No Way Back,’ ‘Landscape of Lies,’ ‘Retribution,’ ‘Soul Stealer,’ ‘The De Clerambault Code’ (www.nora-johnson.net) available from Amazon in paperback/eBook (€0.99;£0.99) and iBookstore. All profits to Costa del Sol Cudeca cancer charity.

Traditionally, this has YOU AND THE been true, that the LAW IN SPAIN owner as of January 1 pays the municipal property tax for that year. But wait. There has also always been the possibility for the buyer and seller to agree beforehand to pay the tax in amounts proportional to the time each one has owned the property during that year. And now comes the Spanish Supreme Court with a sentence of June 15, 2016, declaring that, even without a previous agreement, the seller who pays the full amount of the property tax can claim from the buyer the amount proportional to the time that has passed since he became the legal owner. Consult your lawyer. Finally, you are asking about the IBI, the municipal property tax, the rates. SUMA is the tax collection agency which handles the municipal taxes for Alicante Province.

NOW, I am a glass half full kind of guy and I just think about how wonderful it is to live here in Spain. Earlier today my cousin spoke to me after he had returned home to Blighty yesterday, to howling winds and rain and has even lit a fire indoors. Meanwhile, I am writing this, sat in my shorts in the garden, enjoying a nice cooling breeze, a cacophony of birdsong and the scent of flowers. For lunch, I will have some really fresh fish simply grilled with a nice glass of cold white wine. People ask me, what do you miss about England, the seasons, the food, the beer? No, I really cannot think of anything. Except, if I have to go back for any reason, I think I will miss the plane! Raymond Stark

What if? DEAR Ed, imagine if the Barcelona authorities had refused Gaudi’s planning permission for the Sagrada Familia. Dear Don Antoni Gaudi I refer to your application for planning permission dated April 1, 1885 and can confirm the City of Barcelona, in a meeting of the full council on May 22, 2019, has reached a decision on this matter. It is my duty to inform you that planning permission has been denied. In your application, whilst you had form Modelo 4502934567 - in triplicate, signed by both Grandparents with a translation into Monrovian, attested to by a Native of Timbucktoo, it was not stapled to Modelo 45938576 (B). Under Regulation 1236 of Section 246 of the 1792 law, it distinctly states that these forms must be stapled together. As this building has been erected without permission, please knock it down. Your obedient servant, Juan Burócrata Jonathan Leigh

Beyond belief THE sheer number of candidates jostling for the Conservative leadership astounds me. I don’t know why anyone in their right mind would want the prime minister’s job at the moment. It’s truly a poisoned chalice and I wouldn’t be surprised if Brexit brings down whoever lands the job, just like it brought down May and Cameron. I’m looking forward to it all being over.

Missing England? EXHUMATION HALTED I READ about the halting of the moving of General Franco’s body from the Valley of the Fallen in last week’s paper ( Issue 1770) with concern. I don’t see how keeping a dictator who murdered thousands in a mausoleum built by political prisoners can be justified in a democracy. Imagine if the same were the case in Italy or Germany with their former fascist leaders! I have many Spanish friends and one thing that comes across is the difficulty in confronting a painful period of history. Many say it is better to let the matter lie and for

NEWS that anti-tourist graffiti appeared on the walls of Granada City last week has reignited the debate over the effects of an economically vital industry on Spanish locals. Spain’s tourism sector is the third largest contributor to the overall economy, accounting for about 10 per cent of total output (Gross Domestic Product, GDP) according to government figures. The industry is responsible for developing large swathes of the country’s Mediterranean coastline which expatriates now call home, as pictures of Benidorm from the 1950s and 1960s illustrate. Cities such as Granada also draw a hefty dividend from tourists who spend their money in local shops, bars and restaurants, benefiting the wider economy. The traffic of travellers into Spain has also helped to build bonds across borders and break down misconceptions held by tourists and locals about each other and their countries. But as with all aspects of the economy, the gains are seldom shared equally and the price of success for some is suffering for others. The Canary and Balearic Islands are both home to anti-tourism movements who argue the industry has led to overdevelopment, harming their homes and the environment. In Barcelona the rise of holiday rentals has seen residents priced or even turfed out of neighbourhoods where they grew up because of the lure of profits from tourism. If tensions are to be eased then the benefits from the industry must be more widely shared and the impact on locals reduced.

TIME OUT

YOUR STARS FOR NEXT 7 DAYS AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) More than one possibility presents itself in connection with a problem. A foreign visit or visitor figures highly in plans and solutions. A change in someone close is brought to your attention. Get people talking to make real progress. Some may be inclined to put their head in the sand but not you.

PISCES (February 20 - March 20) A date on your calendar draws near. It seems less important than it did and you may be tempted to cancel. Think twice. The question of who to go on holiday with comes up and someone is keen to tie you down. Keep options open because things this week are changeable, indeed.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20) An opportunity to do something socially arises. It is not earth shattering, but could have a great long-term impact. Others seem to have confidence in you and enjoy your company this week. Having been given the chance to show what you are really capable of, allow your talents to show through.

and there is the chance to meet someone that you admire.

LEO (July 24 - August 23) May we consider for a moment what you thought that you would be doing, right now, five years ago? Yes, do you see what I mean? Breaking away from an old habit could be the best thing that you have done for a long time.

‘Greetings cards featuring artwork by AudreyQ are available at P.C. Highway, Javea with profits going to Aspadis, a Valencian charity for severely handicapped children.’

VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) Taking a step back from the activity appeals right now. After an active time, energy needs building up. Basking in someone's glory shows you just how things could be. Give a new relationship more of a chance to grow. The avenues this person can open up to you will put a twinkle in your eye and a blush on your cheek.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) A new start with someone, socially, shows great promise. Consider what you want to get rid of in your life and plan how to approach the task. A bit of military precision goes down well. Cast your net wide. It may be necessary to invest in a few theatre tickets or a weekend away.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) Should things go absolutely perfectly for you this week, then I would eat my hat. I don't usually wear one but would go to a charity shop immediately. Rolling round in your mind is the thought that, just as things start to go well, another problem crops up. Relax, anyway.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23) Social life is squeezed because of business commitments. As you are a people person, there will be fun and times out aplenty this week. Burning the candle at both ends works for a while

SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) The past has been kind to you but also unkind. It is the same for most of us, so don't think that you have been singled out for a bumpy ride. Be aware that basing a decision made this week on what happened a long time ago could be a mistake.

Hayfever relief FOR hayfever sufferers, the great outdoors can be a nightmare, here are some tips to hopefully prevent, but certainly minimise your suffering. • Start your allergy medications before the pollen season gets underway. • Dry your clothes indoors, and remember to keep your windows and doors shut at home to limit your exposure to pollen. Don’t be tempted to hang washing outdoors to dry. Shower and wash your hair as soon as you get home in the evening to remove pollen, and take your clothes off in the bathroom rather than the bedroom. • When in your car, keep your windows up. If you can, adjust your air vents to re-circulate air inside rather drawing in the outside air. It is also advisable to keep the sunroof closed. • Plan a trip to the seaside, where pollen levels are always relatively low, which may offer some respite.

POLLEN SEASON: Prevention measures will help with the symptoms.

• Groom and wash pets more frequently, to remove trapped pollen from their coats. • Dusting your home with a damp cloth and vacuuming more frequently will also help to keep pollen levels down. Some vacuums are more effective at removing pollen, so investigate which is best. • Try to relax and get some

sleep too. Stress seems to make hay. fever worse and it has been found that people who slept for at least seven hours a night were found to have milder symptoms too. Ask your pharmacist for advice on the best products for your particular set of symptoms and consult your doctor, if the symptoms persist.

THE knee is the largest joint in the body. • four bones • more than 20 muscles and tendons • four major ligaments + little ones • and at least three layers of cartilage. Here’s Part 2 of my A to Z of things to think about if you have knee pain. Nothing Unfortunately waiting for it to ‘go away on its own’ doesn’t always work, especially as you get older. It is always best to be proactive, the sooner you act the easier, quicker and more effective treatment is. Orthotics The dreaded ‘things in your shoe.’ Fortunately technology has moved on and they are now slim and discreet enough to fit in shoes you already own.

Q Angle Correction: The angle formed by your thighbone and shinbone through the knee cap when viewed from the front. If you are knock-kneed or bandy-legged this angle is wrong, putting extra pressure on the knee and increasing wear and tear. Referred Pain Getting an accurate diagnosis is critically important! Pain in the knee can be

referred from the hip or the feet and without an accurate assessment, treatment is a waste of time as you are not treating the true cause of the problem. Supports Are not all created equal! It is important to get the right one for your knee problem and the activity you want to do. New specialised techniques using tape are also effective. Elastic supports stifle the circulation and restrict movement. Tissue Engineering Or stem cell regeneration. This is a

new surgery technique which implants cartilage from elsewhere aiming to stimulate cartilage regrowth but has mixed results to date. Ultrasound Used by physiotherapists, this therapy uses sound waves to reach deep tissues and increase blood flow, relax muscles and aid healing. Viscosupplementation Injections of hyaluronate into the joint to lubricate it but not cure it. The injection can be painful and only offers

short term pain relief. Water Exercising in your swimming pool takes the weight off your knees. Over and over again research shows exercise can reduce knee pain, and is a MUST! X-rays And other investigations can give you a clearer idea of how advanced the problem is. Always make sure you get the right investigation for your problem, this should follow a detailed clinical assessment. Youth Osgood-Schlatter Syndrome can affect teenagers and youngsters as they grow. Often misnamed ‘Growing Pains’ it’s simple to reduce the pain and onward symptoms. Zig Zag Left knee and right hip? Left ankle and right knee? Pain that started in the left knee and moved to the right? Shooting or stabbing pains? All signs that a more thorough assessment is needed as the root cause might not be where you’re feeling your pain today.

Local rocker unplugged ALTHOUGH it is relatively easy to record new music, many bands and artists need to be able to raise funds to cover their costs and to offer new product to their fans. One such artist is Estepona-based American, Danny Vaughn, a singer who found fame in the rock band Tyketto which had a massive hit in America with Forever Young just as the ‘grunge’ scene was emerging in the USA and what could have been a highly successful career for the band petered out, although they still get together and tour on a regular basis. Danny continued to perform in various bands and until recently was part of the very successful Ultimate Eagles band which has had great success around Europe and Australia. With a number of songs waiting to be recorded, the singer decided to attempt to raise funds though American company Pledge Music which was formed in 2009 and with their help he hoped to raise around £17,000 (€19,550) and part of the arrangement was that prior to recording he would receive £10,000 (€15,000) but in actual fact by the time that his campaign closed just under £27,000 (€31,000) had been pledged. Naturally, there was commission to

He still had to go ahead with the recording sessions for Myths, Legends and Lies, but thanks to fans worldwide, he was able to pay for the recording and

complete the session. Although he spends much of his time abroad, he will be playing an acoustic set at O’Callaghans bar in Sabinillas starting at 9.30pm on Friday June 21 and entry is free.

to pop in to the casino any night to enjoy these wonderful works. Nimrod Messeg was born in Israel in 1970 and is the son of the Israeli painter Aaron Messeg and the poet Sabina Messeg. Nimrod began sculpting from an early age in his

father ’s workshop and has developed his own unique and eclectic style. After travelling around the world for many years, Nimrod settled in Marbella in 1999 and has developed his own artisan method of sculpting with iron and uses traditional forging techniques to create textures, shapes and effects which transform t he m et al i nt o som et hi ng beautiful, light and soft.

The Wrecking Ball singer was headlining at the Spanish festival, Primavera after Cardi B was required to cancel her performance. A few days later she tweeted ‘She CAN’T be grabbed without consent.’

The glitterati of Marbella dress to impress THE summer season got off to a glamorous and glitzy start in Marbella at La Sala by the Sea’s White and Gold Party. Guests at one of the hottest dates in the Marbella calendar were welcomed with a glass of bubbly as they made their way into the spectacularly decorated ocean front location. Fire jugglers, dancers, and other acts combined with La Sala’s signature entertainment and a performance by Motown band Cool Fire ensured a fantastic atmosphere on Saturday night, as drinks flowed and tapas were offered.

University students Jake Macintyre (18) and 19-year-old Millie Sprenger are based in Marbella and study in the UK. Excited to be at the hottest event to kick start the summer during their break from studies, Jake told EWN: “We love it at La Sala by the Sea and tonight is fantastic.” “The music is great and I love the dancers,” added Millie. Friends Elena, Liesya and Eneli were blown away by the combination of glamour and elegance. “It’s just so charming and exclusive,” said Elena, adding: “Everybody looks amazing and elegant, it looks like a bridal party with everybody in white.” La Sala shareholders Julie Cracknell and CJ Sherdley said: “We are really happy to be here,

it’s all about kicking off the summer season and it’s great to see La Sala doing so well.” While ensuring everybody was having a brilliant time, owner Ian Radford managed to snatch a moment with wife Claire and daughter Chea, before a quick chat with EWN. He explained: “We started this 12 years ago. It was a party to launch La Sala by the Sea and we have kept it going each year since. It’s an anniversary that has become a date in the Marbella calendar. “When we opened back then we were still painting an hour or so before the big launch. None of us really knew what to expect and more than 500 people turned up. It was a great night. “This is all about getting everyone together again, a repeat of what we did back then.”

Simply Scandinavian keeps it simple WHAT does the phrase Scandinavian kitchen bring to mind? According to Simply Scandinavian restaurant executive chef Mika Väätäinen the correct answer is fresh, pure and tasty. Simply Scandinavian is a new trendy dining restaurant located in Los Boliches, Fuengirola. It is what the name says, a restaurant which offers fresh, pure and tasty food cooked by Scandinavian methods. They use only the best ingredients putting local producers first, but of course the reindeer meat comes from Lapland and some other ingredients directly from Scandinavia according to Chef Väätäinen. On the menu you’ll find fish in many ways as Scandinavian specialities are often based on fish, because water is everywhere up in the north. If you’re not on the coast there will be hundreds of lakes and ponds full of fresh fish. For example, herring in cranberry sauce is something that you don’t find anywhere else. Also shrimps are used a lot and a delicious Swedish shrimp speciality is Toast Skagen which is one of the best known Scandinavian dishes. Besides fish, Scandinavians eat a lot of game. The most exotic dishes are made of

Simply Scandinavian gave a challenge to German sommelier Peter Freislederer to build up an innovative and seductive wine list and he was told to place an emphasis on local Andalucian wines. This was an interesting job, as to find the right wines for Scandinavian gourmets is not easy but it’s rewarding. For example they found Flor de Indalia wine from Almeria. That is just a perfect match for salted trout or roasted seabass.

This week Celebrity Chef from Ready Steady Cook & Fellow Master Chef Steven Saunders, proprietor of The Little Geranium in La Cala makes a healthy vegetarian Gazpacho with a twist.

What the health! Steven Saunders FMCGB The Little Geranium La Cala de Mijas & Marbella www.thelittlegeranium.com

THERE has always been confusion over what we can and what we can not eat. We were told milk was very healthy for us and given it at school and punished if we didn’t drink it, now we are told that it’s one of the worst things that we can consume. Then we were told that eggs were healthy and now we are told eating one egg a day could be as unhealthy as smoking five cigarettes a day! Next we were told white meat is more healthy than red and now we are told that chicken and turkey are higher in carcinogens than other meats and therefore the worse food to eat, along with processed meats, sausages, hams and salamis (anything in a plastic pack usually) they are packed with saturated fat and are cancer promoting. Fresh fish swimming in the sea, can

be mercury sponges high in cholesterol and some with cancer promoting properties, especially farmed fish like salmon, its all a real shock and horror! What the hell can we eat? I can pretty much guarantee that what we have been told over the years about our food is wrong and intended to be confusing. One of the main reasons behind all the untruths is because some of the world’s most important health organisations are funded by the likes of KFC, Burger King, McDonald’s and some of the world’s largest intensive meat producers. These multi-billion dollar businesses will not allow anything to get in the way of their sales and our own advisory organisations which we trust, are told not to give out too much information, anything that could damage to these brand’s sales, is totally taboo. It’s your food that causes all your problems, but we eat something bad for us every day and we don’t know it. You may as well smoke, if you don’t already. Governments are not interested in helping to resolve this, because they are also funded by some of these billion dollar companies along with Monsanto who provide the

SPECIALISTS: Me with my head chef, Prince. chemicals that are sprayed on our fruit and veg. Without Monsanto the world would be missing trillions of dollars of revenue from the chemical sales and loss of yield, millions of people would lose jobs. So the governments choose not to make the spraying of crops or injecting of antibiotics and steroids into

meat to promote fast growth, illegal. Doctors are told not to tell us too much as far as diet is concerned and they won’t usually advise on diet at all. Are they diagnosing too much and prescribing too often? They will often prescribe drugs made by the huge drug companies so that they make money. We may have a cure for cancer, alzheimer’s and diabetes, but no one will tell us because the drugs would cost too much to prescribe and then we would be overpopulated, millions of jobs would be at risk if suddenly no one was sick! There are many TV documentaries covering some of these issues, but the best one I have seen is ‘What the Health’ (Netflix) - watch it! The bottom line is that unless you are eating the highest quality ingredients with clear provenance and in moderation then you are potentially at risk of getting something. A plant-based diet (vegan) is better for us but it’s only better if we can enjoy that kind of diet and to be honest not many of us can. In my opinion, my little restaurant is what all food outlets should be about. We passionately buy the best, organic,

free range meats, wild venison, free range un-injected chicken, sustainable fish from non-contaminated waters and organic fruits, vegetables and herbs. But we are specialists and not a mainstream restaurant, so most could not afford to do this. The reason that a lot of outlets and restaurants offer you intensively farmed cheap injected meats packed with antibiotics isn’t because they want to, it’s because they can’t afford to buy the best. Their argument is that there isn’t a market for it because the public demand cheap food, prices matter, even one or two euros! I often stand outside my restaurant and hear people say… it’s a great restaurant, but expensive. It’s an oxymoron. Sure you can save a few euros if you go somewhere else, but how much could you save in the long run if you ate premium quality ingredients for the rest of your life! Watch ‘What the Health’ and then you decide! On a lighter note, one of the nicest, freshest things to eat in this steamy heat is a cold vegetarian Gazpacho. We make a gazpacho two ways. One is a feisty red gazpacho and the other a smooth, cool, mild green gazpacho. We mix them together so that you can see the two colours and get both flavours and textures. It is fantastic, here is the recipe.

Steven Saunders’s opinions are his own and are not necessarily representative of those of the publishers, advertisers or sponsors.

Red feisty Gazpacho RED feisty Gazpacho (serves approx six) Ingredients Beef style ripe tomatoes 4-6, approx 500g 250g o f r e d wa t e r melo n d e seeded and cut in chunks 2 cloves garlic (boiled in water for 3/4 mins to reduce harshness) 1/2 white onion, chopped 1 red p e p p e r d e - se e d ed a n d chopped 1/2 cucumber or 1 whole pepino 1/4 tsp ground cumin 1 red mild chilli (Jalapeno) deseeded and rough chopped 1/2 tbsp of Maldon salt 100ml of truffle oil or extra virgin olive oil

For the gastrique 100g of sugar and 200g of red wine vinegar and a little water Method Make the gastrique by reducing th e v in e g ar a n d s uga r in a saucepan with a tablespoon of water until syrupy. P u t all th e in g re die nts into a b le n d e r w ith th e ga s trique a nd blitz until there are no lumps. P o u r th e mix ture into a bow l and chill overnight if possible. The longer the better. For the smooth cool green Gazpacho Ingredients 4-6 Green ripe tomatoes, approx 500g

250g of avocado approx 3 avoc a dos (de -s tone d, pe e le d a nd sliced) 2 cloves garlic (boiled in water for 3/4 mins to reduce harshness) 1 green pepper de-seeded and chopped 2 handfuls of spinach leaves 1 heaped tablespoon of fresh basil leaves 1/2 cucumber or 1 whole pepino 1/2 tbsp of Maldon salt Juice of 1 lemon Method Follow same process as above for red gazpacho making this vers ion s mooth a nd s ilky a nd not spicy. Taste and season and drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil.

Chill in fridge overnight. To serve Pre-chill the gazpacho bowls in the fridge for a few hours before. Spoon 2/ 3 spoons of t he r ed tomato gazpacho into a small bowl then 2/3 spoons of the green and

k e e p topping up each si de so that you have the divided col our s i n each bowl. Drizzle with t r uff l e oi l and gar ni sh wi t h a t i ny sprig of basil, serve cold.

TWO TONE: A fantastic mix of both flavours and textures.

We are grateful for any help offered, including donations of food and blankets. Visiting times are from 13.00 to 15.00 and you can always turn up or make an appointment by calling Denise on 669 018 736.

Tel. 608 258 950 info@sepeonline.net www.sepeonline.net (93321) AT SOS ANIMAL REFUGE we have dogs, young and old looking for homes. Some of our dogs have been with us for some time and would love to find a cosy spot to curl up in and a knee on which to rest their heads. If you have room in your heart and home we would love to hear from you. We do not put our dogs to sleep - no matter how old, they are safe with us. For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive. We desperately need items to sell on our market stall to help raise funds and are happy to come and collect. So if you are having a clear-out, please contact us on 605 227 155.

Land Rover have announced a collaboration to develop the next generation of electric drive systems. It is surprising news in that

both manufacturers have already invested huge sums in pioneering technology, but unsurprising in that it is clear even the biggest companies can’t afford to devel-

op the next generation of electric technology on their own. When it comes down to it the move is all about money. Sharing knowledge, research, development engineering and suppliers will save vast sums by avoiding duplication and generating economies of scale. The deal encompasses electric drive systems, including the motors and operating software. Nick Rogers, Jaguar Land Rover engineering director said: “The transition to Autonomous, Connected, Electric and Shared (ACES) represents the greatest technological shift in the auto-

motive industry in a generation. “The pace of change and consumer interest in electrified vehicles is gathering real momentum and it’s essential we work across industry to advance the technologies required to deliver this exciting future. “We’ve proven we can build world beating electric cars, but we need to scale the technology to support the next generation of Jaguar and Land Rover products. It was clear from discussions with BMW Group both companies’ requirements for next generation EDUs to support this transition have signifi-

cant overlap making for a mutually beneficial collaboration.” Klaus Fröhlich, Member of the Board of Management of BMW AG, Development said: “The automotive industry is undergoing a steep transformation. We see collaboration as a key for success, also in the field of electrification. “With Jaguar Land Rover, we found a partner whose requirements for the future generation of electric drive units significantly match ours. Together, we have the opportunity to cater more effectively for customer needs.”

Classic Car Club of Andalucía

CCCA goes International! NYONE turning up at the start of the CCCA’s June classic car run could well be forgiven for thinking they had arrived at the start of a major International event. Almost 100 people, 50 cars, all grouped together at Venta Los Morenos last Saturday near the Coin - Alhaurin intersection. There was an amazing selection of classic, modern and modern classic cars from a number of different countries, proudly sporting their national registration plates and adding to the International feel of this fabulous event. Entries came in from far and wide, as well as the regulars, but all were full members of the illustrious CCCA! Event organiser, Ian Giles, was surprised by the number of enthusiastic people who had arrived to enjoy breakfast whilst going through the registration process before the 11.00am ‘off.’ The start was delayed around 15 minutes simply because of the volume of people, although the entire registration process was ably managed by Club ladies Jane Jackson, Marilyn MacPherson and Angela Sharp without whom these events could never happen! The waiting cars provided much interest for participants and spectators alike, drawing large groups of enthusiastic people to gaze at such things as the Dodge Viper and Corvette C6 of Arnie Hille. The USA was well represented with the huge American pick-up, a Chevrolet SSR, which was perhaps the most unusual vehicle to participate and were just as popular as the two beautiful red Ferrari 430 Spyders and the very rare Lotus Evante of Haig Oundjian. Mercedes are always popular cars for this type of event as they are usually reliable, comfortable and can eat up the kilometres. Several were present and possibly the prettiest was the bright red 1964 SL250 Pagoda model of Steef

A

and Ardie Doekemeijer. Two identical 230 CE Coupe Mercedes were present, one entered by regulars Simon and Andrew Buck-Honour, the other by Club Presidente and organiser, Ian Giles, who brought his out only because his Triumph TR8’s battery had cried enough just before leaving for the start. A shame as it was the first time the car would have been out of its storage area in over four years! A beautiful Porsche 928GTS finished in Martini colours was driven by Italian Franco Subbiani and navigated by his lovely wife Kim, whilst father and son team, Peter and Peter Noble, had a stunning bright red 911 convertible which they had just driven back from Portugal to make the start in time. New member, Arthur Richardson brought his gorgeous 1987 Rolls Royce Spirit II, a left-hand drive model that has covered a mere 29,000 kilometres from new and still has some of the plastic coverings from delivery on the seats! A real beauty! Jaguars too are always a good choice, and the Club boasts Jaguars of almost every model, but it was lovely to see several Jaguar E-Types which gathered a great deal of attention, as did the brace of more modern XKR’s in the hands of Jack Weiss and Andre Vileleers. Former Jaguar works racing driver, Win Percy, completed the group with his latest spec Jaguar F-Type which looked and sounded very special! Once the crews were able to get away they headed for the A355 towards Pizarra and then turned off to Alora and on past the reservoir and dam at the village of El Chorro. Here the route went past the Caminito del Rey where the spectacular gorge can be seen and also the

From here the route went on to the lakes of El Chorro where coffee was taken and many appreciative Spaniards and tourists alike enjoyed seeing the cars at close quarters. Onwards over the bigger dam and then the route turned off through the pine woods to

head north towards Campillos and then circling around the north of the lakes to head back through Ardales, passing Carratraca, whilst heading down the fast A357 towards Malaga and then rejoining the A-355 to head towards Coin, Alhaurin and Mijas. A regular tradition of these events is the cava stop. Essential maintenance for hot and

grubby crews (well, not all fit that description but some in the really old, open top cars would!) this is something that is now expected but much enjoyed and took place near Barranco Blanco, famous as the area that many Germans were taken to settle after the end of the Second World War. Now quite a local beauty spot and very popular with both tourists and locals. The organisers were there ready with the chilled fizz just before the first cars arrived and dispensed the lot from a portable table into plastic glasses. From here the route came back past the start at Venta Morenos and on towards Mijas passing Valtocado on the way, then passing Mijas Pueblo before going on down the hill, over the AP-7 Autovia and turning into the famous, and fabulous, Da Bruno’s restaurante in the Danish Centre there.

Chilled Prosecco and hot pizza awaited the hungry crews who enjoyed that and a good old chat with pals old and new before sitting down to a really excellent three-course lunch put on by Da Bruno’s. With the weather being so good, the scenery and roads so spectacular, the company, food and wines so enjoyable and the route instructions so professionally done, it was decided by most everyone that life here on the Costa with the Classic Car Club of Andalucia is indeed pretty good… The next event for the CCCA is its famous annual Summer Ball to be held at the Tamisa Golf Hotel on Saturday, June 22. If you would like to attend, contact Club vice-Chairman Brian Ladd via email on brian.ladd8@gmail.com. Until the next time,

Further information on Classic Car Club of Andalucia events can be found on the Club’s website www.cccandalucia.com. Membership of this vibrant club is open to anyone owning a genuine classic car here in Spain. Saca tu coche clásico del garaje y diviértete con el.

World Cup bid launched By Dilip Kuner SPAIN and Portugal have started to investigate a joint venture to host the 2030 football World Cup, but they seem to have dropped Morocco, which was originally thought to be part of the bid. At a meeting in Porto (Portugal) representatives of the countries’ football federations said in a joint statement: “After holding several meetings, the football federations of Spain and Portugal can confirm that they are set to begin an in-depth analysis of the possibility of presenting a joint bid to host the 2030 World Cup. “Both federations would like to take this opportunity to state that the governments of both countries have been properly informed about this process, given that they will have a key part to play in its development.” But there was no mention of Morocco. Last year Spanish PM Pedro Sanchez had suggested a three-way bid during a visit to the country. With the expansion of the finals tournament to 48 teams it had been suggested spreading the load across three nations was the best way to proceed.

If successful, this would be the second time Spain has hosted the competiton - the first time was in 1982. Portugal has never held the finals, but did host the 2004 European Championship. The countries put in a joint bid for the 2018 tournament, but lost out to Russia. Spain, the 2010 world champions, hosted the 1982 World Cup and launched a failed bid along with Portugal to stage the 2018 tournament which was awarded to Russia. Portugal has never hosted the World Cup, but held the 2004 European Championship. Morocco has tried five times to host the tournament, failing each time. It lost out to the United States, Mexico and Canada for the 2026 competition. A joint bid by Argentina, Uruguay, Chile and Paraguay for the 2030 tournament has also been announced. It will mark the centenary of the competition, which was first hosted by Uruguay in 1930. CUP’S RETURN: Spain wants to host the World Cup for a second time.

TOP MAN: Nadal overtook Djokovic by winning French Open.

Top man in top spot RAFAEL NADAL not only took his 12th Roland Garros title on Sunday, but he also took the lead in the battle for the year-end No 1 ATP Ranking from Novak Djokovic. Nadal passed Djokovic in the ATP Race To London with 5,505 points, taking a 780-point advantage over the second-placed Serbian (4,725). It is the third consecutive year in which Nadal has led the Race after the season’s second Grand Slam, and he has fittingly won the title on the Parisian clay on each occasion. This sets the stage for what could be an exciting battle for the year-end No 1 ATP Ranking. This is the closest the Race has been between the top two players after Roland Garros since 2012, when Nadal led Djokovic by 630 points after claiming his seventh trophy in Paris. In 2017, Nadal led secondplaced Roger Federer by 2,870 points and last season, he was ahead of secondplaced Alexander Zverev by 1,545 points. Nadal is now in a strong position to make a run for his fifth year-end finish (2008, ‘10, ‘13, ‘17) atop

the ATP Rankings. Nadal would join Djokovic, Federer and Jimmy Connors in a tie for the second-most times accomplishing the feat, only trailing Pete Sampras, who did it on six occasions. It is impressive that the 33year-old has passed Djokovic considering last month, the Serbian took a 900-point lead in the Race by winning the Mutua Madrid Open, and Nadal had not reached a claycourt final in 2019. But the Spaniard found his rhythm, triumphing at the Internazionali BNL d’Italia and then losing just two sets en route to his victory in Paris to make his move in the race for yearend No 1. In Paris, Nadal produced a

masterful display to take the trophy for the 12th time. The Spaniard overcame Dominic Thiem to prevail 6-3, 5-7, 6-1, 6-1. “It is truly incredible. I cannot explain it,” said Nadal. He is now just two Grand Slam titles behind Roger Federer’s record 20 for most Grand Slam titles in the Open Era. Thiem held his ground for the first two hours of the final, even taking his firstever set from Nadal in four meetings at Roland Garros. A majestic shotmaking display greeted fans as both competitors pushed each other to the limit. But as the match wore on, Nadal found his top gear and Thiem was unable to sustain his level.

FERNANDO ALONSO has discounted rumours that this weekend will see him race in his final 24 hours of Le Mans race.

current Toyota contract and it offers him and teammates Sebastian Buemi and Kazuki Nakajima the opportunity to clinch the WEC championship. At the moment they are 31 points ahead of the second Toyota in the standings.

But this has led to pitlane gossip that Alonso will turn away from WEC having achieved everything in the series in order to concentrate on Indy Car racing and his hunt to collect the Indianapolis 500 trophy he needs to complete the elu-

sive Triple Crown of Monaco GP, Le Mans and Indy 500 titles. But speaking to the 24 Hours of Le Mans YouTube channel, Alonso quashed the rumours that he will not return after this year. He said: “It won’t be my last 24 Hours of Le Mans and this is just a break, as next year I have new ideas and challenges.” He added: “If not next year, I will be at Le Mans several times in the future. “It will be something with an emotional component

with respect to the team, since the WEC Super-season ends and I have run in the best team and it has been an incredible experience. “But as for the race there won’t be an emotional aspect because I plan to return.” He went on to outline the best way to be in the hunt for a win at Le Mans, saying: “You have to be relaxed and not get excited in the first phase of the trial. “You have to focus as much as possible on Sunday and you have to save energy

to be 100 per cent on Saturday. That’s the main objective in order to perform well in the race.” If Alonso and his teammates do win it will be a unique achievement in terms of the WEC championship. The 2018-2019 season has stretched over 14 months and taken in not one, but two 24 hours of Le Mans races (as well as two at Spa). This is because the WEC is being rescheduled to make Le Mans - the flagship event - the final race of the season.
