Brit rescue TRAPPED: The British walkers were found on La Concha.
By Joe Gerrard GUARDIA CIVIL officers were called out to a mountain near Marbella after two British hikers became trapped there in the early hours of Monday. Police sources said the walkers lost their way while trying to descend from the peak of La Concha mountain, near the town of Istan. Guardia Civil mountain rescue officers were
despatched after being alerted to them. They were found near the Monchalban ravine without injuries, according to police sources. The rescue comes days after a Guardia Civil helicopter crew was despatched to the mountain to rescue four people, two of whom suffered dehydration and heat stroke. A Danish father and daughter were the ones who suffered from dehydration and heat stroke. The other two
hikers, from Alava in the Basque Country, were found separately and unharmed, Guardia Civil sources said. La Concha mountain is the
second highest peak in the Sierra Blanca range which lies between Istan, Ojen and Marbella. Its summit is around 1,270 metres high.

GUN RAID: Several weapons were found on the industrial estate.
By Joe Gerrard NATIONAL POLICE and Guardia Civil officers have seized what they described as an ‘arsenal’ of firearms as part of an investigation into an alleged drugs smuggling gang. Investigators claimed the weapons and ammunition belonged to a Dutch gang operating on the Costa del Sol. They hope the cache could help them crack open cases on killings on the Costa del Sol believed to have been motivated by gang rivalries. Officers traced the firearms after seizing a 6,000-kilogram shipment hidden inside bananas in Alhaurin de la Torre in October last year. Six assault rifles, two semi-automatic pistols, one revolver, four hand grenades and several rounds of ammunition were found in a raid on Malaga City’s Santa Teresa industrial estate. Investigators said information was also found which could lead to arrests. The find comes as part of a wider investigation into the gang which has so far seen 20 people arrested.

Holy waters THIS picture of religious devotees lowering a figurine of the Virgin Mary into the sea comes as Spain prepares to mark the Virgen del Carmen fiesta on Tuesday. The Festival of Our Lady of Carmen, to give the fiesta its full name, is celebrated in Spain and across Latin America every July 16. It is particularly popular in coastal areas as the Carmen incarnation of the Virgin Mary is commonly associated with the sea. The name Carmen comes from the holy mountain of
Mount Carmel in modern-day Israel. The link between the Virgen del Carmen and the sea forms the centrepiece of the festival when the figure of the Virgin Mary is carried into the water by worshippers. The festival stems from a visitation that English prior Saint Simon Stock was said have experienced on July 16, 1251. The Virgen del Carmen is said to have appeared to him and told him she would free anyone who worshipped her from going to purgatory

Shooter search
Assault sentence
NATIONAL POLICE officers are tracing a shooter who opened fire outside a Marbella nightclub popular with celebrities in the early hours of Saturday. Several gunshots were fired at the entrance to Olivia Valere shortly after 6am. No one was injured at the club which has been a popular haunt for celebrities including Kate Moss, Paris Hilton, Naomi Campbell and Bruce Willis among others. Police sources claimed men of Arab origin were seen leaving the nightclub at around 6.10am but were told they could not take their glasses outside. An argument is said to have broken out between the men and nightclub security. Witnesses claimed weapons were taken from a car with German registration plates before the shooter opened fire. The argument between the men and security has led investigators to believe they were responsible for the shooting, but this has yet to be proven. The search continues.
A COURT in Malaga City has jailed a 32-year-old defendant found guilty of hitting his partner and pushing their eight-yearold daughter for two years. The 14th Criminal Court heard the defendant, who pled guilty to the attack, started arguing with his partner of 12 years in their home in Malaga City’s Ciudad Jardin area. The argument began in the early hours of Monday June 3. It saw the defendant break furniture and a door before grabbing his 39-year-old partner’s phone to stop her calling the police. Prosecutors told the court the 32-year-old grabbed his partner by the throat and punched her in the mouth. Their eight-year-old daughter then jumped on him to try and stop the attack but he pushed her into a door. The court ruled the defendant, a Paraguayan national, cannot approach the woman for four and half years and has ordered his deportation.

MORE than 50 Guardia Civil and Local Police officers from Marbella were sent to Manilva last week to help search for a missing 32-yearold British man. The officers were joined by a Malaga Province mountain rescue unit to search for Michael Owen who disappeared on Friday June 21. A volunteer dog unit was

mark on the Costa del Sol,” Diaz said. A total of four dogs were deployed to the search area and they helped officers try to find Owen for four days, working nine hours each day. It comes as the unit recently helped to save the life of another person and after they were previously deployed for other searches.

THE WEEK IN POLITICS TOP brass of the left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) met ahead of talks with the leftist Podemos to form a government, their only viable option for power. Party leader and acting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez met with his Podemos counterpart Pablo Iglesias on Tuesday to try and put an agreement for government together. Iglesias was still pushing for members of his party to be given briefs in Sanchez’s Council of Ministers. Sanchez said he thought such an arrangement would leave the government working at cross purposes. “We do not need two governments in one, but a government with a coherent message,” the acting prime minister said. However, Sanchez added he would be willing to appoint independent ministers, a thinly-veiled concession to Iglesias who could nominate figures from outside his party.

DEAL PITCH: Sanchez and other PSOE figures discussed the offer on Monday. The Podemos leader said on Tuesday his party would back PSOE on foreign policy and on the Catalan independence question, showing he has backed down in some areas. “We do not have red lines. We understand, because of the balance of the parties, that the leadership of the government on Cataluña must fall with PSOE,” Podemos sources said.
The declaration led to a sharp rebuke from PSOE acting Defence Minister Margarita Robles who accused Iglesias of changing its position on Cataluña to get a seat at the table. “I do not think it’s coherent. If you have a position you have to stick to it,” she said. Iglesias said his party would push for dialogue on the issue but added Podemos’ focus remained on securing social jus-
tice. The latest moves towards forming a government come as Sanchez prepares to face the Congress of Deputies investiture vote from Monday July 22. Sanchez met with conservative Partido Popular (PP) leader Pablo Casado to try and persuade him to abstain in the vote, making it easier for PSOE to secure power. Casado said he would vote no because his responsibility lies in opposing the government. A rift has also opened between PSOE and the centrist Ciudadanos opened after PSOE Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska said their siding with the PP and far-right Vox threatened LGBTQ rights. The angry reaction from Ciudadanos leader Albert Rivera makes it more likely his party will also vote against the investiture.
One year in CONSERVATIVE Partido Popular (PP) leader Pablo Casado marks one year in the party’s top job this month. Casado’s time at the head of the party has seen it go through some of its toughest times in its history, including a disastrous election result in April. It will be for future historians to judge how much responsibility for the wiping out of around half of the party’s Congress of Deputies members falls with Casado. But it is clear that Casado’s initial strategy for the party which saw him move further to the right did not pay dividends. The logic was clear enough. Casado hoped to stave off the threat from the insurgent far-right Vox on his right flank while differentiating the PP from the centrist Ciudadanos. While some may argue he bungled that election, Casado showed his talent for ideological pivoting when he adopted a more centrist message following the defeat. The PP was able to regain momentum during local and regional elections in May. It held onto many of its heartlands while scoring some notable victories, including installing one of its own as Madrid mayor. Casado will have to continue delivering to avoid a future catastrophe.
Poll tracker: • Partido Socialista (PSOE): 31.2 per cent, 134 seats • Partido Popular (PP): 17.4 per cent, 71 seats • Ciudadanos: 16.6 per cent, 63 seats • Unidos Podemos: 13.1 per cent, 35 seats • Result: PSOE largest party, no overall control

AROUND one in every three British expatriates, including in Spain, are looking to get citizenship or permanent residency in their host countries because of Brexit, a survey shows. CurrencyFair’s survey of 664 expatriates showed they tended to be more worried about Brexit than those in Britain. A total of 42 per cent of expatriates said they were concerned about Brexit’s impact on debt versus 20 per cent of British residents. More than half of expatriates said they were worried about Brexit’s impact on their retirement plans compared to 34 per cent in Britain. CurrencyFair CEO Paul Byrne said expatriates were looking to avoid possible negative economic consequences. “Our research indicates that Brexit may be forcing the hand of expats to seek citizenship they might not otherwise seek,” he said. A total of 52 per cent of expatriates said they think Brexit will push up living costs compared to 41 per cent of in Britain. A total of 34 per cent of expatriates said they were currently looking at becoming residents and citizens and a further 5 per cent said they would get do so in the event of a hard Brexit.

MPs from both the ruling Conservatives and the opposition Labour party have floated plans to stop either Boris Johnson or Jeremy Hunt railroading a no-deal past lawmakers. Conservative Dominic Grieve is attempting to force the government to make a statement on Northern Ireland in October, making attempts to suspend parliament at that time illegal. Johnson said he would consider suspending, or proroguing, parliament if it meant he could secure Brexit. That provoked a backlash including from former leadership rival Sajid Javid who said it would be undemocratic.

Current Foreign Secretary Hunt said he would consider delaying Brexit beyond the deadline if it meant securing changes to May’s deal. It follows comments from former Civil Service Brexit head Philip Rycroft who said ‘everyone’ should be worried about a no-deal.

RENFE: Workers are set to strike after talks regarding pay and conditions broke down.
Rail strike A TRADE UNION representing Spanish workers at the Renfe railway company has called a strike for Monday July 15 after talks with bosses on pay and conditions broke down. CCOO said negotiations between themselves and Renfe executives failed to secure satisfactory concessions on creating jobs, reducing working hours and raising pay. The 24-hour strike is set to take place on one of the busiest days for the publicly-
owned rail company. Passengers travelling to different parts of Spain for summer holidays could face disruption, delays and cancellations if the strike goes ahead. CCOO said it would be open to negotiating with Renfe if the company is willing to make concessions. Renfe has yet to comment on the strike. The Ministry of Development is expected to say which services will still run and which will be cancelled in the coming days.
Revenge fake suicide bid by Dilip Kuner A 54-YEAR-OLD woman has allegedly tried to stage the suicide of her ex’s new girlfriend - the motive, jealousy. The unnamed woman is alleged to have lain in wait for her love rival in the lobby of her exboyfriend’s apartment building in Vigo, Galicia. When her target arrived, the accused allegedly pulled out a 19-centimetre knife and forced her victim to let her into the apartment and locked the door. Police say the attacker forced her victim to
strip naked at knifepoint, then made her take sleeping pills. All the time wearing latex gloves to avoid fingerprints, the alleged assailant then made a series of cuts to the victim’s arms and legs. Next she was forced into the bath with the taps turned on, apparently to stage a suicide. Disturbed neighbours called police after hearing the woman scream. She was found in the bath and told officers the 54-year-old had a knife. The defendant now faces charges of attempted murder and false imprisonment and has been remanded in custody by a Galician court.
Border control cash SPAIN will spend €26 million to buy a fleet of vehicles for Morocco’s Interior Ministry to strengthen border control and fight illegal immigration to Europe. The equipment bought will include four different types of off-road vehicles, including ambulances, and four different
types of trucks, including tankers and refrigerated lorries. This is part of €140 million which the European Commission promised to Morocco to help pay for its efforts in the surveillance of its borders, with Spain being in charge of disbursing €40 million of it.
Increased surveillance of Moroccan borders has reduced irregular entries to Spain in the first half of the year after a record year of arrivals. The Ministry of the Interior recorded the arrival of 13,263 until June 30, a fall of 23 per cent compared to the same period last year.

Once the victim was able to leave the hotel, she immediately filed a complaint with the Guardia Civil for the alleged gang rape she suffered. At around 4am on Thursday, July 4, a doctor certified she had injuries compatible with rape.

Green jobs boost MEETING Paris Climate Change Agreement requirements would create an extra 200,000 jobs in Spain and 1.2 million in the European Union as a whole. According to a report by the European Commission, adopting all the necessary measures to meet the agreement would boost the GDP of the Community bloc by 0.5 per cent by the end of the next decade. These are two of the main conclusions of the annual study on employment and social affairs of the Community Executive, which this year includes a chapter on the impact of measures t o t r ansi t i on t o a car bonfree economy.

A little help from abroad POLICE from Portugal, Italy and France are patrolling with Spanish officers on the streets of Madrid this summer. The collaboration with foreign police forces is possible thanks to the Prum Convention, signed to improve cross-border cooperation between European Union countries’ police forces. “Our job is to help tourists from our own countries,” explained Fabio, an Italian officer. “This is my first visit to Spain and the first time I have worked abroad.” According to official figures, 1,500 pickpockets were arrested in Spain last year and the officers will be present in the city’s tourist zones where they abound. Thierry Alonso from France said that “as well as helping to prevent these incidents, it was necessary to help foreign tourists lodge an official complaint with the police. “There are a lot of robberies and tourists don’t know what to do,” he said. “The foreign police officers are integrated in each police station and they are one of us, helping with public safety problems,” said Natacha Stevenin Fernandez, a National Police officer in Madrid.

INNOVATIVE: An artist’s impression of the front of the new Witty Wood project.
First wooden commercial building in Spain to be built in Barcelona FOLLOWING the lead of countries like Japan and Norway, Barcelona will house a new office building made entirely out of renewable wooden materials. The building will be situated in Barcelona’s 22nd district and is designed by world renowned architects Ballarin & Grinyo. Named ‘Witty Wood,’ the structure will predominantly house office
spaces and have a total area of 4,100 square metres of floor space. It is designed to have multiple benefits including absorption of electromagnetic waves from mobile phones and office equipment, regulate humidity inside as well as providing a less stressful environment to work in, with 66 per cent of workers preferring to
work amongst natural materials. “It is important to enhance the benefits of a wood construction as this material is a renewable resource that helps protect us from climate change by absorbing and fixing atmospheric CO2 inside,” said a spokesman from the architecture firm. Construction of the innovative project is due to begin in 2020.

‘Fake cash’ bust TWO suspects have been arrested in Sevilla City allegedly for using fake €50 bank notes to pay for lottery tickets in different ‘Once’ kiosks. Police have warned vendors the counterfeit bank notes are strikingly similar to real notes and if left undetected, could lead shop owners especially smaller businesses into trouble. The notes are believed to have originated in the south of Italy which is the largest producer of counterfeit money in Europe. For over a decade police have been seizing fake bank notes which have originated from the illegal Italian industry that has since
manifested and spread further afield into Spain and the rest of Europe. The National Analysis Centre of the Bank of Spain traced the counterfeit money back to Naples according to a police statement released on Wednesday. They note that the Naples brand uses a very intricate printing system to imitate the bank notes and because of this it is very popular with crooks all over Europe. Police have advised that a suspicious bank note will generally have heavier ink, so the first thing to check is if the print has the same texture as another note by scratching it.
Mum murder bail refused A PALMA court has turned down a bail request from the girlfriend of a 16-year-old Ecuadorian boy who is accused of murdering his mother. The Spanish girl, aged 17, presents flight risk and should be held in the Mallorca’s Es Fusteret secure centre given the seriousness of the events, according to the judge. She has been held at the centre since May 28. Gloria Zavala’s son and the main suspect in her killing, was sent to Es Pinaret. The couple left Mallorca the day before the 53-year-old woman’s body was found at her s’Arenal home. The children fled to Belgium and the girl told police she thought they were going on a romantic getaway.

‘Thousands’ could be in sects AROUND 400,000 people could be members of extreme sects in Spain, according to researchers. Experts met at the Catholic University of Avila in Castilla y Leon and said that the 400,000 figures was roughly equivalent to 1 per cent of Spain’s population. Luis Santa Maria del Rio, a researcher into the groups, said they were a social problem ‘of the first order’. Vicente Jara, a founder of the Ibero-American Network for the Study of Sects (RIES) said anyone is capable of becoming ensnared in a sect. “A sect is an aggressive social group that is predatory and malignant. They mimic and pretend to be something else and lures people in,” Jara said.

Vatican envoy to Spain steps down By Joe Gerrard THE Vatican’s envoy to Spain has retired in the midst of a row sparked by him claiming the government was ‘resurrecting Franco’ by exhuming and moving the former dictator’s remains. Renzo Fratini, the Holy See’s nuncio or representative in Spain, wrote to Pope Francis informing him of his resignation earlier this year. The Pontiff accepted the resignation the same day as Spain’s ambassador to the Vatican Carmen Peña presented authorities there with an official complaint about Fratini’s remarks. Alessandro Gisotti, a spokesperson for the Holy See, said the resignation was accepted because Fratini had reached 75, the age at which Vatican officials legally have to retire. The resignation comes as five magistrates at Spain’s Supreme Court heard testimonies from experts on where Francisco Franco’s body should be reburied. The experts, who wrote a report on the former dictator’s reburial for his descendants, claimed Madrid’s Almudena cathedral would be the better choice for security reasons. Franco’s family has pushed for his burial in the cathedral once his remains are removed from the Valley of the Fallen. The government wants the former dictator to be interred in Mingorrubio-El Pardo cemetery due to concerns the cathedral could become a far-right and fascist pilgrimage site if chosen.

Donating blood in Spain LIVING in Spain can bring with it an array of issues which may not have been encountered when living in the UK. There are lots of things to consider, and we are here to help try to make the transition and life in Spain a little easier by compiling a series of helpful facts and figures relating to a variety of topics. In Spain, Blood Components and Services are provided by 17 Regional Blood Transfusion Services. Despite their autonomous operations management, every regional service is fully incorporated into a unique and common Public National Health System, supplying a cohesive blood transfusion care to all citizens, residents, and visitors in Spain based on 100 per cent voluntary and non-remunerated blood donation. For more general information, visit www.msps.es. Anyone who has lived continuously in the UK between 1980 and 1996 (a minimum of one year) will not be able to donate blood in Spain due to the risk of transmitting mad cow disease. Similarly, there are restrictions if you have received a blood transfer in the UK. However, each region may have different rules about donation. Call the donation helpline on 935 573 500. Alternatively, visit www.donorsang.gencat.cat to find out if you are eligible. If you are eligible, you can give blood at your local hospital, or via the Spanish Red Cross (Cruz Roja) at one of their clinics, or in one of their mobile units. You can check dates and locations by visiting www.donarsangre.org. A donor card is not necessary to give blood. On the first visit you will have to provide DNI, NIE, passport or a driving licence. If you are already registered in the Blood Bank, you only need a donor card or a document with your name and surname. The process of blood donation takes just 10 minutes in which 450 ml are collected (equating to 10 per cent of the total blood circulation of an adult person). Despite huge technological advances, the only way for hospitals to obtain blood is through the generosity of the public. The blood is carefully screened for disease to make sure it is safe. After a tattoo, you must wait four months to be eligible to donate. After surgery, the exclusion period will depend on the type of intervention. After minor surgical procedures, you cannot donate blood for seven days or until you are fully recovered. After undergoing major surgery, you will not be able to donate blood for four months. The rarest blood type is AB, present in 1 per cent of Caucasians, according to research by the America Red Cross. Blood transfusions are carried out daily in Spanish hospitals with more than 6,200 patients being given them, of whom almost a quarter are fighting cancer and a similar figure receiving transfusions during or after surgery. Spain has around two million donors in total, but needs closer to four million. This information is for guidance only, and should not be taken as legal advice. If in any doubt, seek professional help.

The measure involves collecting the identity documents of all guests staying in accommodation. Guests have to sign a ‘Parte de Viajeros’ arrival form, which must be kept on file for three years in case of police inspection. The holiday owner or rental company must also enter
the guest identity details into the police websites to log their arrival. The Check-in Scan app helps make this process easy: just ‘Scan, Sign & Send’ from a mobile. Download the app, create a free account and add a property. Open the app and start a check-in by scanning the guest passport or ID card with the mobile’s camera and collect their signature as they can sign on screen.

‘Plane sailing’ pledge SPAIN is prepared to deal with possible airport chaos this summer. Last year was one of the worst for delays and strikes at Spanish airports, admitted Javier Gandara, president of the ALA airlines association and easyJet’s director general in Spain. There would be no repetition this year, especially in airports like Barcelona’s El Prat, he pledged. “We are confident that Spain is doing everything to ensure that this year is better,” Gandara said. Collaboration between airlines and public and European bodies at El Prat has been “fundamental,” he added. Last summer, Ryanair strikes coincided with those of air controllers in Marseilles, problems with Spain’s own air controllers, bad weather, security problems, the continual increase in European air traffic and Vueling’s lack of capacity. El Prat was the most affected as 70 per cent of its traffic enters Marseilles’ air space but this year some flights will use different routes to avoid the problem. The national government is also committed to increasing El Prat’s own air controllers while Vueling will have 10 reserve planes. If the El Prat measures prove successful, these could be applied to other Spanish airports, Gandara revealed.

Marbella NEWS THE firefighters (Bomberos) of Marbella have over the years saved hundreds of lives and raised large amounts of money for charity. Their latest act of kindness goes back some time to when they discovered that a seven-year-old boy known as Benjamin was trapped on the fourth floor of an apartment building without a lift as he simply couldn’t manage to walk down the stairs to go to school. These caring men and women used to carry him down so that he could go to school and then take him back up when classes had ended. Benjamin had a set back and last Friday he died from

TRINITY COLLEGE in London specialises in setting exams and giving qualifications in music, drama and the performing arts. It has had a long affinity with Spain and Portugal and examiners regularly travel to the Iberian Peninsula to examine musicians in particular. In San Pedro Alcantara there is a music academy known as the Rock Factory w h i c h o ff e r s a d v i c e a n d teaching to a number of young people, including the five girls and one boy in local rock band Devils in the Sky. What is rather special about this band is that the girls are aged between 12 and 16 and drummer Sergio Rodríguez is just 10 and they have been playing together for several years,

The work on the Boulevard is scheduled to take three weeks using council electricians and is due to cost €16,500. Although the initial cost in 2019 is re l a t i v e l y h i g h , i t i s b e l i e v e d t h a t long term financial savings as well as the benefit to the environment makes the work worthwhile.

Marbella Budget increase NOW that the Partido Popular has an overall majority in the Marbella Council it has voted in favour of a budget modification which will allow it to spend a further €10 million. Part of that will be covered by the carrying forward of monies not spent in the last financial year and a decision to divert almost €1 million which was originally due to be paid by way of interest to the Junta de Andalucia into other areas as it no longer falls due. Much of the money will be spent on increasing environmental matters including the increase in local green zones, whilst a further percentage will be used on urgent repairs and improvements in sporting facilities. Another area where more funds are required is for overtime payments for the Local Police and street cleaners whose workload increases dramatically during the summer.

IN the summer especially, parking in the centre of Marbella can be something of a nightmare and the council is now going to implement its plan to increase the number of parking spaces by more than 800. It is intended to build up to five more underground car parks as well as extend the amount of residents parking in both the city and in San Pedro Alcantara. Some parking will be resident only and some will be shared, but the intention is to try to make it easier to find somewhere to park, although it should be considered that many residents don’t want to pay for parking and are more likely to continue to double park or cruise the streets as they do now.
More car parks
PARKING SPACES: The council is implementing its plan to increase the numbers. Tender documents will be issued shortly and it is anticipated that the contracts will be is-
sued by the end of this year, but the council has stated that it will be using some €1.7 mil-
lion that it has received in compensation from various corruption cases to fund the work.

Migrant rescue boat threatened with heavy fines
50,000 guns disposed of IN just one year Spain’s Guardia Civil has destroyed more than 50,000 firearms. And since 2013 the number of weapons taken out of circulation in the country has reached 430,000. Many of these weapons were illegal and seized before or after they were put to criminal use, while others were disposed of after following Spain’s gun control legislation. These mean that when a person loses the right to a gun permit then their firearms have to be made unusable or handed over to the authorities for disposal. To have a permit people need to have no criminal record and meet a list of qualifying regulations. Failure to abide by the regulations leads to a loss of both the permit and the gun. Most seized firearms are smelted down for scrap.

DESTRUCTION: Firework party devastated homes.
Fireworks destroy homes FIREWORKS at a family birthday party have left two houses destroyed and 5,000 sqm of land scorched in Mallorca. Four people were left homeless and it took firefighters 10 hours to extinguish the flames. Their task was made worse by the fact the yard of one of the homes was filled with highly flammable junk. The blaze started at around 1.50am, Sunday, on the Cami dels Pous de Buger, Sa Pobla. Fireworks from the party landed amongst a pile of junk in a neighbouring property, which provided fuel for the blaze. Flames spread and caused severe damage to both properties. Police say they have interviewed a man in connection with the blaze, and charges may follow.
THE humanitarian ship ‘Open Arms’ has been threatened with heavy fines if it continues to actively intervene with migrant ships crossing the Mediterranean. The acting governor, Pedro Sanchez has officially written to the owners of the vessel, warning them of the sanctions if their actions continue. The Open Arms is a non government organisation (NGO) that has been launched to actively help those who are trying to make it into Europe seeking refuge. However the Spanish Maritime government has warned the organisation that if they continue to seek out and rescue immigrant vessels they are in breach of Spanish maritime law and
could face sanctions of up to €900,000. At the moment the Spanish government reluctantly allow the missions to set sail however they are only permitted to administer aid to any boat they come across ‘by chance’ during routine patrols. The issue arises if they actively carry out search and rescue missions without complying with the normal requirements. They would also be in breach of infractions against maritime safety and traffic. However the NGO has stood firm and refuses to put a price on human lives. “If given the choice between a fine or a human life… the choice is obvious,” explained Open Arms head Anabel Montes.

The new regulations were brought to ensure banks had enough capital to stave off losses and cash flow problems in the event of a crisis like that of 2008.

Engineering firm unveils strategy
Minister’s top earner tax call LARGE corporations, estates, entities and the highest earners in Spain must pay more taxes to help support public services, the country’s acting Finance Minister has said. Maria Jesus Montere said in an interview with the Antena 3 TV channel that only 0.3 per cent of the Treasury’s revenue comes from the richest individuals and companies. That is far below the equivalent figure for other European countries, the minister added. “There are companies who are enjoying tax credits and exemptions similar to those they enjoyed before the last recession but they are contributing
By Joe Gerrard half of what they did in 2007 and 2008,” Montero said. “Therefore we should review this,” she added. Far-reaching tax changes planned by Montero would also see the Catholic Church, long exempt from paying levies, charged some fees. The Finance Minister said claims made by some smaller companies and entities that they received letters from the Treasury ordering them to pay corporation tax did not correspond to reality. The Treasury continues to focus its
efforts on going after ‘big fraudsters,’ she added. “It would be of little logic and little common sense to address small fraud that, although we must pursue it, does not compare to big fraud and tax evasion,” Montero said. Montero’s fiscal policy has been characterised by higher government spending and higher taxes to support it since she took office in June 2018. Her draft budget for this year would have seen tax hikes for large companies including multinational technology firms such as Google and Facebook if it had passed.
ELECTRONICS and engineering company Ingeteam has unveiled its strategy for the next three years, with bosses planning to strike new partnership deals and expand into other markets. CEO Adolfo Rebollo and Corporate Development Director Alex Belaustegi said the firm was hoping to expand into Japan and other countries with joint ventures and local partnerships. The plan comes after Ingeteam grew by 47 per cent during the last three years. It made net profits of €14.5 million in 2018, 37 per cent more than in 2017.

Renfe said the total cost of the purchase would be €473.9 million when the costs of storing and maintaining the trains during the next 15 years are included. The trains are being bought to help Renfe renew its rolling stock and move from diesel to electric powered engines. The new trains will be made up of three carriages and a generator, have top speeds of 160 kilometres per hour and will feature free wifi for travellers.
Harvest fall SPAIN’S cereal crop harvest is expected to be 17.4 million tons this year, 27.3 per cent less than in 2019 according to agro-food co-operatives who said it was due to less rain and May and June being hotter than usual.
Bank ruling MADRID’S Provincial Court has ruled a shareholder ’s request filed to bring in bankruptcy administrators to the now defunct Popular Bank cannot be admitted because the procedure can only be used for companies which have dissolved or liquidated.
Court rules pension rate ‘sexist’ SPAIN’S acting Welfare Minister said pensions for part-time workers will be reviewed after the country’s Constitutional Court ruled current rates discriminated against women. Magdalena Valerio said changes would be implemented as soon as possible. Social Security officials have been assessing the issue since the EU’s Court of Justice stated rates may break antisexism laws.
Rate changes will not affect pension supplements or payments already settled, Valerio added. It comes after the Constitutional Court ruled part-time pension rates were indirectly sexist because they did not match with full-time payments and most part-time workers are women. The ruling came after university professor Simeo Miquel Roe filed a case in a Lleida Court in Cataluña.

New tax advisor code of conduct TWO new best practice codes have been brought in to cover tax advisors following their approval by an industry body. The Forum of Associations of Tax Professions approved the new conduct codes which commits companies and workers to report rule breakers. Both codes will apply to members of the forum, with one covering associations and the other professionals, according to the Finance Ministry. Rules in the code for professionals include requiring them to advise their clients against actions which could pose ‘important’ fiscal risks. These include registering companies in overseas tax havens, the way double-entry bookkeeping is used and payments above legal limits. The Treasury Ministry said adherence to the code would be monitored by the Tax Agency. Lists of tax advisor associations, colleges and intermediaries will be published. A new logo is set to be created for professionals to use to show they are signed up to the code. The Tax Agency will also communicate with and monitor professionals and signatory associations.

Recovery ‘headwinds’ EUROZONE economic recovery continues to face headwinds but risks are currently low, according to the Spanish Vice President of the European Central Bank (ECB). Luis de Guindos said factors including the ongoing trade war between the US, China and EU, difficulties in emerging markets and Brexit uncertainty are dampening eurozone growth. The ECB should loosen the money supply to buoy growth and ensure inflation remains close to its targeted rate of just below 2 per cent, the vice president added. Policymakers should ensure that making money more readily available does not have unwanted side effects and create further risks, he said. De Guindos said it would be important for financial firms and other companies to strengthen their balance sheets to guard against shocks to the economic system. “Fortunately, banks have done exactly that in the last decade,” de Guindos said. The vice president said there had been advances in regulations since the last recession. Rules need to be introduced to cover non-banking financial entities such

De Guindos’ comments come as concerns continue over growth in the eurozone overall, in part due to Italy’s chronically low growth since the debt crisis and the fallout from Brexit. The ECB decided to revise its forecasts for eurozone economic output growth
(Gross Domestic Product, GDP) this year from 1.7 per cent to 1.1 per cent. Spain continues to buck the eurozone trend, with the country’s GDP expected to grow by 2.2 per cent this year, according to government forecasts. Spanish GDP was around €1.2 trillion last year, according to National Institute of Statistics (INE) data.

What’s in a name… continued
LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT LAST week you may remember I wrote about the extraordinary treatment my estranged wife Pauline, while en route to Mallorca, received at the easyJet boarding gate of Belfast International Airport. The following day I called easyJet for an explanation. After reaching a couple of ‘robots’- one of which informed me that my call was being recorded - I finally managed to connect with another human being. After confirming that I too was recording the conversation (a statement which immediately brought a distinct change of tone!) I commenced to put forward my concerns. ‘Why’, I began, ‘was Pauline Graham asked to pay £80 to board her designated aircraft, because the name on her passport differed slightly to the one on her boarding card’? ‘This is company policy,’ was the somewhat terse reply. ‘It is a charge administered for a change of name on the boarding card.’ Frankly this explanation conjured up a whole host of queries I could have put forward. Ie how did they issue a receipt if the payment was in cash? How did the company, at that point, actually manage to change the boarding card name? Did this mean that were I a fugitive, or a terrorist, I could become another person between the boarding gate and the aircraft simply by parting with £80? etc etc. However, since this was
REFUND: Airline issued reimbursement.
‘company policy,’ I decided not to enter these particular realms of exploration and moved on to my next, and to my mind, far more important inquiry. ‘Why,’ I continued, did a member of staff, in full view and hearing of the other passengers, vir-
tually accuse a passenger of tampering with her own passport? I explained that when Pauline pointed out that the Embassy had printed her birth certificate name (which did in fact comply with the boarding card) on the ‘remarks page’ the
somewhat officious staff member had loudly declared that the name had ‘in no way’ been put there by the Embassy and the line of print was in fact ‘crooked.’ At this revelation there was a long pause from the company representative. When she finally spoke again, her somewhat superior attitude of earlier had subdued considerably. ‘I need to consult with my superior on that,’ she announced tentatively. After a few minutes she was back. ‘If this indeed was the case,’ she said apologetically, ‘our staff member was completely out of order and we will be investigating your complaint thoroughly. Meanwhile we are refunding your £80 immediately and apologise for any inconvenience caused.’ I thanked her, but added that I required a full letter of apology and also some assurance that the staff member in question would be reprimanded for her actions. I was assured that if I put it all in writing, they would indeed comply with my wishes. So well done easyJet. At least they owned up to their responsibilities. It didn’t however explain the fact that I later discovered a further £40 had surreptitiously been removed from the account of the person who booked the ticket and equally mysteriously, refunded shortly after my altercation. Funny that! Back to the normal ‘rants’ next week folks. ‘Whatever ya do - don’t panic’! Keep the faith Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com

Golden Leaves International a one-stop shop for all your expatriate needs WE recently had the opportunity to meet with Emma Quantrill - Golden Leaves’ International Operations Director. Emma pointed out that while the company is well-known for Funeral Plans and the support, removing the burden of arranging a funeral for grieving loved ones at what can be a very difficult and upsetting time, what you may not be aware of is the company also offers additional Expat Services to all expatriates living in Spain. In addition to Funeral Plans, Golden Leaves also offers Health Insurance, General Insurances, Legal Services, NIE/Residencia Assistance, Wealth Management and Currency Exchange, which makes Golden Leaves International a one-stop shop, for all your expatriate needs, while offering a friendly, professional and knowledgeable service to their customers. They will guide you through every step of the way from arranging quotes and appointments, answering any questions to making a claim, which we all know can be a very stressful situation. charge on contents for valuables, bicycle and golf equipment are covered all risk in Spain only.
Private Health Insurance We spoke with Private Health Insurance Specialist Victoria, she explained how the Health Insurance policies that Golden Leaves offer are very comprehensive and good value for money. They also offer a lot of benefits such as, having no co-payments, using English-speaking doctors at some of the top hospitals in Spain, do not have waiting lists, covers emergency travel care abroad and includes annual checkups, dental cover, multi policy discounts, ambulance and emergency cover. Victoria is always on hand and happy to help each client through every aspect of Private Health Insurance. For example, if you are applying for a health policy to assist in obtaining your Residencia, Victoria will book the appointment for you, fill in the forms and advise you on all the documentation required. She always goes the extra mile! Victoria’s client says: “I have been very pleased with the Private Health Insurance that Golden Leaves provided for me. Victoria talked me through everything and answered all my questions promptly. Since I have taken out the insurance I have had continued help from Victoria if needed. No hesitation in recommending health insurance with Golden Leaves.” General Insurance General Insurance Specialist, Emma was also on hand to give us a little insight in to their General Insurances. Golden Leaves offer a wide range of general insurance products such as Travel, Car, Home, Marine and Business insurance.
Car Golden Leaves can provide competitive Car Insurance and they currently insure cars registered in Spain, UK, Gibraltar and Portugal. Emma highlighted that they will accept No Claims Bonuses (NCB) from previous policies, even if the bonus was not earned in Spain and how they can offer protection for your NCB. Other benefits of taking insurance with Golden Leaves is they also offer age discounts and there is an option to restrict named drivers, which could, potentially, lower your annual premium further and in turn, save you money! TEAM: Emma Macpherson, Emma Quantrill and Victoria Appleton.
Emma’s clients say: “From the first time I spoke with Emma, I felt I was talking to someone who actually cared about making sure I had the right product with the right cover at the right price. Emma had time to listen to me and I felt safe in taking out insurance with her. She worked hard to obtain the very best prices for me and beat my previous insurer by miles for better cover. “So now all my insurance, for the house, cars and scooter is all in one place with Emma and Golden Leaves. I have one contact for claims, renewals and queries, that I have complete 100 per cent confidence and trust in.”
We gained a few tips from Emma, from her experience in General Insurance. If you plan to travel: Not many people are aware once you are a legal resident in Spain, then you do not have automatic free and unlimited access to the NHS, when you travel to the UK. You can get a Spanish EHIC, but this gives very limited cover compared to their Travel Insurance policy, which gives up to €10 million cover for medical. Up to €5,000 for travel cancellations and should the worst happen, all of their policies include repatriation of the deceased and a companion on the trip. The Travel policies will cover up to 60 days on an annual multitrip policy and up to 180 days on a single trip policy. Home cover Whether it be your own residential home, a property you rent out

They also offer a policy for Communities and Community Associations. Emma added, “It is important to be open with your insurers, as there are factors
that could affect the policy and indeed whether you will continue to be insured if you do not do this, eg you must let the insurers know if you are going to let your property out on a short or long term basis.” Emma also noted that in December the policies allow an additional 10 per cent cover for any Christmas shopping, 25 per cent free of

WHEN I become Prime Minister (it’s between you and me now, Boris!) there’ll be some new laws... about queuing. First off, airports. The thing that would make the most significant difference to queuing time is people being ready when they get to the top of the security queue. It puzzles me why coats and belts aren’t off, laptops out and toiletry bags ready by the time they get to the sorting table. It hardly comes as a complete surprise, they can see everyone else doing it, and as for the lady (sorry, ladies, but it IS often one of us!) who holds up everyone else with her umpteen liquids... And don’t get me started on queues in pubs. My next law as PM will be this: anyone wanting cocktails must stand in a separate queue. So people like me (ie impatient folk) won’t any longer be held up by people wanting a Strawberry Rosé Sangria or a Bahama Mama Spritzer that the barman’s never heard of and hasn’t a clue how to make. And then there’s the queue at the cash machine to get some money before you even get to the pub. You find you’re behind a couple who decide to have a no-holds-barred row af-

Race for number 10 heats up ANNOYING QUEUES: There should be laws.
IN MY OPINION Views of a Grumpy Old Man IN a ‘move with the times,’ it has been announced that Wimbledon umpires will stop referring to women athletes as ‘Ms,’ ‘Miss,’ or ‘Mrs,’ and instead refer to them by their last name - like they do in the men’s division. Really? A move with the times? I’m now officially calling bull***t on all this. Who cares? I bet not one lady tennis player has requested this. It’s outside pressure. Wimbledon is the last place where everything is a tradition. The players must wear all white; you drink Pimms and have strawberries and cream. Members of the armed forces show you to your seat. I need to go back in time for a bit. I want to use my Co-op divi number when I go shopping. I want my Green Shield stamps and my Embassy coupons that Mrs S actually used to pay for her driving lessons when she was 17. I want to try and hold a chocolate wagon wheel in one hand with my hot chocolate drink after going to the swimming baths. If I see a member of the opposite sex, or even
LEGALLY SPEAKING
Can he hold proxy votes? I ask you to clarify the Horizontal Law concerning proxy voting at the AGM. In our community, one person has collected proxy votes from about 25 per cent of the other owners. As a result, he is usually able to have the deciding vote on matters discussed at the AGM. He makes this ‘collection’ every year. The other owners feel they are living in a dictatorship. Can you clarify? S J (Costa Blanca) The Horizontal Law provides that an owner YOU AND THE who cannot attend the LAW IN SPAIN AGM may delegate his vote by proxy to another person. This person need not even be a member of the community. A simple written notification to the president is sufficient. It is perfectly legal for one person to hold and vote various proxies. Sometimes a person will even use the proxy votes that he holds in order to be elected president. None of this is illegal. If you are opposed, you could try to collect your own number of proxy votes. This is raw democracy. If you feel that your interests have been harmed, you can go to court to impugn the results of the vote.

ter twigging someone’s spent all the dosh. Then there’s the dear soul who’s doing their entire banking via the machine and 20 minutes later tugs out a fiver. Then someone who rummages around in her bag for several minutes looking for her card, can’t see the screen as it’s too sunny, so rummages around some more searching for hat and sunglasses. At last it’s your turn, you quickly insert card and pin, whereupon a message pops up saying the machine’s out of order. And all you wanted was a beer! Hardly surprising drinking at home’s so prevalent. Finally, what about people who get on a
bus and appear shocked they need to pay? Then the hunt for coins begins in pockets and purses. Meanwhile, you stand waiting outside... in the rain. Rant over: till next time...

the same, I want to say, ‘Hi, you look nice today’ without fear of being treated like a sex offender. I want to be able to disagree or, in some cases, agree with something without the fear of being called racist, homophobic or misogynistic. I want my opinions to be heard without someone screaming at me. I want to walk through London at night without worrying I’m going to get stabbed just because I’m in the wrong place at the wrong time. I want to go out like I used to when I was young and just have fun with my mates without posting every single move on Facebook or Instagram. I want to be able to search the internet with the likes of WebCrawler and Lycos that just gave me the info I needed. Now things pop up for me to agree to and everything I do is tracked. I want to go to McDonald’s without 15 minutes later getting McDonald’s adverts on all my devices because I happen to have an iPhone. I guess I’m saying STOP!! Give me, and people like me, a break. Stop telling me what I need - I know what I need and I need to watch Wimbledon with the ladies still being called Ms, Mrs or Miss because it’s not doing any harm and I like a bit of tradition in my old age!

International education to the highest standards JANICE CAMERON PENNIE is an experienced educator with a strong Early Years background and a commitment to educating children on the Costa del Sol to the highest standards at Cameron International Primary School. Her Scottish heritage and experience strongly influences her leadership, and her exemplary attention to detail to care for her students have given her an excellent reputation. Cameron International Primary School is based in San Roque Club and provides a safe, inspiring, personalised and fun learning environment for international students to learn. The school employs highly qualified, motivated and committed teachers, who demonstrate and model the core values of the school. All members of staff are DBS certified and have current and robust safeguarding practice. Subsequently, the school also provides medical provision for their students if and when required. The school’s core values are driven by their International Primary Curriculum personal goals; Enquiry, Adaptability, Morality, Resilience, Thoughtfulness, Communication, Respect and Co-operation and these goals are fundamental to the children’s day-to-day school experience. The children are taught English and Maths through the English National Frameworks and a wide variety of subjects through the themed units

of the International Primary Curriculum (IPC). The International Primary Curriculum is a curriculum that is being used in over 1,800 schools in over 90 countries around the world. It was launched in 2000 having been created by a team of leading experts in children’s learning from around the world. The goal of the IPC is for chil-
dren to focus upon a combination of academic, personal and international learning and through the IPC, develop all the skills children will need in order to confidently face the world of tomorrow. Children learn through a series of IPC units of work. Each unit of work has a theme that today’s chil-

dren find interesting and relevant. Children learn many of their subjects through this one common theme so that their learning has meaning to them. Linking subjects means that children can make lots of connections with their learning. The more connections the brain can make, the better a child can learn. The learning that the children do within that theme has very distinct outcomes to ensure that children are learning exactly what they need to. Nobody can predict the nature of work and life opportunities that will be available for our children in the future. Many of the jobs don’t yet exist! The IPC focuses on a skills based approach to prepare our children for the fast changing world they will be living in. The teachers monitor the children’s learning via a combination of evidence-based portfolio work, summative and formative assessment, yet allowing their students to take responsibility for their own learning and how to progress. Cameron International School also offers a fantastic range of extra-curricular activities; Dance, Golf, Athletics, Music, Drama, Taekwondo to name a few and provide a homework club. The school has fully-equipped, purpose built classrooms, two gymnasiums, a library, ICT suite and the school guarantees excellent staff to pupil ratios to ensure the quality of their provision.

Pools out for summer MARBELLA MOMENTS BY NICOLE KING I LOVE walking on the beach and going for lunch or dinner to a chiringuito is heavenly, but I’m not one for lying on the beach or hanging out in the sand, particularly in the summer heat. With this in mind and having decided to start my ‘staycation’ I’ve been visiting some of the pool clubs along our coast and so far, so very, very good. My first day out was to a hotel that supports our #zerohero incentive and just been named Europe’s Leading Entertainment and Dining Resort in the World Travel Awards 2019: The Kempinski Bahia. This hotel has also received several awards for their subtropical gardens and I’d heard a lot
about the Spiller Beach Club so yes, expectations were high. The price for the day there also seemed high, until you start to put value to where you are and what you are getting, in comparison to what we’d spend on a normal day out and about anywhere. Now in high season the sunbed was €95, but it included a €50 contribution to lunch at the Spiller restaurant, which covered us well. Everything tasted so very fresh it was noticeable and the service was exquisite from the moment we arrived, lush towels, sumptuous mattresses and loads of lawn for my granddaughter to crawl around safely whilst taking in the incomparable and often breathtaking views of Africa and Gibraltar. It was so nice having the beach so close, feel the breeze, smell the ocean and yet have the tranquillity and safety of the lovely swimming pools.
My next holiday day was to the Ocean Club with the whole family. We didn’t have to pay to go in and we didn’t take a sunbed, but we did all chill out on comfy sofas for hours!!!! The prices were high, eg one gin and tonic (more like half a gin and tonic it was in such a small glass and only half full) cost €19, but we had a great place to chill, again by the ocean, but without being in it. The babies and toddlers with us had as much fun as their young parents who also got to enjoy the glitz, glamour and vibe they associate with Marbella, but again in a safe and controlled environment for the youngsters. We travelled a little further afield to the Reserva de Sotogrande this weekend but with the toll road only costing €3.35 each way it was a short and easy drive. The place blew me away: a ginormous artificial sandy beach that

Yorkshire Linen continues to grow IT was 10 years ago that Steph and Julie recognised there was a real need on the Costa del Sol for good quality linen accompanied by expert customer service. They took a franchise from the UK-based Yorkshire Linen operation and opened their shop on the Mijas Costa in 2008 and have really not looked back. So successful was the venture that five years ago they expanded and opened a bed shop (Beds and More) next door to their existing premises and then added a further two shops on the prestigious Marbella Golden Mile in 2016. The sister stores of Yorkshire Linen and Beds and More offer beds, mattresses, headboards, linen, furniture and carpets, where you will be sure to receive invaluable advice and exceptional service. The next stage in the Yorkshire Linen story is
Always great value at Yorkshire Linen.
about to begin as they will no longer trade as a franchise following the closure of the UK parent company. This means the stores are now 100 per cent independent and this August Beds and More Mijas will move into the premises of the original store (one door along) so becoming the ideal one stop shop for all your home or
holiday rental requirements. During July and August, shoppers can take advantage of the Mega Clearance Sale, offering discontinued lines to make way for the arrival of new and exciting ranges. Visit the stores at Avenida Andalucia Naves 11 and 15, Mijas Costa, call 952 197 577 or email info@yorkshire linen.es.

TO the editor and Nicole King, Nicole’s report on losing her car’s number plate is comparable with my wife’s and my experience a few months ago when, while in a queue to join the highway near where we live, a new BMW One-Series had exactly the same Registration Number as our Ford Focus. The driver must have noticed that I had seen the number and when I tried to keep up with him to talk (perhaps) with the driver, he sped off at high speeds, weaving in and out of other cars, he escaped but to me that would indicate that he knew of his ‘crime.’ I made up a letter in Spanish, printed it and took it to the Local Police, advised them and obtained a Crime Report number, and had the copy signed and stamped. At least if we received any fines then we would be covered if the offending car drivers had committed them. One other point regarding being involved in an accident, never apologise especially with witnesses present, and never accept what a police officer writes on the accident form especially if the other driver is Spanish. Do not sign the form if you do not understand what he has written. This possibility definitely exists that the police officer will try to show that you were responsible and I speak from experience. But I used to be a police expert witness in South Africa with the job of investigating accidents and who was to blame and give evidence in the subsequent Court case. So the Guardia Civil Officer’s report was disregarded by the insurance companies. Another, never wear anything in or over your ears while driving, It is against the Law. Brian Deller, Estepona, Malaga
Quintessentially expat DEAR Ed I read with interest that our very own press magnates, Michel and Steven, owners of your fine newspaper were invited to celebrate Her Majesty’s The Queen’s birthday at the British Embassy in Madrid. An event hosted by the British Ambassador himself. The event seemed so quintessentially expat English, a garden party in a foreign place. The question I know all of your readers will be asking is. Did they serve Ferrero-Rocher? Lesley Reed

Same plate problem What’s the attraction? DEAR Ed So Glastonbury went ahead (ended June 30) and the temperature went into the 30’s. Now it is a few years since I went to a pop-festival (indeed are they still even called that?) and let’s just say that unless the hygiene facilities have undergone a total revolution then the stench must have been unbelievable! Why oh why are these events still popular? Having paid a king’s ransom, the food is atrocious, you camp in a veritable swamp and you get to watch act after second rate act from a distance of a mile, then when the

Barbaric! And new traditions can be made easily by the younger generation who care for these lovely creatures. Cathy Burquest The run should be banned - teasing animals is not funny and do not get me started on the animal abuse ‘Sport’ bullfighting. Linda Miller Cruel and unnecessary. Supported by people who have no thought for the pain and suffering of innocent animals. Selfish people. Jean O’Neill
Police shoot dog dead What a sad state of affairs, sorry to hear of the injuries and hope they recover soon. It’s the owner’s fault, I hope he gets an appropriate punishment for allowing this to happen. The dogs will no doubt be put down... Sian Foster
THE San Fermin Running of the Bulls festival takes place in Navarra’s Pamplona this week, with calls to end it and other similar fiestas as strong as ever. Celebrations to open San Fermin began on Saturday before the runs started on Sunday. It will continue until this Sunday when the fiesta closes, with thousands expected to attend. The festival already claimed its first casualties early on this week. Three, two US citizens and one Spanish runner, were gored at the weekend and at least one needed surgery, according to emergency services. San Fermin has claimed the lives of at least 16 people since records began in 1910. Amidst reports of injuries being inflicted on runners, it can be tempting to overlook the suffering endured by animals forced to take part in the spectacle. The debate on San Fermin and bullfights in general is alive and well in Spain. The country continues to wrestle with whether to ditch the sport or retain what some see as a fundamental feature of Spanish culture. Activists AnimaNaturales and PETA staged protests against San Fermin in Pamplona on Friday. Those came as PACMA launched a campaign to stop the use of calves in bercerradas bullfights across the country. The Balearic Islands, Canary Islands and Cataluña have all tried to ban bullfighting altogether. As opposition gathers momentum, Spain may now have to consider calling time on San Fermin and other bull-related spectacles.

Babies saved from a car Why are the parents not being taken to task with legalities. Absolutely mindless action for any adult who loves children. Debbie Harrison
When rape isn’t rape I think on this subject Spain still lives in the dark ages. Eleni Lolkema No, rape is rape, against a woman’s wishes. No means No. Rape is always fear and intimidation whether it’s actual or inferred. Vivienne Mallinder Fighting back is not a good option, sometimes that is what gets you killed. When there is a gang of them that in itself is violent and intimidating. If you have been given a date rape drug that makes you passive and unable to fight back it is still rape. Sometimes shutting down is the only way to survive. If you are underage it is always rape as you are not of age to give consent. Katrina Edbrooke

YOUR STARS ‘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.’
FOR NEXT 7 DAYS AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) Don't allow an open-ended offer to muddle your mind. There is no need for an immediate decision and this may be too soon for a positive move. A sense of urgency may be put down to practical reasons when, in fact, it is no such thing. A feeling of insecurity is more likely to be the trigger to uncertainty.
PISCES (February 20 - March 20) Are things going swimmingly? Good. Maybe you had forgotten how to have real fun. Remember when you were a child? Life was so simple. Relax and be that child again. If some old fogey accuses you of being silly, feel sorry for them.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20) Awkward situations usually bring out the best in you and this week proves that. In the longer term, you will be grateful to those making things difficult now.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) Get out in the fresh air as much as possible and be kind to your body. You may have neglected yourself because you have been such a busy bee of late. What about a trip to the seaside or a walk in the hills? Maybe a trip to the local cocktail bar is more your style! Whatever puts a spring in your step will be good.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) A fleeting meeting stirs feelings that you thought were dead. This could be good if it reminds you of how life can be, or bad if it makes you think of missed opportunities. It is never too late to make a fresh start. Why not go on that painting holiday or stamp-collecting weekend? Pole dancing anyone?
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) Someone really has rattled your tree, but try to refrain from throwing coconuts on their head. It is much more effective to be charming and get them confused.
LEO (July 24 - August 23) Are you feeling that you have
been dealt a rough hand? Consider this: there are some who are not dealt a hand at all. Many are missing those few cards that mean they are never really in with a chance. Instead of lurking on the shady side, walk out into the sun. You will soon see the bright side.
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) A chance remark opens a can of worms. Trying to get them back in could turn out t o b e v e r y m e s s y. We a l l open our mouth and put our foot in it sometime. However, over-reacting won't help. Yo u w i l l n e e d h e l p w i t h something this week.

LIBRA (September 24 - October 23)
Saturday July 6
Someone who is usually quite the opposite to you will s u r p r i s e w i t h a n o ff e r. A l though you are naturally suspicious, give them the benefit of the doubt. Leopards do not change their spots but they are capable of behaving for the bigger good. .
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) An intimate meeting is less exciting than anticipated. This should not bother you because time could yet change that. You need to be in the right place at the right time, so don't give up hope, just have a little patience. A change of plans will be more beneficial than irksome, at least in the longer term.

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) The goat in you is keen to find pastures new. It isn't a nibble that is needed at the moment, but a feast. Accepting anything less would be a mistake because someone is watching your reaction to an offer. If you feel unsure of your worth, then ask a few trusted friends. It is so hard to see ourselves. Heed their words.

While counting your pennies, also count your blessings. Money can be a big problem or merely an irritation but the lack of it must be kept in perspective. You are right to think twice about accepting something that seems to be for nothing.

JOURNALIST Martin Scarsden has just arrived in Riversend to cover the oneyear anniversary of a massacre which saw a young priest open fire on his congregation, killing five. While staying in the isolated town the journalist speaks to locals to find out more about the day of the killing. But he soon finds their stories do not fit with traditional telling of the crime. While pondering their accounts two bodies of backpackers who went missing around the time of the massacre are found in scrublands outside the town. Attention turns to Riversend once again and to Martin who finds himself caught up in the ensuing media storm while working on his own investigation. The journalist begins relentlessly looking for the truth while powerful forces in the Australian outback town try to stop him in Chris Hammer’s Scrublands.

JORIS PLU DOES this seem familiar? Talking to yourself, saying, I wish it was quiet around me at this very moment. Silence. No sound at all. For a moment, por favor. You just want to hear nothing or maybe just the waves of the sea, some birds singing softly or the wind blowing. Or not even that. There is so much noise in our life these days and it feels like it is increasing all the time. And not only during the day, even at night, while we are supposed to sleep. When we need to have complete silence. The time that our mind should be able to rest, that our battery could reload. But no, there is always interference. So how can we stop this or what can we do about it? Besides running around with earplugs all the time. A few months ago, there was a woman who went searching for the

Silence… a real gift to you
SILENCE: It really is golden. most silent place on earth. It was on social media. She looked around not too far from her hometown. And she thought at first that it would be an easy task. That she would soon find that unique spot
where she could enjoy peace of mind. Silence. Of course, she found quiet places. But never quiet enough. There was always somewhere some kind of sound to hear. A car far away or a plane or ani-
mals. She started to think that a real silent place on earth did not exist any more. There are no completely silent spots on this planet any more was her reaction, her belief. And maybe she is right. So what about you now? Even with all the noise around you, where do you find peace of mind, which is the most silent place for you? Do you make enough time for yourself, your family, in quiet surroundings? If so that would be wonderful because our brain needs the time and place to reset, to calm down, to rest. If not and you feel you need it, then take some time now and think where you could find the most silent place for you. Which is, of course, different for all of us. Look at your calendar and make an appointment with yourself to go to that place or to go search for it. If you find it, enjoy it. Visit your
special spot more and more. And if you want to share it please do so. Would be great. Like they say on social media - sharing is caring. So now you have found your place and been visiting it for some time. Very soon afterwards you will see the difference in your own behaviour. You will be much calmer. You will be able to think clearer. Even find answers to questions you struggled with for some time. Silence will also give your body and mind a very healthy power up. Is this not worth it?

FROM a very early age we are all taught how important it is to look after our teeth, as not only do they play an important part in our body’s health, they can also make us look good. Children are encouraged to brush long and well in order to ensure that once their baby teeth have fallen out that they look after this important part of the body. Regular check-ups are a must but sometimes as we get older some of us tend to neglect them and need assistance from highly trained professionals to either correct a painful situation or find a cosmetic solution to a problem. Clinica Dental Ortodent is ideally based in Fuengirola and under the management of the highly qualified Raul Martinez, the team offers a personal service to clients who travel to the surgery from Torremolinos, Benalmadena, Mijas and even Marbella. This is a practice that really cares in more ways than one and wants to treat everyone as not just a patient, but part of a family environment which looks after the youngest and the oldest.

rience, the multi-disciplinary team are constantly updating their knowledge as new techniques are created
and they offer a service using the most up-to- date dental equipment. In Ortodent they endeavour to create the ideal solution for any problem that a patient may have by adapting to the needs and situations of each individual. Their aim is to make a precise diagnosis and then perform the treatment as quickly and effectively as possible. There are regular special offers with discounts to customers for some of the more time consuming treatments such as dental implants, teeth whitening and brackets and at the moment whilst their website is being updated,

Swimming advice A HOT Spanish day, what can be better than a nice cooling dip in the pool or sea. Great, but it is important to follow the rules and stay healthy and safe: • Swim in designated areas, supervised by lifeguards and obey the warning signs and flags, that indicate where and
whether it is safe to swim, particularly when swimming in the sea. • Stay out of the water when you are very tired, very cold, or overheated. • Always swim with someone else nearby; never alone. • Never leave a young child unattended near water and do not trust a child’s life to another child. • Have young children or inexperienced swimmers wear a life vest around water. • Maintain constant supervision of both children and adult swimmers. • Make sure everyone in your family learns to swim well. Courses are fun, inexpensive and could save a life. • If you have a pool, secure it with appropriate barriers. Many children who drown in home pools were out of sight for less than five minutes and in the care of one or both parents at the time. • Swim a safe distance away from diving boards and slides. Never swim under them. • If a child is missing, check the water first. Seconds count in cases of drowning.

ACL issues are common in many athletes, professional or keen amateur sudden twisting, over extension, falls, a bad landing or sudden stops... these can all cause ligament injuries. But only one in three patients return to their sport! A shocking and often unnecessary statistic. What is the ACL? The ACL is the anterior cruciate ligament and connects the thigh bone to the shin bone in the knee. It is one of four key sets of ligaments in the knee, the fibrous connective tissue that joins bones together in a joint. The others are: • The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is the second set of ligaments connecting the thigh bone to the shin bone. • The lateral collateral ligament (LCL) connects the thigh bone to the fibula, the smaller bone on the outside of the lower leg. • The medial collateral ligament

ACL problems - the quickest way back to your sport
LIGAMENT INJURIES: An early return to sport can cause further damage. (MCL) also connects the thigh bone to the shin bone on the inside of the knee. Should I have surgery? The honest answer is - it doesn’t matter. The most recent research on recovery rates shows no difference between those patients who opted for surgery and those who chose to just do physiotherapy and rehabilitation.
I double checked these results as I had always been taught that for severe tears the best route was surgery (combined with physio obviously!). Nope, regardless of severity of ligament injury there was no difference. So what does make a difference? Speed: Get treatment as quickly as possible. Ligaments are typically slow to
heal. They need lots of support while they are doing it as they don’t have a great blood supply, so this means it takes time for the ‘good stuff’ to get in. I’ve found that combining MRT with Dr D K Shelbourne’s Accelerated Rehabilitation programme can reduce recovery time to weeks as opposed to the usual months. Support: Correct support puts the least strain on the ligaments while they are healing. Training: Ligaments give masses of proprioceptive feedback - telling your brain where your knee is in space, how bent / straight it is, how to move and respond to other information. If the ligament gets stretched/damaged this information gets ‘fuzzy,’ so your brain is less sure of where your knee is and is much slower to react to that information. This lack of brain/ knee connection can lead to further in-
jury or affect your return to sport. You have to retrain and support the proprioception process. Trust me, it’s not as space age as it sounds, there are great exercise protocols that do this, but you must be educated and supported. Warm up/cool down: The least glamourous and most ignored part of any exercise! But numerous studies have shown that a proper warm up reduces injury. And no, some light stretching is NOT a warm up. You have to actually get WARM, get the blood pumping. Otherwise it will have no benefit at all. Managing your return: An overly early return to sport can cause further damage and bravado often causes more harm! Your therapist must communicate with your sports coach to make sure your programme is correctly managed and prevent recurrence.

Look your best in summer THE heat and the summer sun needs special consideration on your beauty regime. Here is some advice to make sure you stay looking your best and indeed remain healthy during the heat of the day: 1. Use a high quality sunscreen and you should normally go for a protection factor of at least 30, preferably 50. Apply the sunscreen at least 30 minutes before you go out in the sun, so that it has time to soak into your skin. 2. The strong summer sun can also harm your hair. The hot and humid conditions can cause your scalp to sweat. Shampooing daily can be harmful. The best way to protect your hair is to use a protective hair mask at least once a week. 3. Along with a protective hair
mask, you should also invest in hairspray. Hair tends to become frizzy and unruly in summer and the best way to keep your hair looking fresh and shiny is to use hairspray. 4. Maintain the pH balance of your skin with glycerine-rich facial water. This will nourish your skin and keep it soft and supple. 5. Summer is also a time of dirt and grime in the air. A face wash is a handy thing to keep in your bag. The lotion will help you to keep your skin clean 6. It is very common to have chapped and dry lips in summer. This is because the lips are the thinnest and tend to get dry easily. Make it a point to carry a sun-protecting lip balm and apply it before you head out. 7. Consider using an anti-deodorant, rather than an antiperspirant. You need
to perspire in the heat, this is the body’s natural way of cooling your body down and stopping this action could cause your body to overheat and for you to develop heatstroke 8. It is common to sweat in summer. Also, the summer dust and environmental damage can make your skin dull. Use a suitable scrub to cleanse your body of the dirt and grime. 9. Make sure you stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water and avoid excess alcohol. This should be an essential part of your health and beauty regime at any time of year, but obviously is even more important in the heat. 10. Invest in a good moisturising facial once a week. It will help to nourish dry skin and also keep it healthy. So we hope you look your best and enjoy the summer.
STAY HEALTHY: And look your best.

But he is not the only rock star I have cooked for, there have been many including Chris Martin, Keane, the Killers and Bob Geldorf to name just a few! In 2009 I launched the first Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, called Yas Marina. I headed up the hosp i t a l i t y. St a r s lik e B ey o n ce a n d Aerosmith flew in to headline performing at Yas Marina for three days of Formula 1 and world class music. Ferrari World was not finished (where it was due to be held), but plan B was to use the main site which was huge and we had to pack in mobile units offering basic food like burgers etc for the crowds. There were also some VIP rooms which I
catered for. In the VIP rooms was Bernie Ecclestone, the heads of Formula 1 management and many previous F1 drivers. I was looking after them all. They asked me to cook for the VIP bands as they didn’t want to give them the burgers! I met up with Beyonce who was delightful in every way, very grounded and we really got on, the next day I was meeting Steven Tyler from Aerosmith. I asked him what they would like to eat over the next few days. “Nothing much,” th e y s a id, “ c offe e , c iga re tte s a nd s ome chocolate!” “What is your favourite food?” I asked Steve, “I love Italian” he said. In the 70’s I was trained at the Savoy Hotel L o n don by the C he f le ge nd Silvino Trompetto who was head chef from the 60’s up to 1980. He was Italian but British bred and held th e title of the w orld’s be s t c he f a t one stage.

sion of it at The Little Geranium. In the 90’s I had become friends with Rick Wakeman, one of the world’s top keyboa rd pla ye rs a nd c omp oser s who had worked with Bowie, Elton John, T Rex and
Cat Stevens. Rick’s progressive rock band was called Yes. I was doing a Ready Steady Cook gig on the Isle of Man where he lived, it was at his chi l dr en’s school and I was com pet i ng against Chef Kevin Woodford. Rick loved pasta and asked me to show him how to make it. I carefully and correctly showed him each step and so proud I was of the perfect Tagliatelle, I held it up in my hands t o show hi m and he pour ed past a flour all over my head. Rick is a real joker! So back to Abu Dhabi and Aerosmith and I was telling them the story of the flour whilst making them some fantastic Italian dishes in the little kitchen behind their green room. I was laughing about it whilst serving them some squid ink pasta with shellfish and some ravioli filled with lobster. I also served them the amazing beef Tagliata. As I turned to get the special pasta flour that I had bought for the ravioli, it wasn’t there. Steve had grabbed it and poured most of it over my head. “For gods sake,” I said “what is it with you rock stars and pasta flour?!” “It’s Rock and Roll,” Steve said, “just Rock and Roll buddy!”

BARRY DUKE I HAVE a love/hate relationship with Facebook. I love it because it is an invaluable tool for directing traffic to two websites I operate: the atheist site the Freethinker and the humanist Pink Triangle Trust, a UK LGBT charity. But I loathe it because it serves as a conduit for millions of dotty posts by imbeciles sounding off about utterly insignificant things. Or, as Michel Euesden, CEO and founder of Euro Weekly News posted on my Facebook page recently, ‘people don’t half sweat the small stuff!’ She was commenting on an item I posted about an Asda customer in Plymouth who went into meltdown about some garden gnomes that had been decked out in rainbow colours. Such was his rage, the plods had to drag him out of the store. It was a clear-cut case of gnomophobia.
Sweating the small stuff Although people use Facebook to moan about all manner of things, what mainly seems to spark hysterical rants relate to LGBT issues. The most recent example of this can be found among the comments on the FB page of a crazy Christian outfit called the Illinois Family Institute. IFI vented its fury over the fact that Amazon had withdrawn books written by a ‘gay cure’ quack, the late Dr Joseph Nicolosi, a man whose work in ‘curing’ homosexuality left many lives in in tatters, and may well have led to a number of suicides. One comment read: ‘Wow. Just wow. It will only be months before the same pressures will come against those who sell (or distribute) Bibles. Where am I living?’ People ‘sweating the small stuff’ is, of course, not confined to Facebook. Newspapers can’t get enough stories of folk getting a stick up
GARDEN GNOMES: Were decked out in rainbow colours. their bums over inconsequential issues. This inspired some genius to start a hugely entertaining Facebook page called Angry People in Local Papers. One report concerned pensioner Harty Ervine who tore
into Asda because it ran out of his favourite 34p sardines. He told Chronicle Live that he has been left ‘suffering’ after stocks ran out. Then there was this headline on the StokeonTrentLive website: ‘It was so high you
could get lost in it - OAPs call on council to trim grass more often after just two cuts in 2018.’ And from the Evening Telegraph, this headline: ‘Dundee man barricades himself in shed and sleeps
overnight amid spat over allotment plot.’ As I was scrolling through dozens of ‘angry people’ reports it became clear that most folk who blow their gaskets tend to be older men. This from the HuffPost: ‘A recent study out of Oregon State University found that older men who tend to obsess over little, everyday annoyances tend to live shorter lives than those who let things roll off their backs. ‘It’s not the number of hassles that does you in, it’s the perception of them being a big deal that causes problems,’ Carolyn Aldwin, the Director of the Centre for Healthy Ageing Research at OSU, said in the study, ‘Taking things in stride may protect you.’ I’ll bear that in mind the next time I’m on the verge of scurrying around in a blind panic and screaming ‘where the hell have I put my bloody phone NOW!’

CASSANDRA NASH A WEEKLY LOOK - and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene
SO now we know. Pedro Sanchez has fixed the Investiture debate for July 22 and we know that if there’s no overall majority on July 23 - and that’s something we do know, because he won’t have one - there will be a second vote on July 24. If there is enough support and sufficient abstentions, Sanchez will squeak home back to the Moncloa. What we don’t know is where that support is coming from. Podemos supremo Pablo Iglesias could contribute 42 seats if he were so inclined, but his inclination includes ministries and possibly a vice-presidency. We know that neither Sanchez nor the PSOE hierarchy believes that Iglesias is worth it and brings the risk that he will start doing his own thing and play to the gallery. We know Pablo Casado is turning deaf ears to requests to abstain from veteran PP politicos including Mariano Rajoy and Esperanza Aguirre. We know that Albert Rivera will also refuse to abstain despite veter-

Knowns and unknowns an and not-so-veteran Ciudadanos politicos who think he should. That leaves odds and sods including the Catalan pro-independence parties, some of whom are hinting at abstention and regional parties like the PNV. There’s also Bildu, once ETA’s political arm, and whom the Right still like to label as terrorists, although ETA disappeared years ago. But should they all support Sanchez, he will still need Iglesias.
It’s anybody’s guess what will happen in less than two weeks’ time but there’s one thing we do know. If Sanchez doesn’t pull it off, there will be another general election.
Lie back and think of Spain VOX continues to raise its voice and twist Albert Rivera’s arm. If he
wants Vox’s votes to enable the Partido Popular and Ciudadanos to govern in the Madrid Community and Murcia then he must sign up to a threesome that includes Vox. No excuses, no ‘I didn’t want to do it’ or ‘My drink was spiked.’ Instead, Vox wants Rivera’s name on a piece of paper. And Rivera? So far he has resisted but he could always sign, do his duty, then lie back and think of Spain.
End of the beginning IF Spain is subjected to another general election, it will presumably be as hamstrung by some political parties’ red lines and vetoes as the last one. Forget the population, winning an election is no longer a means to an end, but the end in itself instead of a beginning.
Waterloo sunset IT’S been said that Cataluña’s president Quim Torra has done nothing during his first year in office. No budget, no reversals of the cuts imposed years back by CiU, which begat his own party PDeCat, and no discernible government programme. Possibly 50 per cent of Cataluña’s population are attracted to independence, but even they want a government that looks out for them, not an Administration that devotes its time and energies to tending to the needs of Torra’s self-exiled predecessor Carles Puigdemont, his puppet-master in Waterloo. Doesn’t bode well for hypothetical independence or, probably, votes in the next regional election.

We are grateful for any help offered, including donations of food and blan-
kets. Visiting times are from 13.00 to 15.00 and you can always turn up or make an appointment by calling Denise on 669 018 736. Our website is www.ace-charity.org where you can view all the dogs in our care. (93320) ADANA THE ANIMAL SHELTER IN ESTEPONA.

For our riding for the disabled classes, we are also in need of extra helpers. We are nationally registered by the Spanish Ministry of the Interior (164640) but only with your support can we give the equine a voice. If you can just commit to 2 or 3 euros a month it will really help make a difference. You can find us at Lauro Golf Equestrian Centre, Alqueria, Alhaurin de la Torre. Tel. 608 258 950 info@sepeonline.net www.sepeonline.net (93321) SOS ANIMAL REFUGE we have dogs, young and old looking for homes. Some of our dogs have been with us for some time and would love to find a cosy spot to curl up in and a knee on which to rest their heads. If you have room in your heart and home we would love to hear from you. We do not put our dogs to sleep - no matter how old, they are safe with us. For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive. We desperately need items to sell on our market stall to help raise funds and are happy to come and collect. So if you are having a clear-out, please contact us on 605 227 155. If you would like to know more about rehoming, please call 653 257 875.

Latest Nissan Leaf THE latest versions of the highly successful Nissan Leaf family are now available to buy throughout Europe, including the longerrange LEAF e+, building on Leaf ’s status as the bestselling EV in Europe last year. All new Leaf versions come with Nissan’s new NissanConnect infotainment system, with features including Apple CarPlay® and AndroidAuto® allowing for seamless smartphone connectivity. Customers also benefit from an upgraded navigation system, which features TomTom LIVE premium traffic and route optimisation, as well as the inbuilt Online Map Update facility and Chargers Location functionality.
An all-new NissanConnect Services app comes as well with the new Leaf versions. With the app, users can send navigation routes from their smartphone to their car and from their car to their smartphones through the Door-to-Door Navigation facility, enabling an easier transition from navigation, to parking, and to final destination. The Remote Climate Control functionality, finally gives them the option to preset air conditioning or heating while their Leaf is still plugged in to the garage, whilst information and analysis on trips and driving style can also be accessed from their smartphone. The new Leaf also offers a number of different design
options, with a total of 10 body colours and seven two-tone body and roof colour combinations allowing owners to give their Leaf a bold visual presence. Building on the 40 kWh LEAF’s already impressive performance and efficiency, the range-topping LEAF e+ offers even greater all-round driving capability with an upgraded powertrain. The model’s compact 62 kWh battery is both efficient and powerful, with a 25 per cent increase in energy density and 55 per cent boost in energy storage capacity, giving the Leaf e+ a power output of 217 PS and up to 385 km (WLTP) on a combined cycle, on a single charge.
NEW ADDITIONS: Nissan Leaf. Finetuned since the launch of the original Leaf in 2011, an internal thermal management system is also installed in every Leaf, ensuring that fast charging performance is optimised for specific driving conditions. The system also ensures that the quality and longevity of the battery is maximised, giving customers peace of mind and high levels of performance. Featuring multiple innovative driving assistance
technologies, the new Leaf champions Nissan’s vision for Intelligent Driving, with the unique e-Pedal available on all Leafs allowing drivers to start, accelerate and decelerate to a complete stop using only one pedal. Leaf is also equipped with ProPILOT, an advanced driving feature combining assisted steering, acceleration and braking to help the dri-
ver on long commutes and in heavy traffic, both on highways and in single lanes. LEAF is also equipped with ProPILOT Park, which parks the car automatically and with ease. These driver aids are designed to enhance the driver ’s safety, comfort and control on the road. The new Nissan Leaf starts from €35,400, while the range-topping Leaf e+ is available from €45,000.
Toyota and Subaru tie up MODEL: A jointly developed BEV-dedicated platform.
TOYOTA and Subaru (Subaru) have recently disclosed that they have agreed to jointly develop a platform dedicated to battery electric vehicles (BEVs) for mid-
size and large passenger vehicles and to jointly develop a C-segment-class BEV SUV model for sale under each company’s own brand. By combining their respective strengths, such as the all-wheeldrive technologies that Subaru has cultivated over many years and the vehicle electrification technologies that Toyota is employing to bring together the companies to share their aspirations, the two companies intend to take up the challenge of creating attractive products with an economic and ecologically sound appeal that only BEVs can offer. Following this agreement with Toyota, Subaru will now shift its existing BEV development resources to this new joint project. Within this new framework, Subaru will continue its efforts to create an attractive BEV SUV for customers, while improving efficiencies in terms of engineering, development, purchasing, and other areas through the new joint project.

Classic Car Club of Andalucía
Impressive mix of vehicles An American Beauty from 1939. ‘WHAT a marvellous day out and what a lovely crowd of people…’ This was heard from a number of people at the Classic Car Club of Andalucia’s July classic car run and lunch held last Saturday. Very hot weather and clammy conditions had been expected by the Club but someone up there must have been smiling as the weather may not have been perfect for holidaymakers, but it was certainly perfect for a classic car tour! A cool day with a gentle breeze, not totally clear skies but clear enough and bright enough to encourage hoods to be down and the chance to revel in perfect, summer driving conditions. Although many CCCA members are away for the summer there was still an impressive turnout of 35 cars assembled at Venta Barranco, near Ojen, on Saturday morning to enjoy breakfast and a natter whilst CCCA ladies Jenny Binns and Angela Sharp organised the registration process. Club President, Ian Giles, organised this particular event and was ready, spot on time, at 11.00am to deliver a short briefing to all participants as they scanned their roadbooks, ready to make any last minute alterations or corrections and be warned of likely hazards en route. Not that anyone had any problems in this department but the briefing is such a traditional part of the start process ! An impressive mix of vehicles had gathered, all looking resplendent in the morning sunshine. Such cars as the 1953 Packard 8 of Jan Alvemark and David Geddes which had arrived from the USA only a few months ago and been driven from Nerja that morning aroused great interest.
Ian Giles’ Mercedes 280SL Pagoda from 1969.
Ladies in Charge! Jenny Binns and Angela Sharp organising the registration. There was the usual array of Mercedes sports cars from most decades including the fabulous 190SL of Antonio and Barbara Mendoza. The stunning 1969 China blue Pagoda SL of Ian Giles won a lot of attention sat next to the 1980 SL of Trevor Naylor and the 1970’s 380SL of Ted Williams. These Mercedes sports cars make the most amazing, useable classic cars in which to enjoy these events. They are intrinsically reliable, are relatively inexpensive to buy and in good supply. They are comfortable, have easy to use hoods, and, in the case of later cars, are electric. Some of them even have air conditioning and ABS brakes. For anyone wanting to join the world of classic cars these are a
great way to get started. The CCCA has always, since its inception, been a stalwart supporter of getting out and driving classic cars, seeing and enjoying the countryside in likeminded, good company as opposed to parking them somewhere and sitting admiring them! Whilst there is certainly room for this, and even the CCCA does this on rare occasions, it’s all about driving the cars. Any readers considering joining the fun can always contact the club for advice on what cars to buy to facilitate this, but any Mercedes of past decades is a good idea and, usually, not a bad investment. The Club is proud to have members from many countries around the world and their events always have a cos-
Jan Alvemark’s 1953 Packard 8.
Let the fun begin... mopolitan, international feel about them. Saturday’s run had members enjoying themselves from the UK, Ireland, Spain, Mexico, Holland, Belgium, Switzerland, Sweden, the USA, Norway, Hungary, Germany and Morocco. International yes. Impressive - most certainly! More important, all get on so well which makes for a marvellous atmosphere or ‘ambiente’ within the Club. Dieter Schewe and Alex Lifftinger brought along three gorgeous American classics including a fabulous, and huge, 1960’s Ford Pick-up and a real American Ford Hot-Rod. Paul and Beate Kirwin had along their regular, and very pretty, MGB roadster, a car that no classic car group or event would ever be without. A true
1960’s British sports car icon. The Club stretches the envelope of what is acceptable as a classic and so also allows the participation of ‘modern’ classics. There is always lively discussion amongst classic car enthusiasts of what exactly is a ‘modern classic,’ but there is no doubt that such cars as the Jaguar XK and XKR range certainly qualify as such and the club has a lot of them amongst its members. In stark contrast, the event had two Bentley GTs out, another fine example of a modern classic, and the beautiful and hugely popular Morris Minor of Martyn and Sheila Quarterman. The two models parked together, Bentley and Morris, looked both incongruous yet delightful and much appreciat-
ed by all. The green 1960’s Morris Minor has, in fact, been with the club since it started, has done many, many events covering many kilometres and has never failed to finish, always arriving reliably with its younger and quicker cousins often behind it! The route for the day went from Ojen, just above the La Cañada commercial centre, past Monda towards Coin, by-passing the town on the fast A-355 to join the A-357 to the first coffee stop at La Herradura on the A-354 in Zalea. After coffee, crews enjoyed a fast but scenic road towards Casarabonela, turning off before there to cut over to Alozaina and on past Tolox towards Coin. The route by-passed Coin, near the old Eldorado film studios, before a well deserved Cava stop at Barranco Blanco on the outskirts of Alhaurin in the direction of Mijas. This is always a good time to get together, compare notes, swap stories and enjoy the company before heading off to lunch which, on this occasion, was near La Cala at the excellent El Jinete restaurante in La Cala Hills. The lunch here was absolutely first class, as was the service, and was a credit to Karen and Alex who were running it all, looking after hot and hungry crews with great aplomb and efficiency! All crews made it to the finish and all had, without exception, thoroughly enjoyed the day out. The Club has already had its monthly dinner at El Chaparral for July but will still continue
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.

Ron Garrood MIJAS GOLF is one of the most commercial golf resorts on the Costa del Sol, with two walkable courses, Los Olivos and Los Lagos. Last week I played Los Olivos and it was a real pleasure and a course not to be missed as the tees, fairways and greens are in excellent condition. Los Olivos opened in 1984 and was refurbished by Cabell Robinson during the season 2000 - 2001, following Trent Jones’ original design concept.

Ten in a row for Marquez IT is hard enough to beat Marc Marquez anywhere. At Germany’s Sachsenring it is near enough impossible. The Spanish rider led from pole to win the MotoGP on the track - the 10th time in succession he has won there in all competitions. This is a period of dominance at one track unprecedented in the modern era. The day had started not too well for fans and riders alike, with the gloomy weather meaning Warm Up had limited running time. But Marc Marquez made the most of it for Repsol Honda, setting the fastest time. When it came to the race, Marquez made his customary strong start to lead through Turn One as the lights went out for the 30lap German GP. Back-to-back race lap records on lap four and five, a 1’21.228 on lap five his fastest lap, signalled that Marquez was not interested

in a battling victory, the new race lap record helping him to stretch his lead to over half a second. From here there was no looking back as the reigning World Champion steadily built his lead to cross the line 4.5 seconds clear of second place for the 75th victory of his Grand Prix career and his 49th win in the premier class. The victory is Marquez’s seventh visit to the top step of the podium in the premier class at the German track, equalling Valentino Rossi’s

Sensational Rahm back in top 10 SPAIN’S Jon Rahm is back in the World’s top 10 and leading the European Tour’s Race to Dubai after winning the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open. The 24-year-old secured a record third Rolex Series title at Lahinch Golf Club, County Clare after coming into the weekend seven shots off the pace. Two sensational rounds of 64 and 62 to reach a tournament total of 16 under par were enough for a two-stroke triumph over Bernd Wiesberger and Andy Sullivan. “I keep saying I love this tournament, country, the people and I feel like I’m at home every time I play in the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open,” said Rahm, who seals his spot in the DP World Tour Championship after jumping from 15th to the top of the Race to Dubai Rankings on 2,225.1 points for the season. “My game was in great form, I just struggled to hole the putts the first
two days, but the weekend was the complete opposite. I had putts that were rolling in from everywhere! I knew I had to do something special today and my target number was to get to 15 under, so to get to 16 under is even better. “Me and my caddy Adam Hayes did a lot of hard work over the weekend to polish out the mistakes of the first two days and I’m very excited to add my name to this special trophy for the second time.” Wiesberger’s share of second spot saw him make significant strides on the Rankings with the Austrian jumping from 21st to seventh on the Rankings with 1,571.3 points. Sullivan also made an impressive climb up the Rankings with his best result of the season as the Englishman made his way up to 22nd from 88th on 954.9 points. Meanwhile, Eddie Pepperell,
Marquez now heads into the summer break with 185 World Championship points, 58 ahead of second placed Dovizioso. The win also increases Honda’s lead in the Constructor Championship to 34 points over Ducati. Speaking after the race, Marquez said: “It was a perfect strategy. But I didn’t have a perfect start as I ran a little deep at Turn One. After that my plan was two slow laps to warm the front tyre well and then
push, and it’s exactly what I did. Step by step I opened the gap and followed the plan as I needed to. Once the gap was at three seconds I stayed there and saved the tyre and enjoyed riding. “It’s a great feeling to win here again and to enter the summer break in this way. Congratulations also to my brother for his win today, it’s always really nice to win together! I want to say thank you to the Repsol Honda Team for their work in this race and the first half of the season.”

SPORT By Dilip Kuner SPAIN has become the first country since the Soviet Union in 1991 to successfully defend the FIBA Women’s EuroBasket title. Their defeat of France in Belgrade was their fourth title and their third in the last four editions of the tournament. The French must be getting sick of the sight of the Spanish having lost to them in the finals of 1993, 2013, 2017 and now 2019. It was also France’s fourth straight silver medal. The Spanish team ran out 86-66 winners on the night, starting hot and never letting the French get a toe-hold in the match. Marta Xargay led the way brilliantly with 23 points and shooting five triples. Laura Gil also came close to a double-double with nine points and 10 rebounds. Astou Ndour had cause for double celebration, being crowned TISSOT MVP, while she was joined in the All-Star Five by Xargay. “What we are doing is amazing since it was the Soviet Union who last won two titles in a row a very long time ago,” said Spanish veteran, Laia Palau. “The way that we won was not expected. But I feel that after Russia in the QuarterFinals and the tough game against Serbia in the SemiFinals, we went into the final with a flow. We played without pressure and enjoyed the game. I am so proud,” she added.

MCLAREN F1 has confirmed that Spanish driver Carlos Sainz and British teammate Lando Norris will retain their drives for the 2020 season. Andreas Seidl, Team Principal, McLaren Racing said: “This announcement provides the team with the continuity to keep pushing forward. The performance of both Carlos and Lando have
Head coach Lucas Mondelo commented: “We felt free after the game against Serbia in the Semi-Finals. We had a tough year after the FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup, but we felt freedom to play this final and to enjoy it. There was a lot of pressure at home in Tenerife in our last tournament when we worked to get the bronze medal. “As we did in the Czech Republic in 2017, we came into the final round and played our best basketball in the last part of the competition and this time especially in the final. I think that we are a great example that this is a team sport. After a long time I get surprised every day by what my players achieve and the work that they do. I thank all the players and the staff.” Earlier in the day, Serbia thrilled the home crowd to take the bronze medal in front of a large and passionate crowd. They overwhelmed Great Britain 81-55 as Sonja Petrovic claimed a double-double of 14 points and 13 rebounds. She earned a place in the All-Star Five along with Ndour and Xargay, with spots also taken by Sandrine Gruda of France and Temi Fagbenle of Great Britain, who finished as the leading scorer in the tournament with 20.9 points per game. Meanwhile Spain, France, Serbia, Great Britain, Sweden and Belgium will also represent Europe in next year’s FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournaments.

Their feedback has enabled our engineers to develop the MCL34 and look ahead to the MCL35. “Carlos has played a key role in developing the car using his experience, while Lando has got up to speed with the demands of Formula 1 incredibly quickly and is growing in confidence every weekend.”
