WELCOME BACK By Damon Mitchell
EURO WEEKLY NEWS visited Malaga airport yesterday morning, Wednesday July 1, to welcome British holidaymakers back to Spain! We are pleased to report that every single person getting off flights or picking people up from the airport were following the set safety and sanitary measures. From children through teens, whole families, adults and the elderly, every one of them was wearing a mask. It was a proud moment to see that they were respecting the country’s wishes and keeping everybody safe. Firstly, we would like to thank those people for putting their trust in the health guidelines and also to congratulate them on
Family’s tearful reunion.
Groups young and old wearing face masks. setting such a great example. There were some lovely shows of affection from families who had been kept from each other through the isolation, lots of hugs and tears.
Jim and Gill Lindsay travelling to their new home in Mijas Costa. Upon speaking to Ryanair passengers getting off the first flight arriving from Manchester Air-
port we found that all protocols for safety had been followed on board and in the airports. Hand sanitiser
was used, people respected each other’s space, all the relevant health check forms were completed and they were all extremely looking forward to taking advantage of Spain’s glorious weather and lifestyle. So, it just goes to show, some of us may be scared just now or wary of what visitors can bring or take to this country. We are all on the same side, we are all staying safe and we will ALL get through this together. Have a fantastic holiday from all at Euro Weekly News.

#VIVECOSTADELSOL TOURIST offices, Councils and Hospitality Groups have been waiting with bated breath to see how potential overseas visitors would react to the opening of borders and the possibility of flying to Spain. The good news is that according to Turismo Costa del Sol, the #ViveCostaDelSol campaign which started less than two weeks ago has already attracted 14 million views and 3,000 direct bookings have been received on the site. This, when coupled with information from the same source that flight searches for travel from the UK to Malaga Airport has increased by 177 per cent whilst enquiries from other European countries are up by 70
COSTA DEL SOL: The holiday destination.
per cent shows that the Costa del Sol is well and truly back on the tourist map! With so many people out of work during the lockdown, this is very positive news for the local economy as tourists require services
from hotels, bars, restaurants and with the emergence of both the Marenostrum Festival in Fuengirola and Starlite in Marbella, albeit in reduced format, there will be even more work available.
Research from Turismo Costa del Sol indicates that although airlines have restricted and rolled up flights, there are still 2.84 million seats likely to be available for travellers to Malaga Airport during July, August and
September. With new and upgraded hotels, plenty of golf courses and special offers, whilst this summer may not be the best on record, it certainly looks as if the Costa del Sol will be a top tourist hot spot.
SHOPS will open on Sundays and holidays throughout the summer. Stores in Malaga, Benalmadena, Estepona, Fuengirola, Manilva, Nerja, Marbella, Mijas, Rincon de la Victoria and Torremolinos are now opening their doors seven days a week until September 15 to “take advantage of an influx of tourists.” Of all the municipalities, the only one with restrictions is the capital, where only businesses in the Historical Centre, in the port area (including Pier One) and in the Cruz de Humil-

Safe Andalucia ALL of Fuengirola’s beaches have been awarded the ‘Safe Andalucia’ (Andalucia Segura) label which verifies its safety for residents and tourists to enjoy. This certificate aims to further solidify Fuengirola as a safe and high-quality tourist destination. The official ceremony for this certification with the mayor of Fuengirola, Ana Mula, and the Tourism delegate for the Junta de Andalucia has taken place today on Las Gaviotas beach in Los Boliches. All of Fuengirola’s beaches from Carvajal to Las Gaviotas up to El Castillo have been awarded this seal of approval which “guarantees bathers that they can bathe safely.” Mula has noted that this seal “is the result of a constant effort made by the government team to maintain the city” as a safe destination with “the best conditions” for “neighbours and visitors.” She has also made an appeal to beachgoers and hopes they maintain their “individual responsibility” since the town hall has already done their part. The Fuengirola Town Hall has reinforced “cleaning, security and surveillance measures throughout the coast” and boasts of “153 professionals who watch over the safety of visitors.”
Sunday opening ladero open shopping centre will be able to open. And El Corte Inglés and the shopping centres Larios Centro, Vialia, Malaga Plaza, Plaza Mayor, McArthurGlen Designer Outlet and Rosaleda will have to close on regional holidays Sunday July 5, Saturday, August 15 and Sunday, September 6. The news will be a huge relief to businesses forced to close for more than two months and missed out on sales as a result of the
coronavirus pandemic. According to a study by the user organisation OCU, 61 per cent of shoppers are expected to spend an average of €99 during this summer period. Some 44 per cent of consumers are likely to spend more or less the same as last year and just over half, 53 per cent, intend to watch the pennies more stringently than they did in 2019. Only 3 per cent said they will be spending more.
LGBTQ Friendly Town DESPITE the fact that it had to cancel the planned Sixth Pride Festival due to the lockdown, the Torremolinos Council made a special effort to celebrate International Pride Day on Sunday June 28. Members of the PSOE led council stood with the Rainbow Flag and confirmed that Torremolinos is proud
of the fact that it is so LGBTQ friendly and believes in welcoming people to the town regardless of race, colour or sexual orientation. Whilst many towns on the Costa del Sol are committed to equality, it is generally believed that Pride in Torremolinos is one of the most important festivals of its type in Spain.

WILDFIRE SEASON IN SPAIN: SUMMER means wildfire season in Spain. Andalucia has registered several important blazes in just the last 10 days, one fire in mountains just behind popular Costa Almeria holiday resort Mojacar burning its way through nearly more than 180 hectares in less than 24 hours. And as hot air from the Sahara pushes up temperatures this week, and weather forecasters predict another heatwave will start sweeping across much of the south and centre of the country by the weekend, already tinder dry conditions in much of the country mean wildfires are a real risk. Just the smallest spark at this time of year can set off a fire which in no time at all is blazing out of control. It could be a natural phenom-

Café owner on BBC1 THE owner of popular café/bar Snack Attack in La Cala de Mijas, Rob Owen appeared on BBC1 News to talk about what British tourists might expect once they are allowed back into Spain. He gave a very constructive response, simply explaining how the new normality affected the catering industry and despite suggestions that he would have to keep an eye on British drinkers, he explained how his staff were trained to cope with both social distancing and over excited visitors. It would appear that the presenters of the news programme didn’t understand that his property is not a traditional front-line British bar, but is an establishment primarily serving food with a bar area. A good piece of positive promotion for the Costa del Sol. Credit: Marbella Council

Support taxi drivers A GROUP on Social Media is reminding residents of Marbella of the work that local taxi drivers did during the lockdown and encouraging people to support them now by taking cabs whenever possible. They lost out financially during the pandemic but still carried on, taking the elderly to hospital as well as transferring health workers at little or no cost. Food and masks were delivered to those in need and many of the drivers dressed up as clowns and wished happy birthday to children unable to get out to celebrate. Summer is inevitably the best time for taxi drivers with plenty of tourists to ferry around, but now the summer season will be much shorter than usual whilst the number of arrivals is likely to be fewer than in the past.
ABOUT 10 years ago, two ladies got together to knit clothes and blankets for the premature baby unit in Malaga City. Word got around and they formed knit and natter and the much-expanded group is still going strong, meeting twice a week in Fuengirola until the lockdown. Nothing daunted, the ladies have been knitting and crocheting at home and as soon as they can, plan to get back to the Heladeria Gelato e Mare on the Paseo Maritimo in Los Boliches on Monday and Wednesday mornings from 11am until 1pm. In the meantime, they have been raising funds and have donated €250 to each of five charities, La Cala de Mijas Lions, Red Madre, Cudeca, Age Care and Age Concern as well as €450 to homeless charity Adintre. Anyone is welcome to join as it is a great way of making new friends as well as doing something to help the community.
Spelling mistake WHILST it is very generous of the Marbella Council to translate advice into English, it might have helped if they had employed a proofreader. At least the image itself

COSTA WOMEN are pleased to announce the relaunch of www.spainexpo.org an online platform designed to help people moving to Spain. Of the many who move to Spain, some have great success while others learn the hard way that Spain has differences in laws, language, costs and culture. From the experience of thousands of Costa Women moving to Spain, Costa Women realised that research is the key to a successful move and integration. In 2018 Costa Women staged ‘SpainExpo’ as a one-week online conference. It was so successful that it has been redesigned and developed to meet the need for independent research and guidance on moving to Spain. SpainExpo informs and

Walking Football update FROM Nerja to Viñuela and the Costa del Sol to Benahavis in the south, the Walking Football Clubs go in search of a patch of green grass to play football. Only Calahonda and Smiles have been lucky in that they play at the Finca Naundrup in Calahonda which is privately owned. The sessions there have gone well with Calahonda having a record 26 attending recently which meant playing two games across the pitch. There are a number of preseason friendlies to allow play-
ers to get acclimatised as after the 11 week lockdown spent indoors and coming out to play in summer heat takes getting used to. The Walking Football Clubs handed €1,200 to Michelle Ferreti towards her good friend Della’s Fund towards buying a van which would allow access to her wheelchair making it easier for attending hospital appointments and outings with the family. Added to the €900 Michelle earned from her 75-day exercise/fast this makes a grand total of €2,100 to Della’s fund.

RESIDENTS in San Pedro Alcantara are literally taking to the streets to complain about the lack of action in the on/off affair of the new Health Centre in the town. The old centre is an unpleasant building which looks as if it would fit into a third world scenario and it has unfortunately suffered from violence on more than one occasion although the staff who work there are dedicated and do their best under difficult circumstances.
Steals from friend’s mum
A 31-YEAR-OLD man has been arrested in Fuengirola after shamelessly stealing jewellery from his friend’s mother whilst he helped them move to a new house. The combined worth of the jewellery amounts to around €800 and the man is now being investigated for theft. He allegedly took advantage of the fact that they were moving to a new house in order to steal the gold pieces of jewellery. The woman has, thankfully, had all of her jewellery returned after police found the stolen goods had been sold at a pawn shop. Strangely enough, the owner of the pawnshop was a friend of the family, specifically the victim’s son. The criminal was a Cuban national, he was located and detained as the person responsible for the theft. The recovered goods have been delivered to their owner.
So frustrated are residents with the Marbella Council and the Junta de Andalucia that they have formed their own pressure group and have circulated special posters saying San Pedro Quiere Su Centro de Salud (San Pedro wants its Health Centre). These are now being displayed in a number of shops around the town and their Facebook page which has only been in existence since June 20 carries pictures of 130 people either holding the poster or placing it in their shops.

Estepona residents who are registered with the council are allowed two free entry tickets a year which can be collected by showing their ID card at the town hall offices in the Puertosol building or at the old town hall, located in the Blas Infante square. The Orchid House, which opened in March 2015, is divided into two levels which are at different heights and separated by a bamboo forest. The building has three glass-covered domes that have become landmarks in the town and the main display area houses dozens of species of orchids and a large waterfall.

Ratatouille roams free
PEST CONTROL: The city’s rat problem may become a public health issue.
THE PSOE party in Malaga demands that the mayor, Francisco de la Torre, tackles the city’s rat problem by increasing pest control before it becomes a public health problem. Daniel Pérez, the spokesperson for the socialist party in Malaga, stated that the vermin and insect control service only has four operators for the city’s 11 districts, which he says is not enough as residents complain of rats “roaming free” and entering people’s homes in search of food. The areas where rat colonies have increased include Carretera de Cádiz, El
Palo, Campanillas, and Churriana, but the numbers of rats in the city centre has also gone up, as the rodents seem to have become more confident during the lockdown due to the reduction of tourists and passers-by. PSOE claims that the City Council continuously ignores the issue and denies that Malaga has a rodent problem. When the PP party took control of the city 25 years ago, the pest control service was outsourced, having previously been managed by the council. Since then, Pérez believes, the service has declined to the state it is in today.

Play Spot the Spaniard NOW the land border between Spain and Gibraltar is open to all, visitors are starting to return, and there is one huge difference between those who live in Gibraltar and those who visit from Spain. With few exceptions, Spaniards and expatriates living in Spain have become acclimatised to wearing masks whenever in areas where others are present. In Gibraltar however, the advice has been to
preserve social distancing wherever possible but do not wear masks as they don’t actually help combat Covid-19. It is now interesting to spot the Spaniard in supermarkets as they stand out like sore thumbs as they wear their masks whilst surrounded by Gibraltarians who don’t. Both sets of people are acting in accordance with their government’s advice, but the contrast is quite striking.
PERRERA LOS BARRIOS is a busy Council Pound and Animal Shelter, in San Roque, Cadiz.

These shops are open six days a week and can be found on Facebook page SSD CHARITY SHOP DUQUESA. The shelter is currently struggling as resources are always stretched to their limit, as every dog is given an opportunity here. Due to the health crisis, the charity is suffering, and funds are very low. The shops had to close for several weeks and there have been no fundraisers for months.

Invaded by squatters A GROUP of squatters has taken over a nurse’s home in Barcelona after she was out working a long shift during the coronavirus health crisis. The victim of this latest squatter debacle is Pilar, a 62year-old nurse, who like all health professionals, has been forced to work extremely long shifts during the health crisis. During one of her shifts, she returned to her home only to find that it had been invaded by squatters whilst she was out saving lives. In a heartfelt let-
ter, the nurse informs that her only home has been invaded by squatters. She asked readers if they knew that, once squatters enter your home, it doesn’t matter if it hasn’t even been left alone for 24 hours, or if it’s your day-to-day address. Pilar feels abandoned by the institutions which are meant to protect her, such as the ‘police or the legal system’ and that despite all the applauses to the medics, she is disheartened to know that this is how she is treated.
Careless owner
THE owner of a small Yorkshire terrier has been reported for animal abuse after she left her puppy locked in the car for over four hours in 40-degree weather. The vehicle was parked in direct sunlight with no ventilation whatsoever. According to the Emergency Services, a neighbour in an area of Sevilla alerted authorities about the presence of a small dog locked inside a vehicle. Local Police proceeded to break a window of the car in order to rescue the little Yorkshire terrier who was in a dire state. Officers estimate that although it was 40 degrees outside, inside the car it was at least 50 degrees Celsius.

Ready to act THE Defence Minister Margarita Robles presided over the official closing ceremony to thank Spain’s Armed Forces for their service in ‘Operation Balmis’ during the country’s State of Alarm. During Operation Balmis, 187,000 soldiers took to the streets of Spain to fight the coronavirus for 98 days. They were involved in almost 20,000 interventions in 2,300 municipalities across the country with ‘the sole objective of saving lives.’ Their role involved assisting the country’s law enforcement officers (Local and National Police, and Guardia Civil) with duties, such as patrolling the streets, train stations and airports. They were also carry-

The work of the Armed

of the pandemic.’ Spain’s Armed Services have also confirmed that they are ‘on standby and ready to act’ should a second wave of the pandemic occur.

EIGHT OFFICERS: Now in quarantine after being spat at.
THE Guardia Civil has had to send out a warning to residents in Spain about a new wave of scams which involve people pretending to have a family member held hostage in exchange for money. The scammers try to extort anywhere from €2,000 to €10,000 from the families. For now, the majority of these calls have only been detected in Madrid, however, the police are following up an array of reports. In order to incite fear, the scammers pretend to be the ‘supposed hostage’ and scream for help and money in exchange for their release. The Guardia Civil urge any members of

EIGHT Urban Guard officers in Lleida have been placed in quarantine after a 21-year-old detainee infected with Covid-19 spat on them. According to local news sources, the test which proved the young man was infected with the coronavirus was carried out on June 3. Therefore he should have been quarantined in his home but he didn’t stay in quarantine nor did he attend his medical check-up. Since he did not attend a check-up they were not able to repeat the test to see if he had overcome the virus or not. The doctors involved in the case noted that there was no way to locate him and therefore he had not been subjected to any types of health control. The eight officers who intervened in his arrest, custody and transfer have all been forced to quarantine. They are soon scheduled to undergo a PCR test to determine whether or not they are infected, however, none have been tested yet.

ILLEGAL PRODUCT: So called medicine discovered. A RUSSIAN male has been arrested in Asturias Province accused of illegally manufacturing and selling medi-
cines in Asturias, Alicante and Russia.Officers from the Guardia Civil discovered that this individual had no permits to allow the production of these medicines which sold for between €60 and €80 per unit and after analysis it emerged that the contents were potentially dangerous when taken by humans. When searching his property, officers discovered 25 kilos of dif-
ferent substances, minerals, vegetables, nutrients, fertilisers, biofertilisers, and other supplements for agricultural use as well as 106 litres of feed additives meant for livestock use. It transpired that all of the ‘medicine’ was prepared in the man’s home using plastic bottles purchased from a pharmaceutical supplier and bearing false labels using the logos and trade names of two real Spanish companies.

AN off-duty Spanish cop in Madrid who saved a sixmonth-old baby’s life says the pair now have a lifelong bond. The Guardia Civil officer, Christian Rios, has assured in various social networks that, after the dramatic episode in Leganes, he and little Izan “are now friends forever.” Rios was enjoying free time with friends in a park when he heard cries for help after Izan had reportedly lost consciousness, according to the Guardia Civil. The baby had gone into cardiorespiratory arrest, so the quick-thinking officer immediately gave Izan a heart massage until he began to recover, while waiting for the emergency services. Sources from the Armed Institute said that, according to the medical assistance, the baby’s condition could have been due to an episode of “sudden infant death,” as the little boy was in perfect health.

Rights for Trans
LGBTQI: New law to be introduced. THE Ministry for Equality is taking the first steps towards a law that had until now, remained in Congress pending approval. The law aims to “recognise as a right” the “self-determination of trans people” as well as other measures to protect the LGBTQI community, despite government spokes-person María Jesús Montero, avoiding the debate on Tuesday after internal arguments from PSOE were leaked that seemed to reject
the measure. The right to self-determination will erase the need for a psychological evaluation and the compulsory two-year hormone treatment to be able to change a person’s gender on official documents and is included within the new LGBTQI law as well as the Trans Law proposed by the government in the coalition agreement. Regardless of the reservations within the PSOE party, the General Directorate of Sexual Diversity
and LGBT Rights has presented the ministry’s campaign for Pride 2020, headed by the slogan ‘Now, more than ever, Pride.’ During the presentation, Montero addressed the Trans community “I want you to know that your lives matter and as an institution, we are not going to backpedal. This government will do everything it can to ensure your lives are the same as everyone else’s, dignified, free, and most importantly, happy.”
Bleak future
TOUGH times are ahead for Spain as the FMI predicts a 12.8 per cent drop in the country’s economy, the worst in the world. Despite having controlled the pandemic from a health point of view, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez admitted that a “dark horizon” looms over the country’s economy, as the latest forecasts from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) predict a 12.8 per cent drop in Spain’s GDP. Sánchez made the comments during the opening of the videoconference 'United response for Latin America and the Caribbean to Covid-19,' in which Spain brought together leaders from various countries of the region. In his opening remarks, the Prime Minister admitted that the coronavirus pandemic is far from "settled" despite the situation that Spain and Europe are currently experiencing, given the rapid expansion of the virus on the American continent. Sánchez appealed for unity now more than ever to face the “terrible health impact” of the coronavirus and, as a consequence, the “terrible economic and social impact of the pandemic, which has forced economies and governments to take forceful and also courageous decisions.”
SOCIAL SECURITY services have reached an agreement with the unions to extend the extraordinary aid for freelancers beyond June 30, which is the date it is meant to expire. The Minister of Inclusion, Social Security and Migration, Jose Luis Escriva, announced on June 25 that after discussing the matter with different union representatives, they will extend aid. Escriva assures that the “extension of the aid that was initially deployed to alleviate
Aid extended the effects of the crisis caused by Covid19” will continue past the expiration date. According to sources close to the negotiators, the extension of this benefit, which equates to around 70 per cent of the regulatory base (around €661 for those contributing the minimum base), will be available for an additional three months, until September 30.

EASYJET: Low-cost airline announces job cuts and several airport hub closures.
AROUND 1,900 UK employees face the axe, including 727 pilots. The announcement came on June 30 as easyJet boss admitted “that the rest of the UK’s network is under review.” The grim news comes just a few weeks after the low-cost airline warned it may need to reduce employees up to 30 per cent in a bid to “optimise its network and bases.” The airline said it will still continue to operate flights to the airports, despite no longer operating as hubs at some airports. The pilot union Balpa’s General Secretary Brian Strutton said they had been “expecting easyJet to make an announcement of temporary measures to help the airline through to recovery.” But he described the announcement

The company said it will operate around 500 flights per day across its European network, and over 900 flights per week to and from the UK, now borders are open. Other airlines, such as BA, Virgin and Ryanair are also struggling to bounce back from the pandemic. The aviation sector has warned that more redundancies in the airline industry are on the way, with potentially 124,000 jobs lost this year as a result.

As this is something that PP would not normally do, it has angered the Catalan parties who voted him into his position. However, due to these two parties backing Oriol Junqueras, the leader of the Republican Left (ERC) who is currently serving a 13-year prison sentence for sedition, he now holds the key to Sanchez’s continuation in the government.

STAYING on top of the latest currency news can help you time your transfers more effectively, so find out what you should be looking out for over the next couple of weeks… Latest currency news The past couple of weeks have been marked by some notable volatil ity in currency markets, amidst grow ing concerns that we face a coron avirus resurgence. During this time, we’ve seen GBP/EUR slump from 1.11 to 1.09 and EUR/GBP climb to 0.91. Meanwhile, GBP/USD has plunged from 1.25 to 1.22, whilst EUR/USD has traded between $1.11 and $1.13. What’s been happening? Fresh coronavirus outbreaks in countries like China and Germany, as well as a startling spike in cases in the US, has rocked currency markets through the second half of June, amid fears of a second wave of infections.

Second wave fears drive volatility in currency markets
VOLATILE: Amidst growing concerns of a coronavirus resurgence. This has been particularly damag ing for the pound. The currency has had to content with Brexit concerns and the Bank of England’s announce ment of more stimulus while growing increasingly sensitive to market senti ment. Despite the rise in coronavirus cas es setting back plans to reopen the US
economy, the US dollar has actually strengthened over the last two weeks as second wave fears have kept the safehaven currency in strong de mand. Meanwhile, the euro has fluctuat ed in recent weeks, with Europe’s sol id progress towards eradicating the coronavirus being offset by the EU’s
failure to reach an agreement on a re covery fund as well as the threat of a transatlantic trade war. What do you need to look out for? Looking ahead, it’s likely the pound will remain on the back foot going for ward so long as Brexit progress re mains limited and the UK’s coron avirus figures remain elevated. Only a few weeks ago PM Boris Johnson had expressed confidence that a deal could be reached by the end of July, but that optimism isn’t shared by many. If the number of UK coronavirus in fections continue spiking in specific regions, the prospect of lockdown re strictions being reintroduced could weigh on GBP exchange rates. For EUR investors the focus at the start of July will be whether EU lead ers are able to agree on the terms of the coronavirus relief fund, with fur
ther delays likely to undermine the single currency. The next ECB gathering will also be of interest, as will growth and output figures for the Eurozone’s largest economies. Finally, with coronavirus concerns continuing to weigh on market senti ment it’s likely we will see the US dol lar remain well supported over the coming weeks, although any gains could be tempered as political risks begin to grow.

LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT
FEATURE
A very serious situation
IT strikes me that most of the the illegal street parties that are being held across the UK’s cities are not being staged as any celebration or gathering of people in pursuit of innocent fun. They are far more sinister than that. These are, particularly in London, mobs of young, predominately black lawbreakers, cocking an arrogant snook at authorities and intentionally flouting the rules to antagonise and provoke the police into more violent confrontation. It will therefore come as no surprise to me to subsequently hear the usual accusations levelled against the police of using ‘unnecessary force’ or the ‘heavy handedness’ we have come to expect. At the time of writing, 120 police have already been injured at these ‘gatherings.’ I can only assume that as yet no ‘innocent party-goers’ have been hurt or you can be rest assured the outcry would have been heard across the nation. This is of course exactly what these shadowy ‘party’ organisers want. They want these events to be the catalyst for the continuation and escalation of their war against the authorities and an excuse to ultimately disrupt and tear asun-

der the very fabric of the UK’s society. This is a very serious situation indeed. If the authorities don’t stop pussy footing around and appeasing those who condone and encourage this revolutionary racial violence, the streets of Britain’s great cities will begin to resemble the Beirut I warned about 30 years ago - and we will also witness the holocaust that a certain politician, far more intelligent and visionary than I prophesised even more years before that!
Talk about dammed if you do and dammed if you don’t. The British government is set up like ducks in a fairground shooting gallery, and don’t the lefty media love having a ‘pop.’ It’s really very simple; let the government make a decision and then oppose it! ‘The government wants to set up three-metre distancing.’ Media. ‘We think this is overreacting.’ ‘The government has reduced distancing to one metre.’ Media. ‘This is dangerous and irresponsible.’ ‘The gov-
ernment is imposing total lockdown.’ Media. This is overkill and unnecessary.’ ‘The government wants to reopen some services and ease the lockdown.’ Media. ‘It’s too soon.’ Etc. etc. If you get my drift! The next move is to make sure their main interviewees are opposed to whatever subject they wish to demean, which gives the impression that the majority of the ‘experts’ disagree with the government policies. This results in the viewer beginning to think that the opinions and anti-government rhetoric being constantly aired must be supported by the majority. Although they may disagree, they then begin to doubt their own political beliefs. This is known as brain washing, pure and simple. Well, much to the main Media’s arrogant surprise, these methods didn’t work during the last elections. If they continue to underestimate the public intelligence in their efforts to undermine this government and rebuild their precious Labour party - they won’t work this time either.

CONSULAR MATTERS AS a lawyer at Just Law Solicitors, the Danish Consul and someone living in Spain, the past few months have affected all of us in a way that is still difficult to quantify. All aspects of our lives that were normal before are not any more. Our jobs, our studies, our holidays, our relationships with our families and friends, all of us somehow have been shaken by a sudden awakening within a nightmare, in one way or another. Whether from an economic point of view, if you have been laid off or furloughed or lost your job together with the uncertainty of when and how you can return to employment. Also from a social point of view as the lockdown has taken us

In addition to all of what has happened from a personal or family point of view, this pandemic has taken the lives of many loved ones and has affected others for life. Hopefully the virus can be controlled and we now have a new premiere of ‘normality’ or ‘the new normal’ where some people have not yet learned, or do not want to, the magnitude that this pandemic can reach if we do not adopt the recommended preventive measures to try to recover our lives as much as possible to the lifestyle that we had led until a just a few months ago. I am surprised to see people who do not fol-

Obviously, they are not aware of the risk that they run, or maybe they do not care, but they should be concerned about the risk to others. Preventative measures must be taken as a way of protecting other citizens.

If we achieve that, for residents and tourists, we will continue to be one of the best places where we can spend our holidays, or living here in Spain because it is a privilege to enjoy our mild and bright winters or the summer holidays where freedom replaces the clock that marks the schedules. If all together we can make it possible we will continue enjoying our paradise, simply by wearing a mask, washing your hands and maintaining the social distance of 1.5 metres, never before in the history of humanity, has such a serious problem had such an affordable solution. Let’s be responsible and enjoy the summer that has just begun.

IT’S no secret that lockdown has affecte d p e o p l e i n d i ff e r ent ways. There are those who have despised every second. Those who couldn’t wait to go shopping in crowded places like Bicester, get on a plane, see friends in large groups. Then, there are others who are just a different personality type. Those who enjoy meeting up with friends, but either singly or in small groups. They couldn’t imagine anything worse than visiting Bicester!

Is there life beyond lockdown? lockdown almost a way of life. Norwegians themselves say: “What lockdown? This is normal.” Now look at the Wo r l d H a p p i n e s s R e port and which count r i e s t o p t h e l i s t . Ye s . Norway, Finland and Denmark. Maybe isolation is the key to happiness after all. But isolation does affect people in different ways. Writers like me are used to sitting for hours alone at a computer so it isn’t such a problem. And post-lockdown, there’ll undoubtedly be a flurry of new books on the market due to the enforced confinement. Frankly, I haven’t minded lockdown, having worked throughout from home, as I am fortunate enough to be in

Just cos you can, you don’t have to MIKE SENKER IN MY OPINION Views of a Grumpy Old Man OUT for my walk the other day I noticed a restaurant proudly advertising that they specialise in Mexican, Indian and Italian food. I decided this is not a place I would go to eat any of their three specialities. My reasoning is that if I wanted to eat an Indian meal wouldn’t I be better to go to an Indian restaurant that only specialised in Indian food? I would love to know if anyone has been to one of these places and if so what was it like? This pandemic is going to sort out the men from the boys. The few eateries that I have been to have all made noticeable changes - trimmed down menus and more space. I love it. Nothing worse than being so close to the person next to you that you want to join in their conversation. I still insist I get my table with the wobbly leg of course but no more tables in the naughty corner or the loo. The biggest bonus is they are actually pleased to see you and the service is brilliant. Of course they are real-
ising now they need local customers as well as tourists. Saw a talk show the other night and the host was saying that the young should go out and do their thing. Be careful but basically get back to normal as it’s their time. We old have had our time and more or less nature should take its course with us. Meanwhile he’s doing his show in the comfort of his Beverly Hills mansion. If he feels so strongly why doesn’t he insist that he goes back to doing his show live in the studio with an audience who are happy to mingle? Or maybe he won’t because the network would be terrified of the consequences. I also saw someone on the UK news saying it was too soon to open the pubs and a few other places as they wouldn’t feel safe. I’m screaming at the TV - JUST ‘COS YOU CAN, YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO! The government can open up what they like. If you aren’t comfortable don’t go. If you are then go. Simple really. Finally I was really impressed watching 6,000 Americans cheering the POTUS drink a glass of water with one hand and then throwing the glass on the floor.

lockdown. But there’s blatantly some who would like to go on fore v e r, m o r e f o r t h e i r own comfort than to stop the virus. But people need to get back to work while there is
still some work to get back to. So go to restaurants or take advantage of their takeaways - and other post-lockdown businesses here in Spain. Their income
depends on services to all of us - otherwise they face the prospect of an extremely lean summer. Showing the sort of maverick intuition that will probably soon land me a job with Dominic Cummings, I grasp this simple, inescapable fact: use them or lose them!

La Madrague GAVIN LAMBE-MURPHY AS Brigitte Bardot, or perhaps Elvis, said - we’re caught in a trap. At least, I seem to be. And i t ’s a t r a p I f i n d h a rd e r t o e s c a p e w i t h e a c h p a s s i n g d a y. Now that we’re free, and life is there for the taking, it appears that I prefer to stay home. As soon as the gates of life reopened, I was full of enthusiasm. Eager to visit many of my favourite haunts, I soon realised, I longed to be in my garden. Suddenly traffic feels heavy, streets busy, and beaches, well, let’s say, I watch from h o m e . W h y b e s u r ro u n d e d b y people, when I could be poolside with my dog, and a Whipering Angel? Post, for the last few months, has been pretty nondescript. In fact, it’s been a drag. Where once, fun invitations, were my breakfast reading. I mean, who needs to w a t c h d o o m a n d g l o o m o n T V, when you can have, ‘see you soon’ on an invitation. H o w e v e r, s a d l y I ’ d b e c o m e used to, little other than bills, upon bills. Then, as if a ray of glory from days past. This week, the postman arrived with envelopes, too refined, to deliver an electricity bill. All at once, it seems as if everyone wants to host a party. Everything, from stylish days sailing, to charity galas, and all in between. Marbella, and the world, is alive, and ready to party. After months of shorts and trainers, now life requires a dress code. It requires numerous dress codes, worse luck. Too many to consider. I stare at my recently, unpacked, and arranged wardrobe, and I despair. I want to stay in my shorts and Nikes. These days if it requires more than this, I probably won’t b o t h e r. T h e o n l y a d d i t i o n o f change I do make, from time to time, being, Gucci loafers. That’s as far as I’ll go. And, that’s for lunch, ‘proper.’ Things have come to a pretty pass, when I close the wardrobe doors, and RSVP no to parties, that sound, glittering. However, the new me, is in fact, the old me.
GARDENING: I now much prefer the slower pace of life. Before a life of endless social whirl, I was once a very relaxed person. One, who preferred to spend time alone. One, who preferred the beach, to flash bulbs. Having been dislocated from the world, I somehow feel, I now want to remain on the periphery. I want to hold on to the slower pace version of existence, that I’ve lived for the first half of the year. I rise earlier and earlier, as summer unfolds. The birds now waking me at times, that I used to fall home. During lockdown, I found myself doing things, very much out of my norm. I guess, anything was better than sitting around all day, watching endless news reports about the dreaded virus. One task I enjoyed, was taking care of the garden. And as life moves on, I wake very early and I’m in the garden, lost in silence. So lost, that most days our gardener arrives and asks me what I’m doing. While dancing takes place on the terrace almost every night. By midnight, I watch life unfold on Instagram, and I say, let them dance. Let them sleep late. But, I must be up with the lark, or whatever bird it is that wakes me at 04.40.

WHEN I was a kid I was enthralled by the adventures o f B re r R a b b i t a n d B re r Bear and the Disney movie ‘Song of the South.’ The film has not been shown again in cinemas or on television for decades because it is believed that it has racist connotations. The lead figure in the movie is an old, black, bearded plantation labourer called Uncle Remus who relates his stories of magical animals to a young boy called Jonny who was about to run away from his grandmother’s plantation. I struggle to find anything that is racist about this delightful movie. All of the Brer Rabbit stories take place after 1848 when slavery was abolished. The Uncle Remus character merely works on the plantation and is free to leave at any time he wishes. Many years later Disney theme parks have a ride

A song of the youth
SPLASH MOUNTAIN: The ride is now to be revamped completely. called Splash Mountain. It’s a magical log flume ride that takes you through the old south. Now, the powers that be
have decided to revamp the ride completely and theme it on their popular movie, ‘The Princess and the Frog.’ I can't for the life of me understand
why they would want to waste their money doing this. There is nothing wrong with the theme of the ride the way it is. This is yet another way of
trying to wipe history away. In July 2017, after being inaugurated as a Disney Legend, the Whoopi Goldberg expressed a desire for Song of the South to be re-released publicly to American audiences. Surely they should listen to this amazingly talented black actress. The movie ‘Song of the South’ has also been placed as the 67th greatest animated film of all time by the online film critics society. I know that I’m not the only one who is getting sick and tired of all this pseudo-racism. The do-gooders are having the time of their lives. They are so busy running around and censoring the past that they aren’t looking to the future. Surely it is time to deal with real racism. It’s time to make sure that people are treated equally regardless of their colour, race, religion or sexual orientation. It’s time to stop all this nonsense and get on with the real problems of racism in our society.

MARBELLA MOMENTS BY NICOLE KING AFTER six years helping different businesses, schools, associations and charities connect with each other to support one another at our United Nationalities of Marbella summits, it’s curious that it took a phone call from Pedro that has brought it all together when he wasn’t even a circle on my Venn diagrams. I met Pedro through Kara of the Boardwalk who has been helping him with support for Malaga’s orphans for over a decade. Pedro has been at most of the UNMS too, but when he called to explain that public funds destined to maintain the residences for the young orphans have been cut back in Andalucia and 142 young people will turn 18 and will be evicted from the orphanages, I knew something more had to be done. Constantly giving money is not the solution; that’s never

Setting up the Self Sufficient Circular Support System been more apparent than during and since the Covid-19 lockdown as right now we have so many charities in desperate need. That’s when the concept of creating a ‘Self Sufficient Circular Support System’ began to take shape. We’re still very much in the developmental stages but already have Linea Directa on board, of course The Boardwalk, Samira of Call London & Co hair salon is taking on one of the orphans and Art Caffé is offering their space. We’re now ready for more because here’s what we want to do: STEP 1 - ADDRESS THE SITUATION OF THE ORPHANS Together with the NGO ‘Inserta Andalucía’ we are going to get the orphans housed and an internship. The first apartment must be ready by mid July for the first children to be on the streets, so
Incentive by Nicole King’s Marbella NOW TV with Hadas Caradas and Inserta Andalucia. there’s no time to lose. Inserta Andalucia will take full responsibility and insurance for the orphans and their initial work contracts, as well as the guarantee and contract for their
apartments - all we have to do is give them the opportunity. To make this a self-sufficient solution a small amount can be added to each client’s bill where the orphans are doing their internships. This combined four to an apartment will help cover their housing and living expenses. This will also enable many companies who need help, but can’t afford to hire anyone right now. Once the orphans are settled we will then concentrate on getting more businesses involved to cater to all our local children with internship opportunities who are equally in need of our support in creating a dignified future here. As well as providing a home and work experience the orphans will also collaborate with local charities, helping address the continuous need for volunteers.
So: a) If you’d like to offer a position to an orphan as an intern to work with your business and offer them support in their integration processes, please contact us. b) If you’re a charity with a need for volunteers, please contact us. c) If you’d like to offer a ‘foster home’ or housing for one of the orphans, please contact us. d) If you’d like to make a donation to kick this incentive off, here is the account created by Inserta Andalucia. Reports will be shown on all funds received and spent. Inserta Andalucia: ES14 2100 2553 8502 1010 7571 REF: United Nationalities & Fairies of Marbella This is the biggest challenge so far, but it looks like we might just pull it off, with your help!!

Liberty Seguros raises over € 6,000 for the Paralympic Youth Athletics Promises Team DUE to the pandemic with mandatory social distancing rules and heightened security measures, Liberty Seguros found itself in an unprecedented situation with regard to this year’s Liberty Race. For the first time ever, its flagship event took place online and delighted in achieving its objective of championing diversity and integration through sport. Raising an outstanding €6,333 for the Paralympic Youth Athletics Promises Team, the Liberty Race was once again hailed a resounding success. This year, the Liberty Race saw 3,000 individuals participate in the event with nearly 1,000 users of social media sharing photos across networks and the hashtag #MiCarreraLiberty experiencing an engagement of over 860,000 on Twitter and Instagram alone.
The Liberty Race advocates solidarity and unity whilst raising funds for young athletes with promising potential at sports level who have not yet benefited from the ADOP Plan. This programme is designed to assist elite sportspeople with disabilities in Spain to prepare for the Paralympic Games. As with previous years, funds raised through donations made by the participants of the race will go to the athletes in the Paralympic Athletics Promises Team. Supported by Liberty Seguros, the Paralympic Athletics Promises Team comprises young males and females from all over Spain between the ages of 12 and 20 that are living with physical, visual, or intellectual challenges, such as those with learning disabilities or debilitating conditions such as cerebral palsy. Funds raised through the Lib-
MARTÍN FIZ: One of the 3,000 participants of the 2020 Liberty Race. erty Race help the athletes to enhance their level of performance through technical training and specialised plans and assist with financing their attendance at national and international competitions. Between 2012 and the present day, the Liberty Race has raised an impressive € 246,333 in total to support these young sportspeople. Alberto Jofre, Managing Director of the Spanish Paralympic
Committee, exclaimed: “This very special edition of the Liberty Race once again demonstrated Liberty Seguros’ enormous commitment to Paralympic Sport. “In the difficult times that we are currently living in, ensuring that this event could go ahead for another year despite the circumstances is a testament to the fact that Liberty continues to champion inclusion and supports people with disabilities to engage in sport. It is a real honour to have a sponsor like this.” Liberty’s Commitment to Paralympic Sport Liberty Seguros champions the integration of those living
with disabilities into society through values that are embodied in sport: effort, the spirit of competition, teamwork, and the desire to push on forwards. Since 2007, it has continuously collaborated with the Spanish Paralympic Committee (CPE) in favour of Paralympic Sport as means of uniting those living with challenges into the community. Within its framework of collaboration, Liberty Seguros founded and supported ‘Liberty Insurance Team of Paralympic Athletics Promises.’ Since the year 2012, this programme has nurtured young promising talent to develop sporting careers. It has hosted events such as the popular Liberty Race and, since the year 2015, has formed the biggest fan club of Paralympic Sport through its #SeSalen initiative.

DEAR Euro Weekly, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez made an excellent job with the coronavirus outbreak but he certainly has not thoroughly thought through the idea of scrapping 10-year-old cars. It may be a good idea for cities and large towns with their higher income and excellent bus service for those unable to replace their vehicle, but that is not the case for everyone nationwide. Has he taken into account the fact that a lot of people in villages and satellite urbanisations do not have that kind of service and are still recovering financially, being on lower incomes, from last September storms. Also, those who bought used cars as replacements certainly would not be able to undertake the further expense forced on them? What has he for them? A Ongley, Algorfa
OUR VIEW Strict protocol
IN the street you can trust yourself to wear a mask, cross the road, go back indoors if people refuse to follow social distancing measures, but what do you do if you are stuck in a 130ft long metal tube going at 575 mph through the sky? There’s nowhere to run. As the first passengers step off flights both in the UK and in Spain there seem to be different sides of the story. One gentleman spoke of no checks on the UK side and a free for all on board the plane where passengers were not allowed to space out and chose to remove masks when they settled in. Another traveller tells of flying into Stansted on a flight where passengers were spaced out, wearing masks and temperature checked upon arrival. Both were with the same low-cost airline…Ryanair. With many people who have been stuck in Spain waiting to see their family for the first time in months and sun worshippers with sights set on the coastal beaches, we would hope EVERY single flight would follow a strict protocol to ensure the safety in both countries and the stop of any spread of infection. So, what is the excuse? Laziness? Or maybe lack of training for staff? If you board a flight and passengers are not following measures you know are strictly important who can you turn to? The passengers themselves may not listen to reason (people don’t often take kindly to being told what to do), the air staff would hopefully be the main choice and keeping an eye on this as a priority or will we see frustrated captains turning back? For your own peace of mind always remember to look after number one, flights are never really the healthiest of places anyway so, keep your mask on, wear gloves, use hand sanitiser and try as best you can to keep your distance. Wash those travelling clothes as soon as you can. But remember it still continues when you hit the ground, for now, let’s all stay safe.

COMMENTS FROM FACEBOOK IT WILL ALL BE TOO LATE! Spot on LL was discussing this the other day, why are all these protestors (rioters) not focusing this energy and hatred to all the embassies of the countries where slavery is STILL rife #modernslavesmatter As you say it doesn’t fit the Globalist agenda... even the FA bending a knee and have footballers’ shirts endorsing this movement, I have my concerns this was a paid for show of support funded by Soros and his corrupt crew. These globalist minions on the streets as you rightly say will wake too late from their ‘wokeness’... The future looks bleak for our children.

AM Hi Leapy, I just wanted to say how much I enjoy reading your column each week, as you say, others think it, you say it. However, this week you are again, absolutely spot on!! Returning from a fabulous lunch, over which, my husband and I had been discussing the BLM and events in the UK etc, fortunately, we are in total agreement about all aspects of life in the UK at present. I opened the Euro Weekly (your page first of course) and, on reading your column, was totally amazed. Were you sitting unseen at the next table?? You have echoed our thoughts exactly, and those of many others I’m sure. We love the UK, still have a property there and love to visit, but it is changing drastically, and not for the better. This morning, Spectrum radio played Vera Lynn singing There’ll Always Be an England, yes there will but sadly, not as we remember it. Thanks, Leapy for keeping it real. Take care and kind regards Sue Spencer
An education Dear Euro Weekly News, I am an American who has lived in Almeria for eight years. I am astounded at the lack of understanding that Leapy Lee displays when he comments on American politics. His recent commentary called ‘Blaming a Racist Virus’ is rife with errors and bias. The George Soros allegations are an old rightwing trope that no Americans take seriously. Trump’s PR stunt, clearing away peaceful protestors with flash grenades and tear gas for a photo op, has been condemned by such leading military leaders as General Mattis, General Kelly and General Milley, the acting head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. What Lee does not understand is that the brutal killing of George Floyd by white police officers has stirred an awakening of the American conscience. Black Lives Matter is no longer just a slogan and a call for action in America. The demonstrations in its favour have spread around the world. Stuart J Cohen Bédar, Almería

9 New Outbreaks: Sudden Surge of Cases in Costa del Sol’s Andalucia Causes Concern Amongst British Holidaymakers I’m afraid as much as people disagree with what’s happening with the country opening up, unfortunately the economy it seems is a bigger priority. Wear your mask and if you’re not happy going out that’s everyone’s choice. We knew sooner or later it would come to this. Stay safe everyone.

Liverpool FC condemns behaviour of some fans as ‘wholly unacceptable’ I lived in England for 76 years born and bred, I left 11 years ago, England is not the country that I grew up in. I was always very proud to tell people in other countries that I was English. I am afraid when I see what is going on there now with all the fights and strapping and no respect at all for the police force, it is becoming a country for yobs and gangsters, that have no respect for themselves. I feel so sorry for my fellow countrymen, that they have to put up with such bad behaviour, I feel so ashamed that they are in my country, and they have no respect for it. Please if this applies to anyone, stop and think England is a great place to live, that’s why you came to live there in the first place, just saying. x

London Riot Police Battered with Bottles in Running Street Battles for Third Night I think it’s about time authorities stopped buckling every time some movement has something to protest about that then becomes illegal. The law is the law, you break it, you have consequences to suffer. If you have something to tell the world, there are ways and means of telling them peacefully without resorting to breaking the law.

YOUR STARS FOR NEXT 7 DAYS ARIES (March 21 - April 20) A pleasant surprise makes you a little more optimistic midweek. It is possible for you to take on negativity too quickly. The next time something does not go according to plan, hold fire. It is amazing what a little time and distance will solve.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) Although last week was not run at the pace anticipated, now the pace certainly picks up. Finances are still firmly on the agenda, but this time you will be able to deal on a more relaxed basis. A contact made recently gives you the opportunity not only to make some money but also to enlarge your circle of friends.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) Make a point of putting on a happy face and your mood will stay high. There is still some more to be done to improve your social life and a recent offer of charity work may be just the thing. Avoid restricting the sort of folk whom you are willing to mix with. Cultural differences apart, it is quite an eye-opener to find out how others live and think.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) Being considerably more relaxed about those things which cannot be changed has taken a weight from your shoulders. It is also easier to understand why others have taken this approach in the past. There is, however, a balance to be found. Don't be put off by people who have become sloppy in their approach because this is not going to affect you.
LEO (July 24 - August 23) Are you still patting yourself on the back for that recent achievement? Socially, this is a lovely week when old friendships are strengthened and new acquaintances prove to be relaxing. It is another mellow week but one in which you seriously consider making a major change.
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) Be your charming self this week without pushing too much. A natural approach when you are seeking a response is the best course of action. Simply being in the right place and under someone's gaze is all that is required. Are you getting itchy because an offer is not forthcoming? Well, if you absolutely must, then get a little bird to whisper in their ear.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) It is clear that you really love your hearth and home but, every now and again, there is a small voice calling. The good things in life appeal and, to have these, an effort is involved. Do not underestimate the amount of pleasure that you will enjoy when putting in that extra effort. It does, after all, involve other people.
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) Having put in extra effort to bring a zing into your life, it is important that you keep the impetus going. This is not only good for your health and wealth, but also your mind. Although trying something new brings a few odd remarks your way, try not to be sidetracked.
SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) There is still a strong accent on family matters and getting things sorted out. The way ahead is clear. If you are able to persuade someone that an idea was theirs and not yours, so much the better. Being in a practical mood serves you well because it is possible to get a lot done in the next few days. The weekend, however, is another matter.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) Your mind is still sharp this week and there are many questions that you would like answered. Doing a bit of research proves fruitful and also quite amusing. A recent contact may not come up with the proposition hoped for, but realise that it is still early days.
AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) A meeting midweek could mean a change to your finances for the better. In the short term, it may be necessary for you to rearrange money and appointments but try not to be too put out. Change is perhaps something that we become less tolerant of after a situation has gone on for a time.

All will become clear in the weeks ahead and this cannot be rushed. However, there is a need to look after your health and get out in the fresh air. Any thought of joining a walking club or health group should be pursued.

BIRTHDAYS
A BALANCED account of game changes, conflicts and ambitions. The fall from popular grace of the previously adulated brother of the heir to the British throne as a consequence of his marriage to a beautiful and dynamic Hollywood starlet of colour makes for fascinating reading in best-selling royal author Lady Colin Campbell’s balanced account. Lady Colin knows her royal history and psychology, and as the first seven years of her adult life were spent in the USA she has a foot in both the American and British camps. With unique breadth of insight she goes behind the scenes, speaking to friends, relations, courtiers, and colleagues on both sides of the Atlantic to reveal the most unexpected royal story since the Abdication.

DIONE LOCKYER TROLL - In internet slang, a troll is a person who starts flame wars or upsets people on the internet by posting inflammatory and digressive, extraneous, or off topic messages with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses. Trolling is becoming more and more common these days, but why do people actually troll and what do they gain from it? ATTENTION!! It doesn’t matter whether it is negative or positive, people who troll sites are so desperate for attention that they will go to any length to achieve it. They may suffer from a lack of confidence or other negative mindset issues yet are too scared to face them. Many people do not like to admit to their flaws, they see it as a weakness. To change your mindset takes

2 - 8 July 2020
The Mind Of A Troll work and commitment, for some that is too hard therefore, the easier option is to point the finger at others in judgement. When pointing the finger and seeing a weakness in others it relieves you from dealing with your own issues. Sometimes it even makes you feel better about yourself and your situation, but this feeling is very short lived. Before you know it, you are back to looking at yourself in disappointment and the only way out is to... 1) Take action and address your own issues or 2) Continue to judge others and troll As a successful public figure and newspaper columnist, I am open wide to trolls yet I am rarely affected by them. Yes, I receive the odd nasty email or comment but it doesn’t last for long. Why?
TROLLS: Are more and more common. I STARVE THEM FROM OXYGEN!! Their oxygen is the attention they crave. Trolls love nothing more than a reaction. They thrive on an argument and almost get excited when they are aware they have created hurt or anger towards others. Take my column last week as a perfect example. I purposely gave it a controversial title because I wanted to see who actually reads a whole column as opposed to those who form an
opinion purely over the title. I received an email from a reader advising me how disgusting I was about fat shaming. She continued her email by actually fat shaming me. This person hadn’t even read the column. If she had, she would have known I was actually doing the complete opposite. She had no intention of reading it, she wanted to troll me. I starved her of her oxygen by not giving her the attention she thought she would
receive. What I did do was show empathy, whilst giving facts and was clear that there would be no further communication. However, if she ever wanted to change her mindset I would be more than happy to help her. She replied with further abuse because she wanted a reaction from me. She didn¡t get it, so she soon gave up! Today’s technology gives trolls a platform. They can hide behind a keyboard, with a fake profile and minimal chance of being caught. It is easy to allow them to get to you. It is easy to respond in anger and frustration. But remember, that is EXACTLY what they want. If you want trolls to become history, a thing of the past, starve them from their oxygen. Either kill them with kindness or even better, don’t react at all. Once their oxygen is removed, they can no longer breathe and will have to give up.
If you would like to dig a little deeper into your own thoughts, feelings and behaviours or you would like to complete one of my courses to live a happy and healthy life with yourself, please email me coachingwithdione@gmail.com.

Cellulite Fact or Fiction? Are you worried about a friend or a loved one’s Mental health?
Toxins in your body cause cellulite FICTION Cellulite appears when fat deposits start to push through collagen fibres under the skin, often in the buttocks or thigh areas, but also on arms and stomachs. Connective tissue can be weakened by lack of exercise and muscle tone, hormones or excess fat. Women get more cellulite than men. FACT Women tend to carry more fat around their hips and thighs than men. They also have less supportive connective tissue to keep it all in place. However, it is estimated that around 10 per cent of men suffer from cellulite. Cellulite only appears if you are out-of-shape FICTION Being overweight does make the appearance of cellulite more visible; the more fat you have underneath your skin, the more stress it will put on your connective tissue and bulge out at weak spots. But, remember, cellulite happens to women of all shapes and sizes. Exercise can reduce the appearance of cellulite FACT Regular exercise will not cure cellulite, but it can help prevent or reduce its appearance. Cellulite shows when connective fibres under your skin get weak or lose their elasticity, stretching and strengthening those areas, in addition to WEAK SPOTS: Cellulite happens to burning away excess fat, can help. women of all shapes and sizes.
De-stress your skin STRESS is the leading factor of disease within our bodies and our skin is our largest organ, therefore it’s paramount to keep damage at bay during anxietyridden times. Stress can play havoc with your hormones. Cortisol is released
in response to stress and is the enemy of collagen. It attacks the connective tissue that keeps your face firm. Anxiety can also cause us to make certain facial expressions, such as frowning which can leave wrinkling on the forehead and eyes. Be aware of holding facial expressions when stressed. Breathe in deeply, and as you exhale, imagine your face becoming relaxed and smooth. Meditation is also helpful, even if you have just a few moments. Lack of hydration is typically a wrinkle culprit, so make sure you consume
at least eight glasses of pure water each day to prevent dry skin and to eliminate toxins. Lack of beauty sleep can cause fluid to gather under your lower eyelid resulting in droopy bags. Also. Those who sleep face down can expect puffiness due to gravity. At least eight hours of sleep is a must. Shut off any electronic devices an hour before you go to sleep. If you still wake up with puffy eyes in the morning, massage the back of a cold spoon from the inner to the outer corner of your eye to jump start the fluid’s drainage.
MS BIPOLAR UP AND DOWN WITH BALANCE UNEDITED MANY people experiencing worr i e s o r t ro u b l e s w i l l s p e a k t o friends and family before they speak to a doctor, so the support you offer can be really valuable.
What are the signs that someone might need help? We all go through stressful events from to time that can change our nor mal behaviour. Short-ter m changes to behaviour are common. We may feel more stressed, angry or sad. These feelings are not always a sign of mental illness but changes in behaviour can be a sign that someone is developing a mental illness. You may notice that they start to behave differently. You may see a change over a number of months. They could become more anxious, be irritable, try to start argum e n t s , h a v e m o o d swings, self-har m, sleep too much or too little, not want to be around other people, be less able to cope with work or studies, have concentration problems, have memory problems, eat more or less, or have suicidal thoughts. How can I encourage someone to get help? You can try to help someone by encouraging them to get help from their doctor, a GP can give treatment for some symptoms of mental
health conditions. Or they can refer your relative to a psychiatrist. They might not want to visit their GP. They may not think they are unwell, not realise a GP can help, understand they need help but feel too embarrassed or frightened to talk to a doctor. Speaking to a professional and opening up about how you are feeling can be quite a scary situation. There are some things you could tell the person you’re worried about. • You can go with them to a doctor’s appointment to support them if they don’t want to go alone. • Many mental health problems can be treated. They might be worried they will have to go to hospital. • GP notes are confidential. This means the doctor can’t share information with anyone else unless they agree to it. The GP may have to share information with others if they feel someone is at risk of har ming themselves. You, yourself, may w o r r y that you aren’t doing enough to help them but believe me, offering emotional support is really valuable. Listen to them, offer them reassurance, stay calm, be patient, do not make assumptions. Write to me your thoughts or any tips you may have experienced when helping someone through difficult times.

LA SALA BY THE SEA: Offers a variety of local and world cuisine.
MOVIE NIGHTS: Aerial view of the bullring.
IN a move aimed mainly at the family, Cines Teatro Goya is launching the Arena Summer Theatre which will screen 77 films during July, August and September. The former bullring above Puerto Banus will house 400 people in order to observe social distancing and there will be a different show every
night starting at 10.30pm with tickets costing €7.90 with a special €5.90 price on Wednesdays. There will be a wide range of different classic and new movies but to find out more and make bookings visit www.cinesteatrogoya.com or purchase tickets at the Marbella Arena box office from 9pm each night.
IT appears that summer 2020 is finally gaining some momentum as Puerto Banus sees popular beachfront venue, La Sala by the Sea has now opened its doors. The team have been working hard in preparation to welcome guests back seven days a week to the vibrant Beach Club and Restaurant situated on the shore of the most popular beach in the resort. This season you can savour the Taste of Thailand with a fabulous new midweek two-course Lunch by the Sea Menu for just €20 per person! The menu sees delicious new dishes including Thai Prawn Toast as well as La Sala signature favourites such as Prawn Pil Pil Tagliatelle. Operations Director Claire Radford adds “The restaurant has always been
an incredibly important part of the beach club, by offering a variety of local and world cuisine in the form of a great value two-course set lunch menu in a wonderful setting by the sea, is something we know locals will enjoy.” The weekends will see the beachfront venue come to life with DJ Scott Strutton taking to the decks alongside LIVE Saxophone, keeping everyone entertained. Visit for a cocktail or two and soak up the atmosphere! For your reassurance and confidence, full social distancing, safety and hygiene measures have been put in place in accordance with government guidelines. Due to limited capacity, pre-booking is essential so contact La Sala by the Sea today at: reservations@LaSalaByThe Sea.com or call 952 813 882.
Events in Benalmadena THE Benalmadena Council has announced that it will host 26 different cultural
events during July and August with the bulk being held at either the La Paloma Auditorium
in Arroyo de la Miel or Los Nadales in Benalmadena Pueblo. It considers that these two venues are the most appropriate as it is relatively easy to control the number of people admitted and to ensure that social distancing and safety requirements are complied with. The concept is twofold, firstly to give residents and visitors a chance to enjoy some entertainment following lockdown, but also to give local talent an opportunity to perform. There will be a selection of different styles of music including flamenco, singer/songwriters, jazz, rock, classical and soul as well as some cinema, comedy and magic.

Talking to Mr Maph Celtic Night
returns
Credit: Big M Promotions
THE State of Alarm and lockdown whilst initially upsetting has set popular Costa del Sol singer Michael Harding (better known as Mr Maph) off on a completely new direction. He told me “I could have kept on working hard being a singer appearing at private functions and in top Costa venues but I need to express my own music, not someone else’s all of the time. “Don’t get me wrong John, I love soul music and all of the standards but as I had time to think, I realised that I needed to explore my soul and produce my own music again rather than simply make a living covering the standards.” Mike explained that whilst he was unable to per form, it gave him the opportunity to express his musical side and he has worked hard in his home studio and recorded a number of selfpenned gospel as well as soul numbers. But that’s not all - just a few years ago he persuaded Otis Redding III to visit Spain and they per-

formed in Benalmadena to a full house and this has given him a taste for promotion. He has been chatting with Otis who is primarily a guitarist who sings about another more lavish visit with a number of shows and that is on the cards for later this year and he also wants to bring other ‘named’ artists over. “As I get into doing more of this type of work, I am going to cut
back on my ‘cover’ appearances” he explained. “I will still do them because I know I do them well but by having fewer gigs, I’ll be fresher each time.” A newer and fresher looking version of Mr Maph will be making three Motown appearances at Olivia’s in La Cala de Mijas on July 5, 19 and 26, so if you want to see the Soul Man in action make your reservation now.
THE always busy (until the lockdown) Big M Promotions has signed a contract with the Mijas Department of Tourism to organise the popular ‘Noche Celta - Celtic Night’ for the second year. It is to be held in the Mijas Auditorium in the Pueblo on Saturday August 8 from 9pm but due to Covid-19 pre-
cautions, capacity will be reduced and even though entrance is once again free, it will be by ticket only. Details of performers and how to obtain tickets will be released as soon as practicable, but one thing is certain, masks will need to be worn in order to gain admittance on the night.

This week Celebrity Chef & Master Chef Steven Saunders, proprietor of The Little Geranium in La Cala celebrates the reopening of The Little Geranium after four months closure!
The Little Geranium is open!
Steven Saunders FMCGB The Little Geranium La Cala de Mijas www.thelittlegeranium.com
READERS of my weekly page will know that I have been talking about reopening for some time but due to restrictions, we have been unable to open as it has just not been viable. There are many other small restaurants and bars in the same situation. It appears that it is not legal to have 12 people inside a small restaurant or bar, but when I go to the gym each morning it is perfectly OK for 100 people with no metre restrictions and not a mask in sight! It can’t be easy try-
ing to keep everyone safe, but I don’t think that they have given enough thought to the small restaurants and bars on our coastline and sadly many will not be able to reopen because of the restrictions. However, we are going to give it a go! Here are some of the new things that we are planning: New Tasting Menu concept We opened on July 1 with a few tables inside and a few outside with a new tasting menu concept, which offers more price variety. We are only opening in the evenings, by reservation and Michele my wife will organise in advance with you which menu you would like to be on so that we have close contact and coordination with our clients. It gives a much more personal touch to our restaurant and ensures that you get the menu you want and the time you want to eat. Expect some
Chef Steven and Michele.
friendly attentive service and some fantastic arty food. I am designing new dishes every day and I have introduced a special threecourse tasting menu at only €30 available by booking online or email Michele@thelittlegerani um.com as well as a range of four-course to ninecourse tasting menus at a variety of prices so that you can literally choose what you want to spend! Wine pairing We will be featuring some new wines from our fantastic local Spanish supplier including some rare
Spanish wines, some local wines and some French premium wines like Chablis and Montrachet. Wine pairing is available to go with your chosen tasting menu and is great value, for example for the three-course menu we serve three fantastic wines to go with each course at just €15 per person. Our Porsche Chauffeur service When you reserve the nine-course Platinum menu (see online) you can book the chauffeur service (it is on a first come, first served basis, see terms) totally complimentary within
10km of the Geranium. For terms and more information go online www.thelit tlegeranium.com or email Michele. Molecular Cookery days Learn how to cook like a Michelin Chef, the modern way with me in my own home here in Mijas. Expect to see how to souvide without a machine, how to make airs, purees, emulsions, gels, home smoking and curing. Create the theatre at home and blow your friends away! Email for more information. Dine In Not a takeaway but a dining experience in your own home! For €50 pp you will get a seven-course tasting menu of fine dining food to enjoy in the comfort of your own home. If you want to stay in but eat Michelin style food, then email us for more information and the current menu. Buy a Voucher and get 10 per cent If you are planning to visit The Little Geranium
anytime in 2020 then you can buy a voucher and receive a 10 per cent bonus. For example, if you buy a voucher for €100 you will get a €110 voucher and so on. To obtain a voucher and receive the discount, send Michele an email with your requirements and we will send it electronically. I hope that we see you soon!

Home Smoked Salmon, made easy (serves two) Ingredients It is better to buy a small smoking device called a smoking gun which you can buy online for about €50. 3 herbal tea bags with the contents emptied out of the bags (1 glass cloche if you are using a smoking gun) 2 fillets of good quality salmon boneless & skinless 1 glass of dry white wine 1 packet of wakame seaweed (you can often find this frozen in some supermarkets) 50g of unsalted butter 1 large sprig of fresh dill Juice of half a lemon Olive oil Maldon salt Fresh milled black pepper
Method for Salmon Seal the salmon on one side in a hot pan in a little olive oil and remove and put on a small baking tray sitting on the sprig of fresh dill (or other herb). Pre heat the oven to 200ºC. Put half the butter on top of the salmon and add the wine and season well and bake in the oven for 7-10 minutes (depending on size). Remove and rest For truffle cream 50 g salted butter 250 ml of fresh thick cream 1 small onion peeled and chopped finely 1 clove garlic peeled and chopped 2 heaped teaspoons of truffle pieces (or shavings of fresh black truffle) A splash of dry white wine 2 teaspoons truffle oil Seasoning
Method In a thick bottomed sauce pan pour the little white wine and warm it. Now add the garlic, onion and finally the cream and cook out and reduce for five minutes on a medium heat. Pass this through a sieve into a clean pan. Finally add the butter stir in and then the truffle pieces, the truffle oil and taste and season. Smoking the Salmon For this you will need a smoking gun or you can smoke using a small saucepan with a fitted colander on top and a lid. Simply put the tea bag contents into the saucepan and warm on a low heat to start the smoking (not too hot or it will burn) then put the colander on top and then add the salmon fillets onto a butter wrapper and then put on a fitted lid and leave for 5 minutes for the smoke to penetrate the salmon.

Serve the salmon with a little lemon squeezed over and with some wakame seaweed on top and the truffle sauce separately. Note: If using a smoking gun, you can hold the smoke under the glass cloche over the dish and then reveal it at the table for great theatre.

CHARITIES ACE CHARITY ‘El Refugio’ in La Cala de Mijas is a registered charity. We have on average 275 dogs in our care and we receive no help from the Town Hall or the Andalucian government. We desperately need foster homes and adoptants for our many dogs, especially the small ones and puppies who do not do well in a big shelter. We are grateful for any help offered, including donations of food and blankets. Visiting times are from 13.00 to 15.00 and you can always turn up or make an appointment by calling Denise on 669 018 736. Our website is www.ace-charity.org where you can view all the dogs in our care. (93320) ADANA THE ANIMAL SHELT E R I N E S T E P O N A . We always need volunteers to walk and socialise with our dogs and help with cleaning. We also need good homes for our animals that you can see on www.adana.es. Kennels open every day 10-1.30, Camino de Casares, near Parque de los Pedregales, Estepona. (5 minutes from the Poligono) For more information call 952 113 467, available from 10.00am until 14.00pm. (93319) S E P E the horse and donkey charity is open to the public at weekends from 10.00 to 5.00. Volunteers are much needed in all departments and are welcome at any time. 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 re-homing, please call 653 257 875. Visit our website www.sos-animals.org or please phone Sandy on 952 385 923 or 666 814 056 if you would like to make a donation or help in any way.

Messi’s 700th goal Arsenal signs Bukayo Saka PENALTY GOAL: Messi scored in the La Liga draw on Tuesday evening.
LIONEL MESSI was jubilant as he scored the 700th goal of his career when he converted a penalty into a goal in Barcelona’s La Liga draw with Atletico Madrid on Tuesday evening. Top scorer Messi gently chipped the ball into the net as Jan Oblak dived the wrong way, the goal had put Barcelona 2-1 up, but Atletico soon hit back to draw 2-2. The Argentina star played a part in the opener for Barcelona when his whipped corner hit Diego Costa and deflected into the back of the net.
Costa took the spot-kick only to see it saved by Marc-Andre ter Stegen, the ref, however, insisted it be retaken as the Barcelona goalkeeper had come off his line early, Saul Niguez took the second penalty and sent Ter Stegen the wrong way. Messi restored Barcelona’s lead and reached his career milestone with his cheeky Panenka, but Niguez equalised again with another penalty as Barca dropped points which could cost them dear in the title race.
NAPOLI: Want to sign Osimhen and Gabriel for a total of €100m.
ARSENAL announced yesterday, July 1 that they have tied Bukayo Saka down to a long-term contract with the club in what is being rumoured as a four-year deal. Saka has so far made 33 appearances this season, playing mainly down the left flank and has contributed three goals as well as 11 assists. The 18-year-old, who came through the club’s academy, has made a major impact during the current season after making his debut in the Europa League in 2018. “Bukayo is a talented and intelligent young player,” head coach Mikel Arteta told the club’s website.
TEEN STAR: Signed a long term conract. “He has impressed me with his work ethic and attitude to learn and adapt, and it has paid off in his performances. “I am excited to continue working with him to develop him further, and for him to help us
achieve our goals.” Arsenal’s technical director Edu commented that Saka’s contract extension is a sign the club’s academy is proving a success in the development of young players. “This is something everyone involved wanted to happen and we are delighted Bukayo has signed a new long-term contract,” Edu added. Saka tweeted: “London is my home. Arsenal my team. I’m so happy to finally announce my contract extension. I love playing for this club and I’m looking forward to what the future holds. The hard work continues so I can continue living my dream.”
Osimhen and Gabriel for Naples
SOURCES have revealed Napoli are confident they have won the race to sign Lille duo Victor
Osimhen and Gabriel for a combined price of €100 million. Osimhen, a 21-year-old
forward, and Gabriel, a 22-year-old defender, travelled from Lille, where they have resumed training, to Italy on Tuesday June 30 to start talks with Aurelio De Laurentiis, the Napoli owner, and his sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli. The offer made by the Serie A club is split €70m for Osimhen and €30m for Gabriel, which meets Lille’s asking price. Osimhen, who enjoyed a stellar Ligue 1 campaign with 13 goals before the shutdown, was linked with a host of Europe’s top clubs in recent weeks. He prefers a move to the Premier League, Laurens adds, but with neither Chelsea nor Manchester United making an official bid, Napoli believe they can convince him to accept the Serie A switch.
