Services Available DoctorLaptop’s June Computer Reconditioning Deal
Is your computer is essential for your daily activities? Computers get slower with age. Even if you properly maintain and service your computer it still won’t end up like new. Over time system modifications, updates, patches, hotfixes, software changes and data being constantly relocated by defragging all make your system less stable. Re-installing Windows restores the performance as well as removing stuff you can’t get rid of manually. A Win 7 install has an expected lifespan of 5 years before a re-install is recommended, but your hardware may not last that long without help.
The average lifespan for a desktop PC built in 2012 is 4.6 years.
http://www.statista.com/statistics/267465/average-desktop-pc-lifespan/
The average life for laptops built in 2013 was almost 3.1 years. This is down from an expected lifespan of laptops built in 2009 of 6 years.
http://www.statista.com/statistics/267474/average-life-of-pc-and-tablets/

If your computer is 3 or more years old, and you want to get another few years use from it, you should seriously consider having it reconditioned. This process includes: wipe and revitalize the hard drive (fixes bad sectors and re-magnetizes all sectors), install a fresh copy of whatever version of Windows you use (or update to Win 7 for Vista users), pixel fix for the display (laptops), internal & external cleanup, update all drivers & software and optimize the fresh system to today’s standards. Before starting I will copy off all your data, and then replace it into the fresh system.
This job takes 2 to 3 days and costs 80EUR. Deal ends 30JUN16.

New Wills for Old – say hello on Tuesdays at the Country Farmers market Los Jardines del Trapiche

Which Band Played Friday Morning?

Does anyone know the name of the band who were playing on the Balcon in Nerja yesterday morning? They were GOOD, least I thought so and a French bus party tourist told me she thought they were great – when their guide told them time to go they all wanted to stay and listen for longer. joanmccallum1 @ gmail.com

Question re Solar Heating Configuration

I wonder if there is anyone who has experience with this problem out there in Digameland

I would like solar heating for my water but I only have water on the ground floor.

The best place for a panel is on the top terrace three storeys up.

That wastes a lot of water running the hot down to the ground floor.

I thought the best solution is to generate electricity on the top terrace and use it to power an immersion heater in my tank.

Is this viable? Legal? Safe?

Anyone with the experience out there, please help either to me or publicly.

Services Needed – Response Optician
We have been to Soloptical in El Engenio and have been very satisfied. My wife completed the Eye Test in Spanish. I however asked if the optician spoke English and found she was quite fluent,
so I did my eye test in English. She was very thorough and I thoroughly recommend them.

Services Available-Interpreter

Going to see your doctor can be a worrying time for you, be it for your annual check up, or for something a bit more serious. It only adds to that worry if you don’t understand what is being said to you.
Let me help you with that. Fifteen years experience as an interpreter in the hospital allows me to ask the questions you might not have thought of and to explain, in a sensible way, the diagnosis medication or paperwork you need to aid you on the road to recovery.
I don’t charge by the hour and my fee is reasonable.
Do call me if you have any questions.

Recommendation –Photos for Passports, Licences etc…

If anybody is in need of photographs for passports or driving licence etc, I can thoroughly recommend New York Photo in Torre del Mar. If you stand in front of the big church in the centre of town, next to what was the tram station, the shop is painted bright red and set back just to the right of the church. We walked in wanting photos for a UK passport and Spanish driving licence. Within five minutes we were walking out with perfect photos. The shop owner takes the photo and alters the background accordingly on computer (grey for UK passport etc) and even cuts them out to the right size! Four euros for a set of four shots. Quick and efficient and cheap. Nigel.

Recommendation – Transport Services bouqet

We have just had our goods and chattels transported by Canda removals from Spain to the UK, and want to say a big thank you to Cathy & Alan for their excellent service, despite being caught up in the troubles in France. We would recommend their service to anyone, good prices, a lovely couple who do the job properly. Their contact email is :
candaeurovanservice @ yahoo (dot) com. Ann & Peter O’Toole annotoole8 @ yahoo (dot) co. (dot) uk

Recommendation – Dr. Laptop

I would like to thank Dr Laptop for sorting out a problem for me regarding the setting up of a tp-link router . I would not hesitate to use him again .ianandmaryespada @ gmail.com

Recommendation- Competa Local Police

Cómpeta is suffering from a serious lack of water, so i got quite upset, when I came home at about 18 yesterday and found a large leak in a water tube at the boundary of our plot. The Town Hall did not answer the phone at that time, so in desperation I emailed the Alcalde and the responsible for the water, hoping that someone might still be around. Why do these things always happen on Friday evenings!!

Even thought about phoning the police, but, well, perhaps not their line of work.

At about 19, two very concerned officers from the Policia Local called at our house! They had observed the water running across the road. We had a look at the well where the water could be shut off, but it was locked. They tried calling the Town Hall’s plumbers, first without success, but soon apparently they succeeded: the water was closed off!!

Good to see that the situation is being watched. Also our good neighbor came around the see what was happening.

So, next time this happens out of normal business hours, I will not hesitate to call the Policia Local! Birgit

Kittens in Danger

Three of these beautiful kittens at the Repsol Garage. Mother only 9 months old. She will be spayed. Kittens need homes. Tel number on the picture. Very busy site, they are at risk.

Lost – Prescription Spectacles

I ordered a new pair of glasses on the internet and picked them up from my post box in Competa last Wednesday, and then did shopping and had lunch.. Somewhere along the way I seem to have lost them and was wondering whether anybody might have picked them up and wondered who they belonged to.

Official Statement from Archez Town Hall

The management and collection of stray animals is not a function of the Town hall, but an organisation called Mancomunidad, who then contract the collection to Don Animal.

The recent collection of cats has occurred following a number of complaints from people in the village and is something that happens annually and has done so for many years. The Mayoress of Archez, Mari Carmen, is a great believer in animal welfare and this is something beyond her control.

If you would like more information please contact Ruben Ariza on 952 553 159. As previously stated, the collection only occurs when the public make complaints and the Town hall is duty bound to report any complaints to the relevant organisation.

Finally, if anyone requires any information regarding Town hall matters, please contact us prior to posting on social media and we will be happy to provide full and correct information. Thank you. Mari Carmen Moreno Córdoba, Archez Town hall

Services- Transport – Recommendation

I recently asked two Digame transport advertisers for a quote to bring five large packages from UK to Sayalonga.

Tony Roam quoted £142, and did the job, the second quote was for £395.

The packages arrived on time, to the minute, and I was kept informed by regular phone calls and emails.

What a service ! L.A.

Rentals- Owners Direct

(1)

We were very annoyed, too at the new service charges introduced by Owners Direct!

But after reading it through it seems that – if you don’t use the facility of accepting your payments through the website but still accepting payments direct – then it won’t apply.

It seems that soon any clients using this website will not be dealing with ‘owners direct’ !
All of the changes are very frustrating and taking away the personal nature of booking with Owners Direct. If anyone can suggest a good alternative I would love to know.
Joy. Email jdixtfloody @ fsmail.net
(2)

I currently advertise my property through Owners Direct, Holiday Lettings and Airbnb. Owners Direct is the only one that does not charge commission to the owner and the traveller but we are paying an annual listing fee to Owners Direct in lieu of this . The fee that Owners Direct are now levying to travellers is, in part, to be used to fund a full refund to customers who have been unlucky enough to book and pay for a property that has been advertised by fraudsters and does not actually exist and other serious problems that people experience. I would imagine that many potential travellers would want that reassurance as, currently, travel insurance does not cover these losses. As well as advertising my own property on Owners Direct, I do often use the site to rent properties in Rome etc for city breaks. I would be more likely to book through Owners Direct and have that reassurance, than through another site and not have it, but that is only my own personal view. The amount charged is on a sliding scale, the higher the value of the booking the lower the percentage charge will be ( I have no idea why).
You can prevent your guests from having to pay the fee by disabling request to book on your advert and disabling online payments but your number of enquiries may reduce as a result. We have been advertising for quite a number of years now and are in the lucky position that we have a lot of lovely guests who use our house year after year and they tend just to email me directly to deal with their booking but obviously we have built up trust in each other year on year which you are not going to have with guests visiting your property for the first time. It might be worth disabling your request to book facility for a short time to see how it goes and if your enquiries drop, just enable it again. It is interesting that owners are now going to be asked to review their experience with their guests which has always been the procedure with airbnb. M.M.

Rentals – Information re the new law

I have just received information from Jacky at the Nerja Foreigners Department concerning the new law regarding Rental Owners’ Private Properties. If you need any more information please contact your agent or Jacky at the Town Hall. Her email address is extranjeros @ nerja.es

Adorable Kitten Needs a Home

As much as I hate to do this. We have to find a home for cute little beebee. She is the only kitten that popped out of an old cat that adopted us 6 weeks ago. Beebee is socialised litter trained and weaned. She is so sweet but she is too vulnerable around our 5 dogs. So it’s vital to find her a home asap. If you are interested please contact me Julia on 629556210 or email jandtonic@gmail.com. thank you.

65 Card – Responses

(1) Last time round mine came automatically, so I have “not aged at all” because it is still the original photo

(2) The 65 card is renewed automatically and you should receive your new one any day now. Unfortunately if it does not arrive you have to apply for a duplicate and they make you wait for 30 days to see if it turns up before they issue the duplicate. Jan

Windows 10: A New Dirty Trick & Links to Check Your PC

Microsoft has been accused of dirty tricks after apparently fooling users into upgrading to Windows 10 by changing a setting on a pop up so people who click on a red cross in the corner — which usually closes a window – are instead deemed to have accepted an upgrade. Previously Microsoft advised people not wishing to upgrade to click the red cross. Microsoft says anyone who inadvertently agrees to the upgrade — being dubbed “updategate” — can reverse the process if they wish. “If you click on OK or on the red box with an”X” in the upper left corner, you’re all set for the upgrade and there is nothing further to do,” says Microsoft on its website. “When you close this pop up, your PC will upgrade at the scheduled time. Based on customer feedback, in the most recent version of the Get Windows 10 (GWX) app, we confirm the time of your scheduled upgrade and provide you an additional opportunity for cancelling or rescheduling the upgrade.” Gee, thanks MS for making that clear…NOT.

All Windows 7 users who don’t want Windows 10 should choose to cancel. Under no circumstance should you accept the upgrade until you have confirmed your computer is supported for Windows 10 by checking your computer manufacturer’s website to confirm that your exact model is on their list of models the manufacturer supports for a Windows 10 upgrade. If the site says the upgrade to Windows 10 is not supported or un-tested do not do it. Some manufacturers make finding their list difficult to find. Be persistant. I have included links for some manufacturers below.

HP: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/ads/windows10/upgrade.html

I highly recommend making a system image backup onto an external memory device before doing the upgrade in all cases; in case something goes wrong you will be able to recover.

IT for idiots – Advice needed

Since installing Windows 10 (on a Lenovo laptop that’s just a few months old), I have been unable to save Word docs in pdf. I took my laptop in to our local cyber shop (from where it was bought) and the technician re-installed Adobe reader (which had disappeared) but this hasn’t helped. I’ve ‘asked Cortana´ on my laptop, and it seems I am not alone! However, the answers are complex and conflicting, and all way beyond the ken of an IT idiot like me. I don’t want to just take it back to the shop again, as I’m not convinced they are completely on top of Windows 10 problems (is anybody?).

Has anyone else in Digameland encountered this problem? Is there a simple (and I mean SIMPLE!) answer…? or other suggestions?

Answers to Digamextra, please. LS

Opinions

Cats

(Some these come in response to an article by Guy Massey )

(1)

I really get fed up with “mans” usual solution to animal problems and that is to kill them especially when it is often “mans” irresponsibility that has caused the problem in the 1st place. As anon 2 (the cat hater) says, the cats could be caught and sterilized – so why doesn’t the mayor do that – why do the animal lovers have to do it when we know it is certain irresponsible residents (animal owners as opposed to animal lovers) of Archez who have caused this problem by not getting their cats (and dogs) sterilized. You will find it is the animal lovers who do go the extra mile and do sponsor sterilization programs and do adopt but it is about time the authorities stepped up and took on some of this burden caused by their residents/rate payers. Of course the mayor should be criticized for this cruel solution – she is in charge – the buck stops with her. Animal lovers are providing food to council run perreras because dogs are starving to death and dying due to a lack of veterinary treatment and animal groups are doing all they can already. I would also say that I have yet to see a trap that can differentiate between a domestic cat out for a prowl and a feral cat. I believe anon 1 was warning re the traps so that people could keep their pets in, which was more constructive than the message from anon 2 who only seems to want to vent about their dislike of feral cats but wants someone else to solve the problem and inappropriately directs their venom at animal lovers apparently expecting them to be responsible for every animal in Spain and possibly on the planet.

M.Morton

Although this warning is a very sensible one to let local cat owners know of the danger to their well kept domesticated pets. Archez does have a major problem with feral cats, in recent times their numbers have increased significantly and artificially. I say artificially as some people, both Spanish and foreign, put out food for the feral cat population. This upsets the local balance, where the ferals should be hunting for survival and their numbers controlled by the naturally available food.

Please think twice before doing this, unless you are actually taking the animal in as a pet. The action of the Mayoress is based on the many complaints received from the village population.

Re Archez Feral cat capture programme.

Before the mud slinging starts I would like to state a few facts

1/ As a resident in the village of Archez I feel a prior warning to those of us with domesticated cats would have been a polite thing to do. I have one cat who likes to roam the streets at night, when the traps are being put out…..by the way, he uses his own litter tray in my house.

2/ I do recognise there is a problem with the feral cats in the village something needs to be done. However I know as a fact that the town hall has had the offer of help with a capture and sterilization programme with the help of a local charity, as seen working in Competa and Sayalonga. So why not take up that offer? I have adopted two other cats from the bins, I was informed yesterday that at least three cats have appeared this week, so are people dumping these cats?

3/ Anyone visiting the village would not witness the numerous small dogs left to roam leaving deposits in the street and on the pavements. I have never seen a feral cat squatting down on a path or in the streets.

4/ I visited the town hall yesterday to be told the cats captured will be taken to Rincon de la Victoria and working with a local charity there they will be neutered, inoculated and re-homed. Good luck to them if that’s what is happening rather them than me trying to tame a feral cat.

Finally as a plea to our new Mayor please start communicating with your residents and understand us being kept in the dark is not a positive political move.

Lyn….. A permanent resident in the peblo of Archez.

(4)

Firstly thank you to the original subscriber who brought the action of Archez town hall to everyone’s attention. Without this information no one would have been any the wiser to the action of the mayoress.
I feel it would have been in the interest of everyone concerned that notifications should have been given prior to the actions being taken. When voted in the voters were informed that there would be greater co-operation between all parties.
The subscriber on Wednesday is totally misinformed regarding the cat situation and I would treat his/her remarks with the contempt they deserve.
Several cats in Archez have been neutered/ sterilised in a programme set up by a lady in the village and CAS with the blessing of the previous mayor.
I personally spoke with a Councillor in Archez and asked him to liaise with the mayor with a view to setting up a new neutering /sterilising programme. I offered to make a substantial donation to start the project. I did not receive any reply. The town hall obviously opted for a cheaper method of dealing with the situation.
Last evening I spoke to a very concerned English lady who has 3 cats all ex feral and neutered/ sterilised. A cage had been placed outside her home. The lady spoke to a Councillor who informed her that the cats were being caught and placed in cages within the almacen below the old town hall. Anyone concerned that their cats may have been caught in the traps can go to the almacen at 11am on Friday morning to view the cats and retrieve there own. The Councillor stated that the cats were being trapped and taken to Rincon where they will be neutered/sterilised and then re homed. Is that why they are capturing all cats whether privately owned, neutered/ sterilised.
Archez village is generally well kept .I visit the village daily and I have not come across any of the problems apparently experienced by the 2nd subscriber. The mess on the footpaths /roadway is usually caused by dogs and their inconsiderate owners.

Advice Needed – 65 Card

My Andalucia 65 card expires in June, does anyone know if I have to apply for renewal or is it sent automatically.
I cannot find anything on the official website.
Thank for any replies to Digamextra. F&J

IBI discount liable for tax?

Since the second year of living in this house we have had a discount on our IBI (5 years). To get it we applied at the local town hall office, and we had to be on the padron. It is automatically renewed each year. Our IBI is high so it is worth having.

This year our Gestor tells us we must pay income tax on the discount amount for 2015. When she applied to the Hacienda for the details they had on our tax liability, it was shown there as a gain, I’ve seen the form. She says it is causing a lot of people trouble.

Anyone else in this situation? Is this a new tax rule sneaked in with the ‘changes’ this year?

Reply to Digamextra please for general interest.

R & M

Addendum received – I have further investigated this and have been told the discount on IBI for being on the padron was always taxable. In 2015, for the first time, the town halls have reported it to the Hacienda. So you need to declare as they already know about it.

Tax on a tax discount? Crazy, but that’s the situation R&M

Rental Company –

I would be interested to know if there are other Digamextra subscribers who use Owners Direct to advertise their holiday rental properties. Since Experian bought the company about 1 year ago things have changed, many not for the better. The latest scheme to extract more revenue, starting 1st June, is to charge the traveller 7.98% average of their total rental costs on the pretext of more protection against fraud, double booking etc. This is available from travel insurance companies along with the flight cancellation etc, at a much lower cost. I suspect that many will be put off from booking on this website, as this could easily add another £80.00 to a 2 week booking at £500 per week. The other point is that we entered into a contract with Owners Direct, which did not include this additional charge to the traveller. Is this a contravention of our contracts by Owners Direct, imposing new charges before the current 1 year contracts have expired?

Comments please to Digamextra.

Recommendation -Top of the Kitchen Liga
We recently damaged a door in our kitchen (entirely our own fault).

We contacted Raul at Sunkitchens who supplied and fitted the kitchen some 4 years ago and they arrived next day and informed us that they would order

a new door. This arrived within 7 days and was fitted at a very reasonable cost.

It is so important for a company to offer an after sales service, so well done Sunkitchens.
If you need a kitchen with a great back up service contact Raul 653634633 or sunkitchenscocinas @ gmail.com

Recommendation Little Jewel in Torrox Pueblo

Do you remember the Indian restaurant(Shalimar) in Torrox Pueblo, well it’s not there anymore, but has been replaced by a lovely pizza bar, selling homemade pizzas. It has reverted back to the old Spanish bar name “Bar El Capao”.

They are open from about 8.30am for breakfast, they have a lovely choice of tapas, homemade cake with coffee.

Run by a lovely, “nothing is too much trouble” couple.

Go & give it a try.

It’s just through San Roque, just past the old red church. P&L

Recommendation- Campo, Tree Work & Gardening services

I’d like to highly recommend a good Spanish friend who can carry out all aspects of gardening and campo work. From clearing, strimming, spraying, tree felling & pruning and fruit harvesting. He has all professional equipment, including strimmers and chainsaws etc, and is an incredibly hard worker at excellent rates. To contact him direct (Spanish speaking only), call Samuel on 628 441 205 or call/whatsapp Phil (English) on 657 149 712 or email phillymc @ fastmail.fm

Recommendation – Auto-Gestor

With regard to the enquiry about recommendations for an autor-gestor in the Nerja area. I can highly endorse Secure Solutions in Nerja. The website is www.securesolutions.es and the phone number is 952 523 925. Adam has now transferred 2 cars for us from UK to Spanish plates (the most recent being quite complex) and has done so in an efficient and timely manner.. Chris

Recommendation- Oven Cleaning

Yet another recommendation for Steve of Axarquia oven cleaning, he came to my house yesterday and I now have an oven that looks like it has just arrived from a shop.

It seems an extravagance but since I have had bad hip problems cleaning the oven is a job I dread and it was so nice to have it done properly as I could never get it this clean.

Cats in Archez

Having just read the anonymous and venomous article about the Mayoress of Archez trapping cats with a view to killing them I feel that a riposte is required.

I have no particular attachment to Mari Carmen Moreno Cordoba, the Mayoress nor to disease and cancer ridden feral cats or other animals.

I do, however, dislike being surrounded and clawed at by the (lets be polite and call them ) feral cats every time I visit Archez.

I dislike having to wend my way carefully between their deposits on the roads and paths. I dislike having cats visit my property and dig up plants that I have bought and they destroy.

I dislike having to clear their droppings from my patio. I think you will get the picture.

I have no wish to harm the feral animals, but, and here’s the but… there are too many! Something must be done to control the numbers. If all the animal lovers out there are willing to feed them, and yes they are fed by many which encourages the growth in their population, then instead why don’t they catch them, give them a home, get them to the vets, get them neutered, sterilised etc and begin to solve the problem.

Why write a vindictive attack on a Mayoress, who did not make this decision in isolation (implied by the anonymous writer 23/5/16).

The Mayoress is simply doing what needs to be done as the problem is now endemic. So, let’s have a challenge if you don’t want the current action to be repeated until the problem is solved – instead of writing malicious dirges and feeding the feral population – do something positive to solve the problem and get them off the streets.

Services Needed –Internet Provider

Just over two years ago, I purchased a small wireless 3G router with the Internet being provided by Midas Telecom in Fuengirola.

At the time, it was possible to switch the service on and off when I went back to the UK (I don’t live in Spain full time) by paying a small re-connection charge.
This is now not possible with Midas Telecom, so I am looking for another provider who can offer this service at a reasonable price.

I would be grateful for any recommendations – I live in El Morche.

What’s on –Affordable Art in Frigiliana

Captain Slog, stardate 28th. May 2016.
Space is still the final frontier, but the away-team landed today and boldly entered a world with no space at all – Joe Boyle’s art studio in La Molineta, Frigiliana.
Wall-to-wall paintings and sculptures left no room for further creations and we found the artist almost numb with frustration and hidden behind a pile of canvases unable to be displayed.
Under our Prime Directive we were compelled to help him – to bring space to his walls and open, once more, the portals of creativity for the sake of future generations.
We suggested the following:-
That this Saturday, 28th. May should be an open-day from 10.00 to 14.00 with 20% shaved off the already low prices, and 10% of the total takings given to Cudeca.
La Molineta can be found on the main Nerja-Frigiliana road, half a kilometer before Frigiliana, and near to a fantastic tapas bar.
The Federation has provided wine with which to browse through the works (also blood-wine – a well-known cure for the Klingons) at absolutely no obligation to buy.
We urge you to beam-down and to go where many people have gone before, but (just lately) not enough.

axarquia animal rescue has been informed ( AAR )

Many Items to be sold in aid of Charity

I have many household items ranging from a home cinema, DVD players, video players, computer flat screen and 1 laser printer and several other printers. Bags of DVDs and CDs, kitchen items like coffee makers, glasses, large circular CD holder, framed prints and lots of LPs – the list is endless.

I would like them to go to a charity if at all possible but if they are taken by a private seller I would like a donation to my own charity CAT. The only stipulation is that everything must go together. I am not going to sell or give away anything separately.

I am having to do this because I tried one of people who advertise that they will buy all unwanted goods at good prices. I wanted to make some money for my charity and was offered the princely sum of 20 euros for the lot. I was absolutely appalled. There are more than 40 DVDs which I was selling on my charity stall recently for 1 euro each.

I live in Canillas de Albaida and my mobile is 677 093 972. Do not telephone just send a text message and I will get back to you. These items will go to the first people who can arrange the quickest collection.

Services Available –Broadband- Response

In response to the enquirer on Sunday, it all depends where you are first and foremost. Can’t look at prices until you know you can get a signal. Unless you have a phone connection you will have to rely on an aerial system. Maybe ask neighbours as wireless broadband can by its very nature be patchy. But these days if you get a good signal and supplier you should find the system works ok. Many now offer up to 10mbps and some will give more at extra cost. David A,

Recommendation – Autosol.es

I would just like to mention in response to the enquiry regarding airport travel yesterday that I have discovered a company that I consider to be excellent.

Their prices are comparable, they can transfer up to 19 people and they do vehicles for any occasion ie weddings etc. Thoroughly recommend them

Recommendation Car Air Con

I would like to recommend the services of Chris at cpaircon.

I’d been noticing recently that my car’s aircon was doing very little in the Andalucia heat, I don’t think I ever had cause to switch it on in the UK.

I took my car to Chris for an aircon re-gas. He quickly identified the problem and within an hour I drove my car away with chilled cold air now blasting out of the vents (for the first time that I can remember!)

Chris provided us with friendly, efficient and very reasonably priced service.

There also lots of useful information about car aircon on his website.

You can ring him on 649 307 966, e-mail chris@cpaircon.com or go to www.cpaircon.com

Recommendation-

I endorse the item about Axarquia oven cleaning, when we bought our house although the previous lady of the house was house proud. this did not seem to apply to the oven.

I thought that the base was a black non stick lining not so after Steve’s hard work we now have a oven that sparkles with a grey lining also the cooker hood. I

t’s not a bunch of flowers but a shop full he deserves .

Keep up the good work Steve and more power to your elbow{grease}

Ticket price 4€ per lesson available at the Centre. Proceeds for fund raising.

Tuesday 7^th June – Coach excursion to Mijas & Torremolinos “Botanical Gardens Molina de Inca”. Lux Mundi, Torre del Mar invite you to join friends and visit Mijas Pueblo. A historical and artistic complex situated in the Sierra de Mijas. The Old Town is a typical white Muslim village, with narrow streets and parts of the old walls are still standing offering great panoramic views of the Costa del Sol from the beautiful gardens and cliff walk.

There is a village square and maybe during your free time you can visit the Shrine of Virgen de la Peña, the Church of Imaculate Conception, Bullring, the Shrine of the Calvario and stroll through the narrow streets with its many shops. We suggest that you research the various sites to visit, for opening times and entrance prices, before you go on the trip either via the internet or by contacting the Tourist Office before or during your visit to make the best use of your free time. There will be time for you to enjoy lunch in its varied restaurants after which you will rejoin the coach to the town of Torremolinos.

Here, you will visit the Botanical Gardens of Molina de Inca, which in 1700 was given a licence for Joseph de Inca Sotomayor by the Corporation of Malaga to build two flour mills on land that had a natural spring and these mills after extensive, careful restoration are still working to-day. You are able to see photos, working models and an explanation of how this work was carried out.

Leaving the mill you will find yourself in the gardens which are a joy; there are palm trees from all over the world and a good selection of tropical fruit trees, woodland trees and flowering shrubs. Carefully maintained paths transport you from one vista to another. The four seasons are represented by classical sculptures positioned to symbolise the circular movement of Time and the celebration of various seasonal rites. Around another bend two stone lions remind us of the value of the water they guard and the Japanese garden is a delight. You will then re- join the coach at approximately 17.45 for the return journey to Torre del Mar. Ticket Price 15 Euros available at the Centre. All proceeds to fund raising. Departure times Viñuela (Football Pitch) 8.30am, Algarrobo (Lidl)8.55am, Caleta (Vets) 9.05am and Torre Del Mar (Bus Station) 9.10am. Depart Torremolinos 17.45.
