Services NeededAdvice for Telephone Service
Can anyone suggest where we could for a cheap telephone service?
Currently BB4S provide us with English T.V.and the internet. Our phone is a telefonica landline.

BB4S were supposed to be providing the cheaper phone service but due to a fire they have been unable to do this and we are left with telefonica.

International calls are expensive and probably local calls as well.

Our monthly bills are very high.

Advice would be gladly received.

Contact by email:- jilljohnbarker @ yahoo.co.uk or

phone 952508821.
Thank you

Recommendation –Holiday accommodation registration

Following successful letting of my finca,

I am now required to register the accommodation with the Andalucian authorities.

Has anyone filled in the form, submitted it and had their property registered or has engaged a “professional” to do the job for them? I would be grateful for advice as. having seen the form, I would definitely struggle on my own.

Recommendation –Bowen Therapy

Further to the post by Freya, I too had Bowen Therapy for a painful shoulder, after 4 sessions I was able to move my shoulder normally.

If interested go along on a Tuesday morning between 12-2 and ask for Tim.

I have contacted them using the help section in my account.

Go to your account click on help, then select contact.  You will be asked how you would like to contact,  click the ‘chat’ option you can then type your query.  begin by asking to be attended in English. I did this when I discovered I was subscribed to prime and had not chosen to be a member.  They are extremely helpful and efficient.  Hope this works for you

I had some trouble with Amazon.es some time ago and in the end I contacted Amazon.co.uk giving them the order no. and explained the problem. They contacted me by return and sorted it out with Spain.

Jeremy might try that

In answer to Jeremy of Algarrobo, I had a problem with an order that went missing en route from German Amazon, amazon.de, so I phoned Amazon’s help desk in England (tel. 0044 207 084 7911), gave them the order and tracking numbers, explained I couldn’t understand the amazon.de website, and they contacted them for me and sorted it out. Maybe that will work for you. Good luck.

Recommendation-for MRW Courier/Package Deliveries.

Yesterday afternoon, at 4:30pm, I sent off an urgently needed package from from MRW depot located on Calle Verdemar in Torre del Mar. The Package was received at its destination in Cadiz, at a little after 9:00am this morning. Cost was suprisingly reasonable…a little less than 13 euros.

If you are going to send a package, be sure to supply the contact number of the person at the receiving end.

The website for MRW is  www.MRW.es   Their website will provide you with other depot locations that may be nearer to your area. Ellen

Recommendation – Bowen Treatment

Hello Folks.
I am Freya Aswynn I am 67.
I had a very bad fall in London in August, on the way to the airport, it hurt my upper arm.
When I came home, it became worse gradually, I was losing movement.
I could not paint and write/type, swim, housework, I was well f&&ed.
I Googled for Osteopathy and Bianca’s website:clinica-casa-blanca.com
Came up. I made an appointment and went to see her.

She recommended Bowen Therapy and gave me this she is very, very good.
The treatment worked, I had two sessions and I can type again and paint. I can do everything again. I strongly recommend Bianca. She is very gentle and effective and very reasonable priced.

Recommendation-for MRW Courier/Package Deliveries.

Yesterday afternoon, at 4:30pm, I sent off an urgently need packge from from MRW depot located on Calle Verdemar in Torre del Mar. The Package was received at its destination in Cadiz, at a little after 9:00am this morning. Cost was suprisingly reasonable…a little less than 13 euros.

If you are going to send a package, be sure to supply the contact number of the person at the receiving end.

The website for MRW is  www.MRW.es   Their website will provide you with other depot locations that may be nearer to your area. Ellen

Recommendation – Bowen Treatment

Hello Folks.
I am Freya Aswynn I am 67.
I had a very bad fall in London in August, on the way to the airport, it hurt my upper arm.
When I came home, it became worse gradually, I was losing movement.
I could not paint and write/type, swim, housework, I was well f&&ed.
I Googled for Osteopathy and Bianca’s website:clinica-casa-blanca.com
Came up. I made an appointment and went to see her.

She recommended Bowen Therapy and gave me this she is very, very good.
The treatment worked, I had two sessions and I can type again and paint. I can do everything again. I strongly recommend Bianca. She is very gentle and effective and very reasonable priced.

Help Wanted ~ Spanish speaker for conversation

Does anyone know someone who speaks native Spanish for a small group of 3 or 4 mature people who want to improve their “intermediate” level conversational Spanish.

Another alternative would be a person educated in Spain with Spanish and English dual language skills. We are looking for about an hour a week and we could also help a Spanish person to improve their English.

We are willing to travel to Torre del Mar or further along the coast. La Vinuela area

Recommendation – Personal training

I don’t normally give recommendations unless I am really impressed – well I have been very, very impressed by the personal training services offered by Adam Irving of HotBod health and fitness.

I was feeling very unfit and struggled to get up hills without huffing and puffing.

I am an asthma sufferer with arthritic joints. So in the end the more I didn’t exercise the more I couldn’t exercise, it was a bit of a downward cycle.

Then I met Adam just over 8 weeks ago.

He comes to my house twice a week to help me to get fitter – and it’s working.

I can feel the changes happening. Clothes fit better, in fact I am fitting into clothes that I have not worn for years!   I can walk up the big hill in Competa without puffing and I feel so much better in myself

I sleep better and wake up feeling refreshed – I have not felt like that for years!!.

Adam is working to my abilities, but he gently pushes to make me do a bit more each time so I can progress.  He is gentle and does not shout at me.  Overall Adam is a nice young man who works very professionally to give you the best service possible

His prices are not expensive so give him a call and make those changes today.

I did and I feel 100% better already.

41-club

Eighteen couples from 41 Club Nerja (Ex Round Tablers) spent a wonderful three days in Villamora in Portugal at the ‘Cluster’ of the six 41 Clubs on the Iberian Cluster.  The photographs show the team ready to join the rest of the 200 plus members and wives in attendance at the formal gala dinner.  The Clubs involved are found in the Algarve, Costa del Sol, Nerja, Gibralta, Mallorca and Costa Blanca.

Our 41 Club has found eight new members in the last three months taking our membership to forty five and we are always looking for new blood.  Most of our members do not live in Spain full time making us somewhat of a ‘drop-in’ club.  So if you are around from one month to twelve moths per year and you are an Ex Round Tabler you are most welcome.

We have an International flavour to 41 Club Nerja with nine different countries being represented.  We involve our ladies by taking them out for a lunch every first Thursday of the month which we call our ‘Munch Bunch’.  On the third Thursday the gents have our 41 Clib meeting and those wives that wish to join us in the bar for a drink and then go off for a meal and join us later.

Exhibition LUZ-Art from the international Symposium LUZ week in Competa

From 22/10 – 26/11

Calle Laberinto 15 Bajo, Competa

info@ lieuwkeloth.nl

www.luzdelavida.es

LUZ-Art on show from the international Symposium LUZ week

Inspiration fuels art. There are times when the artist desperately chases their muse and times when they patiently wait for it to find them in their studio, but they know that nothing resonates without it. When artists from all over the world come together to share a single workspace for a week, this elusive inspiration naturally starts to percolate. On 16 October 2016, 10 artists traveled from 9 different countries (Belarus, Israel, India, Azerbaijan, Armenia, The Netherlands, Belgium, Hungary and Denmark) to the picturesque mountain village of Cómpeta, Málaga, Spain for the 2nd International Art Symposium LUZ to begin making new works. While they came from different artistic disciplines and spoke entirely differently languages, each artist made the long journey to Cómpeta to share in this exciting new experience together. Organized by Cómpeta artist and gallery owner Lieuwke Loth, the town of Cómpeta turned their Town Hall into the Salón de Actos for one week, inviting visitors to observe and talk with each artist at work. During this period, 17-22 October, these artists were also given the rare opportunity to observe and connect with each other while they worked, learn new processes and techniques, and ultimately use it to inform their own work. The International Art Symposium LUZ gives as much to the town of Cómpeta as it does to its artists. On the first day of the symposium there was a public introduction of each artist along with a slideshow of their work. Then, for the next five days residents and tourists were able to see how the village of Cómpeta influences each artist through the work they produce. While Cómpeta is already thriving with working artists and international visitors, the Symposium event gives both locals and tourists a venue to engage with one another instead of simply passing each other in the town’s narrow streets. This year’s symposium featured a bronze casting workshop, where master caster Daan van Neerven lead participants through the steps of casting their own small wax sculpture in bronze. The group exhibition at the end of the symposium was not just a display of the pieces that were created during this time, but a celebration of Cómpeta’s role in bringing together so many different cultures and nationalities. As artists and visitors left the symposium at the end of the week they undoubtedly returned to their countries describing a place of immaculate beauty, inspiring creative energy, and abundant support for arts and culture. The artists‘ works remain on display at Gallery Luz de la Vida from 22 October through 26 November. The International Symposium puts an international spotlight on this small mountain village, building it a reputation as an exciting, creative haven for artists and art lovers alike. From Saturday 22 October on, all the work is exhibited in Gallery Luz de la Vida to show the final results of the week. The exhibition will be on show till Saturday 26 November.

What’s on- Visit to Rute

The Phoenix Club is off on Friday 25th November 2016 to visit Rute, an inland village in the province of Cordoba.  It is a lovely drive and once there we will visit their chocolate and biscuit factory and ooh and ahh at their famous Belen made entirely of chocolate.  In addition we visit the Azucar Museum where we will see their fabulous sugar creations made entirely of sugar, in the afternoon we will pop into the Anise Museum where we will be able to sample their wares and buy a bottle or two for Christmas and also taste their sausages, a delicacy of the region.

Rute’s primary economy centres on the extensive production of foodstuffs including dozens of different makes of Anis and traditional Spanish hams.

Rute comes from the word “Ruta” or “Route” in English. A route that Spanish soldiers followed when they were going to conquest Granada was the beginning of Rute. Later, the first “anis” factory was opened. Because of this, more factories were opened and this municipality became one of the most important makers of anis for over the world. Today, most of these factories are still open and a lot of people go to Rute at Christmas for the sweets that are made there.

Recommendation- Taekwondo Teacher

If you are thinking of taking up Taekwondo as a new student, already know some martial arts and would like to continue your learning, I would highly recommend the classes that are given by Alan Williams. Lessons are given twice a week, Monday and Thursday mornings from 10:30 to 11.30 am, at the Torrox sports complex.

The lessons always start with a good aerobic warm up, incorporating  stretching and simple gymnastics, then progresses through to learning new, and practicing previous kicks, blocks and strikes. Also taught, are some excellent techniques for good self defence.

Students are both men and women of all ages, some with little or no martial arts experience. Alan is himself a 2nd degree black belt and makes the course challenging but doable for everyone.

I found my renewal in the sport to be invigorating, healthful  and helpful in keeping in shape, and I feel stronger and more confident after each lesson.

I am so pleased that I have enrolled in the classes that Alan has offered and am more than happy to suggest them to you if you have been thinking along the same lines.

You’ll meet some nice folks while you’re there!   Ellen

To all home property owners in the Manzano Alto/Paga Santilla area.

The Town Hall have said that they will part-subsidize some improvements to the track. Please see the associated image. There are various sections currently suggested for improvement – principally the worst parts of the track come the bad weather. However, as the total distance proposed is almost equal to the distance between the existing concreted track (stopping at the water well just past the land fill site) and the concreted junction at the cross roads, I think it worth suggesting that the Town Hall consider concreting this entire length of track – people using this route would all benefit and share the cost equally. The associated image shows the existing concreted zones in blue and the proposed zones in red. Costs are unknown at this time, but the Town Hall have stated that for every three lorry loads of concrete, they will pay for a fourth. So it’s up to us who use this route. I have a list of people interested but would like to hear from others. Anybody with Google Earth on your computers can also click on the attached kmz file which, when double clicked, will open Google Earth on your computer and take you to the zone concerned.

Interested parties please contact me at littlenige at mail dot com. Thanks. Nigel

Car Batteries

An observation on car batteries in general, firstly car batteries have a shorter useful life than you may think

and in this day and age of cars with sophisticated computers even more so, even a small drop in the effective

output of a battery can and often will cause spurious messages to be displayed on the cars warning system which

is exactly what happened to my son a few weeks ago; his car suddenly displayed gear box overheated and refused

to restart, fortunately his garage recognised the problem and changed the battery which instantly cured the problem

and I leave you to imagine the size of the bill had the garage been unscrupulous or just less knowledgeable.

In the in the UK it is recommended that you replace your car battery after a maximum of 4 years and contrary to

what many consider to be the theory that living in Spain makes life easier for car batteries I must point

out that the higher ambient temperatures in Spain in fact shortens the life of batteries, couple this with our short

journey life style you may understand that the poor old car battery actually struggles to keep us on the road.

If you think the above comment is alarmist I suggest you fire up the google and ask the question.

Happy motoring  H W

Evening Lecture on Tuesday November 15th 2016 at 6pm

Magnificent Mosaics – windows into the colourful Roman world

A fully illustrated lecture by Christopher Bradley

Sponsored by  Ole Optica, Opticians in Nerja

Alexander Mosiac, Pompeii The Romans have left us with a remarkable artistic record of their lifestyle, beliefs, achievements and entertainment, in the form of beautiful mosaics. From the best museums and collections around the world we see how they developed earlier Greek designs; the cities in which they lived; the Gods and myths in which they believed; and the exotic and indulgent lives of the Romans themselves – from Britain to Sicily, from Morocco to Syria.

DolphinMosaic, Fishbourne This lavishly illustrated lecture uses only mosaics from start to finish, bringing the distant world of the Romans gloriously back to life with vibrant, colourful images full of action. So, this is the rise and fall of the Roman Empire but as you have never seen it before – through the eyes of the Roman people themselves and the contemporary mosaics they created to reflect and decorate their fascinating, colourful world.

About Christopher Bradley

Christopher Bradley specialises in North Africa and the Middle East. He is also a guidebook writer and photographer; his latest books include The Berlitz Libya Guide 2009 and Insight Egypt Guide 2008. He has also worked as a tour leader and guide of specialist art tours to Tunisia and Libya and as a cameraman and TV producer for the National Geographic, BBC and Channel 4.

Christopher is a frequent visitor to Nerja, having talked to us about the Magi in 2007, the Queen of Sheba in 2009, Libya in 2010 and the Treasures of the Silk Road in 2013.

Morning Lecture on Wednesday November 16th 2016 at 11am

The Spanish Indiana Jones in North Africa 1900-1948

The Spanish Pioneer archaeologists in Morocco in the Golden Age of Archaeology

A fully illustrated Lecture by Manuel Parodi

Sponsored by a Friend of NADFAS

A story of war, kidnappings, Berber Bandoleros, and some Spanish Indiana Jones…

The lecture is about the Spanish archaeologists and historians who developed their research in North Morocco at the time of what in Spain is called the “African War” (1909-1927), when Spain was trying to establish her Protectorate in the Northern part of Morocco in accordance with the results (and the mandate) of the International Treaties signed in the Conference of Algeciras (1906); these scholars worked in the field under war conditions, for instance in the Tetouan area, at the Roman (and pre-Roman) site of Tamuda, war front between 1919 and 1925, where César Montalbán was working in 1919, 1920 and 1921 until the war situation made the archaeological research stop – not to be restarted until 1940.

It is also the period of WW II, when some of our Spanish archeologists in Morocco even had some contacts with the Allies through the American Consolate in Tangier: while the world was struggling in war, some of these heroes of Archaeology and History, such as Pelayo Quintero, were developing their research in several sites as Lixus, Alcazarseguer or Tamuda.

It is a very interesting topic, a period really “apasionante”, with war, battles, pioneers of Archaeology (those are as well the times of Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon in Egypt, for instance) working in the worst conditions, and spectacular results of their research.

About Manuel Parodi

Manuel Parodi, historian and archaeologist, has been working on the History of Archaeology in Northern Morocco and Southern Spain since 2005, and has published several books and articles regarding this particular matter. He has also been working in several Archeological and Historical Research Projects in Morocco since 2005, including the Archaeological Museum of Tetouan, its Archives and historical documents and records.

Services Needed – Urgently !!–

Help!
I was supposed to be driving to Cartama today – (Sunday), but have just had a red STOP sign appear on the computer system as I was driving along, with a battery icon and the words ‘Avería Recarga’.
As I’ve next to no mechanical knowledge, can anyone advise what the problem probably is?

My thoughts are flat battery (why?), alternator failure, loose fan belt.
Is there a mobile mechanic can come to Los Romanes to solve the problem, before I drive into the main agents in Vélez?

It’s a Renault Vel Satis.
In hope,

Google and Bing Search Problem: Searches Returning OLD Contact Links Instead of Newest Links at Top of Results; Until They Fix It, add current year to search terms to get newest results first.

For example, if you search, “doctorlaptop nerja 2016”, it works fine.  However, leave out the “2016” and the results bring you to a 5 year’s old blog site I don’t even remember with outdated info!

While this should be corrected soon, Search Engines are changing and there are problems to be expected , instead of returning the latest, new info on a search term, Google and Bing have been often returning old, out of date search results and burying the new info entries far below. Try http://www.duckduckgo.com for a fresh approach to searching.

Here is the correct contact info for DoctorLaptop. Please write this down for future reference!

Services Needed – Non Resident Tax

(1)

Can anyone tell me what I use for the formula to calculate the 2015 Tax form 210 for Non Residents in Torrox?

Thank you.

dibroomfield @ gmail.com

(2)

Can anyone share their experience of paying the Non Residence Tax without using a lawyer?

We live in Competa Campo.

Thanks in advance.

John. Emsil   lisandjohnbates @ gmail.com

(3)The Answer !

Further to Friday’s post, the formula for calculating this tax has indeed changed.

For properties in Nerja, the formula is :

Valor Catastral x 2% x 19.50%

However, for properties in Torrox, the formula is;

Valor Catastral x 1.1% x  19.50%

The tax needs to be paid by the end of the year.

If you would like us to fill in the form for you, please contact :

Recommendation for Dog Treat Lady

I have just had  delivery of 1 kilo of tripe sticks from a lovely lady called Anna who advertised on Digamextra on Tuesday.
I can highly recommend Anna who gives a friendly, excellent service and really good prices, much cheaper than vet or pet shop.The sticks are of really good quality. My dog is delighted to have his favourite healthy snack again.
Thank you Anna!
Sue
Contact Anna  on  rufuspt35 @ gmail. com

 

 

Recommendation – For Air-Conditioning.
We recommend Keith Bucknell of Cooltec .Tel 663 728 798
Keith fitted air conditioning with attendant service recommended for rental properties in our house here in Torrox earlier this year.
He quoted a fair price, fitted the system within two weeks and was professional and helpful in every way.
He offers good aftercare and support.
Thanks Keith
Anthea and Mike Waters. Casa Anna.

 

 

 

Rental Needed-Long term rental in the Axarquía

Campo or possibly edge of a village, but definitely not in an urbanised area – wanted for 2 or 3 German ladies.

Ideally a finca with more than one building with living accommodation or a large property divided into separate living areas.

No set budget as it depends on the accommodation on offer and how many could share the rental costs.   If you have or know of any property that you think may be suitable please get in touch with me in the first instance and I can then put you in touch with my friend.

Puppy Needs Home

puppy puppy02 puppy03

We are looking for a good home for a lovely, intelligent bitch puppy who was abandoned outside our house several weeks ago.
She has been to the vet and now had her second jag, been deflead & wormed. Vet thinks she is about 10 weeks old now. She has a lovely nature & is so quick to learn. She asks out when she needs to spend a penny & sleeps through the night most nights. We’ve called her Duffy.
It looks as if she’ll be small Labrador size, going by her feet. We go back to the UK on a regular basis, next trip in a few weeks so it is essential to find a home soon. She is also making my wife’s asthma worse but we couldn’t leave her to starve.
Please call me if you would like to meet her.

Recommendation- Car Cleaning

Normally I take someone else’s “recommendations” with a pinch of salt, as I am sceptical as to the motives of the “Recommender”!

However, a few months ago, I read a recommendation for Car Clean Malaga, and owning a 6 year old Ford Focus that hardly had a panel that was not bashed or scraped, I decided to take the plunge and contact Warren to see what he could do.

Talk about turning “A Pig’s Ear into a Silk Purse” (figuratively speaking)!

When I got the car back, I was astonished at what he had achieved in such a short time.

All the scratches, scrapes, minor dents and dull paintwork were gone, and the car glistened with a deep polish shine!

Plus, the interior was spotlessly clean and the engine bay glistened like new.

Suffice to say, I was so impressed, that I gave him my 15 year old VW nine-seater Minibus to work on.

Again he did a fabulous job, inside and out, including a “bottom half” re-spray and it came back looking like it had had a complete body re-spray.

The inside had been deep cleaned and the upholstery looked new.

Many of our friends have commented on how good the “Bus” and Focus now look, and are now in contact with Warren directly !

Recently, we looked at replacing my wife’s pride and joy, her 20 year old yellow Renault 19 Cabriolet, which we lovingly call “The Skip”.

We visited many car showrooms, but we couldn’t find anything she liked, apart from a Audi A4 Cabriolet.

However, it was over 10 years old, on Belgium plates and had 240,000 klms on the clock. The price, ………………. €12,000;  just plain ridiculous!

So, we decided to put “The Skip” through an ITV, to see if it had any major faults. However, it sailed through; and so it too has been given to Warren to work his magic.

This will, no doubt, be his biggest test to date!

It’s having a “recycled” leather interior and seats, (which I collected from Madrid), and the dull and flaking paintwork will be given the full “Car Clean Malaga” treatment.

I fully expect it will come back looking fabulous and I should be the recipient of loads of those elusive “Brownie Points”. (Photos to follow later)

All-in-all, it will have cost us much less to have our three cars given the “Warren” treatment, than trade in and buy a replacement.

So, if your car is looking “tired, with distinctly Spanish paintwork”, speak to Warren on 618 346 098

Sincerely

Ray & Olly
