Don’t Waste Food !

As its the season for tourists and house changeovers in Digameland, this is a plea for you not to throw good food out. At our dog refuge Tail Torrox, we have 4 live in volunteers to feed. Any left over food will be very gratefully received as will any excesses you are given from neighbours or have grown in the garden.

This will help to keep our food costs down which means more money for the ever increasing numbers of dogs we are trying to rehome.

The refuge is situated on the left as you approach Torrox costa next to Mambo graffiti sign and 200 m before Lidl. You can park there too.

For any queries please call Gill 633405560.

Thanks and lets help reduce food waste

Thanks

Helen

Services Available – Swimming Pool Care

This submission is a request for information from all swimming pool owners and managers of rental properties with swimming pools.

Are there any subscribers who are finding it difficult to get the services of a swimming pool technician or maintenance company?

I have been looking for employment with a pool company and as yet have been unable to find any openings. My alternative option would be to set up on my own and relocate, if necessary, to an area where it is evident there may be a shortage of such a service.

Any information that could help me make an informed decision would be a great help and be received with much appreciation.

I have never operated my own business before but have over 30 years experience managing swimming pools and leisure centres , so hopefully, if the need is there, I will be able to provide a high quality service to those that are in need.

I am fully qualified and can provide copies of relevant certification, if required.

With thanks to everyone in advance,

Kind regards,

Mike Wasling,

Venta Baja.

Recommendation Needed – Car Rental

Car rental advice please!  We normally drive from the UK to Competa but thought we might try flying again.  We’ve been a bit put off by the stories over the years of alleged rip-offs – high rental costs, fuel tank fills, insurance, huge deposits etc.  I know there have been a lot of recommendations and advice in the past in Digame, so I wonder whether anyone can help me by recommending their favourite company for us to use in the next couple of weeks?  I would be so grateful.  Thanks, Lynda

Recommendation for Steven Rowle Animal Practice

Dear Digamites and Animal Lovers

I recently engaged Steven Rowle to help me with our two dogs. They were both rescue dogs and taken on within a short time of each other. They quickly joined together with really bad behaviour. Chico became very aggressive towards other dogs and sometimes people and Lolita could be quite destructive in the home and disobedient. My husband and I had tried everything  to change these patterns with little success and life was becoming quite miserable at times.

I was initially a bit sceptical, but Chico, I discovered from Steven, was carrying a lot of fear and unhappiness from his former life and Lolita was quite depressed. But, Hey Presto! they are now the total opposite. After Stevens visits I watched the change take place each week. Its all about energy, there’s and ours I believe. We had to change the way we looked at things and take on a new rule book but it was all worth it! He even gave us a personnalised aftercare pack for us to refer to.

Can anybody please recommend a good and reasonably priced Car Mechanic, in or near the Caleta/Algorrobo area, or a mobile one. An urgent clutch replacement is needed. There are plenty here, but I want one that is recommended.

Recommendation- Van Repair Service – excellent

I had been thinking of getting my old Ford Transit sign written for a while but its a 2001 and a bit tired to say the least

I’ve  been following the Facebook plaudits for Warren Phillips for a couple of months and decided to give it a go.
The old van was various shades of matt white with scratches and dings all over but is now shiny and respectable

My seats are clean and repaired and the old girl is ready for some nice advertising down the side, and he did all this in 3 days.

Recommendation Needed – Water Softener

Does anybody out there have a water softener fitted and if so has this improved your water quality and reduced calcium build up in pipes.

I have a problem with slow hot water running from the taps, we have a pumped system and we are low down at the bottom of a hill & we get a lot of calcium in the water supply.
Any information or answers on solving the problem would be grateful.

Recommendation – Table Top Restaurant

Just wanted to tell all Digamites that the Table Top Restaurant in Los Ventorros  just outside Comares is well worth the trip
Having visited yesterday for lunch following the walk around Comares just the perfect finish to a trip out.

Food absolutely fab, seating area at the front just lovely and great helpful staff
Then just 50 metres away in both directions, you have Bob and his bits!!(plus his new pups ‘Chica’ and ‘Jay’ – who are not for sale) and Retro with guess what? Antiques and retro bits, just a great little place for quirkiness!
All well worth the trip, and it’s really not that far!

EU Court Confirms That Receiving Pirate IPTV Streams Is Illegal AND Facebook Now Bans Posting For Sale IPTV/KODI Boxes That Include Piracy Add-Ons and All Other Items Aiding Unauthorized Access to Digital Media

In April, the ECJ declared such devices illegal to sell while clarifying that users who stream pirate content to their homes are also breaking the law. Read about it here:

https://torrentfreak.com/selling-piracy-configured-media-players-is-illegal-eu-court-rules-170426/

Sale of KODI boxes with pre-installed IPTV piracy add-ons, as well as “pirate” satellite access gear, is now banned from Facebook. “Sale of the following is prohibited on Facebook: #13. Products or items that facilitate or encourage unauthorized access to digital media.” face-rules

Read more about it here:

https://torrentfreak.com/facebook-bans-sale-of-piracy-enabling-products-devices-170525/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

Typically the first offense gets you a warning and the post deleted, repeat offenders can have their account temporarily blocked, gross offenders can have their account closed.

Contact me if you’d like to discuss legal IPTV options or protecting your internet connection using a VPN. I don’t sell these services so I can offer unbiased info.

Services- Response

Yesterday there was a post called “Service needed – Mail”, which I found quite unfair towards the ordinary Spanish postal service.

During the last 6-7 years I have sent several hundreds letters

through the ordinary Spanish mail service, to many different countries all over the world.

Not even one single letter has gone lost.

The Spanish post office employees might be busy now and then, but my experience is that when it comes to your turn, they are both friendly, helpful and reliable.

It might be that they only speak their native language, – just as all postal workers in UK do,

– therefore it’ll be an advantage if you speak some Spanish, or get help from someone who knows the language.

Kind regards

Peter

Services Available –Spanish Teacher

I was trying to answer an ad who was post today: services Neeed- Spanish Teacher.  But the E-mail adress: Benjyevans45 at gmail dot com, seems that is not correct. So herewith my response

–     Good afternoon Benjyevans45,

My name is Pablo Díaz, I’m 28 years old and I’m a Spanish licensed Teacher . Actually I am giving private classes of Spanish, English, mathematics, etc.. to boys and girls from 6 to 14 years and to adults also.

I have been living in the R.U. for 2 years

I have been working  for Macharaviaya’s  Town hall as sports Monitor for children  since I was 17 years old . This helped me to pay my studies .

The only problem is that I live in Macharaviaya and that is not Frigiliana/ Nerja area. But I have a car and for me it is not a problem to go if I have classes a minimum of 4 hours the same day.

Best regards

Pablo Díaz – c/o  Sonia Tena s1954tena @ gmail.com

Recommendation- House Sitters

We went for a short holiday, and used Sarah and Tony to house sit and look after our 14 dogs.

The dogs were so happy, Sarah played with them, and gave them plenty of cuddles.

Our house was spotless when we arrived home, and the dogs can’t wait for us to go away again and have more  fun  with Sarah and Tony.

We have booked them already for our next short holiday in a couple of months, so many thanks from all the dogs and Bob and Sheila. S/T sitters 636164514

2 Cats Need a Home

I am looking for someone to take my two cats in, either permanently –

if you like them or for a month to 6 weeks.

I have to move out of my apartment in 2 weeks

(I think the landlord has sold it).

It’s right at a time I’m working away.

If you could help, I would very much appreciate it.

Please contact Jeff on 609 403 701 or email jgathwalker @ yahoo.com

 

Be very careful what you say in emails!

Once it’s out there you can’t drag it back!

Where Diggers are asking for information, or on services,

so they can make an informed choice on who or what to use….

the law in Spain is quite explicit, even in personal emails not for publication.

Just read what Jane has to say in the ‘terms of use’ section of Digamextra, defamation can be costly, even if it’s true!

Recommendation – Casa el Castano

A quick recommendation for Casa el Castano.

We stayed at this lovely Casa Rural last weekend and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Set in the mountains near Martos, close to Jaen, it has stunning views and is perfect for a chill-out weekend.

Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts Sharon and Chris and they went out of their way to make sure we had a lovely time.

A couple of days of relaxation and pampering is good for the soul and we’ll certainly be heading back again soon.

Rental Needed – For Adult Student

Looking for student accommodation for an (adult) IT student at Jorge Guillen Torrox.

He works part time in a bar at El Morche and is clean living (no smoking, drink or drugs!).

The requirement is just for a room with a desk and a bed, Wi-Fi facilities (important for his studies), shared bathroom/kitchen facilities.

Proximity to Torrox and El Morche is important as he depends on public transport.

If it helps, he speaks fluent Spanish as well as English.

would welcome extra income, or if you know of anyone who can provide this

type of accommodation.

Fuengirola Medieval Market 18th August

The event is unique in Spain, as it takes place within an authentic Arab fortress of the time. Sohail Castle in Fuengirola, a restored Moorish fortress and converted into a auditorium which hosts a variety of musical events during the summer months, has been for some years the perfect setting for the celebration of the Medieval Market in Fuengirola.

At this market you can find all kinds of products and activities that make the visit a time travel to the time of the bards, the craft guilds, traditional gastronomy, etc.

Workshops for clay, bread, leather, toys, jewelry and woodwork will allow visitors to see how they made those products, without industrial action, in ancient times.

Other attractions are archery, donkey rides, witches, fortune-tellers, stilts, storytellers, children’s games, juggling, costumes of the time  and street theatre.

This market in Fuengirola Sohail Castle is considered to be one of the best in Spain because of its location.

Price? €14.50 pp includes coach fare and driver’s gratuity

Depart Algarrbo Lidl at 17.30 returning at 23.30 from Fuengirola

Segovia – 11th – 15th October 2017

Aranjuez – a night at the 4* Hotel Palacio de Aranjuez

For centuries, the kings and queens of Spain have chosen to spend the spring months in the Palace of Aranjuez, situated in a low-lying meadow formed by the confluence of the Tagus and Jarama Rivers. Thanks to its vast, stunning gardens, Aranjuez was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in December 2001.

The Royal Palace of Aranjuez

In 1561, Philip II, echoing a previous plan drafted by his father emperor Charles V, ordered the old Aranjuez residence to be replaced with a new building which was the precursor of the present Royal Palace. In 1715, Philip V continued with the construction and built the entire structure that presently makes up the main body of the palace. Between 1660 and 1665, it was affected by serious fires and Fernando VI undertook its reconstruction. During the reign of Charles III two side wings, which make up the western part of the building, were added, thus reflecting the taste for French things at the time. Its decor combines Rococo, Elizabethan, Chinese and Moorish motifs. Its restoration was completed last year after ten years of building works.

The Old Quarter

The Old Quarter of Aranjuez has been declared a Historic Artistic Monument as it is a unique example of Baroque town planning. Designed in 1747 by Giacomo Bonavia, from its very beginning it was set to be a noble area that would house buildings of a dignified construction. Its impressive houses with courtyards, domes, mansions, convents, balconies, squares and spacious streets are testimony of four centuries of history.

The Gardens

The gardens that surround it were planned, built and decorated for centuries with the same refinement and care as the building of the Royal Palace. Using Versailles as a model, the idea was to control nature in order to turn the garden into yet another room of the palace. The Jardín de la Isla boasts extensive woodlands, grand avenues and numerous stone and marble fountains devoted to characters and scenes from Greek mythology. On the other side, lies the Jardín del Parterre, famous for its abundant and diverse display of flowers. The Jardín del Príncipe, the largest of all, features broad walkways and a great variety of species of trees.

Continuing on to the end we come to the Casa del Labrador, one of the most splendid buildings of the Bourbon Dynasty. Very close to the jetty stands the Falúas Museum, where one can see the luxurious vessels which sailed on the Tagus and belonged to Charles IV, Ferdinand VII and Alfonso XII.

Segovia – 2 nights at the 3* Hotel Acqueducto

Unesco World Heritage–listed Segovia has always had a whiff of legend about it, not least in the myths that the city was founded by Hercules or by the son of Noah. It may also have something to do with the fact that nowhere else in Spain has such a stunning monument to Roman grandeur (the soaring aqueduct) surviving in the heart of a vibrant modern city. Or maybe it’s because art really has imitated life Segovia-style – Walt Disney is said to have modelled Sleeping Beauty’s castle in California’s Disneyland on Segovia’s Alcázar. Whatever it is, the effect is stunning: a magical city of warm terracotta and sandstone hues set amid the rolling hills of Castilla, against the backdrop of the Sierra de Guadarrama.

On the way to Toledo we will be visiting the Vallley of the Fallen.

Toledo – a night at the 4* Hotel Don Alfonso

Synagogues, mosques and churches stand together in Toledo’s historic quarter, a testament to the medieval Spanish city’s diverse history. The four towers of The Alcazar, a fortress built in 1085, dominate the skyline. Toledo and its surrounding countryside inspired El Greco, and his paintings are on display in many places around the city, including the museum that bears his name.

Dates:  11th – 15th October 2017

Price: €310pp based on 2 sharing

Single Supplement €115

Price includes Coach fare, Driver’s gratuity, B&B accommodation, Visit to the Valley of the Fallen

Ollie is looking for a foster or forever home 

Ollie is looking for a foster or forever home. He arrived in our hamlet in
Los Gallegos, Comares, near Velez-Malaga, very skinny and submissive.
We can’t keep him as we have two rescue dogs and two rescue cats.
He likes chasing our cats! He’s so sweet and friendly.
Loves cuddles and coming for walks with us. We had the vet check him over. He’s not chipped. He didn’t have a collar we put that on him along with the leish collar.
If anyone can give him a foster home or forever home he so deserves it.
Please email me on loueverson @ gmail.com if you can help or know anyone who can give Ollie a loving home.

 

 

Does anyone recognise this dog?

Male, appx 4/ 5 months. Found by roadside bins near Los Romanes.
No collar or chip.
Can anyone offer a foster home while we look for an owner or try to re-home please?
He´s a lovely natured pup, quick to learn, playful, affectionate and calm in the car.
We currently have him in kennels which isn’t an ideal environment for a pup so young.

I have recently had a full eye test in the UK but I couldn’t get an appointment to get a contact lense fitting before my return to Spain.

Can anyone recommend an English speaking optician who will perform a contact lense test.

Did you “Rescue” this Missing Cat ??

​I am enquiring for our Spanish neighbour about his ginger cat of 14 years.

It went missing about 3weeks ago now in the Casa Mena  Torrox Campo, Someone told him that a lady was seen taking a ginger cat away , possibly she thought that it was abandoned

Our neighbour is hoping that the cat is still ok and that it may be returned to the area it was taken from

Thanking you in anticipation that all goes well with this request .

Recommendation – Casa Magel B&B
We have just returned from a wonderful two night stay at Casa Magel on the outskirts of the village of Valle de Abdalajis about a 30 minute drive from Antequera and would highly recommend it.  This little gem is truly a wonderful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the coast.  A large double bedroom en suite with breakfast and one evening meal included all for the incredible price of 100 euros for 2 nights. The pool and BBQ area are set in beautiful gardens and any advice we needed on the area was provided by the wonderful host Maggie.  I truly cannot fault this little oasis for cleanliness, facilities and tranquility, our only regret is that we could not stay longer but we will definitely revisit.

Treatment Caution

Not wishing to trample on other peoples firmly held beliefs but – I would advise anyone thinking of trying such treatment to Google the phrases   “Bio electrical energy therapy cancer scam” and or “Bio electrical energy therapy scam”, before trying such treatments on themselves or their pets, where alternative thoughts on this subject can be obtained

 

 

What Bird of Prey is This ?

I’m sure there is  Digamist out there who can tell what this is – sorry about shaky camera – long way away and very large bird !   Dropped like a stone to the mountain top after prey I think …..In my little bird book it could be a Bonelli’s Eagle – I think all these birds should carry identity documents ………

Recommendation-

I went to the Alhambra last week with friends and we were also having difficulty getting tickets, but I found out if you book accommodation to stay over night most hotels hold tickets to sell to guests, I found this Pension Venecia Gomerez  which is situated in the historic centre of Granada perfect for wandering around the Cathedral etc. and the many tapas bars, it was a 20min walk to the Alhambra or there is a bus running up and down very frequently.

The web site is http://www.veneciagomerez.com telephone +34607060750 Carlos is the owner and speaks English, there were 3 of us we booked the apartment which cost 60 euros a night, it was very nice spotlessly clean and ever thing you needed would thoroughly recommend it, he also has just rooms which I did not see but would imagine the same standard he got our tickets for the palace which were 15 euros plus a 5 euro booking fee each, there is also parking for a fee which we didn’t use as we caught the bus from Nerja,

Hope this helps and I have to say it is worth staying overnight to enjoy the rest of Granada

best regards

Audrey
