Found Cat ! 

This stunning, friendly, castrated boy has been found in Nerja center ( c/Cristo – Almirante Ferrandiz-  around no. 58) apparently looking for somewhere to stay since yesterday evening. Might be that he is strolling around since some days already although you don’t see it as he is in good  condition. He has been checked for a chip but none was found. He was found with a collar with bell and an anti-flea collar so he probably has an owner. Does anyone recognise him or know who his owner is please? Right at the moment he has a foster home until Wednesday. Please get in contact with+34656 82 94 22

Rental Car Problem…..Solved  Hurray to my wife Lesley  . We were in the UK.Lincolnshire. We needed a car for 4 days and went on-line Car Rentals Kirmington Humberside Airport.   Great Lesley only used the car 2 days, 150 miles at the most .She returned the car confronted by a scruffy  lazy person at euro car where just signed  her off ,no inspection of the car which was –  I swear – as she picked it up. 4 weeks later the deposit of 204£ had not been refunded .The euro car claimed she had exceeded  her mileage allowance by 1600 miles ???? When Lesley challenged them 5 times they finally sent a copy of the rental from Humberside Euro Car which declared she had travelled 160 miles. Rental cars have now apologised and refunded the 204 £ with 20 percent discount ! !!!. The moral of the story is stick to your rights .Well done Lesley .

New Women’s Group ? I have been wondering lately how many women there are in the Torrox /Nerja area who would like to get together to form new friendships.   A bit like a book club without the books.  An informal discussion of a topic we choose the week/month before – mothers and daughters/sons, trust, health, that sort of thing. The list is endless. Basically anything under the sun. A good gossip around a chosen topic.   No decision yet on where or how often we meet. I suppose that depends on numbers.   Let me know what you think. I think it’s something I’d enjoy. Hopefully somebody else does too.
Please email me on     lamcg59@googlemail.com

Services Available-Electricity Disruption 

Many times, when there is a storm (thunder/lightning), the supply will often trip out, it is always the main switch (RCD/RCB) “Interruptor diferencial in Spain” in the consumer unit that trips.  When you are away, you need a continuous service in fridge, alarm, swimming pool, that requires a continuous electricity supply.  In this case, it is possible to install a Self-reclosing RCCB to ensure service continuity.

Lost Dog is not Lost      I did try to send a text to Mette and Arne who put the photo of the dog in Digame yesterday but I’m not sure it went OK. This is the second time that this dog has been in Digame but he is not lost, He belongs to a Spanish neighbour and it has a tendency to roam the campo whilst it is out of its compound. He tries to lock it into his stable or greenhouse, but it escapes. If a dog is fed by someone else he will no doubt want to keep returning to them so we do not encourage or feed any loose dog we see as it probably does belong to someone. Barbara

We Have Found a Lost Dog 

He has a necklace in Andalucian colors, but no chip.   Contact:  Mette and Arne Fjeldberg, tlf. 0034 640 219 615

 

We Have Found a Lost Dog ?  We’ve found a lovely little dog, in our bed, who has managed to jump up, get through the wreckers of our bedroom, come in and settle in!!  She has spent three of the past five nights with us and seems to be making a habit of it.  She is small, has a longish snout, and is white with large, reddish-brown spots, ears and short tail. She has a black collar and two thin metal plates with numbers engraved on them.  We cannot keep the dog, although she’s as friendly as can be, so we are hoping that someone is looking for her.Any suggestions by a shelter or somebody in the know would be welcome as we don’t know exactly know what to do if she keeps coming back. We live just outside and above Competa on the road which joins the cafe Venta de Palma and the petrol station, not far from the pet shop.  Contact us on 634351754 or write to: puchkauzon1@gmail.com. Thanks in advance, Paul

European pet protection and animal welfare law passed in Spain
A European directive on animal protection will finally enter Spanish law and come into force in February – 30 years after it was passed.   Among other requisites, the new law will ban docking or removing tails, cutting ears and de-clawing unless they are for purely medical reasons, meaning these practices for aesthetic means, to stop cats ruining furniture or to make hunting hounds more aggressive by slicing their ears off will now be outlawed. Anyone who attempts to carry out any of these operations on their domestic animals will be refused by the vet  https://www.eyeonspain.com/blogs/spainnews/17673/european-pet-protection-and-animal-welfare-law-passed-in-spain.aspx

What’s on- Goodbye NADFAS!  Hello The Arts Soc. Nerja!  In May 2017 The National Association Of Decorative and Fine Arts Societies rebranded its name and image after 50 years to more reflect the changes in the activities and scope of the Society and the Society’s Vision: “The belief that the Arts have the potential to enrich peoples’ lives is at the heart of everything we do. We want to be the most inclusive and influential Arts Society”. THE ARTS SOCIETY NERJA itself is approaching its 25 Anniversary and there will be a number of events and exhibitions to celebrate this over the next 18 months.  In 1965 Patricia Fay founded an Antiques Group in the Chilterns and as the Group expanded rapidly she formed the National Association of Decorative and Fine Arts Societies in 1968. In the 1970s NADFAS became a Registered Charity and underwent a period of rapid expansion with the creation of many new Societies across the UK, and the launch of key initiatives such as Church Recording, Young Arts and Heritage Volunteering.  For her inspiration and vision Patricia Fay (who had an untimely death at only 46 years old) received an OBE in 1975.  Today The Arts Society is a leading Arts Education Charity with a global network of 385 local Societies in the UK, Europe and Australasia, which brings people together through a shared curiosity for all aspects of The Arts. There are 90,000+ members worldwide.  The Arts Society’s strength is its Members, joined together by a passion for the Arts which can nourish and empower us all and it would not be where it is today without the dedication and the enthusiasm of the Volunteers who work tirelessly on the Committees that run the Local Societies and support The Arts in all it many forms  The Arts Society Nerja continues to meet on the 2nd Tuesday of each month in the Cultural Centre Nerja from October to May where Members can hear expert, accredited Lecturers who share their specialist knowledge about the Arts. The Society also organises Arts and Cultural Day Tours throughout Andalucía and 5 day Tours further afield to advance Members knowledge and understanding of the heritage of Spain.  The details of which can be seen monthly in the local press and magazines, the local Tourist Offices, The Cultural Centre in Calle Granada and various locations in the area and Visitors to the area a more than welcome to attend the lectures €10 (€5 for other The Arts Society Members from around the world). For further information please visit TheArtsSocietyNerja.com where full details of everything we do can be seen or contact Helen Sijsling on 660 907 856

What’s on- The Nerja Players

Abigail’s Party – The party that has lasted 40 years! (By: Mike Leigh)   To promote the beginning of the Autumn Season, The Nerja Players invite you to come along and take part in a reading of “Abigail’s Party” to be held at premises of The Nerja Bridge Club at the top of Calle Castillo Perez on 17th October at 6.30 for 7.00.    It’s forty years since the appalling Beverly put Donna Summer on the turntable, stacked a plate with little cheesy-pineapple ones, plied her guests with alcohol, cigarettes and Denis Roussos and slow danced her way across the shag-pile into theatrical history.   It is a simple story brilliantly done: the drinks party from hell begins when Beverley and estate-agent husband Laurence invite round new neighbours, Tony and Ange. Invited too, is nervous divorcee Sue, jittery about the bash her teenage daughter Abigail is throwing up the road. As that party reportedly gets out of hand, this one too descends into chaos. Comedy, drama and tragedy combine into an iconic piece of theatre. Mike Leigh’s “Abigail’s Party” is an undisputed classic. For all enquiries please email admin@nerjaplayers.com or visit www.nerjaplayers.com or follow us on Facebook @ The Nerja Players

U.K. Currency Deadlines Approaching     Just a thought but much in the news in the UK is the withdrawal of the old round £1 coins this week and the fact that there are still over 120 million old fivers still out there somewhere you have until spring next year to get rid of your old £10 pound notes but the old £5 needs to go back to the bank of England for a refund. Just as an afterthought…. if you cant be bothered to do anything about the odd £20 you have kicking around in the bottom of a drawer, I feel sure the local animal charities will take them of your hands.   regards Haydn     UK Pound coins….     On behalf of Pippa’s Pawprints, we are looking to relieve you of any “old” British £1.00 coins. You might have one (or some stashed away somewhere). They will soon be illegal tender and being a considerate and helpful organisation, we will be delighted to help you de clutter by picking up any you may have lying around!  Seriously, it would help enormously and it’s no trouble to come and collect. Thank you very much. Give me a shout. Gracias. 622 574 164
