Wanted: Information wanted on NHS pensions/Hacienda. Is there anyone in digameland who gets an NHS pension paid not by the local authority but the Paymaster General?

Recommendations

Amazon Problem: We order stuff from Amazon and have Prime but were surprised to find that it does not operate in Spain; an additional and separate subscription is required here. We wanted to order several items from the UK site that were not available locally here in Cómpeta, but none could be delivered to Spain, so we ordered from the Spanish site instead – how we wish we hadn’t! Only the items sourced by Amazon ES from the UK arrived and on time. Despite the web site showing that the other items were in stock it turned out weeks later that they were not. And to add to our irritation Amazon ES rejected publication of our factually correct review. We hope that Jane’s recovery continues and we also like the new Digame.
Thanks. James ; james.mcculloch100 @ gmail.com

Identification Information from Everyone – I will not publish your submission unless you have included your first name and location. I can get your email address from your submission. WHY?

What’s On

The Phoenix Club: Trip to Lucena & Montillar 18th May
Lucena is situated on the Lucena River, a minor tributary of the Genil, on an important crossroads at the very center of Andalusia. Lucena was taken from the Moors in 1240 by King Ferdinand III of Castile, but it remained as frontier village for centuries. In fact, it was in the attempt to recapture it that King Boabdil of Granada was taken prisoner in 1483. The parish church dates from the ending of the 15th century. Our Lady of Araceli is an image brought from Rome in the 16th century and is the patron of Lucena, canonically crowned in 1948.
Our visit includes Montillar – The olive oil of the district is abundant and good, and it is the peculiar flavour of the pale dry light wine of Montilla that gives its name to the sherry known as Amontillado. Montilla is the largest component of the MontillaMoriles designated wine region. The large wineries Alvear and Gran Barquero are located in Montilla, which has an annual vendimia (wine harvest) festival.

Services Offered/Wanted

Computer Services: DoctorLaptop’s May Special. Slow Computer Rescue. My famous Clean & TuneUp Special is back, for Windows & Mac. Until June 01 you can now get 20% off, only €40!
If you rely on your computer and want it running at peak performance, an annual professional servicing is necessary. You wouldn’t drive your car till it runs out of oil before servicing it, would you?
I do the most comprehensive cleaning and tune-up possible: verify all System files replacing any found to be corrupt, test all hardware and do hard disk sector repairs if needed, use 5 tool malware/adware/spyware removal protocol, update Windows+all drivers+programs, pro defrag hard drive and Registry, install free ransomware protection, and finally optimize your settings for fastest overall performance. Job usually completed overnight. Heavily infected comps or those showing error messages need a repair, not a maintenance service. Hard disks of 1000Gb or more add €10 and may require 2 days to complete. Contact: doctorlaptop @ protonmail.com or call 675 993 069 (no calls b4 11am).  https://doctorlaptop-repairs.webnode.com/
