Birthday Fun at Minigolf La Herradura!:
– Are you searching for an exciting, inexpensive way for your child to enjoy his, her or their birthday amongst friends just 50 metres from the beach in La Herradura? Why not book at Minigolf where the kids can run free over the grounds learning and playing Minigolf, racquet and lawn games, petanca and whatever else you’d like to bring along.
– Pictured are 30 youngins celebrating a nine year old’s birthday a couple of weekends ago. Booked from four to six in the afternoon, the parents had to drag them home at eight, they were having so much fun. With 110 metres to run around in and so much to do there was no staring at phones and iPads, just old-fashioned outdoor play.
– These events are self-catering though tables, chairs, music and of course all equipment is provided for the astounding price of only for six euros per child 12 and under. Bring your own birthday cake, snacks, drinks, party favors, etc., and I’ll bag the trash. There is a small booking fee reserving the venue as a private party if more than 15 guests are planning to attend.
– Parties are available morning, noon or night, the grounds are fully lit, any day of the week. Feel free to ring Scott Huston on +34 603 416 632 with any questions you might have or booking availability. Your child and the others are sure to have a great time and be well looked after.
– We could not be easier to find. We are just two streets off the beachfront Paseo Andreás Segovia, directly behind the market, Centro de Salud, post office and childrens’ playground. For more information and to see a Google map of our location (contact tab), photos, etc, please visit our website: www.minigolflh.es Hope to see you on the special day, Scott/La Herradura

MOONETTE – Organic Skincare for Mature Skin
We are a Torrox-based company specialising in the creation of formulae which help prevent premature skin ageing. We are committed to making effective products at affordable prices.
Your skin health matters to us. How you feed your skin is as important as how you feed your body. Why settle for anything less than natural and organic?
As our skin is the first layer of our defence against microbial infections, ultraviolet radiation and environmental contamination it plays a vital role in our health. As we grow older, however, our skin becomes thinner, wrinkled, and more sensitive; hence it requires the use of treatments containing specific ingredients to the care of treating mature skin.
Recognising this need we have created a range of formulae which help
-slow down ageing process by smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.
-improve facial complexion and eliminate blemishes.
At Moonette, we are passionate about health, beauty and plants. Your skin will benefit from the properties of botanic essential oils combined with a selection of nutrients for deep hydration, cell revitalization and antioxidant effect, all sourced from the finest natural ingredients with gorgeous fragrances.
Naturally, we care about our planet and feel the need to help reduce the sheer volumes of plastics waste that are generated daily around the globe. Presently, we are minimizing the usage of plastic materials in our production while seeking alternative forms of packaging. To help reduce pollution we are asking all local customers to recycle or reuse their Moonette skincare containers, and offering a small discount on future purchases to customers recycling containers.

Fraudulent, bot-powered profiteering blocks DGT appointments for thousands of driving licence exchanges: {Translation, summary}
– A theoretically simple procedure that for many has become a nightmare, no appointments are available, but some “services” can get you an appointment, for a price! At the moment, “we have detected that certain groups have developed bots that permanently search for previous appointments. By means of this computer system, they keep all these appointments without it being possible for the citizen or the social collaborator to access any of them,” explains Fernando Jesús Santiago Ollero, president of the General Council of Administrative Managers’ Associations.
– The Association of Administrative Managers assures that the prior appointment, far from becoming the formula for channelling procedures with the Administration, “is becoming a source of frustration and looting”.
– Appointments at the DGT are free of charge, so it is not legal for private individuals, call shops or supposed administrators to try to charge us fees for obtaining an appointment.

Almuñécar markets suspended over Easter:
– Almuñécar town hall has announced that the town’s Sunday flea market will not take place on Palm Sunday (2 April) or Easter Sunday (9 April).
– The Friday street market will not go ahead on Friday 7 April either so that the Blas Infante car park can be used for visitors to the town’s Easter week processions.
– “The measure has been adopted, as has become traditional, in order to enable parking in the Blas Infante area, located between Calle Larache and Carretera Nacional 340 (Travesía del Barrio La Paloma), in Almuñécar,” said the councillor for the area, Javier García.

GRANADA
Montejícar opens the longest zip-line in Andalucía: {Translation}
– The president of the Granada Provincial Council, José Entrena, has inaugurated a leisure and adventure complex in Montejícar, which has the longest zip line in Andalusia, with a distance of two kilometers, in an act in which he was accompanied by the mayor from the municipality of the Los Montes region, Javier Jiménez, the deputy for Sports, Manuel Guirado, and part of the local government team.
– The zip line, whose construction has been financed with the City Council’s own funds, has superseded that of Alhaurín de la Torre (1.3 kilometers) as the longest in the region and is one of the longest in Spain, as reported by the Diputación de Granada in a press release.
– In addition, a multi-adventure park has also been inaugurated that includes a wide variety of leisure activities for all ages. This equipment has been partially financed by the Diputación de Granada through the remaining treasury.

‘Pink cocaine’- The expensive and trendy drug is neither cocaine nor high quality:
– The substance is pink, sometimes smells like strawberries and in Spain goes by different names: tucibi, tusi, pink powder. Most commonly, it is called pink cocaine and considered a luxury drug for affluent people: a single gram costs 80, 90 and even 100 dollars. The same amount of ordinary cocaine costs around 60 dollars, according to a report that the Spanish Observatory on Drugs and Addictions (OEDA in Spanish) published this year.
– Pink cocaine is neither cocaine nor luxury. Between 2019 and 2022, Energy Control – an organization that works to ensure the safe consumption of narcotics – analyzed 150 samples of pink cocaine. It found dye in almost all of them and cocaine in only two. Most pink cocaine was a cocktail of several cheaper drugs; 44% of the samples contained ketamine, MDMA (ecstasy) and caffeine. Methamphetamine (“speed”) is also a common ingredient.
– But there are also people who sell another substance under the name pink cocaine; it has the same color and is sold at similar prices, but it is completely different from the pink powder that results from mixing several drugs. This other pink cocaine’s scientific name is 4-bromo-2,5-dimethoxyphenylethylamine (or “2-CB”), a substance that belongs to the psychedelic phenethylamine family. 2-CB’s effects resemble LSD and ecstasy but are weaker and less stimulating. It is also referred to as nexus or trippy pills. “It is very important to distinguish between the two. The media has used the terms tusi and 2-CB interchangeably. They are not [the same]. 2-CB is a different substance,” the coordinator of Energy Control in Madrid, De la Vega explained.
