Night theatrical visits to the English cemetery in Malaga resume: Friday nights, 7pm & 9pm tours
– Truculent stories loom over the English cemetery of Malaga, where we will meet to start a theatrical visit that will leave you speechless.
– There was a time when Málaga was a real crucible of cultures that lived in peace. Until death came. At that time, non-Catholics were buried only at night, upright on the beach and were devoured by the beasts of the sea or packs of roaming dogs. However, this changed with the construction of the English cemetery in 1831.
– During our theatrical visit, we will have the privilege of being accompanied by guides who lived that time and his stories will put his hair at the end. We will see how the first Protestant cemetery of the Iberian Peninsula changed the course of the city’s history, both for the living and for the dead.
– Captain Kritschman’s stories about Malaga’s great shipwreck, Robert Boyd’s unfair shooting or Mary Ann’s secrets, the owner of the stone angel, the most valuable and famous sculpture of the English cemetery. Can you think of a better plan to do in Malaga at sunset?
– After an hour and a half, we will say goodbye at the exit of the English cemetery of Malaga. Sweet dreams! Photo: MyGuide. Info & tix: https://www.getyourguide.com/malaga-l402/visita-teatralizada-nocturna-al-cementerio-ingles-t554056

– The European Public Prosecutor’s Office has opened an investigation into the contracts signed – during the first stage of the pandemic – by the Canary Islands Health Service and the Health Service of the Balearic Islands with the alleged scheme in which Koldo García, former advisor to former Transport Minister José Luis Ábalos, allegedly participated for the supply of masks.

Half of the 36,000 arrested or investigated for house squatting since 2020 are foreign citizens, while prosecutions slow due to court strikes and Covid restrictions on evictions: {Translation, summary}
– A total of 7,057 people were arrested or investigated for home occupation offences, of which half of them (3,544) were foreigners, according to statistics from the Ministry of the Interior between January and September 2023, according to a parliamentary response consulted by Europa Press.
– Data from the Ministry of the Interior show that half of the 36,842 people arrested and investigated since 2020 for crimes related to squatting are foreign nationals, and that there is a downward trend in both the number of investigations with arrests and the number of criminal offences investigated for the trespassing and usurpation of property.

ANDALUCÍA
Showers and storms throughout the week in Andalusia: {Translation, summary}
– On Tuesday 5th, no rain is expected in Andalusia and forecasts indicate that there will be clear skies during the afternoon in most of the territory. On Wednesday, clouds will return to the whole autonomous region.
– Thursday sees the beginning of a change in trend, and an example of this is the forecast which indicates that the rains will arrive in the early hours of the morning in provinces such as Huelva. They will then spread to the western half of Andalusia throughout the morning, with the possibility of thunderstorms in Cadiz. During the following hours, rain and storms will also spread eastwards, affecting the whole of Andalusia (with the exception of the eastern coast of Almería).
– Friday 8th March will begin with showers in Cadiz, Cordoba, Malaga, Granada and Jaen, with early morning thunderstorms also expected in the latter province. During the day, it will rain throughout Andalusia, except in the south and east of Almería. Meanwhile, snow is also expected in Trevélez, Granada. Rain will continue in the late afternoon in the provinces of Huelva, Seville and Cordoba.
– The rains will also mark the day of 9 March. On this day, rain is expected in areas such as Almería, where the AEMET forecasts do not indicate rainfall on previous days. Storms may also occur, in this case in the north of Cordoba and Granada, as well as in the province of Jaén. On the other hand, snow will continue to fall in the municipality of Trevélez and during the final hours of the day snow may also be seen in Huelma and Alcalá La Real.
– Precipitation in the form of snow will spread during the early hours of Sunday morning (and its morning), according to the AEMET, to other municipalities, such as Guadix, Baza, Cazorla and Huéscar. Meanwhile, the rains will continue in the Guadalquivir Valley area and part of Jaén, Granada and Huelva. Rainfall will cease during the last hours of the weekend in many Andalusian localities, except in areas of Cadiz, Malaga, Cordoba, Granada and a large part of the province of Jaen.

MALAGA CITY
Black Days stores open outlet in Malaga city offering Amazon & AliExpress returned items at big discounts:
– It might raise a few eyebrows if you see paddle-surf boards, air fryers or robot vacuum cleaners for just 20 euros or less, but it’s all legitimate. A new outlet store in Malaga city offers items returned by customers to Amazon back to the public at bargain prices.
– Every Friday you can find new stock, which includes almost everything. Small electrical appliances are the most popular, such as the automatic cleaners, hair straighteners or air-fryers, but you can also buy clothes from Shein and other items from AliExpress.
– The owners of the new business, Black Days Outlet, are María del Mar (Lía) Gómez Bustamante and Juan Amate. They opened the first shop in December in the Plaza del Hospital Civil in Malaga city and a month later opened another at Calle Eugenio Gross 43.
– The new stock goes on sale on Fridays, a day in which everything inside the store is reduced to 20 euros. From then on, the price drops progressively and on the following Thursday the items (if there are any left) can be purchased for only three euros. The only thing that exceeds the fixed price are televisions, which cost 80 euros (32-inch) or 120 euros (43-inch). In return, they come with a two-year guarantee.
– Customers can also buy drones, watches, headphones, toys, objects adapted to special needs – such as for people with autism – and sophisticated sporting goods such as paddle-surfing boards or kayaks. “They are the same things that you can see on Amazon costing 400, 600 or even 1,500 euros and that you can find in this shop for 20 euros or less,” the owners said.
– In addition to small appliances, they also sell furniture from the Amazon Basic range (“similar to Ikea”, the owners said), as well as returned clothes from Shein and other items from AliExpress. Tuesday is fashion day, with clothes and accessories for only five euros from Shein and Inditex, a group with which they have recently reached an agreement to be able to sell their returned garments.
– They will also make the leap to the province, with shops in San Pedro Alcántara, Rincón de la Victoria, Vélez-Málaga and Antequera in the coming weeks. Full article: https://www.surinenglish.com/malaga/malaga-city/this-the-outlet-malaga-city-offering-amazon-20240304181723-nt.html

FROM THE “WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY THINKING” DEPARTMENT
Has Minister of Labor & Leader of Sumar (communist, far-left) Yolanda Díaz Lost Her Mind? – She calls for earlier closing times for restaurants & catering industry, considers it “madness” to extend opening hours: {Translation, summary}
– The second vice-president and Minister of Labor, Yolanda Díaz {pic}, said on Monday that she does not consider it “reasonable” that restaurants in Spain should be open until 1am. In an intervention in Congress before Sumar MPs, the leader of the party advocated limiting the opening hours of the hotel and catering industry instead of extending them.
– “It is unreasonable for meetings to be called at 20.00 in the evening,” she said. In this regard, the minister pointed out that her department has set up a working group made up of 60 experts to tackle the issue of rationalising time. (Oh great, now the tax payers will foot the consultation bills for 60 of her fellow commies to support this insane proposal. -Ed)
– The words of the leader of Sumar have not been well received by the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Ayuso, a great advocate of flexible opening hours in the restaurant industry. “Spain has the best nightlife in the world, with streets full of life and freedom. And that also provides employment”, the PP leader pointed out on the social network X. “They want us to be puritanical, materialistic, socialist, without soul, without light and without restaurants because they feel like it”, she criticised.
– España de Noche, the employers’ association of leisure and night-time entertainment, rejects the approach of Díaz. In a communiqué, they say that limiting the opening hours of the hotel and catering industry would be “a shot in the foot” that “would only benefit” Spain’s competitors in the tourist market. “The offer of evening activity is one of the pillars of Spain being the first country in the world in holiday tourism, so any experiment that jeopardises our lifestyle model, our tourist attractiveness and the activity of companies in the sector can only provoke social and business rejection”, he warns.
– {Does Diaz not realize it stays light well after 9pm in summer, and that people seek relief from high summer night temps in poorly ventilated homes by going outside, often to cafe terraces, until temps cool well after midnight, a timeless Spanish tradition? And most residents will also be without water all night, so no showers! Can you imagine the huge “botellóns” (drinking parties) in every urban park across the country if there were nowhere else to go to on hot summer nights? Wait a second…huge free all-night community parties every night, all summer… that may be a good thing. On second thought, maybe there is an up side here, even if it would involve a huge increase in police overtime. -Ed.}
