Free Palm Trees   

I rescued a number of palm trees as a gardener was thinning them out .
I potted them up and have grown them on but now they need to be put into their permanent homes as they will grow much larger when given space . Does anyone want to collect them to give them a chance to mature happily as they are not happy in small pots and are not flourishing .
A donation to Tail Animal Charity would be a nice gesture.  Thank you

What’s on – 2017 Nerja Individuals Charity Fun Quiz

We see quiz competitions advertised on Digame throughout the year but largely in the winrer months when the weather is more conducive to holding the quizzes inside.

Almost 100% of the quizzes have a team of two,three.four or more people,whereby some.who may not feel as confident as others will go along for the social gathering and help the more knowledgeable members of the team and chip in with important answers

Nobody has organized an individuals quiz before, until now!  The Potters Bar in Nerja (opposite the Villa Flamenco hotel) has a weekly quiz night every Tuesday for teams throughout the whole year. Even in the Tuesday night regular teams there are many individual who may feel confident to have a go at this new

the Villa Flamenca hotel) has a weekly quiz night every Tuesday for teams throughout the whole year. Even in the Tuesday night teams there are many individuals who may feel confident to have a go at this new quiz format.

It will be a fun quiz whereby each individual will write down their answer and then have their answers marked. It will not be the intention to shame any contestant as only they will know whether they have had a bad night and as quizzers, we know that can happen. So complete anonymity of scores will be upheld.

Dependent on the numbers wanting to try this new format, it is intended to hold heats and then a Grand Final beginning on Wednesday  October 11th and subsequent Wednesdaysat 7.45pm at the Potters Bar and should be finished by 10pm The top scorers from each heat will go forward to a Grand Final on Wednesday December 6th at 7.45pm

The cost will be 5 euros per person and all proceeds will go to the CAS animal charity together with a good prize for the overall  winner.

You can register your interest or enter somebody you know who may be back in the UK at present but will be back in the area in October through to December. Contact either Cathy at the Potters Bar or ianbloor@ sky dot com.

The closing entry date is September 29th and if there is a particular October Wednesday night that you cannot attend pleas let us know when you enter. Entries to include a contactable phone number or email address.

So don’t be shy – give it a try as it is for charity.

Remember, you do not need to be a budding Mastermind or Brain Of Britain expert, because quizzes are always easy if you know the answer.

What’s on – Phoenix Club Christmas Break 2017

Due to circumstances out of our control due to many hotels not taking large groups and with the increase in hotel prices on the Costa del Sol, we have had to look further afield for our Christmas break this year.

Therefore, this Christmas will be spent at the 4* Best Oasis Tropical Hotel in Mojácar which is 2 hours by coach from Algarrobo.

The Hotel Best Oasis Tropical is situated in the traditional Andalusian town of Mojácar Costa and is located 50 meters from the beach of Mojácar and offers views of the Mediterranean Sea.

It offers very comfortable rooms with free WiFi, entertainment, buffet restaurant with show cooking and a Gala Dinner on Christmas Eve. It also includes wine with meals. This hotel does not offer an ‘all inclusive deal’ but we hope the price will be attractive, especially as the exchange rate has bombed.

The price is €230pp based on 2 sharing, single supplement is €25pp (very limited)  Deposit €75.00 non refundable.

This includes:

  • Full  Board with wine in the Buffet restaurant
  • Evening entertainment
  • Gala meal on the 24thDecember
  • Free WiFi
  • Coach Fare
  • Day trip to Cartagena
  • Gratuities for restaurant staff and driver

For more information on any of our trips or events call Gail on 951067723, emailphoenixsocialclub@yahoo.co.uk or catch us on the web at www.phoenixsocialclub.co.uk.  The Phoenix club is a registered charitable association raising funds for 3 local charities and SSAFA in the UK.  We meet every Tuesday between 12 and 2 at Bar La Vega in Torre del Mar and you can book or pay from 12.15 onwards.  Do pop in and meet us.

Services Available-Changes at Todo Papel, Competa

Todo Papel – important announcement

After 12 years it is with regret that we have to announce that we will be stopping the sale of newspapers and magazines. The last day of sales will be Saturday 2nd September.

Many factors have contributed to this decision primarily declining sales due to changes in distribution of a large number of publications earlier this year, technology and how individuals access their news and increasing costs.  Unfortunately, it is no longer financially viable to offer this service.

We will continue to stock and sell our other core items such as greetings cards,  second hand books and of course our PO Box and parcel receiving services.  We are also very excited to be introducing a new product range which will take the place of newspapers – more over the next couple of weeks.

Kind Regards

Alick and Debbie

Recommendation- Jeff of Pooltec

We have been rescued once again by Jeff of Pooltec.

Our pool turned completely green with algae, probably after a visit from two young grandsons who swan almost continuously for three weeks. They were rather well protected with sunscreen which was a contributing factor to the algae.

After a visit from Jeff and some excellent advice, the pool is now glass like and very tempting in this heat.

I can really recommend this extremely helpful chap.

The “Apparition”

Hi Doug I shared your post and first answer in is this one-

Yes I would think it’s the Perseid meteor which you can see now. It peaks on the 12th August. They can be so bright with tails of light.

Fabulous. Lucky person to have seen a big one.

So there you go!

Recommendation- Pleasantly surprised by new Belgian-Dutch restaurant in Torrox-Costa

Like many of you I am a lover of good food. The other day I was pleasantly surprised by the new Belgian-Dutch restaurant named Happy Days along the Paseo Marítimo in Torrox-Costa, just on the corner with Avenida Europa. All food is freshly made using the best ingredients, so sometimes you will need to have patience that will surely be rewarded once you start enjoying the food. The very good sea view is of course an extra. Since last week they also offer delicious (not dry!) roast chicken to eat on site or to take away. Famous Belgian beers also offered. Staff are multilingual.
Check out their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Restaurant-Happy-Days-313649202397941/

Did anyone see the Mothership last night? 

OK, seriously, I was woken up at around 2am last night by a very bright light in the sky. I leapt to the window (admittedly without my glasses), and couldn’t see the source of the light but I could see from its moving shadow that it must have tracked across the sky.

Probably not an alien visitation… perhaps more likely to be a ‘fireball’ from the Perseid meteor shower, but far brighter than I’ve ever seen. Perhaps more like the Chelyabinsk meteor from 2013.

Any thoughts?    Doug?

Missing Kitten

This is a long shot, but you never know?

Has anyone seen or even picked up a cute little black and white kitten in the Vinuela/Puente Don Manuel area. It has now been missing for two weeks. Its two siblings came back after one week and are doing fine….

It has a distinctive off centre black patch on the nose, a bit wonky. By the way, anyone that has picked it up is welcome to keep it, we’d just like to know.

Cheers, Keith, wotsapnin at gmail dot com

 

DoctorLaptop’s August Special and Good News for Windows Users

-New Microsoft tools do a better job of patching corrupt Windows System files. If a system integrity scan (sfc /scannow) result showed “corrupt system files found that could not be repaired”, they are probably fixable now. The new tool can actually call home to request the patches needed! This can prevent the dreaded words, “your system needs to be reinstalled”.

-Users who install Windows Updates including “optional” updates have better protection against ramsomware. Many people quit doing optional updates to avoid the now discontinued, forced Win10 Free Upgrade. Today optional updates contain the latest anti-ransomware fixes.

DoctorLaptop’s Famous Clean and TuneUp Special Returns

Get your annual computer maintenance servicing done this month for 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?

blown motor

I do the most comprehensive cleaning and tune-up possible: verify Windows 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, install BitDefender free ransomware protection (won’t interfere with your anti-virus), and finally optimize your settings for fastest overall performance.

Help Wanted- Internet technician required please

For years we were restricted to 2.5Mbs for internet access, we had a lot of problems with the network slowing down, especially at peak times.  Then fibre optic, nominally, 300Mbs came to our town and we converted.  Mainly a great improvement, I have measured as much as 250Mbs wired direct to the router with a new cat 6 cable, but nothing like that on WiFi.  And of course all our equipment is not that new, while we have bought  new cat 6 cables we  have Kodi boxes, we also have older laptops, we have a homeplug extension, we have  a repeater, so elsewhere the speed is far lower.  We also run a VPN which may interfere.

Somehow, sometimes, this combination results in an unreliable service.  I have been running a network up time monitor and I can’t really come to a conclusion from the logs though I have some theories.

I am reluctant to send for the service supplier as they will simply walk away and charge if they can claim it is ‘not their fault’.

I am far from ignorant in such matters but this is getting beyond me!

So, can anyone recommend a network technician who would help us get a stable solution?  Or are you such a technician?

If you can help please email margaretpaloma at yahoo dot co dot uk

Margaret, located in Benajarafe

 

Services Available- Steven Rowles Animal Healing and Behavioural Correction.

The Trouble with Chester 

Chester recently came to Animal Healing as a Border, staying with us for two weeks of rehabilitation. Chester is a Mastine cross and extremely large. The original contact was because of his aggression towards other dogs and when Chester launches himself he is extremely hard to restrain. When seen and evaluated at his house Chester wore a muzzle as he was a danger to the other dogs he lived with, but danger is not what Steven saw.

“When I first took Chester for a short walk and to observe him, I did not see an aggressive dog, I saw one living in fear. He had an over exagerated wide mouthed pant and dialated pupils, and it was not because of the heat. He was delivered to me two weeks later. He was taken for a short walk to get rid of any stored up energy and then taken back to the Healing Centre. His reaction to our other dogs was not aggression, but fear. I let him roam around the property to familiarise himself and as soon as he was able, he found somewhere to hide. This was a huge dog that could make mince meat of any other dog and yet, all he wanted to do was hide.”

Steven Rowles Animal Healing got to work straight away. Chester was taken to run the gauntlet, to highlight all of his issues and fears. His backstory was that he had a miserable life on the the streets of Santander, from where he was rescued. A dog this size would be obvious to anyone and an obvious target for abuse. That soon showed itself when Chester showed how petrified he was of bicycles, scooters and general traffic. Walking him was not an easy process, as he was in panic the whole time. The trouble with Chester is he was suffering with PTSD, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Yes animals can have this to. Unlike us they cannot relate how they feel, it is up to us to observe and discover. Chesters panic even showed itself back at the centre and he had to be taught to take time out and calm down quite quickly.

Over the course of his stay he learnt to cope with his fears and how better to deal with them. He is now able to deal with bicycles and scooters in a less reactionary way. He has learnt to play, have fun and most of all relax. He is now free and able to be a dog and is learning to deal with other dogs without fear turning to aggression.

If you are having any issues from small to large with your animals please make contact, do not let them or yourself, live unhappy lives a minute more. We are based in Caleta De Velez, If you live a distance away then there is always the Rehabilitation Boarding option.
