Christmas Cake Decorations for the Phoenix Club

Last year we sold more Christmas Cakes than ever before at the Phoenix Club’s Mrs Miggins Christmas Fair.  However, the cakes were sold with the understanding that the decorations ie figures, cake box etc would be returned to us as these items are re-used as they are rather expensive.

Many thanks to those who did return said items and if you still have some decs, please, please return them.  You can pop them in on any Tuesday or failing that, any day of the week excluding Sundays to Marie at Bar La Vega in Torre del Mar.

It will soon be time to start preparations again.

Many thanks, Gail

 

 

Pets Left Behind – another 2 viewpoints.

  Re: Opinion – Pets left behind No.1…

I fully agree with the poor morals and irresponsibility shown when some people simply abandon their pets. Unfortunately things are not always so clear-cut and simple, and the “owners” are not always to blame.

We moved into El Campo with three cats from Sweden, chipped, jabbed, etc. Two of which have since passed away. But due to the availability of food, 1 ½ other El Campo cats have adopted us. The 1 cat (Tom) is friendly, cute and wants to be a member of the family, but in essence he is still a wild cat. He also fights for his territory and keeps other cats away 🙂 We have also learned to restrict the availability of food.

But there is absolutely no way we can get Tom into a cat box, short of using a tranquiliser dart, and we would need to do that twice; once to have him vaccinated, chipped and obtain a passport, and the procedure would have to be repeated for the journey. He will not fall for that twice. So little Tom is an El Campo cat and he will always remain so after we leave. He would never take to a small apartment in Sweden.

I am sure that there are many others who are adopted by local cats, who in principle, are still wild cats, but come to befriend humans for easy food. I believe that there are cats brought here and abandoned, but there are many local cats who adopt short-term residents. In many cases the only other alternatives would be either to have the animals put down, or leave them in the environment from which they came. What do you suggest? Do you have an alternative solution?

Very best regards from Harry

No.2

I agree with the person  ( sorry but your post is nameless)
I couldn’t imagine life without my Four legged family, I know of many people who have returned back to their native country and have taken their animals with them, I also know of a few that for no fault of their own, have found themselves having to leave and have not got the resources to take their pets with them, it’s easy to asume that everyone is as fortunate as you or I, we should have some compasión for these people because the stress of making that decision they can carry for the rest of their life’s.
It’s easy to categorize people, but it’s not always as simple as that.

Opinion – Pets left behind…

I don’t know if I am the only one to get a little annoyed when I read of people returning back to the UK and abandoning their animals here for someone else to look after or to try to re-home. Many people complain at the way Spanish treat their animals when they come to live here, but it is equally irresponsible for foreign animal owners to not take their pets back with them. I cannot imagine just leaving our animals if we moved away, they are our family and go everywhere with us. With the pet passport now being so easy to obtain, there really is no excuse for leaving them here when there are already so many other unwanted cats and dogs needing homes.

Retirement Home Needed for this Yorkie

Can anyone offer this 12yr old Yorkie a forever home locally to live out his Golden years?

He was entered into the dog pound by his owner last Weds, due to serious ill health she could no longer keep him and was devastated to let him go.

I have been fostering him since he was released last Thursday and there is a possibility he can go to Germany but it would be lovely if we could save him the long journey.

He has a few age related health ‘issues’ eg poor vision, stiff joints but he really is a lovely old chap and the Vet says he has a strong heart. He isn’t demanding and doesn’t need to go for a daily walk but would enjoy some outside space to sniff around. Gets on very well with other dogs, not sure about cats yet.

If you think you can help him or would like more information please contact me.

Many thanks for reading this

Ibex at Pureto/Puerto Collado
Mike, you are absolutely right: people should be more careful with location.  However, you do not have a good case here. I was not trying to get people out to see the Ibex: surely they would be somewhere else on the next day. With this drought they have to get around a lot in order to find food.
The post was aimed at people walking their dogs in the area. I believe they recognized the place in spite of the unfortunate misspelling, sorry (it was correct in the title which was accidentally changed by ed).

Actually, ALL dog owners should take care in the nature, because (as stated in my earlier post, June 14, to which this was a follow-up): you may  meet wildlife where you don’t expect it. So, for that purpose: you don’t have to know where it was. Perhaps even better so!

It was in a nature park, where dogs certainly should not be on the loose. (There is no national park in Digameland). The wildlife IS there, even though you have not spotted any.

Young/newborn defenseless animals, bird nests on the ground….

AAR Dog of the Week 

 

 

Services Needed- Patamalara Water Supply

I read yesterday’s post about Patamalara with some concern.

We were in Torrox for several weeks in late June and  early July, and saw no notices of any need to prove property ownership to ensure continued water supply from Patamalara. I would have expected to see any notice about this at the meters where we turn our supply on and off.

We do not return until mid August at the earliest, so if there is a 31 July deadline for providing evidence of ownership at the Patamalara office we will have missed it.

Does anybody know anything further about this matter?

Posting to Digamextra could be useful, as I am sure a number of readers get water from Patamalara, and could be concerned following yesterday’s post.

Steven Rowles Animal Healing on Dog Aggression.

Response to Plea for Information (Editor)

There seems lately to be a big serge in what appears to be aggressive dogs, which prompted me to write this short piece. Many people come to me claiming they have aggressive dog issues. Sometimes the attacks have taken place on several or one of their dogs, maybe even themselves or someone else, by their own dog. Although it maybe true that the dog acted in an aggressive manner, it does not mean it is an unpredictable dangerous animal.

The main reasons for dog aggression are, a lack of Exercise, Frustration or Fear.

Rescue dogs which are the main contingent here on the South Coast of Spain, are mainly driven by fear. They are generally quite unbalanced in their thinking and require some type of rehabilitation. Your normal everyday domestic dog can suffer from frustration and a lack of exercise. Sometimes it can be a combination of all three for either type of dog. But, the right amount of exercise is essential, to get rid of excess energy, then the energy will not be directed into the wrong areas.

It is also a great mistake to blame the breed. It was a Pit-bull therefore, for example. A Chihuahua is just as capable of becoming just as aggressive, its only that a Pit bull or Rottweiler are bigger and can do more damage.

I had a friend once who’s Cat put her in hospital after savaging her ankle. Owners can often be the source of there own problem and why an attack may occur, by setting up their dog to fail, by encouraging rough games, like tug of war, or teasing with food.

Pack Leadership is also essential. If a dog does not see you as its leader, there will be a fight for dominance within the pack, or if you have a dog on its own, it will become irrational and not listen. To control any breed, especially big powerful ones, you need to master the position of Pack Leader.

To conclude, even the wrongly, perceived as, fiercest of breeds, just want to be loved and they want to be lead, they just need the right help, from us.

Mobile Phone Roaming

From June 15th, 2017, there are no roaming charges, unless, you are a heavy user.

The person getting charged, I suggest request Movistar, to reimburse monies, charged beyond 15th June.

Under the new rules, you are only charged the domestic price for calls and texts. But anyone having trouble, go into the phone settings, and turn roaming off.

But you need it turned on, to use a UK sim in Spain- John A

Services Available- Steven Rowle Animal Healing

Animal Healing was recently contacted by TAIL the animal shelter in Torrox Costa, about the rehabilitation of a Staffie called Tor. Tor had been rescued, placed in the shelter and imediately took to fighting other dogs. Thats what Tor had been bred or aquired for in the past. His ears had been cut off to stop other dogs latching on, not an uncommon practice, and he has many scars. Tor went straight into behavioural correct with Steven Rowle.

Steven explains.

When I first met Tor he did not sniff anything, he was all eyes. Dogs should always be sniffing, it tells them what and who you are, where you’ve been and a host of complex messages for their brain. It is a very common characteristic of fighting and stressed dogs, to not sniff anything. I imediately asked that Tor be kept out of the main part of the shelter and put in a quiet area with calm dogs, to begin imprinting positive memories over old ones. I took him and began rehabilitating him straight away. What I actually discovered was a very affectionate and responsive dog. Although his issues were apparent, he was eager to please and responded to correction really well. During his rehabilitation he was introduced to a variety of new dogs of different sizes and breeds, and responded fantastically well on and off the lead. Its all a matter of reprograming the brain and continuing with the positive memories to help Tor to move forward in life.

As Cesar Milan the Dog Whisperer says and I say to everyone I meet, its all about energy. You can interpret human and animal energy into whatever belief system suits you, but you wear your energy like a coat. For instance if I wore a big red coat, anyone who came anywhere near me would see it. The energy we display by our intentions and emotions is exactly the same. The energy we produce both mentally and physically is something for the animal to read. If it is weak and erratic, it is confusing to the dog and you will get all the wrong responses. Tors energy was weak and he was very lacking in confidence. My energy had to be strong, assertive and calm, to overwhelm his, so he would have no choice but to give in to it

There is no Dog that cannot be rehabilitated.

If you like and are experienced with Staffies, Tor could be an excellent addition to the family. You can contact Animal Healing for details or you can contact TAIL directly. If you have any other issues with your Animals, big or small, don’t suffer in silence, contact Animal Healing.

The Phone Hacking Saga – Victory !

fI would like to thank all the Digamites who replied both directly and posted on Digame.

The outcome is fine now but the reason I still don’t understand.  Believe it or not I managed via a Movistar blog to contact Moviestar Customer Services, in English for mobile problems…..yes I did that!!

I will share this later as I think it may prove useful to others.

It appears my phone was data roaming which I cannot understand as I do not use roaming and never have done. However, the very polite gentleman at Movistar accessed my account and was able to tell me the times it went on roaming.  The outcome, he has blocked roaming from my phone…all appears ok now (given I never used it is no big deal for me).

How could this happen? The only things I can think of  is that in the morning I replaced my UK sim card with my Spanish sim as we had just returned from holiday the night before….but I have done this on numerous occasions without any problems.  The other possibility was I received a text from an English mobile from a person I haven’t spoken to in 4/5yrs…so whether either of these activated ‘roaming’ I have no idea.

At least thankfully  sorted for me now.

This is the advice I followed to get through to customer services regarding mobile problems that connected me with a helpful English speaking operative:-

Dial 1004 – it will be answered in Spanish giving you options.

At the pauses in between each of the options say “English”, “English”…I kept doing this even when I received a Spanish automated instruction and not knowing if it was working.

Then I got some crackly music with intermittent Spanish messages…I assume apologising for the delay (yes, I am guilty of speaking bad Spanish!)

Then Eureka…I was connected to a very helpful, competent, English speaking operative and he was very polite.

Hope this may assist others with Movistar mobile problems and have been frustrated in the past at trying to get through.

I would also mention that my husband experienced a similar experience some years ago.  He did not have a smart phone and as far as he was aware it did not have roaming. He even took the sim out for a couple of weeks to see if that would help. It did not as once replaced his balance was gone.   He took it to the Movistar shop in the  Ingenio Centre.  They phoned a department and put my husband on to them as they were supposed to speak English (yes, but badly), they were very rude to him,  said the problem was fixed….but it wasn’t and he  lost another top-up fee.   Suffice to say he left Movistar and is now with Eroski pay as you go.

Once again thank you for all the information

Regards CB

Recommendation- Hearing Aids

I have found a company who I would like to share and recommend for excellent service and a caring approach to supplying Hearing Aids

They are located opposite the fruit market in Malaga and so easy to find.

If you are considering anything to do with hearing aids then it is a must to speak with these people first.

They speak good English and most certainly far better than my Spanish

Kitten Needs New Home Please

Hello, my name is Foots.

I’m called Foots because I love to play with shoes (I don’t break them though!).

I’m looking for a new home because I have 6 bothers and sisters (all the same litter) and my owners can’t keep us all!

I’m female. 16 weeks old. I’m house trained. I eat anything and I’m very good fun.

I also have another brother and sister who are also looking for somewhere else to live.

If anyone wanted to take all three of us, that would be even better!

I live in Torrox but my owner will bring me to you anywhere reasonably nearby.

Please speak to my owner on:

Hacked Mobile – Responses

(1)

Hi Jane, I’m sending this via Digame because if this person has been hacked

I think it better to do it this way.I did have a similar problem a year ago and went to one of the top up booths and got it rectified .The answer was simple my Data Roaming was switched on !!!!  Once this was switched off my money on top up was O.K. . Hope this helps.

Regards Ian

(2)

This happened on my husband’s vodaphone.es account a few years ago. We took the phone into our local agent, who checked through and found he’d opened a text which was then able to access any balance on his phone. They had that number blocked and there has been no repeat of the problem.

Go into your Moviestar shop and see what they can do.

Physiotherapy & Osteopathy in Torrox Costa

I would like to take the opportunity to introduce myself to the Axarquia community.

My name is Alexander and I am a Physiotherapist who trained in Germany  and qualified in 2008. I came to Spain in 2014. I have worked in various private clinics, hospitals and hotels throughout my career. I completed my Bachelor of Science in Osteopathy from NUMSS, Madrid  in 2015.

Over the years I attended many courses like Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Neuromuscular Therapy, Pain Therapy, Sports Physiotherapy, Craniosacral Therapy, Naturopathy, Bobath Concept. Developing my skills to enable myself to take a well rounded and hands on approach to all conditions. I can treat musculoskeletal conditions including sports injuries, orthopaedic surgery and spinal problems. I have a particular interest in pain management. Beside this I am trained in Neurological Physiotherapy, which is emphasized in the adequate treatment of patients with neurological disorders e.g. after a stroke, parkinson, multiple sclerosis and more.

My qualification as an Manual Osteopath has been very complementary along side my other physiotherapy skills in the management of pain through injury with all of my patients.

I am multi-lingual and able to give treatments in German, English and Spanish.

You will find me at Manantia –International Wellness Center in Torrox Costa.

Av. Garcia Peñalver (Av. del Faro) Blq. 76 Bajo 6, 29793 Torrox Costa (Málaga)

Recommendation- Irrigation System

We have just had a new irrigation system fitted by Scott Wilson and his Spanish assistant Jose, at our campo house near Sayalonga.

The water pressure here has never been good and the original system was poorly installed..

Scott and Jose arrived on time and after discussing the work again realised that they needed some extra fittings, which we had not made clear when they viewed the work. This was no problem, they went off and quickly returned with the extras. The work was finished by 4pm and when tested it worked like a dream, which it never ever did before.

Scott and Jose are part of a team of General Builders who have done work for us before, they are thorough, tidy, professional and clear up after finishing the work.

You can contact Scott Wilson by mobile 622938440

Recommendation Needed- Builder-Tiler

Recommendation– Waynes Drains

Last year Waynes Drains installed a new Septic Tank for us and what a great job they did.  As it is close to our parking area we put up a big lamp to protect the cap. Unfortunately the lamp was knock and the septic tank cap crushed by a wayward parker.

We emailed Waynes Drain and they came and put on a new cap.

When we asked what do we owe you…’Nothing’ was the reply ‘it’s all part of the service’.  What a wonderful Waynes Drains.

Concert on Playazo Plaza – Torrent of Complaints –

This is one of the least unpleasant & non offensive and it is certainly the very, very last email I shall publish      Subject Closed!  Editor

I presume the writer of the complaint about the Playazo beach party was referring to San Juan which happens each year (and on most beaches) on the 23 June. I’m afraid that’s just something that occurs here, especially in summer months. Apart from the usual ferias and fiestas, there are additional beach parties too. One year the music was so loud from the Torre del Mar Beach Festival in July we had to move out of our home in Torrox which isn’t even in view of the area, but the bass was bouncing off the hillsides (this year it’s been extended so is 4 nights, until about 8am the next morning, 5-8th).  No town or village is free from noise of their ferias and fiestas which go on all night long, but they seem to attract a lot of visitors and bring in income to the area. The rules for music levels in bars and clubs does not seem to apply to the local traditional fiestas.

Putting it politely, I think if the writer goes to the Ayuntamiento and asks for a rates’ rebate due to the noise, I think they would have a good laugh about it…. this is the way Spain is!

 

 

Hacked Mobile

It appears my mobile (Movistar) has been hacked.  I received, as is normal, a text notification to say I had less than 2 euro on 23/6 at 12.38.

At 13.06, on that day,  I topped up with 10 euros bringing my balance to 11,62. During the night I received 2 notification texts simultaneously at 00.29 (24/6)one stating less than 3 euros and the other less than 2 euros, I then received a text notification that I had zero balance….I had only made 3 texts and 3 short local phone calls on the 23rd.

At 12.48 on 25/6 I topped up with only 5 euros as I thought something strange was going on…….at 13.18, exactly 30 minutes later I again received 2 notification texts simultaneously stating I had less than 3 euros and less than 2 euros.  I hadn’t used my phone.

If anyone has experienced this and can share how this can be rectified I would be grateful.  I have had my number for 13 years and as you can imagine the inconvenience it would cause to have to have it changed especially as I do not have a land-line.

El Playazo concert

I am seeking an answer to some questions.   Last night and this morning we in this area were subjected to another “concert”, it finished spot on time at 5 a.m.  However I am hoping that someone somewhere can explain why during the early evening the music could be heard but was not imposing upon one’s life, but around the time when most people have decided to climb into bed the volume is turned up, to deafening levels.   Nerja council banned music in the Burriana Beach area because of complaints from residents.   In most cases there the music was around before the apartments were built…………in our case it would appear to be a reverse situation.

Do the organisers of this event live in this area?    I doubt it.

Why should residents in a quiet area be subjected to such inconsiderate treatment…………..?

I have been told that this event might occur again later this year – how do we stop it happening……?

Are we entitled to a rates reduction because of noise levels outwith our control……….?

Why is no consideration given to the clients of the Marinas de Nerja hotel………..?

This is not a good advertisement for Nerja – think about it seriously Town Hall.

Miniature Goats

We are looking for a new home for our pygmy goat mother and twin girls.

Mum is about 2 years old and the twins just over 1 year old.

They are very tame and make lovely pets.

Unfortunately, we no longer have the time to give them the love and attention they deserve so would love to give them to someone who has the time and the space to accommodate them.

For more information / photos or to visit them, please call me.

Recommendation- Airport Transport

If you need an airport transfer the best firm you could use is Ferramar Taxis.  They charge a flat rate of 55 euro from Torrox Costa  to any point in Malaga, airport, port, RENFE or even in the centre of the city.  They are always on time (usually early) and the drivers speak some English. The lady in the office speaks good English.

The office is on the main road in Torrox Costa on that stretch between Aldi the shop that sells cushions.

Recommendation Needed – Car Insurance

Hi Digamites,

It’s that time of year for me where my car insurance is due for renewal and I am once again doing the rounds to see if I can get a better quote. I am at present with Linea Directa, whom I have been with for a few years and to be fair have been very good. Why change you may ask, well it’s always nice to to know what the other person has on offer. So I would be interested to hear of any recommendation for a car insurance, good or bad, that may be worth a phone call.

Thanks. Keith. email peakayone at msn dot com
