The members also enjoy various ?away days? during the year. The last of these was a visit for members and their partners to the Ron Montero Rum Factory and then to the Sugar Museum in Motril.

Missing or Rescued ?  stray dog

I am afraid to say that I may be guilty of committing  a so called rescue!

The fella pictured below had been hanging round the restaurant where I work on Burriana beach for some days and had made himself quite at home but for obvious reasons he could not stay there.

We took him to a vet and checked for a chip which he had but

when we tried the number it was discontinued.

He seems in good health and had obviously come from a responsible home as

He is well trained and very friendly with no apparent fears of anything.

I took him home as he just would not leave and would get quite distressed when we left to go home.

It would be lovely if he could be reunited with his real family.

If he is yours or you know whose he is please call me on 622706615.

 

 

Malaga Airport Drop-off/Pick-up- Information Needed Please

Advice urgently needed, as I have to drop off family at the airport and collect others in a few days time.

I am told that, to collect people, I now have to park the car in a new ‘Arrivals’ car park situated between the large Taxi car park and the railway station.

To drop off I have to go to the upper level (Departures), drive past the area where we could park for a few minutes to (drop off and collect) and now then have to drive further on, to the ‘Express’ car park, where the entrance for this is opposite the old Terminal 2 building.

Is all of this correct?

Any advice and information would really help. Many thanks.

Recommendation for Solar Power System

We would like to make a recommendation for SurIntegral .
Over several years we have had  attempts paying various ” professionals ” to get a working solar power electricity system installed at our campo finca.
A bit important as we do not have connection to the mains but we needed a reliable basic system.
We finally discovered Jose Luis of SurIntegral .
He has helped us out when we totally lost electric power during the Semana Santa weekend .
He is very professional, courteous and speaks Spanish and English .

He takes the time to think and explain what is happening and installs air conditioning ,plumbing and other electrical work.
Now we have power again he is going to help us finally upgrade the existing system.
Contact him at 679313215 or 627625624 or

surintegral.jl @ gmail .com ( no spaces)
Regards
David

 

 

Recommendation- CP Auto Air Conditioning

We would like to recommend Chris from CP auto air conditioning who has managed to get our air-con working in our 18 year old car!

Chris can be contacted on 649307966, he covers the Competa and Torrox surrounding area.

Trip to Orgiva Tea Gardens Saturday 20th May (date change)

The Orgiva Tea Garden has evolved over the last ten years from a barren patch of land with waist high weeds into a beautiful tranquil garden split over three very different levels and covering about 5000 sq m.
The philosophy with regards to the planting has been to concentrate mainly on Mediterranean plants with help from shade-providing trees and also to take into account our animals as many have free range over the whole garden.
English Teas, refreshments, homemade sandwiches, soups and delicious cakes (ice cream in the summer) are available plus our shop sells local crafts and fresh produce. And of course there is a selection of plants for sale in the garden nursery section.
With a quiz and games for the children, the menagerie of animals as well, the garden can be enjoyed by the whole family and by all ages.

Courtesy of The Orgiva Tea Garden

The change of date is due to adding a talk on the wildflowers of Axarquia and Bee keeping

Price?  €25pp includes coach fare, entry to the gardens, lunch and drivers gratuity

Ronda Romantica  Feria Saturday 27^th May

During the three day festivities, locals and visitors are taken on a voyage of discovery to 19^th century Spain, a time of bandits, muleteers and romantic travellers.  Hundreds of locals from Ronda and the surrounding towns and villages participate in this unique recreation of 19^th century life in this stunning part of Andalucia.

Dressed in typical clothes and garments of the time, these colourful characters take part in a historical street parade and representations of different historic events. The sound and smell of gunpowder, artisans markets and equestrian exhibitions are just some of experiences enjoyed by visitors during the celebrations.

The locals also spend hours decorating the streets and shop windows of the city with colourful and eye-catching flowers, plants and banners, transforming Ronda into the most romantic of destinations.

Another of the unquestionable stars of the event are the horses which are also dressed in stunning attire, typical of the 19^th century, and their elegant riders also wearing their traditional garments.

Price?  €20pp

Dogs do not Necessarily Need Rescuing…..

Once again I am writing to say that, if a dog does not look like it is malnourished.  Leave it alone.

There are hundreds of dogs on a daily basis running around during the day time, they are latch key dogs.

The owners are invariably Spanish.  It is a custom here in Spain to let dogs roam around during the day.  Taking your dog for a walk is not a Spanish custom.

If you think you are rescuing a dog, then that dog becomes your responsibility.  In other words you are the owner.

Once again, leave a stay dog alone, unless it looks like it needs food.  9 times out of 10 they will go safely home.

Gina

 

 

Services  – Thank You !

During this length of time they both became very close friends. Natalie has taken care of all her medical problems, arranging and taking her to doctor/hospital appointments, been with her for hours when admitted and discharged from hospital during  several operations over the past 5 years. If an ambulance has been needed urgently  Nat has arranged it and came straight round as well. I knew when I went on holidays that my Mother, Aunt and Uncle were in safe hands. When Mum passed away Natalie organised everything for us and made sure everything ran smoothly on such a very sad day, even to taking care of the music and not sitting with us for the service. These are not the only services Natalie can offer, she can sort any problems to do with utility bills, documentation for the selling of cars and driving licences. MOT, visits to the townhall, legal queries and translating of documents as well as being an interpreter at the police station and hospitals, and loads more I may not be even aware of, you name it she can do it. Natalie puts a lot of time and effort into dealing with certain situations and making numerous phone calls behind the scenes that people are not aware off. Thank you Natalie from Helen and Scott xx

You can contact Natalie on Whatsapp  +34 645 65 46 77  or lakinka@hotmail.co.uk

 

 

Services Available- Pain Relief Starts Here!

My name is Alexander. I am the physiotherapist and osteopath of the International Wellness Center Manantia in Torrox Costa.

I would like to introduce a new manual pain therapy method in which I am specialised in.

My personal philosophy is to provide a drug-free and non-surgical treatment to all my patients.

The Fascial Distorsion Model is a new and effective method of treating pain within the musculoskeletal system. Developed by the American doctor for emergency medicine and osteopathy, Steven Typaldos D.O., the method is enjoying ever increasing popularity. Recent scientific researches on the human connective tissues helps us to understand the importance of the fascia.
Up till now, many disorders and illnesses of the musculoskeletal system were difficult to treat and only healed very slowly but with FDM healing is greatly accelerated.

This knowledge has been successfully employed to help many top sportsmen.

Due to FDM the description “chronic pain patient” takes on a completely new meaning. Up until now such patients were seen as being “incurable”.

FDM sees persistent chronic pain in a completely new way.

The treatment includes a specific examination and manual mobilization, soft tissue massage and osteopathic techniques.

For more information about our pain therapy treatment at Manantia or to request an appointment: Call +34 648517092 or 951774819.

Services Needed – Solar panels Expert

We have a solar panel which is probably at least 15 years old and

is probably getting to the stage where it needs changing.

We’ve just had the panel ‘flushed’ to clean it from a possible build up of ‘Cal’.

This, though, does not appear to have improved things.

Could anyone recommend a specialist company or plumber, who speaks English, so we can discuss the best way forward.

We do speak some Spanish but given the technicalities involved with fitting a new system, we want to be clear about the best way forward, particularly the

cost implications.

We live in Frigiliana. Replies via digame or direct to our email address.

Thanks. (Frank)

Good News for Android Tablet and SmartPhone Lovers

plus Safe Internet Access for XP/Vista Users

Android (Marshmallow) is now available for computers. Works with or without a touchscreen. You now have a good, free, familiar alternative to Windows. Android can be installed to replace Windows, or installed beside your existing Windows installation so you get to choose which system to load when you power up your computer; this is called a “dual boot” setup in tech-speak. A dual-boot setup is a good way to access the internet safely from an older and now obsolete Windows XP or Vista system which should not be used for internet access any longer!

-I can convert your computer to Android and set up your apps for €60. Note this will erase all your data. If you want me to save your data and copy it back into your new Android system there is an additional charge.
-I can “dual boot” install Android while keeping your current Windows system and data intact. Dual boot install with Windows 7 is €80, for Windows 8/10 the charge is €100. If you want me to copy your Windows data files into the Android system there is an extra charge.
-Another choice is for me to create an Android bootable USB Flash drive (memory stick) or DVD for you. Just plug it into your computer and power up. Your computer will now be running Android while not affecting your Windows system. With this setup any saved data will be lost when you shutdown the computer. A benefit of this method is that none of your passwords or banking details remain in the computer after shutdown, so a lost or stolen computer won’t mean you have to cancel all your cards and change all your passwords. The cost for this is €30, plus the cost of the Flash drive or blank DVD. I will need to change a few settings in your computer for this to work.

Recommendations Needed- for Pensioner

Rapidly approaching OAPship!

Apart from sympathy for the shock horror of it all, I’d appreciate

• the name of any doctor at Torrox ambulatorio with a better

grasp of English than my feeble Spanish, and

• any advice on, and/or websites covering, other worthwhile pensionista benefits.

Many thanks in anticipation. pete in spain @gmailcom

Increase in DAFO Charges – Cómpeta Town Hall

We want to alert anyone currently marketing or planning to market their property in the Cómpeta countryside to the fact that the Town Hall have drastically increased their charges for the DAFO certificate.  We only found out by pure chance.

Having already paid over €1,000 for our property to be measured and for the DAFO application to be submitted to the Town Hall we were expecting to pay €980 for the certificate.

We have since found out that we will now have to pay €3,300!.

Just a slight increase….!

Many times, when there is a storm (thunder/lightning), the supply will often trip out, it is always the main switch (RCD/RCB) “Interruptor diferencial in Spain” in the consumer unit that trips.  When you are away, you need a continuous service in fridge, alarm, swimming pool, that requires a continuous electricity supply.
In this case, it is possible to install a Self-reclosing RCCB to ensure service continuity.

Have checked the net but advice on forums etc is a bit hit and miss.( not to mention jargon from the planet “Zog”)

I can be contacted on: jon 108 @ hotmail.co. uk

Any tips appreciated.

Thankyou all.

Final Post on Poo……

Why is it that Michael thinks that a lot, repeat lot- of dog owners are irresponsible about picking dog poo up.

My wife and I walk the river bank at Torrox Costa every Sunday and every dog owner we see appears to use doggy bags.

There are no bins along this area but we wait until we get to a bin to dispose of said doggy bag and -not seeing any bags laying around – would assume that most people do the same, why tar everyone with the same brush ?
Thanks Ian.

(Final Poo-related post this time round  – thank you – Editor)

 

41 Club Nerja AGM

At the AGM of 41 Club Nerja Jim Skinner from England handed over the Chairmans jewel to Martin Urban from Austria.

Jim was thanked for his fun packed year which resulted in nine new members.  Martin told us of his plans for the next twelve months which includes a boat trip, BBQ,  Ladies Night and many other events.

He plans to involve our ladies more than usual which went down very well with the members.

His year plan can be seen on our website.

41 Club Nerja now has 45 members from nine different countries and is truly an International Club.

We meet twice every month with a meeting on the first Thursday of the month at lunch time with our ladies called ‘Munch Bunch’ and on the third Thursday of the month we have our ‘normal’ meeting where the many events listed above will happen.

Most of our members are only in Spain for short stays during the year so please if you are an Ex Round Tabler visiting Nerja or nearby now and then contact us and join in the fun.

AAR Dog of the Week

 

 

Dog Owners – please think !!

Why is it that a lot of dog owners/walkers refuse to take responsibility for the faeces left by their animals on campo roads, particularly unmade roads? These roads are also used by pedestrians – including children – and vehicles.

The dog faeces is often picked up by tyres, which spread the stuff everywhere, thus making it more liable to be walked in.

The dog mess is a magnet for flies, bluebottles and wasps, especially now the warmer weather is arriving, It is unsightly and a blot on the landscape.

Not a perfect solution – but at the very least move the dog or the faeces to the grassy/overgrown sides of the roads.

Is it possible to have a little more thought, and a lot more hygiene please?

Michael.

Warning – Wallet Stolen !

I had my wallet stolen today whilst walking around Nerja market.

I  had €150 taken plus cards which I have cancelled.

If anyone finds a black wallet with a driving licence & NIE  card still inside would you kindly contact Tim Willcox on 07860346636.

Whoever took it tried to use the card at Tor del Mare within an hour of it being taken but luckily it was declined.
I am always so careful, so beware.

Services Available- Interpreter

If you need to see a doctor, or go to the hospital in the near future, you will need to take an interpreter with you.  Most doctors speak a little English but you can’t rely on it, and they do prefer to have an interpreter there.

It saves them time. The risk of not being able to describe your symptoms or misunderstanding what is said to you, is too great to take a chance.
I was an interpreter/volunteer in the hospital for fifteen years.

So I have the Inside knowledge to get you where you need to go, to see the doctor you need and to help you with any paperwork necessary.

I go to most centros de salud, to  clinics and hospitals in Malaga too.
I don’t charge by the hour.  It’s a flat reasonable fee.

It can Include my collecting you and taken you back.

Aside from international food and drink, you can buy all sorts of crafts, clothes, art and souvenirs. Each day the festival starts at 13:00and runs through the night. Be sure to show your spirit by dressing in your own national attire and have fun dancing to international music and celebrating the cultures from around the globe.

We would greatly appreciate if payment was made before the journey.

Trip to Orgiva Tea Gardens Friday 19^th May

The Orgiva Tea Garden has evolved over the last ten years from a barren patch of land with waist high weeds into a beautiful tranquil garden split over three very different levels and covering about 5000 sq m.
The philosophy with regards to the planting has been to concentrate mainly on Mediterranean plants with help from shade-providing trees and also to take into account our animals as many have free range over the whole garden.
English Teas, refreshments, homemade sandwiches, soups and delicious cakes (ice cream in the summer) are available plus our shop sells local crafts and fresh produce. And of course there is a selection of plants for sale in the garden nursery section.
With a quiz and games for the children, the menagerie of animals as well, the garden can be enjoyed by the whole family and by all ages.

Price?  €25pp includes coach fare, entry to the gardens, lunch and drivers gratuity

Ronda Romantica  Feria Saturday 27^th May

During the three day festivities, locals and visitors are taken on a voyage of discovery to 19^th century Spain, a time of bandits, muleteers and romantic travellers.

Hundreds of locals from Ronda and the surrounding towns and villages participate in this unique recreation of 19^th century life in this stunning part of Andalucia.

Dressed in typical clothes and garments of the time, these colourful characters take part in a historical street parade and representations of different historic events. The sound and smell of gunpowder, artisans markets and equestrian exhibitions are just some of experiences enjoyed by visitors during the celebrations.

The locals also spend hours decorating the streets and shop windows of the city with colourful and eye-catching flowers, plants and banners, transforming Ronda into the most romantic of destinations.

Another of the unquestionable stars of the event are the horses which are also dressed in stunning attire, typical of the 19^th century, and their elegant riders also wearing their traditional garments.

Price?  €20pp

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.
