Blankets for TAIL ……

Services Needed Dog walker needed in Torrox Costa area (near Mercadona)

I am looking for someone who can do 1 to 2 hour walks on leash for a newly rescued older podenco-cross older pup weighting 20 kils. I rescued him from being stuck in a front yard for the first 8 months of his life from well-meaning but clueless Spanish fosterers who took him out at most 15 mins a day . He is well behaved with 4 hours of walks a day but I don’t have the time or energy for that each day so am looking for educated dog walking help.

He is very keen to walk anywhere at all, so long as there are good sniffs. This dog is definitely half Podenco but seems more a scent hound, than sight hound so grass is better than concrete.

You can walk him on leash. He has not been well socialised though is very loveable so you must be able to take precautions including:

ensuring you are between the dog and passers-by
pulling him back from any dog he takes a dislike to (he weighs about 20 kilos and I, as an average sized female, can hold him back)
reinforcing the teaching to sit and calm if he does jump at a dog (about 70% of the time, he loves many dogs, but takes a dislike to a few)
practising precaution with unknowns and keeping a distance with: children on bikes, adults on bikes, adults running/jogging, children or adults making a lot of noise / commotion
keep him away from sudden movements (brace the leash)

If you are interested please email sjanedresser @ gmail.com.
I will walk the first couple of walks with you. He is a loving older pup and always keen for a walk. As I am recovering from chronic illness, 4 hours a day is a bit too much for me so I really need some help. There may be a couple of days in Feb that I need all-day support if you are available.

Days and times are negotiable, as is hourly rate. Please email me with your hourly rate expectation and availability.

If unsure, you are welcome to meet Rafa first, as I too want to ensure he is comfortable with you.

Recommendation –Weston Kennels, Competa-Torrox Road

I would like to leave feed back for Terry Weston kennels.
They looked after our dog like he was their own and Terry’s daughter sent us photos while we were away which was very nice of her.

The kennels are quite a drive for us but it’s worth it and we would recommend them to anyone.
Thank you

Recommendation – Wood Burning Stoves

If you missed my post about Wood burners and are now feeling the cold and need a Log Burner or Pellet stove I recommend Tehisu in Velez Malaga. I was very pleased with their service and skills and made a little film about them because I wanted others to know how good they are. Their contact details are on the film. I have to say on cold mornings such as today in the Campo I am so glad we chose to have one.

You can see the film here – no one paid me for this –

What’s on- Stars of the West End, Mijas Costa

The Phoenix Club are off to a concert at Mijas Costa called “Stars of the West End” – it is a theatre show on Friday 24^th March in the beautiful Las Lagunas Theatre, Mijas Costa (behind El Corté Inglés). The audience at the theatre production will hear songs from “The Phantom of the Opera”, “Les Misérables”, “Jersey Boys”, “Oliver”, “Mama Mia”, “Miss Saigon” and many more during a 2-hour show (2 acts with a 20-minute interval).

The “West End” comes to the Costa de Sol in March 2017 with 3 Principle performers from currently running Musicals arriving with the popular “Stars of the West End” show.

Featuring favourite songs from the most popular musicals, Mike Sterling (Phantom of the Opera), Lisa-Anne Wood (Les Misérables) and Michael Conway (Jersey Boys) bring the very best of musical theatre to Spain. All have had leading roles in the top West End musicals over the years.

Mike Sterling has been an Artiste in Theatre, Television, Concert and recording for the past 23 years. He has starred in major hit musicals in London’s West End, and is known most notably for his interpretation of ‘The Phantom’ in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “The Phantom of the Opera” (over 1000 shows), and ‘Jean Valjean’ in Cameron Mackintosh’s “Les Misérables” which have earned him international acclaim. Thus, to date he has enjoyed an extremely successful career on a global scale, including a 6 month sell out UK tour as ‘Dexter Haven’ in Cole Porter’s ‘High Society’, alongside Wayne Sleep.

Lisa-Anne Wood – Before graduating from the ‘Guildford School of Acting’ Lisa-Anne landed the role of ‘Cosette’ in the Olivier Award-winning cast of “Les Misérables”; this marked her West End debut. Lisa-Anne was ‘Christine’ in “The Phantom of The Opera” at Her Majesty’s theatre and “The Phantom of The Opera” 30th Anniversary Concert Performance. And in 2014, returned for the second year running to star opposite John Barrowman in “Dick McWhittington”.

Michael Conway is currently playing ‘Joe Pesci’ in “The Jersey Boys”, having previously played ‘CC LaDrue’ in “Flashdance – The Musical”, also ‘Fyedka’ in “Fiddler on the Roof” and ‘Prince Charming’ in “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”.

Together, these 3 seasoned performers bring all the fun and emotion of musical theatre in this memorable show, here for the FIRST time on the Costa del Sol.

Date: Friday 24th March
Time: Depart Algarrobo Lidl at 18.00
Price: €32pp includes concert ticket, coach fare and driver’s gratuity. Payment required on booking please

Watch the Space Station here!

I don’t know if any digamites would be interested but we have been watching the Space station passing overhead this morning – if interested Google “spot the station” and you can register to be told when it will be passing, what area (in the sky) and for how long. We started watching it when Tim Peake was on board – perhaps others might enjoy it or pass the information on to family members – you can choose the area you want to know about.

Services Available – Singing Lessons

Hello lovely sunny people, happy new year!

I am an experienced singing teacher and have just moved over to the sunny climes of Nerja – with 5 years worth of teaching experience in London and the South of England I have been lucky enough to teach 7 year olds to 90 year olds, and all the ones in between. I am now wanting to help potential singers over here to.

If you have ever felt like you have wanted singing lessons, or lack confidence with anything in your life, then learning to sing can improve this. If you have breathing troubles, then my technique of combining Classical training and modern training together, can really enhance your life.
Or even if you just love music and singing and your too scared to do this alone I am here to help.

I am a grade 8 classically trained singer, with a degree in Vocal performance from a renowned contemporary music school in Guildford. With experience in Musical theatre and pop, I am a published songwriter. And I have toured California with the 80’s band ABC. Please do check my website –

www.georgiecullum.com

Please do email me georgiecullum@ gmail.com (delete spaces) or call me on 95124 7255 to have a chat about lessons and prices, I am very flexible and I can come to you where ever you are.

I very much hope to hear from you!

Georgie.

Recommendation –Carer

I want to recommend Anna as a caregiver.

She is very attentive, lovely lady.

What’s on- Trip to the zoo at Castellar de la Fronter

The Phoenix Club are off to the Zoo at Castellar de la Frontera on Friday 18th March 2017.hw far is it to Castellar de la Frontera from Torre del Mar

About the Zoo de Castellar – The ‘zoo’ de Castellar is not your typical zoo. It was started as a private rescue sanctuary back in 1998 and was finally opened to the public in 2002.

For years it remained relatively unknown and unvisited. Word of mouth ensuring its survival. Bit-by-bit things are beginning to change. All of the animals have been rescued by the customs or police.

Its location is of no coincidence, conveniently located near the border; most of the residents were victims of illegal animal smuggling between Europe and Africa. Some were also rescued from circuses. From its most famous resident ‘Princessa’, a four month old Bengali Tiger to emus, Vietnamese pot bellied pigs, monkeys, all kinds of birds, a hyena, rabbits, even domestic chickens, the zoo has a wide diversity of animals. Over 500 to be exact, from 120 different species.

The refuge centre opened its doors to the public in 2002, mainly to raise funds for the ever increasing number of animals but also in an attempt to educate visitors to their plight.

The zoo is very open and interactive; we are encouraged to touch and meet the animals.

The facilities are basic and are constantly being updated. You can buy small bags of seeds for 1€ as you enter and can walk around feeding the animals.

The petting areas are well controlled, the staff seem to know what they are doing and above all it is an experience we will not forget.

There are not many places where you can play with a live tiger or feed lemurs by hand.

Recommendation – Scrapping a Vehicle

As it wasn’t mentioned in the original post, I can confirm that you can scrap UK registered vehicles, or any other for that matter, as well as Spanish ones.

I recently scrapped my beloved UK registered LDV van that had broken down.

I called out Desguace Valle Niza, just off exit 265 of the A7/E15.

They sent out a grua to recover the van and took it to the depot.

Be aware that you must have the registration document in your name and identification, as always best to go armed with everything!

They will complete all the paperwork and give you a two copies of the destruction certificate, plus they will return your V5 log book.

I sent a copy of the destruction certificate and the whole V5 log book back to DVLA who confirmed that the vehicle was longer in my name a couple of weeks later.

Valle Niza paid me 150€ for the van as well.

Help the Transition to a New Home.

Every day I interact with dogs as a dedicated fosterer and I’m richer for it.

Very occasionally a day is dominated by dogs, but most days are enhanced by their company. We currently have 4 foster dogs, with 1 shortly moving to her forever home. Longest foster tenure for us has been 1-1/2 years (she needed the extra time and work to prepare) and the shortest was 48 hours. In all cases, I feel supported by other volunteers who are working to help animals.

Fostering a dog is the best way to prepare them for a forever home. They grow more confident as they learn how to depend on their environment for food, exercise, shelter and affection. For many, perhaps most, these things weren’t given previously. In turn, they give back affection and appreciation in spades. I believe that dogs kept in kennels or refuges don’t receive the same benefits that dogs in foster homes do. It only makes sense that a foster home better prepares an animal for their next step – a forever home.

Can you open your home and your heart to temporarily help a dog or a cat? If you are worried about attaching, best way to start out can be to take an animal already adopted who is only awaiting transport.

If you don’t know how to find an animal looking for foster care, I’ll help you connect with local animal charities working hard (all volunteers) to help these animals. Come on, give it a try. You’ll meet some really nice people while helping an animal. Contact Denise 667 299 017 (movil or Whatsapp).

Metamizol and Medication in General

(No more items on the subject. Thanks to all particpants)

As a Registerd Nurse working in the Andalucia (. 25 km radius of Nerja) I would say.Metamizol has its use in end of life care and even then may not be acceptable to different individuals.

I am regularly finding that I am asked to visit people who have been over prescribed pain relief especially the elderly after operations.

There are often drug errors when two different types of medication are prescribed which drop a patient’s blood pressure and I ” pick up on them'” ( no pun intended) when I am called to see a patient who is having falls.

There are also issues when patients have electrolyte imbalances and have a few different ” water pills” on the go and develop incontinence and confusion as a result..

It is always worth asking the doctor to explain what the prescribed medication is for..what the Doctor prescribes may not exactly match what the patient thinks they are getting ,! Also consider the answer may not always be ” one more tablet”

Treatment – orthodox or alternative

There seems to be a fairly constant flow of comments on this website about the benefits of, or the dangers of, either orthodox or alternative medical treatments. Some worry me and as a retired doctor I would like to offer some of my thoughts.
All treatments, whether Orthodox or alternative are designed to change the way the body works. If they are not capable of doing that they are ineffective and not worth spending any money on. But if they can affect the body they can also have adverse effects.
The most important first step in curing any problem is to know what you are treating. Alternative practitioners will rarely undertake blood tests and other investigations, relying solely on taking a history and physical examination. Do not trust any practitioner that only offers a cursory examination and does not take a proper history. Doctors are legally responsible for the quality of their work and although they do make mistakes, you do have redress and their career depends upon the quality of their work.
Once you know that your condition is not serious the next step is to accept that many conditions will get better by themselves in time if your body is allowed to heal itself. Some forms of “alternative medicine” rely on this natural healing process whilst emptying your wallet. Use Google to check out reputable websites to discover the benefits of the treatment that you are being offered.
Often the most effective treatment is the cheapest but most unpalatable, such as losing weight, stopping smoking or cutting out the alcohol, even all three together! Do not expect any therapist to make you better by themselves, the greatest effort has to come from yourself.
We are what we eat, and indeed most of our medicines come from herbs and plants. A balanced diet from fresh produce is always a sensible lifestyle. You can be intolerant to ingredients in your diet without actually being allergic to them. Identifying the cause is always difficult, but is made impossible if you do not know what is in the food you are eating. Even if you are well informed, the knowledge of catering staff and language problems make this a very difficult problem to manage here.
When treatment involves massage or manipulation you are very dependent upon the skill of the individual practitioner. Qualifications and certificates on the wall mean little, personal recommendation from friends who have got better is the most effective endorsement.
What ever the medical problem please do not put your blind faith in what ever the practitioner says. We all get it wrong sometimes. If you do not understand something, ask. A reputable practitioner will always want their patients to understand what is happening. It is your body, it is your responsibility to look after it. Do not blame any practitioner if you are not prepared to do that.
Vic

Nolotil (Metamizol)

Thanks to a warning from Naythan in yesterday’s Digame

I have now disposed of the Metamizol capsules prescribed by my doctor for an arthritic condition 18 months ago. I had read in a local magazine that Nolotil could be very dangerous, but had no idea that Metamizol was the generic name. I have suffered from various side affects which could now be attributed to this medication. Lynne

DoctorLaptop’s Tips #58 and Special Deal
-Websites you shop on can read your metadata. They know what type computer, operating system and browser you are using, unless you use a VPN/proxy connection that blocks metadata transfer. The prices they display on items you view are calculated using this info. Old computers using outdated systems and browsers are shown lower prices on items. New, expensive computers with the latest software are shown higher prices on the same items.
-A new email threat has emerged. Most people know to avoid downloading attachments and clicking links in email from unknown senders. This new type of “phishing email”, named “spymail”, looks legitimate to you because it’s been customized for you using true personal info from other emails in your inbox. Spymail has hidden embedded trackers that log recipient data like reading habits, keywords, and demographic and psychographic information without requiring you to open an attachment or click on anything. Though many email trackers are used for legitimate purposes, malicious spymail has emerged as a fast growing problem. There is no practical solution yet for casual users besides checking the sender’s email address for suspicious sounding addresses before opening your emails. Read more about spymail and a possible but geeky solution at:

-John McAfee, a pioneer of antivirus protection, no longer associated with McAfee AntiVirus, is working on a new generation of malware protection to replace the increasingly ineffective antivirus systems we currently use, and also a distributed non-peer-to-peer system that will make the cloud completely obsolete. Early releases of these projects could be available before year’s end from new company MGT. It’s about time…

Special Deal: Clean and Tune-up any laptop, only €35 for Win 7, €40 for all others. Removes all malware, unnecessary programs and infections. Includes pro-level memory and registry defrag (better than Windows defrag that does not defrag registry) and optimizes performance. Fan and internal cleaning included. This service is for slow but otherwise healthy units. Heavily infected units and those showing error messages may cost more. All computers should have an annual professional maintenance. Most jobs finished over-night. This special ends 01Feb17.

Recommendation – Knitted Knockers

After seeing a post on Digame, I went to meet the local members of the Knitted Knockers charity today at Los Yucas in Torre del Mar, who were guests of the knitting club who meet there. Knitted knockers provide lightweight, 100% cotton, knitted knockers free to anyone who has had a mastectomy.

I had such a warm welcome and was quickly put at ease. I had been considering a reconstruction of my breast following my mastectomy as I find my prosthetic breast so heavy and uncomfortable to wear, in fact I only ever wore it if I was going out. Imagine my delight at being given a knitted knocker there and then and to discover that they also knit ones that are suitable to use for swimming.

I have been wearing it all day with no discomfort and it has really helped me to finally make the decision not to put myself at further risk of having more surgery.

So all you ladies out there who have also had mastectomies and would like an alternative to your prosthetic get in touch. What have you got to loose, they are free and just maybe a knitted knocker, or knockers, will be just right for you too. All you need is your cup size and decide what colour you would like, they do a large range of colours too.

You can order your knitted Knockers at www.kkscostadelsol.org you can also join the knitted knockers in Spain:Costa del Sol group on Facebook

What’s on – Namaste to all Diagame readers! Yoga Classes

Solyoga is back from Christmas holiday and our regular Yoga classes will start on Monday 16.1.17 again! To open the Yoga session we meet for a special session on Sunday, 15.1.17 at 11.00 h at the beautiful Casa El Morisco in Benajarafe. I have 3 places left.

And for those who do not know me yet: My name is Kiki Trenew. I am practising Yoga since 15 years – nearly every day – and it changed my life. To understand Yoga you have to practise regular. You could say: “YOGA is the journey of the self, through the self, to the self!”.

With increasing practise your power, confidence & well-being will grow slowly. Your view will go to the inside and this can make a change in your life.

Everybody can practise my Yoga whatever age or physical condition. I always work in little groups and i will adapt the Yoga posture to every single student. I mix Ayur Yoga, therapeutic Yoga, Yin Yoga & Vinyasa Flow Yoga – the basic you will find in Hatha Yoga. Every class can be different as i always work in needs of my students. Come along and try out and learn to boost & stretch in a healthy way:

Mondays 10.30 h and 20.30 h in Nerja & 12.15 h in Torrox Yoga for everybody

Wednesdays 10.30 h in Nerja Yoga for golfers (men only)

Thursdays 18 h in Torrox Yoga for everybody

For those who don’t like to work in a group, i offer one-to-one sessions in Nerja or at your residence.

For more information visit my website: www.solyoga.es, call me +34 627 411 358 or email me info.solyoga @ gmail.com

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend

Just a brief suggestion for some of your postings.

Sometimes events are publicised by reproducing a poster of the upcoming event. But the copy is often too small or out of focus to legible.
Secondly, on quite a few occasions I have been intrigued by the details of an upcoming event only to find there is no listing for the address. There seems to be an assumption that everyone knows where such and such a bar is.
Just a couple of random thoughts.

Peña Escrito Zoo ?

Does anyone out there have any information on the current status of the Peña Escrita zoo situated in the hills north of Almuñécar? I am enquiring as their upper parking lot is a preferred starting point for ascending Navachica. The last status I have is that the gate at the lower end of the road is chained and locked. The word is that the animals are being relocated due to concerns raised by the SPCA. So, the salient question is whether the road will be opened to the public at some point, if it hasn’t been already!
Answers to DigameXtra please as I’m sure there are other concerned hikers out there.

This is a Warning from Doctor Laptop

Following his serious illness – brought on by taking this drug, initially administered at a local hospital as well as suggested by a local clinic and available in Spain without prescription…..he would like us all to be aware of the danger. Thanks Naythan !

Say NO to Nolotil (Metamizol)

Warning: This drug, prescribed as a common painkiller to holidaymakers in Spain, is potentially ‘toxic’. For unknown reasons Brits and the Irish are especially vulnerable. (I am only a quarter Irish and it nearly killed me)

William “Billy” Smyth, 66, from Ireland died from septic shock after taking Nolotil for five days – a drug banned in the UK and Ireland…

Metamizol is the generic name for a drug that also goes under the names of Dipyrone, Analgin, Novalgin, and Melubrin. It is a non-opioid pain-reliever and fever-reducer. It was available all over the world from the 1920’s to the 1970’s, but at that point it was discovered that Metamizol carries with it a small risk of causing agranulocytosis, a potentially fatal condition characterized by a dangerous drop in white blood cells.

What’s on- Manouche jazz in Nerja

Gypsy jazz (also known as gypsy swing or hot club jazz) is a style of jazz music often said to have been started by guitarist Jean “Django” Reinhardt in the 1930s. Because its origins are in France it is often called by the French name, “jazz manouche”, or alternatively, “manouche jazz”, even in English language sources. The term is now commonly used for this style of music. Many of the musicians in this style worked in Paris in various popular Musette ensembles. The Musette style waltz remains an important component in the gypsy jazz repertoire.

Car Insurance Question

Refund of insurance premium when you sell your car?
We had our car insurance with Caser. After we sold our car and we did not intend to buy a new one, we asked Caser to refund part of the premium. Because if there is no object to insure, there is not premium to pay. At least, that’s what we thought.
But Caser does not refund anything. We have a contract for a year and we have to pay for the full year, even after selling our car.
Is this normal in Spain?

Internet reception …advice please

Please can someone in Digameland please tell me simply what has been happening in the Penoncillo area of Torrox Costa where fiber optic cables have been put in.
At the moment I have Internet signal from a dish on a nearby apartment block supplied by a German guy who does a lot of Torrox area.

It is a cheapish system but sadly not always reliable .
Great , when it all works BUT !! Not reliable . m
Will fiber optics be better ? How does it work ? Who supplies this service ?

How expensive is it ?
I am sure others will be interested in the replies so maybe they can be published so we all can stay up to date .
Thanks Judy

Please reply to Digamextra

DoctorLaptop replies: Fiber optic is great. Mine is super fast and reliable. I use Axartel as all the other providers I found insist on selling you packages with TV and/or phone service to get the fiber optic installed. I pay €24.99 per month for a 60Mb/s connection. Install was under €70. They run a cable from the neighborhood box to your house. That cable connects to a new router in your home, with both wifi and ethernet available for you to connect your computers to. Here is their website in English: http://www.axartel.es/en

Services – Postal Rates to the Netherlands

My cousin’s daughter who lives in the Netherlands is getting married

in Nerja in April.

She wants to find out how much the postage would be to send her

wedding dress back to Holland rather than cart it back on the plane.

( She could wear it I suppose).

I haven’t got time to camp out at the Correos in town,

so does any Digamite have any idea what the postal rates would be?

Thanks.

Recommendation –Doing a Search of Digamextra

I strongly agree with the many people who have struggled to find previous items in Digamextra. It is a very poor Search System (IMO)

Here’s what I do using my Google email account

I type in a keyword (or 2) which I remember from the original entry.

Press the Search/Enter button and you will get a page listing a selection of Daily Digamextras. Just look at those few words that appear at the end of each headline. You should be able to identify a relevant item.

If not – you have to plod through those Issues listed ….. a process that let’s you decide how important that search is compared with enjoying the rest of your life…….

Good luck

Jane (Editor)

Note from DoctorLaptop: Easy method to search Digamextra even if you don’t subscribe. Please try this if you have had problems searching for old Digamextra posts. Use plain old Google search. Enter “Digamextra + any item” (without quote marks) and hit enter. You will get results of every issue containing the term you searched for, with the date it was posted and with a small snippet of the post’s text where that search term was found (that should be enough to identify the post you seek). Then scroll down thru the Google results and look for the snippet of the post you were seeking using the date shown as an extra guide if you know the approximate date it was posted (see pic below). When you find it click on it. It will open that Digamextra issue where you will find the post you seek. Looking for very old posts? Then use Digame instead of Digamextra in the search. I really cannot make it any more straight forward.

In an effort to keep all the Digamites happy, if you try this method but still have difficulty please call me on 675 993 069 (after 12 noon please). I will schedule you for a FREE lesson where I coach you on this method until you are confident you have mastered it. We really do try our best to accommodate our faithful audience. Lessons need to be done at my shop as I still can not walk very well.

Recommendation- Revisiting an Item from CDS News…

I read in the Costa del Sol News 5-12-2017 Tom Drapers article “Brit Scene” page 17.
I found it most interesting as it refers to an organisation that is growing in stature.
I posted a reference to this same organisation in Digamextra, issue 458.
I am posting this in case some of you missed it and hope you and others will check it out, I find Tom’s page quite enlightening and humorous.
Here’s hoping.

Dog Lovers (or not) please read and help

Original News Item:-

You have all heard of dogs helping us humans, sheep dogs, guide dogs, assistance dogs, and various others.

My favourite one is Medical Detection dogs. It is slowly becoming recognised by the medical profession .

These dogs are being trained to detect various illness just by sniffing a urine sample etc. It has been proved they can detect cancer almost before it has started!

If this became the norm, say annual or by annual tests, just think in a short time with government funding how it would take the load off the NHS.

Its a WIN WIN situation.

Just go on line and read about it, at the moment its sponsor and donation
