Cat Lovers – please advise

Please could cat lovers offer some advice. About 2 months ago we found that a little cat, no more than a kitten herself had delivered 3 kittens in a hole under our Algarrobo tree. We began to feed her and the kittens when they were ready to eat solid food. They are no trouble and we are happy for them to live in our garden but will need ensure that there are no more suprises. Having had her kittens how long do we need to wait before she can have the op be sterilised? Also the kittens will all need to have ops, when will this need to be? As this is looking to be expensive where would readers recommend us to take them please and are there any organisations that could help with this unexpected cost?
Many thanks

Kitten Seeking New Home

Fireworks

The loud frightening bangs, that the Spanish  call fireworks, are usually set off around September 7 th. I believe it’s a tradition to do this , to celebrate the end of their harvest.  They also use to have small bonfires in the campo as well, but this is not so frequently done now, and there is certainly less fireworks now, compared to 15 yrs ago.

Dog Beach

Well done to Torre del Mar for opening a dog beach. Saw it in the news papers

on the internet and even YouTube but where is it and how to find it is the question.

Perhaps a small map would have been a good idea.

Can anyone advise where to look because I would love to take my dogs.

 

 

 

Services Needed –Urgent Help with Gas Supply

Cata gas hob injectors
I had a new gas hob fitted but I don’t think they fitted the correct injectors for a butane gas bottle as the flame is burning orange at the top and is leaving horrible thick layers of soot round the pans.  The rings aren’t burning correctly and there is a strong smell of gas.  The company are apparently on holiday in August so won’t come out and I am on holiday here for a month with my children. Can anyone please advise where I may be able to get some replacement injectors?
All help and advice welcomed.
Reply to Digamextra-  as it may be useful for others. Many thanks. M.

Services Needed- Fridge-Freezer not getting cold

We have an integrated Balay fridge/freezer.  The freezer is working OK but the upper fridge has now stopped getting cold.  We have turned it up to its highest setting, checked there is nothing blocking any holes at the back where the cold air comes in from the freezer.  Defrosted the freezer, pulled the whole unit out to check for blockages and did a general clean at the back and left unit unplugged for about an hour, all to  no avail.
Is it too late for the fridge/freezer to be repaired ie could there be a component for the fridge part that needs replacing or should we just get a new unit?  Any ideas anyone please.

– “Pokémon Go” has become the hottest iPhone and Android game ever. Many gaming and tutorial websites have offered tutorials recommending users download Pokémon Go from a non “Google Play website” link. Security researchers warn that many of these online tutorials are linked to malicious versions of the Pokémon Go app that installs a backdoor on Android phones, enabling hackers to compromise a user’s device completely.

Recommendation-Alioli Restaurant

Something we often smother under the taste of our restaurant meals is service, Service with a smile, an interest and sincere desire to make sure everything is just right for you. A genuine caring and a warmth from Carmenita at AliOli in Competa on Vendimia Plaza.

It´s a greasy spoon with culture and gourmet food, vegan and vegetarian. Carrmenita speaks Indonesian, Dutch, Spanish, and knows how to make what you like and keep it cheap, too. The rmenu del dia, including postre, are under €10.

You can ask for the Black Ader series on the TV and laugh your arse off while eating and enjoy spicy or whatever kind of spicy food you want.

It´s all fresh, healthy, creative, vegetarian and vegan. It´s the go to restaurante for new people, new and healthy food that tastes great.

Fireworks at Feria Time

Your correspondent tells us that the ‘bangers/rockets/mortars’ are set off to let people in outlying areas know that the feria is about to start.

This does not tell us why they are set off throughout the day.

I know this applies to my area, where we often have 3 or 4 in rapid succession and then at intervals throughout the day & evening, often until 1:00am.

There doesn’t seem to be any explanation other than, “It’s traditional”!!!

Fireworks at the Feria – Explanation

Having lived in inland Spain for 12 years. It is my understanding that the bangers that are set off before fiestas and ferias, are to let people in outlying areas, farms etc that the fun is about to begin and they should make their way there. Remember there were no phones, radios, TVs til recently in rural areas.

Blog Entries – A Personal View

Jane & her ‘associates’ do an admirable job posting our messages, ads and questions in a timely and reliable fashion.

It is impossible for her to know in all cases what is legal or not or what might somehow contravene some law, and we shouldn’t expect her to.

Don’t shoot the (invaluable) messenger.

I hope we all agree that it is the responsibility of the ‘poster’ to know the legality of what goods or service they MAY happen subsequently to provide.

Even though there may be some obscure (and pea-brained) rule that tries to pin some responsibility on the publisher, I trust that collectively we hold DigamExtra harmless and support Jane in her role as messenger.

N.

Response – Crikey, thank you and Iwish I did have “Associates” – I’d get a day off occasionally! Jx

The area was along the coast road between the turning for Torrox Park (el Pino campsite) and the ” Virgen de Mar” Rock..

Services Needed

I have recommended this before as a TV option, but it was some time back.  We have a subscription for satellite TV via Movistar + (used to be Canal +) with the option to record programmes.  Every programme can be changed back to its original language (even after recording it) and a lot of the programming is similar to Sky (NCIS, Hawaii 5 O, Bones etc, etc).  Additionally they show BBC and other English presented documentaries and some TV shows from UK terrestrial TV channels (Happy Valley, Downton Abbey, Granchester etc).  Additionally there are channels dedicated to Formula 1, football and other sports.  The price of course depends on the package you want.  It isn’t the cheapest option by far, but it works well and is 100% legal.  Linda

By the Way…..

I appreciate the ban on foreign TV services, , but this is Spanish TV (which is advertised in Eroski and other places) which legally buys programmes from the US etc and broadcasts them.  We would never have any illegal system as many expats do, let alone recommend them to others.  Please spare a minute to look at the website and you will see how good it is.  It is possible to change the language on any Spanish TV station – RTVE, Antenna 3 etc.

Recommendation House and Pet sitting

We found S&T Home and Pet Services from a Facebook posting. I contacted Sarah and met her and her husband (Tony) so that they could meet our 3 big dogs. We felt at ease having met them and booked for an 11 day house and pet sit while we went to the UK.

When they arrived to start the house sit they helped us fit the car roof box before we left – definitely over and above what we might have expected.

We were delighted with the updates we received while we were away, it put our minds at rest that the dogs were well looked after. And on our return the house was clean and sparkling, Sarah even changed the beds! The dogs were relaxed and happy.

All in all we would strongly recommend Sarah and Tony for house and pet sitting. We will definitely be using their services again.

Recommendation– Healthfully and Heartily Recommend AliOli Bistro

also known as LA Bkita Verde, and for good reason

Since 12 July the eatery has gone heavily vegetarian and vegan with its lunches, breakfasts and for vegans, 24-hour notice (952 516137) ask for Chris to fix you something very vegan very special.

Reserve time and have eating experience of your life. I did this twice. Once I popped in. No one was there. It was after the kitchen closed. Chris was there pacing in the kitchen. I said can you sort about back there and just put anything together totally vegan.

The Black Adder was playing on the tele, hilarious episodes. I had a couple of beers, a great  and tasty, innovative vegan meal, beautifully spiced and presented. Shame I was all alone for such gourmet food. For the tastiest veggie and vegan food, I really think that AliOli is the go to place in Competa, at Vendimia Plaza.

Wheelchair Needed for  One Day- Urgent !

Dear Digamists, my Mother has had a hip transplant and isn’t walking great yet and said it would be too much for her to come along because walking thru a city would still be to much for her. But on Thursday (yes this Thursday) we are going to Malaga ( only the ladies) to buy fabric for a special dress  and really would like to take her along with us. So the idea was born that if someone has a wheelchair they could miss for a day we could take her along on our day out. We can pick it up on the coast and return it safely.

Hope dies last, so I’m hoping someone can help on short notice.

Thank you in advance, email pstork58@gmail.com

Please Home Guapo !

Guapo Cat

Please, please is there anyone in Digameland who can offer a furever home to our beloved siamese cat Guapo? Approx 8yrs and microchipped, vaccinated etc. Typical Siamese temperament, a liitle fiesty at times and rather spoiled. Needs to be an only cat where he can sleep on the terrace all day and on your bed at night and be fed on demand . He is not a ratter or mouser…such things are beneath his dignity. We have to return to the UK end of September and are devastated. He has been our baby since he adopted us over 7 years ago. If you could love Guapo please email thecarterbells@gmail.com

Recommendation Dealing with White Flies on Cacti

Even my best friends would not recommend my cooking or gardening but here is an idea to deal with those all pervading cactus flies (and other insects).   Pop down to Supersol Torrox Costa (I have no connection) and buy a bottle of that wonderful Domestos Bleach.  Try a dilute mixture to spray on your cacti (the white stuff) assuming you can get to the ones close to your house which are likely to be the problem.  This works really well for ants too, spray in their nest holes and on their routes – mine vanished weeks ago.  Now, all those little white flies can be removed from windows and surfaces with a sticky clothes hair remover roller – great fun and you should see the wonderful colour !

I still have ‘Billy’ the lovely little Podenco Andaluz looking for a home !

Recommendation– House and Pet Sitting Service- Maria Erving

Maria house sat for my 3 cats recently at short notice. She took extremely good care of them, especially my old cat who has to be encouraged to eat. She obviously loves animals and sent me regular photos and updates by WhatsApp. She also took good care of the house and it was more clean and tidy than I left it, to my shame!

It is never easy to leave someone in charge of your house and animals for the first time.

I found Maria to be a very likeable, reliable and honest person and from the outset felt very comfortable in trusting her with my home and pets. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone for house and pet sitting.   JW

Whats on-Phoenix Club Excursion to Festival of 3 Cultures

The Phoenix Club are off to celebrate the Festival of the 3 Cultures in Frigiliana.   The Three Cultures Festival of Frigiliana was created in 2006. The local government wanted to promote the village as a quality tourist destination and created the annual event combining culture, music, cuisine and theatre in a celebration of the historic and rare co-existence of Christian, Jewish and Muslim traditions. The event now attracts thousands of people to Frigiliana and gets significantly bigger year on year.

The festival is centered around the main Plaza de las Tres Culturas in the centre of Frigiliana where over 150 stalls selling food, clothes and local produce all vie for attention. A large music concert with stage and seating takes place here each night with a late fireworks display and programs are available in English and Spanish

Visitors will also encounter many medieval street performers and belly dancers, film screenings and craft workshops as they wander the streets from the Parque de Andalucia to the Plaza de Iglesia.  Existing and pop-up restaurants design culturally-themed menus around each religion.  There is a popular projector show at the San Antonio de Padua church celebrating the cultures with a slideshow of images against the white wall.

The Three Cultures Tapa Route – Hundreds of visitors also complete the two popular tapa routes passing bars and stands around the village which offer tapas and drinks for €1.50-€2.  If you pop into the official marquee in the centre of Frigiliana at the beginning of the evening you will pick up a card to be stamped at each bar before getting a free commemorative t-shirt at the end of the night. There are actually 2 tapas routes – one with a Moorish theme, the other Mudejay – and those who make it to all 21 bars receive a ruck sack.

Date:  Friday 26th August 2016
Time: Depart Algarrobo Lidl at 18.30

Price:  €12pp includes drivers gratuity
For more information or to book call Gail on 951067723, email phoenixsocialclub@yahoo.co.uk or catch us on the web at www.phoenixsocialclub.co.uk.

The Phoenix club is a registered organisation raising funds for 3 local charities and Help4Heroes in the UK.  We meet every Tuesday at La Vega Restaurant, Torre del Mar between 12 and 2 and you can book or pay from 12.15 onwards.  Do pop in and meet us.

 Question re Ferias…..Can anyone enlighten us as to the origins of the curious custom at
Ferias, of the letting off
of an odd type of firework, nothing to look at, just a loud explosion,
not unlike a trench mortar being fired.  What are they for, apart from
scaring the hell out of the local canine population?
Firework displays I understand and admire, but these senseless
explosions…..!  I would be interested to know their origin, and
indeed their purpose.  Any replies please to Digame, so that we may
all learn something.

 

 

 

Taking a Cat by Air to UK – Advice Please

CAT02A friend of mine has to take her cat home to UK, she will

travel on the 16th of September from Malaga to Gatwick and wants to bring her cat with her.

We tried everything but British Airways does not say anything and she does not know how to book the kennel for the cat.

Could you help me you, could you phone her (her name is Ada and her phone number is 95 252 8427) or could you send me an email on

neppobrouwers @ yahoo.ca?

 

 

Services Needed –  

My husband and I are shipping 7 large boxes from the U.S. to Malaga – with the final destination being La Herradura. (35 cubic feet total)

I’m looking for someone who has a van to drive me to the port and bring the 7 boxes back to La Herradura.  Experience with international shipping would be a great bonus.

This is my first time sending things from home. I know when I arrive at the airport, no one goes through my suitcase. I don’t know if the port is as lax as the airport.

I will be bringing household goods to Spain.

Basically used items that I’m not able to get in Spain. If anyone knows of an agent who can help with the process, please send along their information.

I’m just not sure having a “Professional” is necessary. As it’s just used household goods, it feels a bit like over kill but I don’t want to run into any problems and my Spanish isn’t great.

Any suggestions or advice would be very much appreciated.

The boxes won’t arrive until the first week in December.

I know it’s a bit early to be making plans but I want to get everything in order in advance to make for a stress free pick up. I’ve heard horror stories about paper work in Spain and I certainly don’t want to get down there and leave without being able to take my boxes.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

White Lines in Competa – Reposte

I would like it to be known that the query from David G. regarding the white demarcation lines in the Competa plaza did not come from me.

I would not wish that those who know me might think that I was incapable of approaching the Mayor directly, or worse, that I was remotely interested in the matter.

To be constructive, it would be helpful if people could put an identifiable name to  their mail.David  Garner

 

The bars and restaurants in the village need to make as much money as they can during the summer months, thus enabling them to stay open throughout the winter , which is of great benefit to locals and winter visitors alike. I think that a little tolerance should be shown, and minor inconvenience at this time of year a small price to pay. So, David, please don’t make a fuss. There is a Spanish saying “No te ahogues en un vaso de agua” which, although not a literal translation, means “don’t sweat the small stuff “!     Steve       Competa

(Editor writes – Excellent reposte Steve…. Which closes this subject. Jane)

The subject line of the email should be what you’d like to see as your heading – otherwise, I choose a subject line

The text of the email should be what you’d like to see published – but note:

 Prices must be included with items for sale.

If your first attempt to sell fails, note that a second attempt will not be allowed unless the original price is reduced considerably, nor for at least 2 weeks later.

Photos will only be published once.

Photos must be in JPG or JPEG Format

Please do not send ads for property / real estate.

All formatting, pretty colours, bold, underlining, strange fonts etc are automatically removed.

Please – Don’t use all Block CAPITALS LIKE THIS or I may have to send it back for you to put into normal case (This is the way people normally write, with capital letters where appropriate – such as “I” and place names “Malaga”, makers’ names such as “Electrolux”,    days of the week “Monday”

You must include contact details, either an email address or a telephone number in the text. If you don’t I cannot publish it. Often I cannot “extract “your email address from the email, so repeat it please.

This is not a service for local companies to exploit.

The decision about what to publish is mine, if I don’t want to publish then I won’t.

About Photos and other attachments

If you want to send a picture please send it as an attachment to your email, in JPG or JPEG format and try and keep the size down to around 200KB.

Please don’t send PDFs or Word documents.

Your email address must be quoted in this forrmat…I insert spaces within the address so that nasty software can’t steal their address for spam purposes – e,g, my address is correctly   janekirkspain@gmail,com

if it were a Contributor’s address I’d insert spaces thus –

janekirkspain @ gmail,com.

So all you do is remove those spaces before contacting a contributor. 

New Rules for Blog

The rules for Blogs have changed and it now means that I could face a fine if I publish any negative reviews of any person or company – even though it may be true or half true.

 Thank you – Working together we can achieve so much!       Jane
