Emergency Appeal  

Pedro Emergency

Axarquia Animal Rescue desperately need your help. This young male cat was hit by a car and is recovering well. He wasn’t chipped and no owner has come forward. AAR are paying all his vet bills. Sadly he has tested positive for Feline leukaemia. He can only be homed as an ‘only cat’ and will need to stay indoors, or can share a home with other leukaemia positive cats.

Does ANYONE know someone who has a Leukaemia Positive cat and may be willing to open their heart and home to Pedro? He is loving, friendly and in good health. I really can’t stress how URGENT this is now. We only have a window of a couple of days to find him a home. Please help us to help Pedro. Email axarquia-rescue@hotmail.com

Another Cat Savaged by Dogs in Torrox Campo

Desperately need help in identifying owner of 2 dogs escaped or let loose in Benemar area of Torrox campo. Yesterday afternoon (Sunday) I experienced the trauma of having to witness one of the cats at my home being savaged by 2 dogs outside my patio doors. This is not the first time; on another occasion my car was seriously damaged at a cost of €1,500 when the same 2 dogs attacked another cat. The cat took refuge under my car and the dogs literally “attacked” the car in order to get at the cat; the front bonnet was not just scratched but had deep indentations from where they were “biting” the bonnet and the under -carriage of the car was ripped away in their frenzy.
My nearest neighbour also confirmed that on the previous day (Saturday) these same 2 dogs had caused damage to their car when they chased a cat who took refuge on the undercarriage of their car.
Back to yesterday after chasing the dogs away it was clear the cat was still alive but was dragging its whole body and back legs and took cover under a cover by the pool; clearly it’s back was broken and within minuets I called a vet whose number by the way was given to me by Sue of the organizsation “TAIL”.
I spent the next 2 hours roaming the main tracks seeking out the dogs and calling at properties to ask if anyone knew of 2 such dogs who lived in the area. Nobody could identify the dogs or their owners but 2 separate people confirmed that 2 other cat and dog owners had had their animals attacked by dogs of the same description; one on their own property whose dog was seriously injured and the second a lady who was walking her dog. This lady apparently felt threatened by the dogs herself.
I apologise for the length of this notice, but am trying to emphasize the urgent need to identify the owners of these dogs in order to prevent further similar incidents. I cannot over emphasize the trauma I experienced in witnessing the savage attack on a poor defenseless cat, which is my main concern. However, don’t let’s forget the €1,500 damage caused to my car on my own land, protected by a 3 meter high wall and a solid electric gate. In order to gain access to this particular vicinity these dogs would have had to enter my parcel via the campo and follow a trail of several hundreds of meters to reach the house.
In conclusion the description of these dogs: one totally black the other tan/black, both with reasonably thick coats, and both of medium size. (Say of knee height). Both animals seemed in reasonable condition.
The area was in Pago Benemar (at the newish roundabout, cross over the bridge and turn immediately right (not the left for the Frigiliana road) Approximately 200 meters of black Tarmac the road bears to the left with an “S” bend, continues on passing a wooden house on the right and a mobile home on the left to another sharp bend and continues and continues. The dogs gain access by crossing the land of numerous properties but come from the direction of the track threading up the mountain.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help if you have any knowledge of where these dogs come from, or who is responsible for them. Also if anyone has experienced similar incidents, please share. The main goal is to prevent any similar trauma to both animals and people.
Thank you in advance.

Fix for recent windows 7 problem

Further to Rep’s contribution simplifying the information concerning the Windows 7 ‘red screen’ issue, I would add the following:

(a) Not all Asus motherboards are affected by this problem, only those with a UEFI BIOS, which Asus only began to introduce in late 2011.  So older computers are not affected.

(b) Although the steps shown on the Asus support page are fairly simply, users without a great deal of technical knowledge should seek help from a more knowledgeable friend rather than trying to apply the fix themselves.  If you mess up the boot settings, you will only cause yourself more problems.

German Shepherd Dog seen roaming

A male Alsatian and his black collie dog friend were seen wandering on the mountain track from the helicopter pad towards Acebuchel near the ford  on Saturday afternoon 7 May, around 4pm.

The Alsatian is wearing a leather collar and both dogs seem friendly.

I am guessing they are lost or have been dumped.

If either dog is yours or you can rescue them please recover them soon

as they are obviously hungry.

Scary Happening in Competa – Warning
.I wanted to share with everyone what happened last night at our house in the area of Cruz de Zarja, Competa.

We had a friend come for the evening so main gates to our property were open and our car and hers were parked on the drive. Several rooms had lights on.

We had  music playing, and we were talking, so quite obviously someone was in the house

About 9.30pm we heard a noise outside and what sounded like our sun room door opening and closing.

I got up, went into the sun room followed by my husband to see a man outside. He went “BOOO !!” …. to us then ran away very fast.

He was white about 5ft.9, wearing light coloured trousers and a dark hooded top. We found it very frightening and unnerving to say the least.

Was it a potential burglar or what was he up to?

He disappeared into the night.

No sign of anybody else or any car, so please be vigilant and keep your doors locked.

Did anyone else have a similar experience? if so please post on Digamextra

 

Pavo Real Quiz in aid of Cudeca Cancer Care-Thanks

Many thanks to Karina and Paul Watson of Pavo Real for their hospitality together with Liz and Stewart Bland for organising the quiz and everyone for their continued support to Cudeca.   Thank you.   Cindy Jones,  Cudeca Volunteer.

 

Non Residents & UK Registered Cars
I know that you said that todays’ (Sunday) post would be the last on the matter, however a statement made by Tony Pulle is incorrect, and I do feel that it needs addressing.

He states that a non resident cannot own a Spanish registered car, which is totaly incorrect. Prior to moving out to live in Spain full time, we owned a Spanish registered car which was kept at our holiday home and  used  when we were here. In order to purchase it we needed an NIE and insurance, and it needed to be kept roadworthy and subject to a periodic ITV test.

I hope that you will publish this as many readers will have been mislead.

Best wishes,

Steve

Recommendation – Namaste

We would just like to say, we were in Nerja earlier this week & came across-

Namaste –  a new Nepalese & Indian Restaurant in Calle Cristo (Post Office Street).

They  have been open a couple of months & the food was excellent,

one of the best on the coast.

Try it, we are sure you will return.

Jules and Jim. Competa

 

 

Recommendation- The Orangerie Torrox Costa

Two days ago we sampled the allegedly “Best ribs on the Costa Del Sol.”

Well, don’t know about that, but they were certainly the best we’ve tasted

so far here on the Costa.

Today we went back and tried the Dutch tapas menu, and again we weren’t

disappointed.

The staff were cheery and helpful, and very efficient, and they guided us

through their menu, and advised us what to sample. They couldn’t do enough.

We ate outside, but the restaurant itself was clean, with excellent disabled access and toilets, should it be required.

It is situated near the lighthouse in Torrox, (don’t let the beach works put you off.)

Open every day except Tuesday from 11am – 9.30pm, although this is flexible

depending on the amount of customers left.

Two happy customers.

Geoff and Maria.

 

 

Recommendation- Doctor Laptop  

bouq Dog

Can I propose a bouquet for Naythan, Doctorlaptop.   First for his information and warnings to the community.  Secondly for the generous way he is willing to give help and information by email.  I am not even a ‘customer’ yet but his advice has helped me a lot as my technical expertise is fast getting dated.

I know where I will be going with any computer problems

UK Reg RHD car in Spain

Digamites would be interested in my experience of owning and using a UK reg RHD as a non-resident in Spain.

Residency in Spain would require you to exchange your driving Licence for a Spanish one. (As I did in Germany for a German driving licence).

It is mandatory to have :-

1) your car insured as I did, through Spanish Solutions using a Lloyds agent in Gibraltar and

2) Confirmation of road-worthiness. The UK will not accept a Spanish ITV, so I had an pre- ITV maintenance done with Invoice & IVA (excluding emission tests). The Insurance Co did not request one for a claim of €500.

To quote a Spanish Abogado Co, “you are allowed to use a non- Spanish registered car on ‘roads in Spain’ for up to 6 months”.

For the rest of the year I had mine parked privately, under cover & battery disconnected.

A non-resident is not allowed to own a Spanish registered car. Gestors may accept a ‘holiday address’ for their commercial reasons; the policeman in Maro applied the law ‘backwards’ to the Norwegian reader, his Lawyer possibly leading him into a ‘catch 22’ court case.

The non-residency Certificate allows you to own property, telephone connection and takes you out of being a tourist. Your formal address remains that of your tax Residency.

I can claim to have had six years research of Lawyers, Court Cases, Administrators and three bankruptcies in a large Urbanization, and can side with our reader on the quality of professionalism in ‘Digamarea’.

Response to Medical Appointments – Good News

Very useful information provided by Rod but sadly no use for those of us who don’t use ‘Apps’.

I can’t believe that I am the only person not to have a Smart Phone and has to rely on using the online Health Service appointment booking service rather than an App.  The new website for making Centro de Salud appointments is

Página de Inicio de InterSAS

As with the old site, this requires foreign residents to use their Tarjeta de Extranjero number rather than their DNI/NIE when filling in their personal details.

I found the new site a bit confusing the first time I used it as it is different from the old one but now find it very simple to use successfully:-

Click on ‘Introduciendo datos personales’ in the top right

Fill in details scrolling down to ‘Tarjeta de Extranjero’ in Documento Indentificativo

Click on ‘Conectar’

Click on ‘Citas en atencion primeria’ at the top of the left hand column then ‘Cita para medicina de familia’

Choose the appointment date and time you want – appointments can be made up to a week in advance.

Print off appointment.

Hope this is of help to the ‘non-techies’ amongst us.

Services Needed-Malaga to Salares ?

We are flying to Malaga shortly and I wondered whether any Digamites know of a cheaper way to get there (with a quick stop off at Lidl to get some supplies!) than the one we used last time.  This was a Spanish taxi from Canillas de Albaida costing 70 euro.   I can’t make head or tail of bus services as it looks like there’s a lot of changes and waiting around and this won’t take us all the way.  Is there a cheaper (English) taxi service that someone can recommend that will drop us at our door?  I’d be most grateful  to hear any recommendations etc. Could you please post on Digamextra.  Lynda

Medical Appointments – Good News

I don’t know if anyone else has struggled with the online appointment service http://www.citapreviamedico.org/… whenever I tried making an appointment at the Competa medical centre, it rejected my DNI/NIE number, so was never able to use it.

But now there’s an alternative for anyone with a iPhone or a Smartphone… go to Play Store (or the iPhone equivalent) and download the app ‘Salud Responde’. You’ll have to register using the number of your Tarjeta Sanitaria, year of birth and your DNI/NIE number, but after that it was plain sailing.

I haven’t explored all the options, but it seems to offer a comprehensive list of local clinics, hospitals, laboratories, etc.

Naythan DrLaptop logo 1 smallMicrosoft Sabotaging Pre Win 8.1 Windows Systems?

New bad update info at bottom.

The Windows 10 Paradox, by DoctorLaptop-Nerja
Will Windows (Win) 10 make your computer obsolete before it’s worn out? If you upgraded from version 7 or 8 it is possible. While your comp may have passed compatibility checks, and the Win 10 Update seems to have installed correctly and has been working flawlessly for a few months, the compatibility check was with an early version of Win 10. It is not a guaranty of compatibility with all future Win 10 incarnations. Win 10 is the last of the numbered Win series, Microsoft (MS) has declared. There will not be a new version of Win released, only upgrades and build releases. All improvements will be included in new Win 10 updates or builds (builds are like service packs, just jargon for a large bunch a bunch of updates and new feature installers grouped together).
Now following that logic, since Win 10 continues to add new features (and keep in mind that you cannot block Win 10 updating itself), eventually some of these updates will add features that your old hardware just is not designed to handle. The result will be your comp crashes when you reboot. At that point you will no longer be able to start that unit normally, only in Safe Mode. MS has effectively deemed your computer obsolete. So you will have to uninstall that last update and maybe MS will find a way to let you block that feature(but don’t bet on it, MS would rather you buy a new comp so they can force you into buying all new software from them) and at that point if you can’t block the offending feature you can’t use that comp on the internet again unless you re-install a pre-Win 10 version of Win or a non-Win Operating System.
The best you can hope for then as regards to Win 10 on units that were originally Win 7/8 is to extend the lifespan as much as possible. The main thing you can do in this regard, short of replacing your processor, which is prohibitively expensive, is to have your BIOS updated (this requires “flashing” the BIOS) to the newest possible version before doing the upgrade from Win 7 or 8 to Win 10. Be aware flashing your BIOS is a risky process, if it fails, which happens in a small but significant percent of cases, the computer becomes unstartable and needs to be serviced by the manufacturer to replace the damaged BIOS ,as it requires special equipment to do. As everyone should know by now, before doing an upgrade to Win 10 you must fully update your computer with all available Windows Updates and all Driver Updates from your computer manufacturer. These manufacturer driver updates must include the BIOS update if available, although the BIOS update is often overlooked. But the BIOS is a kind of driver, a driver for your processor, and often referred to as “firmware” rather than a driver, thus the confusion. So updating the BIOS before upgrading to Win 10 is often overlooked, and the upgrade may initially seem to have been successful. But the problem is, and I am now seeing cases of this, that after a few months of using the upgraded Win 10 without any problems, suddenly Win 10 crashes and will not restart, or allow a Refresh or Rollback! Why? Some newly installed feature requires support from your hardware or BIOS that you don’t have. The only fix seems to be a fresh install of an older version of Win that was working without problems. You can re-install an earlier version of Win 10 but that only works till that update that caused the problem in the first place is attempted again, and over which you have no control if using the comp on the internet. You’d be better served to go back to Win 8.1 or 7.

Now lets take this to the next logical step. MS has insider knowledge and major influence over the computer parts and chips makers. Thus they can now plan ahead when to introduce new features that will will only work with newly available hardware or Bios versions. And they will use this info to set up lifecycles for all new computers, using planned obsolescence to shorten the lifespan of all new computers to a limit they determine is to their shareholders best interests. This is a whole new level of control MS now has over your computer that didn’t exist before Win 10, when you still had control of new updates and features and whether or not you chose to install them. Now you know why they are giving Win 10 away for free and pushing the upgrade so hard. They can now force users to only get software from MS approved sources and MS and basically determine when you will need to replace your computer.

A New Win 7 Update To Avoid

Earlier this year MS warned users that Win 7 has serious problems. I dismissed it’s claims as a desperate attempt to shift Win 7 users to Win 10 (and I still do), but now MS has warned of a new serious Win 7 problem that is very real – even though it makes no sense whatsoever…As InfoWorld’s Win expert Woody Leonhard notes “I’m now seeing problems reported from all over the globe about Win 7 machines that suddenly won’t boot”. The cause? MS has made a seemingly small yet completely bizarre tweak to Win Update on Win 7 and confirmed it is crippling many users’ PCs. The tweak? It switched the status of Win 7 update KB3133977 from ‘Optional’ to ‘Recommended’. The bizarre part? Despite acknowledging the problems, MS knew they would occur in advance and it has no plans to do anything about it. Win 7 users need to read this article to determine if they are at risk.

Response- Jan

I can confirm what Dr Laptop is warning us about.  I had this problem last week my computer failed to start for 7 consecutive days and I had to run start up repair. I ‘asked Google’ about the issue and ultimately resolved it by uninstalling all my recent updates, then blocking automatic updates.  It has worked fine since.

No answer, the shop is closed etc.

Anyone had any experience with this company INTERVISION or Robert Lockie and Tooway satellite broadband here in Spain?

What’s NOT on

Due To Illness, All Canine Training this week-end is cancelled

Hi everyone, as you may possibly already know, Wendy has been quite ill this past week or so, starting with a full day spent in A&E on Monday last.

She is now feeling a little better, thankfully, but far from OK.

Accordingly, I am sad to inform everyone that we have decided to completely cancel all dog training this week-end, to give her a little more time to recover and recuperate fully.

Illness combined with a terrible weather forecast for both Velez Malaga & Nerja, cancelling for this week-end seems to be the wisest choice.
We are both very sorry to have to let you all down as we know you love training, as do your dogs, but in view of the fact that Wendy has been actively helping clients train their dogs in Spain for over thirteen years, this is the very first time that we have ever had to completely cancel due to illness.

Wendy is still confined to bed but seems to be a little brighter & better with each passing day although she is still not completely ‘out of the woods’ so to speak.

I feel confident that a complete rest for the next few days will be just what her body requires to heal itself.

We will be available by email or telephone to help any clients in any way we can, as always, please still feel free to contact us if you need our help.

I sincerely hope to come back to you with better news early next week when Wendy should hopefully be ‘fighting fit’ and firing on all four cylinders once again,

Thank you all for your well wishes which have all been passed on to her.

I too am missing my best friend and soul mate, so I know exactly how some of you may feel.

Best regards,

Allen   xxx

End of the Non-Resident Traffic Story

As there has been some interest in our plight, I feel I must inform the readers of Digamextra of the end of the story.
I was stopped by our  ‘guardians’ at the round-a-bout at Maro, driving my Spanish registered car with a Norwegian licence. Despite the fact that I insisted 10 times that I lived in Norway and had a holiday home here, this gentleman meant that I was a resident and therefore should have a Spanish licence. I told him that I had had a holiday home in Nerja for 15 years. This may have been his problem, but there was no room for argument.
I applied for a Non Resident Certificate form at Torre Del Mar, and after a week of driving back and forwards was able to collect it. It cost 7 Euro and is valid for only three months.
I took the form to my lawyer who told me it should not be necessary to have this form in the car, and that the fine of 200 Euros (100 if paid within 15 days) was wrong. He could write a letter for me at a cost of 150 Euros and all would be well. I have declined his offer and will pay the 100 Euro fine, although it rancours, and all is out of the world.
The moral of the story is “Stick in at you Spanish lessons”, there is little empathy in any police force, and certainly not in this one.
Happy motoring everybody.

Rental law and 11 May 2016

Regarding the rental law related to the date of 11 May 2016, I would like to
inform you about the following:
The 11th May is not a deadline. What will happen from the 11th May is that
the 3-month-period starts in which people can voluntarily declare that they
rent out their properties for periods less than 2 months.
So basically if you do rentals longer than 2 months, you would not need to
do anything. However, if you rent out shorter periods than 2 months you will
have to declare. Please contact me for help with the declaration:

Responses –Registering  Vehicle Here

David’s query – they had to contact Torre Police – i.e. stand in a long queue and remember to go early.  One point though my friends were driving a Spanish car owned by them not a foreign vehicle.

 

Recommendation – Toldo

We have just bought one from Leroy Merlin and had the local estate agent fit it.
It is called Toldos and various widths and lengths are available.
Hope this helps.

Recommendation- Removals

We would like to recommend the services of Tony Roam ,who at a very reasonable price, has succeeded in moving all our worldly possessions from London to Torrox. He collected them, stored them for a month and then delivered them all in one piece to our now permanent residence in Torrox Pueblo.

David and Anne.

AND

Recommendation- for Tony Roam

I would like to give a bouquet and round of applause to Tony Roam. I have now had two deliveries with Tony from the UK and could not be happier! He makes a run from Wales to the Axarquia monthly, on about the same date at the end of the month. You can send your packages to his address in Wales and he then brings everything himself here to Spain. He has made my life so much easier! I am now able to order from companies that do not ship to Spain, or charge an arm and a leg to do so. My goods always show up in tip-top shapeand for an excellent price. Can not suggest highly enough.

Non Resident’s Form ?

Hello recently on Digamextra somebody posted a story about their Norwegian  friend receiving a fine for driving without a Spanish licence in a non Spanish registered car. Despite actually protesting non resident status.
The writer mentioned  a form he was going to apply for to prove non resident status to traffic police. Does anyone have any information about this form and where you can obtain it from.
I would assume lots of Non residents could find themselves in this position, so any replies would be helpful.
Replies to Digamextra please
Thank you

David

Send an email to janekirkspain @ gmail (dot) com

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
