DoctorLaptop’s Computer Repairs & Services:
I repair what others can only replace. All makes. Most jobs completed overnight.
What’s coming in the next big Windows 10 Update v1809 in Oct?
There are some significant, overdue changes such as an updated Clipboard with new Clip & Paste functions, and fairly silly updates like support for 157 new emojis. And of course they have reshuffled the Settings. What I found especially disturbing is the addition of these 2 terms in Settings: Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Here is an example of AI at work. We already have predictive spelling, type 2 or 3 letters and the word pops up before you can finish typing. Now your comp will guess the next word before you finish typing the current word. I certainly don’t need Google to put their spin on what my next word should be. And I don’t need Machine Learning (since it surely knows better than me) altering settings I specifically set in a certain fashion.

Clinica Rincon/Sauld 101: In response to the question regarding Clinica Rincon changing hands we can confirm this is the case. We have been members of Salud 101 ( The Health Scheme which offers medical assistance at discounted rates) for a few years. We used to have the membership fee taken by direct debit every March. This year we have still been given discounted rates but the membership fee was not taken until September. Hope this is of help. jackiecrosby2009 @ hotmail.com Nerja

Salud 101 Update, Clinica Rincon: From our own experiences, I can thoroughly recommend membership of “Simple Care” to run alongsidethe Spanish National Health system as a top up. We have been members for several years now and the discount applied at the many clinics/dentists/physios etc. etc. is very good. Clinica Rincon is one of the associated clinics within the scheme. Our joint membership is 99 €uros per. annum. Renewal is always easy. Simple Care is based in Torrox. Website is http://www.getsimplecare.es/ The contact we deal with in Torrox is Juan Bazan on 625 539 429. Hope this info. is useful to you.

Dog & Cat Grooming: The Grooming Table salon is a modern, spacious, open plan and air conditioned salon, providing maximum comfort for both you and your pet. No cat or dog is ever left alone in our salon and they are continually accompanied from the time they enter the salon until they leave. We naturally treat every pet as if they were our own and we are pleased to say customers regularly comment on how calm their pets are during their grooming session. We provide first class, professional dog grooming, cat grooming, as well as pet grooming advice.
The Grooming Table is the first, Axarquia based, owner and dog grooming parlour of its kind – based around the idea that pet owners can, if they so wish, stay with and observe their dog or cat being Professionally Groomed, or alternatively, drop your pet off and do some shopping or enjoy lunch and collect him in an hour or so later.
Wendy is UK professionally qualified and holds over twenty six feline and canine breed grooming diplomas and certifications.
See poster (click to enlarge) for contact and appointment details.

Blood test recommendation wanted: Looking for recommendation for clinic to undertake a blood test. Preferably Velez-Malaga area.
Many thanks in advance. Paul, Valez, paul@hageman.co.uk

Salud 101 Update, Clinica Rincon has changed hands: We are members of Clinica Rincon’s very useful Salud101 scheme which gives discounts on private medical treatment. One of its advantages is it does not refuse pre-existing conditions. We just found out that Clinica Rincon has changed hands and the scheme is now closed to new members. I have tried to get more information but the receptionists I talked to didn’t seem to know much. They think that existing memberships will continue and can be renewed, at least for now. Does anyone have more information, or can anyone recommend a similar scheme suitable for ‘topping up’ health service cover?

To my person: My name is Kiki Trenew. I am practising Yoga since more than 16 years – nearly every day – and it changed my life. To understand Yoga you have to practise regular. With increasing practise your power, confindence & well-being will grow slowly. Your view will go to the inside and this will make a change in your life. Everybody can practise my Yoga whatever age or physical condition. The adaption of the Yoga postures to every single student is very important for me as we all have different bodies. I mix Ayur 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.
Wishing you all a wonderful week, light & love Kiki

TuneIn Prob fixed: Although I have answered each person who suggested solutions for my problem with TuneIn radio, I would like to say how wonderful DigameXtra is, thanks to Naythan. Everything working well again. Mary. marjofran@gmail.com Puente Don Manuel

Escape Room Torrenigma: If you like puzzles and riddles, this could be for you. Torre del Mar now has an Escape Room venue in Calle Isidoro Rivas. Forget virtual reality, this is the real thing with secret compartments and cryptic messages hidden in some very ingenious places. My wife and I went with our grand daughter and her boyfriend, albeit Initially a bit reluctantly. We were welcomed and given a twenty minute briefing by Juan who speaks excellent English. Then into the Room. It is not easy and we failed, apparently by five minutes, to escape within the allotted hour. Great fun, thoroughly recommended. Colin, Torre, colespania@gmail.com

Carthaginians and Romans Festival, Cartagena, Murcia (September 10th – 21st). Re-enactments and ancient military ceremonies: More than four thousand Cartagena people participate in these Festivals that began in 1990 to relive the events of the Second Punic War of more than 2,200 years ago. During the Feast days, all the heroic events that occurred in the period that began around the year 227 are revived, with the foundation of Qart Hadasht by Asdrúbal Janto El Hermoso and ending in the year 209 BC with the conquest of the city by the Roman legions, creating a magical environment. The program includes different daily theatrical performances that allow visitors to relive history in the majestic scenes of the city. During the Fiestas, visitors and locals travel through the city participating in the various recreational activities organized by the Carthaginians and the Romans, and accompany the Carthaginian troops and the Roman legions who disembark in the port and parade to the Carthagonova stadium, and is the site chosen by visitors to continue the party every night, visiting the craft market and enjoying the wide variety of specialties of the Cartagena cuisine.  In the camp, the festeros offer the public more than one hundred free activities among which we can highlight the Aspar Tests with playful activities for children offered by the Carthaginian Council and the Feriae Latino with representations and typical Roman meals offered by the Roman Senate. Full schedule (Spanish website): http://cartaginesesyromanos.es/

Tornadoes out to sea ahead of forecast storms: A bit northeast of us. Tornadoes out to sea across the Comunidad Valenciana yesterday (Friday) evening sparked alarm and curiosity among bathers on beaches in Alboraia (Valencia province), and Jávea and Guardamar del Segura at the far north and south of the province of Alicante. Normally a prelude to the so-called gota fría, when warm and cold air collide and produce torrential rain, flash floods and high winds for several days on the Mediterranean, tornadoes out to sea are surprisingly common.

Have you got German Win XP computer? Help needed – does anyone out there still have a German WinXP running on their computer? I changed some of the folder names to English on mine and it does not run properly – I have forgotten the originals. o, if you have yours still running perhaps a reminder for me over phone or email would be very helpful.

Pool Covers: Some time ago I advertised a pool roller and offered to give info on where to get covers. The roller didn’t sell but I have had lots of people asking about the supplier and they have all come back to me saying they agree that they are good value. So I thought I would post this for everyone! The supplier is www.outlet-piscinas.com You have a choice of buying uncut or fully shaped and edged. You can size and buy online but if your shape isn’t shown contact the sales team, they are very helpful. We have had ours a season now and are very pleased indeed.

Pets

Hello. My name is Bold and I am a very friendly sharpei cross pup. I was rescued by Tail when I was just over a week old with my 8 other siblings. WE were abandoned in the campo. I am now 6 months old and a great age to be adopted. I weigh 13kg and am about 40cm in height and super healthy. I am very beautiful as you can see, I am confident, which is why I am called Bold, and I walk well on a harness. If you would like to come and visit me please contact Gill (Torrox) 633405560 or visit our web site for information about adoption www.tailtorrox.es If any of your friends or family are considering getting a dog or pup, please check out our refuge first. All I want is a loving home. Thank you for reading my story.
