Recommendations

To Digamextra- another job well done! I placed a gas space heater for sale on Digamextra last week. To my surprise the next morning before I was even out of bed I had 4 requests for the unit. It was sold before 9:00 AM. Pretty incredible service. Wish I had more things to sell! Keep it up! David 692 288 657 Sayalonga
email: info AT Vetiverspain DOT com.

Information: Hello Digamites, I wonder if any one out there knows someone who has relocated to Greece (Rhodes) from Spain. Any info would be good as finding a removal company that does not charge extortionate prices would be welcomed and the best way to relocate. Steve, Torrox Costa.

Pets

A New Home for Bertie: “I’m sooo bored with my current staff”.
I rescued Bertie in 2011 from the clutches of local kids who were treating him badly. They consider kittens fair game as entertainment round here. He is still very kittenish at heart and loves games (has a great poker face!).
He is up to date with all his vaccinations, has his passport and is chipped.
I am moving back to a flat in the UK where, unfortunately, the keeping of pets is not permitted.
Can anyone out there offer Bertie a safe home? I would be most grateful.
If you can help, please let me know. Roger, Velez Malaga. Ring 655236303 or

Wanted: Looking for Accommodation in Fuengirola. I wonder if anyone could help please. I have a friend in the UK whose 19 year old daughter has been offered a job in Fuengirola, near to the port. She needs a small one bed apartment, maybe something attached to a villa but independent, it would be suitable close to the port, she’s a quiet girl, not a party goer, prefers her home comforts. I just wondered if anyone knew of anything, she will be working for her cousin who would normally put her up but they have 2 small children and only a small house, she is very family orientated & will be spending a lot of time with them. Any help would be much appreciated.

Recommendations

Plumber: Remembering a recommendation on Digamextra some ten days ago, and urgently needing a plumber, we called Rob Peel around lunchtime. At 5.30pm he arrived, completed an excellent job quickly and efficiently which totally solved our problem. His charge was very reasonable, his manner friendly and informative, in fact it was pleasure to meet him. Thanks Rob!! If anyone needs an efficient, knowledgable plumber, ring Rob on 642 571 171.

WHAT!?! Microsoft browser warns users! Don’t trust Daily Mail website? Who are they to Judge? – DoctorLaptop’s Computer News
NewsGuard Is Coming! Microsoft is rolling out a news censoring feature named NewsGuard.
Edge browser users on Android and Apple devices can already just click one button to enable it’s news censor NewsGuard, a “green-red”  rating signal if a website is trying to get it right or instead has a hidden agenda or knowingly publishes falsehoods or propaganda” – as determined by Who!?! It will eventually show up in other devices and web browsers like Chrome, Firefox and Edge. NewsGuard has green-lighted CNN, The Guardian, Buzzfeed and NY Times; it has red-lighted the Daily Mail, Russia Today and Drudge Report.
This week Microsoft began installing it automatically on all mobile editions of its Edge browser in the first stage of what it’s creators hope will be a widespread roll-out to all computers and devices. Edge browser users should receive a pop-up explaining the new service. They can choose to opt-in on the mobile browser itself.
Understandably, independent news agencies and internet freedom watchdogs are very concerned about how, and by whom, the trustworthiness rating will be determined.

Also, look for website blocking lists to be installed in the hardware of new comps and mobile devices. Computer manufacturers will use lists of  “undesirable” web addresses that will be blocked no matter what system you are running. IPTV portals and streaming sites are sure to be targeted; that’s exactly what happened to some MAG IPTV boxes a few months ago.  One system update and all your favs are blocked. Another dirty trick Microsoft is doing is requiring computer manufacturers to use new processors that prevent previous versions of Windows from being compatible. No good old Win 7, and maybe no Linux, on that Windows 10 laptop you buy next year. Of course this will also  require many people and businesses to buy new Win 10 versions of all their favorite old programs

Recommendations

Recommendations wanted for Spanish teacher in the Velez-Malaga/Torre Del Mar: I am looking for a Spanish teacher in the Velez-Malaga/Torre Del Mar area. Someone that I can go to once or twice a week. I want to learn general Spanish, not take exams, I just want to be a bit better than I am. Do any readers have any recommendations? Please contact Mark at: markinspain1 AT gmail DOT com (Algarrobo)

 

Recommendation: Reliable plumber. I would like to echo the recommendations of at least two Digamextra subscribers who, like me, have had a very positive experience by employing Rob Reed of Velez Malaga for our plumbing issues.
Rob is an experienced plumber who definitely knows his trade. He resolved the problem we had with a gas boiler and shower – he was quick, pleasant, and did the job at a very fair price. We would have no hesitation in recommending Rob. He can be contacted on 642 571 171 or 0044 74637 66536
Tony in Torrox Park, oddjobtony AT gmail DOT com

Email: tedyliz AT hotmail DOT com.

 

Cinesur el Engenio Ride-share: Hi, is there anyone in Torrox pueblo who attends the Ballet screenings at el Engenio occasionally, or, who are planning on seeing Don Quixote in February, who would be willing to give someone in the village a lift home and drop one person in El Morche on the way? Share petrol cost. Or, someone who would like to share the cost of a cab home? Thanks. Valerie. El Morche.
