EDITORIAL
AGENDA - DIARY
Hello readers, once again it’s time to put pen to paper and introduce this month’s issue of The Resident. I am happy to say that we are now well and truly entering the Fiesta and Feria season with numerous events on the programme for the coming weeks.It’s hard to grasp, with the memories of the appalling winter still relatively fresh in our minds, that next week is offi cially midsummer! Which among other things means that on the 23rd June Noche de San Juan, the midsummer celebration, will be taking place on many of the Coast’s beaches. For most people this heralds the true start of the summer so make sure you note it in your diary.Sabinillas plays host to Manilva’s annual International Festival which this year will be held over three days from the 2nd to 4th July and promises to be a great weekend of entertainment, food and celebration of the municipality’s cultural diversity.Estepona celebrates its Summer Feria from the 6th to the 11th July closely followed by another major festival in the shape of Virgen del Carmen, on the 16th July, when the fi shermen of the region pay homage to their patron saint. You can fi nd more details of these events and more in this month’s issue, as well as on our website www.theresident.esOn a serious note, now that the summer is here, there are just a few things to be careful. Please watch your kids around swimming pools. Every year we suffer the tragedy of fatal pool accidents, often through a moment’s lack of supervision, so make sure someone is keeping an eye on them.The other big problem of the summer is fi re, which this year has been made all the more dangerous by the huge amount of ‘fuel’ which has sprung up as a result of the wet winter. Apart from the obvious precautions such as not lighting fi res or barbecues in the campo, or carelessly discarding cigarette ends, be careful when pulling your car off the road into long grass or dry vegetation as hot exhaust or brakes have been the cause of many a fi re.Sorry if I sound a bit preachy, but with a little bit of common sense, we can all enjoy the coming summer months with peace of mind.Until next month...

¡Hola, lectores!, una vez más es la hora de coger papel y lápiz y presentar la edición de este mes de The Resident. Estoy contento de decir que ahora nos encontramos bien y preparados para la temporada de Fiestas y Ferias con numerosos eventos en las próximas semanas.Es duro de entender, con los recuerdos aún frescos en nuestra mente del invierno horroroso que hemos tenido, que la próxima semana entra ofi cialmente el verano. Entre otras cosas signifi ca que el día 23 de Junio, Noche de San Juan, habrá celebraciones en la mayoría de las playas de la Costa. Para la mayoría de las personas este día es realmente el comienzo del verano, así pues, asegúrese de anotarlo en su diario.Este año el Festival Internacional de Manilva se celebra durante tres días en Sabinillas, los días 2,3 y 4 de Julio y promete un fantástico fi n de semana de eventos, comida y diversidad cultural del municipio.Estepona celebra su Feria de verano desde los días 6 al 11 de Julio seguido de la verbena de la Virgen del Carmen, el día 16 de Julio, cuando los pescadores de la región homenajean a su Santa Patrona.Pueden encontrar más detallles de estos eventos y más información en la edición de este mes o en nuestra página web www.theresident.esCon una nota de seriedad, ahora que el verano ya está aquí, diré unos cuantos detalles a tener en cuenta. Por favor vigilen a sus niños cuando estén en las piscinas. Todos los años sufrimos tragedias de accidentes mortales, normalmente por un despiste, así que asegúrese de echarles un vistazo en todo momento.El otro gran problema del verano es el fuego, el cual este año hay mucho más riesgo por el agua que ha caído durante el invierno. Aparte de las precauciones normales de no encender barbacoas en el campo, no arrojar colillas, tener cuidado al salir de la carretera con el coche y meterse en zonas de vegetación seca , ya que los tubos de escapes calientes o frenos pueden ser la causa de muchos fuegos.Perdonen si parezco que estoy dado un sermón, pero con un poco de sentido común, todos podremos disfrutar de los meses de verano en paz.Hasta el próximo mes...

El Ayuntamiento de Casares ha aprobado por unanimidad en la sesión plenaria de esta mañana iniciar el procedimiento para la recepción de la urbanización de Marina Casares, una medida de supondrá un gran benefi cio para los vecinos de la zona explicó la alcaldesa, Antonia Morera, que dejarán de pagar gran parte de los servicios públicos.En relación a esta recepción, la alcaldesa se refi rió a que esta urbanización, la más antigua de Casares, lleva más de 22 años construida y cuenta con unas 1.200 viviendas en las que habitan de forma permanente más de 500 vecinos, por lo que el Ayuntamiento de Casares la considera un núcleo urbano consolidado.La recepción de la misma signifi cará por lo pronto que el Ayuntamiento de Casares se haga cargo de la limpieza y mantenimiento de los viales, alumbrado público, mantenimiento de zonas verdes construidas, y del servicio de abastecimiento de agua del que se ocupará Acosol que tiene la encomienda de gestión de este suministro en el término municipal.Además el Ayuntamiento tiene previsto realizar nuevas infraestructuras en
la zona como es la instalación de contenedores soterrados incluida en los presupuestos municipales de este año. Y va a presentar en breve un plan de actuaciones y mejoras de las infraestructuras para los próximos años.
Casares Town Council unanimously voted in a recent plenary session of the council to begin the procedure for adoption of the urbanisation of Marina Casares, a move that will greatly benefi t the residents of this development said the mayoress, Antonia Morera.
The Mayoress pointed out that the urbanisation, at 22 years old was Casares’ oldest, and comprised some 1,200 homes and around 500 permanent residents, and has led to the Casares Town Council considering it an urban nucleus.The adoption will mean that the Ayuntamiento will take responsibility for cleaning, road maintenance, street lighting, maintenance of the urbanisation’s green areas as well as the water service which will fall to Acosol who are responsible for the provision of water utilities in the municipalityIn addition the Town Hall is planning new infrastructure projects for the area, such as the installation of underground containers, which will be included in this year’s municipal budgets. A plan of action will soon be presented outlining infrastructure upgrades over the coming years.

Se celebra todos los años en la noche del 23 de Junio hasta la madrugada del día 24 (Día de San Juan).Hay diferentes maneras de celebrar la noche de San Juan, en la mayoría se celebra con una hoguera. En muchos municipios la celebración central es la “Quema de los bigotes de San Juan”, donde fi guras de cartón piedra, muchas de naturaleza satírica, son paseadas por la ciudad antes de su quema en la playa.En Sabinillas, un gran escenario es construido en la playa unos días antes de su celebración. Esta obra de arte está basada en un tema diferente cada año, y es casi un “crimen” cuando a medianoche se prende fuego. Es costumbre también mojarse en el mar para dejar atrás la mala suerte.Otra tradición es para los hombres jóvenes de la ciudad es saltar y pasar cerca de las llamas, una vez que el fuego está un poco más bajo.En la Noche, normalmente, hay fuegos artifi ciales, música en vivo y baile hasta altas horas de la madrugada.Sabinillas, no es la única en celebrar esta Fiesta, Estepona celebra un
This is held each year on the evening of the 23rd of June and goes on into the early hours of the 24th (Dia de San Juan).It’s the old pagan midsummer celebration which has been ‘Christianifi ed’ by tacking it on to a convenient Saint’s day (if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em sort of thing).There are a number of traditional ways of celebrating Saint John’s Night most of which involve a good bonfi re. In many municipalities the central celebration is
the ‘Quema de los bigotes de San Juan’ - literally ‘burning of the moustaches’ - where large papier mache fi gures, many of a satirical nature, are paraded through the town before being burnt on the beach. In Sabinillas a huge tableau is constructed on the beach a few days before the event. This work of art is based on a different theme every year, and it is almost a crime when, around midnight, the whole thing is set alight. It is also customary at this time to walk into the sea to wash away any bad luck.Another tradition is for the young men of the town to jump or dive over the bonfi res once they have died down a bit, the higher the fl ames, the greater the challenge. The night is usually marked by fi rework displays, live music and dancing until the early hours of the morning.Sabinillas is by no means the only town hosting San Juan celebrations, Estepona holds a competition for the best ‘bigotes’, and Casares enjoys live music, bonfi res and sardines on the beach at Marina de Casares, with other towns worth a visit are San Roque, Taraguilla and Torreguadiaro who all stage celebrations of one sort or another.For a full programme of events in your town visit www.theresident.es

The British Consulate in Malaga held a Spring Garden Party in Fuengirola to help raise money for the Age Concern España Casework Service.The event, which was attended by British Ambassador, Giles Paxman, raised €20,000 which will be used to train the volunteer caseworkers in Spain. Age Concern España offers support to over 15,000 English speakers across the country and has been working closely with the British Consular network in Spain for the last few years.“This sort of integration is really valued by our consular teams,” commented Giles Paxman, “it’s important that the local Spanish community understand what we do and recognise areas in which we can help the British population in Spain in a joined-up way.”The Garden Party was held at Sohail Castle in Fuengirola, and was attended by members of the British and Spanish community, including Rowetta of The X Factor and Christian Fa, winner of the
Wow Factor 2009.Sarah Rogers, Country Casework Manager for the British Consulate/Age Concern España Partnership Project said that “these funds can help us train our volunteer caseworkers across Spain and enable us to help those most in need in the community”. She stated that “without the generous donations from our sponsors, raffl e prize donors and attendees, the Garden Party would not have been the success it was”. She wanted to say a special thank you to the volunteer caseworkers who helped out on the day.

Alex has been carp fi shing for over 20 years, and after qualifying with the PAA (Professional Anglers Association) worked as a professional fi shing guide in France and Morocco. After fi ve years of involvement in the industry in the UK, a sixth place fi nish in the British Carp Angling Championships, and the privilege of fi shing for Team England at the World Carp Classic, the big carp rumours in Spain caught his eye. An exploratory trip to the rugged and wild Extremadura region proved the grapevine to be correct, and a move was soon on the cards. Alex quotes, ‘’Carp fi shing is really taking off in Spain, and even in the two years I have been over here, I have noticed more and more anglers taking the plunge from their usual spinning trips for bass and pike, and having a go for the hard fi ghting carp, which can be found in lakes and river systems all over the country’’. Now living in the area, Alex is working closely with Medsports, to help promote carp fi shing in Andalucia, We will be holding Coffee mornings and Talks and will
be doing demonstrations to show people how to get the best out of the whole range of Mainline products, as well as answering any questions you may have on carp fi shing in general. So if you Fancy a coffee and to talk Fishing, come in and see us next Saturday 26 June. Tight Lines.

CEl espectáculo de fl amenco-teatro “Ana Fargas y las voces de Penélope” llega a EsteponaEl Ayuntamiento de Estepona informa que el día 25 de junio llegará al Palacio de Exposiciones y Congresos el espectáculo de fl amenco y teatro de la artista local, “Ana Fargas y las voces de Penélope”, en el que se muestra la lucha por la igualdad de la mujer.La directora artística de obra y autora de las letras fl amencas es la propia Ana Fargas, quien estará acompañada en el escenario por otros de los artistas esteponeros más representativos del fl amenco, como es el guitarrista Paco Javier Jimeno, director musical del espectáculo, que ha compuesto la música original para esta ocasión, y el percusionista Chico Fargas, además de otros músicos de cuerda de primer nivel y un grupo de baile, y tendrá como director escénico a Luque, director del Grupo Municipal de Teatro de la delegación de Cultura.La obra está dividida en cuatro tiempos; a través de los diferentes palos del fl amenco se van representando los
distintos estados de ánimo por los que transcurre la trama de la obra.Penélope es un mito de la Grecia antigua que intenta mantener vivo el amor atado a un drama, donde se refl eja la difi cultad y el padecimiento de la mujer para afi rmar su
personalidad y la inmensa lucha por la libertad. Mientras Ulises, rey de Ítaca, pasa 20 años en la guerra, de donde vuelve como un héroe, ella es víctima, en esa larga espera, de habladurías y malidicencias, mientras debe salvaguardar el reinado.

Los vinos españoles se etiquetan de acuerdo con el tiempo que el vino ha estado envejeciendo. Así, el vino de menos de dos años suele llamarse vino joven o sin crianza. El año de la cosecha también puede fi gurar en la etiqueta, para lo cual es necesario que al menos el 85% del vino se haya producido en la cosecha de ese año. Los tres términos más comunes en la etiquetas de vinos españoles son:* Crianza: los vinos tintos deben tener al menos dos años, de los cuales seis
meses en barrica. Los blancos y los rosados deben tener un año con seis meses en barrica.* Reserva: para vinos de tres años con un año en barrica. Los blancos y los rosados, dos años, con un seis meses en barrica.* Gran reserva: para vinos con un mínimo de cinco (tintos) o cuatro (blancos y rosados) años, con 18 meses en barrica en el caso de los tintos o seis en el caso de los blancos y los rosados.
Spanish wines are often labelled according to the amount of ageing the wine has received. When the label says vino joven (“young wine”) or sin crianza, the wines will have undergone very little, if any, wood ageing. Depending on the producer, some of these wines will be meant to be consumed very young - often within a year of their release. Others will benefi t from some time ageing in the bottle. For the vintage year (vendimia or cosecha) to appear on the label, a minimum of 85% of the grapes must be from that year’s harvest. The three most common ageing designations on Spanish wine labels are
Crianza, Reserva and Gran Reserva.* Crianza red wines are aged for 2 years with at least 6 months in oak. Crianza whites and rosés must be aged for at least 1 year with at least 6 months in oak.* Reserva red wines are aged for at least 3 years with at least 1 year in oak. Reserva whites and rosés must be aged for at least 2 years with at least 6 months in oak.* Gran Reserva wines typically appear in above average vintages with the red wines requiring at least 5 years ageing, 18 months of which in oak. Gran Reserva whites and rosés must be aged for at least 4 years with at least 6 months in oak.

My name is Jose M Rubio. I have a Mathematics degree and offi cial teaching qualifi cations. For the last 6 years I have been handling the accounts for many autonomos and SL companies in the Sabinillas area. I also have ample experience in teaching complicated subjects to different people such as Statistics, IT, Finance, Accountancy, etc. I am convinced that you will fi nd this seminar practical, interesting and easy to follow because I have incorporated long tested teaching methods: visual aids, slides, practical exercises to ensure that you will take in all the information. If you have any queries please include it in your pre-registration form at www.how2.es.
Is it for me? What will I learn?If you are a self-employed person with a small business and no employees your tax obligations are not too diffi cult to handle. This is not to say that it is very easy as you need to have some admin skills and training, however, nobody will look after your tax responsibilities better than you! In this seminar you will learn to be self-suffi cient with regard to tax obligations. You will learn what to do and where to go to register/unregister yourself as autonomo. You will be able to submit your IVA and Personal Tax Returns every quarter and also the annual returns. (There are quite a few!). You will also learn how to handle the most common problems that the self-employed have with the Tax and Social Security Authorities.
How much Spanish do I need to speak?The seminar will be wholly presented in
English. A glossary of the most relevant words that you will fi nd while fi lling in your tax forms will be provided.However you have to take into account that, if you want to be self-suffi cient, sooner or later you will have to deal personally with someone in the Tax Agency or Social Security offi ces. In my years of experience I have seen many going there and managing pretty well with a little Spanish. But, of course, it depends on who you fi nd there and the complexity of your problem.
What materials Am I going to receive?To ensure that you absorb all the information you will fi nd it helpful to have in front of you a guide with all the relevant points to be remembered. This will include a copy of every tax form for you to familiarize with them.You will be provided fi les with all the forms in PDF format and other utilities such as excel work sheets, tax calendar, etc.Pen, markers and so on. (You will only have to bring your glasses if you need them!).You will be given a password to be able to download extra information from the website.
Can I send somebody else in my place to attend the seminar?Yes. Actually that is a good idea if you feel you are too busy to attend it yourself. Some self-employed people are assisted by their spouse or other member of the family with the paperwork. You can have them trained and then delegate this job to them.The seminars are presented in a simple, easy to understand fashion.For more information why not join us at our ‘Open Day’ at the H10 Estepona Palace Hotel on 29th June from 5 - 8 pm, where all those attending will receive a free gift!

Many people put off thinking about their pension, perhaps because retirement seems a long way off, or maybe because it just seems too complicated to understand. However, planning for your future is important and thinking about your pension now may help ensure you enjoy your retirement later on.If you would like to know how much UK pension you are likely to receive based on the years you have already worked, you can apply for a pension forecast from HMRC. Based on this, you may also wish to consider paying voluntary contributions to top up your pension entitlement. If you are currently living and/or working in Spain, but wish to voluntarily contribute to the UK, you can pay for any of the last 6 years where you have not contributed enough previously. In addition, if you reach state pension age between April 2008 and April 2015 you are entitled to pay for any 6 years back to 1975, providing you already have 20 full qualifying years.Remember however, if you reach pension age after 6th April 2010, you now only need 30 years of contributions to qualify for a full UK State Pension.
If you are interested in paying UK voluntary contributions or wish to fi nd out more, call HMRC on 0044 191 203 7010 or see www.hmrc.gov.uk.
Those of you in receipt of a UK State Pension should have received a letter earlier this year informing you of the value of your weekly rate as from April 2010.These letters are sent out every year, but how many of you keep the paperwork regarding your pension?the PBHT can provide a certifi cate to help you prove your State Pension income when applying for help through social services. In order to do so however, they need to see recent correspondence regarding your pension. To ensure the process is as quick and smooth as possible, they will ask to see your pension increase letter, so you might just fi nd it worth hanging on to.

RBL would like to remind everyone about the Age Concern Australian Christmas Lunch on June 25th at 1330 at Armstrong’s Restaurant in Sabinillas, instead of the usual RBL evening event, which RBL agreed to support. If you can possibly attend, your Committee would all be most grateful, as funds are desperately needed for supporting the elderly in Estepona and this should be a fun event at the same time. Call Mick Ellis on 952 792634 who has the tickets and the menu for you to choose from, so please get in touch with him as soon as possible and book your place.There is entertainment after the meal, Father Christmas might call in whilst on holiday in the area and there could even be a few carols sung! There is also a short pantomime!
The Royal British LegionAnother reminder concerns the Coffee morning which will be held at the Padre Manual Cultural Centre Cafeteria in Estepona on July 23rd at 11.00 am when The Foreign Residents’ Association (AREME) are holding a Table Top Sale. The tables will cost 5 Euros each, but any income made by the table holder is theirs to keep so get out all those unwanted items, book your table, and try to sell them off at this event. There is parking behind the Centre and on the approach road to it for those not familiar with the area. Because many people are away for the summer, during July there will only be three Friday evening dinners and in August there will only be informal Friday evening dinners each week at 19.30 hours at Pekin Pato in Estepona Port, for those wishing to meet up with friends.Friday June 18 Casador 2 at 7.30 for 8.00Friday June 25 - Australian Christmas for Age Concern 1.30 at Armstrong’s Restaurant, SabinillasFriday July 2 - Pato Pekin at 7.30 for 8.00Friday 16 July - Brown’s in Duquesa Port 7.30 for 8.00For more information contact the Chairman, Chris Wright, on 671 846 204 or Jackie McIntyre on 678 124 902.

Perduran los familiaresSe detuvo en la loma y, desde allí, vio la tierra de sus antepasados cubierta de silencio (grama e hinojo, romero y bruma entre los nísperos), la casa demolida en la quietud de una añoranza terrena donde fl irteaban gorriones y mirlos entre las ruinas. Vio aparecer un rayo de sol, pero más tarde, comenzó a llover, en la lejanía del mar se divisaba un chorro de agua, era una nube en forma humana, como un venenciador que arrojara vino al mar, el mar era una copa inmensa, y en el cielo un camarero animado, nutría con la lluvia el horizonte. ¿Adónde habían ido todos? ¿Por qué estaba en ese lugar? La lluvia se hizo por momentos más intensa, y pensó que debía buscar refugio, pero se quedó por más tiempo, unos minutos más; allí en el cerro sintió tanta nostalgia, unida a la melancolía de la tarde, donde pardales se guarecían en la arboleda del jardín abandonado; la llovizna, ahora, penetraba en su cabello, chorreaban gotas de agua por su rostro igual que por el níspero y el jazmín amarillo, una lluvia para su fi gura como si fuera un arbusto más, un pájaro, una fl or, una lluvia para la vida del campo, una lluvia suave ahora pero calando su cuerpo entero, su alma, entrando en los recuerdos y sintiendo a todos los que allí vivieron una vez junto a ella: La prima jovial paseándose entre los viñedos, amiga de correrías por la aldea; su hermano Antonio, labrador incansable que se fue a una ciudad del norte, para dedicarse a la industria del automóvil (él era el que arreglaba casi todos los tractores y las máquinas
de arar de los vecinos cuando aún vivía en el cortij o, y cuando llegaba de vacaciones, todos le requerían por algún problema mecánico); Arturo, el hij o de Pablo, enamorado de ella, que le cantaba al atardecer, antes de la llegada de su padre, y ella se asomaba a la puerta para sonreírle despacio y quedar con él sobre las nueve, detrás del cortij o de Antonio; su padre, curtido en su piel de tierra, con su tono de voz de agricultura mancillada: “Niña que no me des ningún disgusto”; su madre, la fl or caída en la tempestad de una enfermedad irreversible, su madre, hoja blanca, asunto del amor en la fi nca de sus antepasados, mujer plena de la que el vecino Miguel decía que se alejó del mundo y de la vida con demasiadas cosas todavía por hacer... ¿Adónde estaban todos? Arturo, su prima Julia, Antonio... La lluvia había cesado de caer en la tierra, pero en el mar, seguía el venenciador derramando el vino del cielo, agua densa y solitaria, que a ella le hizo recordar bajo el limonero, el rayo presuntuoso que cayó un invierno y casi mata a Margarita; y recordó a su primo, cuando contó que en ese mismo limonero había visto a un ángel tomando de sus frutos, al que preguntó por qué cogía limones, y éste le contestó que los limones eran para llevárselos a San Isidro. “A ver si me entero, ¿quién vino a robarnos del limonero?”, preguntaba mi tía, con asombro. ¿Adónde están todos? ¿Adónde estaba ella? ¿Por qué había venido esta tarde, y desde este cerro, bajó a los cortij os y a los huertos de su

pasado? Aquí en el altozano, miradas de lluvias hacen tocar el amor de estos campos, contagiar la semilla madura a una vida que fue y ya ha pasado. Finalmente, antes de entrar en la vieja casa, empapada, su pelo y sus ropas como pétalos de una fl or humana al albedrío, se dij o, pensando en voz alta: “Oh Altura, déjame resbalar con la lluvia y el águila hasta ese hombre, hasta esa mujer, hasta ese hermano; que hoy mi presente sea gota de lluvia que a la salida del sol llame a la puerta y a todos los vea de nuevo en el presente eterno que concibe nuevas andanzas para mi destino”.

The rules for getting state healthcare in Spain are different from those in the UK. The NHS is a residence-based system, which means that all you need to access healthcare in Great Britain is to be ‘ordinarily resident’ (see Returning to the UK).In Spain however, the system is contribution-based, which means that normally you must have paid into the social security system in order for you and your dependants to get state healthcare. These social security contributions can be paid by your employer or by yourself as a self-employed worker. You may also be eligible to register to pay voluntary contributions if you have paid contributions at any point in Spain and have paid contributions for 3 out the last 12 years in any

Prescription charges and cutbacksThe Spanish health scheme has modernised its system with improved hi-tech links to the social security and the central database. What has this meant? There are now machines to read your Spanish health card and check your status. Some residents who were registered at various health centre’s and entitled to health care and free prescriptions have already received notice of this change and are being asked to pay for their medications. It would be wise to check your position now and not wait until you need medical assistance.
You may be entitled to a Spanish pension?If you are a resident pensioner, never paid social security contributions and have little or no income you may be entitled to a Spanish Pension. You need not have worked in Spain. You need to meet a certain criteria and your fi nancial problems could be solved.
Inheritance taxAssets of many non-residents and residents alike are by law subject to inheritance tax. The rules are complicated and one must not gen-eralise on the rate of tax payable. The amount due depends primarily on the individuals circumstances
Costa Advice Bureauand cannot be structured by tables and charts to arrive at the total due as this could result in costly errors. Trusting inheritors duly pay the de-duced amount. Remember the tax authorities will gladly accept your money if you overpay. The fear as-sociated with this levy has permit-ted unregulated fi nancial advisers to take advantage of some elderly home owners encouraging them to enter into all types of investments and schemes to purportedly avoid paying this duty. With the generous deductions allowed by the Andalu-sia government, most mid to lower priced property owners may be to-tally exempt from the tax.
Driving in fl ip fl opsOn the 25 of May the new traffi c laws came into force. Pamphlets were sent out to the homes of most residents. The literature explains the new points system. Some of the lesser infractions will incur a fi ne but no points on your driving licence. Residents cannot legally be fi ned on the spot and now have twenty days to pay their fi nes with a reduction of 50 percent for early payment. Now that summer is here one has to remember that driving in fl ip fl op type sandals is illegal.

ACHES and PAINSWhat is pain?
It is an attention grabbing message which travels to the brain along our nerves and our nerves are all safely embedded within our body’s muscles.
What causes pain? Pain has just 3 causes. A nerve is; 1) diseased, 2) injured or 3) it is being squashed.If you are not diseased and not injured but still you have pain,
then your nerves are being squashed by your own seizing muscles.When seizing muscles tighten, they squeeze our nerves and we ache.
When muscles seize, they squash our nerves and we feel pain. But the GOOD NEWS is SEIZED MUSCLES CAN BE CURED
CRAMP, TINGLES, NUMBNESS,VARICOSE VEINSThese are all signs of seized muscles squashing our blood
vessels and causing an interrupted blood supply. Our 100,000km or 60,000 miles of blood vessels, both arteries and veins all exist safely embedded within our muscles’ fi bres. When our muscles seize and tighten then our veins are squeezed upwards to the muscle’s surface, creating “varicose veins” and our arteries become squashed deep inside, restricting our blood supply and causing it to slow.
And the GOOD NEWS is VARICOSE VEINS CAN BE CURED When an artery is being squashed and blood fl ow reduced, we experience
“numbness” in our arms, hands, legs and feet as they, lacking in blood, “go to sleep”. When the blood comes fl ooding back then we get the
“tingling” of “pins and needles” as the area refi lls with blood. What Causes Cramp?
When one seized muscle completely squashes an artery, stopping the blood fl ow then the following muscle, the “next one in sequence” for the
blood, is “starved of blood”. It goes into “spasm”, it “cramps”. The Muscle Renewal System is unique and it works.

The peak for sterling last year was the £1.19 it achieved in late June. Prior to that the last time it saw £1.19 was during its precipitous tumble almost to parity with the euro in November 2008. Now it is back up there, having a serious look at an upward break that could set it on its way to £1.30. It is possible? Or will the gravity that has trouble it for nearly three years drag it back to earth once more?On the face of it, this should be a no-brainer. Euroland is displaying all the worst traits of a currency union that applies a one-size-fi ts-all interest rate to a group of 16 different countries. Britain, meanwhile, seems to have accidentally elected a coalition government blessed with the ability and commitment to set right a national debt that will have doubled in the space of a handful of years. Sterling is sure to be the winner? Right?There can be little doubt that, if the leaders of Euroland were to sit a GCSE in fi nancial crisis management, there would not be many A-stars on the list of results. The Greek crisis had been
looming for years, ever since the country fudged its accounts - ably assisted by Goldman Sachs - to cheat its way into membership in the fi rst place. On at least three occasions this year the euro zone leaders put their heads together to come up with a suitable fi nancial safety net to bail out Greece and hold the currency union together. The fi rst few efforts, each with a successively higher price tag, failed. The agreement reached at the beginning of May had to work; if not, Greece would have had to default on repayments in the middle of the month. The €750 billion stabilisation fund was massively bigger than its failed predecessors because the delay had added the names of Portugal and Spain to the danger list.So far, the bailout has done its job. Greece has not gone bust because the EU and the International Monetary Fund have fi lled its funding gap at an affordable price. But there are rumours of two ‘secret clauses’ in the agreement. One apparently says that if the bailout is proved to be unconstitutional in any European court it will be scrapped. The other says the nations providing the money do not have to do so at a loss; if they cannot raise cash at less than the interest rate charged to Greece (or Spain or Portugal) the programme grinds to a halt. Neither clause would be ridiculous but the possibility of their existence raises doubts about commitment, especially on
the part of Germany which is up for €145 billion of the money.Britain’s new coalition government, meanwhile, has been making the right noises. Savings and waste-avoidance is supposed to save £6 billion this year but that is just the low-hanging fruit. The real meat of the strategy will be revealed in the budget on 22 June. Investors are quietly confi dent that the new boys will sort things out but not until a satisfactory budget is revealed will the pound - and the gilt market - fully be able to command the confi dence of investors and credit rating agencies.In the meantime sterling has gained good ground against a weak euro to break the £1.20 benchmark. There is bound to be a queue of sellers eager to take advantage of these highs but there will also be buyers keen to avoid missing the boat if the pound leaps ahead.

The warm weather has arrived and with it we see an increase in skin problems. The skin is the body’s protective cover, it is in direct contact with the environment and disease causing agents. The skin may suff er various types of diseases.The primary function of the skin is to protect and isolate the body and its parts from injury. The layer of fat, just below the skin helps the body to maintain its temperature and by altering the blood supply, protect us from extreme temperature changes in the environment.Skin disease or dermatitis, initially it may be refl ected in reddening, small pustules (acne), hair loss and may or may not be painful. These signs may be located in one circumspect area or may aff ect the entire body, scratching, itching, and/or biting may aggravate the problem. Dermatitis may be due to many diverse causes such as: allergies, bacteria, fungi, parasites, burns, hormonal or nervous or psychological problems or other less common causes.In our animals allergies or parasites are the most guilty parties. When the condition becomes advanced a problem localised in one area may spread and be further complicated by a secondary infection, which in some cases may become chronic. A veterinarian ought to be consulted before a small problem gets out of hand.Allergic Dermatitis is characterised by itching and redness, the animal licks, bites, or scratches itself excessively (as in other types of dermatitis), initiating a vicious cycle of itching andscratching/biting. Treatment, as in most skin problems, is twofold: fi rst is to break the itch-scratch cycle and second is to get at the primary cause of the problem. Many times allergic problems are tedious to sort out, pollen based allergies being some of the most diffi cult to resolve, followed closely by food based allergies. In breeding has caused the existance of some dogs
to be allergic to some if not all types of meat protien. This is pre y odd considering that dogs are carnivores or meat eaters! The majority of these cases are cured by changing them to types of meat that they are not allergic to or in those more extreme cases they have to be put on a soy based protien diet, eff ectively becoming vegetarians. This is diff erent to those cases where some of the owners of some dogs and cats may themselves be vegetarians and wish their animals to prescribe to the same dietary habits, they should take care as dogs and cats by the basis of their digestive tracts are meat eaters.Fungal infections are common, more so in cats, and some times they may be contagious to one or more other member of the family, they are, generally speaking, relatively easy to identify and cure. Mange is caused by mycroscopic “bugs”, the most common of these found aff ecting our pets are not generally contagious between species. Mange when diagnosed early is also easy to control although it may require 2-3 months of treatment depending upon how advanced a specifi c case may be!Over-bathing o en reduces the skins natural defences and as a result may open the door to disease causing agents.Many of the treatments for these problems may include medicated baths, one should never use human shampoos on animals as their skin pH (acidity level ) is quite diff erent to ours!Skin diseases o en require patience in achieving a cure. Dermatology has become an area of specialised a ention in Veterinary Medicine in the past 10 - 15 years and sometimes it may be necessary to search out a specialist.Remember the skin is the mirror of health.Ronald Rosenfeld D.V.M.Sabinillas952 891 387

International Fencing Club boasts twoSpanish ChampionsOver 700 young fencers from all over the country took part in this month’s U12 Spanish Championships in Madrid.Estepona’s International Fencing Club once again proved it was one of the elite clubs in the country with its swordswomen Reina Pino and Olatz Bilbao both winning gold, the latter successfully defending her title from last year’s contest.
In the U10 category Eduardo Lozano, who started last year’s competition as favourite, came within one hit of a medal after a great performance against each of his opponents.There were also good performances from Mia Wellington and Nasinne Hammali, both ranking in the top ten.

The Volvo World Match Play Championship is set for a new date in 2011 and will be held 19th to 22nd May, 2011 at Finca Cortesin Hotel, Golf and Spa on the magnifi cent Andalucian coast in Southern Spain.Securing a new permanent date for the Championship has been at the very heart of this announcement. With the global schedule becoming ever more congested in the Autumn months with existing tournaments and the addition of new events in Europe and Asia, Volvo and IMG have worked together with the European Tour and, crucially, the players, to ensure that this world class event is given the date it properly deserves. The new permanent May date for the Championship is secured under a four year agreement with the European Tour (2011-2014) and ensures the Volvo World Match Play Championship is guaranteed the Spanish sunshine and that the world’s best players are able to include the Volvo World Match Play Championship in their schedules; and crucially, the aim is that the Volvo World Match Play Championship will now be the sole dominant European Tour event played in the new date.As well as a new date, Volvo and partners IMG announce further improvements that will ensure that the Championship build on its status as a world class event, including an increased fi eld size, increased prize
fund and a refi ned qualifi cation criteria. However, the key characteristics of the Championship, including the ultimate thrill of match play golf, will continue as before.The 16 man fi eld will be increased to allow 24 of the world’s best players to compete for this coveted title and the qualifi cation process, so successful in gathering one of the highest quality international fi elds on the European Tour in 2009, has been modifi ed to accommodate the increase.In keeping with its world class status the prize fund for the 2011 Championship increases to €3.4 million with a fi rst prize of €800,000, the highest on the European Tour outside of the Majors, World Golf Championship events and the Dubai World Golf Championship.Ross Fisher, 2009 Volvo World Match Play Champion, concluded, ”Winning this prestigious title was a very important achievement for me, especially having grown up watching so many great players win this event over the years. I thoroughly enjoy match play and as I am working to qualify for the 2010 Ryder Cup this year, I hope that winning such a prestigious match play tournament against such a strong fi eld might have impressed our European Captain, Colin Montgomerie, who was at Finca Cortesin watching the Championship last year.”
El Volvo Mundial Match Play se disputará del 19 al 22 de mayo de 2011 en el magnífi co recorrido malagueño de Finca Cortesín, en Casares, contando con la participación de 24 jugadores, diferente sistema de clasifi cación e incremento en el montante en premios.
Per Ericsson, Presidente y Consejero Delegado de Volvo Event Management, explicó las novedades de cara al 2011: “Siendo la innovación un concepto clave para Volvo, y no obstante el éxito de la pasada edición, hemos continuado trabajando junto a nuestros socios, Finca Cortesín, IMG y el Circuito Europeo con el fi n de que el torneo evolucione, y nos ha llevado tiempo su ubicación en el calendario.Se disputará en el mes de mayo durante los próximos cuatro años, de 2011 a 2014, contará con 24 jugadores e incrementará el montante en premios con 3.4 millones de euros, de los cuales 800.000 serán para el ganador. Además se aplicará un nuevo sistema de clasifi cación, lo que sin duda va a contribuir a la consolidación del torneo al más alto nivel, manteniendo la modalidad match-play que lo hace tan especial.El año pasado el formato liguilla fue bien acogido, sin embargo, esta vez hemos querido darle mayor emoción ampliándolo a ocho grupos de tres jugadores cada uno, lo que signifi ca que habrá más partidos en juego y el público disfrutará más”.Sergio García se ha mostrado asimismo encantado con las buenas noticias: “El año pasado el Volvo Mundial Match Play fue un éxito y me alegro mucho del cambio de fecha. Finca Cortesín se volcó y ofreció una magnífi ca imagen de España, lo que me hizo sentir muy orgulloso. Estoy convencido de que los cambios de cara al 2011 lo harán todavía más atractivo”.
