New rules will make it easier and cheaper
to take pets to the United Kingdom
New Legislation as of January 2012 p15
ELECTRICITY has gone up in price yet
again, along with mains and bottled gas.
In terms of mains gas, authorities have
devised two tariffs – the TUR1 for households that only use this fuel for hot water
and cooking, and TUR2 for those which
use it for heating.
The former will see rises of 4.6 per cent,
or an average of 68 cents extra per
month, whilst the latter will pay in region
of 2.78 euros more a month as their
rates rise by 5.95 per cent.
A similar division of tariffs has been set
up for electricity, with those who have not
contracted a special rate for off-peak use
– the majority of consumers – seeing a
rise of 1.37 per cent, whilst those who
have chosen tariffs that involve a lower
cost per unit used at certain times of the
day looking at hikes of around 3.38 per
cent.
The price revision came into effect from
July 1, despite energy bosses’ promises
that January’s 9.8-per-cent increase
would be the last this year.
This latest price rise takes the cost of
electricity up by a further 1.5 per cent on
average. And once again, bottled gas has
increased, now standing at 14.80 euros.

the next generation
The hot afternoons are now here, so this
issue we have extended the puzzle page.

Spain still cheaper than the UK
SPAIN is the most expensive
country in the European Union in terms of telecommunications, at around 30 per
cent higher than the average
for the rest of the continent, a
recent survey reveals.
The average broadband connection costs around 35 to
40 euros a month plus IVA at
18 per cent, and a landline
standing charge is around 12
to 15 euros.
This said, Spain is one of the
cheapest countries in the EU
in terms of alcohol and tobacco, at 20 per cent below the
European average.
Overall, according to a recent
report by statistics office Eurostat, Spain remains one of
the least expensive countries
to live in.
Food, services and consumer
goods as a whole cost 97 per
cent of the EU average, although domestic appliances,
furniture and shoes cost nine
per cent, seven per cent and
one per cent more respectively.
Clothes cost 90 per cent of
the EU average, with services
and transport at 92 per cent,
food and non-alcoholic drinks
at 94, and restaurants and
hotels at 95 per cent.
Even gas and electricity, which
have gone up in price twice so
far this year, are still only 95
per cent of the EU average.
Greece, Cyprus and Portugal
are still cheaper to live than
Spain, however, with average
prices across the board at 96,
89 and 88 per cent respectively.
The UK remains amongst the
most expensive countries in
Europe, with the cost of living
being 104 per cent of the av-
erage for member states.
Denmark, Finland, Luxembourg, Sweden, Ireland, Belgium and France are the most
costly countries to live in,
ranging from 143 per cent for
Denmark to 112 per cent for
France and Belgium.
The EU’s cheapest country is
Bulgaria, where the cost of
living is 51 per cent of the EU
average, followed by Romania
at 59 per cent and Poland at
63 per cent.
EU crackdown on drivers committing traffic
offences abroad
Drivers will be punished for traffic offences they commit abroad, including the
four “big killers” causing 75% of road fatalities - speeding, breaking traffic lights,
failure to use seatbelts and drink driving
- following a vote in the European Parliament today.
European Commission Vice President
Siim Kallas, responsible for Transport
said. “ “The four big killers like speeding
and drunk driving are still responsible
for thousands of needless deaths on Eu-

rope’s roads, and each death shatters a
family’s life. We know that a foreign driver is three times more likely to commit
an offence than a resident driver. These
new rules should have a powerful deterrent effect and change behaviour. Many
people still seem to think that when they
go abroad the rules no longer apply to
them. My message is that they do apply
and now we are going to apply them.”
EU figures suggest that foreign drivers account for 5% of traffic but around 15 % of
speeding offences. Most go unpunished,
with countries unable to pursue drivers
once they return home.

Courts
Slap
Greedy
Banks
Case on April 13, 2001.
A bank had imposed an
eye-watering 18% interest rate on a consumer’s deferred mortgage
repayment. The victim
householder wisely referred to the rate recommended by the Consumer Credit Act. This
was 10.62 percent.
The bank argued that
the rate had been
agreed by the householder so it does pay
to read the small print.
The warmly welcomed
court decision ruled
that in Spain, independent agreements (autonomy) will always be
overruled and limited by
the laws relating to Law,
Moral and Public Order
rulings.
Spanish property specialist and lawyer, Maria
L. de Castro of costalu-
Property buyers frustrated by banks who seem
to be a law unto themselves when setting
interest rates and fees
will be relieved to know
that it is the courts, not
the lender, that will decide if an interest rate
is disproportionate or
not. As banks are notorious for their greed
the courts often find on
behalf of the distressed
mortgagee.
There is precedence;

zlawyers.es says, “This
means that any borrower need no longer
presume that an agreement signed in haste,
or under duress, is untouchable. The ruling
opens the gate for legal
examination of abusive
rates of interest, not
just by banks but by
other lenders too.”
This important case
means that it is the
Spanish legal system
empowered by government, not the banks,
that makes a final decision on interest rates
imposed even if agreement had been previously been made.

Mobile phone users are epic
texters, says Which?
By sending 10 texts
a day, the average
mobile user writes
the equivalent of
epic novel War and
Peace every five
and a half years*,
according to new
research by Which?
Mobile.
With 15% of pay
monthly users and
5% of pay-as-yougo (PAYG) customers sending more
than 20 texts a day,
heavy texters could
write the equivalent
of The Complete
Works of Shakespeare in just over
four years**.
Customers on a
contract tend to
be more prolific
texters, with pay
monthly and SIMonly
customers
sending an average
of 13 texts a day,
more than double
the texts than the
average pay-as-yougo user***.
Unlimited text deals
on SIM-only and pay
monthly contracts
can cost as little as
£10 a month. The
cost of sending a
text for PAYG customers cost around
10p, depending on
the network.
Five literary classics

Tom McLennan, Head
of Which? Mobile says:
“If you’re an epic
texter make sure
you’re on a phone
deal that reflects

Increase in salary
threshold for mortgage
debt embargos
HOMEOWNERS unable to pay their mortgage will normally have part of their salary or other monthly income embargoed
before their property is repossessed,
subject to a minimum to prevent banks
leaving them with a zero balance every
month.
The Council of Ministers has approved
a new decree to increase this minimum
part of a house-owner’s salary.
But the PSOE, PP and CiU, who voted in
favour of the law, received a hostile response when they campaigned for home
repossessions to wipe out the unpaid
mortgage debt, as is the case in the UK
and USA.
At present, when a home is repossessed
by the bank and auctioned off, the commission, legal expenses and other costs
related to this are added to the amount
of the debt still remaining – and the
homeowner remains liable to pay it.
This means a victim of a repossession is
in exactly the same situation as before,
but without a home.
It also means that a person who has lost
their property will never be able to obtain a mortgage in the future, even when
their financial situation improves.
Vice-president of the central government,
Alfredo Pérez Rubalcaba, has hit out at
banks and building societies for agreeing to lend money for home purchases to
people they knew would never be able to
pay it back, accusing the lenders of having created the current mass repossession crisis themselves.

Euribor falls, but mortgages remain more

New roaming proposal
to benefit mobile phone
users across Europe
The European Commission will present
its proposals for updated EU roaming
rules to provide a long-term solution
to cut roaming costs when the current
Roaming Regulation expires at the end
of June 2012.
THE Euribor fell in the last
month to 2.144 per cent,
but mortgages are still
more expensive now than
they were a year ago.
Last June, the Eurozone’s
interest rate – which affects mortgages, loans
and savings in countries
that use the euro as currency – reached an historic low of 1.281 per cent.
This May, the rate was up
to 2.147, and has fallen
in the past month, but
homeowners with variable
rate mortgages that are
reviewed annually will now
see their monthly payments go up based upon
last year’s figures.
For an average mortgage
of 150,000 euros payable
over a 25-year term, an
increase of 61.72 euros
a month will be seen, or
741.12 euros per year.
The rate was at its lowest
in March 2010, when it
plummeted to 1.215 per
cent, but the Central European Bank (BCE) has announced plans to increase
it again this month.
Almost five in 10 Spanish kids are overweight
Almost five in 10 kids are overweight
NEARLY half of all Spanish kids are severely overweight, shock figures reveal.
An estimated 45 per cent of children in
Spain are too fat, mainly due to an increase in fast food and a more sedentary
lifestyle.
Among the six- to nine-year-old agegroup, 26 per cent are overweight and
19 per cent are clinically obese, meaning
they need medical treatment to prevent
serious health problems in later life.
The problem is worse in boys than girls,
with 22 per cent of lads being too fat
compared to 16 per cent of girls.
According to a recent study, obese kids
are more likely to come from families
with a low level of education and a low
income, with 48 of children of working class parents being seriously overweight.
This is thought to be due to less money
being spent on quality food, or childcare
and healthy, outdoor activities being substituted by leaving the kids in front of the
television.
The Commission intends to address the
underlying lack of competition in the
markets for voice, text and data roaming, thereby solving in a structural way
the problem of excessive retail prices for
voice, text and data roaming, while foreseeing safeguard retail price caps not
only for voice and text roaming but also
data roaming.
In the Digital Agenda for Europe adopted
in May 2010 the European Commission
set the objective that differences between roaming and national telecoms
tariffs should approach zero by 2015. Today voice roaming prices within Europe
are still more than three times the level
of domestic charges.
For data roaming the consumer often
pays less than 5 cents for downloading
a megabyte of data at home, but this
may turn into €2.60 per MB when downloading abroad. Wholesale data roaming
charges have fallen significantly but consumers are not seeing that in lower retail
prices.

EU crackdown on drivers committing
traffic offences abroad Continued from page1
The proposal for a Directive on
cross border enforcement in the
field of road safety aim to remedy that situation. Ministers have
reached an agreement on a text
that targets traffic offences with
a critical impact on road safety,
including the four “big killers”
causing 75% of road fatilities:
1.Speeding
2.Failing to stop at traffic lights
3.Failing to wear seatbelts
4.Drink driving
As well as,
1.Driving under influence
of drugs
2.Failing to wear safety
helmets
3.Illegal use of an
emergency lane
4.Illegal use of mobile
phone while driving.
The proposals would enable EU
drivers to be identified and thus
prosecuted for offences committed in a Member State other
than then one where their vehicle is registered. In practical
terms, the new rules will allow
for an electronic data exchange
network to be put in place to allow for the exchange of the necessary data between the country in which the offence was
committed and the country in
which the vehicle is registered.
Once the owner’s name and address are known, a letter of information, for which a model is
established by the proposed Directive, will be sent to him/her.
It will be for the Member State
of offence (where the offence
was committed) to decide on
the follow up for the traffic offence. The Directive does not
harmonise either the nature of
the offence nor the penalties for
the offence. So it is the national
rules in the Member State of
offence, according to national
law, which will continue to apply
regarding both the nature of the
offence and penalties .
The legislative proposals need
final approval by Member State
Governments before becoming
law – this should happen in the
coming weeks.There is then
a two year period for Member
States to transpose EU legislation before it comes into force,
possibly by 2013.

Speed limits back up on motorways ?
AFTER just four months of speed limits on motorways being reduced to 110 kilometres per hour at
a cost of several million euros to change the signs,
the central government has put them back up to
120.
They say this was because crude oil prices have
dropped and they have saved 450 million euros as
a result of the short-lived lower limits.
But this is likely to have included money clawed
back in fines, and the 230,000 euros it cost to put
up stickers on over 6,150 signs would have to be
offset against the figure.
It will cost the same to cover signs again with 120kilometre stickers, since they have found that the
110-kilometre ones do not peel off.
Government vice-president and electoral candidate for next year, Alfredo Pérez Rubalcaba, says
the reasons for cutting the speed limit were ‘strict-
ly financial’ given the turbulence in North Africa
and other oil-producing countries.
But in Holland, the speed limit on the motorway is
130 kilometres per hour, because experts say a
car is at its most economical on fuel when cruising
at this speed.
However, the government maintains that drivers
reach their destination more quickly at 110 kilometres per hour than at 120, since they have to
stop less often to fill up with petrol.

Pego officially the hottest place in the
Comunidad Valenciana.
TEMPERATURES soared to nearly
39ºC in the shade in Pego on Saturday afternoon, making it officially
the hottest place in the Comunidad
Valenciana.
In the meantime, Ontinyent, Orihuela and Bicorp saw the mercury
rocket to 37ºC, whilst towns and villages inland were chilly in comparison with the thermometers showing
a meagre 35ºC.
The most sweltering part of the day
was at around 17.00hrs, when the
heat became unbearable and humidity levels were at nearly 100 per
cent.
In sharp contrast, night temperatures on Saturday fell to around
15ºC in Benifassà (Castellón) and
Villena (Alicante), and 16ºC in Castellfort (Castellón).
Although temperatures fell only
slightly on Sunday – measuring 35ºC
and 34ºC in Xàtiva and Requena
(Valencia) and 33ºC in Alicante and
Elche – cloudy skies, rain and thun-
der blighted the rest of the weekend
for beachgoers.
Minimum temperatures were back
to a bearable 21ºC by nighfall in
Jávea and Vinaròs.
Monday and Tuesday dawned with
bright sunshine, intense heat and
humidity, but after Wednesday’s
cooler climates the weekend is
expected to see more consistent
weather conditions in keeping with
the time of year.

‘Stolen baby’
reunited with mum
– 36 years later
www.thetraderonline.es
EYE 21 - Vodaphone Award
THE first case in the Comunidad Valenciana
of a ‘stolen baby’ being identified has led to a
woman finding her natural mother.
Marta A., 36, was one of the babies stolen
from its parents by Franco’s supporters and
sold to parents desperate for a child. The
birth mothers either had no idea, they were
told their child had died or simply had no
choice and were left to suffer their loss.
Many were already in prison because their
values clashed with those of the dictatorial
ruler. Now, numerous adults born between
1936 and 1975 – in some cases, even later
– are clamouring for the State to help them
find the parents they were snatched from at
birth.
Marta, from Almassora (Castellón province)
reveals that she received a recorded delivery
letter at the end of June from Amaya Gorostiza, manager of a DNA laboratory in Madrid,
telling her that her search for her mother had
been successful. Over a thousand miles away
to the south, Begoña J., 56, received the very
same letter.
Mother and daughter spoke on the telephone
for the first time ever. The two women had
already suspected they may be mother and
daughter, hence the DNA testing, and had
spent an entire week in each others’ company
in Almassora in May. They said they had sat
up talking until the early hours of the morning
trying to making up for lost time.
Marta explains that she found out a long time
ago she had been adopted, and discovered a
document which gave the name of her birth
mother. “But I had the best parents in the
world, and did not want to drag up the past,”
she confessed.
Scientists at Valencia Polytechnic have
created a gadget that acts like a ‘guide
dog in sunglasses’ to help give blind people back some of their Independence.
Dubbed the EYE 21, the electronic tool
– which has won its inventors the annual
Vodaphone Award – functions via microcameras built into a pair of sun-shades
with headphones.
It is capable of recognising sound images

New York Times
slams Castellón
airport
CASTELLÓN airport is the perfect example of ‘bad management’, according to a
report in the New York Times.
“Like the airport in Castellón, not all
projects are thought through properly,”
the article states, adding that although
the terminal was officially ‘opened’ in
March, it has since been the venue for a
cycling championship but ‘is still waiting
for its first flight’.
Less than two months ago, the New
York Times attributed the ‘15-M’ revolution to ‘corruption in political parties’ in
Spain, and compared the president of
the Comunidad Valenciana’s regional
government, Francisco Camps, with Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi. The
newspaper calls the airport a ‘white elephant’ and says it is just one of numerous developments across Spain which
have a maintenance cost much higher
than their financial benefits. Among
these, it mentions Ciudad Real airport in
Castilla-La Mancha, which it says went
bust because there was not enough air
traffic. “In the past 18 months, Spain has
been in the firing line for investors after
allowing the State deficit to inflate during
the days of the property market bubble,
which finally burst at the same time as
the world recession hit,” the publication
adds.

However, when both her adoptive parents
died, Marta decided to trace her real mother.
Begoña, who was born in Bilbao but moved to
the Canary Islands as an adult, never knew
her baby had been stolen. She had been told
that the child she had given birth to in Castellón General Hospital in 1974 was stillborn.
“How could they have done that to her, poor
thing?” Marta raged.

july for Aries Feathering your nest and creating and safe warm place is a important to you at the

he Pastor’s New Teeth The minister just had all of his remaining teeth pulled and new
dentures were being made. The first Sunday, he only preached 10 minutes. The second
Sunday, he preached only 20 minutes. But, on the third Sunday, he preached 1 hour 25 minutes. When asked about this by some of his congregation, he responded, “The first Sunday,
my gums were so sore, it hurt to talk. The second Sunday, my new dentures were hurting me a
lot. The third Sunday, I accidentally grabbed my wife’s dentures... And I couldn’t shut up.”
S
PAGHETTI For several
years, a man was having an affair with an Italian
woman. One night, she confided in him that she was
pregnant. Not wanting to
ruin his reputation or his
marriage, he said he would
pay her a large sum of money
if she would go to Italy to secretly have the child. If she
stayed in Italy to raise the
child, he would also provide
A
ging Aunt Mildred was a 93-year-old
woman who was particularly despondent over the recent death of her husband.
She decided that she would just kill herself
and join him in death. Thinking that it would
be best to get it over with quickly, she took
out his old Army pistol and made the decision to shoot herself in the heart, since
it was badly broken in the first place. Not
wanting to miss the vital organ and become a
vegetable and a burden
to someone, she called
her doctor’s office to
inquire as to just exactly
where the heart would
be on a woman. The
doctor said, ‘Your heart
would be just below your
left breast’. Later that
night........ Mildred was
admitted to the hospital
with a gunshot wound
to her knee.
july for Libra News around your career early this month has you think of alternative ideas. You
know what you don’t want but it’s important to find what you do want and you could feel that options are
becoming less easy to find. But this time in your life can be turned around into a space where you really
get to grips with what is authentic and true for you and the scene is set for a much more manageable and
perfect role for you. News around the 15th could be a little bit life changing and there is a hidden benefit
that you couldn’t see coming. Find out more www.Ask-the-Astrologer.com
july for Scorpio As far as relationships are concerned, the emphasis is on more than one and
potential romantic interludes can make life a little complex. But there are all kinds of relationship so a
platonic friendship can turn out to be just that. The start of this month is perfect for holidays and travel in

suit you so perfectly even though you may have to make adjustments. You get luck around the 23rd. Find
out more www.Ask-the-Astrologer.com
july for Sagittarius Turbulent times can throw up unexpected opportunities and hence in-
crease your ability to be resourceful and inventive. Nothing is set in stone for now, so remain flexible and
don’t feel that you have to make any kind of commitment until you have given yourself time to go through
the finer detail. The Sun moves into Leo on the 23rd and this is a more settled and harmonious time for
you. Take advantage of the possibilities of learning new skills and honing your talents. Find out more www.
Ask-the-Astrologer.com
july for Capricorn There are compelling reasons for you to be confident, particularly in the
realization that you have been right about so many things when life has seemed so up in the air. You have
taken on the role of being the voice of calm good sense and a reminder of realistic expectations and your
efforts have not gone unnoticed. Expect some kind of reward in your professional life and as far as your
romantic life is concerned, you and another are ready to make things a little more permanent any time
soon.
july for Aquarius While an ideal that you have been looking for has so far alluded you, there
is no reason to stop going towards that perfect situation. In the meantime, the experience you are continuing to gain is going to set you up in the near future and nothing is ever a waste of time. But you feel you
should be more productive somehow, and you find the opportunity for this comes when you join forces with
another in the third week. It comes as no surprise that what you thought all along turns out to be true. You
use your intuition in a very subtle but certain way. Find out more www.Ask-the-Astrologer.com
july for Pisces Events at the start of July have a way of jump starting endeavours close to your
heart. This in terms of artistic and creative goals which is a particularly strong focus for you just now. However, your money situation continues to be a little erratic and you are willing to try new avenues to earn
more cash. You are resourceful and clever at finding a niche in the market which is worth pursuing. Be
realistic and methodical and combine this with your natural flair for a winning combination. Find out more

child support until the child
turned 18. She agreed, but
asked how he would know
when the baby was born..
To keep it discreet, he told
her to simply mail him a post
card, and write ‘Spaghetti’
on the back. He would then
arrange for the child support payments to begin. One
day, about 9 months later, he
came home to his confused

hat is a 710 knob? A few days ago I was
having some work done on my car at
my local garage, when a blonde came in and
asked for a seven-hundred-ten knob. We all
looked at each other and another customer
asked, ‘What is a seven-hundred-ten knob?’
She replied, ‘You know, the little piece in
the middle of the engine, I have lost it and
need a new one.’ She said that she did not
know exactly what it was, but this piece had
always been there. The mechanic gave her a
piece of paper and a pen and asked her to
draw what the piece looked like. She drew
a circle and in the middle of it wrote 710.
He then took her over to another car which
had its hood up and asked is there a 710 on
this car? She pointed and said, ‘Of course,its
right there. If you’re not sure what a 710
knob is, see below,,,,,
received a very strange post
card today.’ ‘Oh, just give it
to me and I’ll explain it later,’
he said. The wife obeyed
and watched as her husband
read the card, turned white,
and fainted. On the card
was written: Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti,

hat a brilliant idea this is. At least women can feel safe now. With the high
rate of attacks on women in secluded car
parks, especially during evening hours, Cardiff City Council has established a “Women

here is a factory in Northern Minnesota
which makes the Tickle Me Elmo toys.
The toy laughs when you tickle it under the
arms. Well, Lena is hired at The Tickle Me
Elmo factory and she reports for her first
day promptly at 8:00 am. The next day at 8:45
am there is a knock at the Personnel Manager’s door. The Foreman throws open the door
and begins to rant about the new Employee.
He complains that she is incredibly slow and
the whole line is backing up, putting the entire production line behind schedule. The
Personnel Manager decides he should see
this for himself, so the 2 men march down to
the factory floor. When they get there the
line is so backed up that there are Tickle Me
Elmo’s all over the factory floor and they’re
really beginning to pile up. At the end of the
line stands Lena surrounded by mountains
of Tickle Me Elmo’s. She has a roll of plush
Red fabric and a huge bag of small marbles.
The 2 men watch in amazement as she cuts
a little piece of fabric, wraps it around two
marbles and begins to carefully sew the little
package between Elmo’s legs. The Personnel
Manager bursts into laughter. After several
minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and approaches Lena ...‘I’m sorry,’ he says
to her, barely able to keep a straight face,
‘but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you yesterday....’ ur job is to give
Elmo 2 test tickles.

Outdoor Wedding Sparks Petition To
The Bishop
Paul Needle
A wedding celebration for a British couple in Alcossebre has sparked a petition
to the Roman Catholic Bishop of Tortosa asking for the mountain-top ermita
of Santa Lucia to be made available for
marriages and other services. The petition, in turn, led to the story featuring on
Spanish national television news.
Rev Paul Needle, Vicar of St Christopher’s
English speaking church on the Costa,
celebrated the marriage of Stephen Forester and Vickie Rudkin in June. Since
Stephen’s parents live in the El Pinar
community, in which the ermita is set,
they had hoped to be allowed to use it
for the ceremony. However they were told
the Bishop of Tortosa did not allow serv-
ices inside the ornately decorated chapel
except on two occasions a year.
With a little ingenuity, the blessing of
good weather and carefully placed seats
and decorations the marriage took place
outdoors and everyone agreed that the
natural setting added to a wonderful
day.
However, after a petition led by a local
Spanish man who had been refused permission to have his wedding inside the
church pressure is growing to try and persuade the Catholic church authorities to
make more use of a unique location with
views over the mountains and the sea.

Although flying insects are

are locations where they
are a real pest, and especially mosquitoes.
do it abroad and in Spain.
If there are not likely to be
lantana plants where you
are going such as when I
was recently fishing on the
river Ebro two things can
be made up in advance
Luckily there are things
that can be done to reduce
the need for insect mesh
on windows and doors
and the constant use of
chemical repellents.
1. Fill a jar with lantana
leaves and then fill the jar
with olive oil. After a week
you will have a useful pest
repellent
The first thing is to plant
lantana plants under windows and around doors.
They repel even mosquitoes and when we first
visited the tropics we were
advised by a walking guide
to rub some leaves in our
hands and then rub the
leaves all over our bare
skin. It worked and we still
2. Essential oils can also
create a handy repellent.
Indeed Dick made the following up for the Ebro tri,
and it was a good job he
had done so Our mix is
100 ml olive oil to which
is added and shaken up
15 drops of thyme oil, 12
drops of citronella oil, 6
drops of lavender oil and
six drops of peppermint
oil. Both also act as useful
sun protection lotions.
In addition to the above
do attract geckoes to you
garden and hang bunches
of herbs high up in covered terraces to give them
somewhere to hide between hunting trips along
the ceiling.
Hope the above help you
have a comfortable summer.

New rules will make it easier and cheaper to take
pets to the United Kingdom
Dog and cat owners will find
it cheaper and easier to travel
to the UK with their pets when
new rules are introduced at
the start of next year.
The UK will harmonise its pet
movement rules with the rest
of the European Union from
1 January 2012, bringing the
UK’s Pet Travel Scheme into
line with the most recent science.
The UK will maintain its high
level of protection against animal diseases after the changes, which have the potential
to save pet owners around £7
million in fees.
Forcing pets to spend six
months in quarantine, a practice dating from the 1800s, is
no longer necessary because
of vastly improved rabies vaccines and treatments.
All pets will still need to be
vaccinated against rabies.
Pets from the EU will no longer
need a blood test and will only
have to wait 21 days before
they travel.
The changes will ensure the
risk of rabies coming to the
UK remains extremely low. It’s
estimated that the new rules
mean there would be one
case of rabies in a pet in the
UK once every 211 years, with
the possibility of a person dying from rabies obtained from
a pet once in every 21,000
years. The Health Protection
Agency considers Spain a ‘no
risk’ country for rabies.
Environment Secretary, Caroline Spelman, said:
“The UK’s quarantine system
was designed to combat the
threat of rabies in the 19th
century and has now been
left far behind by scientific
advances. What is needed
is a simpler, evidence-based
system for protecting the UK
from rabies which recognises
the actual risk to pets and pet
owners. The EU’s pet movement scheme has been working very well for nearly a decade, and it makes sense for
us to have similar rules.”
Chief Medical Officer, Professor Dame Sally Davies, said:
“Rabies is a very serious human disease and the rabiesfree status of the UK must be
protected. The EU pet travel
rules have been successful in
preventing any cases of rabies
occurring in legally moved pets
since the scheme started, so
harmonising the UK’s rules
with those of the EU will make
it easier for those who wish to
travel with their pets.”
The UK will continue to protect the public against the risk
of serious exotic tapeworm
infections and is pressing to
retain tapeworm controls for
pets entering the UK. The government has been discussing
with the European Commission the most appropriate
form of tapeworm controls for
dogs, to ensure the UK continues to be protected from Echinococcus multilocularis.
The Commission has recently
indicated that its proposals,
expected shortly, would enable the UK and other tapeworm-free countries to retain
tapeworm controls, with a
requirement that animals be
treated between one and five
days before returning to the
UK. Dog tapeworm is common
in southern Spain.
Tick treatment for pet animals returning to the UK will
no longer be required. All pet
owners travelling abroad with
their animals should discuss
with their vets the use of
treatments, including those
designed to control ticks as
part of good animal health
practice.
Detailed information on what
pet owners and vets need to
do before bringing a pet to the
UK can be found at http://
www.defra.gov.uk/wildlifepets/pets/travel or obtained
from the UK helpline +44
(0)870 241 1710.

The Walton Trophy is an annual competition played in
two parts between the Boys
of Javea Green and Benitachell.
The Rose Bowl is a contest
between the Ladies of the
two Clubs.
The Javea Boys went into the
final leg with a commanding
lead of 88 shots having won
their home game. Bill Barrie,
Mike Tebby, Mike Wynne and
skip John Pittaway helped
the Javea cause with a “Hot
Shot” (every ball counting in
a single end) – well done!
The Javea Ladies had a deficit
of 30 shots from their away
game, so a sizeable win was
needed in the home leg.
There was little room for complacency, as the Club had
been defeated the previous
week at the hands of Benitachell in the Jubilee Cup going from a 62 shot advantage
to losing by 10 shots.
The Javea Ladies completed
their task in style by winning
their home leg by 38 shots,
an overall victory of 8 shots,
giving them tenure of the coveted Rose Bowl for the next
year.
Despite a “Hot Shot”, this
time by Benitachell, Javea
Boys “contained their loss” in
their away game to -54 shots,
an overall win therefore of 34
shots. So, the Walton Trophy
sits at Javea Green for another year.
Benitachell will no doubt be
looking for revenge next year.
For greater detail of the
above reports and for more
information about our Club,
see the excellent Javea Green
website at http://javeagreenbowls.org or just come along
and see what is so compelling about this great sport.
Why not pay us a visit and
enjoy a drink in the bar or
even have an extremely well
prepared and competitively
priced lunch in great surroundings.

JUVENTUS RAISES ITS OFFER TO 40M€ FOR
ATLETICO DE MADRID SERGIO AGUERO
Italian Club JUVENTUS really
puts their money where their
mouth is, something admirable in the rumour & gossip
Football World. The Italian
Football Club announced
weeks back that ATLETICO
DE MADRID Argentine forward SERGIO AGUERO was
their “Top Priority” for the
new upcoming season & they
are not taking a NO for an
answer. According to Italian
Sports paper “La Gazzetta
dello Sport” today Juventus
will raise their initial offer
of 35M€ to 40M€ for the
Atletico player. They even go
further & insinuate that there
is an initial agreement with
the player for 7.5M€/season
net + bonuses & a 5 year
contract. This last piece of
news will need to be verified
as I am not too sure that it is
the case.
Atletico de Madrid may accept the offer as they are
willing to sell to any Club with
a good offer other than Real
Madrid. However, the final
word is with the player & local press information makes
everybody believe that Sergio
Aguero wishes to play at Real
Madrid.
Some observers are speculating that Aguero wrongly
anticipated himself in declaring that he wished to leave
Atletico &/or was badly advised by his close circle to
make the initial move without
a firm “in the hand” agreement from Real Madrid. The
player is currently perplexed
& frustrated in attempting
to understand why REAL MADRID has not yet made their
move & put forward a genuine offer.
The player is now in a very
sticky situation:
•he accepts the Juventus
offer, an option never in his
plans & with a team that will
not be playing in European
competition next season
•he waits for the Real Madrid move & offer , which
may never come due to the
blacklash from Atletico fans
& possible broken relations
with the Atletico Club
•puts his head in between
his tail & returns to Atletico
de Madrid to stay another
season
This last option would be a
disaster for the player with
is image & prestige with fans
on the floor, & with a the Club
wishes to sell but not to Real
Madrid, the Club of Aguero´s
desires.
Thus a very complex situation with still lots to be written & reported before we all
finally know for sure the destination of Sergio Aguero for
next season. All I can say now
is that the only firm offer that
Aguero has is from Juventus
& it is in the range his Club
is willing to accept. Whether
Aguero - the player - accepts
the Juventus offer or not is
still to be seen, but it is not
impossible. I presume that
there is lots of thinking to be
done by Aguero.

REAL MADRID SIGNS COENTRAO FOR 30M €
News circulating locally & awaiting an
final official announcement from REAL
MADRID indicates that 23 year old Portuguese International & BENFICA player
FABIO COENTRAO will be signed at any
moment. In fact, media announce total
agreement from all parts as the player
passed the obligatory medical exam this
morning. Benefica has also informed the
Portuguese Stock Exchange that they
have an agreement with Real Madrid
to transfer the player. The agreement is
30M€ plus the transfer of Real Madrid
defender Ezequiel Garay, the last being
valued at 10M€ plus the loan of Drenthe ( this last according to “Marca”). This
makes it a 20M€ in cash 10M€ with Garay ( + Drenthe on loan) = 30M€
The final details are currently being shut
at the “Santiago Bernabeu Stadium” offices & the official announcement is just
a matter of hours, barring a last minute
disaster that media assures will not occur. Welcome to Spanish Football Mr.
Coentrao!
REAL MADRID 2011 | MOURINHO THINKING IN MAKING
TEAM CAPTAIN AN ON-FIELD PLAYER ?
Spanish Football Sports
paper “Marca” publish today an interesting article
that should interest REAL
MADRID fans & no doubt
people within the Clubs
dressing-room. According
to the Sports paper Real
Madrid Coach Jose Mourinho is planning to make a
strategic decison for next
season by allocating the
“Captains armband” away
from current Captain goalkeeper IKER CASILLAS
onto an on-field player.
This is a theory that has
been around for sometime
in Football. Many Coaches
believe that the team Captain is more useful & effective participating directly
on the field instead of
watch the action from the
goal posts. For example,
the only player that can really “argue “ a referee decision is the Captain, & if
your 60 mts away from the
action little you can do to
pressure decisions.
The decision to “take away”
the Captains armband
from Casillas is delicate &
risky, thus José Mourinho
will have to use all his diplomatic skills, place firm &
solid arguments so as not
to ruffle feathers. Which
raises the question: who
would best be placed to
be the “on-field” Captain?
Ronaldo, Xabi Alonso or
Sergio Ramos?
Without knowing anything
about the insides of the
Real Madrid Club, & as
a simple observer from
afar, I would think XABI
ALONSO would be the ideal consensus candidate.
Xabi Alonso has a certain
“neutral” profile & has the
sufficient personality &
leadership qualities that
may well avoid controversial debates & dress-room
bad feeling. I say this if
José Mourinho does finally
put into practice want has
been reported today in the
Sports paper.
Who would you give the
armband too, & why?
Till Next time

FAST TRAIN TO ZARAGOSSA
SLOW TRAIN HOME
The AVE arrives to whisk me across the plans to Zaragossa
Paul Needle samples his favourite form of transport, the train, with a
round trip from Tarragona to Zaragossa and discovers some stunning
countryside and a few things he didn’t know before.
It started on a day out with some friends
when we drove up the Ebro Valley above
Tortosa and almost got lost in the mountains. Some nifty map reading brought
us down towards Riba-Roja where I was
amazed to find a single railway line running parallel to the road. Further research sparked the great idea for a trip
to sample the delights of train travel in
Catalunya and beyond.
Starting from Tarragona there are a few
stopping trains every day from the old
station, which nestles between the ancient Roman amphitheatre and the sea.
But several kilometres inland is the new
Tarragona station where you can take
the AVE, the sleek high-speed train that
runs almost the length of Spain, from
Barcelona to Madrid, Malaga and Seville.
It isn’t cheap but the ride to Zaragossa
is worth the money. The train calls at
Lleida, an interesting city for a stopover.
Lleida boasts a wide Ramblas and a labyrinth of pedestrian alleys. There is even
an outdoor escalator to help your climb
up to the Cathedral which dominates the
town. Part of the newly modernised station houses a hotel which is furnished
with railway memorabilia – and is well
worth a visit.
The Ebro valley.
From Lleida in the air conditioned comfort of the AVE I don’t know where to look.
The television is showing a film, the digital readout alongside the screen reports
our speed – topping 300 Kmh (That’s
a little under 190 mph and steady as a
rock) and out of the windows the countryside outside is changing steadily with the
greenery giving way to the barren sandy
moonscape. After 40 minutes I emerge
at a clean, new station called “Zaragossa
Delicias” the name means “Delightful!”
– more glamorous sounding than Liverpool Street or Blackfriars!
During my visit I discover the Romans
first called the city CeaserAugusta but
if you say it fast and often enough you’ll
get the Zaragossa it is known as today. It
also hosted one of the great early Christian Conferences in 380AD where I was
amused to find debate about the ordination of women was top of the agenda
all those centuries ago. I went into the
Cathedral to find a baptism taking place
– at 11am on a Saturday! Then for 3 Euros, there’s a heart stopping sensation in
a lift which whisks me to the top of the
tower, with panoramic views of the city.
Back down to earth I walk over a river
bridge where the metal railings are decorated with a series of padlocks, each en-
graved with the names of lovers. A local
woman assures me this was not where
each fraught pair plunged into oblivion
but was a public token securing their loving.
Then it is back at Delicias station to
catch the Regional Express train heading remorselessly across the plains, never too far from the River Ebro on which
Zaragossa stands. Although it is a single
track line, with passing places at every
wayside station the train is by no means
slow – with a maximum speed of 125
kmh. Considering that the temperature
on my trip was 38 degrees and in Winter
it can fall below freezing it is a tribute to
some clever engineering. During a recent
heatwave in Britain trains had to go slow
because the tracks were buckling!
At Caspe, half way between Zaragossa
and Tarragona, the ruined church has
been taken over by a flock of storks who
look down on the train during its brief
stop while we wait for a train in the other
direction to pass. From here, with one
very long tunnel the line emerges into
the Ebro Valley again and winds through
Riba Roja, Flix and past the power station
at Asco which looks quite out of place in
this beautiful setting.
Stunning views
Cathedral in Zaragossa.
At Mora La Nova you can see the original
glory of this line. The station is surrounded by two water towers and a turntable,
recalling the heyday of steam power,
and the disused sidings are now home
to life expired coaches which have been
shunted there and left to rust away. Mora
La Nova (as opposed to Mora Del Ebro
– on the other side of the river) owes it
“New Town” title to the railway which revitalised this remote country area when it
arrived. Mora was once a railway centre
and junction with other lines including
one which rattled down to Tortosa alongside the river.
Before my journey ends the line has one
more surprise. It turns its back on the
valley and climbs through tunnels and
viaducts into the mountains again – with
views which would be hard to find by road
– before a steady descent into Reus and
back to Tarragona. It has been a wonderful experience and an education for me.
Where next? The line from Sagunto to
Teruel beckons – so watch this space!

push them for him. He can also push them with his umbrella.
Answer: 2.The surgeon can not operate on her own son; she is his mother.
