Hes Back!
For those of you who have experienced the
wonderful cooking by chef Jiang Guojun at
Bar Yan in Calasparra, you will be pleased
to know that he has returned from his
extended holiday in China. The menu at
Bar Yan is extensive with delights from
China, Thailand and India, but if you prefer
Spanish cuisine or simply egg and chips,
Sun and her staff will be more than happy
to help. Their Menu del Dia is a bargain at
6.50.

S e c o n d a r y
Electricity
Meters for Rental
Properties
Install
one
now before the
summer season!
What is a secondary electricity meter?
A secondary electricity meter is a separate
meter that is compatible with the existing
meter in any property, but uses a pre paid
credit system. This means that a property
owner can control totally the electricity
usage of all, or some, electrical appliances
within the property. The cost of electricity
in Spain has increased dramatically over
the last 2 years and these meters are an
absolute must have for any property that
is rented out either on a full time or a part
time basis.
A secondary electricity meter will save
you money from the very first day of
installation. The return on your investment
can be as little as 6 weeks in peak season.
The Problem
Whether rentals occur during the busy
summer season or during the winter
season, the issue is the same. If 6 people
are sharing a property for a week and
they are all using televisions, radios,
hairdryers,
iPads,
laptops,
mobiles,
washing machines and dishwashers, you
will see the electricity consumption soar!

together
so
when
Flecha started
to
become
lethargic
and
also constantly
ill, Mateo was

very

After
a
detailed
diagnosis at the
vets, he was
found to have
Cushings disease, which can be very harmful
to a dog, but with help from a MAMAS
specialist, medication was arranged for him.
After a course of treatment, Flecha is now
recovering and Mateo has got his old friend
back, lively as ever.

Lexy
is
around 1 year
old and was
abandoned in
our vets by
her
owner.
We
placed
her in a foster home with
3 other small
dogs and she
is great with
them
and
loves
nothing more than
to be cuddled. She is
sterilised and
ready for a
new home.
Dino
is
around
18
months
old
and had been
living on the
streets for 2
weeks
until
he was finally
caught.
He
is still a little shy, but is
getting more
confident
each day and
is great with
other dogs.
Chico is a
stunning Mastin cross and
was found on
the
streets
extremely
emaciated.
Blood
tests
for Mediterranean canine
diseases were
negative although he is
very thin with
acute anaemia. As soon
as he arrived in his foster home he crashed
out on the sofa and is relishing the TLC from
his foster mum. This gentle giant is good with
other dogs and needs a permanent home.
We
have
5
beautiful
kittens
looking
for
new homes.
There are 2
tortoiseshell,
1 tabby, 1
black
and
white and 1
ginger
and
white. They
are still with
their mum in
a foster home
and are ready to be reserved.
Call 645 469 253 for more information on
any of the above pets.

I wasnt in remission.
And I would not have that long!
But facing cancer together
Had made our family strong.
As I faced my treatment,
Id read one every day.
One said - You can beat this, Mum!
And wed all hold hands and pray.

The
lady
bought
the
animals
legitimately, but rumours abound that
some breeders/vendors of these pets
claim to have recognised their breeding
stock and want them back. This may
be possible if the animals were chipped
by them.
However, it must be made
clear that ownership of the pets was
passed on to the lady who bought them
and she, in turn,
has signed over
ownership to the
charities concerned
so that they can
re-home them. If,
however, you wish
to lay claim to one
throughout.

June,
Donna
Walsh,
who lives in San
Cayetano,
will
climb
Snowdon
in aid of MABS
Cancer Support
charity.
Donna
first
became
involved with MABS in November 2012 when
she was diagnosed with breast cancer at the
age of 44. She is now a MABS volunteer
herself and wants to give something back.
She says It was a huge shock to be diagnosed
at such a relatively young age and with a 10
year old son it was a very scary time for myself
& Andy, my husband. When you hear the C
word it just scares the life out of you. What if
the treatment doesnt work?
What if I die and leave my son without a
mummy and my husband without a wife?
Will it hurt?
Will I lose my hair?
A thousand other questions spin round in your
head.

ago.
At an Open
Door event I
was asked to
sing a song
(which fortunately I knew) and raised 1000,
as the donor was quite well off. At the time
this equated to 5 Smile operations, so 5
children afflicted with cleft pallets, shunned
by their villages and with little hope in life,
had a new start!! I thought that with just a
simple song sung once, so many childrens
lives could be turned around. I put an idea to
Ken and Carol at Open Door and 2 years later
we have the SMILE CD.

Casa Cerd
A feature of the Plaza de Santo Domingo is
the variety of buildings which surround it.
A modern representative is the impressive
Casa Cerd built between 1934 and 1936. It
is a huge building compared to many nearby
and extends to seven obvious storeys. The
ground floor appears to be occupied by
expensive shops before a first floor with
arched feature windows and doors opening
on to iron railed balconies. At the very top,
there is an open cupola supported by columns
at the front corner of the building. It is also
noticeable how the windows of the middle
three floors project into the square and a side
street over those of the bottom two.
E s c u e l a

On
the
opposite
side of the
road
from

Cerd,
is
the Escuela

P b l i c a
de
Cierva
Penafiel. As
the Spanish
and
English
signboard
o u t s i d e
explains,
this building was constructed in 1909 to the
plans of the prominent architect of the time,
Pedro Cerdn. It is typical of the wave of
school building then, with large windows and
courtyards. It is a sharply angled building,
with the central part of the building having
three
main
storeys.
Casa de Andrs
Almansa
This
is
also
known as the
Colegio de las
Luisas and is
situated at the
corner of the
Plaza de San
Bartolom.
It
is another 20th
Century building
by
Pedro
Cerdn and was
constructed
between
1903
and 1905. Its
Edificio Zablburu
This building is adjacent to the Edificio
Victoria, separated from it by the narrow
Pasaje de Zablburu. It is also next to the
Murcian College of Architects building.
As the explanatory sign outside says, this
strangely named building was constructed
around 1890 by Juan Segundo de Lena. It
has a neo-Mudejar style faade which,
fortunately, escaped the modernization of the
interior which took place in 1990. Again, like

We would like to put on record our thanks
to all those who have helped, so far,
in helping to provide clothing, bedding
and other household items, to poor and
sometimes, homeless people in the

Following a conversation with Fr. Carlos
Prats Redondo, parish priest for the areas
around Caadas de Gallego, Pastrana and

many of his parishioners, we started to put
out requests for the items indicated above.

By unlocking
your mobile
phone,
this
gives
you
more choices
to
use
whichever
company you
want to use.
An unlocked
phone gives
you,
the
consumer, more control of call-plans, pricing,
and other services and allows you the
freedom to easily switch to a different service
provider whenever you want.
Is it legal to unlock a mobile phone?
Yes is the simple answer, even if the mobile is
still within contract.
Is special equipment or adapters needed
to unlock my mobile?
Generally the answer is Yes. However,
some older phones can be unlocked without
the use of this equipment, but all this is used
by Unlocking Agents, such as Don Tcnico.
You dont need to have this equipment.
Will the phone I bought in the UK work
in Spain if I have it unlocked?
Again Yes, because the phone will work
using the SIM card that is inside it. If you
have a Spanish SIM card then that is the
service you will use. The mobile phone will
generally work in most European countries
depending on whether it is dual, tri or quad
band.
I have a brand new, top of the range
mobile phone, can this be unlocked?
Generally it takes the unlocking industry
3-6 months to catch up with the brand new
phones, but after this time it is generally
possible to do so. There may be restrictions
placed on you by your contract. However,
it is fair to say that the phone can still be
unlocked, but you will need to comply with
the terms of your existing contract, i.e. pay
your monthly bill.
the
benefits
of
unlocked
Unlocked
phones
give
consumers more control of
which call plans, pricing,
and services to use and
make carriers work for
you. Unlocked phones give
consumers
the
freedom
to move their SIM card from one device to
another without signing another contract with
a service provider. This means consumers can
easily switch to a different phone or company
whenever they want. This gives them more
freedom if their device breaks or is damaged,
or if they want to upgrade. Some unlocked
phones are sold directly by the manufacturer,
or independent shops such as Don Tcnico,
but not from the service providers.
Sometimes carriers like to alter the phone
to fit certain requirements. These locked
phones can have alternative carrier software,
or have missing pieces of the hardware, such
as WiFi or Bluetooth. Unlocked phones sold
directly by the manufacturer are un-altered
by the carrier and dont have any altered
software or missing hardware.
Why
are
unlocked
phones
more
expensive?
Most mobile carriers require that customers
sign a contract when they purchase a locked
new mobile phone. Companies, such as
Vodafone, subsidize the price of the phone
to make an attractive offer, but require
the customer to sign a contract so the lost
revenue can be made up over the time period
of the contract. Remember also that PayAs-You-Go is a contract albeit without
a specific time period! However, if the
phone is ever broken or lost, the customer
must buy another phone, which the carrier
usually sells for full-price. Unlocked phones
are not subsidized, so they must be sold at
full-price, yet the benefit is that the customer
does not need to sign a contract or contract
extension.

Summer Suggestions
May is here, the month of flowers and
suggestions of summer holidays. Start your
planning with Dragontours.
You will get the best deals ever for your cruise
up the Norwegian Fiords or perhaps around
amazing Iceland, or the Mediterranean.
The summer heat in the Costa Clida can
tax the heartiest of us - let us book a hotel
or apartment for you in the north of Spain.
Galicia or Asturias are delightful green
havens, as well as being renowned for their
delicious gastronomy.

Mazarrns
decision
to
offer
free
admission to
spectators
for this game
certainly
paid off, with
a
bumper
crowd
and
h u g e l y
increased
receipts from
the raffle and
the canteen.
There
were
many
new
faces at the
game
and
it is hoped
that they will return again to support the
team in its efforts to gain promotion back
to the Preferente Division. The squad has
been strengthened by the return of
former captain and central defender
Juan Andreo who made his debut in the
game against Sporting Camposol and
was voted Man of the Match by the Los
Amigos supporters.

Although

with

recent successful results, both in the
SABA and CBBA Leagues, they knew they
couldnt take anything for granted against
a very experienced club like Indalo.
Mazarrn have never won the Presidents
Cup in the previous 8yrs it has been played
for, so with the sun shining and nothing to
lose, the challenge began.

Club de Golf Competition March
The usual end of the month Club de Golf
Competition was not held due to the hollow
tyning and the Avalon Team Trophy was held
instead on Saturday 21st March. The weather
was quite pleasant except for the gusting
wind. There were 104 competitors taking
part, made up of 13 teams of 8 playing a
Singles Stableford with the best 7 cards of the
8 to score. The event took a lot of organising
and most of the hard work was carried out
by the Caddy Master, Steve Dixon. There
were also several Avalon representatives who
helped make the whole day a success. The
results were very close with the two teams
Black Bull and Camposol Golf Association
Ladies Team sharing the same amount of
points, but Black Bull were declared the
winners on count back. There were several
individual prizes as well as the team prizes
from the very generous sponsors Avalon.
