KEEP A COOL HEAD
Why now is a good time to invest in Spain
Project: Ride by bicycle and motorbike from the French border to
Gibraltar
Dates: September 2nd-14th 2013
Aim: to raise money for Children in need and Spanish orphanages
Project: two riders, Ed Sadleir and Dave Bull will ride the distance using
bicycles and a motorbike; linking pre-planned events in major expat-
populated areas that are timed for the riders arrival and that are raising
monies for the chosen charities the all along the coast of Spain.
Why?
Having lived in Spain a good number of years and integrated into the
life the two families, who both spend time helping people to enjoy their
life in Spain, decided it was about time we expats showed our hosts just
what we are capable of when we put our minds to it.
Bull Ride
Lisa Sadleir, the brains (and the driving force behind the idea) has put
together a project to involve expats throughout Spain in raising money
for the two very worthy causes and one that will be eagerly anticipated
by foreigners and Spanish as they await the arrival of the two riders into
their town following the latest leg of the adventure.
There is expected to be healthy and fun competition too between the
towns chosen to hold events along the coast with the one raising the
most money for the causes securing the bragging rights for the foresee-
able future.
The two men taking on the challenge, Ed Sadleir a keen cyclist and
windsurfer, and Dave Bull, ex-motorcycle racer and now a cyclist in
training!
Ed, who is 42 and lives in Mijas, will be the lead cyclist while Dave will
be in charge when they opt to use the motorbike (on some of the longer
legs they will use the motorbike to save time and complete the challenge
in 12 days).
Family in Spain has for a long time now looked after the needs of expats
and from their base in Mijas they have been active in recent years orga-
nising fun days and assisting locals when necessary - mention fires
Dave, who is 46 and from Alicante, has run a magazine providing expats
with information and advice for the past eight years and last year began
the Bull Ring, which is a project not unlike BBC’s Dragons Den where he
takes a team of businesspeople to schools and gets the students to pres-
ent their projects in the hope that one of the businesspeople will take
the idea on - which they normally do.
The Charity
Family Bull
Ride is also
the ideal
platform
for the Bull Ring to be promoted up and
down Spain with the anticipation of many local projects in schools
and colleges involving local business people being set in motion with one
specific aim; to give youngsters as much help and as many tools as they
can to head out into the world of industry, whichever that may be.
Information on the Bull Ring can be found on the Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Bull-Ring/209747129079672
Events
The events along the coast will be organised by local coordinators who
have already been chosen for their superb organisational skills and of
course their sense of humour! Events will be varied but expected to be
along the lines of family fun days and town fairs that will be organised
for the day (and time) of the two riders arrival in the town.
After accepting a well-earned refreshment the two riders will h*then
head off on the next leg of the ride, to the next town and the next
event.
Dave told us, ‘With Spain not having seen anything like this before and
with already a huge amount of interest from both the Spanish and UK
media the Charity Family Bull Ride looks like becoming one of those
events that everybody wants to be involved in and the more the better
because the more people that can help out, come along, raise some
cash, do a little busking..the better! Anything...just help us raise some
money for unfortunate kids in Spain and abroad by doing something in
your town.’
If you are interested in putting on an event and helping raise some
money for when the riders arrive in your town - keep checking the
Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/CharityFamilyBullRide for
updates about when and where things are going on.
The team also have a wish list and sponsor packages (of differing levels
of commitment) and would like anyone serious about getting involved
in this multi-national project to take a look at the Facebook page to see
how they can help out, whether in a small way or big- we need and ap-
preciate anything that people will do to help us help the innocent kids of
the world.

A number of articles have been published about this issue recently. And a lot of confusion is reigning as usual when a new law is imple-mented and new tax regulations are put into practice.
In order to combat tax evasion a law was passed on 29th of October 2012 and is to carry heavy fines to ensure fulfilment.
All assets worldwide of a resident have to be declared to the Spanish tax authorities in a special declara-tion. Originally, the deadline was to be 31st March 2013. Since this year is the first year in which the said declaration has to made, an approved declaration form is still not available from the tax authori-ties and the deadline has been ex-tended. As an exception, the dec-larations for 2012 have to be made between March and April of 2013.
It has always been the tax obliga-tion of any resident to declare their worldwide income in the country of residency, in this case Spain. This applies to interest payments, rental income, etc. In most cases, this ob-ligation was taken very losely. With this new declaration, a resident is to make a self-declaration of all his
assets, detailing all bank accounts, properties and rights on properties situated outside of Spain, certain insurances, etc.
If your worldwide assets exceed 700.000,- Euros you will be liable to pay wealth tax (impuesto de patrimonio) in Spain. And the in-come generated from those assets abroad, such as interest, rental income, etc. will be taxed in your annual income tax declaration (im-puesto de renta).
The final regulations, such as fines, etc., were to be published in the BOE on the 31st January. Unfor-tunately they were not available at the time of putting this article in the press. In the next edition I will in-form you about the newest in this matter. Seminars will be held at the be-ginning of March. The date and location will be published on my webpage once available and also mentioned in next month’s edition.

It´s ironic isn´t it? Here I am writing an ar-ticle about the power of the press in (pos-sibly) influencing our decisions when they put a certain slant on an article to at-tract, and keep, interested readers´ atten-tion. And I’m just about to ´interest’ you in my side of things…well not exactly my side of things but a look at how things re-ally are in Spain, and in particular in the much talked about property market.
Spain has its problems, that’s for sure, but attracting tourists and expats is really not one of them and although the govern-ment has a headache (or two) trying to balance the books, the story for most in Spain is much the same as before, good weather, a good life and plenty of activ-ity up and down the Costas in the form of buyers, sellers and new projects being started (and sold out) every day.
Opportunities
Don´t get me wrong, I’m not painting a picture through rose-tinted specs here,
there are not thousands of jobs available as there were a few years ago, but there are opportunities. And for those who are ready to grab their new life with both hands and ´have a go´ at perhaps build-ing or running a business then I honestly believe there are few better places for the creative mind to achieve success.
However, for those coming to relax and enjoy either retirement or a second home, again there a few clouds in the sky (literally) as property values are at a very reasonable level with a good choice of second hand homes on the market offer-ing great value for money to for buyers coming from abroad. As we know most European countries are not in a reces-sion and that is where the Spanish prop-erty market is still strong. I´ll agree right now that the volume of buyers from the UK has dropped a little since the ́ Boom´ - but that is why it is called a Boom – a peak in the market. But Spanish properties still sell very well in the UK in 2012 and now
the Scandinavians, the Dutch, the Ger-mans and more are making the move to Spain because they know that right now they will get great value for money and a home in one of the healthiest locations in the world – the Spanish Costas!
If you can, make the move now
The main thing to remember is the same rule applies as to most places in the world. If you want to live away from the ´Madding Crowd´ (thanks Thomas) you´ll find cheaper, larger properties in plentiful supply, but, if you are looking for cool sea breezes and a life on or near the coast, my advice (and I have no connection to property sales in Spain) is to get in now, while the prices are good and properties are available – but they are going fast. In the 18 projects constructing new proper-ties within 25 kilometres of my office well over 70% are already sold.Don’t miss out on a life in Spain…you won’t regret it!
keepingA COOL HEADin Spain
Why now is exactly the right time to invest in a property in Spain.

Wanting to do something on Sunday but
not knowing exactly (or roughly) what
I wanted to do I asked my contacts on
Facebook for some ideas and immediately
Lesley Heyes and Michael Allhoff came up
with a couple of good ones. The stamp fair,
which is more accurately an antiques fair
was Lesley’s suggestion while Michael of-
fered up the Isla Marina Beach Club for a
relaxing visit (and drink) afterwards. Both
appealed, so off I headed, stopping on the
way like a weary traveller at the Chill Out
Bar in Urbanova. Ok I’d only be driving
eleven minutes but you never know what
lies ahead so I work on getting (and keep-
ing) my caffeine levels near the brim, so
to speak. And anyway who’s going to be-
grudge me a breakfast of toast and coffee
on the beach?
Refreshed and recharged I was ready to
take on the rest of the journey (another
eleven minutes) and head for Alicante Town
Hall, the site of my first suggested visit –
The Stamp Fair. I parked easily because I’m
extremely smart and ride a scooter into the
city but if you must go by car, parking isn’t
too much of a problem, and the two car
parks alongside the port (after Panoramis
shopping centre) are rarely if ever full, and
both are only a short walk from the town
hall.
From the port cross over near the foun-
tain on the roundabout and you’ll find the
town hall (ayuntamiento) in the first road
back from the coast (if you find yourself
at the Sex Shop, you’ve gone way too far
this time…) but you really can’t miss it and
even some of the local Spaniards can offer
half-decent directions.
The setting, for what is not just a stamp
fair is, welcoming with at least two terrace
cafes spreading their tables and chairs into
the old courtyard. Standing proudly oppo-
site is one of the finest town halls in the
region and the whole square gives you that
feeling of being somewhere not only differ-
ent but historical too.
Tall shuttered French windows and flower
boxes line the upper floors of the surround-
ing buildings while below, underneath the
arches, Bud Flannagan and Chesney Allen
were entertaining tourists. They obviously
weren’t, I just couldn’t help it when I got
to that bit… Lining the walls of the arched
walkway were stalls with just about any-
thing from roman coins and musical instru-
ments to hand crafted wares and what I
can only be described as knick-knacks (that
covers it). Plenty of willing buyers too along
with the ‘window-shoppers’ filled the nar-
row gap between facing stalls but the cool
location and the nearby water fountains
meant the atmosphere was comfortable
and unrushed. I’m guessing it’s called the
Stamp Fair because that is how it started
out but these days it has evolved into a
good collector’s heaven.
It’s not huge, in fact it’s fairly small with
possibly no more than 40 stalls but it’s
worth a good hour wandering around and
then of course resting up at one of the
courtyard bars to partake in a little people
watching.
From there it was a short hop on the scooter
(about a kilometre in the direction of Valen-
cia) along the seafront to Isla Marina Beach
Club, and if you’ve not been; go soon, and
take your visitors to impress them. Located
right on the edge of the Med’ right in the
middle of the bay the views are superb
across to gran Alacant and in the opposite
direction up to San Juan. Dress in all white
if you go as that’s the unwritten rule with
beach bars, although I always end up look-
ing like a bowler when I do it.
There’s lots of space with chill-out areas,
a pool, restaurant and at least three bars
that I saw, plus bean-bags offer extra seat-
ing on the lawn (yep, real stuff too) but
the best is for last and that’s the white so-
fas that sit about six feet from the water’s
edge. ‘living the life’ or just on holiday you
have to get to this place at least once and
sample all that is so good about an evening
(or day) at a place like Isla Marina. Having
told you how good it is, you’ll be thinking,
‘that’s not gonna be cheap…’ and you’d be
right but if you’re going to treat anyone (in-
cluding yourself) why not indulge in a few
hours on white sofas, alongside the Med
with waiter and waitresses all far too good
looking brining you your favourite cocktail
(ok fellas) or lager…
There’s plenty of free parking down there
too so if you’re driving just follow the coast
road through Alicante and then when the
right hand lane rises above the road (sign-
post Valencia) stay in the middle lane and
look for the signs very soon on the right.
Failing that, if you can’t find it invite me
along and I’ll happily show you where it is…
so long as you’re buying the drinks…?
ATTRACT From antiques to ‘Enya’ by-the-sea…
IN ALICANTEDave Bull followed the suggestions of a couple of readers to head into Alicante and rummage around at the antiques fair
before crossing time (and a very busy road, on his own…) and discovering just one of the things that is so good about
modern Alicante.. the Beach Club.

Well happy New Year to you all and I
hope you all have had a good few weeks
of fun and entertainment and that you
have finally finished off all the turkey lol.
January is always a quiet month here on
the Costa’s as everyone gets over the
festive season but there is still quite a
fair amount of great entertainment hap-
pening around the areas, but a great
thing about January is that it hosts a
number of brilliant Pantomimes in many
towns a good one to go and see is The
Wizard of Oz happening on January 9th
at The Careline Theatre in Alcalali but I
think my favourite this month will be Dick
Whittington performed by the Rojales
pantomime Group to be held on Janu-
ary 18th & 19th at the Escuela De Musi-
ca in Los Montesinos both dates doors
open at 7pm with a Matinee also on the
19th, this group raise a lot of money for
charities around the local area and have
kindly given me 2 free tickets for Friday
nights performance to give away to you

do to win this pair of tickets is to send

the following question :- In the
panto the Dame will be singing

‘Man I feel like a woman’ all I

Funnies...It was hard getting over my addiction to the Hokey Cokey. But Ive turned myself around and thats what its all about.
Paddy caught his Wife having an affair and decided to kill her and himself. He puts the gun to his head, looks at his Wife and says “Don’t laugh, you’re next!!”
An Irishmen wanting to become a Priest went to see the Bishop who said “You must an-swer 3 questions on the Bible”.“1st - Who was born in a stable?”“Red Rum” he replied“2nd - What do you think of Damas-cus ?”“It kills 99% of all germs” he re-plied.“3rd - What happened when the dis-ciples went to Mount Olive ?”“Thats easy” he said “Popeye kicked the shit out of them!!”
Little boy gets home from school and says “Dad, I’ve got a part in the school play as a man who’s been married for 25 years.”His Dad replies “Never mind Son. Maybe next time you’ll get a speaking part!!”
Two Irishmen looking through a mail order catalogue.Paddy says “Look at these gorgeous women! The prices are reasonable too.”Mick agrees “I’m ordering one right now”3 weeks later Paddy says to Mick “Has your woman turned up yet?”“No” said Mick “but it shouldn’t be long now though. Her clothes arrived yesterday!!
In hindsight I should have posted my Facebook status as: “I’ve blown the head gasket on my 1997 XR3i” rather than “I’ve just buggered a 14 year old escort”.
The police still haven’t seen the funny side, my lap top’s been confiscated, and the wife has gone off to her mother.
FISCAL CLIFF...PUT IN A MUCH BETTER PERSPECTIVE..
Lesson # 1:
* U.S. Tax revenue: $2,170,000,000,000* Fed budget: $3,820,000,000,000* New debt: $ 1,650,000,000,000* National debt: $14,271,000,000,000* Recent budget cuts: $ 38,500,000,000
Let’s now remove 8 zeros and pretend it’s a house-hold budget:
* Annual family income: $21,700* Money the family spent: $38,200* New debt on the credit card: $16,500* Outstanding balance on the credit card: $142,710* Total budget cuts so far: $385
Got It ?????OK now,
Lesson # 2: Here’s another way to look at the Debt Ceiling:
Let’s say, You come home from work and findthere has been a sewer backup in your neighborhood....and your home has sewage all the way up to your ceiling.
What do you think you should do ......
Raise the ceiling, or remove the shit?
Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?
Why do people run over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it and then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?
Why is it that no plastic bag will ever open from the first end you try?
How do those dead bugs get into the enclosed light fix-tures?
‘aving a laugh...

1.Six men, whose names are Fred Al-berts, Larry Smith, Brian Martin, Marty Jones, Bill Edison, and John Fox were in an elevator together. Suddenly, the lights went out. When the lights came back on, Fred Alberts was found stabbed. Other detectives have investi-gated. They have questioned the sus-pects, the witnesses, and people who know the suspects. They have collected physical evidence (hair samples, fibre samples, etc.) from the crime scene. They have collected 14 clues, but have not been able to solve the crime. There-fore, they have called in the world’s greatest detective, YOU. You must now examine the clues and solve the mur-der.
No two suspects have the same weight, colour shoes, colour umbrella, colour car, or hair colour.The suspect who owns a purple car was wearing tan shoes.The suspect who weighs 180 pounds owns a green car.Brian Martin owns a green car.The suspect who owns a black car was wearing blue shoes.The suspect who weighs 150 pounds was wearing tan shoes.Marty Jones was carrying a purple um-brella.John Fox has red hair.Larry Smith weighs 210 pounds.The suspect who weighs 190 pounds was wearing blue shoes.The suspect who was carrying a red umbrella is not the one who was wear-ing black shoes.The murderer owns a black car.The suspect who owns a white car is not the one who weighs 170 pounds.Bill Edison was wearing brown shoes.The suspect who weighs 190 pounds is not the one who has red hair.
It's a toughy! It's EASY!
SOLUTIONS:
1.Answer: Marty Jones: We can rule out Fred from our investigations as he was the victim. Brian Mar-tin owns a green car. The murderer owns a black car, so Brian Martin is not the murderer. The suspect who owns a black car was wearing blue shoes. The suspect who weighs 190 pounds was wearing blue shoes. The suspect who weighs 190 pounds is not the one who has red hair. Therefore, one suspect
was wearing blue shoes, owns a black car, weighs 190 pounds, and is not the one who has red hair. But Bill Edison was wearing brown shoes, John Fox has red hair, Larry Smith weighs 210 pounds, and Brian Martin owns a green car. Therefore, the only suspect who could be this suspect is Marty Jones. Since this suspect, Marty Jones, owns a black car and the murderer owns a black car, he is the murderer.

HAVE THEY PICKED WELL IN THE TRANSFER WINDOW?
Teams have made their late transfers and they’re stuck with these
players until the end. But have they made the right choices?
In terms of positions in the Premier League, not much has changed around
the top of the table (as of 28th January). Despite beginning to stabilize
their results, Chelsea find themselves in 3rd position and eleven points
off Manchester United at the top, and six behind United’s cross-city rivals,
Manchester City. With two of the three out of the Champions League and
all three of them entirely focused on taking British football’s top prize, we
should see an exciting finale to this year’s Premier League.
The bottom of the table has changed somewhat. QPR have hit some good
form and with a few quality players coming in they have high hopes of
surviving this season. It seemed an impossibility only a few weeks ago,
yet now many would bet on a QPR survival. Even so, they sit in 20th place.
Newcastle and Aston Villa find themselves in freefall. The two historic Eng-
lish sides are dangling just above the relegation zone. Newcastle have
made full use of the transfer window by signing several top-quality French
players, but Aston Villa may find themselves in the Championship if nothing
changes soon. They need a signing!
Arsenal and Liverpool are building up again and new Liverpool striker Dan-
iel Sturridge has been a sensation, scoring in his first three games for the
club. He and Luis Suarez seem to be building a brilliant partnership that is
causing opposition all sorts of problems. Arsenal have been led by an in-
form Theo Walcott and the silky skills of Spaniard, Santi Cazorla. They find
themselves in sixth place with a chance of Champions League qualification.
Everton too find themselves in a good position, and they will also be hopeful
of playing for Europe’s top prize next year.
The transfer market has been intriguing this year, with most teams making
much needed additions to their squads. Demba Ba was a brilliant signing
for Chelsea, and I have already mentioned Newcastle, QPR and Liverpool.
Manchester United’s signing of Wilfried Zaha should be interesting as the
young winger has been tipped to be a future star. West Ham’s signing of Joe
Cole has paid instant dividends and Tottenham have done well to sign Lewis
Holtby, who is a mercurial talent.
One of the big talking points recently was Eden Hazards ‘kick’ at a ball-boy
during a match against Swansea. At the time of writing, the FA have an-
nounced they will give a longer ban than the three games and Chelsea have
confirmed they will fight against it. Both Hazard and the ball boy were in the
wrong, but does it really merit anything more than a three-game ban. The
17-year-old had said before the game that he planned to waste time and
then sat on the ball with minutes remaining. Hazard shouldn’t have gone
over. He did kick out at the boy, barely, but a three game ban should be
sufficient. In Chelsea’s point of view, it would be detrimental to their season
should the lively winger miss more than the three games, as their reserve
winger, Marko Marin, has not looked up to Chelsea’s standards when given
a chance this season.
The Premier League is always full of stories and controversy, but that is
what makes this league the best ever. Nobody will forget last year’s last
minute finish, where Sergio Aguero won the Premier League with pretty
much the last kick of the season!
Catch you all later as in February as the race heats up!
