ALONSO WINS AGAIN!

Sunday 28th September was a special day throughout Spain for fans of Fernando Alonso, who won the first night race Gran Prix in Singapore. Congratulations Fernando and another cup from TESS!


ALONSO was again 1st winning the Japanese Gran Prix on Sunday 12th October.
TESS CUP NUMBER THREE
Surprising to see that The Euro Weekly News, Costa del Sol newspaper, had on it's back page an article about Lewis Hamilton's poor 12th place in the Japanese Gran Prix and yet never mentioned, once, that Fernando Alonso, Spain's former World Champion had gained a 1st place podium with a superb race.!!




4th place for Alonso in China
with Hamilton driving a very fast disciplined race to win. The last race of the championship in Brazil on November the 2nd will be the decider.


We had a Yelmo Cine visit to see the film "Vicky and Christine in Barcelona"
Some of the scenes with Gaudi designed buildings as settings, were stunning.


The TCHAIKOVSKY concert on Saturday 4th October, was the first of the season and a wonderful performance by the Malaga Symphony Orchestra. Followed by the second Tchaikovsky night on Saturday 11th at the Teatro Cervantes, Malaga. Highlighting the cellist Asier Polo.

Our sympathy goes to Fuengirola town for having the worst ever weather during their feria.
Next meeting 24th October, Friday at 11.00 outside Café Central, Plaza Andalucia.

ROMERIA

The rain predicted for Sunday 21st September, held off and the Torremolinos' Romeria was a brilliant procession of horses and riders; decorated carts pulled by oxen, and traditionally dressed crowds. There was drinking and dancing all the way up to the pine forests. Many people had turned out for this special day of the year.
From Wednesday after the official opening the street lights came on and all the plazas had their own marquees with dancing and entertainment.  Throughout the days there were free servings of typical Spanish foods callos ,migas and paella.


Rain again held off for the final flower offering on Monday, 29th of September the Dia de San Miguel . To the drumming of the town bands, the effigy of the Archangel Michael, patron saint of Torremolinos, was paraded around the streets. Accompanied by the Foreign Legion soldiers, performing their devastatingly accurate rifle drills.
