Council admits mistake in sending heavy digger to the site of a historical basilica in San Pedro

:: SUR MARBELLA. The councillor for Cul- ture in Marbella, Gema Midón, has admitted that it was “unwise and an error” to have let a heavy digger on to land immediately adjacent to the ruins of the Vega del Mar Basilica in San Pedro, which dates back to the second century AD. The council plans to create a picnic site on the land. The ruined church is listed as of special cultural interest (Bien de Interés Cultural), and the land around it, which is un- listed, is believed to also have special archaeological importance and is normally fenced off. Recently a complaint reached environmental protection police that the council had allegedly exceeded the permission it had been given by the Junta de Andalucía to clean the ground and was going too far in dam- aging it, especially when the digger became stuck in mud and churned up possible archaeological remains. All sides are now urgently asking the Junta to clarify where the legal bound- ary of the site lies. Marbella council has said it has been transparent throughout the process and will now continue any work on the picnic site manually. 16 March 24th to 30th 2017 NEWS SUR IN ENGLISH

To tackle this problem, firstly the agent which is causing the allergy needs to be identified and then medical treatment is needed to control the symptoms, either guided by a specialist or through vaccines to try to prevent them appearing. Most importantly, though, Edu- ardo says people should try to avoid contact with the allergen.

THE SEVEN DIFFERENCES CLOCKWORD

THE STARS CRYPTIC CROSSWORD Nº 11234 Aquarius January 21 - February 19 A big surge of confidence and optimism washes over the whole week. Take the opportunity to see what is on offer.

Pisces February 20th – March 20th Sometimes you have doubts about your THE WORDPUZZLER capabilities. There is nothing to be gained by being negative..

Aries March 21st – April 20th Emotions and instincts fire each other in what can be a romantic and passionate time, if relaxation is given a chance.

Taurus April 21st – May 21st Let your instincts give a guide when it comes to an everyday situation. Too much imagination can throw your emotions off kilter. Across Down Gemini May 22nd – June 21st Anyone who tries to control you could be in for a shock. Silly distractions will not be tolerated and will be rebuffed.
