Catalunya’s new president ‘will cut taxes’ CATALUNYA’S new regional government has announced its intentions to reduce taxes and cut down on the number of public fi gures in high places. Following Artur Mas’ landslide victory last Sunday, his party – the right-wing CiU – says it will ‘move cautiously’ in economic terms in order to ‘create confi dence’ in small and medium-sized companies. This confi dence is ‘vital’ in order to create employment and beat the recession, says CiU’s secretary-general, Josep Antoni Duran i Lleida. The new government also intends to scrap inheritance and succession tax, which it says has already been abolished in certain parts of Spain. “It’s not going to be easy, and it’s not going to be possible without everyone’s best efforts,” Duran i Lleida said in an interview on Punto Radio just hours after his party won a record 62 seats in the regional elections.

Both concerts start at 7pm and entrance is free.

The programme will include community carols, carols and other Christmas songs by the choir and solos from Rosemary Jukic and John Edwards. The accompanist on organ and piano is Ian Henry (of Double Impact fame) who is going back to his church organist roots for these events. Ian studied the organ at St Albans Cathedral and was a classical musician until turning to popu- lar music. He will be performing an organ solo piece at both concerts.

Lush Romantic Decadence El Capricho de la Portuguesa

There are certain places we love to visit because they are cosy; some where the food is sublime; and others where the owners seem to have the knack of know- ing what we want to make our stay enjoyable, even before we do. Some we just take to our heart, and in yearsBy of Derekdoing hotel reviewsWorkman there are few I’ve taken to my heart as I have El Capricho de la Portuguesa.

When Juan José Jimeno and his wife, Silvia Da Silva Braga, fi rst saw the three hundred year-old olive mill in Beniali in Alicante’s Vall de Gallinera, they had to admit that it had been well restored, even though the style was a bit too Colonial for their tastes. The stunning décor, laden with romantic decadence, is the result of the couple’s artistic imaginations, and not that of a professional interior designer.

As Juan José shows me around I’m particularly taken with the gorgeous use of colour and texture; deep green, grey and orange washes on the walls that contain a hint of gold that throws out a subdued sparkle as the light catches it; artfully chosen lamps and big gaudy paintings; beautiful antiques mixed with Ikea’s fi nest; rich striped and brocaded fabrics and delicious Moroccan rugs. El Capricho de la Portuguesa Amongst her many skills, which include designing the best hearing-aid ear piece in Spain, Silvia is a skilled upholsterer, and although she didn’t actually do any Nestling in a mountain village whose of the needlework on the furnishings in the house, she carefully selected the frames of sofas and chairs and, with equal deliberation, chose the fabrics to meandering alleyways take you back upholster them. to ancient Moorish times, El Capri- cho de la Portuguesa transports you Each corner has a surprise tucked away; the inner courtyard with its shaded arbour; the tiny wooden door that leads into yet another exquisite bedroom; the from the every-day to a world of ro- tented roof terrace with views across the village to the mountains beyond; but mantic decadence. I’m presented with the piece de resistance when we walk down a short cob- bled path inside the house and I step into a hydro-jet spa, with a jacuzzi and a domed, circular underground swimming pool. A surprise is tucked away in very corner; the inner courtyard with its “When we bought the house we didn’t know what to do with the pozo, the stone shaded arbour; the tiny wooden door storage tank for the oil, or the two rooms on a slightly higher level in which that leads you into yet another exqui- the animals were kept and the oil stored.” Juan José tells me. “Unfortunately there was a thick wall between them, but we didn’t know how thick it was until site bedroom; the tented roof terrace we started digging away with a jack-hammer.” It turned out to be almost three with views across the village to the metres of solid rock and back-breaking toil, but the result is stunning as you mountains beyond; the hydro-jet spa, look down the arched steps to the circular pool below and the glistening water changing from green to blue to red and back again. with a jacuzzi and a domed, circular underground swimming pool, where I’m shown to the Al-Azraq room, the name taken from the infamous Moorish you can just drift away to the music leader who hailed from the nearby Val de Alcalà, and who died under the walls of Xàtiva Castle.
