Crazy Fine
by David Darby •
A resident of Motril has complained about his treatment by local police officers who fined him for walking in the road.
Ricardo Romero was completely flabbergasted at what happened as he walked down the very narrow street of Piedrabuena, with his sister.
They had been shopping and had a small ‘pull along’ shopping basket, but the pavement was so narrow that they could not both fit, so Ricardo naturally stepped into the road.
‘Driven’ Book Publication
by David Darby •
As the editor of The Seaside Gazette hard copy, my time is rather limited for any other ventures. However, some seven or eight years ago I wrote a novel, which has been pretty much collecting dust ever since.
Well, the other day I thought ‘if you don’t do something with it now, you never will.’
So, with no proof read or re-write beforehand, I have published it on Amazon Kindle.
It’s a thriller, with the action starting in rural England and ending up here on the Costa Tropical. It was extremely good fun to write and I sincerely hope anyone that reads it gets some pleasure from it as well.

Over a hundred works of art are now on display there, within its 800 sq/m, distributed over two floors. This present display is part of the Ramon Portillo Picture Competition.
