This Sunday our lives will jumbled around because of a pointless hour-change system, inducing a mini jet-lag into our circadian rhythm when 03.00h flips back to 02.00h and suddenly its dark at seven in the evening.
All this talk about dropping the hour change twice a year remains hot air, it appears, because this Sunday the clocks go forward.
You had better hurry because you have until this coming Sunday (the 9th) to view the photo exhibitions that are set up in the Municipal Library of Salobreña with the subject of the Desbanda in 1937.

The Marcha Solidaria por la libertad del Pueblo Saharaui,” organised on a nationwide level, made its presence felt in Salobreña yesterday morning.
In the days of the Franco regime in Spain, Motril awarded a gold medal to the dictator. However, many have called for this honour to be withdrawn… now that you can’t be shot for doing so.
