Tickled Squirrel Ltd. accepts no responsibility for the services, goods or work provided by any
advertiser. Although we do our best to ensure the content is correct we accept no liability for
errors or omissions. No part of this magazine, in part or whole, may be reproduced without
obtaining prior written permission.

As many readers may know, this is the final issue of El Campello’s only professionally
published ex-pat magazine. It has always been a profitable and completely legal business, and
we have been asked by several people if we'd be interested in selling it. However, we've decided
that should anyone wish to take up the challenge and continue in our footsteps they should be
able to do so with complete freedom; and, because of the fantastic feedback we've had, we hope
someone will copy our style and start a new large format, full colour magazine with affordable
advertising, verifiable distribution numbers, and great content. Hopefully that person, or those
people are out there somewhere - you deserve to have a good, local publication!
Last September (2014) we learned that Mellow Magazine (which we began in 2006 and
ran profitably until 2012 when it was sold) had ended, and so we thought it would be great to come
back to El Campello with a brand new magazine, back to the place where we first met and where
we started the first successful English language ex-pat magazine!
Tickled Squirrel was a hit from day one, and although profits from such a venture are
never going to be very large, we made a comfortable living producing a magazine which many
have said is the only one they read. We avoided pointless jokes and stuck to the successful format
we had previously had with Mellow Magazine – interesting articles and puzzles, well designed
low cost advertisements but this time with cheaper adverts and also no extra charge for full
colour, or for premium advert position.
El Campello is not the same though, and many of our old friends have moved on.The town
itself has become dirtier (it's not just the summer rush), cut backs are obvious in many
places, and our observations have even been echoed by some local businesses . . . in
short, it’s no longer a place we wish to live. This was made even more apparent when
we travelled to the north of Spain in April and then to Andalucía in May. We found both
areas to be nicer, friendlier and cleaner than this part of the country. So we made the
choice to leave here but to go where? Should we go north, south west, or to the
other country we love, Scotland? Our final choice was for Scotland, a country
where the people are friendly, the scenery is breath-taking and the peace
and quiet is almost tangible. Hence we made the decision to make this, the
September issue, the final one.
We thank all our loyal advertisers who have stayed with us through to
this final edition. We thank you, our readers, for your kind words, and
for the fact that so many of you have kept every magazine we have
ever produced. A big thank you also to our contributors past and present
for their wonderful work producing articles that people asked for and
enjoyed every month.
Our very best wishes to you all and perhaps we'll see some of you
when we return on holiday!

MUSIC RAMBLINGS
The World of Podcasting
Around the time OCI Radio was finishing I read
about podcasts. This was going to revolutionise
the way radio operates. I don’t think it has
panned out exactly as was predicted, but it has
altered people’s opportunities to work in radio. I
remember going to a technical expert who told
me I would be wasting my time as it would be
far too technical for me. I sat up the next night
burning the midnight oil and working out how to
make podcasts. It was really just using modern
technology to record programmes of whatever
length you choose to make them and then
loading them onto the internet and making them
available for other people to access.
There is a small amount of technical ability
involved but if I can manage it then most can do
the same. With your own computer and a little
enterprise you can easily make podcasts. There
are even places on the internet where you can
make your programmes online. It is a great way
to get involved in broadcasting and it can open
up a world of opportunities.
Since those first days when I was told it would
be impossible for me, I have continued to find
ways to improve what I do and I now make daily
podcast which are heard in many countries. I
have regular weekly shows which are in place
in America, Bangladesh the UK and other
locations. Instead of having to spend time and
money on negotiating with others who have
different ideas on what is needed I can make my
own decisions and talk to anyone.
It all began when I was in the radio station and
we had absolutely no money to spend on our
part of the radio station. I thought I’d start trying
to contact the international hit-makers and my
first interview was with Gary Puckett who had
the big hit ‘Young Girl’. Gary was a perfect
gentleman and a real pleasure to interview. My
6
second target was the living legend Brenda Lee.
After several weeks of negotiating a convenient
time I eventually caught her as she was buying
ice creams for her grand-daughters in Nashville.
Again, she was a really lovely person to
interview.
I went from strength to strength with such great
names as Chubby Checker, Johnny Tillotson,
Tommy James, Len Barry, and Peter Sarstedt
to mention just a few. Each was proving to be
an absolute pleasure so I branched
out into the world of sport and
spoke with great legends - Sir
Henry Cooper, Sir Stirling
Moss and many giants of
various sports including
Geoff Capes, Terry
Venables and many other
international figures.
I looked at my own
favourites over the years
and arranged interviews
with Coronation Street
stars Johnny Briggs, who
played Mike Baldwin, and
Jean Alexander who was well
known as the character Hilda
Ogden. In various conversations I
got leads to such people as Chesney
Hawkes; and then I turned my attention to
motivational speakers and experts in other
fields of interest. My podcast site is an ongoing
concern and I have now built in a podcast
library. It is an unusual concept but once people
have popped in and clicked on something that
is of interest there can be hours of interesting
material ranging from language learning
opportunities to listening to the celebrities.

Mediterranean Gardens
By Roald Goorman
Fifty shades of Grey.
Kalanchoe beharensis (Felt plant)
With all the different tones of green in the
garden, some other colours could be a
refreshing change, literally so if these colours
are grey/blueish, as these colours are generally
perceived as cool. I will discuss grey leaved
plants that are worth considering if you are
looking for new additions to your garden.
Lavandula sp. (Lavender)
A strange looking shrub from Madagascar, most
plants from Madagascar actually look different!
These plants are easy to grow in pots or in
the garden in open soil, but they need good
drainage and full sun, otherwise they will rot.
They produce large hairy felt-like grey leaves
that are the attraction of the plant, the flowers
are nothing special to mention.
Artemisia (Wormwood)
This well-known versatile shrub looks good in
any setting, as solitary, in groups, interplanted
with roses or in rows lining a pathway. The
English lavender has the most clipped and neat
look, but eventually all Lavenders need a hard
pruning at the end of the summer to keep the
plants from becoming leggy.
Senecio mandraliscae (blue chalk sticks)
An easy shrub that looks good in any plant
border, combine with hot colours (red, orange)
for contrast. There are different species, some
are thirstier than others so experiment with
several and find out which grows best on you.
Tanacetum densum-(Partridge feather)
A great ground cover, the small white flowers
are rather insipid, but the refreshing blueish
grey leaves and stems makes this a great
addition to any succulent garden to fill the
space between larger cactus and other
succulent plants.
16
Another easy
groundcover
and also
fairly drought
tolerant. It
grows on
most soils,
but needs full
sun.

Metrosideros excelsa- (Christmas tree)
A relative of the
Eucalyptus, this
plant from New
Zealand flowers
with bright red
flowers on grey
leaves, which
makes a stunning
contrast! The
flowers appear
midsummer
(which is
December on
the Southern
Hemisphere, hence its common name). If left
unchecked it will grow into a small tree, but it
can be pruned in almost any shape, pruning can
be done anytime of the year but stop pruning
from April onwards, when it starts making flower
buds, else you will miss the bloom.
Bismarckia nobilis- Bismarck palm
This is another plant from Madagascar. This
fan palm forms striking blue grey leaves and
eventually grows huge. The crown diameter can
be up to 7-8 meters, so give it space to grow!
Brahea armata-Mexican fan palm
Teucrium fruticans (Silver Germander)
This timid
shrub with its
small leaves
and small blue
flowers fits in
everywhere. It
can be shaped
of left to grow
wild, in more
formal gardens
they look great clipped neatly in balls, cubicles
or low hedges.
Echium
candicans-
Pride of
Madeira
If you don’t have enough space to grow the
Bismarck palm but still like the look of it, try the
more modest sized Mexican fan palm. They
are also extremely drought tolerant, do not
overwater it, as it will easily succumb to rot, so
keep on the dry side.
A fast growing
short living
shrub, it puts
on a huge
show in spring
with the bright blue flower spikes, the rest of the
year it is a nice grey green shrub that needs no
maintenance apart from raking the fallen leaves
underneath. It grows large in less than 2 years,
so give it some space to grow.

Where a Warm Welcome Awaits You On The Sea Front in Villajoyosa

Are we weighed down?
If we feel low, or depressed who do
we blame? Others?
We pay a great price for holding on
to the pain of resentments and heavy
negativity. Too often, we think of
forgiveness as a gift to other people. It
is clearly a gift to us!
We achieve and have freedom from
many bad feelings only when we
release others from the prison of our minds.
Carrying around resentments does not harm the people at whom we
direct the resentments. These people cannot read our minds. They cannot
pay the price we would like them to pay for things we think they have done
wrong in life. Only WE pay the price for harbouring resentments that are
logged into the past . . . yesterday has GONE! Resentments do not alter
yesterday’s situations; they only harm the person who holds the resentments
today. They steal the joy from this day - a day that we could fill with life and
energy and happiness simply by letting go.
So then, how can we unburden ourselves of heavy, negative resentments so that we can move
forward, traveling light? We can begin by looking at our thoughts and emotions and refusing to
identify with them. By realising that we are the only ones who can let go of these emotions and
start seeing things differently.
Imagine holding a rubber ball, and squeezing it tightly until your hand starts to burn. Like any
thought, the ball is not actually part of you, and it is certainly not YOU. However, the harder you
squeeze the ball, the more discomfort you feel, but if you open your hand, the ball will fall to the
floor.
You can also release your harmful, negative thoughts as quickly as an object held in the hand,
if you choose to do so. Take a deep breath and mentally open your hand. Without judgment or
resistance simply observe thoughts that hold no value for the future. Allow them to be, and allow
them to go. Doing so sets you free to travel light. It grants the freedom and renewed vitality to live
fully today.
In the words of Lewis Smedes (1921-2002), “To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that
the prisoner was you.”
Does that all make sense to you? Does it explain how we can realise the control we have over our
own lives, just by changing the way we think? Someone wrote an excellent book called, “We are
what we think”, and I think that if we take that idea on board we may find that we can move on to
live happier, more balanced lives.
Is anyone on this planet really worth losing your quality of life over? Why allow anything to disturb
your life to an extent that you are not happy? Deal with things that are not the way you want
them to be. Even making mental adjustments if
circumstances cannot be changed your attitude
probably can be! Don’t allow yourself to be
weighed down!
Take care and thanks for reading.

A nurse walks into a bank totally exhausted
after working an 18 hour shift. She grabs a
deposit slip, pulls a rectal thermometer out of
her handbag and tries to write with it. When
she realises her mistake she looks up at the
flabbergasted cashier and, without missing a
beat, shrugs her shoulders and says, " Well,
that's just great ... some asshole's got my pen."

Pachyderms, pachyderms, pachyderms!
I hardly slept that night, waking early at around 5am I
recall. All I wanted was to pack my bags and head to the
pick-up venue but I had 3 hours to fill.
Breakfast consisted of coffee and croissant which were
hurriedly consumed before I ventured along the road to
the offices of the Elephant Nature Park (ENP). This is a
long standing conservation centre for the rehabilitation
of elephants that have been rescued from a life of abuse,
over-work and often as tourist attractions.
About one hour north of the beautiful city of Chiang Mai
is the secluded retreat where elephants can live out their
days as they were intended, free to roam, free from work
and able to socialise in their own herds. ENP is owned
by a diminutive lady called Lek, who along with her
husband founded this sanctuary over 17 years ago.
Through her hard work and fundraising the park is now
home to more than 50 elephants and is spread across
more than 450 acres of jungle and natural clearings. With banana trees a plenty, a fresh water
river running through the centre of the park and jungle encroaching on all sides with the rolling
mountains as backdrop it is pretty easy to say this place is ‘heaven’.
Elephants in Thailand, and most of South East Asia, have a bad record for treatment. Many are
captured young and tortured into submission to their new lord and master, normally through a
process called the ‘phajan’ which entails the elephant being chained in a cage day and night with
no food or water and very little ability to move or lay down. This continues while the master beats
and prods the elephant with hooks and sticks until it ‘learns to do’ what the master orders. Only
after this process can an elephant be made to work; be offered as a tourist attraction offering rides
to paying visitors. The phajan can last for over seven days before the elephant submits to the
torture and obeys.
Lek forbids any ill treatment of the rescued elephants on her park. The herds are free to roam, eat,
play in the river or sleep, although each elephant has a ‘mahout’, a carer to ensure they are looked
after and not put in danger. As a volunteer in the park I had paid to be able to help care for these
huge animals for several days and nights.
There is an instant sense of humility and awe when first standing alongside these beautiful
creatures. In the park there were some elephants rescued from illegal logging companies, from
being abused as tourist traps, and others who were rescued from owners who had blinded them, or
they had suffered injury from landmine explosions in Laos or Myanmar. Every one of the elephants
has a story, including those born on the park and free from having been put through the phajan.
Between 4am and 5am each morning, the sound of heavy footsteps outside my simple but cosy
accommodation is swiftly followed by the trumpeting call of the matriarchs as the herds head off to
the river. Bathing time was amazing as I waded waist deep into the river alongside the elephants of
all sizes and eagerly washed them of the parasites and mud which covered their skin.
My journey through South East Asia was full of amazing and life changing experiences. From
the Tigers and Elephants in Chiang Mai to crossing the famous Mekong River into Laos and an
excursion into the wild jungle of Bokeo Province to live in the treetop canopy 50 metres above

Living In Laos ~ The Life of an Ex-Pat

Please tell our advertisers you saw them in Tickled Squirrel Magazine
the ground and zip-lining 200m over the
rain-forest covered ravines in search of the
rare and near-extinct crested gibbons. It’s
true SE Asia changed my life, but maybe I
was looking for that something to convince
me change was the only thing I wanted.
The journey continued with a 2-day boat
trip down the Mekong to the world-heritage
city of Luang Prabang in Laos, a place
where time has literally stood still. Laos
opened my eyes to the wonders of culture
and civilisation outside of the western
capitalist system. In the sleepy capital city
of Vientiane I could sense the history of
covert CIA operatives sharing coffees with
sympathetic Laos’ natives. Laos will capture
your heart like it captured mine. In Cambodia I was woken up to the harshest forms of poverty
I will probably see, mixed among the delights and mysteries of the stunning Angkor Wat temple
complex, another world-heritage site, now preserved for all of mankind. This is a must see place to
go on everyone’s bucket-list but never forget the atrocities the Khmer people suffered under their
evil- masters of the Khmer Rouge in the mid to late 1970s. Extermination of anyone with intellect,
education or aspiration led to the deaths of over a third of their population in 4yrs, reducing these
kind hearted people from 6 million to under-4 million and effectively wiping out a generation.
It’s been two years now since I migrated to Asia and for over 19 months I have lived and made my
life in Laos. Do I miss the life of the UK? Not at all! I miss friends and family but never forget that
this is a small world, we can reach the other side in about 24hrs. At the end of the day, all we are
searching for is a place we can feel at home, a place we can truly call home. For me, an expat
abroad, living in Laos is this place. This is home. Thank you for following my journey over the past
few months.

Film Review
PG 94 minutes
Who’d have thought that one animation could
provoke so much laughter, so many tears and
such a vast array of splendid imagination?
Inside Out is one of Pixar’s most creative inventions yet, engaging both the younger
and older audiences alike. It tells the story of a world where minds are controlled by
personified emotions; joy, sadness, anger, fear and disgust, and follows the emotional
rollercoaster of a young, ordinary girl called Riley, whose life in the American Midwest is
turned upside down when her dad announces he has a new job in San Francisco.
These emotions decipher Riley’s own emotial state, with Joy doing everything in her
positive power to make every memory a happy one. However, as nothing ever goes to
plan, Sadness literally gets in the way of Joy, forcing the most significant and essential
feelings to get lost in the depth of Riley’s mind, leaving anger, fear and disgust alone in
the forefront.
Inside Out is definitely the animation to watch this year and can be ranked alongside
Pixar’s most loved films such as Toy Story, Finding
Nemo and Monsters, Inc.

read in the editor’s page, this is the final issue. We are taking up new
challenges in the UK. I hope that my comments and notes about technology

Windows 10 - First Impressions on the 29th July
It’s July the 29th and Windows 10 is finally here. My PC seemed as if
it had been busy in the background last night and also this morning.
Around 2pm (Spanish time) I clicked on the little Windows icon by the clock out of curiosity and
found the “business” had been the download of Windows 10. “Would I like to install it now?” was
the question. “It will take a little while to do.” I took the plunge and a little while turned into about
2 hours before the “Getting Started screen appeared. Another half an hour and all was up and
running.
So far I haven’t been able to find anything that isn’t running exactly as it was apart from noticing
speed increases in various apps. Edge, the new browser from Microsoft works well and is
extremely fast. It imported the bookmarks from my Chrome installation (I had to ask it to do this)
and apart from rearranging all the links in the reverse order they still work as they do on Chrome.
It’s a remarkable improvement over IE (Internet Explorer).
I still don’t like the new mail app but have moved over to Mozilla Thunderbird anyway as I found it
better than any of the others I have tried. All its settings remained after the upgrade and nothing
has changed.
The task bar is still there but more useable than before, with active apps having a white underline
rather than a faint box outline. Clicking on the “Start” button brings up a screen with some tiles as
well as recently used apps, settings and a few other options. These can all be configured using the
Settings app.
There has been some discussion about security issues with the new Windows. Microsoft does
collect information about what you do – they say it’s to improve the service they give you, but I
think that’s the nature of the “connected world” that we live in now. There is plenty of information on
the web about security issues on Windows 10 if you wish to read them.
Windows 10 Regular Updates
Windows 10 has been made to frequently update itself and unlike previous versions you cannot
choose when or if this is done. Microsoft’s
reasoning is that users who do not keep their
software up to date risk attacks from malware and
so the option of whether to update or not has now
been taken away. One problem that has hit some
users because of this policy recently was caused
by a faulty update. After failing to install correctly,
Windows rolled itself back to the version before.
But then realised there was an update so tried
to update itself again and so on and so on. Only
some PCs were affected and hopefully such a
thing won’t happen again.

Microsoft Edge
(The New Internet Explorer)
I was looking forward to trying this out and
so far I have not been disappointed by it. In fact I
have been quite impressed. Microsoft have borrowed
quite a lot of good ideas from the likes of Chrome and
Firefox, including the ability to “pull” a tab from the
bar so as to have two completely separate browser
windows. Most people are unaware that browsers have offered this for a while now but as far as
I know Internet Explorer did not. You can change the default search engine to Google instead of
Bing if you wish and that seems to work well.
Office 2016 Preview
I mentioned last month that I had been asked to ‘activate’ the product and that after so doing I was
told that it was licensed until October 2015 rather than the November it had originally said. I was
asked again to activate the program today (8 th August) and have now been told it is licensed until
December 2015. I do wonder when it will actually expire. I will let you know on my blog.
Microsoft Office Online
This is still an excellent (free) option for those who want to legally use MS Office without having to
pay for the software. I have discovered one omission in Excel though, which is the ability to freeze
rows and columns. It would appear that this is on their list of things to do, but for now the online
version will support cells that are frozen using a desktop version, but not allow you to change the
settings. Not a major omission considering the fact it is a genuine product offered for free.
Acer Aspire One Cloudbook
You may have seen in the IT press recently mention of some new laptops from Acer. These come
with Windows 10 but are aimed at the Chromebook market in that they have no hard drives
and are designed to work with apps online. Some of the press have been showing headlines
suggesting that they will be the end of Chromebooks, but I think these articles (and their writers)
might be missing the point. Why might someone buy a Chromebook? Cost is always going to
be a factor, but the fact that they switch on
and are useable in seconds, come with offline
versions of a very respectable word processor, a
spreadsheet etc. and can still run Microsoft Office
online means they are very capable PCs. They
also give you the option to avoid Microsoft which
in itself is enough for some people.
A Windows 10 laptop that has to do most of its
work online might give the user the Windows
experience, but is it worth it? At the moment it
would appear that Acer are only releasing them in
the USA but it will be interesting to see how well
they do when they are available in Europe.

Damn Few And They're A' Deid!
The average Englishman, in the home he calls his castle, slips into his national
costume, a shabby raincoat, patented by chemist Charles Macintosh from
Glasgow, Scotland. En route to his office he strides along the English lane,
surfaced by John Macadam of Ayr, Scotland.
He drives an English car fitted with tyres invented by John Boyd Dunlop of
Dreghorn, Scotland, arrives at the station and boards a train, the forerunner of
which was a steam engine, invented by James Watt of Greenock, Scotland. He
then pours himself a cup of coffee from a thermos flask, the latter invented by
Dewar, a Scotsman from Kincardine-on-Forth.
At the office he receives the mail bearing adhesive stamps invented by James
Chalmers of Dundee, Scotland.
During the day he uses the telephone invented by Alexander Graham Bell, born
in Edinburgh, Scotland.
At home in the evening his daughter pedals her bicycle invented by Kirkpatrick
Macmillan, blacksmith of Dumfries, Scotland.
He watches the news on his television, an invention of John Logie Baird of
Helensburgh, Scotland, and hears an item about the U.S. Navy, founded by
John Paul Jones of Kirkbean, Scotland.
He has by now been reminded too much of Scotland and in desperation he picks
up the Bible only to find that the first man mentioned in the good book is a Scot,
King James VI, who authorised its translation.
Nowhere can an Englishman turn to escape the ingenuity of the Scots.
He could take to drink, but the Scots make the best in the world.
He could take a rifle and end it all but the breech-loading rifle was invented by
Captain Patrick of Pitfours, Scotland.
If he escapes death, he might then find himself on an operating table injected
with penicillin, which was discovered by Alexander Fleming of Darvel, Scotland,
and given an anaesthetic, which was discovered by Sir James Young Simpson
of Bathgate, Scotland.
Out of the anaesthetic, he would find no comfort in learning he was as safe as
the Bank of England founded by William Paterson of Dumfries, Scotland.
Perhaps his only remaining hope would be to get a transfusion of guid Scottish
blood which would entitle him to ask "Wha’s Like Us".
