Most people have something which signifies to them that summer is well and truly here; it could be the lighter nights, the swifts and swallows feverishly hunting for suitable nesting spots. Whatever it is, everyone has something. Well here at Casa Euesden it is the unveiling of the Harley – yes that’s right – the Queen of Bling is a closet Biker’s Babe. On Saturday morning the day dawned glorious and Mr E. sprang from the bed (slight exaggeration) leapt downstairs to…
Why do some smells evoke such strong vivid memories? We at Casa Euesden today ate chicken salad for lunch – a good part of our staple diet due to its ease especially at quarter end and also for its low calorific value. However we enjoy the next meal that we make even more – Grandad’s soup, made from the chicken carcass. .My Grandparents were as poor as church mice – we may not have had money for the “leccy meter” however…
Well as another day draws to a close in The Euesden household I take my coffee and four beautiful furry friends outside to enjoy a well deserved break on the terrace. Expecting at this time of the year to see a stunning sunset with a gentle breeze wafting around my not so bronzed barefeet, I am suddenly transported back to a dark dreary March night in Rochdale – it’s freezing out there! The wind is howling – the mist has covered…
Well I cannot believe it and you will probably will not either. This is my FIRST EVER blog – yippeee! I, Michel Euesden, must be the last person in civilisation as we know it who has never blogged. I have BEEN blogged (that’s another story) but I on my own have never ever done it. I am in the words of Madonna – A Virgin – I am a complete novice. Or should I say – I was? Will write…
On Saturday, February 6, more than 200 members of the Mojacar business community attended the official launch of ACEM, the Mojacar business association at the Hotel El Puntazo.

A 35-minute presentation was delivered in Spanish and English by ACEM President Karin Schröter, with the help of Keith Sellers, which explained the principal aims of ACEM, i.e. to promote Mojacar and the surrounding areas, nationally and…
On Saturday, December 19, after a long, hard year of battling their way through the recession, Euro Weekly News publishers Michel and Steven Euesden thanked their dedicated team by treating them to a great Christmas Party. Here’s a selection of photos from the evening:
In 2010 Piers Morgan came to Marbella to film an episode for ITV. Find out what happened when the debonair sophisticated star of Britain’s Got Talent met the formidable passionate and determined girl from Rochdale with her successful husband at their home in Southern Spain. Watch Piers interview Michel and Steven Euesden:
WE in the Euesden household are proud to announce a new addition to the family – young Doris who is a three-month-old Bichon Frise and what a delightful creature she is! As regular readers of the Personally Speaking column know, my best four-legged friend Minnie Me passed away in tragic circumstances over the Christmas period and having never lost a pet before, I did not fully understand the pain and grief her untimely departure would cause. Waves of sadness would…
Everything has to start somewhere and the origins of the company behind The Euro Weekly News are easily pinpointed. After all, we’re not talking the source of the Nile here, but hey – the journey from there to here has not been without its hazards. And anyone with doubts about the Theory of Evolution should give it a second chance after looking at how over the last 12 years the paper has become the largest free English language newspaper in Spain.…
