Court Summons Update - Corte española Citación de actualización

I  still don't know what's going on with the Spanish legal courts system; I  didn't go to court when I  was summoned because I  didn't get the summons, this sis because I  live in England and they sent the papers to Spain, they know I  live in England, I am treated and taxed as a non resident, (in Spain non residents pay higher bank charges etc.). My solicitor doesn't know what the summons is about, and the courts are on holiday at the moment so nobody can find anything out
I  don't know if I  will be arrested for failing to shop up at court, nobody seems to know, but it means I  have to pay the mortgage and maintenance on a property that I  cannot go to in case I  am arrested
As I  said before, I  don't understand how I  can prepare my legal defence in Spain if I  don't know what I'm being accused of. I'm pretty sure it's an error on the Spanish legal systems fault, I  feel this because
1/ I'm a law abiding  person
2/ I  haven't been in Spain so it's difficult for me to comment an offence there
3/ There paperwork lags behind real life, so I  guess it's about my Bankinter incident, or non payment of bills whilst I  was in hospital, all of which were fixed over a year ago
4/ If it was something serious or factual, they surely would have pursued my prosecution in England

I  have invested hundreds of thousands of Euro in Spain in the past. Two houses, Two cars, Two motorbikes, and had dozens of friends come out tot see me there for a holiday, spending money in the bars and restaurants, helping the economy

In any case, this is not encouraging people to buy property of vehicles in Spain, and hence very little investment in Spain in the future.

Having said all this, I  like Spain, I  wish the issues could be fixed, I  would like to have my holidays there, and live there one day

Yo todavía no sé lo que está pasando con el sistema español de tribunales legales, no me vaya a la corte cuando fue convocado porque no he tenido la convocatoria, este sis porque yo vivo en Inglaterra y me mandaron los papeles a España , ellos saben que yo vivo en Inglaterra, me tratan y pagar impuestos como un no residente, (en España los no residentes pagan mayores comisiones bancarias, etc.) Mi abogado no sabe lo que la citación se acerca, y los tribunales están de vacaciones en el momento en que nadie puede encontrar nada

No sé si voy a ser arrestado por no ir de compras en la corte, nadie parece saber, pero eso significa que tengo que pagar la hipoteca y el mantenimiento de una propiedad que no puede acudir en caso de que me arresten

Como he dicho antes, no entiendo cómo puedo preparar mi defensa legal en España, si no sé lo que estoy siendo acusado. Estoy bastante seguro de que es un error en la falla de los sistemas jurídicos español, me siento porque

1 / Yo soy una persona respetuosa de la ley

2 / No he estado en España, así que es difícil para mí comentar un delito no

3 / No papeleo va a la zaga de la vida real, así que supongo que se trata de mi incidente Bankinter, o falta de pago de las facturas mientras yo estaba en el hospital, todos los cuales fueron fijadas hace un año

4 / Si se trata de algo serio o de hecho, seguramente habría seguido mi juicio en Inglaterra


Me han invertido cientos de miles de euros en España en el pasado. Dos casas, dos coches, las motos de dos, y había docenas de amigos salen tot verme allí de vacaciones, el gasto de dinero en los bares y restaurantes, ayudando a la economía


En cualquier caso, no se trata de animar a la gente para comprar la propiedad de vehículos en España, y por lo tanto hay muy poca inversión en España en el futuro.


Habiendo dicho todo esto, me gusta España, quiero los temas podría ser fijo, me gustaría tener mis vacaciones allí, y vivir allí un día

NHS Waiting times

Whilst I  appreciate that times are hard, and that I  recently had an operation funded by the NHS, I  had waited three years for the operation and had incredibly little follow up support, I  have to return to hospital in Plymouth in six weeks time, but in between times, I  get no information about how my recovery and symptoms are likely to be, so I  phoned my GP about the pain when I  pee; they say it's normal, so why don't they tell you that when you leave hospital ? it would save a lot of the Dr's time and the patients worry.
Anyway I  have always said that hospitals are geared round the Dr.'s and nurses, I  seriously think that very little thought has been given to patients / sick people.
After I  was discharged prematurely from hospital and made into a day patient, I  had to return to hospital the next day, I  had the operation because of my neck I  cannot stand or sit for very long, so here I  am in the middle of August in  the hottest part of the UK, the waiting room is very hot with little or no ventilation and a note on the window saying DON'T open the window, (pigeon problem); so why can't they have air conditioning like in the nurses quarters ? OR mesh on the window to stop the pigeons ? I  don't understand. Obviously an NHS employee has not spent any time in the "waiting room", to make it extra torture there is a water machine in the corner of the stifling hot room, but it's broken. I  sat there for two and a half hours while nurses read OK magazine and showed total lack of interest in my discomfort, The chairs were dirty with no support, the wait was very uncomfortable. It would be illegal for the NHS to expect their staff to work in those conditions, but it's OK to let sick and paying people sit in the waiting room and rot.
Even looking at the flowers in the room indicate total lack of care and interest and encourage people to prey for death.

As I  said, I  have had one operation after waiting for three years, but I'm still waiting to see my local specialist for my stomach pains, I  was referred on 27th May, I  got an appointment a month ago, but the hospital cancelled,  (something cropped up), to be fair it was an ideal golfing day, but they say because it was cancelled (albeit by them) I'm at the back of the Queue .

They already told me that my neck wont ever be good, because it took three years before the operation there is some permanent damage; will they eventually tell me my stomach problem is now serious and cannot be fixed because it took so long for them to see me.

I  think they want some patients to die or become incurable whilst waiting for treatment, this saves money and I  read about it in the papers recently

Gaddafi - Tripoli

 I 'll probably disappear or have an accident myself for writing this, but  I  don't understand.

I  don't want this blog to be about politics or religion but  I  have asked around my extended circle of friends and contacts and nobody else seems to understand either.

Why is the media so excited about the Libyan people overthrowing their leader, Gaddafi? whether the rest of the the world thinks he is crazy or not, is not the point, he has been president for 42 years, hardly the work of a crazy man. I'm not particularly for Gaddafi, in fact I never met the guy, but it seems that the world is against him because we don't agree with him, I  don't see as it's anybody else's business.

Of course millions of Libyian people want him removed from power, but also millions don't, it's also true to say that plenty of people, especially students don't want Cameron in power, so how would we feel if NATO supported the student riots ? Sorry guys,  I  don't see the difference.

Really the same goes for Egypt, etc. are we now in favour of anarchy ? or is it just a dual standards thing

 I  don't understand

Stitches Out

I saw the nurse yesterday and had my stitches out, she seemed amazed too and went to fetch another just to look, anyway they came out OK, so  I  feel better now, still not sure if the pain is still from my Dystonia or from the normal tissue damage caused during surgery
On the way out of the clinic  I  bumped into my Dr. (G.P.), it was not planned, but  I  told him after 3 years  I finally had the operation, he said he knew, said my stitches were enormous and left, he did not seem very interested.  I  guess the become nonchalant after dealing with sick people all of the time, but  I  thought that's why they got paid the big money

Stitches

well, it's a week since my operation, not much to say so far, but that is as expected;  I  am not sure of how much movement improvement  I  have achieved as a result of the operation because my body is aching and bruised from the operation, but that's OK, it will change

Today is exciting,  I  will be more comfortable because my stitches are being removed

Operation

Well I had the operation last Thursday, not Wednesday as planned, and I'm in a half way house hospice near the the hospital, the operation was tough for me, and the surgical team, 10 hours in surgery :-(

I have been told I can go home on Thursday, I now have lots of Physiotherapy before I will feel much benefit from the operation

Surprise call

I got a surprise call this morning, the hospital have moved my operation forward, to this Wednesday :-), amazing, so hopefully my next update will be post opp and the pain will have gone and I can resume my life

unexpected favor

Have you every had someone do an unexpected favour for you? If you have, I bet it made your day.

Can you think of a way you could help someone in your life in an unexpected way? If so, take a moment and put that on your to do list or better yet just go do it. I doubt you'll regret it.

GP Appointment / Hospital delays

 I  wanted to make an appointment to see my GP, to update him on my latest hospitals indefinite cancellation of my long awaited appointment, but he's on holiday, fair enough. So  I  thought  I  would make an appointment for when he returns, BUT the receptionist tells me that he has four appointments already booked for his return and he left instructions saying that was the most he would see after his return as he does not want to be busy when he starts back after his holiday.


That's wonderful,  I  wish we could all do that, have three weeks holiday and then come back and take it easy, most people come back to work and have  abacklog causing extra work, and a need for another holiday.

 I  guess the hospitals have a similar philosophy and hence the long waiting lists and high rate of cancelled appointments

Hospital appointment delay

Leicester hospital phoned and cancelled my appointment to see a specialist, they cancelled the day before the appointment even though I had waited two month since the referral from my GP, I asked about a new appointment and they said they would be in touch, having not heard anything for a week or so I called them about a new appointment, they weren't too concerned, they just said that it would be a few months away because my previous appointment had been cancelled; even though it was them that cancelled it.

This is unbelievable, especially as they are saying the goal is to see every body from GP to treatment with sixteen weeks.

Hospital cut backs

I got an email late yesterday from my surgeons secretary, she was just telling me that she is concerned because there are nine of her at the moment and they have been told that there will need to be only four from next month, she does not know if she will be one of the five to be put out on the streets. It just seems crazy that we are cutting operations and increasing waiting time to the extent that one in six die (or go privately) whilst waiting and yet we are the "world police" getting involved in civil wars all over the world. I don't understand it, and nobody has been able to explain to me why we do this
