FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Murcia and Alicante have seen huge growth in the golf industry over the last 10 years and French Production Company, ‘Les Films D’ICI’ will be reviewing the huge impact that this growth has had on these two neighbouring regions of Spain.
One of the local experts being interviewed as part of this ‘golfumentary’ is Torrevieja-based golf-columnist, coach and author Michael Probert who wrote a book earlier this year entitled, ‘The Golfing Guide to Murcia’.
Michael says, “Some 20 years ago there were only 3 golf course in total but the golf craze has resulted with 16 courses in Murcia and 18 in Alicante with significantly more currently under construction.”
Michael Probert is considered by many to be a local expert in the golf industry in the area and has been asked to take a pivotal role in the filming of the documentary which begins in September.
There will be many topics raised during the filmed interviews and these will include:
- golf course pricing strategies
- the impact of the current world financial crisis on residents, tourists and golfers alike
- golf course reviews and the best courses
- plus what differences golfers find in playing golf here in Spain in comparison with their home country
The film itself is not just a commercial advertising film but a detailed documentary outlining the phenomenal impact of golf (both negative and positive) in the area.
~~~
“Golfing Guide to Murcia: an insider’s guide to the best golf on Spain’s Costa Calida” ISBN 1-905430-55-8 by Michael Probert is available to buy from www.amazon.com, www.amazon.co.uk and all good bookshops.

PRAISE FOR THE BOOK
“I always read Mike’s articles in the local newspapers and magazines and he has always been a difficult and knowledgeable opponent in our league matches and it is for these reasons that we approached him to be our official press officer for the Murcian Matchplay league and I believe that this book will be invaluable to both tourists and residents alike.”
- Alex Mclennan, Secretary, Murcian Matchplay League
“Mike Probert has written for the Leader Newspaper for 3-4 years on a number of sport and golf related subjects during which time I have always found his articles to be well researched and informed. He has simplicity of style which makes him extremely popular amongst our readers. His articles always have something useful to say. I believe that if he embarks on a book aimed at people wishing to visit and play golf in the Murcian region it will quickly be become a comprehensive guide and a ‘must have’ volume for anyone visiting the area.”
- Kevin Reardon, Sports Editor, ‘The Leader Newspaper’
“Mike Probert has been a regular columnist and contributor to our magazine for 2 years and his articles are always well received by our readers who I am sure will find the golfing guide to Murcia as equally interesting and informative as the articles that he has supplied to the magazine.”
- Richard Pickering, Editor, ‘The Inland Magazine’
“Mike has been exclusively involved with www.murcia- golf.co.uk for a couple of years now providing invaluable input which has enabled us to develop the site to its full potential. He has provided well thought out and well written material on not only the game of golf but also commentaries on intelligent strategies for golfers to think about when playing and he has covered this by aiming his editorials at both beginners and the more experienced player. His commentaries have been extremely well received by our readers and he is now a regular unmissable feature of our web-site. We look forward to reading this book when published as will many of our satisfied customers.”
- Gary Burton and Sandra Blakey, www.murcia-golf.co.uk

“Do 80% of Your Clothes Belong On Someone Else?”
- By (Top UK Image Consultant) Sue Donnelly

http://www.BookShaker.com
They say that clothes don’t maketh the man – but they sure
can help. But what kind of man (or woman) are you? How do
you want to appear to others?
One of my clients is a manager of a sales team. He is
expected to get great results and, on the whole, he achieves
this. However, he realized that many of the team seemed to
be in awe of him and rarely did any of them call him for
help. Even during team meetings he felt that he was doing
all the talking and the input from his team was minimal.
He was wearing a charcoal grey, well-tailored suit, white
crisp cotton shirt and a deep red tie. He looked fabulous
BUT without knowing it, his adopted style was that of an
authoritarian.
A paler grey suit with blue shirt and blue tie has less
contrast and provides a softer look. He still looked like a
smart businessman BUT he appeared to be more approachable.
The result – his staff opened up more to him as they felt
less intimidated.
Here are some tips for you:
1. Authority is gained by wearing clothes with maximum
contrast: black and white, dark brown and cream, navy and
palest blue.
2. A softer image is gained by dressing in tones and shades
of a single colour: olive green trousers/skirt and slightly
lighter shade for the upper body.
3. Plain, bold colour is authoritative.
4. Introduce pattern or design for a softer look, for
instance a paisley tie with a striped shirt.
5. The larger the stripe or check in a shirt or blouse, the
more casual it appears.
6. A jacket that compliments, but doesn’t exactly match,
trousers or a skirt will appear less authoritative.
7. Fabrics that are stiff and starchy will appear more
authoritative than those that have more fluidity and drape.
The same applies to garments with lots of fitted tailoring
(authority) and less structure (approachable).
8. Red and/or black can look powerful. Pastels will appear
less so.
9. Guys – a button down collar in a softer fabric will look
less authoritative than a stiff cutaway.
10. Hairstyles that are severe will give an impression of
power. Hair softly framing the face alludes to warmth.
