The do-gooders might be happy, but I'm gutted. I was due out there next week. What's the point if you can't see a decent bullfight?

I suppose next time I do go there I'll just have to settle for the donkey being chucked off the 100ft church tower. It's not quite the same man's sport...still, I'll see if I can get some piccy's and stick 'em on here.

Re: Catalonia bans bullfighting
I went to one the first time I went on holiday to Spain, can't say I was impressed, sat in the sun sweating the old nagers off while some bloke chased an half doped bull round the ring, certainly wasn't Bernabeu

Maybe we should stick Rooney, Terry & Co in among some mad bulls and see how well they move; it certainly ain't done the Spanish footy team any harm.

Of course it is your business. cruelty to animals concerns everyone, even you.
