I didn't expect that. Do they still kill bulls in the ring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Animal Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 The song is against bullfighting. It's as if it's the bull talking and the poor thing doesn't understand what is going on, then realises and says he'll get the "danseuse ridicule, ce pantin, ce minus et ces poupées", he thinks of the prairies in Andalusia, doesn't understand why they cheer as he falls, doesn't undertand how there can be such amusement around a tomb, is the world serious? It's very sad yet laughing at the toreros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a fellow "nearly-Bristolian", did you know that her daughter died falling from the Clifton Suspension Bridge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weedon Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Just because the bull fight theme was blocking my ability to function properly I thought I would share this with you. A neighbour in my former life was the brother of El Higgins, at that time he was, I think, the only English matador. Huh! I hear you uttering. Nevertheless, you never know when that rivetting piece of info might come in handy. I've waited for 27 years to share that with somebody.Anyone know if bulls are afraid of mice...apparently elephants are...handy tip if you find yourself being charged by an African bull elephant and happen to have a mouse in your safari suit.

Weedon Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Don't lets get clogged down with falling off bridges, here's a cheerful little number sung with a West Country accent, I believe the expression is......Proper Job.

Kitty Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I'm trying to work out if the knees, Weedon, are male or female or even yours! It's the black straps that are intriguing.Playing Mark and Eric right this minute. Good music. My favourite Clapton track is:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F44BcGjIbAAClapton, by the way, was one of Carla Bruni's conquests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali-cat Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 For some totally unknown reason, for the last week, I haven't been able to get "Eloise" by the Damned, out of my head ..... then on Monday we found a stray, seriously injured kitten on the side of the road, who has now had her operations & is doing well. She's coming home to us on Monday & guess what we're calling her?!! [:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitty Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Ali-cat - Your link wasn't working.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3CZONdLDmc&feature=relatedI read about the rescue on another thread and I realise that she will have no tail. Are her legs going to be strapped up for very long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-cat Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Opps, sorry, I hadn't actually done a link - due to the fact that I'm terrible at that sort of thing!! [:D] Having seen the state of her today I now think that "Rat Scabies" would have been more appropiate than Eloise!!She has no strappings but is totally shaved from half way down her back, with stitches down both legs. Not a pretty sight - but still cute!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
