WOW :ohmy: They are fantastic! What a shame to burn them. Oh, I am soooo looking forward to getting to Spain and seeing some of the festivals and parades. They really put some work into it don't they!

Thanks for sharing these :)

In Oliva today I have been deafened and nearly blown up on several occasions and now have a constant ringing in my ears.

I had to lead 9 golfers with their golf bags through the streets to a hotel and ended up in a procession with a brass band which I think the locals found quite amusing.

The whole town has gone completely mad with all intent on making a louder noise than the next man!
