Hie. My name is lil' Tatty. I'm a very little bear. Dat is why I'm called the lil' Tatty.
Sometimes I like to complain and talk about stuffs which I felt dat particular day.
But most of the time, I am a happy bear and I like to stay happy! Hehehe..
Thanks to my master, I am able to come to Scotland and see the world a lil'. This is to open my small eyes and small mind. =)

Sunday, July 15, 2007 Of Madrid First.
As you hungry peeps are awaiting for the videos.. here's one of the cultural festivals dat we went to.. none other than bullfighting itself in the heart of Madrid.
Warning: The videos posted may contain violence and cruelty. Please watch it at your own risk.
Alrighty, without further mumblings.. let's get to the point. We reached the ring at about 20 minutes before the thing starts. The first video presents the opening procession.. with bull fighters, horses and bull-provokers. Haha..
After the opening procession, a fresh, energetic bull runs into the ring. After which, a bullfighter on a blind-folded horse will be released into the ring. And this is wad happened.. Note: Please ignore my ramblings during the video shoot. Hehehehe..
They will then continue to provoke and tease the bull. I must say.. the bull is very pitiful. LOL. Everytime kena provoke by them.. and the bull stupidly accepts their teasings.
Next, the cruelty continues.. With the bull fighter piercing a long sword into the bull. Yucks. And the spanish spectators will hail 'Ole, Ole, Ole' Hahaha.. anyone knows wad that means?
It will then end with a procession like this below. The bull will be defeated in the end where the horses will be out to drag the dead bull. This is the time where the bull fighter will have his glory.. waving to the spectators who were watching.. and the spectators will raise their white flags as a sign of the defeated bull. The white flags can be a tissue or some cloth.. as long as it is white in colour.
And a cycle of bullfighting is completed.. I wonder how many bulls were killed that night. Cos malau and me were there only half way of the show.. we left the show early cos it was kinda boring. We've watched like 5 completed cycles.. and it still have not ended, and it was running kinda late already. So we opted to go back before it actually ends. So, I'm not shure if they have a closing ceremony. Hehe. Anyways, the video below is a special edition video. It's called the bulls' dance. LOL. I made it up myself.. anyways, just watch it.. it's out from the normal 'procedure'.
Alrighty, I think dat's all for now. I might be posting up some photos of the trip. Just pop back in when you're free.. Mebbe I'm not dat hardworking to post it up so soon. LOL. Just wait okie? Tata for now..
