Spanish village mounts Playmobil extravaganza We're delighted to report that the first Playmobil expo in the Spanish village of Tivissa turned out to be a bit of a blinder. We were alerted to last weekend's miniature celebration - forming part of the IV Fira De Natal (Fourth Xmas Festival) - by expat reader Neil Tragham (and yes, that's his real name). Poster for the …
...I'd be mightily suspicious of the inclusion of an Elvis scene and also at the inclusion of an astronaut in the nativity scene - they are obviously trying to send some coded message. I'd guess that they also have a top secret JFK assassination diorama in some concealed room in the Casal Cultural that only top-echelon cognoscenti have access to, you know, one that shows the positions of ALL the gunmen.
The astronaut is of particular interest: I don't suppose it's the 'plucky playmonaut' who *allegedly* met a sticky end in a watery grave somewhere in La Manche way back in 2012?

Are you suggesting the Plucky Playmonaut faked his death to cover up that the PARIS landing was faked in a TV studio on the moon and Ancient Playmonauts actually were around for the birth of Jesus just like in that Chris de Burgh song that was actually written by Christopher Marlowe?

They did... take another look at the Colorado Springs pic.
If that's Elvis, where's his chip shop? There's also a shocking lack of unicorns at the nativity scene...

But... we all know Lister convinced him to shoot himself.
However, having been gifted playmobile sets in the past for my spawn I can say one thing... I hope they don't lose any of the building pieces (the plastic bits in between the buildings that stick them together)
And... that must have cost a small fortune for all those separate kits ... no wonder Spain is not in good shape financially!

I read the following
"Anyway, back to the action. "
as "Anyway, back to the bacon"
It's just my mind has gotten used to high incidence references to pork products in articles from the Iberian Bureau,
Just looked in the fridge - no Bacon there either for a fry-up this Sunday morning. Ahhhhhhhhh!
