Just to underline the total Spanishness of our part of Herault the annual festival in Beziers in August is the Feria.
This is a flamenco, bullfighting, but mainly serious boozing event.

They always produce a superb poster for the event, these often become collectors items afterwards.
This years poster was no exception. It was based on a photograph taken in the forties by local photographer Cuna.
The colours were so good, I have decided that when the time comes for us to decorate, they will be the only ones other than white, which we will use.
We have already bought some deck chairs, acting as temporary easy chairs, which match beautifully.

We made only one foray into Beziers during the Feria but had a nice moment while we were there.
Local heart throb bullfighter, Cayetano Ortiz, who is of pop star status here and quite ridiculously young to be bullfighting but whom the papers were full of, kindly sat just near us for lunch in the Allees in Beziers and I was able to photograph him.

Also please note that even though we didn’t spend much time at the Feria (no-one would go to a bullfight with me) we did at least get the t-shirts.
