I think he's referring more to the fact that he already mentioned Alonso on the previous page...

hah, oops. I'm really not with it tonight

 

[Nibble]

 

[Spanish Seagulls]

From the world of film: Penelope Cruz, Javier Bardem & of course the short arse Antonio Banderas
Art : Dali, Picasso & Goya
I think the most famous would have to be Don Quijote who would actually be an interesting subject.

You're right I don't fall into the famous Spaniards group because I'm actually Irish!

Antonio Banderas?
Enrique Iglesias?

 

[Brian Fantana]

Arantxa Sanchez Vicario

Dani Pedrosa, how the hell does he do it. Only 7 stone, 5 ft 2 inches, no way he should be able to ride a motogp bike like that

Amazin' ain't it? I think he must have a gyroscope up his bum or summut.

The reason the lightweight midget can do it is because they are big four strokes with more electronics inside than at Sony's R&D dept., if he was riding a real GP bike - 500cc two stroke - he would ride it like Spain's only world champion in the premiere class is here:

Oh just checked, Don Quijote (Quixote) was actually fictional along with Sancho Panza who didn't actually design the German tank! Oh well.

I think that she'd still get top marks for the Don Quijote story though as it is world reknowned & does have some good material

If you want loads and loads you can pinch from the internet, why not try General Franco? Famous for all the wrong reasons maybe, but bloody famous nonetheless.

A good shedload of stuff about the Spanish Civil War might teach the teacher a bit too, if the best she can come up with is Shakira.

 

[Gully]

General Francisco Franco, Francisco Pizarro and Pedro Almodovar.

 

[Albion Dan]

Don Quixote

 

[Austrian Gull]

The golfing legend that is Jose-Maria Olazabal.

The wannabe legend that is Sergio Garcia.

 

[Trufflehound]

My name is Inigo Montoya. You kill my father.



Him, or Sean Connery in Highlander.

 

[Trufflehound]

Michael Denzil Xavier Portillo

Or

Francisco Paulino Hermenegildo Teódulo Franco

How about Hernan Cortez and Francisco Pizzaro, surely the only second cousins in history to have each destroyed an ancient civilisation? (Aztecs and Incas respectively)
