Well, I was not kilted, but I had the chance to assist to our last game in world cup, against France,..... in Paris!
I had to see it during the annual meeting of my company, and surrounded by crowds of shouting gauls!!!
At least these pics were taken before Spain started to loose!
This one is me with my spanish boss before the game started...

This is when we scored first....

and to see the face of the super-boss looking as here deserved even the sour moments of our defeat at the end by 3-1::mrgreen:

well... it was hard to loose as we did, specially considering that Spain acted as an aspirin to french team!,... as they told me,... they still can't believe they could win Spain,... and even less Brazil!
But at least I felt proud enough to stand in front of all them when around 150 french supporters were shouting at me "oú sont-ils les espagnols?" looking at their eyes with some defiant attitude! .....I felt something inside shouting to me: "Desperta Ferro!!!!!!!"(*)
¡Salud!

(*) That was the shout of war for the aragonese crown troops in middle ages and it means "wake up Iron!"... regarding our trips out there,... I heard that in Greece they still say "catalan vengeance may fall over you!", when they curse somebody! ;)
