Its good to see that there are different levels of Equality for the Commission to commit.Manuel's from Barcelona - so these days he'd probably insist he's Catalonian not Spanish,

We need to remember that Fawlty Towers was made in those happy carefree days before the politically correct fascists had their fingers in every pie,and that most humour has an underlying base of cruelty.Manuel's from Barcelona - so these days he'd probably insist he's Catalonian not Spanish,

a handbag?A new story by @josé miguel tecles verdú
LA BANDOLERA by Red Sonja
This is my first story that I am going to write. I hope you like it. I wanted to place it shortly after the end of the Spanish War of Independence against the French, when the rogue King Ferdinand VII failed to fulfill his promises to swear the 1812 constitution, proclaim himself absolute king...www.cruxforums.com
A Bandalero was actually a belt worn over the shoulder and across the chest and in which ammunition was carried. Bandelero also became a name for a bandit in Spanish speaking countries.a handbag?
(actually I think it's a shoulder-bag, or military shoulder-strap)
It also makes me think of Bandiera Rossa, the Italian - and more catchy - version of The Red Flag.
Gracias - so bandolera is a female bandit? That figures. I recalled the ammo strap, and indeed the feminine bandolera is used for a handbag, mainly though I think not necessarily, one with a shoulder-strap, but I didn't know of the 'bandit' sense.A Bandalero was actually a belt worn over the shoulder and across the chest and in which ammunition was carried.

There was also an old Edwardian Drawing Room style ballad,"The Bandelero", usually sung by a baritone,which started "I am the brave and gallant Bandelero",but I can`t remember any more words.There was a movie, "Bandalero!" starring James Stewart, Dean Martin and Raquel Welch. The plot sounds a bit like a CF story https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandolero!
