Email from Tanya on Tuesday 1st February 2005
"I booked my trip to Pamplona yesterday!!!!!!
Leaving London on 4th July and heading to Spain - get there on the 5th
And the opening ceremony is on 6th
and then the first 'Run with the Bulls' is the 7th and 8th
Then I am getting dropped off in San Sebastian to hang around for a bit
Sounds good - and you can come if you want!!
PS - as it is against traditional local culture for women to run I won't be running
- I think it is disrespectful and 'faarking' scary
Plus the Spanish blokes hate it and push the girls in the path of the bulls - nice!!!
I will be watching the run from a high vantage point
Tanya"
