THE INTERIOR COMMITTEE OF PAMPLONA CITY HALL PLANNING THE TXUPIN OF THE YEAR 2014
Councilor A: Here in Santo Domingo we deploy the 5th infantry battalion, clearing the area for the sapper company of the Legion...
Councilor B: In the roofs we place the sharpshooter company just arrived from Afghanistan.
Councilor C: The [armored division] Brunete we put in Mercaderes St. The tanks in white and red to dissimulate a bit... the guns covered with sashes.
Cop A: I bet a thousand that next year's ikurriña is even larger.
Cop B: That's not fair: you are playing safe.
Luckily for all 2014 will be their last year in power... unless the sky falls over our heads, so to say.
