Spectacular Spain with Alex Polizzi

Michael Petty Local Interest, Whats On , 0 Comment

This fantastic series with the lovely Alex is just down the road from us tonight. Alex visits Tabernas Desert scene of countless Westerns and blockbuster movies. Recently Exodus, Game of Thrones and Doctor Who have all had scenes filmed here. It is also very popular with the car advertisement makers, not surprising given the fantastic scenery and empty sweeping roads.

Alex promises to be in fine form as she joins in with a scene as a can-can girl at the theme park dedicated to the memory of the great Spaghetti Westerns that were filmed here.

Wikipedia tells us..Amigurumi (編みぐるみ?, lit. crocheted or knitted stuffed toy) Amigurumi is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small, stuffed yarn creatures. The word is a portmanteau of the Japanese words ami, meaning crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi, meaning stuffed doll. In the west are called Amigurumi, which are the original phonetics of 編みぐるみ in Japanese language. Amigurumis vary in size and there are no restrictions about size or look. While Amigurumi has been known in Japan for several decades, Amigurumi first started appealing to the masses in other countries, especially in the West, in 2003. By 2006, amigurumi were reported to be some of the most popular items on Etsy, an online craft marketplace, where they typically sold for $10 to $100. Since then, popularity has continued to increase.
