You’re probably familiar with the western Mediterranean tradition of caganers – figurines, trousers down, taking a crap as part of Nativity scenes and other end-of-year cult activities. In Linyola they’ve gone one better and are advertising for live, male bum for three days (heating may be provided) for the village tableau vivant. The winner gets a weekend in Andorra, possibly accompanied by the all-female jury. Applications to pessebrelinyola@lleida.org.
