" se me ocurrió la idea de echar a cara o cruz quién iba a darle el regalo. "
Cara o cruz ?
Well, it turns out it is the Spanish version of " heads or tails", presumably because Spain had some coins with a cross on one side and a face on the other.
BUT ... I also found out that Cara o Cruz is the title of a Telenovela ! Ha!
Ha ! indeed .... I think I will bung a few episodes on here sometime .. those dark winter months when we all need a bit of a laugh..... at the very least they will be Terrific For Your Spanish ....
LATER ... this blog platform has occasionally swapped the pictures and videos around so they finish up in different places ... like it has up there. BUT .. it has become far more frequent in recent weeks. Does anyone out there know why, or what I can do to minimalise it. Often this can happen after the post has been on the blog for weeks or months ... suddenly things get switched around !
