You can probably get a bet on but would you want to risk being put in a spanish jail?

They are allowed to operate as a regular bookie,so no exchange unless you can get access with a proxy or something.

if you have a machine you can leave switched on in UK (or get someone to switch it on when required) you can use remote access to that machine e.g. http://www.gotomypc.com/remote_access/remote_access (30 day free trial Wink)

Might follow ? Already done it more like. Almost every country in Europe has banned BF or bringing in turnover taxes leaving BF the only option of running the farkin Sportsbook.

Germany trying their hardest now to follow France, Spain, Italy, Cyprus, Belgium etc.

You don`t know how lucky you are to be over there & safe!

Must've been using proxies then. The new law came into force on 1st June I think. Even if you sign up to the Spanish site, betfair.es, there's no horse racing.
