Guy Fawkes Night

Tonight is Guy Fawkes night, when we remember what happened to the unfortunate fellow who tried to blow up the houses of parliament back in 1605.

I shall be having a few quiet fireworks and some sparklers later, and hopefully some roasted chestnuts!

Have fun, stay safe and always wear gloves with your sparklers! xx

Remember, remember
The fifth of November
Gun powder, treason and plot

I see no reason why gun powder treason should ever be forgot

Guy Fawkes, Guy, t'was his intent
To blow up King and parliament!
Three score barrels were laid low
To prove old England's overthrow

By Gods mercy, he was catch'd
With a darkened lantern
and burning match
So holler boys! holler boys!
Let the bells ring!
Holler boys! holler boys!
God save the King!

And what shall we do with him?
Burn him!
