Guy Fawkes Day

| 0 Comments
    Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
    The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
    I know of no reason
    Why Gunpowder Treason
    Should ever be forgot.
    Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t'was his intent
    To blow up King and Parliament.
    Three-score barrels of powder below
    To prove old England's overthrow;
    By God's providence he was catch'd
    With a dark lantern and burning match.
    Holloa boys, holloa boys, let the bells ring.
    Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!
There's not too many Guy Fawkes festivities here in the Bay Area, so instead, make yourself Guy Fawkes treats (such as ginger cake and toffee), kick back, grab yourself a pint and watch V for Vendetta .
