To all those British out there and anyone else for that matter, please remember the 5th of November<\/a> as it should be and remember why we celebrate it,\u00a0The failed Gunpowder Plot<\/a>of 1605. Don’t forget your guy “penny for the guy anyone? :)”, roasted chestnuts and of course your fireworks. Celebrate Guy Fawkes Night as it should be celebrated, celebrate it like you would all those years ago. Don’t let it be forgotten or taken over by Halloween!<\/p>\n

Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
\nThe Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
\nI know of no reason
\nWhy the Gunpowder Treason
\nShould ever be forgot.
\nGuy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t’was his intent
\nTo blow up the King and Parli’ment.
\nThree-score barrels of powder below
\nTo prove old England’s overthrow;
\nBy God’s providence he was catch’d (or by God’s mercy*)
\nWith a dark lantern and burning match.
\nHolla boys, Holla boys, let the bells ring.
\nHolloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!
\nAnd what should we do with him? Burn him!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
