Remember, Remember, the fifth of November...

After my annual "ya boo" at Hallowe'en, here is my other annual Guy Fawkes' posting!

Now before you ask "Why don't you have Guy Fawkes/Bonfire Night celebration them?" I would like to point out that

1. There are rules about open fires in this city with an historic (WOODEN!) castle and we are very close to it.
2. Anybody got any fireworks?
3. We tried before - it is a very cold night!
4. It is just as irrelevant as Hallowe'en :) in Japan
