It's the celebration of the capture of Guy Fawkes, and the fact that he didn't get away with blowing up the Houses of Parliament. I think the movie V for Vendetta, has confused people. We weren't celebrating a terrorist the past few hundred years. The kids used to make a "guy" (a dummy), ask for "pennies for the guy", and then on November 5th, he's thrown on the bonfire. (Which I thought was a bit morbid - I didn't like that part, but I loved the fireworks.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawkes_Night IP: Logged |
