Halloween and Bonfire Night over, there's another Autumn/Fall classic still to come:
And now a film I really like about Thanksgiving:
"Home for the holidays"(1995)
Guy Fawkes Night (november 5th)
- Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
- The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
- I know of no reason
- Why the Gunpowder Treason
- Should ever be forgot.
- Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t'was his intent
- To blow up King and Parli'ment.
- 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!

Liberal England: Trick or treat or penny for the guy?
Do you agree with the author? How about the answers he receives? Is anything similar happening in Spain?
