HAPPY GUY FAWKES NIGHT! (...a little early)

"Remember remember the fifth of November
Gunpowder, treason and plot.
I see no reason why gunpowder, treason
Should ever be forgot..."

Why not start things off a day early, right?

The Holiday Shop, Food Market, Candy Shack and Minions Market are celebrating this holiday by selling some Guy Fawkes related items... some WILL retire, so try and collect them all before they do!

To those of you celebrating Guy Fawkes Night in a few hours time, may we wish you a happy evening and stay safe!

YAY! A British celebration...thank you!

I love Guy Faulkes night because it's totally non-religious celebration and has pretty sparkly fireworks!

Personally, I always thought it would've been cool if they did blow up parliament...so I don't much celebrate they failed I'm just "weeeeee purdy lights!"

Yeah this is the first time that I hear of it. So coincidentally, 5 Nov is my boyfriend's birthday too. He turns 21 this year.

For those of you who don't know who Guy Fawkes is...

He (along with some other people) tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament in Britain in 1605. He was caught and hung for treason, but every year the 5th of November is celebrated to remember what nearly happened. We have fireworks and then a big bonfire on which a kind of scarecrow of Guy Fawkes is burnt. It's pretty cool. I'll be going to a big display, which is organised by my local council. Â£3 entry but the money raised goes to charity. Then I'll be going to a friend's house for more fireworks.
