Hello to everybody!Have you ever heard the name of Guy Fawkes?
Do you know why British people celebrate the BONFIRE NIGHT or GUY FAWKES' NIGHT on the 5th of November?
Let me just tell you sothing about this story...
During the reign of James I, on the 5th of November 1605, a man called Guy Fawkes and his friends tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament with gunpowder. Fortunately, the king's guards found the gunpowder and arrested Guy Fawkes.
In order to remember this hystorical event, in Britain the Bonfire Night or the Guy Fawkes' Night is celebrated on the 5th of November every year. People make bonfires and watch firework displays. It is usually cold so people eat jacket potatoes and hot dogs. Children like eating roast chestnuts. In the end, people make a puppet called "Guy" with old clothes and they put it at the top of the bonfire. They light up the bonfire with the puppet and the show starts!
