English Folk Verse (c.1870) - The Fifth of November 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 and his companions Did the scheme contrive, To blow the King and Parliament All up alive. Threescore barrels, laid below, To prove old England's overthrow. But, by God's providence, him they catch, With a dark lantern, lighting a match! A stick and a stake...
Hey Dancin' fool... your photography is amazing. Please tell me you take a gazillion bad shots for every excellent one you post?!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteI did your suggestion of a trawl of random blogs... I stumbled across " L'aubergine Joyuese" - should win a prize for the name alone!!!!
BTW What's your favourite colour?
Oh heck - answer the whole SP10 questionnaire, and it will make gifts for you very exciting....
Hello! I confess I have many bad shots, and thank you for the lovely compliment. I visited several lovely places today and the sun shined. It was very spring like.
ReplyDeleteGlad you did some blog exploring, I did too again earlier but just came across the hot babes one and the one with the bad jokes; they seem to appear a lot! I have to visit L'aubergine Joyuese!
Will complete SP10 and forward post haste. xx
