Popular Post Chris.B Posted November 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2021 I understand fireworks are banned in Thailand? Is that correct? No firework parties allowed tonight then? ☹️☹️ Guy Fawkes Guy Fawkes, also known as Guido Fawkes while fighting for the Spanish, was a member of a group of provincial English Catholics who was involved in the failed Gunpowder Plot of 1605. He was born and educated in York; his father died when Fawkes was eight years old, after which his mother married a recusant Catholic.

Chris.B Posted November 5, 2021 Author Share Posted November 5, 2021 Strange, Google also show something on their front page for various special days but today show nothing for Guy Fawkes on the google.co.uk page. Maybe its a 'Woke' thing? Don't want to upset the Spanish or the Catholics? ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
