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

Guy Fawkes & the Gunpowder Plot
Words of "Remember Remember" refer to Guy Fawkes with origins in 17th century English history. On the 5th November 1605 Guy Fawkes was caught in the cellars of the Houses of Parliament with several dozen barrels of gunpowder. Guy Fawkes was subsequently tried as a traitor with his co-conspirators for plotting against the government. He was tried by Judge Popham who came to London specifically for the trial from his country manor Littlecote House in Hungerford, Berkshire. Fawkes was sentenced to death and the form of the execution was one of the most horrendous ever practised (hung ,drawn and quartered) which reflected the serious nature of the crime of treason.

Pumpkin Carving Patterns

It’s Halloween at the end of the month. On Saturday 31st October 2009 many will take to the streets trick or treating.

You need to ward off evil doers so it’s essential that you have a pumpkin in the window. I always find myself dashing to the local supermarket on the eve of Halloween. This year I plan on being a little more prepared!

And rather than the standard jagged mouthed, square eyed monster, I figured that a few pumpkin carving patterns would be of value not just to me and my gang but to you and yours.
