Bonfire Night aka Guy Fawkes Night

Bonfire Night was a day later for us this year because of high winds. The next night was good, not very cold and hardly any wind. For anyone that don't know Bonfire Night started after the Gun Powder Plot to blow up the House of Lords  in 1605 England. Ever since then people have had bonfires to commemorate the event and it is common to burn an effigy of Guy Fawkes in the fire. I'm not sure if it is common in the U.S. but it is in Canada and the UK.
