All I want for Christmas is you

Hi guys!!!
As you know there are only three more days of school before we break up for Christmas holidays. So I thought It would be a good idea to listen to some Christmas songs to get on the mood for Christmas.

Do you know many English Christmas carols? Do you usually sing them at this time of hte year?
Don't forget to comment if you would like me to post any particular Christmas Carols that you like.

BONFIRE NIGHT

Photobucket
Tomorrow, 5th of November is a very important festivity in England and other English speaking countries.
Photobucket


November 5th is Bonfire Night in the UK. Bonfire Night is also known as Guy Fawkes Night.
Photobucket
Four hundred years ago, in 1605, a man called Guy Fawkes and a group of plotters attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament in London with barrels of gunpowder placed in the basement. They wanted to kill King James and the king’s leaders.

Photobucket
Why did Guy Fawkes want to kill King James 1st and the king’s leaders?
When QUEEN ELIZABETH I took the throne of England she made some laws against the Roman Catholics. Guy Fawkes was one of a small group of Catholics who felt that the government was treating Roman Catholics unfairly. They hoped that king James I would change the laws, but he didn't.
Catholics had to practise their religion in secret. There were even fines for people who didn't attend the Protestant church on Sunday or on holy days. James lst passed more laws against the Catholics when he became king.

What happened - the Gungpowder Plot
A group of men led by Robert Catesby, plotted to kill King James and blow up the Houses of Parliament, the place where the laws that governed England were made.
Photobucket

The plot was simple - the next time Parliament was opened by King James I, they would blow up everyone there with gunpowder. The men bought a house next door to the parliament building. The house had a cellar which went under the parliament building. They planned to put gunpowder under the house and blow up parliament and the king.

Guy Fawkes Discovered
Guy Fawkes was given the job to keep watch over the barrels of gunpowder and to light the fuse. On the morning of 5th November, soldiers discovered Guy hidden in the cellar and arrested him. The trail of gunpowder at his feet would never be lit.


Photobucket




Guy Fawkes was taken to the Tower of London.

Photobucket
He was tortured and questioned about the other plotters. To start with he didn't tell the soldiers anything about the plot. But, eventually he started to tell the truth.
A Celebration
In celebration of his survival, King James ordered that the people of England should have a great bonfire on the night on 5th November
