Remember, Remember...

Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I can think of no reason
Why the Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t'was his intent
To blow up the King and Parli'ment.
Three-score barrels of powder below
To prove old England's overthrow;
By God's providence he was catch'd
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, let the bells ring.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!



There's more but it's quite violently anti-catholic so I'll leave it out.

Musselburgh fireworks were good, though I was a bit late. The racecourse is bigger tha nI expected and the fireworks were at the furthest away end. My shots ended up being taken from further away than I originally intended. The fences on the racecourse do add something to the image though.

Had another trip to The Levenhall Arms afterwards, a pleasant little pub, if a little orange.
