V is for Vendetta fans...

Anyone else notice what day lurks ever-so-closely?

Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I know of no reason
Why Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.

LOL...at least I can remember that bit of historical trivia now!

Traditionally the following verse was also sung, but it has fallen out of favour because of its content.

A penny loaf to feed the Pope
A farthing o' cheese to choke him.
A pint of beer to rinse it down.
A faggot of sticks to burn him.
Burn him in a tub of tar.
Burn him like a blazing star.
Burn his body from his head.
Then we'll say ol' Pope is dead.
Hip hip hoorah!
Hip hip hoorah hoorah!


I love that movie!
