flame, swimming, celebrated, white, tomorrow by Maddie

Tomorrow the sky will be filled with huge orange, white, red and blue flames; that’s because it's going to be Bonfire Night. It is celebrated because Guy Fawkes and others planned to blow up the Houses of Parliament by placing lots of gun powder under the great building. To get the gun powder barrels without being discovered probably involved swimming in the Thames and the smelly sewers... Luckily their plan failed and they were caught. He joined the team on 20th May 1604; he was captured 5th November 1605. Guy Fawkes penalty was to be hung, drawn and quartered. Ouch!!
