Visiting son in Worcester and staying in a little village jusy outside called Hadley, at an old Inn called the Hadley Bowling Green Inn. Apparently some terrorist stayed here a while back( see photos). Also bought a book in a charity shop …. See the photos….. given to a student in 1910 by the head teacher and it’s in good condition Will be doing some research on that!!!

The "Guy Fawkes" meme/mask has taken on a meaning of it's own, outside the actual history of the real Guy Fawkes. Here is the Widipedia entry for Guy Fawkes:

Guy Fawkes - Wikipedia

So, yea, a "terrorist" in his time.

More recently, the Guy Fawkes mask can be seen as representing opposition to totalitarian governments, as is seen in the "V for Vendetta" graphic novel and film, originated by Alan Moore.

Why is it that wives say they know everything?
