Remember, remember...
St Peter's School in York almost certainly had their fireworks last night, and maybe a bonfire, but for sure did not burn a guy. Why? Because Guy Fawkes went to school there, and it would be extremely bad form to burn an effigy of a former pupil. It sometimes comes as a bit of a surprise to realise that Guy Fawkes was a real person with a normal history - he preferred to be called "Guido" but this was just an affectation - he was English through and through.
