Fibbing Friday : 6th November

Hello and welcome to another Fibbing Friday.
I’m your host this week and as regular readers know, myself and PCGuyIV https://pcguyiv.wordpress.com/ have kept the Fibbing Friday challenge going.
As always, thank you all for your continued support and participation.

To join in, write a post with your answers to my 10 questions below and tag it “Fibbing Friday” or #FibbingFriday. Then link back to this post so that others can enjoy your answers and maybe join in too!
If you use WordPress, pingbacks are enabled, so as long as you link to this post, it should show up. Bear in mind though that they are usually approved manually, so don’t be surprised if the link doesn’t show up immediately. You can also leave a link to your post in the comments.

Although it’s the 6^th of November and not the 5^th, you may not be surprised about my ‘theme’ for this week. As the title of this series suggests, truth is not an option and the idea is to fib a little, a lot, tell whoppers, be inventive, silly or even outrageous, in your responses.
I hope you have fun with these questions and I’ll be back with my own answers later.

1. Who met for the first time at The Duck and Drake Inn in London on May 20^th 1604?
2. Why was the opening of Parliament delayed from July to November the following year?

4. Why did the Gunpowder Plot fail?
5. Who designed the iconic Guy Fawkes mask?

10. How did Guy Fawkes die?

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too. On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.
