Oma, I always hope they will help with my spelling - but sometimes it's the opposite. I can't solve a clue because I've spelled the crossing words wrongly.

Guy Fawkes, born in York, was arrested when around 30 barrels of gunpowder, camouflaged with coal, were discovered in the cellar under Parliament.
Robert Catesby’s small band of Catholic zealots who planned to blow up James I and Parliament were only arrested after Fawkes revealed their names when tortured on the rack.
Conspirators met at the Old Lion Inn, Dunchurch, Warwickshire on 5th November to await news of the destruction of Westminster.“A grandchild fills a space in your heart that you never knew was empty.” – UnknownComment

I started watching Fawkes last night but it was very slow and didn’t catch my imagination,
I went on line and read about all the men involved ,
Some have relatives living today but not Guy Fawkes ,
They suffered unimaginable torture, barbaric but the methods of the times.Im not fat just 6ft too smallComment

The WI is an institution that seems to have stood the test of monumental changes to our way of life. I imagine the world was a very different place in 1915. I wonder what the founders would think of the WI and the world in general today.
