For about 400 years, England has traditionally celebrated the day (night) of Guy Fawkes, which is also called the Night of Bonfires and Fireworks.

Jacob's Day

The people even said: "Snow will inflate - bread will arrive." If there is no snow or it is very shallow, they expected winter after November 22. There were completely illogical signs for Jacob of the day: for example, the older generation said that if a teenager prepares debts for study, he cannot find a good wife for a century.
