Bishop Hill is not a bishop. He's not actually called Hill either. He is an Englishman who lives in rural Scotland.

Passing on the libertarian message

DateNov 5, 2008

Large son and small son were having a conversation in the bath.

Large son: Do you know why we have Guy Fawkes night?

Small son: Err. Yeeesss.

Large son: Why then?

Small son: Errr. Don't know.

Large son: It's because there was a man called Guy Fawkes who wanted to blow up Parliament. That means he wanted to make it bigger.....

The message isn't getting through, is it?
