Happy New Year..


Recommended Posts

In north america there is more folks wishing you happy new year in the days before than after the event ; in a merry christmas kind of way

seems polar opposite to what i grew up with in 70s at home

I think by early 80s it had started losing its appeal ; ad hoc first footing being replaced in some cases by invite only parties... 

lot of folk seem to prefer christmas now / who were traditionally brought up with hogmanay to be more important...

Probably coz we more or less banned Christmas celebrations for about 400 years. Scotland has been undergoing a slow recovery from that for the past few decades.
