Do you celebrate New year where you come from?

We visited relatives in Scotland ( where I was born) and we call it Hogmanay. I was around 12 but remember the neighbours all having a drink in each others houses and lots of dancing.
We still normally stay up to see the new year in even now but hoping to go out this year to see a band or singer.

I’m not into New Year’s Eve celebrations though I sometimes do a polar bear plunge thing in New Year’s Day and I always go for a long walk in New Year’s Day

Ahhh....so you're from the land of my ancestors (on my mum's side). Have you ever heard of Ayr?

Hogmanay....how fascinating. Is that a Gaelic word? My autocorrect almost typed 'garlic' 🧄 😂😂😂😂

@happygoluckygal Indeed it is. How far are you from that part of the coast? I don't know 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 that well
@27club We moved from Scotland when I was about 4 but still visit family.
