    I just looked up Hogmanay. So do you do all the traditions like bring food and greeting your neighbors? Also did you do this?

    Im an antisocial peopleaphobe... so... no. :cautious:

    We (dh and I, )had a fire out back in my kadai and toasted the newyears with a dram (or 2) of midwinter mead while listening to the boats at the harbour ring in new years(tradition in Aberdeen, all the boats/ships in Aberdeen harbour just a few miles up the coast lean on there horns at midnight to ring in the new years... for about 10 minutes straigh. Its a pretty awsome sound along with all the fireworks going off to.)
    We did think of going to Stonehaven for the fireballs but ... Im a bit clastriphobic in crowds and it can get pretty packed....
