Dressed my 'Mari Lwyd' yesterday. I have one tree ornament and one ceramic, which I made myself in art college. Every Christmas, she gets her ribbons and bells. Google the tradition. #welshtraditions #marilwyd #horses #firstfooting #poems #wales #lifestyles #🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Dark hair male with gifts a Scottish New Year custom called 1st footing

#LegendaryWednesday
According to @Scotland, the 'First Footing' tradition in Scotland sees the 1st guest after midnight as a harbinger of luck. Ideally, they're a dark-haired male bringing coal for the fire, shortbread, black bun, & whiskey for a toast. #FirstFooting 👣 #NewYearScottishCustom

Coal, salt, a silver coin, bread. NYE gifts.

All best wishes for the coming year, comrades & friends, from NE England

Peace & Love

And a safe one!

Snow and ice in the back alley with various birds' footprints criss-crossing it.

Out the back door, round the block then back in the front door. #FirstFooting
