Dear Daniel,
Thanks for your letter. How are the things going on? Did something new happen in your life? My family misses you. We hope to see you next year.
I want to tell you about a festival in my country, I’m talking about the International Women’s Day. It’s celebrated on the 8th of March every year in all Russian cities. Men and boys do all housework this day. Also they present flower and gifts and tell pleasant words to their grandmother, mums, sisters, wifes, daughters.
What festivals are there in your country? What is your favorite festival? Tell me about it, please. Well, I need to do my homework.
Love,
Sally
New Year's Eve in Scotland. In Scotland New Year is very important holiday. Scots take New Year's Eve very seriously. There is a New Year Eve Fire Festival; men parade with blazing tar (burning barrels of tar), they throw them into a great bonfire. The "First Foot" then set out.In Scotland "first foot" is a common custom; it is considered lucky if a dark haired man is the first to set foot in the house after midnight, bringing a coin, piece of bread, or a lump of coal as a symbol of plenty for the year.
