Hugo's experience was in Greenlaw, United Kingdom. He went on 26 of December 2007 for 7 days. He went because he lives here and for peace & quiet, get closer to nature. Hugo went with a group of friends. He got there and around by walking, airplane or helicopter. It is hugo's favorite place.

Happy new year!

I had a wonderful new year celebration at home in Scotland.

All you need are some close chums, a bonfire and a little trumpet juice/ alcohol to help defeat the rain. For me the combo was unbeatable.

Happy new year to all.

Humble beginnings

Wait a bit and add a bit of alcohol

Getting going now...

Just one more bit of wood should do the trick

Marshmallow o'clock

Happy new year, warm and toastied

Scotland is a weird and wonderful place on the edge of the planet - and also extremely beautiful, despite beastly weather. It is very famous for a festivity referred to as " HogMonay."
I am not sure what HogMonay is all about - perhaps it involves bonfires and alcohol to stave off the cold?

Indeed, we didn't exactly do "Hogmonay", which involves first-footing your neighbours doorsteps and bringing lumps coal.

Actually, as always, Wikipedia is worth checking out on this as it tells you about the local customs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hogmanay

It seems we did our own thing and perhaps we should have been more sensitive to local customs, they sound fun....maybe next year!
