Here’s a link to the original Auld Lang Syne- I like it better than the more familiar one. This one is lovely and haunting.

Coming from a long line of Scots with our castle in John O’ Groats, I have never heard of this practice.

Too bad I am not tall dark and handsome. I do have some coal and silver ores though.

Part of my family comes from the MacKenzie clan..I was fortunate to be in Edinburgh for Hogmanay when I was a young girl and have never forgotten the enchanting music, fragrances and tastes!

My ancestors were all Scots except one Irish GGrandmother. My Mother and all her Brothers and Sisters were tall and handsome or pretty. They all had black hair and blue or gray eyes.

I don’t recall any of them celebrating Mahogany tho I used to see it on the calendar and wonder what it was.
