Here in North-Eastern Italy we have this tradition: preparing very high fires (even 15 metres!); they are burnt on the evening of 6th of January, and from the direction of smoke we "forecast" the future: if smoke goes to East, the year will be good, if goes to West, bad.
It takes days and days to prepare such fires, called "pignarùl", and people work togheter hardly to prepare them.
When burning, we dring hot wine, a lot of sweet hot wine! :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:
It's a Celtic tradition, based on the magic power of fire.
Does anyone of our members have something like that in his land?

Also wonderful to hear of your good luck with the lottery Joaquin, I know 2008 is going to be a good year for you. :hi5:

Max, I like your tradition, it sounds just like an evening I would enjoy. :cheers:

We often have bonfires here to burn garden waste and sometimes even "dead" cellos. Last time we did this in the Autumn I was telling one pupil about the burning cellos and they gave me a row. Not because I was burning cellos but because I was causing global warming! :banghead: :banghead: :lol:

That sounds imteresting Max :D We have fires here on the winter solstice (21st December) which is possibly part of the same tradition. I know that 'the church' stole lots of celtic / germanic traditions & made them their own so having bonfires on the 6th Jan instead of 21st December would make sense.

It's the same with the bonfires around Halloween / Guy Fawkes etc.... This was the celtic new year so fires were burnt to close the old year & start the new....

I hope your smoke blew in the right direction Max :D


Joaquin!! Well done on your lottery win mate!!!!!!
