The Scottish residents and expatriates partake in
first-footing
where the first person to enter the house/business establishment
on New Year's Day 12:01 a.m. and later is viewed as a bringer of
luck for the coming year. Red-headed visitors are viewed as bad luck;
traditionally this person should bring a present but nothing too crazy!
[ example gifts like a lump of coal, shortbread, or whiskey ]
