"First footing" is a tradition on New Year's eve (or Hogmanay as they call it) still practiced in Scotland. To bring a year of good luck the first person to cross the threshold after midnight should be a tall, dark, handsome man. If you fit the bill you are expected to visit many houses during the evening. Bring a dram with you to spread good cheer, as well as coal for the fireplace to symbolize warmth.
