Happy Birthday Miss Sophie!
The Germans have many traditions which almost make me wish I was German. One of them is that around midnight on New Year's Eve they watch the movie "Dinner for One." Every year. The weird thing is, it's an English movie. It's only about ten minutes long. But it proves that laughter is an international language. And what better way to start the new year than with merriment. Check it out and see if you agree. And, even if you don't, I wish you a very happy new year!

Funny it is! I'd never heard about that as a German custom.
How interesting!

Interesting custom...
Glückliches Neues Jahr, Molly
I have seen that before, but it always raises a chuckle. thanks for that.
Happy New Year, Molly!
My daughter is visiting a friend in Germany and I can't wait to ask her if they watched the movie, which I've never heard of.
And a good New Year to you too, Molly. Looking forward to reading more of your excellent writing in 2008.
Happy New Year Molly.
I couldn't get it to play, but I will try again. I had never heard of it, either.
Happy New Year!
yes Molly, this is one of the traditions half of our nation (like me) really likes and the other half (like my SO) is furrowing their brows, shaking their head about the other half of the nation.
Since last couple of years we met with friends and families on places without TV I nearly forgot about it. Thanks for bringing it back from Florida to Germany!
Wir wünschen Dir und Deiner Familie ein gesundes und glückliches neues Jahr!
