New England's Dark Day happened in 1780.
England began celebrating New Year's Day on January 1st in 1752, when the country adopted the Gregorian calendar. Prior to this change, England and its colonies observed the new year on March 25th, known as Lady Day. The shift was part of a broader transition from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar, which corrected inaccuracies in the previous system. This adjustment aimed to standardize the calendar and align it more closely with the solar year.
People in England celebrate the New Year with fireworks and parties similar to celebrations in America. They also have a tradition where a dark haired man is supposed to bring coal, salt, and bread into the home to ensure a healthy and wealthy new year.
Happy New Year would be proper since it's a new year not new YEARS. On the eve or the first day of the new year, wishing one a Happy New Year's Eve or Happy New Year's Day would be appropriate; however, if the eve or day isn't specified, Happy New Year is correct.
No. Christmas Day and New Year's Day are never on the same day in the same year. Christmas Day is always one day in the week later. New Year's Day in 2025 will be on a Wednesday and Christmas Day will be on a Thursday. A week after that, New Year's Day of 2026 will be on a Thursday. It is the Christmas Day of one year and the New Year's Day of the next year that are always on the same day of the week.
