Grandma used to tell me on this day that I had to "Go look out for the man with as many noses as there are days in the year .." Just as she used to tell my mother and her mother before her told her ... thought it was a Geordie tradition ... apparently also a Catalan legends. Home dels nassos is translated as "Man of the noses". On New Year's Eve, this man walks the streets and has as many noses on his face as days the year has ... lol
