This Saturday (February 5) sees the Chinese New Year arrive. For those interested in the traditions, history and superstitions surrounding the event, the Chinese New Year site has lots of information. For example, make sure you've got all your doors and windows open at midnight to let the old year out of your house, and don't use scissors or knives or you may cut out good fortune.

The Year 2000: Year of the Dragon page has more of a party feel to it, with virtual cards you can send, information on the Chinese zodiac and even virtual Fortune Sticks to see what the year ahead holds. For those of you who would rather celebrate in a more hands-on way, it also includes details of the street parties being held in major UK cities and has loads of fantastic traditional recipes so you can stuff yourself silly.

Happy New Year! Again!
