"1/14: Happy (Julian) New Year's Day - (in all years on the old civil calendar)"

Here, in Russia, people still celebrate this 'Old New Year' (the old calendar has been changed here in 1917(or 18?)).
I suppose, this tradition will die soon.
But now, people begin drinking 12.25 and stop it at 01.14... Oh:( my head...

Happy Old New Year!
