Preparations for Tet, Vietnamese New Year, start two or three months before the
actual celebrations. People try to pay off their debts in advance so that they can be debt-
free on Tet. Parents buy new clothes for their children so that the children can wear
them when Tet arrives. Because a lot of commercial activities will cease during the
celebrations, people try to stock up on supplies as much as possible.
In the days leading up to Tet, the streets and markets are full of people. Everyone

is busy buying food, clothes, and decorating for their house. Each family prepares some
special foods for the holiday. Those who live far away from home will try to come
home to celebrate Tet with their family. Vietnamese families usually have a family altar
to pay respect to their ancestors. During Tet the altar is thoroughly cleaned and new
offerings are placed there.
On New Year’s Eve, each home is thoroughly cleaned and decorated with flowers
and offerings for ancestors by the night before Tet. Many people stay up until midnight
to welcome the New Year or go to the pagoda to pray for luck, prosperity, and
happiness.
In the morning, actual Tet celebrations begin. The first day of Tet is reserved for
the nuclear family. In big cities, the streets are usually empty as most people stay at
home or leave the city to visit their close relatives in the countryside. Usually, children
dress their new clothes and give their elders the traditional Tet greetings before
receiving the lucky money.

Tapescript
I’ve known James for 25 years. We first met when he moved to my town. He went
to a different school but we became friends because he lived next door to me. We’ve
known each other since then, but we haven’t kept in touch all that time – we lost
contact with each other when I moved to Scotland in the 1970s for my job. I didn’t go
to James’ wedding but he came to mine. And now? Well, I’ve been living here in
Brighton since 1999, and these days I see James about once a week, usually in the park
where I walk my dog, or in the pub for lunch with another friend that we’ve known for
about the same length of time. We haven’t been doing that for very long but it’s good to
get all of us together.
