Chim Chim Cheree is named after the song Bert (Dick Van Dyke) sang in the Walt Disney classic Mary Poppins, "A chimney sweep's lucky as lucky can be..."  However it is not typically known that in Germany, Austria, Hungary, and other regions the Chimney Sweep is considered an omen of Good Luck if you meet with him on New Year's Day, you will have Good Luck for the year, especially if he would give you his card.

Today real Chimney Sweeps are very rare so meeting one at any time of the year is considered lucky.

A Chimney Sweep is a sign of good luck, wealth and happiness. There are several legends why a Chimney Sweep is said to be "The" ultimate bringer of good luck. One version of the legend has it's origins in old England, where King George was riding horseback in a royal procession. A dog ran from the crowd, barking and nipping at the King's horse. The horse reared, and to the horror of the crowd, almost threw the King! A lone figure, shabbily dressed and filthy, stepped into the road. He caught the horse's halter and calmed the animal.

As quickly as he appeared, the man faded back into crowd. The King, wanting to reward the man, asked his name. No-one knew the man's name, but many told the King "He's just a Chimney Sweep !" The King declared that from that day forward..."Chimney Sweeps should be regarded as Lucky!".

Another story is of a Chimney Sweep who lost his footing, fell from the roof and was hanging from the gutter. A young lady reached through a window and rescued him. They fell in love and married. Over the years, the legend grew into an old European folklore; It is said that if a bride passes a Chimney Sweep on her wedding day, and he plants a kiss on her cheek, she will receive tremendous luck throughout her marriage.

So, the next time you have your chimney cleaned by a chimney sweep don't forget to ask for a hand shake and a business card to experience a little bit of luck.
