Family codes and ritualsFreddy Woo writes, "as a child we used to have a 'whoever cuts doesn't choose the slice' rule with cake. It worked brilliantly, but it's left me completely anal about dividing up food - my wife just takes the piss as I ritually compare all the slice sizes."
What codes and rituals does your family have?

In my familyWe had a similar game on trips to the coast, with much kudos due to the first person to exclaim "I see the sea!".
I was pretty shocked at my youngest sister's grasp of geography though when, having lived in the same Lincolnshire village for several years, she was in the back of my dad's car driving up the A1 a few miles from home, saw an impressive setting sun/cloud effect out to the west and asked in all seriousness "Is that the sea?"

DittoWe used to battle to see the sea.
And Gorleston beats Great Yarmouth any day.
