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?

Strange NamesFor some reason or another my family just can't seem to use people's real names. I have an uncle called Binks (real name Gordon) and another called Sam (real name Rodger). I only ever call my brother Padge even though his real name is Andrew. And to top it all off I am called "Greeny-groggs" - although this might be something to do with the fact that I used to wipe my snot on the wall.
Oh yeah and my Dad is called Baldy - even though he still has hair (this might be something to do with the fact that he is Ginger and we just hope that he might have the dignity to let it all fall out).
