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?

My dadWas French, and had loads of brothers and sisters, some living here in England, most in France. This meant we got to go to loads of family weddings over there.
Every time, without fail, my dad would get drunk and lose his false teeth, and so the ritual would begin - us kids running about in the dark garden, giggling away looking for the errant gnashers.
Ah, those were the days...
