Freddy 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."

This ought to be put on Childline or similar
Just to prove to abused kids that no matter how shit a life they are having, there is still light at the end of the tunnel, don't do anything stupid, as there ARE some genuinely nice people in the world.
I must admit reading this got to me. You and DG both must be remarkable people to know all this, and still be living your lives and not being bitter. I would be serving time for inserting a carving knife into everyone who either did, or knew about, the deeds being done.
