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?

I have familyover in America. Georgia I think - somewhere where they shag relatives anyway.
But yes, despite having never met them they insist on sending us a family newsletter every sodding year. But this year - this morning in fact, we did not get a newsletter, oh no. We got a DVD!
And sweet giddy Jesus after a bottle of fizzy pop are they ever hicks. They actually live on a proper farm. The patriarch (some several times removed cousin I guess) is called Lee. The highlight of the year? Hiring two farm hands, both of whom are called Al. Seriously - that was the high point of their year. You should have heard his wife Gladys doing a running commentary:
"Here's farmer Lee wit' two Als!"
Woop woop! End of the QOTW soon!
