Family codes and rituals
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."
What codes and rituals does your family have?

That's still like that here =/
We've got the darkness, the silence and the no lights because windows above doors. Ours aren't frosted, but what's the point in the first place?? Not quite so bad on the toilet front here though.
It also doesn't help that our house seems to be made of cardboard. I can listen happily to conversations taking place below me and if I bang on the walls they rattle so much I'm scared the houe will fall over.
One day I'll live in a real house with real bricks. That's my dream...
