Weird TraditionsTalking with a friend yesterday about school dinners, she suddenly said, "We had to march into the dining room behind the School Band... except on Thursdays." Since all of us were now staring, she qualified this with, "...on Thursdays there was no wind section. It was a tradition."
What weird stuff have you been made to do "because it's a tradition."

Touchy touchy feely feelyWhilst on every Ski holiday (esp in France) all the group plays a novel game called touchy touchy feely feely - Now, the French have a certain perchant for wearing some hideous all in one Ski outfits, bumbags, silly hats and (hopefully) monoski's or the like.
The Game is this: Spot any of the mentioned items on a skier, you then attempt to get as close to them as possible - You then have to "stroke" the garment, points awarded for style, manner and the pleasure on your face when performed. This sometimes involves hacking your way down a slope after one of the all-in-oner's, or best a group. Also involves fighting thru the ski life queue to get one.
Best effort was a man decked in full all-in-one day glo yellow nastiness, a bumbag...and the first mono-skies of the holiday! My friend acquired double points by shuffling up to him, gave him a bear-hug and said he wanted some meaningful huggles in his best french. They were both men.
