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."

Witches and Judith from Tomorrows WorldWhen at first school, it was tradition when practising handwriting to close up the gaps in the 'a's or 'g's because, according to the senile old bint-of-a-teacher and I quote "the witches will get out". I shit myself for years.
Also, twas tradition between me and my brother, when watching Tomorrows World in the early 80's, to SPIN AROUND REALLY FAST whenever Judith did her talky-talky bits. We didnt like her and this seemed like the perfect way to waste time until Maggie Philbin or the bloke got back on.
Thanks for reading the length, sorry about the girth.
