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."

Oh god more traditionsI have to say most of these posts would qualify as OCD, mine included, but I have more.....
[1] Everytime I hear an ambulance I am compelled to say.....
"He'll never sell ice cream going that fast"
[copyright Morcombe & Wise]
This is in no way anything to do with the tired old bandwagon re; no ice cream = Greensleeves!
[2] When I hear a bell or alarm, such as those on domestic appliances, regardless of where and when, I always say...
"Tea's ready"
even the kids have picked up on it now.
