Weird Traditions
Talking 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."

Boxing Day
Every year (even b4 i was born) my family have gone down to my Nan and Grandads house for boxing day. Italian family...loads of people..very traditional. Every year i went...except the Christmas just gone.

Me...bein the goodacting girl that i am decided to have a birthday party for him instead. I thought that in our third christmas I really should celebrate his birthday how he wanted to. So down our local. All our mates. Great laugh. Hmph...not so effing great now is it. Recently split up.
