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."

Saturdays when i was a kidBreakfast: dad would make porridge, upon making this he would take a bowl into mum shouting "MOTHER!" which me and my brother would then copy, while running into the kitchen to get our own.
NOTE: one must be dressed before getting porridge and that INCLUDES SOCKS.
Lunch: Chips from the chippy for lunch, but for some reason we had to warm the plates in a bowl of hot water
Afternoon: Whether the TV was on during the day or not, it would be put on at the end of Grandstand. For unknown reasons me and my brother would feel the need to jump up and down to the music
Tea-time: Hotdogs for tea (well sausages wrapped in bread) while watching dukes of hazzard
Nowadays on the trip from Swansea to Derby it is imperitive that we scream as we're going through tunnels and point out the 'green tree' (a normal tree but lit up green.
Traditions such as these are very comforting
