SSPs
When my sister (and our cousins) were little, my Poppa (Dad's dad for those who don't know the term) would ask us questions and the first correct answer would receive a Small Sealed Prize. When we were little, it'd be whoever sees Hode Monument first gets an SSP, and stuff like that. As we got older they became more difficult, such as 'What does 'crepuscular' mean?'. (it means animals mostly active during twilight, or that light and I'll never forget it). I've earned thousands of these SSPs.
He passed away last week and never coughed them up. I'll miss him.

Christmas!
Ever since I was really little, we've had our big Chrimbo dinner on Christmas Eve night. And then just lounge on the day. We like it, it makes it that bit more special, and since we're older tards (my sister and I) now, its a real bonus for seeing our lot and the outlaws. Plus, I can get shitfaced on the eve and not really have to be compos mentis for the day. Works well.
The reason behind it is even more prosaic. My Mum, after years of having a wonderful, time consuming, hard cooked dinner ready for us at Christmas lunch realised that she was wasting her time. We'd be off finding batteries for toys or just desperate to get back to Mini Munchman or whatever Santa had brought and not give two shits about the incredible meal.
So she shifted Christmas. Genius :D

Video!
Whilst travelling, I stayed at a nice hostel in Tokyo, used by both travellers and locals alike. There was a telly and a selection of videos. One of which was 'Super Rape Fucking'.
Quite an eye opener.
