Family codes and ritualsFreddy Woo writes, "as a child we used to have a 'whoever cuts doesn't choose the slice' rule with cake. It worked brilliantly, but it's left me completely anal about dividing up food - my wife just takes the piss as I ritually compare all the slice sizes."
What codes and rituals does your family have?

Christmas SweetsEvery year my family buys a big tin of Roses chocolates, but the ritual is that we can only open them once the last person has finished work for Christmas. One year my dad brought them to my work as i had a christmas eve shift, and we sat in the car once id finished and opened them up. Another time, me, my dad and my brother went to pick my mum up, with Roses tin in tow!

clicked!I've had some really bad shifts in preceding years, thanks to the magic of minimum wage retail; so this really made me go 'awwwww!'.
