Re: traditions and habits
Not strange or wierd, but I love a nice home cooked roast every Sunday.
Fella hates it n always asks why we have to have it every Sunday, I dunno, we just always did when I was a kid

Re: traditions and habits
I always put the loo seat/lid down, it gets on my nerves if it’s left up these days. Originally started doing it as I heard it was supposed to make money come your way…trust me, it doesn’t work

I heard that you should keep the loo seat down so your money doesn't go out of the house.....well I don't know about you but I don't throw my purse down the lav.

Re: traditions and habits
I always do the washing up in a specific order too.
A for traditions - we have one of going up the the Kirkstone Inn between Christmas and New Year for a hot chocolate.

Blimey, isn't that in the Lakes?
That's a long way to go for a hot chocolate, Willow.
