when i was little and i was having a bath my dad would always get the flannel and scrub behind my ears. i would say what are you doing and he told me that if i didn't wash behind my ears potatoes would grow behind there. every night i would wash behind my ears and if later i realised i hadnt washed behind my ears i would rush back to the bathroom to clean behind there.
