You know when kids have finished brushing their teeth they put the brush under the tap and then suck all the water from it? Probably not, but when I was younger I thought that you could only do that 5 times if you were 5, 6 times if you were 6, and so on, if you did any more your toothbrush would be taken away from you. Obviously.
