Well, Dad got an omelette sandwich for breakfast, followed by cards and gifts of drawings, home-made vouchers (wash car, extra-long cuddle etc), World Cup choccies, World Cup book, 2 t-shirts and an England 3 lions air freshener. Then when it started to rain, we took him out for a lovely wet walk in our refurbished South Park! Now Dad and son are slobbing out on the sofas watching 22 men chase a ball! I think it's been a successful 1st Father's Day!
well hubby got 2 tshirts, england based. from sons and 2 cards. had a lie in then we help at our local car boot to off we went. he is not slobbing in fronr of footie and i am giving him peace tonight by going to bingo!
my dad got rather a lot as is alos his 60th birthday! so we (me, bruv and sis and all) took him out to dinner at really posh hotel yesturday, dab radio thing, tshirt and dvd collection, cds etc
really spoilt!
We've had a very strange and hard fathers day this year. I went out on a ladies night last night, got in at 3am very very drunk, still feeling ruff!!! We had a big row and spent the rest of the day ignoring eachother!! Kids got him a cd and made him some lovely cards so at least he should have some nice memories of today.
i personally would just love a home made card and a lie in, but although i say this it never happens (on mothers day) then am grumpy but cheerful because of pressies etc. i do think that these days are getting way over comercial, and another "expence"
Daughter had her Dad plus brother and wife came down from London for a nice lunch.It was also grandsons first time to wish his Dad a Happy Father's Day(he is a month!) A lovely relaxed day then back home for the football!
