peanut12 Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 thanks everyone.......no-one in my house has even mentioned it yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 mine got a few cases of lager to drink in the sunshine watching the chooks... what can you get a dad that has everything he wants (me, kids and animal familly obviously) We're not big on the whole commercial thing in this house, so practical gifts that we would buy anyway are normally given..

Helly Welly Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 DD made OH a book of vouchers that said things like "this voucher entitles you to give DD a raspberry on the tummy" and help with jobs, that sort of thing. He specifically asked us not to buy him anything so he was pretty chuffed with his voucher book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 DD made OH a book of vouchers that said things like "this voucher entitles you to give DD a raspberry on the tummy" and help with jobs, that sort of thing. He specifically asked us not to buy him anything so he was pretty chuffed with his voucher book. I should think he was pleased, what a novel and lovely idea!

Guest Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 My anniversary today too 23yrs i got a Radley handbag FANTASTIC! Super present! I did a nice thing for fathers day. I phoned the soon to be ex husband and told him we were nearby and that James had a card for him - which he had made. I asked where we could meet him to give him the card. Then I drove James to the bookmakers to give Daddy the card. Was odd that he wasn't in the pub - mind you it's 200 yards from the bookies. One happy little boy, one pleased Daddy (who didn't really deserve it - I had to make the running here!) Oh and as I walked away - I could see his g/f watching from the window (she works there) so I gave a bit of extra wiggle to my size 12 rear (she is like a BEFORE shot of me - often people have mistaken her for me when they see him with her!)
