Ideas for Fathers Day....

I have posted a picture of my father and I on Famagusta beach on my FB profile picture. I am three months old and he is a gorgeous 23 year old, holding me up proudly to the camera. As many of you know, it is Fathers Day on Sunday. If you are short of ideas as to what to put in your card, then read on!

I rescued the card, I sent to him,  a couple years ago as I was blessed with two upper limbs that worked at the time and was packing my parents flat up as they had buggered off to Oz. This is what I wrote....

LIST OF DAD's RESPONSIBILITIES.

1. Have five children...very quickly, (bit mad if you ask me...).

2. Come off shift, sterilise bottles, stay up with sick kids, change nappies, wake WIFE up with cup of tea, go back on shift.

3. Sign up for as many 'short tours' as possible in order to renew acquaintance with Sleep/ Alcohol/ Photography/ Fishing/ Other human beings.


4. Become a Grandfather. Come off shift, sterilise bottles, stay up with sick kids, change nappies, wake DAUGHTER and WIFE up with cup of tea, go back on shift.

5. Buy a really nice Sports Car. Return Sports Car quickly  as Children/Grandchildren need bikes, loans, flats and nursery fees.

6. Buy a really nice house. Return nice House quickly when it becomes overrun by Children/ Grand Children/ OAP's and Illegal Immigrants.

7. Go to Australia for six months, Spend time looking after Grand Children and sweeping up toast crumbs....

8.  In desperation, downsize to a One bed Flat. They can't get me here...mwhahaha....!

9. Become a Great grandfather.  Fly to Spain. Sleep on Floor. Try to renew acquaintance with Alcohol but fail due to being completely besotted with Great Grandchild.  Sterilise bottles, stay up with sick kids, change nappies, wake GRAND -DAUGHTER and WIFE up with cup of tea. Walk granddaughters Dog.
 
10. Stick two pencils up my nose, a pair of underpants on my head and conclude, it hasn't been a bad life!

To the BEST Dad, Grampy and Bampy in the World!

Dad really has done all this and more. He has been a fantastic family man and a few months short of his 70th birthday is an shining example to us all. Yeah I know I am biased but on Fathers Day, why not write something similar to YOUR Dad.

Namaste
