Fathers Day

Got my card this morning and a bottle of Cool Water, took the wean to the park, and then back for a wee cargo. My older bhoys are making me tortizzas later.

It's no a bad wee day really.

 

That's really sad mate. I don't know much about it but I've seen you mention him a few times.

I've been thinking about my old man myself, no doubt as the night wears on I'll play some of his favourite tunes and have a wee moment.

 

Not seen my dad yet because he's working away.

Was going to send him a text but i don't know if "Happy Father's Day!" is a bit insensitive considering he just lost his dad last week.
hmm...

Might just leave it and see him when he gets back. He's never been one for fathers day anyway.

 

My mrs went bonkers the day weans were making me breakfast (14 & 9) left the place like a bomb site breakfast not to bad though

When down to see my old man took him out for a few beers good wee day he's 77 and stil pretty fit hope I am the same at his age


...... Just in my 14 year old asks for a fiver and my 9 year old says "if he is getting a fiver I want one "

Back to normality I see in the house

 

Bit of a bitter sweet day for you. I'm sure it makes you cherish everything a little bit more.

 

1st one I've been away from my daughter since splitting wae the ex,got a wee text saying I've go you a little present and a card was like a swift kick to the baws

 

1st one since my dad passed away in February.

Never really did much the last few years because of his condition, just took him some sweets usually, so doesn't feel much different this year.

 

Got my dad a card and sweets. He complained that he couldn't eat the sweets because he's on a diet and then he moaned about the card. Don't know why I bother:smiley-laughing002:

 

Went to the pub for lunch with the wife and kids, although we did have to drag my 16 year old out of his pit to get him to go.
Like Paul we went via the cemetry as our eldest girl is no longer with us (cant believe she'd be 17 now)
My old man died 30 years ago, ironically on Fathers Day, so no doubt I shall raise a glass to him later.

 

Went up to the grave earlier, that's the 3rd Father's day without him, managed to finally get a stone to lay down as there wasn't space left on the original one there which was nice seen as it's father's day, got an empty house for a bit so I thought I'd listen tae some of his songs

 

It's my old man's 60th this week n' all. Bank balance has taken a kicking!

 

Got a card fae my 4 weans this morning,Took them oot and treated them to a toy each, bought the missus a scarf and wine and mysel a few beers for tonight.

Paul67...that's heart wrenching mate. * Bless
For all members who've lost their fathers or loved one's..I can't imagine what'd be like without him,I'm very fortunate to still have my dad,Heaven forbid if anything ever happened to him.
Cherish the memories bhoys and try and have a good day...* Bless

 

3 years gone my old man this year, we weren't particularly close, but I always raise a wee glass on days like today, think it's only right.

 

I'm the same. Only got to know my old man near the end.

Still yer auld man though.

 

Bought him a couple of cans and a card.

 

First fathers day for me the misses brought him in to wake me up ( he's 9 month ) so not got a clue but it was nice all the same

I will go sort ma da out tomoz

 

Good times mate enjoy them.

Got a pair of jeans fae the eldest and a pair of combats fae the youngest.

 

Got my card and a nice shirt from the weans,then had to fly off to Germany
So sitting in a hotel in Mannheim feeling depressed.....

Wondering what the * am doing here.....:smiley-laughing002:

 

Go to Heidelberg, great place!

Dont really do anything for Fathers Day, loads of birthdays/anniversaries near this time anyway
