Fathers Day Gifts
 

Ok, am struggling...............(again)

I have no idea what to get the twins dad for fathers day, does anyone have any sensible suggestions please....

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

oh.... you said sensible, never mind lol

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

I did yes........:D

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Yep........My daughter gave me a mug with pictures of my grandchildren super imposed on the mug....I will get details and PM you.

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Thanks, is it not too late for something like that now though?? Could they do it in time?

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

More than likely not, they send away for them normally

How about Thorntons:D

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

i always think fathers day /mothers day should be gifts that are "made"how about casts of their feet or hands

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Possibly so.....but as the Spanish are constantly reminding me if you wanted something yesterday....why not ask for it yesterday?

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Think Asda do them.

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

My daughter once bought me a glass tankard for fathers day with the inscriptionTHE NO.1 DAD ON EARTH.We had a row 2 days before Fathers Day,so she kept it in her bedroom for a year and then gave it to me.Ah well better late than never.

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

my daughter borrowed money of me last week:eek:
and this week told me she was taking me out for
Fathers Day dinner.. so it looks like ive bought my own pressie
and shes forty :egged:.so things never got better:)

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Nice Tie , Cufflings , Chocolate , Beer , Voucher To Play Golf Or Something , Buy Something He`s Intrested In Like A Hobby , Take Him Out For A Meal. Just A Few Ideas :)

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

i'm ashamed to say that i've bought my daddy nowt for fathers day, we went into Accy together yesterday and i asked him what he wanted and he said 'nowt i've got everything i need' and he has, i bought him some new lamps for christmas and they are still sat in the box that they came in, think i might give him a few of my spuds or some of my pansies ;)

Re: Fathers Day Gifts

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

My dad got a bottle of 12 year old malt whiskey; gave it him tonight so he doesn't have to cart it round at cricket at the weekend.
He told me I shouldn't have but I know he was chuffed, you only get one Dad, one of my best mates lost his Dad to lung cancer today, I can't imagine how that feels.
Chin up Shady.:(

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

What did ya get then Emzy?

Surely not them shoes ya were buying in town:p

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Grrrr.... I wanted those shoes!!
and she wouldnt let me buy purple sparkly ones either :dummy2::(

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

What would u wear them with?!

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

well....i'd obviously have to have a new outfit as well lol

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Now if they were pink and sparkly I could understand it:p

And if ya a size 7 I got some ya can borrow!:D lol

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

ooohh..... yes i am :D

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

What a size 7?!?

Ya big footed so and so:p lol

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Just got mine today, seeing I'm an avid reader I'm easy to please, got a novel the Crystal Skull by Mamda Scott, never read one of her's before

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Got him a ring that says "dad" on it (oh how original lol)

And the shoes are great, was going to get the multi-coloured ones (might still do yet) but not too sure what they will go with

Anyway............Were you stalking me????

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

No....she was stalking me :p

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

My dad has several hobbies, and he is very specific when buying stuff, so if you buy him pressies, you usually get the wrong one, we agreed years ago to give him money and he buys his own, or puts it towards his holiday fund, boring but easy, and suits him best.

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Tomorrow i'll go down to asda or tesco and buy a bunch of red roses for my dad.

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Use Snapfish regular and must say they are very good...........:D My little `uns got me a spanking new Firetrap belt , gave it me today, so i`m chuffed with that, got my dad a expensive bottle of wine which i know he`ll say was a waste of money.........

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Lol, yes cos I walked past u 2 in the Arndale, recognised Emzy and had no idea that it was Emma stood there too:p til I get a message on here saying Hi! I saw you today lol

So yeah, I was stalking both of you:p

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

I have used snapfish a couple of times but not to happy with them this time i made an order on 21st may and only just got it today it was to be delivered to be collected from jessops! i had to chase the order then have it re-ordered they were very lucky to get my order here today!

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Same here treasure them while you have them

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

I did do Bernie.

I would say to all who still have their dads/stepdads you dont know what you've got till he isnt there. Tell him you love him and have a joke and a laugh.

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Its funny you should say that Bernie the first thing this morning I looked at the photo of my parents that hangs on the wall, your right you should treasure them whilst you have them

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

well my dads buggered off this morning before i even got chance to wish him a happy fathers day...huh ;)

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

I didnt get to see my dad today before he went for an evening meal, and only saw some of my kids briefly this morning, through no fault of my own I had to work, (poor organisation on anothers part), the best part is, the day was a complete washout as far as work was concerned, so much for helping out! (it was unpaid work on fathers day huh).

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

i've never heard of snapfish - i'll have to have a peek

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

amazing what you find out on here isnt it ? :D

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

snapfish actually looks quite expensive. Maybe there might be something in Accrington offering better service soon ;)

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

i know there is a place in ossy mills - not sure what he prints onto but i know he does canvasses - they are from £25 i think for approx 30x40 canvas
might be worth visiting there -only about 30 minute wait depending on how busy he is

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

I got a photo framed of my two grandchildren & a bottle of red wine:D

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Can i just say Thankyou to my children for the chocs and slippers and the lovery mug with pics of the grandchildren all round its loverly thankyou Lynn(mummiboo),Paul (Direct DJ) and Steven you all made my day.
Oh and thanks for the card Lynn &Mick(daddiboo) Paul & Steven did get me a card but when they went to write it out they found they had picked a Birthday card up by mistake so i will have to wait till my birthday for there card:D:D

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Ahh you dont need to say thank you! its our way of saying thank you to you for just being dad! We love you loads. xxxxx

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

I got a fancy little carrier bag with dad written on the side, filled to the top with shredded yellow tissue paper, not much of a gift you might think, until I reached into the bottom and found a mug with piccies of my granddaughter on it.

Oh and I got a card as well though for some reason I didn't find the £20 note I expected to be in it!

:(

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Kids don't do £20 notes Less, only if they are receiving:D

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Looks like we had lots of mugs for dads this year! lol

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

I got a card from my son for Father's Day .. stating you have been Mum and Dad to me ... yes, I have, but brought me to tears with the acknowledgment.

By the way Jamie .. Happy 26th Birthday .. xx

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

Kate a very caring lad, I am sure you are very proud.

My daughters thought for some reason that I needed sweet smelly stuff from Marks......Shower gel, Body Spray, After Shave...the works.
I have come indoors many a time from a hard day on the treadmill and been greated with the loving expression 'You smell like a Pow Cat'.
I got these presents early and dutifully used them all.
Mrs Meldrew said, only today......You smell wonderful.
My wife stopped patronising me a few years ago.
I'm begining to look in the mirror once again.
I am not sure if the compliment was meant for me or for my daughters for buying the stuff for me in the first place.
Women can't be trusted...........even the older one's :globwhore

My Gradson's birthday today.........Happy Birthday Thomas 9 Years

Re: Fathers Day Gifts
 

What a lovely thought
