I have just been woken by my 2 beautiful kids and been
spoiled rotten by a breakfast in bed :)

Normally my body clock gets me up about 5ish but I was
up until 1am in the dome....so sleeping in can have
it's benefits :D

I hope you alll get treated well today Dads!

Fathers Day reminds me of my 2 baby girls when they were toddlers. They're in their mid to late 20s now, gone their seperate ways and although I see them regularly (and will today) I miss them something cronic when they were growing up at home with Mum and Dad.

It's a pity they have to grow up, hey Claude? :sad:

Mine 6yo gave me her gift this morning.

Happy Fathers Day!

Unfortunately for me Fathers Day in the USA is on a different day than the one "Down Under"...my family does not let me "double dip" but every year I try!

Happy Father's Day to all the dads !

I got spoiled this morning, my eight kids couldn't wait to give me hugs, kisses and my present.

You can imagine my surprise when I opened it to find a IYA09 Commemorative Coin set.

:cool:

Had a quiet day @ home with my parents, nice to see my dad enjoy himself on Father's day, especially considering it'll probably be his last.

Happy fathers day to everyone else.

Had a fairly good day.
Started with chocolates in bed.
Apart from the various bits from the school stalls, I got the box set of Indiana Jones. Love these films
Then off to the AFL final between Collingwood & St Kilda with a ticket paid for by my 2 sons.
Would have been a better day if Collingwood had of won, but you can't have everything.

All in all a good day.:)

Wouldn't Fathers Day be nice if the kids ever remembered, :shrug: I have three, and they are old enough to know, they have kids of there own, but dad is only around when they want something. :sadeyes:

I don't expect presents, but a call would be nice. :sadeyes: nothing today :sadeyes:

Leon :thumbsup:

Geez Alan, what a bugger and of all days too!
Hope you got through it all O.K.

I thankfully had a much better day with my brothers family and parents over for lunch, the Mrs treated me like king for a day and the kids had a ball.
Hope all you other Dads had a happy fathers day too!

Cheers Daniel.

Had a top day yesterday with my wife & kids. Started off with bacon & eggs on the BBQ, some great pressies - a Simpsons "Duff" mug, some chocolate and a copy of Richard Dawkins' "The Greatest Show on Earth," spent some time with my Dad and then finally another BBQ for dinner - Delicious T-Bones and snags with a supermassive baked potato (with a Beer to wash it all down of course). All in all a great day.

I took mum out to visit dad in hospital. We took him on a drive up to the new tourist place at the top of Bulli Pass and to another lookout then had a little picnic. Dad really enjoyed it. He told me a month ago that he would never leave the coast again and yesterday commented that he never thought he would see that view again. We don't know what the future holds for him, he might come home but I think he will go to a nursing home, so we try to treasure every chance we get to enjoy something with him. I felt great on the way home but knackered from pushing the wheelchair about.

Sorry to hear that, Leon. This can happen in this busy, rush-about lifestyle everyone seems to have these days. I'm sure when you hint to them next time, they'll get the guilts.




Congrats Doug, what a special day, mate.
