Not being a dad I got nuffin' . I went out to visit my old bloke but didn't get him a present. The only thing I can give him that he needs now is my time. So I sat there and smiled while he told me the same old stories again .
Yeah...sorry...I got a scope (it was only a little one honest) so I put my hand up for the bad weather over the weekend. It looks nice in Sydney at the moment but as each hour goes by there's more and more cloud
It was a Celestron Nexstar 80 GTL for the record - it's going to be my travel scope...only...it's a bit bigger than I thought !
I'm very pleased with my present. It's one of those Logitech Harmony Universal Remote Control units. Press one button and all devices start lighting up and doing stuff. Much better than having to pick up four remotes to accomplish the same task.
I was guessing you were describing a dementia issue. If so, well then, you're like the rest of us who spend/spent considerable time interacting with a parent with dementia. In my view it is not easy and tests the patience of many beyond its limit.

Sigh... first time I've had a brand new telescope in 25 years (ie that I didn't make myself).
