The inevitable "What are you doing/getting for Dad's day" question

So what are ya’ll planning for Father’s Day?

Answer #1

We were about to throw away my husband’s much loved but finally demolished work boots (he had them for 20 years). I suddenly had the idea that the boys could take one each and plant it up like a plant pot, and they’ve filled them with hardy alpine plants from my collection. Today they’re each going to make a special tag to go on the laces, to wish him a Happy Father’s Day - I think the boot plant pots should make a funny gift, and a recycled one too!

For my Dad - I’m going to be with him, as I’m visiting him and my mum, who’s still very ill in hospital. I’ve got him a French card with lots of wine bottles on it (appropriate) and I guess I’ll take him out for a meal. He hates me making a fuss and normally says not to give him anything, but I think this year he really deserves some recognition for all he’s doing for my mum.

Answer #2

My dad wants a gym membership so we are getting that for him, we are lucky and have a really nice gym right beside our house. And we are going to KFC for dinner, he loves it there.

Answer #3

A phone call- we live on opposite sides of the world, and he appreciates calls more than material things.

Having said that, I also bought him a ‘Ducti’ brand wallet (a wallet made out of Duct Tape) for when he comes to visit me in August.

Answer #4

I don’t have a dad, grew up w/o one, so probably nothing as usual. sigh

We are going to my boyfriends parents house to have Fathers Day dinner :)
