Fathers Day

[Marty.A]

At the moment whenever I spend some time with my dad and he's not in pain is a great day for me so looking forward to fathers day and having the whole family around to lift his spirits.

Thanks everyone for giving me an insight to something I can only dream of having one day. Appreciate all the replies.

This post reminds me of my only fathers day fishing trip. My father passed on some years ago but when I was growing up and a mad keen fisho he was not the slightest bit interested apart from eating what I caught. One fathers day though I persuaded him to take me fishing. At the time we lived in Casterton so went out to the Glenerg River at a place called Roseneath and he managed to hook a Brown of at least a kilo on a wonder wobbler - a very good fish for the Glenelg in those days. He stood on a log with the trout dangling over the water yelling out for me to come and look. You guessed it - it fell off! That was the last time he took me fishing! My kids were taken fishing though.

A couple of tacky gifts from the kids from the school Father's Day stall. Show lots of appreciation & surprise, then it's the same as every other weekend. Steve's got it nailed!

Kids will be giving me their artworks which will turn into little treasures for me. Brekkie in bed and a pub lunch in the afternoon. Day off from chores too I expect.
