Drove down from Leeds first thing to get to Stafford car boot for 9am to surprise my old man doing his usual round of the car booters. My daughter came with me, and treated both of us to coffee and a bun at the village fete near Milford Hall this afternoon. Scorching hot weather, about 32C there, with a quite breathtaking demonstration of belly-dancing by a most charming group of middle aged ladies clad in rainbow colours. I almost overlooked the tombola. Milford On The Hill!?! Milford south of Stafford, just on the edge of Cannock Chase. The buns were top-notch too. |

Lovely day with my kids. Took Em swimming in the morning and for a walk around attinghampark in the afternoon. They bought me some lovely espresso mugs (that I didn't need) and got up at 6 just to make sure I was awake They wanted to make me breakfast but I would have spent more time clearing up after them. Bless Reminds me of the nationwide advert.......it costs on average £250k to bring up each of the kids. Thanks for the mug. |

Shit... I got a half arsed attempt by the wife.
Mothers day.... Cooked breakfast in bed by the kids (6-10 years old, myself helping), lie in as I got the kids ready, afterwards a meal to relax with, gifts that we spent a few days around the area in different shops for necklaces etc.
Fathers day, woken up that she is going out. I had to look after the kids, get them dressed etc (normal days routine). Kids said later on, oh yeah we forgot it was fathers day and I laughed and said when we come back i'll get my stuff then and we can enjoy it together. Helped out in church etc... was bought lunch on the premise that I by dinner for us all when we surprise our friend for their birthday on Tues (I normally pay for it anyway) and then later whilst helping set up she decided to set up the "surprise" whilst I am hanging out of my arse pushing things around and hanging things up at evening service... It annoyed me that I had little time to enjoy opening the cards as I was setting up and they all had to go back in the shopping back..... and then look after the kids later again.... Fuck her!

Bugger all this year again. I've reached the conclusion that my son has forgotten he has a father. (despite my best efforts).

My two lads both in their early 30's have sent me cards. My wife (together with some money from my lads) however has bought me (well the two of us) a weekend in Paris to watch the end of the Tour de France - brilliant !
I'm a big cycling fan so really looking forward to it !

My dad loves call of duty, so I got him that Infinite Warfare Legacy Pro Edition with the steelbook and season pass which comes with Modern Warfare Remastered. Good job he does like games because I'd be buggered on what to get him if he didn't He always after the ones he hasn't played and he always gets a lot of time out of them. He had WWII for his birthday. Drops hints when he sees adverts on tele for them |
