What would I like in general? A Yaesu FT 957D amateur radio.
What would I like that my daughter can actually afford? Just to spend the day with her; maybe a movie and supper.

My daughter phoned today and asked if I'd like another bottle of 10 year old Jura.
Of course I said Yes please.

I would like a sleep in for fathers day, I know its not much to ask but thats what I want.
Don't think I have much of the chance though, got a 5 year old and 3 year old, they like to get up early and make noise

Enjoy it while you can. They grow up far too quick these days.
I'd like a Landrover 80 full equiped as a mobile radio shack but I'll probably end up with some nice bottled beers
I'd like to be able to say "You were right, dad". Unfortunately he died in 1974, a little while before I'd figured that out.
I would like to go on a bothy trip with my kids . But i will probably get some aftershave and some beers , still a win win for me .
I don't want anything and likewise my own father doesn't.
It's "Clinton cards day" as he calls it and I agree that it's just commercial pap.

I think fathers day is a great chance to pay someone that usually gets taken for granted the attention that they deserve!! I'm taking my old fella on a wild camp (which he's never done before) which will make his day I hope. As for me my nipper (with the aid of mum) is looking at getting me a BSA airsporter .22 for me to have a plink with so i'm feeling pretty appreciated myself lol

Going camping with the family this weekend. Ideal present would be for the kids to pack all the kit away on Sunday.
Odds of that happening are about the same as the odds of the sun shining this weekend.

Mine too. I'm now 4 years older than he was when he died in 1984 aged 45 of cancer. Scary thought indeed. My step-Dad's not bad, he means well, but we're poles apart. I bought him the boxed set of It Ain't Half Hot Mum on DVD. It's what he wanted
As for my own daughters, it'd be nice to get a phone call. Since the divorce I haven't had so much as a birthday card, though we are in touch a lot. Sending cards is such a chore for them, it's emails nowadays. Letters? Forget it, they're obsolete to the current generation. Nope not bitter though.
I remember hearing a story of a daughter asking a father what he wanted for Father's day, he said a jigsaw. Every year she asked and he replied the same. Soon the top of his wardrobe was stacked with jigsaws of every size with different pictures on the front. And the wood he wanted to cut in his shed was still being cut by hand instead of the Black & Decker jigsaw he asked for every year.
Wishing whatever you get will be given with love. Have a good one with the kids.
I will go to my Dads grave in Salisbury to give it a clean and show my twindles to him, I think I might be getting a rather messy brekfast made by two year olds.
I've got the Bear Grylls autiobiography 'Mud, sweat and tears' coming...don't shoot me down, it'll be a good read whether you like him or not lol
