fathers day

[Hip Priest]

I got a book called Obsessive Compulsive Cycling Disorder, along with some chocolates. I got out for a short, quick 25 miles this morning, and I've since taken both kids swimming. Now I'm sitting on my backside with no plans to move.

Sorry? I think you have got me confused with someone else. I havent been to Halfords in ages.

Oops! You are correct sir! Apologies!

...probably won't be any sign of elder daughter until at least mid afternoon at earliest - and even then she'll just grunt or insult me.

I was wrong on this bit; the first sight I had of her was at 5.30pm when she came thru to eat the meal I had cooked. She failed to speak to me then disappeared back to her bedroom...

got my old man a bottle of Jura, which it turns out he really loves but had a go at me because its expensive lol.
my kids got me a charge spoon! and helped me wash and fit it to my bike (actually they mostly sprayed me with the garden sprayer) they weren't here this morning so thankfully i missed out on being poisoned.
my 5 year old did however make me a card not 10 mins ago, it features flowers and bombs. which are apparently my favourite.
even my youngest son has me pegged as some sort of militant hippy...

Got a large bottle of Gin from the boy, some beers from one of my daughters and the other daughter took us out for a meal, i like Fathers Day.

Lie in until 9.45, wife wakes me with brekkie in bed - bacon sarnie in Ciabatta and egg sarnie in sliced bread along with a nice cuppa.
Kids come in with cards n pressies.
I get dressed n we go bowling then off for Sunday Lunch.

Now too bloated to do anything strenuous so bathe the kids then a movie and early night ( mind starts ticking....)

Edit: and I got a £50 wiggle e-voucher off my 19 yr old
Atsa ma boy.

Just been kidnapped by wife and daughters and told to keep my eyes shut. After a drive that took a lot of turns I didn't recognise I was led into a door to the smell of popcorn. I was allowed to open my eyes to find a seat without knowing what film we were to see. It was MIB3.

Well I got the right Crabbies for my dad. The shop either had Black or Orange. I got him the Black (with there being no original) and he said that it was the one which he liked. It went down quickly enough anyway.

You had to keep your eyes shut for a journey which took you down roads you werent familiar with, you then had to wait in a qeue at the cinema, and you finally were allowed to open your eyes when you got to the seat? Are you sure you werent asleep?

As for the drive, I trust my wife.
She had pre-bought the tickets, so we went straight through to the cinema, me being led with my hands on the top on my daughter's head. Apparently nobody thought this odd behavior.

It was just like a normal Sunday here, out on the bike this morning, feet up this afternoon watching the Moto GP and reading the papers. The Mrs and my two lads got me cards and the lads brought me a pair of short sleeved jersey's.

Got a card and 'I, Partridge' book from the girls today and didn't have to do any washing up! Also got a quick 20 miler in before tea and just watched Snatch with my youngest (20) who hadn't seen it before. All in all a good day. :-)
