Every year, without fail, my dad claims he doesn't want anything and "don't you dare go to any trouble" whereas we all know the emotional fall-out which would ensue if anyone forgot.
The Husband on the other hand has no such qualms about being treated to something nice from Caitlin and Ieuan which doesn't cost him anything (for a change) and which doesn't involve at least an hour of arduous physical activity.
Here's a lovely idea from www.photofairytales.co.uk - a print that says everything your kids want to say to their dad (or their grandad). I know lots of dads say they aren't too keen on 'mushiness', but really they're soppier than a puppy at heart!
Ieuan has his dad to thank for this cunning robot disguise |
