So, this is the first father's day since the wee man was born and I was going to get a mug with baby's hand prints from All Fired Up for my husband.


I then suggested we get that for the grandads and therefore, can't get it for husband any more!!! (True baby brain moment).


Any ideas? (This is a present from baby to daddy)

Well really it's from you as the baby is too young to know who the hell Daddy is! Fathers day is extremely artificial anyway. I should know. I am one. Thank god they pay no attention to it. But if you want to be soppy about it just get him something he likes. You don't need to ask anyone for help with that as you know him best!;-)

Don't think it matters if Grandad's got it too- last year we made a batch of mugs for Daddy, Grandma, Grandpa, Great Grandma, Great Grandpa. My OH loves drinking from his mug and E's feet look so small now!


There are lots of ideas on Turprint- keyrings, fridge magnets etc- quite sweet!

Twisted & twee (online but local co) does a great line in 'pint' tshirts for dad with 'half pint' long sleeved tops in contrasting colours for the wee one (esp. suited to little boys I'd say). Cotton is really nice quality too. Unfortunately, I already bought my husband a set for his birthday in may so alternative suggestions are v helpful!!


Ps. Some brilliant fathers day cards in postmark!

The fathers day presents I have received from my eldest daughter is to spend a few hours doing something together,

we have eaten on a ship on the thames,

had the day in Kew gardens

and another at RHS Wisley,

went to the new-ish art gallery with the wobbly bridge,

none of these presents cost the earth,

but we do have memories of them all which would not be the case of a gift.

    • Another glowing recommendation for Keith. We’re incredibly grateful to EDF for helping us find Keith - I had lots of other quotes from companies who were upselling the work we needed, whereas Keith was very friendly, honest, knowledgeable and competitively priced.  He was incredibly communicative through the whole job and carefully thought through his approach. He did lime mortar repointing along with some brick and masonry repairs, and did everything to a very high standard. We could absolutely trust his advice. He’s lovely to chat to and very respectful of neighbours, clearly communicating when there would be noise or mess. He organised the scaffolding company who were also excellent (Reliable Scaffolding). They worked around limited parking and were prompt to take down the scaffolding once the work was finished. The scaffolding was also much cheaper than other quotes.  Couldn’t recommend Keith enough and we already have him booked in to do another job for us. 
    • If you mean the joinery firm that made windows and doors, it closed down several years ago and a private house was built on the site.
    • I’ve been looking at their website from time to time over the last few years and I was sure that at least one loaf - the signature sourdough - is supplied by the BreadBread bakery who are at a lot of markets at weekends and who used to have a small cafe bakery shop in Brixton Market. I used to go there specifically to get their bread.   They are also affiliated with Franco Manca.  That was the first FM, co-founded by Bridget Hugo, who died last year. BreadBread also supplied the bread for the now closed Crooked Well pub restaurant (but now open under a different name - The Kerfield Arms)  in Grove Lane SE5.  Not sure where the pastries come from but it doesn’t seem possible to choose which ones to have delivered.  I do think they chop and change the suppliers from time to time.  I like the look of the (expensive) crullers they sometimes have plus granola, the savoury pastries and expensive bagels.  They frequently have special offers for a first delivery.  40% is the highest discount I’ve seen so far. I too would be worried about a fox being an opportunist.
    • Yes, they sound excellent.
