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.

    • I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
    • Always preferred Grace and Favour to the BMC, commented in the past on this and sadly long since gone   
    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
