Well these Idiots take the biscuit.

Not many dads below age 18. So they are looking at age range 18-45 that's 27 years. When men can be dad's up to 80-90 and 45 is just ridiculously low. Ignoring over half the possible candidates. Probably dreamt up by some 12 year old exec.

I reckon that what emc's not saying is that s/he's on the look-out for fitties: fabby daddies (is that what we're calling them?)


Also, assume s/he's taking into account the age of said glossy magazine's readership, so for instance an Easy Living reader might be happy ogling a dad in his 30s and 40s, whereas a dad in his 50s and 60s is more Saga fodder, and beyond that, we're really talking about People's Friend, and no one wants to go there. They don't photograph you, so much as call in a courtroom sketch artist.


Also I don't think you really count as a single dad when your progeny's a fully-formed adult themselves. Unless you're John Humphries, that rules out a lot of pensioners. Although Sean Connery, topless, with a baby / kitten - yeah, I'd probably have a gander.

as rosieh said the age cut off is due to the readership age of the magazine in question and of course we want lovely pics of the men with their little ish children, not their adult children ...There must be some single dads in east d as i seem to know an increasing number of single mums but i guess not many want to shout about it a magazine...

A ssssssshite for sssssssssshore eyes misssh moneypenny....

    • My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
    • The MFI was probably where Iceland is now. This post makes me feel very old - went to a 30th birthday party in the garden at the back. Oh to be 30 again! 
    • Anyone upgraded their TV for Christmas?! I'm looking for a smallish Smart TV I can use with earbuds. Not more than 56cm high and  25cm deep. A 26" one used to fit.  Thanks!
    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet.
