Buying gifts for fathers

All dads have those funny habits of snoring, sleeping, dancing, farting, and being scared of mum (yes, they are). But, they provide the security and leadership every family needs.

They can be stern, tell you off and shout at you more than you would like. On the other hand, who will get the takeaway, pick you up, and even carry your dance costume or muddy football boots? If any one deserves a cheeky gift it has to be your cheek old man!

So, who's your daddy? Is he a teacher, preacher, comedian, extrovert, introvert, follower, or just a plain, older version of you? It's no wonder it's so difficult to shop for him! However, one thing all dads have in common is that they are tough guys with a big heart. We know there is always a special spot in your heart reserved for the first man you loved and admired.

So, it's important to find a gift that matches his personality (or he'll be more grumpy than usual). He won't be too bothered if it's expensive or not, as he probably contributed to buying it. But most of all, get it right and just be ready to feel on top of the world with that cheeky nod of approval. It's what we are all after from our good ole daddy!

"My father didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it." - Clarence Kelland
