Father's Day tomorrow, my DP’s first one. I still haven’t wrapped the gift or written the card. I bought them on Monday. For Mother’s Day he got me a funky pigeon card with a photo of baby that said “Mummy, I love you to the moon and back” so I have a bar to meet. Can’t remember the gift at all. What’s everyone got planned?

@BakeOffRewatch well I don't know if this passes the MN line but he:

Pros

  1. is not married/separated
  2. has a job/career
  3. has his own home
  4. organised the date
  5. very funny outgoing and is keen to plan adventures out
  6. has not sent any dick pics, asked for nudes
  7. asked me lots of questions rather than just talk about himself
  8. very attentive

Cons

  1. we split the bill (I accept I'm old fashioned)
  2. is one inch taller then me Confused (it's ok as I'm not a smurf but I do like a tall man).

@BakeOffRewatch

aww, 1st Father's Day! so sweet!

I haven't got DH a gift, this week has been nuts so kinda forgot to buy an annual dad t-shirt. I confessed. he's not fussed; I'll get him one next week.
younger ones will make him & FIL some cards tomorrow morning.
PILs are coming for lunch

UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa · 19/06/2021 19:35

Nothing big planned for Father's Day, as DH does not care. Just hanging out with the three of us, and we might go for a nice long walk (around the football schedule, of course).

We're seeing DH's parents in their garden tomorrow. We haven't seen them for almost two years thanks to the pandemic. No human children here, I'm afraid.

That will be a lovely 1st father's Day. What gift did you pick out?

This is my DPs second, as DS was born a couple of days before father's Day last year. But this is the first year of presents. I got him a set of 9 magnets with photos on, they've come out great too. Forgot to pick up a card, oops

I think I just saw that photo in the people are completely stupid thread? Too much mumsnet …

I am intrigued by this annual dad’s T-shirt, what qualifies as one @ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba? Your day sounds lovely @UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa, I’m sure he’ll care once the baby is old enough to do something from their own intent! @NigellaSeed happy recent first birthday for your little one! I just got a photo frame that says wonderful father from Clinton’s and printed a photo from my phone at boots.

@featherbird how old is he? That’s a good list, and balanced the right way between pros and cons! Is he hot though?

UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa · 19/06/2021 20:29

Will catch up on the actual posts, but just posting now because I can.

OP posts:
NigellaSeed · 19/06/2021 20:31

@BakeOffRewatch - that's nice, he'll love that. Father's Day will definitely get harder once they've already had a photo frame, a mug, magnets and a mouse pad. Then what??? Lol

@FeatherBird meant to add to my last post, woohoo on a second date.

BakeOffRewatch · 19/06/2021 20:34

Whoops sorry @AutistGoth, missed your post. Hope the weather holds for your long awaited garden meet.

Please tell us more about your non human children?

featherbird · 19/06/2021 20:35

@NigellaSeed @BakeOffRewatch
Well would say he is very handsome at early 50s (I'm late 40s) but I perhaps wouldn't use the word 'hot'.
But I'm thinking that is a good sign as usually the 'hot' guys don't last a minute as the have a queue of women waiting for attention.

UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa · 19/06/2021 20:36

Getting so close to the last hundred!

@featherbird I think it’s promising you share how you wish to spend your time, adventures and going out. And that he’s shown a keen interest in you by taking initiative. I think don’t dismiss your need for traditional aspects, it’s just as important as the other stuff. It’s how you spend your every day with your partner.

One of my DP’s pro points is that his grandad in his 90s was still hot (don’t judge me). Unfortunately yes, you’re right, his grandmother had to tolerate a lot of straying and other issues, I don’t know the full details.

NigellaSeed · 19/06/2021 20:42

@ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba omg! That's such an awesome tradition! Love it

@FeatherBird, need more of a visual - what's the closest celeb look a like?

My husband would LOVE those. Massive gamer, Star Wars geek, Marvel Cinematic Universe fan. Why didn’t I think of that! Too late for this year…

Less than a hundred! But this is such a corner of MN. I'm torn lol
