Ok, pleeeease tell me what you are getting your dad!!!!

[Columbia]

Thanks

I am stumped, once again...

Well I got my dad a beach towel and sun cream, a packet of marmite biscuits, a new wallet, and a hat, gloves and scarf set.

(they went to spain last sunday for 7 weeks...hence the towel and suncream...and marmite biscuits! The gloves, hat and scarf is for when he gets back lol!....and he needed a new wallet..)

digital photo frame - shared with my Mum - got same for PIL too

A solid chocolate modle of a Beetle (the car not a bug)

(last year...or was it the year before? .... we were better off financially and I bought him a coffee maker.)

Theatre vouchers and/or (cheap) digital photo frame...

National Trust Membership

a collection of antique civil war books!

coat, photo frame with pics of my sisters brother mine and my sisters dd's, a shredder!
normally he likes the driving cds

Sadly, my dad is no longer around. But, am thinking of getting the family patriarch (and dd's default grandfather) the DVD Box set of 'Planet Earth'. It's currently available via Amazon for less than £20, so very good value.

No dad here any more either but I am giving DH one of these

Michael Frayn - the Human ...somethingorother. Latest book anyway.

lol great idea

the same as what i usually get. a rose that i plant in a pot in the garden with a christmas card which i write to him under it in his memory. treasure your dads forever ladies.

Gordon Ramsey autobiography.

For those who want digi frames, i saw some in argos today for £40.

PIL are having £50 asda vouchers.

no columbia you haven't made me feel bad. I feel bad for posting such a negative comment on your thread. sorry

Oh gosh no. It was a beautiful thing you wrote. Very glad to welcome and include you in the thread It makes us all think how lucky we are...

Am watching this thread with interest as I haven't got a clue either.

Sorry to all those missing their Dads.
AnAngelWithin - that's a lovely thing to do.

Sommelier corkscrew set from John Lewis and an "I Am The Stig" tee shirt from the Top Gear website.

I normally get my Dad, subscription to F1 magazine. Its a good read for a F1 enthusiast, and I know he would never buy it himself. Normally add some chocoalate too. (he is 72 and really hard to buy for). Also he passes the magazines on to me afterwards

I don't get dad anything (since he helped himself to a young mistress 2 years older than my older sister!) but I'm getting DH a shredder.

Got my dad some woodwork related thing - Mortise attachement (if that is how you spell it) he wants it really bad

DH - I got him Prison Break First Series

Tesco clubcard deals are now doing subscriptions ot loads of men's magazines - I'm getting my Dad one for "The Week" at a 1/4 of usual price.
