As it’s Father’s Day in the UK today, I thought I would do a little post about my dad.
I have so many happy memories of my dad from growing up.
Setting up my first Scalextrix, learning to ride my bike, playing all kinds of daft games in the garden in summer, water fights. Too many to mention them all that’s for sure.
One that really sticks in my mind was him taking me to buy my first football shirt. Bear in mind it was a Manchester United shirt and my dad is a Liverpool supporter through and through. Anyone who understands football will know what a true sacrifice that was for my dad!
He’s also given me loads of great advice over the years, and doesn’t say I told you so when I ignore it!
Overall, I couldn’t ask for a better dad!
I would like to wish all the good dads out there a very happy Father’s Day, and I would also like to spare a thought for people who’s dads are no longer with them. This must be a very hard day for you all.

Beautiful heart felt post. Hope you had a lovely daddy's day X
Thank you 🙂 We did thanks, hope you did too 🙂
Lovely post and sounds like you have a great dad – taking you to buy a Manchester United football shirt when he is a Liverpool fan is definitely a true sacrifice! Thanks for linking up with #FathersDay2015
It really is isn't it 🙂 He's fab! Thanks for hosting 🙂
Thanks this is a lovely post. I don't have my Dad anymore and it does feel odd on Father's Day. I have a step-Dad which is a nice comfort. You sound like you have a great relationship with yours. Thanks so much for linking up to #bestandworst and please pop back! xx
I'm sorry to hear that, Father's Day must be a tough day for you. Thanks for hosting, will do 🙂
Thanks for sharing a lovely post, I can only imagine how it must feel as I am still fortunate to have my Dad. Thanks for linking up to the #bestandworst and hope to see you again next week 🙂
Me too, it must be a horrible day for those that don't. Thanks for hosting and I'll be there 🙂
Lovely post – and read your poem too – very sweet! My dad is no longer with me but I instead focus on Father's Day between my son and husband so it's all good but thank you 🙂 #FathersDay2015
Thank you 🙂 Sorry to hear about your Dad. I like that you still have a positive view of Father's Day for your husband and son 🙂
Thank you for sharing your sweet memories of you Dad. I dread the day when my father is no longer with us. I am just so grateful that these special men are in our lives. Thank you for linking up to #FathersDay2015
Same here! It's so important to not take them for granted 🙂 Thanks for hosting!
