    Lol what does he like?

    I bought my DH a bottle of scotch whiskey, it's one thing he's been wanting for ages.

    My Dad's getting a mushroom growing kit (special oyster mushies, from a specialist farm, as opposed to the Bunnings kits) and our 'Bump', due to arrive anytime, will get DP a battery charger and a set of rechargeable camera batteries.

    Umm well when I asked him what he wanted he said for me to dress up etc lol sorry tmi! But I'm kinda thinking that's not really a present from the children is it haha. Whisky no good, we don't really drink. Hmmm.
    He does like fishing and I'm sure other things but I can't think of another thing!

    Its my DH's first Fathers Day & I'm going to buy him a tree. A Japanese Maple. I thought its a present he will always have(he's a green thumb),it will come to hold sentimental value. He'll be able to say 'this tree was only so big when you were ## months old' iykwim.

    DH got a coffee machine for birthday/fathers day/wedding anniversary (within 3 days of each other), but the boys both bought him a book about Dad's that he can read with them.

    My Dad got a shirt and a book about Grandpa's, DH's Dad got a bunnings photo gift card and a book about Granddad's.

    DF has just asked for me to cook a nice dinner and make pavlova. Thinking he should also get the obligatory socks and undies as well I am thinking of getting him something cooking related though as he loves to cook.

    DH is getting a roll of packing tape to finish packing the house! Once we move I'll get him his own cue for the pool table which is being left at the new place.
