    EO -<spluttering> '20 pounds ? EACH ? I havn't got fifteen pounds, and even if I did have ten pounds I would'nt be able to afford to give you five. Here, take two quid and give a pound to yer brother'

      Father's been dead for a couple of decades now so I never really paid much attention to father's day. Mrs MUN normally gets something and has the children (currently 4 and 20 months) sign it or something.
      However, it is the same day as the sister in law's (late) birthday party this year so it will probably get forgotton about.

            Suity's wife dreads this day.

            Every year she gets him a small 29p 'Happy Fathers Day' card from the local shop & pops it on the side of the bed for Suity when he wakes up. Meanwhile the kids are downstairs, big presents & cards in hand waiting excitedly at the door for the milkman to arrive.

              I like Motorhead, the boy likes Iron Maiden so we're off to Download. Win-Win.
              My subconscious is annoying. It's got a mind of its own.

                You should be thinking of the environment before you do this:

                Even worse you are promoting bands that do this:

                      While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
