I sat him down a few years ago to talk about the birds and the bees. He says 'ok dad. What do you want to know ?'

I used to think that. But I'm getting used to him now.

Haven't done the pint bit yet, as he's not 18.

Taking my 18 year old lad to see a concert by a band from my era, and having a pint with him beforehand.
Not sure which I am looking forward to most, to be honest

Anyways, DSOTM tonight. I can hardly wait

Doing that with my 12 year old on Monday

With all the other Bruce's and Sheila's

Haven't done the pint bit yet, as he's not 18. But I've taken him several concerts. And we've played in one - him on lead guitar, me doing vocals. Now that was cool.
