Is this only for real fathers, or are adopted ones included?

I've just opened my pressies... a fishing umbrella and a small bar of chocolate tied to a housebrick and gift-wrapped... aren't I a lucky boy? Laughing

ps. My last umbrella had a wish to emigrate. Forgot to furl it before removing the bag of stones holding it down... last seen heading for France.
If you see it Greeney, give it my regards. Wink

USA too then. Dad`s day has been very nice so far. Hot & sunny, high in the mid 90s today. Just piddling around in the garage. I plan to have a dip in the pool before some steak dinner later.

I had a great father's day. I was at a two day car show with Volvo and caravan - my son and daughter phoned me this morning and my son has got me a caravanning badge I have been trying to find for three years.

Sun shone all day as well!
