Sounds about right. Hope your forks are doing okay.

It's 20 years ago this year since I last spoke to my Dad - a lesson for all your fathers out there - never pick your son up off the floor by his neck and then throw him the length of the kitchen, because when he moves out afterwards you're likely not to see him again, or meet your grandchildren - ever.
I had a great day with my two kids, chilled out, went for a walk and had a Mexican for dinner!

Stuart, I’m so sorry you had to endure this. Never, ever appropriate.

March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

It’s good to hear that you had a good Fathers Day. I did not realize that the holiday was observed in the UK.
But I gotta wonder about that poor Mexican that you had for dinner…
Dining Aztec style?

Re: Happy Father’s Day and the 10,000 post.
Now, that is funny Carlos! Thanks for the good laugh! 
Would he go good with a nice Chianti?
My Dad passed away on May 17, 1979. He was 55 years old and never got to see his grandchildren. He had 12 siblings and was just a marvel with children. I can close my eyes and still see him giving nieces and nephews his shiny Zippo lighter to chew on when they were teething. Wouldn't folks love that today?!? Kids loved him too and he was a great father to me, teaching me so many things.
But dying as young as he did, when I was 26 years old, sort of cheated us both. He missed so many great moments and I missed him through all of them. I never imagined that I would have to go through so many big "things" in my life without him and his counsel. The oddest part now is that I am 13 years older than he ever was.
Lyle and Stuart, I was so touched by your comments and want to say I'm sorry to hear what happened to you both. Floki, my condolences to you; I'm sorry for your loss sir.

Clint - I've very sorry to hear that.
Thanks Guys, Yeah not the best situation, but you just have to roll with what punches life throws at you, literary in my case. Its funny but I don't remember ever seeing him do it to my brother and sister, but then my parents had me when they were very young, 16 & 17 and obviously it was a shotgun wedding. When they started falling apart I got stuck in the middle, and I think a fair bit of resentment from both of them for bringing them together in the first place - like it was my fault!
First chance I got I left and haven't seen them since.
But I've got my own family now - and they're all that matters.

My father's day involved putting first coat of paint on the remodeled bathroom. And going to my daughter's to put up one if those garage hanging ceiling racks.
My dad has been gone since 2015.
Clint so sorry to hear of the recent passing if your dad.
