Am I the only father who doesn't think Father's Day is a proper day? It was invented by Americans last century,and, I suspect, promoted thereafter by Hallmark. Mothering Sunday is a proper day,acknowledged and encouraged by the Church, but I can't bring myself to recognise or want any acknowledgment of Father's (or Fathers') Day.

Morrisons are currently punting the Family Reserve for a tenner. Luckily I have two children. Cheers! :)

Oh no, naomi, not grandparents' day as well? I am a grandfather too, so I'll be cranking up my "Bah! Humbug!" even more now.
