In just over a week it’ll be Father’s Day, and as per norm I will probably be a totally rubbish son. It’s a mutually reciprocal thing between myself and Dad. We love each other dearly but days like this have a tendency to zoom past us. If it wasn’t for the fact his birthday was part of our house alarm code growing up I doubt I’d remember it at all. But he is just as forgetful. Or as I prefer to say busy!
Genuinely Dad is one of the greatest, he’s never let anything get in the way of my ambitions or dreams. I owe him a massive debt of thanks for this, that and my ever so slightly dry sense of humour. Our fortnightly chats may be little more than a perfunctory ‘Hi how are you?’ run through the basics of how everyone is, and sign of with a manly ‘I love you’, but it doesn’t mean we don’t think about each other daily. Who knows, now I’ve had a chance to dwell on his greatness he may even get a card this year.
But were I better, and were my pockets a smidgen deeper I’d be off to Mr. Porter and dispatching some loveliness his way. Dad’s are notoriously difficult to buy for, but the good folks there have cleared had a look round the office and broken Dad’s into five manageable chunks. Is your Dad sporty, traditional, hipster, a bit Bear Grylls, or more of a Gordon Gekko?
My Dad? Traditionalist!
Without a shadow of a doubt. Glancing through the selections was like opening his wardrobe. Well if I took him out shopping anyway on a limitless budget anyway. So what would Dad be getting? It’s all about the accessories and I don’t mean socks! He has enough and he may be a traditionalist but come on he deserves better. So a Bottega Wallet, Brooks Brothers Regimental Tie, and the Mulberry Belt would be winging they’re way to him in very lovely Mr. Porter wrapping.
Go on spoil your Dad. With some notable exceptions he’s worth it.
