Forget all the crap that goes with 'Fathers day' and let's just celebrate 'Dad's day',present and past cos i sure do miss mine.
Ski's and a cat of dubious parentage, xx
P.s no personal issues here,just like the music 
x
Wonderful, Skis. I miss my dad too 💕 xx
Penzy,not all Dad's are good and i think you know who i am alluding to but we were the lucky ones and i often hear my fathers words in my ear,normally disapproving of some foolish action i have taken. xx
I know, unfortunately. But your dad (and/or Mum) must have been kind.....someone must have been an example to your warm ways 
xx
Beautiful. Thanks dear brother.
Love it Skis, great words. I lost my father when I was 12 so never had long with him, but still think of him. Carole 😘
Carole,how sad to lose your dad at such a tender age,i lost my mother when i was 15 but i was one of the lucky ones and my dad stayed around for 70 yrs of my life but even that seemed to short. xx
Sorry to interject so rudely, Mikeski, but thought you were 66....or have you been telling porkies!! Lol 😂 xx
Thanks for that skis. I miss my dad too.
Have a happy Father’s Day to dad’s everywhere.
I’m not getting notifications at present so I’m a bit late in replying. Xxxx😘
Happy Fathers day to all Dads, & Mums who had to be Dads. xxxxxx
A very good point there Carino so let's raise a glass to the mum/dad's everywhere,i notice you already have a full glass.... tut tut. xxx
Nice music Skis. We are out to lunch today with son and his wife who live two doors away. Going out anywhere feels like a challenge these days, never feeling that well for being good company. Eldest son is swimming for some cause, 2 and a half miles river swim. In September he is swimming 6 miles for Meningitis, his brother our youngest, had a very close call with that a couple of years ago. Hope you enjoy your day. Love Iris x
This song always makes me cry. Have a happy Dads day everybody x
Shed no tears Irene,we have enough water to contend with though i did glimpse a little sunshine earlier. xx
Lol, you are so funny. The rain is here but so is the sunshine x
Off for my Ct scan soon,maybe they should do my brain instead. xx
Wishing you all the best 🤞
Hope all goes well and you are not there too long. Poor scruffs he will feel abandoned but am sure he will be well spoilt when you get back x
He is a she my love and after a slight deviation to the wrong scanner I am waiting my Sunday dose of irradiation 😊xx
Wow, Did you keep that quiet or is my Memory going. Hope all goes well Carino. Let me know. Besos XXXX
They only phoned me yesterday Carino,somebody forgot to book the scan and i think my consultant escalated it.all done and dusted and after a splendid self portrait in high resolution i am safely home and attending to her majesty Scruffinetta before myself as usual. xx
Well that must be a Record from Phone call to a Very Fast Consultant, On Fathers day, A Sunday, Well done that Man. Well Done you for getting there & Back in Time For her Majesty's Evening Meal, Always Knew You were a Fast Worker. Call you "Zoom Zoom" from now on Carino. Besos XXXX
Ha!ha!ha! Well thats why SHE can wrap you round her little paw. Now that you have been sent to the correct scanner, hopefully you are all done and dusted and are home. Bet its tired you out, rest up your not missing anything, except more rain. Glad i dont have to go anywhere tomorrow. Take care x
Happy father's day to all the dads past present and future. My dad passed away 28 years ago but I still miss him x
So here's to dickinson's dad's day .now that is a tongue twister. x
🤣
Love it ski's. I too miss my dad. Mind you he would have been 100 this year... xx
Snap! My dad would have been 100 this year too. My mum is 99 and still going strong-ish , on her own tho for 14 years so far xx
Wow amazing. My mum passed at 90 6 years ago. x
Dear Bev/lil any old excuse for a nice bit of music,i hope you will demand a posthumus telegram from the palace in memory of your dad. xx
You first ski's ha ha. x
Yes, to all dads, past and present.
Lost mine to a stroke in 2004, and still miss him terribly every day - my best friend, my rock, my courage.
He would have been 101 this year, as would my mother have been too.
His calm, quiet, yet all knowing ways were a wonderful thing, and I was lucky to have had him.
MacColl,he is still here and playing a massive part in your life and those feeling are testimony to that. x
Thanks! Yes, he was rather special ...and my husband and two sons would echo my thoughts too.
Nothing could harm me when he was by my side.
As I said, I was lucky to have had him, and probably luckier still to be able to tell him that and all the things he meant to me two days before he died.
Still feel the need to talk to him, even at my age, and I do still tell him I love him.
Hmmm, Father’s Day. What is that? My own father remarried just 6 weeks after my mother died from bowel cancer when I was seventeen (draw your own conclusions). I have not seen or heard of him since a big bust up over it, nor my younger siblings. My own children? Not a peep from either of them. Sharon is at work. So just an ordinary meaningless day, by myself. I also know that I am not alone, there are plenty of others that this day must bring sadness to as well, there are many orphans out there who are totally on their own.
Don't get me wrong, I have plenty to be thankful for, but sometimes the world is just a great big onion, it stinks!
Funny old World 2 gs, This is why I dedicated today to My Mum, My Dad Died also of Bowel Cancer when I was 4 years old with 2 older siblings and a younger one of 18 months old. My Mum Did remarry later on , but I think too quickly, as in those days it was for Security, She had a Further 4 Children, my (Step Brothers) whom are my Brothers. Anyway, he was never there always drifting off, So my Poor old Mum never got that Security, She did a Grand job with Raising her 8 Children(The Boys had to Learn to Knit also). She Lived to Be 89. Dementia got her in the end. Love n Hugs Hun. xxxx
I rather like the smell of onions and a bit like memories you can always throw away the ones that go rotten and enjoy the ones that don't.
Sorry to hear this 2greys. I didnt have a close relationship with my Dad, which is a shame, we had an argument when my daughter was born and he died when she was 3 months old, so I never got to say sorry. And my daughters father never saw her after I got divorced, he has now died. So it seems thats the way life runs. I try to keep the love I have in my heart and not get bitter, that gets easier as I age. Thanks for the song, it brings back memories. I was 17 when that came out x
That is a sad story,and seventeen is a sensitive age for such tragedy. Do you know your dad's background? I know that some of the characteristics of my dad were due to his own upbringing. As in my mum's case too. She never showed affection, she was brought up in a care home, where the children were ill treated, so she learnt to be tough, never shed a tear. As for Dad, his mum was put in a mental home, around the time of her menopause, and died there of untreated cancer. He and his siblings collected barrowloads of manure from the streets to sell house to house. Plenty of horses on the roads then! How can we judge them? Love Iris x
I consider my self very fortunate I loved my dad and tho he died 11 years ago there are times when I think ‘ oh must tell dad that’
I think the best bit is I was adopted as a baby as were my three non biological brothers. It takes a very special man to bring up other people’s children, and to be very much loved and cherished.
J
Well thanks for that judes and your were fortunate indeed as were your new brothers to have such a special bloke in your lives. x
My eldest son is adopted, our first baby died and I just didn't conceive after that so we decided to adopt. He mended my broken heart, and I then went on to have two more babies, both boys. Realised then we had to use contraception, problem solved! Pleased to say they all got on well together, and live very close, adopted son next door, although youngest is in Sydney. We honestly treat them all the same, love them dearly and feel very privileged. Good luck, love Iris x
Never knew mine or even who he was but I'm sure he would have been a lovely guy whoever he was . I was told he was killed in the war but I think maybe that was a wee fib to hush me up as a young girl 😀 Even now at my great age I can't help wondering what he was like but of course I will never know . Cheers to him anyway🍺
Lovely music. 🤗👍
I have always been a Genesis fan,and Mike Rutherford and the mechanics were an equally talented spin off. x
We were lucky when I think back we had great songs I loved ABBA and many others I think I knew them all by heart ♥ listening to top of the pop's on my little transistor radio 📻 great times. It didn't take a lot to make us happy. 😃 Happy Days 💞XX
Thanks for posting - hadn’t heard that in a while. I hope your scan shows improvement. I had an MRI last weekend for a different problem and the report says ‘unreadable’. 🙁. And I was keeping as still as a statue.
Happy Monday to all of us!!
The radiographer did a thorough job and said he is happy with the images so it is now down to my multi disciplinary team to analyse the results and draw their conclusions.
glad you liked the music. x
Well best of luck with that.Sending love and light 😊⭐️Xx
Another glorious day 
Would people like a \"patient day\" for Bronchiectasis again?
Called: Back In The Day
Moving in Day Next Thursday
