Hi all,
who will be receiving "N" gifts for Fathers Day? As I will be at work i have just been given mine, a class 158 2 car DMU, I must have been a good Dad this time!!!!

I got a Dutch Seacow from my 1 year old boy!

Congrats on your first Fathers day Tank, must be a great feeling

My daughter (Kirstie) gave me a bottle of Wolf Blass Red Label tonight, she reckoned I should have it tonight and enjoy it, she must know I'm going to help a friend with his OO layout tomorrow

moogle · June 18, 2011, 11:06:04 PM

I won't be getting anything as I'm not a dad!
But congrats to all who are and who get something for their layout.

Or a bottle of their favourite tipple...

I very much doubt I will get any railway related stuff. I have 4 kids and will be lucky to get remembered by half of them............................

I can wait to see what i get

I hope its n gauge, but if not i bet it will still be good..

Really its all about the sunday roast

I could not agree more, happy with just a card, err indoors mentioned Fathers day when I got out of bed, next thing we were on our way to Kent Garden Railways to buy me a wagon or two, I was totally gobsmacked when she gave me this, still looking forward to the roast though, it will slide down just nice after work and a trip out to buy some wall paper.

Any body that knows this shop will know its tiny and can only just accomodate two or three people as its so crammed out with stock,
well its moving to larger premises in the next two weeks, just next door, cant wait to go and have a good look at what this guy really does have

Farish 8F for me! And to think I railed against Fathers Day as commercialism!!!

Nice to see Dads getting Fathers Day gifts, we in Oz celebrate Fathers day in September and I usually get a nice Train book from one of my Stepdaughters and other goodies from all the others.

lesmond · June 19, 2011, 09:42:13 AM

Moogle & I are in the same boat, no kids = no presents. No dad either, so a few ££ saved there!
