Happy Fathers Day

Happy Fathers day to all out there in Bandit land, hope you get a ride in or at least get to spend some quality time with family.

I managed a small ride this morning, this afternoon I'm off to the footy with my son

Thanks Chook and same for you.
No ride, no seeing our girls. Been watching and hearing the whales from our house. Went to the headland and spotted dolphins, seals and sea eagles.

Happy fathers day to all, and, as my son reminded me this morning, happy grandfathers day!

Our kids were not able to be with us so we did a coast walk in the morning, had a BBQ lunch, watched lats night's WSB race, then a replay of the Le Tour from last night.

Happy fathers day to you as well ............I had a nice relaxing day & the kids came around ...........somebody also drank a bit too much LOL

Fathers day will now become a remembrance day, for me anyway

Yep, same for me this year. Lost my own Dad 8 yrs ago and then lost my Father In Law on the 09th Sept just gone. 
He was living semi independent until about a week ago when he had a fall, went into hospital and never came out. 

You will be missed Dad.

RIP Gerard Michael Kearney.

Condolences truck, take care

Father's Day has by a rememberance day for me for 25 years now, early October next year I'll be the same age as dad when he passed away, way too young.

Every father's Day, birthday, anniversary of his passing plus as often as I can inbetween I take an early morning trip to Centennial Park to visit him, it never gets easier but every time I'm alone there I can feel I'm really not alone

RIP dad

I feel your pain truck, best wishes for you and your family

My father passed away on fathers day this year. He had just been to a fathers day lunch at a local pub with a few family members and passed away suddenly in the car on the way home.
Thing is he and the rest of my family are in WA and I'm here in the Victorian concentration camp.
A funeral is an exemption to enter WA but not if you come from Victoria or NSW

I just wish I could give mum a great big hug

Condolences.
He had a nice day out with family and then passed.

Thank you
Yes it seems that way.
I had skyped with him only the night before, he seemed fine, as he was that morning. It all came as a shock to us.
