When we were little my dad cared for us four children while our mum was in hospital. It was my sisters birthday so dad bought a Boston bun to celebrate. He had no candles so put in 5 matches instead!

One of the funniest memories of dad on father's day was we were playing on the shore at manly Beach with him. A little wave came in he bent over to pick the 2 of us up out of harms way, the wave crashed and hit him in the face throwing his false teeth out of his mouth. The search began but to no avail.
We continue to play with dad on the shore, sometime later another little wave came and dads teeth washed up onto his lap

The most amazing thing I remember about Father’s Day was seeing my 69 year old dad sliding down a hill on a cardboard box with all the grandkid with everyone laughing & encouraging him. Unfortunately he passed away a few months later.

My dad has been gone 29 years this year so my biggest memory is the First Fathers Day without him in 1997. A very sad day for the whole family. We scattered his ashes as we said goodbye.

Dad loved dried fruit, and every Father’s Day (without fail!) we’d buy him a large gift box of fruit. Then we’d sit at the table, waiting … waiting … for him to open it, and after teasing us with a long wait, he’d open it and share it with us all!

I have no biological children but I am now a father & grandfather to my partners lovely siblings. The first time I received Father's Day presents this was not on my radar at all. It was such a wonderful surprise and so touching. I love them all!

My fondness memory when my 2 brother in laws plus myself built a rockery in the front yard for fathers day.During the following week dad painted the bushrock grey.We ribbed him for years.

My children back in late 1970 bring me a cup of tea-coffee in bed on fathers day. They could not remember what I liked so they made it in the same cup. Tasted terrible but I still drank it as it was made with love.

As we are far from our Son and his family and our grandchildren in Japan we were told in the Fathers Day week before COVID that we had special govt permission from the Consulate to visit Japan in the very early post COVID period and celebrated our grandsons 20 and 21 birthdays in the same trip! Memorable for 80 year olds!

Father's day one year when we were still young, 5 kids under the age of 12 years. We came home from church, after it had been raining, and Dad thought he'd liven things up, he drove really fast down the dirt drive -way into the garage and then suddenly hit the skids, but instead of us laughing our heads off,, he skidded smack bang into the back of the wooden shed wall, smashed the front of the car, and we all sat frozen waiting for his response. After a few tense minutes, he looked around into the back seat at our faces and said, Well that didn't go to plan. We burst out laughing hysterically. We still talk about that day, and I'm now 66y old.

When my dad was as 91 and feeling emotional on the anniversary of Mum’s death, he cried saying he knew he wasn’t as good a father as other fathers mainly because he wasn’t as physically involved or affectionate with us. Mum used to say it was his ‘proper’ upbringing where displays of emotion we’re discouraged
It was a very emotional moment for me but I was able to tell us all the ways he was a wonderful father. We both felt better for this sad and difficult experience.

Dad, a Motor Mechanic, serviced our car and forgot to check the spare wheel. We went for a holiday in the Flinders Ranges and "cut" a tyre on a dirt road that had some stones in it. The spare tyre was about 1/2 flat. The only pump we had was the now "old style" that you pushed down by hand. My brother and I were too young to help, Dad had a shoulder injury, so Mum helped pump it up. We teased him a few times later.
W always reminded him to check the spare tyre after that incident.

We never really got to celebrate fathers day with Dad. Sundays were golf days, far more important than family. We always left our presents on his pillow for when he got home. So, instead we got to go to the neighbours and share their Dad's day and join their family barbecue.

Pputting my father through he'll as the result of a road collision which very nearly took my life when I was 16 years old.

Watching the faces of the Dads and Grandads in our Church every year when we bless them with a little personalised gift - "survival kit", homemade biscuits, tiny tools, funny sweet treats eg M&Ms for being "mighty and magnificent", etc. Always appreciated, and the kids love to help hand them out. Always worth the time it takes to put them together. Family bonuses all round!

Father’s Day Memory

We always had spare ribs on Father’s Day, but Dad had his fillet mignon without fail. We kissed him with our BBQ lips and hugged him with sticky fingers — and he loved us just the same. Those moments, full of laughter, food, and love, will always stay with me. I miss him dearly, but I carry him in my heart every Father’s Day and beyond.

When I was in primary school I made my Dad a very lop-sided pottery ashtray of which I was very proud. Unfortunately the evening before Fathers' Day whilst wrapping said ashtray I managed to drop it smashed into hundred pieces. I was devastated!. Never mind said my eldest brother come quickly and we canake the newsagents as the shops shut early them). I will buy a lottery ticket for you to give Dad as I was to young. Well that ticket won 2nd prize a few days later!! I caplll that memorable.
