Well, the hubby got the usual pressies from the school Father's Day stall from the girls, and my son bought him chockies.
I helped wrap pressies for the kids at the school stall, gee they are cute. Their reasons for choosing what they chose are wide and varied, but I can tell you now that they really do put alot of thought into it and watch and observe their dads so that they can choose the best for him. It's very sweet. Anyway! He also got a new punching bag from me (our old one's dead lol). My dad is getting a lotteries gift pack and some chockies. His birthday is next Sunday so we are putting more effort into that lol.

I got a plant for the garden (which I think is pretty cool), a DVD, some munchies, a carry all tray for my car cleaning bits and pieces, a squeegy for my window (yes, I actually wanted one so I was happy with that) and, best of all, a 1350kg rated trolley jack in its own carry case... the one thing I wanted the most.
Oh, even had my morning coffees made and delivered to where ever I was at the time and a hearty breakfast of Bacon and Eggs cooked to perfection and delivered to me at the table with all the condiments. Best fathers day ever!!!! If i was any happier I'm sure it would be illegal!

Casper - nice Jack. I have one of the supercheap 2500kg ones. Never had a problem with it and couldn't be bothered taking it back for a recall. I use jack stands as well anyway, so if the jack fails, it's no biggy.
