This is a question Dad stories

"Do anything good for your birthday?" one of your friendly B3TA moderator team asked in one of those father/son phone calls that last two minutes. "Yep," he said, "Your mum." Tell us about dads, lack of dad and being a dad.

My dad is a completely
chillaxed and intelligent man. There's god knows how many stories I have of him but one that springs to mind was the time me and my brother demanded of him a boat. Being ever obliging he cut a point into a block of wood and then tied string to a nail in the front. Initially unimpressed I ended up loving bringing it to the beach to sail all the seven puddles.

It wasn't long before my dad was bombarded with requests for a proper boat that "I can really stand on". Cue my dad spending two entire days screwing pallets and hardboard together to make the most amazing two story playhouse boat. After the tears from realizing the boat wouldn't actually sail I came around and it kept myself and my imagination amused for several years after. Nice one Dad.
