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, of course!First time post and probably a lot rubbish. I've lurked on here for years now so it's about time I said something!
It's safe to say that my Father and I didnt have that much of a close relationship when I was younger. Partly due to the fact that I was a little bastard who liked to go out, get drunk, experiment with drugs and be a bit of an arse. This was kind of a shock to him because as a young child I'd been a darling! Rebel we must though.
With age I mellowed, and I now not only adore him, but am slowly turning into him. We have the same sense of humour, he even has me liking Sci Fi even though I *hated* being *forced* to watch it as a kid. He's not even phased by my being gay. In fact he asks ultimately embarrassing questions like "so, have you got yourself one of them life partners yet?"
Ive recently moved from newcastle to manchester for work and I miss not having the opportunity to visit whenever. Not that I did when I lived there.
To sum up. Visit when you can, for you'll miss them when you cant or some other words to that effect.
No funnies Im afraid but Im just dipping my toe in the water.
