5 Great Father's Day Presents

Why not ditch the novelty mug and slippers or that same shaving kit for the 20th time this Father's Day - June 17th - and get your dad something he'll really appreciate?

Sports Fans

With Euro 2012 underway and the Olympics just around the corner there's loads of options for sporty dads, like the latest football shirt or a chance to enjoy the games with friends and a BBQ. More active dads might relish an offical Euro 2012 ball for a garden kickabout.

Red Letter Days offer special gifts from the opportunity to brew your own beer or take a Poker Masterclass to taking part in a Medieval Joust and the chance to drive a Steam Engine!

Red Letter Days

Memories and Momentoes

Surprise your dad by getting his workmates, school friends, teammates and buddies to help get together some old photos and newspaper clippings to make a scrapbook or bring old camcorder footage back to life by putting it on a DVD. Be careful though, it's all too easy for someone to slip in a few of your embarassing baby photos!

The Personal Touch

You can get some really fancy personalised gifts these days. notonthehighstreet.com have something to suit everyone like a silver plectrum for the old-school rockers or an apron for a foodie. Instead of a card, a personalised chocolate plaque from Thorntons will go down a treat.

Any whiskey lover would be proud of their very own personalised glass. Personalised wine glasses will also go perfectly with a bottle of wine bearing one of our brand new Father's Day labels on it.

 
A Little Break

Trips away don't have to break the bank. A weekend in Paris or Rome for your parents can cost as little as £130.  Or better yet, you can get them an InterRailing pass, which allows unlimited train journeys for a week or more to 30 European countries.

Or send them off to visit friends/family in style by upgrading their flight to first class or booking a local restaurant for them when they arrive.

Keep It Simple

There's no need to go wild. Making your father's favourite meal, or bringing him breakfast in bed could well make his day. Moonpig.com also offers a great range of small gifts and cards.

Then there is always old favourites like watching a favourite movie, taking a trip to the beach, or perhaps a quiet day fishing.
