Fathers Day Gift Idea- This is super easy to do and requires no cooking!
My dad is the kinda Dad thats pretty hard to buy for- he likes cycling- so he buys himself all the cycling gear he needs, He likes red wine, so he has a wine rack (with plently of red wine in it), He likes boats- so he bought himself a boat.
My basic point is- anything he wants, he tends to buy (the git). And theres only so many shirts from M&S and cycling biographies you can buy, so nowadays I tend to make him something. He loves Coconut Ice- so I made him a batch- and I made it blue instead of the traditional pink, so it's manly coconut ice.
