I've spent the day dad sitting. Heaven knows he spent enough time looking after our kids now its payback time. So after a disastrous morning, broken washer and mothers car breaking down in the village , I go to undertake my duties.
As I get there his face is contorted and I ask what's wrong. "It's always like this!" was the response. So after a few seconds facial exercise he looks normal again.
I always try to find something on tv we can talk about. Today I was in luck, track cycling and rugby.
We start with the cycling, I am not familiar with rules of the event but, suss after a couple of rounds that last man round is eliminated. I tell dad this, he is unaware that cycling is on. Even though he is watching.
So rugby starts.
I watch and can't think of anything to say, to me it's torture but he seems to be enjoying it, or so I thought. Must have dozed off as I wake up game stats are on screen and he is sat watching avidly.
I ask who won.................the reply..
" I'm just waiting for kick off"
