We're away on holiday in England at present but back home in Australia it's Father's Day today, so here are a few favourite old photos of my Dad that I just happen to have access to online.

Happy Father's Day Dad,
and thanks, for all you did for us!
I know you would have loved all your great grandchildren too. Six at last count.

A lovely collection Jo and I'm sure the family treasures them.
Lovely photographs. I hope you are enjoying England. Judging by things in these parts, you are having good weather.
Thanks Alan. Cooler here today but we head to Portugal for a few days tonight and I think it'll be quite a bit warmer there.
I always enjoy seeing photos of your Dad.
"Penny-farthing" is a new term to me.
Lovely photos of your dad and great that you were able to post them from afar.
Your dad sure knew how to handle a baby! Given modern enthusiasm for extreme sports I'd expect the penny farthing to soon make a retro comeback!
Neat old bicycle!
Happy father's day...great collection of photos showing the love fathers have with their children and grandchildren!
Hope you are having a good time. A nice tribute to your dad. Lovely old photos too.
