Theres Dads disgusting nettle soup and peculiar pancakes, horrible home haircuts, punishing press-ups and scum in the bath tub. BUT then theres the joy of boxing lessons with Dad, fun family outings, jokes and pranks and storytelling round the fire. Not to mention a homemade birthday cake like no other!
