Our Favourite Father’s Day Funnies
Today is Father’s Day here in the UK.
With the coronavirus lockdown easing a little, it’s thankfully going to be a little easier to celebrate, too.
More than two households can now meet up outdoors, so we expect there may be a few family barbecues around the country.
Well, if the weather holds up, that is!
Here, we’ve collected a few of our favourite funny tweets about the day.
Do any of these tickle your ribs?

Isn’t that what dads are for?

Certainly dads can be responsible for some of the more hair-raising moments of a childhood.
Just so long as mum doesn’t find out!
This Father's Day, be sure to thank your dad for secretly allowing you to do all that fun, dangerous stuff your mom wouldn't let you do.

Always communicate clearly
Be careful when discussing those all-important Father’s Day gifts.
Otherwise the family could be in for some potentially terrifying surprises.
