Our belt sander has gone walk-about. Where could it be?
Doesn’t it know we need Jason fully-equipped to sand down the decks in
time for spring? I suspect Jason’s hidden it somewhere…
Never fear, I’m going to buy Jason another one, as
encouragement to continue his DIY thing. For Father’s Day. Ha! The poor thing
will never escape DIY while living here. Never!
And because I’m into online browsing for gifts, I was
happy to hear that Masters
Home Improvement recently launched their online store. Hooray for more
competition in the world of hardware for all of us tireless home improvers!
Well, Masters have declared it a sock, jock and tie free
day this Father’s Day. Normally fashionisto Jason would be thrilled to get a
pair of designer jocks; however the belt-sander would be far more practical…
Jocks and a power tool would be a great combination.
Yeah!
Then I had a light bulb moment. Maybe I should get Jason
tradie clothes instead? If you’ve been following our renovations, you would
know Jason’s home handyman uniform consists mainly of rags… He looks like a
complete and utter hobo.

So, I started wandering through the Masters site and
searched for shirts, pants and shoes. Boom! I can kit Jason out from top to toe
all online…
I give you wannabe tradie Jason.

We’re spoilt for choice. What do you think? Tradie
clothes? Belt sander? Jocks?
Or should I just go all out and indulge him this Father’s
Day and get the lot...? What are you going to get the Dad in your life?
p.s
And if you think the
Dad in your life needs a shed load of stuff to keep him occupied, then enter Masters’
Father's Day Competition by posting a picture of him on their Facebook competition tab for Father's Day and in 25 words or less tell them why you love
him.
Just go the jocks, the boots and the belt sander and he should be happy - we all know he won't wear the shirt anyway! melx
ReplyDeleteSo true, thanks Mel!
ReplyDeleteJason just told me that no one out there wants him wear tradie clothes and that you're all just waiting for his work rags to disintegrate...
Hobo look is fine. Belt sander every time!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Bungalow girl, by all means go for the jocks, boots pants etc but dont worry about the shirts ;)
ReplyDeleteWell you know what they say in the fitness world- deck yourself out in the right gear to boost the motivation? I think this could work here too.

Oh my goodness, all these items are in Mark's wardrobe already! Father's Day is very bittersweet - mine has passed away:( xx
ReplyDeleteHigh vis is the new black here on The Farm. I say go for broke and get him the lot!
ReplyDeleteHigh vis - maybe that's why his chest has been bare for so long. He's been waiting for this.
ReplyDeleteBungalow Girl and Moerks : we speak the same language. No need for shirts.
ReplyDeleteI'd go with the boots since they have a function (keeping his toes), but disintegrating garments are just fine...
ReplyDeleteBoots are important and Blunnies are the go, we both wear them here, though Lyndon's get munched on by Molly. Though I don't suppose you'll have that problem! Jason would love some tradie gear :)
ReplyDeleteAgree with Tricia Rose, steel-capped tradie boots can save a painful broken toe when you drop a big piece of timber on your foot. Broken toes = delays in renovation
ReplyDeleteooh I can just picture Jason in a high-vis shirt.
ReplyDeleteSexy kit for the home handyman.

Beltsander,Brismod you hard taskmaster, no wonder Jason has taken to snatching naps on the roof. Mr CH only stated recently that he wouldn't be "caught dead" in one of those high-vis shirts, so maybe jocks are the go?
