For me I think it would to have a full enough English breakfast with the family, a mug of proper coffee, where I don't have to make any of it.

Then selfishly I'd love to spend most of the day on my own without doing any chores or being constantly nagged: watch some F1 if it were to be on, read my book on the sofa, enjoy a small beer (Tiny Rebel, Clwb Tropica).

Then in the late afternoon, go out for some food for some decent pub food or an Indian.

What about you?

Also I’m the go to parent whenever kids want anything or argue over something so not being that for a day k thanks…

Yeah, same. I'm the one my son asks ALL the questions to, any question, non-stop. All I ever hear is "Daad?" followed by some crazy question. My wife has less patience for it than I do, she can hear him from another room and is like "JUST LEAVE YOU POOR DAD ALONE FOR 5 MINUTES!" My daughter, who will be 2 next month just copies him so she's always going "DAD!" too.

There's an episode of Bluey where the dad has taken the kids to the pool on his own but has forgotten everything, and the kids are going "Dad! Dad! Dad! Dad!" and he's like "Can everyone please stop saying DAD!". It really made me laugh!
