The Goodfather

2007 Father’s Day Gift Guide

Old Boy or Superman: make sure yours feels special this Father’s Day.

The shameless foodie will love a boiley egg, while the sugar daddy will appreciate something sweet from Meg Rivers.

He can work it off at the beach in stylish trunks by Orlebar Brown (The Shop at Bluebird, 350 Kings Road, SW3 5UU; 020 7351 3873) or send him round the bend in a Formula One car at Rockingham track.

The new daddy will cherish mementos of his little sproglets. The homeowner will like furniture from No. Eight. For the poser: an illusion table or work of SoundArt won’t fail to impress. Give the eager gardener a Pocket Garden (Harrods, 87-135 Brompton Road, SW1X 7XL; 020 7730 1234).

Still stuck for ideas? Find more gentlemanly treasures at The Mint Source and Iggloo.

Whatever you get him, don’t forget him.

And remember: Dad’s the word.
