Father’s Day is another import – it falls on the third Sunday of the month in the UK and began in the USA in 1908 as a way of celebrating our dads. Here we’re looking back at past Father’s Day celebrations in Sheffield – hopefully you’ll be able to get around Covid difficulties make a big fuss of the old man this Sunday. Or maybe, like me, you’ll be looking back on some happy memories of a much-missed dad instead.
