Our time with our Dad is a series of moments.
Moments such as:
When they put the foot down and we pay attention.
When we have had a rough day, and they give us that bear hug. A hug that possibly possesses medicinal qualities.
When you head out to your first teenage disco and they wonder if you really are leaving the house dressed like that. (and yes, yes we were)
When the future of your new relationship depends on the firmness of the handshake given to your Dad. Weak shakers BE GONE!
When they walk you down the aisle and both of you are leaning on each other.
When they stifle a giggle as you inevitably fall five minutes after they teach you how to ride a bike.
How amazing it is that when your world has turned upside down, they are there unconditionally.
When they explain something about their favourite team, and you do your level best to understand. (You say you understand but the vague look in your eyes means that you both know, you are still clueless.)
When you fall out with a pal and your Dad simply states ‘Be grand.’
And they are right. It will always be grand.
Irish Socksciety are best friends Alex and Joanna who love all that is quirky and humorous about contemporary Ireland. These pals feel that feet have lots to say, and to help them talk, they design their colourful and funny socks in Galway, on the west coast of Ireland, in the middle of the beautiful Wild Atlantic Way. The conversations in Ireland and the turn of phrase has inspired this company from day one with their witty take on Irish society and the way in which we connect with each other. Now a range of beanie hats are adding more to the chat.
