Give the gift of Individuality on Father’s Day<\/h1>\n

The third Sunday of June is a special date in the calendar. It’s the annual celebration of Fathers. The day when fathers are cherished for their support, their love, their unending commitment to their children.<\/p>\n

It’s often difficult to find the right present for Dads. A walk around any shopping centre sees the usual display of fatherly gifts \u2013 golf clothes, golf clubs, golf club covers, beer mugs, coffee cups, books, autobiographies and any amount of trinkets.<\/p>\n

It’s hard to know what to give to the man who has made you who you are. A gift that thanks him for his quiet support and constant encouragement. So this year, instead of giving the usual trinkets or ‘manly’ gifts, why not give a gift with a bit more individuality and a bit more longevity. An ideal gift is a personalised number plate.<\/p>\n

A personalised number plate is just that \u2013 a car number plate that has a personal message or name on it. So instead of having the normal mix of letters and numbers that mean nothing, you can use the letters and numbers to create a personal message.<\/p>\n

How<\/strong> to<\/strong> create<\/strong> a<\/strong> number<\/strong> plate<\/strong> of<\/strong> interest<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are number plates to suit every budget. To keep it low-cost, here are some tips on how to create a personalised number plate that shows you care while still being aware of your budget. In order to get a cheap personalised number plate, you should think creatively.<\/p>\n

Pick a year letter, follow it single digits and then use the three letters to show your Dad’s name or interest.<\/p>\n

\u00f1\u00a0 A5 ROB (if your Dad’s name is Bob)<\/p>\n

\u00f1\u00a0 B3 TEE (if your Dad likes golf)<\/p>\n

\u00f1\u00a0 C4 FSH (if you like fishing)<\/p>\n

You can use your initials using the current style of numbering which is two letters, then year numbers and followed by three letters. Here are a few examples:<\/p>\n

SF51 DAY (you could use your initials first, then your Dad’s surname as the last digits)<\/p>\n

SF 55 ANN (you could use your initials and then your father’s name)<\/p>\n

SF61 TEE (you could use your initials and your Dad’s interest, in for example, golf)<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Buy<\/strong> a<\/strong> Northern<\/strong> Irish<\/strong> plate<\/strong><\/p>\n
