Hi mossiepossie
You don't mention if your Dad was born in Scotland. If so, the birth you are looking for is too late for the online records - you would need to contact GROS for a copy of the birth entry:

Or as Annette mentioned in your other post:

As you live in Glasgow your best bet would be to visit Park Circus Family History Centre. If your dad was born in Scotland you will be able to view his birth details there. It costs £14 for the day and you can access as many records as you like right up until the present. That way you will be able to do forward searches and find descendants too.
Otherwise, if it was in England you can consult the English records online, then with a reference for his birth, you can order a copy of the certificate.

Best wishes
Lesley
