As an aside I wonder why there are never Dads' nights out.

DH goes on a dads' night out every month. Organise one.

Go on UQD. You don't expect the mums to do it for you do you?

You could always say that it is each individual mum's night out.

DH goes on dads' nights out. Involves meeting in pub and going for curry. Organising anything more elaborate would be beyond them
