Is there a 'dadsnet' or equivalent?

[mandymac]

DH is looking for a website for dads and googling hasn't come up with anything much except brandnewdads.com which is very american. Apparently they use words like 'gotten'?! and he says its just a small step from that to rootbeer and sasparelli and then where would we all be .

I've told him he can post here, but I don't think he wants to muscle in. Any suggestions?

i think the menwhp post on here have found mens net sites very dull and slow in comparison

FQ is really good

if he makes jokes like that I think he'll fit in quite well here tbh

tell him not to be scared of the nasty ol' mums .. there's quite a few papas here too

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

Hmmm - two of us addicted to MN - there would be fisticuffs over the laptop I'm sure! I will pass on your words of encouragement. Nasty ol' mums - lol!

tell him not to be a whimp..we dont bite.
Well not all the time ;)

2 laptops?

I saw an 'Acer' Laptop with a decent cetrino processor in Tesco Extra the other day for..... £500 bargain!

It's obviously not the highest spec in the world but it did have the decent centrino in it and it seemed ok.

just clicked and read dc laptop post and thought he was trying to lure him in with manly talk

Pmsl at daddycool 'luring him in with manly talk'! . Any chance you can get a footie reference in too dc? Then we would have him hooked for sure!

i hate footie. but i'm manly! i am, honest!

and i'll talk manly things:

beer
large machinery
cars
filthy women

mandymac - don't introduce ur DH to MN - I did and he's on here on my anti natal thread! lol. wouldn't mind anyone elses DH!

By 'filthy women' I assume you mean ladies like me who are housework shy dc? not sure how this would interest him .

I will show him this thread when he gets back from work (if he isn't lurking and hasn't read it already).

munziedh likes computers too

and don't I know it zip! lol. last night had the ins and outs of the fan/cooling system - thing is thou I don't bloody understand it! lol.

apart from that he's like DC - beer, dirty women, cars, rugby (not necessarily (sp) in that order! lol.)

And gadgets, don't forget highly expensive mostly useless but shiny gadgets. They are very important to a lot of us.

And filthy women, as DC said.

And football.

On a serious note mandymac there is homedad for stay at home dads. Not sure if this will help your dh or not but this is the only one I know

What sort of stuff (seriously now) would Dads want on a Dads net? Practical stuff about how to empty washing machine? Make a skirt for school play? Can things of lots that single/part time dads might want but let's here it from the horses' mouths.

And if you want dirty women we'll start adding hunky men to ours
