Great post. I don’t have a dad blogger in the house but a first time dad to be, i’ll be sending him in your direction later. Great post
Interesting to learn more about the Dad Network :)
I knew more that I thought I would! I didn’t know about YouTube, I’ll have to check that out. I’m really thankful for all your hard work on the Dad Network, it has been a great way to connect with other dads & bloggers! Thanks man!
A few things I didn’t know there. Good idea for a post. It’s all about awareness. It’s a shame you’re unable to post about sex, drugs and rock n roll… we’re all dying to know. Haha. Now get some sleep and stop working on your silly blog…oh wait, it’s 1:20 a.m. over here… I should heed my own advice.
Interesting to know what is out there for dads. It’s such s great idea as a lot of time all focused on mums! Need to show my hubby this a bit more! Love the instagram account btw! Sarah xx #bigfatlinky
Thanks for this post Al. You’ve made me aware of a few elements of the network I didn’t know about. I will be signing up! #BigFatLinky
I did not know that you were a full-time teacher, that’s impressive! I struggle with blogging doing only part-time. I also didn’t know there were 7 of you!
Just joined your new Facebook group, I’m utterly shocked you have to keep up with blogging a teach full time. (I want some of what your having!) keep up the great work.
Great post. I didn’t know a lot of these so now I do :-) I love the fathers day event as all dads need recognition too. My hubby is amazing and I am lucky to have him as my boys dad :-)
Your new facebook group has been helpful for me already, especially thats to Ricky and his technical tips on there, so thank you! Feel free to link this up to my ten things linky that’s now live if you fancy ;)
I’ve just subscribed to you youtube, I haven’t started vlogs yet, still trying to get brave enough ;)
Stevie :)
Thanks for this post. I was feeling sad that my lack of a Y chromosome would stop me from joining the dad’s group so I’m really excited about joining your new group :)
It’s nice to read that somebody else is working full time and blogging as well. I’m definitely a bit sleep deprived since starting blogging!
Thanks for hosting the linky- I love it!
I didn’t know you had so many contributors!…thanks for setting up the parent blogger group too, it’s great to see new blogs and posts in one place :)
Wow! I was aware of how great TheDadsNet was but I didn’t know all the components. How you all find the time is beyond me. Keep up the good work dads!
I didn’t know you did all of this! I’m almost sad that I’m not a dad as there’s so much going on here! What you’ve created is fantastic – you should be very proud of yourselves :) #bigfatlinky
I did not know almost any of these things but now I do- thanks! And thanks for hosting!
#bigfatlinky
You’re very welcome! :)
Great post, I should totally get my husband to hook up with your fb group.
#bigfatlinky
Yeah, send him our way!
Damn responsibilities holding you back Al haha.. Just requested to join the parenting Facebook group which I was totally unaware of! Not gonna lie TheDadsNet kind of makes me wanna be a dad – great thing you have set up :)
You could be an honorary dad!
Blimey Al, you are a busy bee! Fantastic! x
Bzzzzzzzzzzzz! Then turns into zzzzzzzzz’s!
Great post now I know all of the places I can stalk. ….I mean follow you guys. Just kidding but I’ll definitely be joining your Facebook parents group :)
Yeah, come and join us! :)
So many things to be proud of, well done! I’ve been following you on Instagram for quite a while, I love seeing your uploads. It’s great that you have a Facebook group for Dad’s, I’m in a few mum ones, I love going on them, and can always rely on someone having answers to any questions I have, or just for someone to talk to!
Thanks so much for your comment. The groups is amazing. The dads are all great.
How did i miss out on the youtube channel!?!?
This truly is a great community of dads loaded with great info for dads whether you blog or not!!
Have you subscribed? Come and see our new Vlog. We’re publishing again shortly!
You must be knackered! Hats off to you..its great!! :-)
So knackered! But it’s worth it and I enjoy it.
Nice post Al – had no idea you had guest bloggers.x
Yeah, they’re more regular bloggers than guest. (Although some are more regular than others.)
Didn’t know about Instagram. Looks like I’ll have to join. How do you fit it all in. I’m a full time carer to Autistic stepson and don’t find time to blog. Never mind teaching, blogging, tweeting and instagramming..
I don’t know how I fit it all in to be honest. Come and join us on Instagram too.
oooo I didn’t know you were on instagram; I’ll have to find you now!
Thank you for a fab ‘fat’ link up again
xx
Yeah, come and find us!
It looks like you are keeping yourself very busy! Congratulations on growing such a successful ‘organisation’!!
#bigfatlinky
I didn’t know … but I do now :)
I didn’t know any of that. Thanks for sharing. I’m pleased to have found it and will go search you out now on social media. #bigfatlinky
I think this all sounds just brilliant and I’m so impressed you’re cramming so much into your days. Mind you, they do say that if you want something done then ask a busy person don’t they??
I’m personally loving having easy access to posts written by blokes – life is a bit of everyone isn’t it and you can definitely have too many women in one place ;)
I didn’t know all of those things so thanks for sharing #bigfatlinky
Did you know…that you are amazing? I love your Twitter, blog, FB parents group but I didn’t know you did all those other things. And on top of those you are a teacher? #Superman status!!
Great piece Al,
I reckon I’ve got a lot of “dads banter” waiting for me when we meet up at some point ;-)

I found the “Did You Know” post at last! You do so much I really don’t know how you fit it all in. Great site, I’m still mooching around it. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
Great post, Al! It must be such a relief when dads come across your network and groups and to be able to have groups like us mummies do too. The support you have between you must be second to none. I’ll have to get my other half involved.. if he doesn’t fob you off again haha. Jade #bigfatlinky
7 writers? Full-time jobs? High fives and respect man! you guys are super busy and I hope your father’s day event goes really well – sounds awesome!
Thanks for linking up to #Thelist x (it would be awesome ifyou could add the badge!)
As if I didn’t have enough other content to consume, I’ve now added 10, yes 10, new items to investigate! You guys are doing some seriously great work and it’s great to be a teeny, tiny part of it.
Thanks for all you do. Still dipping my toe in the linky, but hoping to be ankle deep in other aspects of the network soon!
Make it a great day!
A good read! I love your instagram account – Ted is just too cute.
I must have watched your interview with jo tantum about 100 times!
Great list of ‘Did You Know’s’ and I will hang my head in hame to say – ‘No I didn’t’ for rather a few of those little facts. I think its fab to have such an array of possibilities for just dads, and for the rest of us!! Brilliant job. Will make sure I join in!! Thanks for linking up with #SundayStars Steph xxx
Wow I hadn’t heard of the Dad network before- it sounds like you are a very busy bunch indeed. I keep telling my husband to start a blog, he features on mine enough! Thanks for linking up to the Ordinary Moments.
No problem – it’s good to find more linkys! Yeah, send your husband over to join our FB group. :) Tell him it’s a place he can moan! (In private!)
Well – I did know a couple of these but I’ve learnt about a few more! Thanks for the run down.
I have to admit no I didn’t know half of that have joint your parent blogger group now! thas for sharing #sundaystars
