About Me

Dad, husband, man.
Welcome to my blog.

Some bloggers prioritise the "serious", but not me. I leave "serious" to those who do it better.

I'm a humble British father and husband, blogging about my life. As you can tell, I opt for a "relaxed" writing approach. 

Like many, the pandemic forced me to "work from home".  Life got crazy, as I adjusted to a new working dynamic.

Upon reflection, I'm grateful. I gained precious time at home with my wife and two sons. 

Out of global misery, I built the blog and started writing again. I expanded my mind, read books and pursued old hobbies and interests.

What you'll read here, is an honest and fatherly perspective on life. I'm a advocate of self-improvement and achieving goals. Perhaps you'll find value? Perhaps I'll make you think? Who knows!

There's a therapeutic appeal to blogging. Maybe my children will read it one day, and understand how the old man ticked? Or should that be TikTok'd?

I try to post regularly, when life isn't too hectic! If you like my blog, please check-out my Instagram account @cyberdadblog 

Thanks again

DIY: Building A Mud Kitchen

Image
Get out my (mud) kitchen! Last Friday, my son turned 3. To compliment his presents, the wife asked me to build a mud kitchen. " Absolutely darling, of course, easy...........no problem ". I always live on the edge, agreeing to things, then figuring it out later. In business, they tell you to " fake it, until you make it ". I'm sure it applies to mud kitchens? Yes, no? In fairness, I welcomed the challenge. After a brief look on  Pinterest , I felt confident. I'd give it a go, and see what transpired. This is a good project, for the aspiring DIY enthusiast. Fathers should embrace these creative opportunities. Flex your DIY muscles, and test your limits. You aren't a man, until you've attempted the mud kitchen! 😆 What Is A Mud Kitchen? In a nutshell, mud kitchens are outdoor workstations. They mimic a real kitchen, and are usually built from wood materials.   Mud kitchens help to stimulate your child's creativity and imagination. Children can spen

Returning To The Office: A Parent Perspective

Image
"Lord Sugar will see me now." Exciting news, I went back to the office! It's one day. But technically, I'm back, and it feels great. The day arrived, where Dad would battle henceforth and mingle in the city. It took my youngest son by surprise. Why was dad leaving the house? Are we going to war? Has mum kicked him out? No dear boy, this is how the world works! He was just eighteen-months, in March 2020, when we entered lockdown. There's a "lost" generation who don't understand pre-pandemic protocols, or ever seeing their fathers in suits. But  "the times they are a-changin'" (Dylan, 1964) . Some parents are tormented by the "return to office" dilemma. Routines and childcare arrangements may change. But frankly, I'm happy and this is why. The Commuting Experience Thumbs-up to commuting! Strangely, I enjoy my commute. To some, commuting feels unnecessary or unproductive. Or time that could be used better. But would you ever

Gift Ideas: For 'Difficult' Dads

Image
Smile! Christmas; it came, it went, we conquered. Get anything nice? I thought I'd blog, before it transcends into a distant memory. In fifty weeks, we do it again! 😕 I'm a simple man, I don't ask for much. That said, Santa (my wife) obliged with some decent gifts. My Christmas priority, is my children. Their festive joy and smiles, are all I need.  It's a cliché, but you enjoy Christmas through the kids. And that's enough for me. My birthday is late-November, which is problematic. By Christmas, I'm stuck for ideas. I'm difficult to buy for.  Kids are easy, that want everything! And my wife always needs handbags! I favour "experiences" over "stuff". Which is sensible, until you need "tangible" gift ideas. We end each year the same, the wife says:  "What do you want for Christmas darling?!?"  and I say:  "I don't  know........ surprise me?".  Anyway, she did well again. This is (some of) what Dad got for
