I've been on the lookout for a set of wireless headphones for a while so was happy to hear from the team at Sudio recently. They sent me a set of their Regent wireless headphones to put to the test. As well as the headphones themselves, the box contains an audio cable, a charging cable and ...
At this time of year, I'm often asked what my ideal Father's Day gift would be. My answer is always the same: time. It passes so quickly and life is so busy that it would be nice if things could at least slow down a little. Just a couple of extra hours a day would do the trick. While ...

I've noticed a new tradition in recent years. Maybe it's been around for ages, but it's a new one on me. Namely giving kids new pyjamas the night before the bearded one descends down the chimney. I hope you appreciate me not mentioning said day by name yet! It's a nice idea and, if your ...
We're big fans of the Clangers in our house. I loved watching reruns of the original series as a child and have no qualms admitting I still enjoy watching the new episodes. In addition, we were all lucky enough to attend the premiere of the new series last year. The Clangers For Kindness campaign encourages everyone ...
I'm Tom Briggs. A proud dad of three and, somehow or other, the writer of a multi-award-winning dad blog.
I've been writing Diary of the Dad since 2010 and it's gone from a small hobby to my full-time job.
I still have the same enthusiasm for this blog as I did when I wrote my first post and hope you enjoy reading my musings as much as I do writing them.
