Are you a geek? And a dad?^*

Are you and your wife/partner/girlfriend:

tired
really tired
really terribly tired
tired with knobs on

Even though your kids are - obviously - the best thing in the world, they're also quite tiring, right?

Now think about how nice it'd be if you (geek dad^*) were to head out on a Saturday morning with your kids to meet up with some fellow geek dads^* in your area. Here's what I reckon might happen:

Your wife/partner/girlfriend/boyfriend/whoever it is gets a lie in to help with the tiredness
Your kids get a trip out
You get to eat something fried
Your kids get to hang out with other geek kids
You get to talk geek. Not necessarily formal talks and stuff, just cud-chewing, Saturday morning stuff
You get brownie points

Everyone ends up happy.

( ^*or mum. I know I'm making a (probably unfashionable) assumption here, but "geekparent" didn't work quite as well. If you're a geek mum, or a geek who likes hanging out with tired dads but doesn't have the kids to go with it, or a non-geek with kids, or a geek grandparent, or a wannabe geek....then hey, just turn up...)

If you're up for it, tweet the beginning bit of your postcode (and country, if non UK), hashtagged #gdbf (geek dad breakfast - cunning, eh?) and we'll go from there.

ps. this is nothing to do with Wired.com's GeekDad (which I only just found), but that looks good too.. :-)
