Learner Dad: 'I looked at the Father’s Day Aldi booklet, looks like I’ll be getting a box of Heroes and a nose-hair trimmer'

I DIDN'T want my kids to call me Dad. I wanted to be Pat, that’s my name, it’s me. I didn’t want this other character - Dad - to come along and wipe me out. Dad was my father, he wore a shirt and tie every day into his 80s and acted like a responsible member of society.
