The Tin Drummer: 01/04/09 - 01/05/09
http://thetindrummer.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, 23 April 2009. The whole left was so utterly compromised by its half-hearted understanding of democracy that he was about as good as the bastards came (and continue to come today). What if things had been different: if Jack Jones and his ilk had prevented, at the point of another anti-democratic strike, the proto-monetarist government (yes I know he supported it) of 1976-9 taking effect? What if we had slipped into outright socialism in 1976? That the riots of 1981 would have never happened?

The Tin Drummer: 01/10/09 - 01/11/09
http://thetindrummer.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, 31 October 2009. Three Types of Simile. Here's something I wrote while deeply bored some time ago. As you can imagine, I'm still desperately bored - too bored even to blog propely, though I've started posting again over at CTS. I had a volume of Hardy and a cup of tea to hand when I wrote it. From tides the lofty coastlands screen. Come smitings like the slam of doors. Or hammerings on hollow floors. From ‘The Wind’s Prophecy’). Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Tin Drummer: Drummer Mentioned
http://thetindrummer.blogspot.com/2006/11/drummer-mentioned.html
Saturday, 11 November 2006. Has a post up introducing this blog, and is right about the swearing and need to reduce Devil-post intake. The thing is this: swearing is actually very difficult to do properly, and is usually best left to the experts. I learned everything I know about swearing from. My post on Polly as if she were keen on cricket has also been linked to by Tim Worstall. It is people like Polly who persuade me that I cannot stop swearing altogether.

The Tin Drummer: 01/08/09 - 01/09/09
http://thetindrummer.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Friday, 21 August 2009. Oh Who Am I (The Susan Howatch Edition). Well, clearly I'm not Charles Ashworth. Nor even Neville Aysgarth. It would be a minor blasphemy to put me as Jon Darrow. I'd be massively offended if you called me Christian Aysgarth. I'd be unbelievably gratified if you thought I was Lyle Ashworth (nee Christie). Sadly, this is my destiny -. Eddie Hoffenburg, less the war-suffering. Oh how awful. Links to this post. Labels: C of E meandering. Thursday, 20 August 2009. 4) Sexual intimacy&#...

The Tin Drummer: Fans Criticize Police
http://thetindrummer.blogspot.com/2010/11/fans-criticize-police.html
Wednesday, 10 November 2010. Fans caught up in trouble at a football match in Plymouth have blamed a "low-key" approach by police. At least 20 people were arrested on Tuesday evening at the first Devon derby between Plymouth Argyle and Exeter City for more than eight years. Bear criticises lack of woods presence - I had to take a crap on the street, he says. Pope criticises lack of Protestants in Vatican area. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Tin Drummer: New, Non-Politically Partisan or Sweary Blog Started
http://thetindrummer.blogspot.com/2010/11/new-non-politically-partisan-or-sweary.html
Wednesday, 3 November 2010. New, Non-Politically Partisan or Sweary Blog Started. Yes, I've decided to start a new blog, with Ms Drummer, in which I write for the first time *under my real name*. But in the spirit of the new Coalition era, I'll not be whinging about the govt (though I could do plenty of that if I chose). It'll be what I wanted TTD to be, before I got obsessed by NuLab. I note that several bloggers have given up since the erection: LFAT. Where do I stand today, as if matters? Buy Thoughtc...

The Tin Drummer: Thoughtcrimes
http://thetindrummer.blogspot.com/2010/10/thoughtcrimes.html
Saturday, 2 October 2010. Well, I've messed around again with the posts I wrote for the blog on Nineteen Eighty Four. I've revised, added and expanded them up to 21000 words and published them on Lulu. So if you're interested, follow the link at the side. It's all pretty basic in presentation but then I always was crap at art. Labels: Nineteen Eighty Four. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Buy Thoughtcrimes on Nineteen Eighty Four from Lulu.

I think that sentence was meant to be ironic.

The Tin Drummer: Nu-Heimat
http://thetindrummer.blogspot.com/2010/08/nu-heimat.html
Wednesday, 18 August 2010. Well, time moves on and if TTD didn't, he'd be dead. Accordingly, the world of TTD has changed and now the village of Hill is the Drummer-heimat (yes, he changes his past, just like the Party). Sadly, Hill is too small even to merit a single nuclear warhead, although both Berkeley and Oldbury-on-Severn both count, probably. The closest serious target then, apart from the two nuclear power stations (alright, alright - only one, and even it isn't sorted yet), is Thornbury. The be...
