The Tin Drummer: Etc

Tuesday 17 August 2010

Etc

I forgot to mention that the Air Balloon is the worst-sited pub in the world. At the top of a hill, several miles from any settlement, at the interjunction of three stupid roads, all heading to or from Gloucester, Cheltenham or (shudder) Swindon.

Ghastly place, ghastly road.

Here it is, kind of: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A417_road

"Blog Tin Drummer is written by unperson. Rectify" Crushed, Crushed By Ingsoc

"...you garner a lot of respect from people for the quality of your writing." DK, Devil's Kitchen

"F*** me sideways with a chain saw what a damn good blog." Bradford Vision

"An A-blogger if ever there was one, The Tin Drummer has this cursed no-comments policy which I feel detracts from the universal blog-purpose and yet he may be right. Perhaps experience dictates that comments are a mere distraction. Who knows? The best bloggers have their fingers on the pulse, if we might put it that way and TTD does this to perfection.."
James Higham, Nourishing Obscurity

"This is clearly a bright guy. He has something to say and he's not dithering about it." Tom Paine, The Last Ditch

"A source of insightful commment, the thoughts contained within are a great help in developing your pub debates." City Unslicker

"The tin drummer can also make cricket interesting to me, no mean feat as I’ve said. On this blog you will find clear political analysis, beautiful descriptive writing and some self-deprecating humour as well. I love his recent posts on why he has been driven to swear online! All posts are delivered in an excellent and riveting prose style. The tin drummer has a great flair for post titles, too!", WL, Sicily Scene

"So evocative with a dark edge..." Colin Campbell
