The Great Unfolding Broadband Conspiracy

Posted on 22, Feb

Halle-bloody-lujah! After more or less 3 1/2 months without broadband access, BT Wholesale seem to have finally resolved whatever problem it was they were having that was preventing me from getting a connection at home. I’d already written a huge post damning BT and every single ISP I’d ever heard of until I rang them [...]

Damn You Wanadoo!

Posted on 3, Feb

Honestly, to think that the UK’s self-styled numero uno business blogging fruitcake has to resort to speed posting due to being on a pay as you go dial-up connection beggars belief. (It obviously doesn’t beggar belief that I’m chucking this out as quickly as I can to stifle the cost – time is money y’know.) [...]

On the trail of the rogue comment.

Posted on 1, Feb

Whoops. I was just wondering why my comments seemed a little on the sparse side and found that one or two had been thrown into my Spam Karma bin for some odd reason. I’m also not getting notifications. So I don’t want any of you to think I’m being an ignorant little tinker or that [...]

2005: Blogged – The Year’s Review in Blogs (Kind of).

Posted on 25, Nov

Posted on 7, Nov

One of the nicer things that’s been happening of late is that I can now count certain people at Butler Sheetmetal Ltd as regular Tinbasher readers. (If we’re being honest, they’re probably the only regular readers. But such is life.) Only the other day, both Deborah and John were having a gander and showed a [...]

Someone’s Got A Birthday, I Wonder Who?

Posted on 4, Oct

Today is the revamped Tinbasher’s official first birthday. It’s exactly a year to the day that I responded to the mention that Jackie Danicki gave to the old, disused Tinbasher by moving to some new premises and seeing what might develop. If I’d personally been more settled and certain of the exact timing of my [...]

Help, I’m in internet hell.

Posted on 30, Sep

Apologies for all the confusion and odd suspension messages, but I’m having some seriously bizarre problems with my host. This is turning into ten hours of internet hell as they keep suspending me for: [Your account was suspended due to] high httpd useage on www.butlersheetmetal.com /tinbasherblog/wp-admin/ Don’t ask me what that means as I don’t [...]
