The Blog of Tom

They’re in the process of re-building my old primary school, so I thought I would take some pictures. My camera is a bit crappy, but the resultant montage still brings a lump to my throat.

Oh, the memories…

When it’s late and nobody’s looking, I like to run the Guardian Society section through Gizoogle.

(I also ran it through an earlier post on this blog, and was depressed to realise that it was probably how I should have written it originally.)

Market Movies

This is a free one-sheet paper I write, reviewing cheap DVDs from market stalls. Although I am still buying two-quid discs off the market, my hunger for the bargain bin has been quelled since joining LoveFilm.

Still, I’ve managed to get a few good’uns from Whitecross Street, so maybe there will be another issue soon.

The Bony Fish is an occasional journal of pointless speculation. This first issue was published in January 2005 and outlines a somewhat dubious theory that the ‘Back To The Future’ trilogy is a hard-nosed piece of Reaganite propaganda, involving the Book of Revelations, the Iran-Contral scandal and the McCarthy witch-hunts of the 1950s.

It’s quite a long piece, but I feel I’ve got to put something on this blog.

The Bony Fish, Issue One

The next issue of The Bony Fish is currently in its very earliest stages. God only knows when it’ll be published… BUT IT WILL BE PUBLISHED!!!

This is the weblog of Tom Alexander, a writer and film-maker living in London, England.

At the moment, I have no real clue as to how and why blogging works, so please bear with me as I get things sorted out. Hopefully, this blog will help my career and be moderately entertaining to anyone who stumbles across it.
