About Tommy
Hallo! The name’s Collison.. Tommy Collison. Licensed… to blog!
*spy-like theme plays in backround*
I’m Tommy, I’m 15 and I’m a blogger from Limerick, but originally from Tipperary.
I play drums and can even play you one song on piano too :)
Music tastes include The Dresden Dolls, RHCP, Muse and Linkin Park.
I used to be a Bond and general movie buff, but that’s slowly been washed away, replaced by music.
On Twitter, you’re asked to provide a short bio of yourself that’s 160 characters or less. I settled on “Irish drummer, blogger, student, mischiefmaker and maker of killer pancakes”.
*Drummer*
I started drumming November 1st of ‘07 and haven’t looked back once. My current kit has served me 10 months and on the whole, I’m pretty happy. One of the cymbals needs replacing but I’m saving money at the moment, so it stays :P
*Blogger*
This is selfexplanatory, is it not? Trust Tommy here is my dominion of practicing the dark arts my (sometimes) eventful life.
*Student*
I’m a second year in Castletroy College. Plenty of friends and I’m enjoying the subjects loads. I’ve settled into secondary school so easily, one of Patrick’s friends commented that “Secondary school is suiting you too well!”
*Mischiefmaker*
Including insinuating Damien Mulley was a werewolf*, saying he’d also be good as (now that Tennant has announced he’s quitting) The 11th doctor *Took me about 20 mins to find that tweet
I am a drummer, and my work can be found on YouTube
About Trust Tommy
Trust Tommy is my blog which was set up in early 2008, which started off as a fun project for me, and has evolved into a community thing with me and some great friends I’ve made through blogging.
I irregularly blogged until August, and I began writing regularly after that. I also won ‘best newcomer’ at the Irish Blog Awards 2009 in Cork on February 21.

Greetings for another Limerickman. I’m exiled in Cork. I found you via
Head Rambles because I’m as old as he is and there’s talk of competition to become your virtual great great grandfather. I wouldn’t bother with him: he’s likely to go off being an author like Twenty Major.

@Omaniblog Haha, thanks. Don’t you usually have two sets of grandparents? :)
I think it’s fantastic that people older than 21 can embrace the internet as you do
November 29th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
That’s because people older than 21 invented the internet, Tommy.
November 29th, 2008 at 2:52 pm
Very true, but the person who invented Facebook wasn’t!
And anyway, these people are contesting being my “grandparents”, we have to make them feel young again!

welcome to the madness!

Thanks Tommy. Actually I think it’s the internet that’s embraced me. I don’t know where I’d be without it.

Hello!

Hey all :)

I’m amazed at how much you have achieved already and by the time your finished school at how much more you probally will have done.
I’m from Ireland too (well northern Ireland) and found it quite limiting but I suppose the Internet gives freedom to us all.
