Tinkering 

This is what an individual or a group does to define themselves as a tink or tinks. If they are tinkering about ie. something which they think is cool- there are those (usually the minority) which think they are being...tinks!
Tinkering includes cliquey activities such as constructing a photo wall in the 6th year common room out of very tinkish photos (depicting certain poses, though done in the spirit of fun, usually behind each jokey pose there is an sicko who thinks they are being cool, and look rather darn good). Also School dances and other sick School related events (School trips, shows...) fall under the category of tinkering.

Tinkering Mosey

When you get old and tinker with stuff while moseying about. Said like it's early 1900's New York street gangs. Like 'Fiddlin' Ben' but old and slowly doing nothing of the utmost importance.
I just know I'll be a tinkering mosey when I'm old, it's literally all I've ever wanted to do. Tinker with stuff moseying about; no deadlines... Then maybe, I'll finally be able to kill time, once and for all.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
