Thats very kind of you Mick. I am always interested in anything to do with coal mines as I spent 30 years in the pits, from Bank Hall in Burnley, Huncoat, Hapton Valley and Coventry Mine where I was involved in a gas explosion on Dec 10th 1982. 21 of us were very lucky to have survived. Its an experience that I dont ever want to go through again. I am hoping to get to Accy at the end of the month and shall be calling in the Railway.
