                    Dave-- I can remember when nearly every village up here had one or more pits,they had some of the most friendly people you could meet,dam disgrace the way the pits were shut and all the miners just left to get on with it--even more of a disgrace when most of the pits were still full of coal----Dave

                      What was even worse was, the millions of pounds worth of machinery that's left down them all, just abandoned

                            What’s the crack though? Why did our corrupt government want them closing down? Btw I’m not been sarcastic I’m actually quite intrigued
