Thanks for the comments folks
. This shot was published as a half page (tabloid) in the Newcastle Journal a few days ago which was good, and it has some relevance to me as I went to college nearby (in Ashington) when there were still 5 deep mines within a few miles. I used to drink with trainee Mine Deputies, some of who are now being made redundant at Ellington. Maybe not such a bad thing as most of the people I've spoken to are looking forward to spending the rest of their working lives in daylight, even though they may have to travel to find work.
