Tough times, hard times and sometimes happy times. I am glad I was a part of it all and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Thinking back to those days, not only did we lose our livelihoods and comrades, we lost a generation where friendship and compassion was felt not only in the mines, but in our clubs, pubs, towns and villages. A culture gone forever, now overtaken by greed and selfishness. God bless every man who ever breathed mine air and washed the backs free of sweat and toil. Until we meet again. Dr Paul Guy, Fitter, Langwith Colliery.
