Coal Mines In The News Again

Yes, we had some very good news out of China, 114 coal miners
saved, and some still missing, that the bad news, let hope
they to come out safe too.

Now, some very bad news, in the United States, in West Virginia,
25 coal miners have been killed after a huge explosion, at the
mine in Raleigh Country. This is the worst mining disaster in
the United States, for many years.

My heart go out to these families, who have lost member of their
family. Why? because I was born into a coal mining family, my
Father and Grandfather, were both coal miners. My home town
Port Talbot and my Country, Wales, in, United Kingdom, was build
on and by coal. I was lucky I did not work in the mines, like
My Father and Grandfather.

Its still one of the hardest and worst job a person can do
in the World. I take my hat off to them.
