Brings back some good memories, although I was at Bilsthorpe, not Annesley. I left in 1989 and came to South Africa, never saw anything of the destruction at Bilsthorpe. What a great shame that it had to happen, but you'd be amazed at how many of us came out here and still work on the mines. Nowadays it's Platinum for me, the coal mines almost killed me. If anyone has any pics of Bilsthorpe colliery, please pass them onto me at dshortho@angloplat.com Thanks. Dave.
