    Magnificent.
    Educational experience for me.
    People are not the same wherever you go.
    I like Tom/Thomas(?). I am not sure I can spell his name right.
    I love his personality. He is down to earth humble, without persona mask, with a lot of kindness and humility.
    He is genuine and authentic.
    I enjoy listening to Tom. He speaks like a talking book. Figurative and metaphoric.
    I suspect he is very educated.
    I can learn from Tom.

    Lovely scenery again. Loved the sign 'let the dog see the rabbit' as it reminded me of my late father, one of his many sayings. You wouldn't get me down the mine for all the tea in China. Either Tom and his mates are very brave or very daft, or both.

    Hi Tom & Is., great to see another adventure. The rings are lovely & good you got to see the process of making them! Watching Tom going down the mine brought back memories for me from many years ago, I went down into Marble Arch caves before they were made into a tourist attraction. I used to know guys who went caving & they talked me into heading down the caves, narrow spaces barely body width & crawling on your hands & knees, it wasn't really for me but sure I did it. It is good to say you did these things even if you only do them once lol. I liked the wee dog doing the dog paddle he was lovely. I have a wee dog Sam he is 12, but he would be afraid of even paddling, I tried him a few times over the years. Looking forward to next week's episode...Love Rosemary..🙂

    • @LostInTransit
      @LostInTransit  2 года назад

      Gladstone (the dog) has had lots of practice in the sea. My sister would coax him in as a puppy to try and get him used to it early. The mine was certainly an experience! i have always wanted to see what they would be like in there as i have always grown up around them. very glad to get the chance to get inside one, but i'm also very glad i don't have to go deep inside one every day for work like they used to.

      I found the quote, it sounds pretty crazy, haha "But, when storms are at their height, when the ocean hurls mountain after mountain of water on the cliffs, then the noise is terrific; the roaring heard down here in the mine is so inexpressibly fierce and awful, that the boldest men at work are afraid to continue their labour. All ascend to the surface, to breathe the upper air and stand on the firm earth: dreading, though no such catastrophe has ever happened yet, that the sea will break in on them if they remain in the caverns below."

    Great to see the stages of ring making and why that bumpy pattern is made , to reflect the landscape. So good to have something meaningful for your labours . Also living in Cornwall you just have to go down a tin mine once to understand a little of what they are like. It must have been so scary for the workers in bygone times without any health and safety rules and the utter blackness all about if your candle or lamp went out. Unimaginable hard and dangerous work really.

I used to work at Wearmouth Colliery which is where Sunderland's Stadium of Light now stands. We used to go up to 10 miles out under the North Sea, so far out in fact we used to have to travel via underground trains and even conveyor belts. I have some photos from my time underground so I'll post them on Instagram and give you a tag 👍
