I knew a miner from Ashington. He said “best smell underground was the smell of someone peeling an orange. Worst smell was, someone having a shit on a shovel!”
I remember one bright spark who brought down a wide neck vacuum flask full of fish and chips with plenty of vinegar on it ...... imagine that smell running by you when your are trying to eat your half melted cheese butties ..... Trust me, he never dared do it again !
I’m from Ashington and still am living there. Proud to say I do.
Must be a chav then...
I went here as a child to explore my family heritage. Was such a great experience
Newbiggin lad living in Canada my mom still lives in a Pit house in Newbiggin where my dad worked
Come on Steve if you’re a Newbiggin lad it’s Mam not mom … you must’ve been in Canada for a long time 😂😂

Sounds like something a thick inbred from Ashghanistan would say, they're all stupid and vulgar like that...

No, they were nearby to each other but were separate pits.
