    Nice area to work but hard and dangerous underground

    Hi Alistair. Cracking video mate, so interesting. Amazing that all these places are still here to explore. A brilliant little history lesson, thanks so much for taking us around. All the best mate 😀

    Really enjoyed that Alastair. I know it’s something a bit different but I love it.
    Really like the new scooter - I’d love one of those 😁👌♥️
    So sad to see the building left to rack and ruin in that last mine that closed, as they look of a good old age and it’s only been closed 25 years.

      @@PhilipOlsen11 Glad you enjoyed it Phil, most of the old workings at these two mining areas are protected now.
      The scooter replaced my KTM 1190 Adventure which was a bit of a handful to move about now that my mobility isn't quite what it was.
      I'm enjoying the scooter immensely 90mpg, easy 75mph cruising and 45lit storage under the seat👌 + Honda reliability and build quality👌
