      • That was my Mum’s favourite, IYE. As a child the miners coming off a 12-hour shift would sing it very softly as they walked home through the village at night – including her father (my grandad). The strength of those mining communities was something to behold. Men at their best, women too. I’d like to know the origin of all these memes, the one that gave birth to it all. Thanks anyway. Oh, and her village was one up from Treorchy.

        • My Great-Gran worked at a mine washing coal. Her husband died leaving her with five children, the youngest being my beloved Granfather. Pre 1914 war. No social welfare to speak of so it was off to the mines in Leigh, Lancs. My Grandfather had two elder brothers who were twins. They were both injured in the Great War. One was gassed and died a couple of years later. The other one had his legs blown off. He had a wooden leg as a result and considered it a trophy for his service to his country.

  1. 19. I like that sidecar in the foreground, looks as if it could be used as a bath. Maybe it is a bath, they were inventive in those days.

    JH: I can just see it now.
