  • still scabs about. remember 84-85.

  • Yes, we were there. The writing was on the wall for the last few pits in Northumberland. Now they're all gone. You're right, for some the wound will never heal. Solidarity isn't always what it might be. People forget to sing along sometimes.

  • Hi Tony. Sorry but we've no idea how to go on with this stuff. We just posted the video in the normal way and supposed it would work.

    Glad you like it, by the way. Your comment is much appreciated.
