Travel day today - drove from Pembrokeshire all the way across to Gloucester.
Stopped at the Big Pit on the way, an old coalmine that has been opened up to the public. Unfortunately we were too late in the day to go down the pit but we had a good look around their displays and info, and went into an audiovisual recreation of pit conditions that was actually very good. Don’t think I would enjoy being a coalminer.

| Coalming equipment - a toothed wheel that bludgeoned away at the pit wall - reminded me of the film Total Recall. |

| More coalmining equipment - sort of a big rock chainsaw. |
