I was a miner for 22 years until that nice Mrs Thatcher decided we were no longer required. I was a shotfirer in the mines. Also at the time I was working down the pit, I was a part time member of the mines rescue brigade, and also a Labour councillor on St. Helens town council for 8 years

After my last pit closed, my best friend and I, who was also a shotfirer started our own explosives business. It lasted less than 2 years . Together we started another business, sadly he died 10 years ago aged 49. That left me as the MD of the company which now employs 5 people including myself. It’s quite a niche market we are in, this is what we do

Business has not been great this last year, hence I’m sat behind my desk logged onto this forum. I am in negotiations at the moment with a company who want to buy us out. Hopefully it will come off. I can then think about retirement and become a 5 day member, grumpy old senior golfer, heaven! I’ve already qualified for the grumpy bit

Connor,
Thanks for the job you do, the thing to remember is without clean water life for all of us would be a lot more difficult, being able to just flush the loo is taken for granted!!!
Enjoy your golf, it makes up for all the less enjoyable things one has to do in life, and by the way you live in a loverly part of the country, I have often visited but not played a lot of golf down there.
