Fine work.Particularly relevant for me Bari. This week was the 111th anniversary of one of the most terrible disasters the mining world has ever known, that of the Pretoria Pit explosion in Westhoughton Bolton where I live. 344 men and boys lost their lives the week before Christmas. I see your drawing and pray for them.

Super drawing of the pit head gear Bari. Reminds me of the 17 years I spent down the pit.
