I start my shift at 12 o'clock at night. I collect my token and hang it around my neck this is in case there is accident. I also carry my safty lamp down the mine. I have a buzzer to tell me when to go down the mine. We get carried to the seam in tubs. I have to crouch down because the roof is too small to stand up in. I use a windy pick drill to get the coal out. I give the coal to the putter and the putter pulls it away with his pony. I have my bait which is water, bread and jam. I finish my shift at 8 o' clock in the morning. I am very tired!
