Nice one, I've specked a couple here and there, it's always amazing to just spot it sitting there on the ground.

Didnt realise that was still crown land in there ....dammit lol its just up the road from me and i never thought to look in there.
Nice example HTY that bit would be worthy of a polish and mount it on display.

I wouldn't want to go sleepwalking near that shaft.

Part 1 of 3 lucky I was there a the right place and time to save it

Mate like a lot of ppl I watch what you get up to and shudder a bit LOL, but I'll say this... the old timers had a certain devilry in them, a fugget attitude when as your name goes "hunting the yellow", you are a chip off their old block mate, born in the wrong era maybe, I tip my hat to you for the stuff you get up to, you are one of the few that truly walk in their footsteps (often literally)

And we want you to stay that way mate! Make sure you enter some in Find of the Month!

Hahaha yeah born 150 years too late lol

There is not many young people that do the kind of work and things I do

I totally respect the antics that you get up to, and you're a very original poster to this forum, but just make sure that you post the dangers and warnings to newbies mate. I ain't going down there!

you can only roll the dice so many times......

Yeah I know I do try to point out the dangers I'm not a stupid person when it comes to going down shafts. However I have seen others who have pulled out old timbers that supported unstable ground on their way down shafts I never do this because you just never know what it's holding. Generally speaking if you can move it with only 1 finger then I would make it safe but if you have to pull on it to drop it down the shaft in most cases it's holding something bigger from falling.
