Policing The Wilderness
There are two and a half of us working in this area. Two and a half cops in an area the size of Holland and Belgium together.
Get The Hell Out
My whole family worked in the mine. My dad, my step dad, and my mum. My grandfather still works there. He's taking care of closing the mine. I'm 23 now, but when I was about 15 I was a cleaner in the mine. It felt safe since my whole family was there.
There's Room At The Inn
I bought this hotel six years ago. It was cheap because everyone knew that the mine was closing down.
Broken Knees
I used to be a concrete worker, but I've just gone through knee surgery. They operated on me using spinal cord anaesthetics, and I thought that was a bit uncomfortable.
Comings And Goings
I was out of school at 15 and went out at sea for six years. Then I came here because my brother worked in the mine.
