Well it's been very hot'n'heavy welding up this commission! But such a lovely job for the great bunch of volunteers at Pleasley Pit in #NorthNotts.This sign, to celebrate the anniversary is made made up of nuts, bolts, drills & spanners - all from the old pit stores and the frame is fabricated from one of the original tunnel supports! If you have no knowledge of how #coalmining shaped the whole of #NEDerbyshire & #NorthNottinghamshire then this is the place to start your investigations!

Great to see Greenfinches thriving in the village of Elmton #NEDerbyshire
This stunning male was one of 18 ringed yesterday, along with 18 Goldfinches & a good no of other garden birds (80 was a fraction of total present)
Thanks @mohammerton@twitter.com & @JackieHammerton@twitter.com for their support
