Further to my message about the Museum at Wakefield, I now understand that
the Government has allocated about £750,000 in a rescue package.
Whilst this is great news, I have a suspicion that this will not last that
long. Caphouse Colliery is still classed as a working mine and the same
regulations apply to it. This is necessary to enable them to conduct
underground tours. Qualified miners have to maintain and check the mine
daily to ensure absolute safety.
I reiterate my message - support it or lose it.
