To continue the thread on old mine shafts which I know was some time ago, I post two web links where incidents, both in Scotland have led to fatalities. The second of the BBC links was some time ago but I think goes to remind us that they remain a very real risk! What are the odds of walking home from a night out and loosing your life caused by some relic feature of our industrial heritage? 1000000:1 or thereabouts! Maybe someone can work it out? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/glasgow_and_west/8545876.stm http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/edinburgh_and_east/7512905.stm Regards, RMack Robin Mackenzie Contaminated Land Co-ordinator [log in to unmask] Environment Service Perth and Kinross Council Pullar House 35 Kinnoull Street PERTH PH1 5GD Mob: 07810057566 Tel Direct Dial: 01738 476443 Fax: 01738 476410 Securing the future... - Improving services - Enhancing quality of life - Making best use of public resources.
