This year I turned 24. It’s my second birthday since I’ve been travelling and this time I spent the day in a mine. I’m sure that’s not everyone's idea of a birthday treat but it was good fun. That’s actually a lie, from the minute I entered the place to the minute I left I was shitting myself. We had to crawl through holes barely big enough to fit in and avoid tumbling down cavities 50m deep. It was an experience none-the-less and I managed to stay alive so can’t grumble. I also got the chance to dress up in a village people costume for the second time in a week so that was worth the money alone.
With it being my birthday and all, Tom decided he would splash out and go for a present with a bit of a bang. This year for my birthday I got:
- 1 x Two minute fuse and detonator
- 1 x Bag of ammonium nitrate
- 1 x Stick of TNT
- 1 x The chance to play with dynamite
Good luck topping that for my 25th.
