Donated :flowers:

Just think about the many enjoyable hours spent pottering about the site, especially not having to pony up for parking, ice-creams, chicken nuggets, face-painting and the like.

At the present time, the project team do not know whether the property will be transferred to the FOK charity. If the deal is not concluded, the donations will be returned. Gift aid will be operated when the donations are accepted and put towards the transfer of the headgear to the FOK.

It's great to see the total creeping up. I've donated and I just hope it will still be there when my daughter is old enough to explore the mines with me, just like I used to with my dad when I was a lad.

The week has run out, what is the next stage? Given that you have amassed a respectable sum, will they grant an extension for the fundraising?
