Black Country Day is here again, I'd like to be the first to say hello to all them Brummie Blokes and Bostin Wenches, tek a stroll along the Cut, and grab some Snap.
Happy Black Country day ! Always find it odd the Black Country is called the Black Country there is actually a lot of beauty in the area we thought when we visited.
Under Dudley Castle right in middle of black country. A visit to the Black country museum is well worth the time spent ,where this trip can be taken from
Somewhere I have a video of a chain makers guild strike of the 1920's

Hi
Oops, best not repeat that heresy around there.
Black Country folk hate being referred to as Brummies.

I visited the Black Country Museum many years ago when I was training. If I recall, there is a fully working reconstructed Newcomen Engine there, which I found fascinating and therefore opted to do an assignment on it including the making of a working model (though not under steam). I still have it and can't bear to throw it away.
