black Friday at magpie mine

what a day , Had a ride up to Magpie mine in the peak district with my grandson Harvey he had never heard of it and the stories of it being haunted and was looking forward to it ,AS we got there another tog was leaving ,had a great chat with him nice chap he said don't worry about the black bull down on the path he's a soft as any think ,and he was even stroked him and Harvey took is photo with is iPhone , off we went  and was greeted by a great dark sky and clouds

 Harvey at the magpie mine a very excited young lad just up is street 

i took this thinking what a great time we where going to have here , had a spoke to soon 

  A bit of mono 

things where going great till a heard this scream ,Harvey was running round 

shouting granddad ,help me first thought was that bull chasing him what with him wearing that orange coat , it appears he was taking a photo of this 6ft hole with a grill over it is iPhone had dropped down the hole 

 which was a hopeless task to get it out ,calmed him down and said don't worry we welcome back with some some tools and get it out 

so one last photo and back home but called in at Caudwells mill for a offend a drink for Harvey

nice bit of cake as well

 that was it back home only to return to Magpie mine in the dark , head torches and some amazing gadgets what Harvey's dad and is mate Daz had made up to get is iPhone out of this 6ft shaft

just one shot i took while every one was busy get the phone 

and it was one happy little boy when is phone came up from the black depths of the shaft 

well hope you enjoyed the photos and the story but will certainly be going back to Magpie mine for some night photos 

 thanks for viewing and take care all
