My Husband The Coal Miner... NOT!

I grew up in a mining town in Central Queensland called Middlemount and come from a family of coal miners. My Poppy was a coal miner, and both my father and brother are both coal miners today.

Back in August 2008 Mark was lucky enough to be taken underground and get a small taste of what life is like for a coal miner.

He came above ground 'as black as the ace of spades'.

I had such a giggle when I asked him "What was it like?"

His reply... "I'M STICKING TO HYPNOTISM!"
